Literature is a part of the cultural heritage, as well as other artistic manifestations that occur in a nation. Fixed expressions, or phraseologisms, are one of the keys to understand a language. Imbued with sociocultural traits, their knowledge is crucial to qualify someone to understand a given discourse. João Guimarães Rosa is known as one of the greatest authors from Minas Gerais precisely because he placed the inhabitants of the sertão in the foreground. Guimarães Rosa opens to the reader a gateway to a world that was already disappearing when his first work, Sagarana, was published in 1946, keeping in mind that the sertão was already in the process of modernization. Considering these premises, the question is: To what extent does the use of phraseological units in the work participate in the construction of the cultural universe of the work? What is the typology of the phraseological units in the work Sagarana by Guimarães Rosa? What are the scientifics criterias that allow the recognition and analysis of these units? How were phraseological units translated into French by Jacques Thiériot? The main objective of this thesis is to analyze the phraseological units in the work Sagarana by Guimarães Rosa, with the aim of demonstrating the pertinence of this linguistic phenomenon in the prose of the author from Minas Gerais and verifying how the translator for the French language maintained (or not) the recurrence of these expressions in the French version. In this research, the objective is to analyze and classify the fixed expressions of the author's first work: Sagarana, initially published in 1946 and from Nova Fronteira’s edition, in 2017. Also, to analyze the treatment of these fixed expressions in the French translations. Our research will serve to demonstrate the importance of mastering phraseologisms to understand a given wording and the (in)translatability of a fixed expression from one language to another, in order to reflect on the possibilities of (re)transmission of Guimarães Rosa’s literary and cultural imaginary. To carry out this study, a classification and typology of the different types of phraseologisms found out in the corpus will be made with a theoretical framework based on French phraseology (GROSS, 1996; MEJRI, 1997; 2011; BLANCO and MEJRI, 2018, among others) and also on brazilian phraseology (MONTEIRO-PLANTIN, 2012; XATARA and SUCCI, 2013; MARQUES, 2018a; 2018b, among others) to which some Spanish researchers were added (CORPAS-PASTOR, 1996; GONZALEZ-REY, 2015; 2018, among others); and, in a second moment, the study of the translations (from Portuguese to French) of the raised phraseologisms will be carried out, having as theoretical bases studies of BERMAN (1999) on the notion of intercultural translation where marks of the source language appear in the target language . In this doctoral thesis, based on the potential phraseological units extracted from the corpus (see annexes), a sample of 51 proverbs, 10 pragmatemes and 10 expressions were analyzed, which presented the criteria established in the theoretical framework because they were recognized as phraseological units and which were marked by dashes significant cultural. The cultural dimension appears as an essential criterion for describing phraseological units, because it has been proven that even if the morphosyntactic structure of the unit is lost in translation, the cultural trait, often in strict relation with the meaning, is maintained. The cultural trait appears to be linked to the metaphorical dimension of the other phraseologisms, which is also a clue to be explored to prove its importance in describing this phenomenon. In this way, this thesis intends to establish another bond between Brazil and France in terms of phraseological studies, as well as to open up new analytical perspectives regarding Rosa's work.
