Shaheen Et Al. Interdiscursivity and Intertextuality
Shaheen et al. Interdiscursivity and Intertextuality: An Analysis of Paulo’s Pen Zafar Ullah Shaheen Govt. Gordon College, Rawalpindi Samina Azad NUML, Islamabad Munawar Ahmad Air University, Islamabad Received: September, 2018 Accepted: June, 2019 Keyword Abstract Interdiscursivity The present study aims to highlight the recurrent Intertextuality associations and the way Intertextuality and Discourse Interdiscursivity reworked in the various narratives Recurrent associations of Paulo Coelho. Kristeva's posits that intertextuality Dialogue is a word that has other words, a text containing other texts, thus revealing that a text is not an autonomous, self-sufficient or closed system. The researcher uses Intertextuality and Interdiscursivity, as synonymous. Hence, Intertextuality and interdiscursivity is a brief or prolonged reference of a text within another text (like intertextuality). The point is that the two (all) texts considered are by the same author (unlike intertextuality). This invites comparison (no doubt) between/ among the texts of the same author. The research involves twelve narratives penned down by Paulo Coelho including Eleven Minutes, Adultery, The Witch of Portobello, Al-Chemist, The Winner Stands Alone, The Zahir, Aleph, The Pilgrimage, Brida, The Fifth Mountain, The Manual of the Warrior of Light, and The Devil and Miss Prym. The investigation exposes some themes such as self-discovery, adventure into the unknown, learning, obsession and death; symbols such as fire, omens, and dance; speeches such as shepherd, journeys, tragedies, orgasm; and ideas such as happiness/unhappiness, dreams, quest and love are found recurrent in the selected stories, thus imparting a unique style that distinguishes not only the selected stories but also the author from other stories and the authors from the same and from different parts of the world. -

He has been given the Crystal Award by the World Economic Forum. He has the Guinness World Record for most translated book by a living author (The Alchemist), which has been translated into 80 languages.

In addition “The Alchemist” talks about a dream that a young, adventurous Andalusian shepherd, Santiago sees every night. He sees a child in his dream telling him to go find a treasure at the foot of the Egyptian pyramids, whenever he falls asleep under a sycamore, which is growing out of the ruins of a church. As a result, Santiago goes to a gypsy to verify the dream and the gypsy tells him to travel to Egypt. Then he meets an old man, named Melchizedek, who claims to be his Personal Legend and encourages him to go to Egypt as well. He sells his flock and crosses Spain to Tangier. When he arrives there, a thief robs him and he is forced to work in a crystal merchant. He learns a lot of lessons there from the merchant and helps him grow his business by taking some risks and gathers enough money in a year in order to set off for the Egyptian pyramids again. He joins a caravan crossing Sahara all the way to Egypt. -

Easy to Misunderstand, Dangerous to Put Down.By Brendon BurchardIt would be easy to assume this is simply a book about sex and adultery. But people often misunderstand the depths of those things, and thus this is a book of deeper allure and meaning.This is a story about a woman mad with loneliness and boredom and disconnection, driven to the brink and willing to risk it all to find something more—adventure, passion, redemption, herself. She is not someone you will admire, and she will seem at times superficial and disgusting, but you will understand her. And despite her wealth and ugliness, despite her weakness, her indiscretion, her bizarre thinking, you might just learn something from her. And that is why this is a book for anyone in a relationship. What relationship doesn't get ugly at times?What Coelho does so brilliantly in "Adultery" is pace its story with its main character’s life, struggles, and personality. And so it feels a bit boring and stifled at first, then it shocks and overreacts, then it has trouble finding itself, and then, finally, after all those relationship troubles and veiled justifications, it lifts and soars. -

Mapping Brazilian Literature Translated Into English
Mapping Brazilian Literature Translated into English Cimara Valim de Melo Translation demands some form of transculturation, requiring that one artifact be transported from one culture to another Albert Braz (17) 1. Introduction In the article ‘Brazilian Literature Goes Global’, Kristal Bivona stresses the increasing availability of Brazilian literature in translation owing to govern- mental and private-sector investments to promote Brazilian literature abroad. However, this view has not been unanimously supported as the subject ‘Brazilian literature in translation’ has provoked contrasting views. According to Ángel Gurría-Quintana, despite the common complaint that not enough Brazilian literature is published in English, this is an auspicious moment for new Brazilian writing in translation. Furthermore, there are global issues which prevent ‘peripheral’ literature from being known worldwide. As evidence of this, according to the University of Rochester (Three Percent), only about three percent of all books published in the USA are works in transla- tion, and in terms of literary fiction and poetry the number is lower than one percent.1 In order to examine the reception of Brazilian literature in the anglophone world and also to show how the Brazilian literary system has developed from the viewpoint of the historiography of translation, this study aims to produce an overview of Brazilian literature in the English language by mapping the most representative works, authors, translators and publishing houses from 1 Launched in 2007, Three Percent is an online resource for international literature at the University of Rochester, with the ‘goal of becoming a destination for readers, editors, and translators interested in finding out about modern and contemporary international literature’.
