A obra gideana compõe-se de quatro diálogos “socráticos” em que Gide faz uma defesa da “homossexualidade”, ou melhor, de uma das várias performances dessa: a pederastia, em seu molde clássico/helênico. A fim de lograr em nosso empreendimento, valemo-nos, a um só tempo, da Desconstrução derridiana e dos Estudos Queer. Fez-se aqui uso de questões pontuais da Desconstrução derridiana para os Estudos de Tradução: a desconstrução da matriz logocêntrica dos Estudos de Tradução, a colocação em xeque da “fidelidade” ao “original” e, por fim, a questão da tradução enquanto acontecimento/jogo performático e double bind. Quanto aos Estudos Queer, buscou-se inicialmente certa elucidação acerca de noções básicas: sexualidade, sexo, gênero, orientação sexual, papel social de gênero e identidade de gênero, haja vista serem essas ensejadoras, ainda hoje, de grandes equívocos. Trouxemos ainda à baila um breve histórico dos referidos estudos, bem como alguns conceitos basilares: heteronormatividade, misoginia, homofobia e performatividade de gênero. Por fim, deitamos a pergunta: “Corydon queer?”, a fim de dar a conhecer os poucos trabalhos levados a efeito no que concerne ao “queer em tradução” e, outrossim, contextualizar, não anacrônico, a obra de Gide junto à problemática queer. Devido ao ineditismo da pesquisa, um leque se abre para posteriores trabalhos acerca do “queer em tradução”, bem como acerca do Corydon, quer seja nos Estudos de Tradução, quer seja nos Estudos Literários, quer seja nos Estudos Queer. __________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT / In this dissertation, that is original regarding the conjugation of Translation Studies and Queer Studies, we proceeded to an analysis of the translation of the introduction, as well as the first and second parts of the only survivals of the work Corydon (1924), by André Gide, into Brazilian Portuguese: the first one done by Oriente Silveira (1969), and the other by Hamílcar de Garcia (1971). This Gide’s work is composed of four 'socractic' dialogues where Gide makes a defence of 'homosexuality'; in fact, one of its many facets: pederasty, in its classic/Hellenic mode. In order to reach our aims, we used Derrida's Deconstruction and Queer Studies. Punctual issues were brought: a deconstruction of the logocentric matrix of Translation Studies; to question the concept of 'fidelity' to the 'original'; lastly, the issue of translation as event/performance and double bind. Regarding Queer Studies, there was an attempt to clarify certain basic ideas: sexuality, gender, sexual orientation, social gender roles and gender identity, as these are the source of many misunderstandings up to today. Unfortunately, some of these are still found wanting and can provoke debate as, for instance, sexual orientation, these are shown to be indispensable for a better understanding of the intricate lines of Queer Studies, and likewise, of this very dissertation. Next, there was a brief overview of the history of the aforementioned studies, as well as some of its basic concepts: heteronormativity, misogyny, homophobia and gender performativity. Lastly, the question 'Corydon queer?' is asked. Due to the originality of this research, a wide range of possibilities is opened for future researches on “queer in translation” as well as on Corydon, whether in Translations Studies, Literary Studies or Queer Studies.

For the boarding of his ideas, I analyze four of his main historiographic works, which had been produced in Brazil and in the Great Colombia. Abreu e Lima contributed to the construction of the American Continent inside and outside the country. The decades before Iberian America’s political independence had been marked by the political thinking transition, the State’s modernization and the sprouting of the idea of Nation. During this period, it had appeared workmanships and intellectuals worried in thinking the continent, itself and inside of the capitalist world in expansion. Literature and the historiography had been two instruments to think the American identity. In the years he lived in the Great Colombia (1819 - 1931), Abreu e Lima produced a study on the last years of Simon Bolivar’s government. In his return to Brazil, in 1832, he participated of one of the main centers of thinking production in the country: the Brazilian Historical and Geographical Institute (IHGB), established in 1838. He was a fellow of the Institute between 1839 and 1844, where he was present in the first discussion about division into periods on the incipient Brazilian historiography. In 1844, he left the Institute after serious misunderstandings with Januário da Cunha and Adolph Varnhagen. Based on this environment and on the elect workmanships, this work seeks to understand some ideas of this author. _______________________________________________________________________________ RESUMEN / El objetivo de la tesina Abreu e Lima: una lectura sobre Brasil es analizar la trayectoria intelectual de José Inácio de Abreu e Lima (1796 – 1869) entre 1828 y 1844.

O estudo, utilizando fontes primárias e algumas biografias do político liberal, refaz este percurso demonstrando as sutis armadilhas que o gênero autobiográfico carrega e as suas problemáticas como fonte histórica: os esquecimentos, as lacunas e as contradições. Desta fonna, revela uma outra dimensão desta trajetória que não foi valorizada na autobiografia: a sua atuação como empresário no projeto de navegação, comércio e colonização que implementou na região do Mucuri (nordeste da província de Minas Gerais), entre os anos de 1847 e 1860, a qual desvelou os vínculos existentes entre política e negócios como uma prática do liberalismo / Abstract: This thesis analyzes the document (a general letter) from Theophilo Benedicto Ottoni to the voters of Minas Gerais State in 1860, in which, within the benefits of silence and privileging the political dimension, he built a coherence based path and, at the same time, his own image that he wanted to be registered in history. The study, using primary sources and some biographies ofthe liberal politician, it remakes this path demonstrating the subtle traps that the autobiographical gender carries and its problems as a historical source: the forgetfulness, the gaps and the contradictions. In this way, it reveals another dimension of this path that was not recognized in the autobiography: his perfonnance as an entrepreneur in the navigation, trade and colonization project that he implemented in the area of Mucuri (northeast of the province of Minas Gerais), fonn 1847 to 1860, in which showed the existent links between politics and businesses as a liberalism practice." / Doutorado / Doutor em Filosofia

James Erith, a freeholder of the country of Kent, was one of the “1820 Settlers" who emigrated to the Cape and were settled mainly in the Zuurveld in the present district of Albany. This investigation was prompted by the fact that though he was by no means the settler to suffer misfortune and injustice, he was the only proprietor of a small party who eventually secured compensation. The case was the case of James Erith but the initiative and persistence was that of his wife, Jane Erith, who made in all five voyages spread over twelve years, before she secured some at least of the ends she sought and the family settled in Cape Town. The Eriths fought their case with the respective Colonial Offices for twelve years in all, and in the case of the Colonial Office, London, confronted no less than four Secretaries of State in five successive Cabinets. In the course of their struggle the Eriths received (a) the balance of their deposit; (b) cash compensation for cattle stolen by the Xhosa, and in the fina1 arbitration in 1832 the sum of £500 cash. James Erith, master baker, remains a rather shadowy figure, sharp-sighted to his own interest, querulous and not very effective. The triumph of 1832 was in the main the triumph of Jane, his wife, an amateur and robust Portia. Shrewd, tenacious, deft in argument this importunate woman knew how to stand her ground; there can have been few women who secured passage on a naval vessel and then allowed the Admiralty to submit its account to the Colonial Office. How the Eriths subsisted between their eviction from Waaye Plaats in 1823 and the arbitration award of 1832, has not been established. On occasion in London Mrs. Erith stayed with the Rev. R. Stewarts, Rutland House, Black Heath Road in Greenwich: in Cape Town it is believed that Erith plied his old trade. When he died there, in 1869 at the age of seventy nine, he left a house and three cottages to his daughter Ellen: mortgaged property in the district of Caledon, to his son-in-law George Budge : a house and three mortgaged properties in Simon’s Town to his daughter Anne Budge. He left an income of £24 per annum to his daughter Jane Moodie, widow of the late John Powell. The records used in this study, in addition to those printed in Theal, were the series C.O. 48 from the Public Record Office, London, now available on microfilm in the Cory Library at Rhodes University and records of the District of Albany in the Archives, Cape Town. The investigation has, it is thought, thrown new light on the background to the emigration scheme of 1819, on the mishandling of the Settlers in the Zuurveld after their arrival in the Cape, and on the punctilious attention to detail given by the Colonial Office, London. While it is true that the interests of the Eriths were probably smothered in the Tory endeavour to damp down the attack on Somerset in l826-1827, the Secretaries of State are by no means discredited by this analysis. It sasys much for any pattern of administration that in the thick of the Reform Bill crisis, the efforts of a single obscure member of Parliament, Mr. J O Briscoe, could secure a final arbitration award.

Sir Edwin Lutyens and Miss Gertrude Jekyll were part of the 'Art's and Crafts' movement, which advocated the use of local techniques and materials. They grew up separately, both in the Surrey country-side and both among creative people. Jekyll later worked with Edward Hudson (the author of 'Country Life') who persuaded her to be a garden designer . Lutyens was inspired first by the architecture of Surrey (mostly that of Norman Shaw), then by his friend, Herbert Baker, at architectural school, and lastly, by his long - time partner Jekyll. Munstead Wood, Surrey, England, was the partners' first project and it embodies nearly all of their ideals; the natural and indigenous use of flowers and plants, with an ordered colour scheme ; graded colour schemes without discord; the use of entirely local materials ; the sole use of local craftsmen and local techniques; a garden of 'rooms'; the intergration of architecture and garden design. A revival of interest in the partners work has helped to recreate some of the lost gardens of Jekyll. This interest has in turn put a spotlight on the ideals employed by the partners. Their wide influence has also produced many great buildings and gardens, most notably through the work of Sir Herbert Baker in South Africa. The Union Buildings are a perfect example of Baker's work, and much of it has the stamp of Lutyens' style and ideals. Through my own interest in Lutyens and Jekyll I have created my own Jekyll-style border in Grahamstown, Eastern Cape, to try and prove that her ideals can be translated into climates other than that of England. In this experiment, I succeeded in using indigenous South African plants and flowers with a colour scheme in the style of Jekyll, proving that the ideals to which she aspired could be applied in other countries.

This thesis examines a selection of verses taken from the Urdu divan of Mirza Asadullah Khan Ghalib. Ghalib is considered by many to be the preeminent writer of the classical Urdu ghazal (circa 1750-1850). Although the examination is restricted to Ghalib's verse, the problem it investigates is broader in nature and involves questions which some aspects of the ghazal raise with respect to the reader's involvement. An essential feature of the ghazal form is the fact that, although the ghazal poem consists of a set of couplets, each couplet of a ghazal is itself a complete text with respect to its content The question, then, is "how does the reader become involved in a form limited to two lines of text?" This thesis discusses the question from a narratological perspective: the couplet involves the reader by telling a story. The narrative of the couplet differs from what one normally thinks of as narrative in that the significance of its plot is derived, not from a series of episodes arranged in chronological order, but from a thematic continuity which links couplet to couplet within the tradition as a whole. The world of the ghazal is inhabited by a few characters, the principal being the lover and the beloved, whose behaviour and attitudes are determined largely by a set of well-defined conventions. The characters who appear in the individual couplet are already familiar from the dramas to which these characters have been subjected in previous readings of other couplets. However, unlike the characters in a traditional novel whose histories connect a great variety of events within a chronological framework, the couplet is extremely limited in term of the number of chronological connections it can establish. The depiction of time in the ghazal is radically different from the often elaborate histories presented in forms such as the novel. The world of the ghazal is merely suggested. Consequently, the reader's role in reconstructing the world of the text is of particular importance in compact forms such as that of the ghazal. The contention of this thesis is that the restrictions imposed by the couplet on plot structure has been compensated for by the cultivation of a narrative style in the ghazal text which often forces the reader to become aware of the process of discovering the drama of the text. The first chapter begins with an introduction to the thesis, and is followed by an introduction to the formal features of the ghazal text and some of the important themes of the tradition. The second chapter presents a review of critical writings in English on the Urdu ghazal. The third chapter presents a discussion of methodology. In this chapter I use Peter Rabinowitz' analysis of the reader's beliefs in my attempt to define what I mean by the reader's involvement in the world of the text. According to Rabinowitz, a fictional work invites its reader to pretend that its plot is a historical account, even though the reader knows that the world of the text is imaginary. To account for the reader's dual role, Rabinowitz divides the reader's beliefs into what he calls the "authorial audience" and the narrative audience." Briefly, the authorial audience can be viewed as the competent reader, the one who possesses the required knowledge to understand the text, to decipher its allusions, but who knows the world of the text is a fiction. The narrative audience sees the fictional text as a description of events that "really" happened. My investigation of the reader's attempt to discover the world of the text is from the point of view of the narrative audience. The third chapter attempts to apply Rabinowitz' views to some general features of the plot structure in the ghazal text. The fourth and final chapter examines the ways in which the ghazal text forces the reader to become aware of the process of discovering the world of the text. / Arts, Faculty of / Asian Studies, Department of / Graduate

Albert Roussel, a contemporary of Ravel and Debussy, composed nine chamber works which include the flute. His general musical style as well as his use of the flute in these works is discussed in this lecture recital.

It is the purpose of this study to explore several of Edwin Arlington Robinson’s poems in order to show the poet’s force of language and prosody and to reveal as much as possible his total poetic artistry. The poems are representative of his familiar, shorter Tilbury Town portraits and are taken from his early, middle, and late periods. An honest appraisal will be made to determine the true worth of the poetry, and an attempt will be made to show that Edwin Arlington Robinson deserves a respected position in modern American letters.

The study of James Parton Haney is threefold in purpose. The first purpose is to study the life and educational background of Haney in order to gain an understanding of the man and his educational objectives. A second purpose is to gain an insight into Haney's philosophy of education, and the third purpose is to examine the available writings of Haney in an attempt to analyze his philosophy of industrial arts as a phase of general education.
