Learning objectives
At the end of the course, students must have acquired the tools to reflect critically on the topics covered, in particular on the basis of textual analysis and translation practice.
This knowledge and skills can be acquired through regular participation in lessons and other supplementary teaching activities.
Prerequisites
Knowledge of Portuguese language / Level B1
Course unit content
The course will focus on specialized language from a translation perspective (interlingual, intralingual and audiovisual).
Full programme
The mod. A will be dedicated to the study of translation theories and methods, and to the in-depth study of lexical and morphosyntactic differences and analogies between the varieties of the Portuguese language (European, Brazilian and African). Subsequently, starting from the synoptic and contrastive analysis of some translations (parallel and comparable corpora ita-por/por-ita) of diversified textual typologies, semantic, pragmatic, stylistic and discursive aspects will be highlighted and studied.
The mod. B will focus on the concept of collaborative translation, from a theoretical and methodological point of view.
Subsequently, the Italian translation, in a collaborative form, of Almeida Faria's book, O Murmúrio do Mundo (Lisboa, Tinta-da-China, 2010) will be addressed.
The corpus of texts will be uploaded to the Elly platform before the start of the course.
