RESUMO:

Adapting literary works is a very old activity, but even so, it faces some prejudice due to its character of reconstructing another work. This dissertation proposes to discuss adaptation not as something inferior, but as an an activity of recreation and reconstruction of a previous text. These principles will guide the identification and discussion of some of the choices made by the adapters of the novel Pride and Prejudice for the transmedia storytelling of the web series The Lizzie Bennet Diaries so that the latter becomes more understandable for the 21st century viewer. The corpus consists of the novel Pride and Prejudice and the transmedia narrative of the web series The Lizzie Bennet Diaries formed by the main series mentioned and three other short series: The Lydia Bennet Diaries, Maria of the Lu and Domino: Gigi Darcy. Finally, the profiles of the characters of the webseries on the social network Twitter will also compose the corpus. Aspects of the novel and adaptation will be discussed using theoretical tools provided by the deconstructive theory of translation, focusing on three aspects: space-time, thematics and gender/sexuality to demonstrate how this contemporary adaptation updates characteristics of the novel. Since the internet, the media where the webseries was created, has characteristics that contribute to shape this adaptation, communication theorists were used to aggregate concepts to this work. In addition to the deconstructivist theories of Walter Benjamin (2008) and Jacques Derrida (1973, 1976, 1995, 2006) and the adaptation theories of Linda Hutcheon (2011), this analysis was based on theories of communication by Henry Jenkins (2009), Vicente Gosciola and Andrea Venutti (2012) and Daniela Zanetti (2013) to discuss, respectively, the culture of convergence, transmedia storytelling and the development of the webseries. Finally, in order to discuss the aspects of space-time, thematics and gender/sexuality, the concepts and ideas of authors such as Edward Said (2011), Susie Steinbach (2004), Shulamith Firestone (1976) and Michel Foucault (2015) were considered.
