The present study on Jonathan Swift's Modest Proposal was developed to investigate the various elements that contributed to the work becoming a canon of the satirical genre of English/Irish and world literature, as well as to investigate how the translations of the social critique of the Modest Proposal work were developed in order to transpose the elements of the Irish/English literary polysystem into the Brazilian polysystem. Taking these questions, then, the aspects related to the work and its source system, that is, its production context, were approached in a first moment, in which through a bibliographical study based on Golway (2000), Hunter (2003), Kee (1972) Máire e O’Brien (1997) Foster (1988), Alexander (2007), Carter e MacRae (2001), the various factors that led to the construction of this satire, from the historical context, as well as the factors related to Swift's life, were discussed. Later on, in order to discover how the work was translated into the Portuguese Language and the Brazilian polysystem, two distinct target texts, one developed by Helena Barbas (2004) and another Dorothée de Bruchard (1993), were then analyzed. Both translations thus became the focus of the systematic and descriptive analysis of the translation that was based on the studies developed by Itamar Iven-Zohar (1989), Toury (2002), Lambert & Van Gorp (2011), Berman (2007), Lanzetti (2008). The results of this study, both bibliographical and analytical, show that, despite the predominance of different translation tendencies, the first one (Barbas) was the domesticator and the second, the foreigneizer one. The highest contrast was observed not only in the transposition of irony and argumentative strategies, but also in the discovery that the works were linked to two different systems of the Portuguese Language, one Portuguese and the other one Brazilian, thus generating significant changes in the lexicon and syntax of the text. |
