Das páginas para as telas: um estudo comparativo do romance As Horas e sua adaptação cinematográfica.

Abstract

In this dissertation, we intend to accomplish the critical analysis of the romance The Hours (The Hours), written by the North American Michael Cunningham, in 1999, as well as of the adaptation of this work for the movies: The Hours, american film driven by Stephen Daldry, in 2002. The work of Cunningham narrates one day in the three women's life that they live in time and different space but they have your linked lives by the romance Mrs. Dalloway, of Virginia Woolf. In the development of this research, we located the present intertextuality in the works of Cunningham and of V. Woolf, showing as this dialogue is introduced to the reader. For the accomplishment of this project, we looked for back-up in the theory of the enunciation, proposed by Mikhail Bakhtin; as well as we fell back upon the parody concepts and paraphrase postulated by Domício Proença Filho, Affonso Romano de Sant´Anna, Linda Hutcheon, Leyla Perrone-Moisés, Julia Kristeva, Sandra Nitrini and Graham Allen. In what it concerns the analysis of the film, we made use of concepts of the movie theories (Bazin, Metz, Agel, Brito, among other) and a comparison between the romance and the film, in the intention of accomplishing aesthetic approaches and semiotics between the literature and the movies.
