Análisis traductológico de la obra paremiográfica de Charles Cahier, (francés-español)

This thesis contains a translatological analysis of the Spanish proverbs collected by Charles Cahier in Quelque six mille proverbes et aphorismes usuels empruntés à notre âge et aux siècles derniers. Proverbs and other sententious sayings are part of our day-to-day life, and are more or less intensely used according to cultures and their types of speech. They have always existed in every single civilisation. There is, indeed, no denying that the purpose of proverbs is to convey an old experience. They are quoted by major philosophers and writers of all times. As a result of the interest they have raised, books of proverbs have been published for many centuries in a high number of countries. Proverbs can be found everywhere, both in professional and personal settings, or in a conversation between friends. In France, these sayings are more commonly used in literature than in spoken language, whereas in Spain proverbs can be found at all levels of communication. In this regard, it is interesting to compare the translations of international works to detect a number of misunderstandings regarding the interpretation of paremiological elements. This is why translating proverbs is a genuine, complex issue. This thesis, which is aimed at Spanish and French speakers (including native and foreign speakers), has a double application (translatological and linguistic) and falls within the context of translatological and comparative paremiology...

Regionalismos léxicos y paremiológicos en la narrativa de Jorge Amado: aspectos sociolingüístico y antropológico

The work of Jorge Amado collects and processes relevant aspects of Brazilian miscegenation and allows discussion on various issues relating to the cultural productions of the country. If on the one hand the racial mixture can be seen as the result of an harmonious process, as is traditional Brazilian thought that comes from XVIII century, on the other hand it portrays the customs of Bahian society at different times, mixing the humorous tone to the optimistic view of the world. As for the miscegenation, reality of the Bahian people, as of all Brazil, can also be analyzed in their heterogeneity, for whom observes that, in the end, the crossing of economic, social and cultural boundaries have been, in many cases, quite problematic. The aim of this work is to make a journey into reality, past and present in Brazil, to understand the lexical regionalisms present in each work; it is important to understand the history of slavery, indigenous groups and the relation that the white man had with this world. All that enormous database of spoken language (a true linguistic laboratory) served and is serving to describe the Portuguese in Brazil in its regional, ethnic and social varieties. (Bagno, 2011: 104-105) I analyze here two works by Jorge Amado, Gabriela, Clove and Cinnamon: Chronicle of an Inner City and Tieta of Agreste, which constitute the corpus of this work, which will consist in detecting an extensive glossary and the collection thereof as well as paremiological regionalisms; phrases or expressions corresponding to a region and time of Brazil...
