    Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Letras/Inglês e Literatura Correspondente, Florianópolis, 2007The aim of the present study is to analyse how issues of Albanian national identity are portrayed in Ismail Kadaré's novel Broken April (Prilli i Thyer), and how such features have been appropriated and translated onto the screen into a Northeastern Brazilian context. I depart from the premise that, even though Brazilian elements are indeed shown in the film, the non existence of the Kanun in Brazil, and the use of narrative techniques different from the ones employed in the novel render the story of the blood feuds in the film more universal than the genuinely Albanian reality depicted in the novel. In sum, the appropriation transcends the Albanian reality into a universal context, showing, at the same time, elements which are typical of the Brazilian culture.O objetivo do presente estudo é analisar como questões sobre a identidade nacional Albanesa são retratadas no romance Abril Despedaçado (Prilli i Thyer), de Ismail Kadaré, e como tais questões foram apropriadas e traduzidas para a tela num contexto Nordestino-Brasileiro. O estudo parte do princípio que, embora elementos tipicamente Brasileiros sejam mostrados no filme, a não existência do Kanun no Brasil, e o uso de técnicas narrativas diferentes das empregadas no romance ajudam a deixar a história das brigas de família no filme com um aspecto mais universal do que a realidade genuinamente Albanesa representada na romance. Em suma, a apropriação transcende a realidade Albanesa para um contexto mais universal, sem deixar de mostrar também elementos típicos da cultura Brasileira

    Variations on the Author

    “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

    In modern literary studies, the use of modern critical approaches based on the sciences of linguistics and style has become widespread, as tools and methods of criticism and analysis, in light of the separate indications and cues of critics about the inability of traditional rhetoric to penetrate and comprehend the areas of art in modern literature.

This study highlights and analyses how the different ways in which the classical Arabic rhetorical terminologies and styles were utilized and applied throughout the novel

    Get PDF
    Kajian ini menganalisis dua buah novel terpilih karya Siti Zainon Ismail, iaitu Pulau Renik Ungu (1995) dan Delima Ranting Senja (2009). Analisis dibuat dengan menggunakan teori intertekstualiti yang diperkenalkan oleh Julia Kristeva (1980). Tiga prinsip utama yang terdapat dalam teori intertekstualiti, iaitu prinsip transformasi, prinsip modifikasi dan prinsip ekspansi. Permasalahan kajian bertitik tolak daripada kecenderungan Siti Zainon Ismail berkarya dengan merujuk sumber-sumber asalnya (hipoteks) untuk disesuaikan ke dalam karyanya yang baharu (hiperteks). Hal ini berlaku kerana hubungan peribadi dan persekitaran sangat mempengaruhi kepengarangan Siti Zainon Ismail. Objektif kajian ini bertujuan untuk mengenal pasti sumber daripada hipoteks, mengaplikasikan prinsip-prinsip daripada teori intertekstualiti dan menilai faktor-faktor yang menyebabkan pengarang mengaplikasikan ketiga-tiga prinsip tersebut. Metodologi kajian yang diguna pakai adalah kajian kepustakaan dan temu bual. Dapatan kajian pula membuktikan bahawa Siti Zainon Ismail berkarya dengan merujuk sumber hipoteks dan melaksanakan proses transformasi sama ada secara formal atau berbentuk abstrak seperti kerja pemindahan dan penjelmaan episod untuk memperkukuh makna hipoteks. Terdapat juga proses-proses lain seperti penyesuaian, penukaran, peluasan dan pengembangan atau pembaikan daripada teks asal. Hal ini membolehkan teks asal berubah kepada bentuk baharu sama ada aspek kandungan ataupun pemerian plot penceritaan. Kesimpulannya, melalui pengaplikasian ketiga-tiga prinsip daripada teori intertekstualiti ini membuktikan bahawa pengarang berjaya mengolah karya hiperteksnya, iaitu menjadi sebuah karya yang mapan daripada pelbagai aspek seperti plot, tema, watak dan bahasa sehingga dapat menarik minat khalayak menghabiskan pembacaan terhadap karya tersebut
