Resumo: One strategy devised by the US government through the Office of the Coordinator of Inter-American Affairs was to strengthen its relationship with Latin-American countries during the Second World War (1939-1945) by translating Brazilian literature and exchanging other cultural products. This article aims at analyzing the American literary system of the 1940s into which the Brazilian literature was translated, focusing on aesthetic trends among the public and critics, as well as editorial and commercial standards. I will describe how the translated texts conformed to target system norms and outline the didactic function determined for the Brazilian translations. The theoretical and methodological framework of Descriptive Translation Studies was used to this end.

O objetivo deste artigo é analisar o sistema literário estadunidense para o qual a literatura brasileira foi traduzida na década de 1940, abordando as tendências estéticas da crítica e do público e os padrões editoriais e comerciais do período. Demonstrarei a acomodação das traduções às normas do sistema receptor com destaque para a função pedagógica projetada para a literatura brasileira. Tendo esse objetivo em mente, utilizei o arcabouço teórico e metodológico dos Estudos Descritivos da Tradução.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina2018-05-11info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPesquisa Históricaapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/traducao/article/view/2175-7968.2018v38n2p20210.5007/2175-7968.2018v38n2p202Cadernos de Tradução; Vol. 38 No. 2 (2018): Edição Regular; 202-218Cadernos de Tradução; Vol. 38 Núm. 2 (2018): Edição Regular; 202-218Cadernos de Tradução; v. 38 n. 2 (2018): Edição Regular; 202-2182175-79681414-526Xreponame:Cadernos de Tradução (Florianópolis.
