A Tradução da fala do personagem Hagrid para o português brasileiro e português europeu no livro Harry Potter e a Pedra Filosofal: um estudo baseado em corpus
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Estudos da Tradução, Florianópolis, 2010Este trabalho abarca a interseção entre Estudos da Tradução e Literatura Infanto-Juvenil, mais especificamente estuda a tradução do livro Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone e suas traduções para o português brasileiro e europeu, ambas intitulada de Harry Potter e a Pedra Filosofal. A hipótese inicial informando este estudo era que as tradutoras optaram pela redução de grande parte das marcas dialetais, utilizando, em suas traduções, transposições da variante falada para a escrita através de marcas de oralidade, indo ao encontro do que Krings (1986) chama de estratégia da redução e Klingberg (1986) considera uma padronização. Para verificar essa hipótese, foram criadas categorias para analisar marcas dialetais e marcas de oralidade no discurso escrito utilizando-se metodologias dos estudos baseados em corpus. Mais especificamente usou-se um corpus paralelo bilíngue o qual é um subcorpus do PEPCo - Portuguese-English Parallel Corpus (FERNANDES; BARTHOLAMEI JR., 2009). Após a análise de dados verificou-se que o padrão preferencial da tradutora portuguesa é dar uma maior ênfase à marcação da oralidade em relação à tradutora brasileira, embora nenhuma delas tenha optado por traduzir o dialeto do texto-fonte por um dialeto do texto-alvo em suas respectivas traduções

Variations on the Author
No full text“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

Voucher privatization with investment funds : an institutional analysis
No full textCommon wisdom among post-socialist reformers has beento use voucher investment funds to provide the corporate governance needed to restructure newly privatized enterprises after mass privatization efforts. The idea has been that mass privatization would spread the ownership too wide and make corporate governance difficult. The author examines the likely institutional behavior of voucher funds and the possible effects of their development on a transition economy. Since most policy advice has been in favor of voucher privatization with investment funds, the author can be seen as playing the devil's advocate, but his argument is institutional, not statistical. Policymaking requires insight and foresight into how institutions will tend to function. He concludes that voucher funds will introduce a bias in the economy away from the real industrial sector toward an ersatz"financial sector"that will have little if any positive financial role but will be well-protected by friendly regulators. One long-term consequence of voucher privatization with investment funds, according to this view, is a de facto"industrial policy"of real sector decapitalization in favor of short-term rent-seeking by fund managers through board sinecures and lucrative side deals with portfolio companies and through financial market manipulation and paper entrepreneurship in the"financial sector."Without strong corporate governance from the funds and without stable ownership of their own, many enterprise managers will exploit the post-socialist version of the"separation of ownership and control"to grab what they can in the form of salaries, bonuses, perquisites, and side deals. The most likely results of the strategy of voucher privatization with investment funds may be a two-sided grab fest by fund managers and enterprise managers -- together with the accompanying drift, stagnation, and decapitalization of the privatized industrial sector.Economic Adjustment and Lending,Payment Systems&Infrastructure,International Terrorism&Counterterrorism,Economic Theory&Research,Banks&Banking Reform,International Terrorism&Counterterrorism,Banks&Banking Reform,Economic Adjustment and Lending,Environmental Economics&Policies,Economic Theory&Research
