    The translaborative case for a translational hermeneutics

    Get PDF
    This paper takes the notion of translaboration as a stepping stone for an exploration of translational hermeneutics. It aims to expand translaboration’s focus beyond collaborations between multiple translators, or authors and translators, and theorises translaboration as a means of framing textual agents reading and writing each other within texts. The argument draws on Hans-Georg Gadamer’s and Paul Ricoeur’s conceptions of the interpretative agent, and of translation as an object of philosophical enquiry, and adopts a “hermeneutics of decipherment” (Maitland 2017, 38) as an alternative to dialogic models of understanding and translating. Similarly, the relationship between philosophical and translational hermeneutics is interrogated and recast as a translaborative endeavour rather than as an immediately reciprocal dialogue. Translaboration thus also furthers the move away from what Blumczynski (2016, 29) calls “an arborescent epistemological paradigm” of interdisciplinarity and animates a transdisciplinarity that is fundamentally “rhizomatic” (ibid.; see Deleuze and Guattari 2004) in nature

    Translaboration: Translation and Labour

    Get PDF
    Translaboration, a concept derived from blending ‘translation’ and ‘collaboration’, has the concept of labour at its core. This paper investigates the dimension of labour in online collaborative translation, relates translational labour to Arendt’s categories of work and action, and proceeds to broaden the discussion to the labour involved in translation more generally. It also considers what effect the application of these concepts has on the interests of translators and other stakeholders. Probing the labour of translation not only has a profound bearing on framings of both voluntary and professional translation practices, but can also reshape discussions of the translation concept as such. Rather than pitting ‘work’ and ‘labour’ as competing concepts, this paper shows that labour, work, and action all apply to translation and can be brought into productive dialogue in the translaborative space

    PURPOSE: To evaluate percutaneous cryotherapy as a primary treatment option for high-risk prostate cancer patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS: From October 2000 to February 2005, 21 high-risk (Gleason e8 and/or PSA >; 10 and/or stage >; T2a) prostate cancer patients underwent 24 percutaneous prostate cryoablation procedures. Patients' median age was 70.9, and the average pretreatment PSA was 19.5 ng/dL. The follow-up period ranged from 6 to 60 months (median, 41 months). RESULTS: The PSA failure rate was 39%, 52.9%, and 42.8% at 12, 24, and 60 months of follow-up, respectively. Overall complication rates were low, with 8% of urinary incontinence and no cases of rectal injury; however, 96% of erectile dysfunction occurred. The cryoablation procedure failed in 12 patients (57.2%); 7 (58.3%) of these were local failures (positive prostate biopsies). CONCLUSION: Percutaneous cryoablation of the prostate is a safe minimally invasive treatment, but it has poor PSA-free survival outcomes in high-risk prostate cancer patients.OBJETIVO: Avaliar a crioterapia percutânea como tratamento primário para o câncer de próstata de alto risco. PACIENTES E MÉTODOS: De outubro de 2000 a fevereiro de 2005, 21 pacientes com câncer de próstata de alto risco foram submetidos a 24 crioablações de próstata como tratamento primário. A mediana de idade dos pacientes foi de 70,9, e a média do PSA pré-tratamento de 19,5 ng/dl. O tempo de seguimento variou de 6 a 60 meses (mediana de 41 meses). RESULTADOS: Os índices de falha do PSA foram de 39% e 52,9% respectivamente aos 12 e 24 meses de seguimento. A sobrevida livre de doença em 5 anos foi de 42,8%. De maneira geral os índices de complicações foram baixos, com 8% de incontinência urinária e nenhum caso de lesão retal. Os índices de impotência foram de 96%. Em doze pacientes (57,2%) onde houve falha da crioablação, 7 (58,3%) apresentaram recidivas locais (biópsia positiva) e os demais recidiva a distância. CONCLUSÃO: A crioablação percutânea da próstata é um tratamento minimamente invasivo da próstata, seguro, porém ainda com resultados modestos em pacientes com câncer de próstata de alto risco, quando se considera a sobrevida livre de doença em 5 anos, havendo portanto necessidade de associação de outras modalidades terapêuticas no tratamento deste grupo específico de doentes

    What do Basic Competence Standards of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) propose to guide cultural formation?

    RESUMEN: Se presenta una investigación documental en la que se elaboró una definición de formación cultural y se rastreó en los Estándares Básicos de Competencia en Lengua Extranjera (MEN, 2006) desde cuatro núcleos temáticos que estructuraron esta definición. Los hallazgos muestran una propuesta de formación cultural que se queda en los niveles básicos de ésta –núcleos temáticos 1 y 2–; no trasciende a niveles superiores –núcleos temáticos 3 y 4–; enfatiza en la apariencia de la cultura; no presenta continuidad en el proceso de formación; es prescriptiva y limitada en la redacción de los Estándares; tiende hacia una aplicación generalizada.ABSTRATC: This article reports the results of a documentary research, in which the definition of cultural formation was elaborated and tracked down in the Basic Competence Standards (MEN, 2006) from four thematic cores that structured this definition. The findings evidence a proposal of cultural formation that stays in the basic levels –thematic cores 1 and 2– does not go beyond to higher levels –thematic cores 3 and 4– emphasizes on the appearance of culture; does not provide continuity in the learning process; is prescriptive and limited concerning the writing of the standards; and evidences a tendency to a generalized application

    Shaped metal deposition (SMD) is a relatively new technology of additive manufacturing, which creates near-net shaped components by joining metallic materials by melting the area of a welding joint in high vacuum in the range from 10-3 to 10-6 mbar. In the present study, the main mechanical properties including micro-hardness and tensile properties were investigated. Single bead walls were deposited. Test pieces were machined from the deposited walls according to the National standard of Russia Federation for the mechanical tests. The tensile properties also showed dependence on the direction of the test carried out. All the examined tensile properties of the as deposited samples are close-matched properties of the as cast material

    По причине токсичности перед сбросом в водоемы ионы цинка выделяются из сточных вод в виде твердых соединений, которые осаждаются в виде шлама в прудах-накопителях. Приведены данные по количественному и качественному составам шлама в накопителеотстойнике предприятия по производству вискозного волокна. Отмечено, что такой накопитель в г. Красноярске является техногенным образованием содержащем ценное сырье - цинк. Поэтому необходима разработка и внедрение технологий переработки и утилизации цинксодержащих шламов различных производств.Zinc ions are toxic and they are isolated from sewage in the form of solid compounds before discharge into water bodies. Precipitation occurs in the form of slime in storage ponds. Data on the quantitative and qualitative composition of the sludge in the reservoir-settler of an enterprise for the production of viscose fiber are given. It is noted that such a storage facility in Krasnoyarsk is a technogenic for mation containing valuable raw materials - zinc. Therefore, it is necessary to develop and implement technologies for processing and utilization of zinc-containing slurries of various industries
