INTEREST: I am a doctorate student at Federal University of Minas Gerais,
Brazil, and I am currently investigating Gay representation via translation
from the transitivity system model perspective developed by Halliday (1985, 1994) and
revisited by Halliday & Matthiessen (2004). I am also interested in
investigating the role the National Curriculum Parameters (Brazilian
Portuguese Language and Foreign Language) play on the understanding of
language as a means of representing social practices and realities in
school settings. To reach this goal a more accurate attention will be
given to the interconnection between ideational, interpersonal and
textual metafunctions.
