Sob o viés dos Estudos da Tradução, esse projeto tem por objetivo analisar a tradução intersemiótica das personagens Alice, Gato de Cheshire, Coelho Branco e Rainha de Copas. Tendo em vista esse objetivo, serão utilizadas as abordagens de Charles Peirce (1839) e Júlio Plaza (2001) para elucidar a reconstrução intersemiótica das personagens por meio das relações entre as tríades sígnicas icônicas, indiciais e simbólicas que a compõem. Ademais, também será examinado o impacto da disneyficação, segundo Alan Bryman (2004) e Janet Wasko (2001), na realização da adaptação fílmica e o impacto que esta possui tanto para o texto de partida, quanto para o público de chegada.

The purpose of my dissertation is to conduct an intertextual study of two fantasy texts — Alice in Wonderland by Victorian author Lewis Carroll, and Stardust by postmodern fantasy author Neil Gaiman — and their filmic re-visionings by Tim Burton and Matthew Vaughn respectively. In scrutinising these texts, drawing on insights from feminist, children’s literature and intertextual theorists, the actions of ‘growing up’ and ‘falling down’ are shown to be indicative of a paradoxical becoming of the text’s central female protagonists, Alice and Yvaine. The social mechanisms of the Victorian age that educate the girl-child into becoming accepting of their domestic roles ultimately alienate her from her true state of being. While she may garner some sense of importance within the imaginary realms of fantasy narratives, as these female protagonists demonstrate, she is reduced to the position of submissive in reality – in ‘growing up’, she must assume a ‘fallen down’ state in relation to the male. / English Studies / M.A. (English)
