Harry Potter e o Cálice de Fogo em uma perspectiva intersemiótica.

Abstract

Literature and cinema have, over time, established a profitable relationship. There are more and more cinematographic productions created from literary works, which may be a factor for the success of the filmic work or not. In this research, we analyze the transposition of the fourth book of the saga Harry Potter - Harry Potter and the goblet of fire, by the British author JK Rowling, to the cinema, in an intersemiotic translation perspective, pointing out changes and adaptations suffered in the transcoding process from the signs of the verbal to the nonverbal fields, and identifying how cinema rendered them. It also features to present the analysis of the symbols that announce the return of the villain, Lord Voldemort. Our theoretical foundation is based on intersemiotic translation and children‟s literature researches: Ariès (1988), Bazin (1991), Cademartori (2010), Carvalhal (2006), Hutcheon (2011), Jakobson (2003), Lefevere (2007), Plaza (2003) and Stam, among others. Our research is a bibliographical and qualitative one. After the discussions and analysis we concluded that the filmic work maintained the context of the story presented in the literary version, capturing and conveying the essence of the elements, even though some changes such as cutting characters and chapters have occurred.
