In this paper the changes that occur in the translation of initial sentence elements regarding clause element function as well as thematic structure are analyzed. The first part of the aim is to investigate how these functions and structures change in translation. The second part of the aim is to analyze the potential risk of syntactic interference from using thematic or word order solutions that are too close to the SL or too uncommon in the TL. To answer this the source text and translated text were divided by individual sentences and categorized by word order, thematic structure and differences between ST and TT. The results were compared to previous research by mainly Altenberg (1998) and Hasselgård (1998), with additional use of primarily Bohnacker (2010), Munday (2012) and Tirkkonen-Condit (2014) for further definitions of syntactical interference. The quantitative results suggested that there may be syntactical interference. This can be found mainly in the lack of ASV→SV word order structures, possibly due to a fear of deviating too far from the ST structure, and by an abundant use of formal subject (det), due to overcompensating by using TL specific structures that are perceived as common. However, it is not easy to find examples of translationese in syntax from only a cursory glance and the in-depth qualitative analysis was necessary for this conclusion.

A presente pesquisa investiga as escolhas temáticas de textos jornalísticos, especificamente de reportagens, que partem do mesmo evento, mas que são produzidos e publicados em linhas editoriais distintas. Nosso objetivo geral, com este estudo, é proporcionar subsídios para que sejam superados paradigmas ainda baseados na dicotomia texto e gramática na Escola Básica, como também colaborar para a promoção de um ensino mais crítico e reflexivo, a fim de que os estudantes possam atuar em sociedade com autonomia. Para isso, elegemos como corpus duas reportagens de veículos ideologicamente antagônicos: o jornal A Nova Democracia e a revista Veja. Considerando que o contexto de cultura e o contexto de situação são determinantes para as escolhas linguísticas dos textos, examinamos a organização temática dos períodos que compõem as reportagens. Como referencial teórico, elegemos a Gramática Sistêmico-Funcional (GSF) de Halliday (1978; 1994; 2004), centrando-se especificamente na função Tema, pertencente à Estrutura Temática na Metafunção Textual, um dos níveis de análise da GSF, que organiza a oração como mensagem e sistematiza os significados ideacionais. O objetivo específico deste trabalho é, portanto, analisar até que ponto as diferenças ideológicas afetam as escolhas temáticas dos textos. Com essa finalidade, dedicamo-nos à análise dos Temas Ideacionais e seus significados, pois são eles os responsáveis por indicar de que maneira os autores priorizaram as informações nos períodos que compõem e organizam as mensagens contidas nos textos. Como método de pesquisa, anotamos e classificamos manualmente cada um dos dados quantitativos e, em seguida, passamos a uma análise qualitativa dos Temas assinalados. Os resultados apontam que ambos os textos apresentam uma alta frequência de Temas Ideacionais Participantes, mas semanticamente distintos. Quanto aos Temas Ideacionais Processos e Circunstâncias, eles evidenciam discrepâncias sintáticas e semânticas significativas, que revelam representações diferentes dos narradores frente ao mesmo evento. / This research investigates the thematic choices of journalistic texts, specifically news, talking about the same event, but which are produced and published in different editorial lines. Our main goal with this study is to provide information so that paradigms still based on the dichotomy text and grammar at the basic school can be overcome, as well as to contribute to the promotion of a more critical and reflective teaching, so that students can socially act with autonomy. That is the reason why we have chosen as corpus two articles of ideologically antagonistic vehicles: the newspaper A Nova Democracia and Veja magazine. Considering that the context of culture and the context of situation are crucial to the language choices of the texts, we examine the thematic organization of the periods that make up the stories. The theoretical framework we have chosen is the systemic-functional grammar (SFG) of Halliday (1978; 1994; 2004), specifically focusing on the Theme function, which belongs to the Thematic Structure in Textual Metafunction, one of the levels of analysis of the SFG, which organizes the sentence as message and systematizes the ideational meanings. The specific objective of this study is therefore to analyze the extent to which ideological differences affect the thematic choices of texts. Having this goal in mind, we have dedicated ourselves to the analysis of Ideational Themes and their meanings because they are responsible for indicating the way how the authors prioritized information in the periods that make up and organize the messages contained in the texts. As a research method, we have noted and manually classified quantitative data. The results show that both texts have a high frequency of participant but semantically distinct Ideational Themes. As for processes and circumstances Ideational Themes, they show significant syntactic and semantic discrepancies, which reveal different representations of narrators facing the same event.

The French composer Henri Dutilleux (born 1916) was largely influenced by the French writer Marcel Proust's (1871-1922) novel A la recherche du temps perdu. This monumental work is regarded by many critics as one of the most important novels of all times. The narrator, a parallel figure of Proust himself, experiences an involuntary memory of his childhood. An involuntary memory which is aroused in the narrator runs like a thread through the novel. This study traces how Dutilleux's style of writing was influenced by the concept of memory. Proust's concept of involuntary memory is realised in the sonata through "musical beacons". Dutilleux's composition techniques which relate to the concept of memory involve the following markers: • mirror images such as fan-like or melismatic figures • prominence of the tritone • focal notes or chords • principle of circularity • obsessional chords. A related aspect of Proust's concept of memory is the instability and inconsistency of the human personality as it is portrayed in his novel. In this study it is indicated how Dutilleux's croissance progressive composition technique may be likened to the inconsistency of personalities. It involves the concept of thematic evolutions which usually permutate from a core cell. This technique is characteristic of his adult work, and he applied it consciously for the first time in his First Symphony (1951). However, he acknowledges that he had used the technique unconsciously before. Dutilleux's Sonata for Oboe and Piano (1947) is an early work which was written during his student years for competition purposes. He does not regard the sonata as representative of his adult writing style. Thematic permutations of a core cell in the first movement are indicated in all three movements of the work. The analysis of musical thematic structure shows that aspects of Dutilleux's adult writing style were already present in his early work. / Thesis (D.Mus.)--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2006.

Those responsible for their professional education - including professors and Business Schools - have faced uncertain and complex contexts. The validity of management education programs has been increasingly questioned. This study aims to investigate the changes in the Business Administration field in Brazil after the 90 s; more specifically, it focuses on the knowledge involved in management education and on the agents and their respective institutions that provide this knowledge. This includes specifically the activities of professors and researchers engaged in Master's and Doctoral programs in Business Administration at Higher Education Institutions affiliated with the government agency called CAPES, a foundation whose central purpose is to coordinate efforts to improve the quality of higher education in Brazil. Therefore, this research was conducted based on the analysis of the structure of the field of these professors and researchers in Business Administration in Brazil after the 90 s. Pierre Bourdieu s theoretical and methodological apparatus was used due to the possibility of relational understanding of social space, where the agents - whose power is asymmetrically distributed - occupy and fight over positions. Several studies demonstrate the predominance of American authors in the Brazilian scientific production, which is, therefore, basically functionalist. On the other hand, around the 90 s, the American hegemony became refuted, especially by researchers who started to demonstrate greater intellectual independence to that traditional mainstream epistemology. This emerging group has been inspired by the Critical Management Studies (CMS), originated in the UK. The conclusion of the present study allowed the understanding of part of the oppositions and affinities that organize this field, its transformations, and the strategies of two rival groups of agents, constituting the arena of the organizational studies. On the other hand, although weakly adherent of the 'new entrants' denomination, the changes that took place after the 90 s can be said to be easily identified and often institutionalized. This study also revealed the intensified debates and systematization towards the construction of a particular epistemology of this discipline, which not only contribute to the improvement of the administrative theory, but also provides means to promote the future development of Business Administration. / O contexto da financeirização, da economia global e correspondentes empresas classe mundial , invocam constantes desafios aos gestores do século XXI. Os responsáveis por sua formação incluindo aí professores e Escolas de Negócios deparam-se, de forma análoga, com cenários complexos e incertos. Questionamentos sobre a validade dos modelos de formação de gestores são frequentes neste momento. O presente trabalho se propõe a investigar as transformações ocorridas no campo de estudos em Administração no Brasil pós anos 90. Mais exatamente, interessa-se pelo conhecimento que responde pela formação do gestor. Os agentes e respectivas instituições - que produzem este conhecimento constituem o foco da pesquisa. Consideramos como tal a atividade dos professores/ pesquisadores alocados nos programas de Mestrado e Doutorado dos cursos de Administração das Instituições de Ensino Superior (IES) que se filiam obrigatoriamente ao organismo governamental denominado Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES), responsável por melhorias no ensino superior no Brasil. A pesquisa foi construída, portanto, em torno da análise da estrutura do campo desses professores/ pesquisadores em Administração no Brasil pós anos 90. Optamos pela utilização do aparato teórico-metodológico de Pierre Bourdieu pela possibilidade de apreensão relacional do espaço onde os agentes cujo poder é distribuído de forma assimétrica ocupam e lutam por posições. Diversos trabalhos demonstram a predominância de autores americanos a embasar a produção nacional que, consequentemente, termina por ter forte inclinação funcionalista. Por outro lado, em torno dos anos 90, a hegemonia americana passa a ser mais fortemente contestada, especialmente por pesquisadores que passam a demonstrar maior independência intelectual em relação às tradições epistemológicas do mainstream. A inspiração para este grupo emergente são os chamados Critical Management Studies (CMS) originados no Reino Unido. A conclusão da pesquisa permitiu apreender parte das oposições e afinidades que organizam o campo, suas transformações e as estratégias dos dois grupos de agentes rivais, constituindo a denominada arena dos estudos organizacionais. Por outro lado, mesmo pouco aderentes à denominação novos entrantes , podemos assumir que são claras e muitas das vezes institucionalizadas as transformações ocorridas no pós anos 90. A pesquisa evidenciou ainda o aumento de debates e sistematizações no sentido da construção de epistemologia específica da disciplina, que não apenas contribuem para o aperfeiçoamento da teoria administrativa como também apontam caminhos para os desenvolvimentos futuros da Administração.

This structure is composed of Theme, the starting point of the message that lends prominence to the elements that compose it, thus establishing the base to interpret the remainder of the clause, named Rheme. This question has been the object of attention on the part of some researchers, and their papers show that linguistic choices made to realize Theme generate communicational implications (e.g. MATTHIESSEN 2001; LIROLA; SMITH 2006). Others have analyzed thematic structure in literary translation and suggested, thus displaying didactic concerns, that Theme changes in translation interfere in the interpretation of the message and often ascribe such changes to the translator‟s style (e.g. BAKER 1992; PAGANO 2005; FIGUEREDO 2006). In 1995, Ventola already had referred to the sparse amount of research studies focused on theme structure and on the pattern of Theme progression within a text that undergoes a translation process. In Brazil, researchers have analyzed this matter by comparing the Portuguese language to English or Spanish and, as far as we know, there is no researches contrasting Portuguese with the Japanese language, which is the case here. As it seeks to contribute to studies involving these questions, this thesis examines three short stories taken from modern Japanese literature and their translations into Portuguese with the aim of analyzing how thematic structure is realized, their different forms and how the latter interfere in the interpretation of the message within the translated text. This thesis is theoretical and methodologically supported by the premises of Systemic-Functional Linguistics (HALLIDAY 1994), to the Japanese language by Teruya (2007), on the studies by Barbara and Gouveia (2004) to the Portuguese language and on contributions by Translation Studies. The analyses show that differences occur not always due to the linguistic typology, but owing to choices made by the translator, given that there were other possibilities of retextualization. As a result, a new perspective for interpreting the message and apprehending the literary characteristics of the work is outlined / A estrutura temática é a que imprime à oração o seu caráter de mensagem (HALLIDAY 1994). Essa estrutura é composta de Tema, o ponto de partida da mensagem que dá proeminência aos elementos que a compõem, estabelecendo a base de interpretação para o restante da oração, denominado de Rema. Essa questão tem merecido a atenção de alguns pesquisadores em trabalhos sobre a tradução, mostrando que escolhas linguísticas para realizar o Tema geram implicações comunicativas (e.g. MATHIESSEN 2001; LIROLA; SMITH 2006). Outros têm analisado a estruturação temática em traduções literárias e sugerido que as mudanças temáticas interferem na interpretação da mensagem e, muitas vezes, creditam essas mudanças ao estilo do tradutor (e.g. BAKER 1992; PAGANO 2005; FIGUEREDO 2006). Já em 1995, Ventola se referia às poucas pesquisas interessadas na estrutura temática e no padrão de progressão temática de um texto quando submetido ao processo tradutório. No Brasil, os trabalhos têm analisado a questão comparando a língua portuguesa com a língua inglesa ou espanhola e pelo que nos consta não há nenhum trabalho que contraste o português com a língua japonesa, como é o caso desta pesquisa. Buscando contribuir para o estudo dessa questão, esta pesquisa examina três contos da literatura japonesa moderna e suas traduções para o português, a fim de analisar como se dá a realização da estrutura temática, as diferenças daí advindas e a interferência dessas na interpretação da mensagem no texto traduzido. Para este estudo, utilizo o suporte teórico-metodológico dos pressupostos da Línguística Sistêmico-Funcional (HALLIDAY 1994), de sua extensão para a língua japonesa por Teruya (2007), dos estudos de Barbara e Gouveia (2004) na sua extensão para a língua portuguesa e das contribuições dos Estudos de Tradução. As análises mostram que as diferenças na estruturação nem sempre são motivadas pela tipologia linguística, mas devidas a escolhas do tradutor, já que existiam outras possibilidades de retextualização. Em função dessas diferenças, nova perspectiva se delineia para a interpretação da mensagem e para a apreensão de características literárias da obra
