  1. Part one: rhythm

  2. Melodic unit Melodic unit (MU): expression of complex balance of both phonological and syntactic sequences in a prose passage, by convention identified in relation to its syllabic extension; span of MU = by convention, number of syllables MU= meaningful portion of speech, with a musical form, between two pauses; length of pauses can vary according to value of punctuation in written texts.

  3. Value of punctuation varies from long to short through medium: it denotes a continuous phonic emission corresponding to a textual portion between two punctuation marks. Passage from unit to unit denotes the melodic sequence which constitutes speech or text musical form.

  4. The weather continued much the same all the following morning; and the same loneliness, and the same melancholy, seemed to reign at Hartfield; but in the afternoon it cleared; the wind changed into a softer quarter; the clouds were carried off; the sun appeared; it was summer again. With all the eagerness which such a transition gives, Emma resolved to be out of doors as soon as possible. Never had the exquisite sight, smell, sensation of nature, tranquil, warm, and brilliant after a storm, been more attractive to her. She longed for the serenity they might gradually introduce; and on Mr Perry’s coming in soon after dinner, with a disengaged hour to give her father, she lost no time in hurrying into the shrubbery.

  7. Emma could not bear to give him pain. He was wishing to confide in her – perhaps to consult her; cost her what it would, she would listen. She might assist his resolution, or reconcile him to it; she might give just praise to Harriet, or, by representing to him his own independence, relieve him from that state of indecision which must be more intolerable than any alternative to such a mind as his. They had reached the house. 9//9/6/5/3//9/7/8/1/13/32//5

  8. The melodic units in the ST and in two target texts(language: Italian) • ST 9/9,6,5,3/9,7,8,1,13,32/5 • TT1 16/14,7,11,9/16,10,19,1,17,14,30/12 • TT2 18/16,9,7,8/13,9,16,13,23,9,9/9

  9. Back translation • Emma could not bear to give him pain. He was wishing to confide in her – perhaps to consult her; cost her what it would, she would listen. 9/9,6,5,3/ • But Emma could not bear to give him pain.Sincehe was wishing to confide in her… and perhaps to consult her, she would listen to him, cost her what it would. 18/16,9,7,8/ (Italian)

  10. (…) relieve him from that state of indecision which must be more intolerable than any alternative to such a mind as his. They had reached the house. 32/5 • (…) relieve him from a state of indecision certainly more intolerable, to such a mind as his, than any alternative. They were before the house: 13,23,9,9/9 (Italian)

  11. Emma non poteva tollerare di addolorarlo. Egli desiderava di confidarsi con lei – forse di consultarla – qualunque cosa dovesse costarle, essa doveva ascoltare. Avrebbe potuto confortare la sua decisione, o fare che ci si rassegnasse; avrebbe potuto tributare le debite lodi a Harriet, o, argomentando in favore della sua indipendenza, sollevarlo da quello stato d’indecisione, che doveva essere più intollerabile d’ogni alternativa a una mente come la sua. Frattanto erano giunti alla casa. 9//9/6/5/3//9/7/8/1/13/32//5 16//14/7/11/9//16/10/19/1/17/14/30//12

  12. Ma Emma non poteva tollerare di recargli dolore. PoichéMrKnightley desiderava confidarsi a lei... e forse chiederle consiglio, l’avrebbe ascoltato, costasse quel che costasse. Poteva confortarlo nella decisione, o riconciliarlo con essa: poteva rendere a Harriet l’omaggio dovuto o, richiamandolo alla sua indipendenza, liberarlo da uno stato d’indecisione certo più intollerabile, per una mente come la sua, di qualunque alternativa. Erano davanti a casa: 9//9/6/5/3//9/7/8/1/13/32//5 18//16/9/7/8//13/9/16/13/23/9/9//9
