La traducción dramática: textos para ver, oír… sentir

Translation of dramatic texts brings up specific issues, previous even to the own act of translation, due to its double nature of literary text and performance script, which implies a double recipient: reader and spectator. The aim of this work is an approximation to the above mentioned questions, the relationship between text and spectacle and the cultural nature of the drama translation. It also proposes some translation strategies.La traducción de textos dramáticos plantea problemas específicos, previos incluso al propio acto de traducción, debido a su doble naturaleza de texto literario y soporte de un espectáculo, lo que supone un doble receptor: lector y espectador. El presente trabajo pretende una aproximación a dichos problemas, a la relación entre texto y espectáculo, a la naturaleza cultural de la traducción dramática y propone algunas estrategias de traducción

Teatro y tradición clásica a fines del s. XVI: Juan de la Cueva y la “tragedia del horror

This work deals with the study of the classical tradition in the theatre previous to Lope in a general way, focusing particularly on Juan de la Cueva. An approach to the literary genre at the end of xvith century is followed by a closer view to the «tragedy of the horror» and one of its more important authors: Juan de la Cueva. After studying the author and his work, paying special attention to the importance of the classical culture in his formation, a selection of texts is offered to emphasize the classic as topic and as ornament.Este trabajo afronta el estudio de la tradición clásica en el teatro anterior a Lope, en general, y en Juan de la Cueva en particular. Tras un acercamiento al género a finales del s. xvi, el estudio se centra en la «tragedia del horror» y en uno de sus principales representantes: Juan de la Cueva. Una vez estudiados el autor y su obra, con especial atención a la importancia de la cultura clásica en su formación, se ofrece una selección de textos en la que se pone el acento en lo clásico como tema y como ornato

¿Tradición clásica en la última épica española? Las Mocedades de Rodrigo

The aim of this work, after the justification of the study and the contextualization of the poem in the Cidian cycle, is to approach the next question: the authorship and the epic tradition. Then, it is focused on the traditional motifs and formulas of the oral epic genre, and the materials that reveal his folkloric roots. Finally, two significant motives from the point of view of the classical tradition are studied: the leper and the five fights.El presente trabajo, tras la justificación del estudio y la contextualización del poema en el ciclo cidiano, aborda la cuestión de la autoría y la tradición épica y se centra en los motivos épicos tradicionales que presenta, así como en las fórmulas propias de un género oral y los materiales que revelan su raigambre folklórica. Por último, se estudian dos motivos significativos desde el punto de vista de la tradición clásica: el del leproso y el de las cinco lides

Hearing assessment of forest loggers

Forest logging is the process in which trees are cut down for forest management and/or timber harvest. According to OSHA, logging is the most dangerous occupation in the United States. It consistently represents one of the most hazardous industries, with a fatality rate more than 21 times higher than the rate for all workers in the United States. Yet, little research has been performed to determine the long term effect of noise on forest loggers. OSHA regulations state that the maximum permissible hearing in an 8 hour shift should not exceed 90 dB. Occupational noise exposure is recognized as a primary factor on permanent hearing loss (OSHA, 2007). The objective of this study is to determine whether long term hearing loss in forest loggers is associated with noise emitted by logging equipment. This study compares the differences in hearing thresholds of the participants, applying the OSHA age correction tables for audiograms (OSHA, 2008). These tables present the hearing threshold of a normal population at ages ranging from 20 to 60 years. Hearing threshold shift is determined by subtracting the hearing threshold of each participant from age corrected hearing threshold as defined by OSHA (2008) for each specific age. These individuals had never experienced any type of acute or chronic hearing loss. Participants were also separated into age groups of 10 year intervals (20 to 29, 30 to 39, 40 to 49, and 50 to 59) and experience groups of 10 year intervals (1 to 10, 11 to 20, 21 to 30, and 31 to 40). The hearing tests on forest loggers determined that at 4000 Hz, the mean hearing threshold of the participants was significantly higher than the rest of the frequencies. Furthermore, a significant increase in hearing threshold between the participant population and the hearing threshold of a normal population was also determined. The hearing threshold shifts at 1000, 2000, and 4000 Hz were of 4.9, 9.5 and 18.0 dB respectively. A significant decrease in the hearing threshold (of 3.4 dB) was found between those participants who wore hearing protection and those who did not

Pharmacokinetics of statins

Statins are lipid lowering agents that promote their effects on plasma lipids through the inhibition of HMG-CoA reductase, a crucial enzyme in the cascade of cholesterol synthesis, leading to reduction of tissue cholesterol pool and consequently, to an upregulation of the LDL receptor expression. There are considerable differences among statins regarding some pharmacokinetic properties, such as the coefficient of hydrophilicity, via liver metabolism (especially regarding P450 cytochrome and isoenzymes), plasma half-life and efficacy of serum lipid changes. They may also differ regarding interactions with other drugs that share the same pathway of metabolism. Recently, many pleiotropic effects have been reported with these drugs, such as anti-inflammatory properties, improvement in endothelial function and benefits on hemostasis.As estatinas são agentes hipolipemiantes que exercem os seus efeitos através da inibição da HMG-CoA redutase, enzima fundamental na síntese do colesterol, levando a uma redução do colesterol tecidual e um conseqüente aumento na expressão dos receptores de LDL. Existem consideráveis diferenças entre as estatinas, no que tange às propriedades farmacocinéticas, bem como ao coeficiente de hidrofilicidade, via hepática de metabolização (especialmente, do citocromo P450 e isoenzimas), meia-vida plasmática e eficácia na redução lipídica. As estatinas também podem diferir na capacidade de interação com outras drogas que utilizam a mesma via de metabolização. Recentemente, muitos efeitos pleiotrópicos têm sido relatados com estas drogas, bem como propriedades antiinflamatórias, melhora na função endotelial e benefícios na hemostasia.UNIFESP-EPM Setor de Lípides, Aterosclerose e Biologia VascularUNIFESP, EPM, Setor de Lípides, Aterosclerose e Biologia VascularSciEL
