A tradução comentada do heterodiscurso em As Cinco Sementes de Laranja (1891) e Um Escândalo na Boêmia (1891), de Arthur Conan Doyle

Abstract

This work aims to present a commented translation from 17th century British English to Brazilian Portuguese of the short stories The Five Orange Pips and A Scandal in Bohemia, both written by Arthur Conan Doyle and published in 1891. The commentaries to the translations of these two short stories about Sherlock Holmes were focused on the translation of the heterodiscourse, on the one hand, in the narration of the fictional action in literary texts from English to Portuguese, namely the translation of the motion and of the sensorial perception verbs and, on the other hand, in the interspersed genres in the short stories, involving the insertion of a note, an encyclopedia’s entry and a journal news in The Five Orange Pips, as well as a note and a letter in A Scandal in Bohemia. In our commented translations to these aspects of both short stories written by Conan Doyle, we also dialogue with other Brazilian translations, such as the translations of The Five orange Pips by Hamilcar Garcia (n.d.), Daniel Knight (2015), Edna Mello (2007), Luciane Aquino (2014), and Maria Luiza X. de Almeida (2010); and the translations of A Scandal in Bohemia by Luciane Aquino (2014), Edna de Mello (2007) and Casemiro Linarth (2019).
