Tradução transcultural no filme O : Othelo ontem e hoje.

Abstract

This monograph discusses an intersemiotic relation between the movie O, directed by Tim Blake Nelson and written by Brad Kaaya (2001), and Shakespeare’s play Othelo, contemplating the concept of cross-cultural translation based on the studies of Thaïs Flores Nogueira Diniz. Defending a conception of adaptation that goes beyond a simple duplication and considering the possible dialogues between the verbal signs of drama and cinema, this analysis focus on the protagonists - Othello/Odin and Iago/Hugo - and stresses the numerous particularities corresponding to each character from the reading of scholars such as Jan Kott, Barbara Heliodora, Emma Smith, Martin Lings and others.
