A.J. Potter (1918-1980): The career and creative achievement of an Irish composer in social and cultural context
No full textA. J. Potter (1918-1980) was one of the most significant composers working in Ireland in the latter part of the twentieth century. This thesis surveys his career and creative achievement, which have not hitherto been subjected to detailed scrutiny. The opening chapter presents a biographical overview: its first part outlines the circumstances of Potter's childhood and early adulthood, including his studies with Vaughan Williams at the Royal College of Music in London, his period of service in the British Army during World War II and his subsequent three-year sojourn in Africa; the second continues the narrative from 1951, when he settled permanently in Ireland, up to his death in 1980. In addition to detailing events of note in his private and professional life, an important subsidiary focus of this section is to depict the impoverished and culturally marginalised nature of Irish musical life at this period and describe the frustrations that these conditions engendered for the composer and his contemporaries. The remaining chapters are devoted to an examination of Potter's major works. Chapter 2 considers four student compositions that were written or conceived in the late 1930s and were subsequently revised when he resumed composing in 1949 after a creative silence of over a decade. Chapter 3 is divided in two parts: the first delineates the salient features of his mature creative aesthetic, while the second provides an account of his later orchestral works. The remaining chapters explore his choral music and stage works, which, in addition to the scores previously described, constitute his most noteworthy achievements

Characterization in J. K. Rowling’s "Harry Potter"
No full textBakalaura darbs “Harija tēla izveide Dž. K. Roulingas darbos Harijs Poters un Jauktasiņu Princis un Harijs Poters un Nāves Dāvesti” ir pētījums par modernās bērnu literatūras žanru, kas ietver galvenā varoņa Harija Potera tēla izveides analīzi mijiedarbībā ar citiem tēliem – draugiem, padomdevējiem, galvenajiem pretiniekiem un kontrastējošiem tēliem. Šis pētījums ir veikts, lai pierādītu hipotēzi, ka Harijs Poters nav pārvērtēts viduvējas bērnu literatūras produkts, kā arī lai pierādītu, ka izprast mitoloģiskās atsauces un mīklas, ko Dž. K. Roulingas dinamiskie un trīsdimensiju tēli ietver, ir patiess izaicinājums.The Bachelor’s Paper “Characterization of Harry in J. K.

The following research has been done in order to prove the hypothesis that Harry Potter is not a product of overrated average Children Literature, and it is a challenge to understand the mythological allusions and riddles that J. K. Rowling’s dynamic and three-dimensional characters contain
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
