A TRADUÇÃO DE O FILHO ETERNO DE CRISTOVÃO TEZZA PARA LÍNGUA INGLESA SOB AS LENTES DOS ESTUDOS DE TRADUÇÃO BASEADOS EM CORPUS

O presente trabalho propõe-se a analisar a obra do escritor brasileiro Cristovão Tezza, O Filho Eterno, de 2007, e a tradução para língua inglesa, The Eternal Son, de 2013, de Alison Entrekin sob a perspectiva dos Estudos da Tradução Baseados em Corpus (BAKER, 1993, 1996) e da Linguística de Corpus (BERBER SARDINHA, 2004). Em consonância com as teoriasnorteadoras do campo da Literatura Comparada, os Estudos da Tradução superam perspectivas de equivalência e fidelidade para assumir a compreensão da tradução como um objeto perse (BAKER, 1996). Dessa forma, prima-se por identificar comportamentos inerentes ao texto traduzido de modo a contribuir para a compreensão dos processos, das características e, emúltima instância, do fenômeno da tradução. Este trabalho focaliza a tendência de simplificação – omissão e consequente redução no texto traduzido em comparação ao original – e explicitação – inserções explicativas e consequente aumento na tradução. A identificação e análise de tais características configuraram-se como uma tendência a aproximar o texto original a cultura e língua alvo, facilitando por meio de inserções ou omissões a leitura e fluidez para o público-alvo. A análise de toda a extensão dos subcorpora computados na pesquisatornou-se possível por meio do suporte da ferramenta digital, WordSmith Tools 6.0

Englishwithliterature.hol.es: o texto literário e o ensino de língua inglesa numa proposta para os nativos digitais.

O presente trabalho se propõe a apresentar uma proposta de ensino-aprendizagem no contexto digital, desenvolvida a partir de teorias pautadas na Linguística Cognitiva, nos estudos de Aquisição de Segunda Língua e na inguística Aplicada. O aporte teórico fundamentou a criação de um ambientedigital que visa, principalmente, ao incentivo do uso da literatura ao ensino da Língua Inglesa. O mote da construção da proposta foi a obra The old man and the sea, de Ernest Hemingway, com o objetivo de promover o uso real da língua, possibilitando um espaço interativo e dinâmico, tanto para aprendizes autônomos quanto para aqueles que têm a mediação de um professor na sala de aularegular. Partindo do contexto de ensino-aprendizagem de língua inglesa no ensino público brasileiro, a sugestão de atividades online aspira, acima de tudo, um direcionamento pedagógico de ensino de segunda língua coerente com o perfil do aluno na sociedade tecnológica digital

We tested the detergency of the cleaning agents (i. e., soap solution, sodium dodecyl sulfonate, and linear alkylbenzen sulfonate which were mixed with Na_5P_3O_) in the casces of cotton, polyester fabric and polypropylene fabric which had been soiled by ferric oxide. The following are the results of the test which we got by comparing the rate of detergency efficiency calculated from the rate of surface reflectivity, with the rate of desorption calculated from the amount of Fe_2O_3 on the soiled fabrics. (1) The most marked detergency was recognized in the case of the po1yester fabric when it was cleaned by any detergent agent mixed with Na_5P_3O_. (2) Of the three surface active agents, SDS, and LAS showed the most marked effect on the soiled fabrics when they were mixed with Na_5P_3O_ respectively. (3) We examined the detergency of three detergents (soap solution, LAS, SDS ) taking into account their desorption also. And as the result of the examination it was found out that these different detergents had the different effects upon the soiled fabrics but the same trend of the efficiency of cleaning was recognized on the graph among them

We examined the detergency of soap and laundry detergent using the artificially soiled cloth test and the bundle test. (1) In the test of the artificially soiled cloth, two kinds of cloth were used and examined. The organically soiled cloth, which is close to the naturally soiled one, became cleaner than the artificially soiled cloth based on the criteria of \u27The Japan Oil Chemists\u27 Society\u27 when laundry detergent was used. (2) We got higher detergency of soap when we used the artificially soiled cloth based on the criteria of \u27The Japan Oil Chemists\u27 Society.\u27 The detergency of soap was especially high at a lower temperature. (3) Three types of machines were used when we washed. We got the highest detergency with the Terg-O-Tometer, next with the Scrab-O-Meter and finally with the Incubator. In the case of the Scrab-O-Meter, we got higher detergency of soap at a lower temperature. (4) In the bundle test, we reproduced the same conditions as an underwear which was used in everyday life. That is, the underwear was repeatedly worn and washed ten times. In this case, detergent had a higher detergency than soap. (5) In the bundle test, the detergency of both soap and detergent in the 0.2% solution was higher than that in the 0.05% solution. In the case of the 0.2% solution, we got a higher detergency from the detergent than the soap. (6) Comparing with the artificially soiled cloth test with the bundle test, the detergency of soap was always higher when we made a test of washing the artificially soiled cloth only once. But in the bundle test, the detergency of detergent was higher because soap tended to accumulate in the cloth

In order to examine the detergency and the redisposition of a polyester fiber, we made the tests using carbon-black as soil and examined its dispersion under the following testing conditions. Testing liquid (Ho…ion-exchange water, H_1…5°hard water) Detergents(Bo…100%E.P.O., B_1…25%E.P, O., 25%Na_5P_3O_, 50%Na_2SO_4) Strength of a detergent liquid(Co…1%, C_1…0.01%, C_2…0.05%, C_3…0.1%, C_4…0.2%, C_5…0.4%) As for the estimation of the detergency and the redeposition, we measured surface reflectivity rate, and as for the degree of dispersion after leaving untouched carbonblack solution for a fixed space of time. we measured its absorbances and by comparing them evaluated the degree of dispersion. Following are the thief results of the detergency and redeposition tests. (1) As for the detergency, ion-exchange water showed higher rate of detergency than hard water. And both ton-exchange water and hard water showed marked detergency when they were mixed with Na_5P_3O_. The B_1 detergent solution of more than 0.05% strength showed high degree of detergency. (2) As for the redeposition of a clean polyester fiber, hard water showed higher degree of detergency than ion-exchange water. As for the detergent agent the B_1 detergent showed high degree of detergency, in both cases of ion-exchange water and hard water. (3) As for the relation of the dispersion of carbon-black with the redeposition, the higher degree of dispersion it showed, the less the redeposition was. Therefore, we can suppose that the dispersion of carbon-black imposes effecfive check upon its redisposition

In order to examine the detergency, we made a washing experiment in the following way. First, using four kinds of fabric such as cotton, silk, wool and polyester, we made two kinds of artificially stained cloth : one which was stained with volcanic ash and the other stained with oil and volcanic ash. And we washed them by using powder soap and the synthetic detergent that were both on the market. Finally the detergency was decided by the measurement of the surface reflectivity and the observation of the scanning electron microscope. The following results were gained. 1. The detergent efficiency of cotton was very high on both the cloth stained with ash and the one with oil and ash. Next the cloth of polyester was high in the detergent efficiency. On each cloth of silk and wool, the efficiency was very low. 2. With the respect to the detergent, the detergent efficiency of the synthetic detergent was much higher than that of powder soap on each of the stained cloth. 3. When we washed each cloth of silk and wool with powder soap, we got a very low detergent efficiency. On the cloth stained with ash, we received a good correlation between the result of observation of the scanning electron microscope and the detergent efficiency. But a lot of stains were observed after we washed it

In order to examine the relation of detergency with formulation of detergent solutions, detergent temperature and washing time, we used three kinds of washing machines such as the agitation type and the drum type machines which are widely used at homes in Europe and America, and the pulsator type used widely in Japan. The results were as follows. 1. Of the three types of washing machines, the pulsator type had the most excellent washing effect, followed by the agitation type and the drum type machines. With the pulsator type, however, no constant washing efficiency could be obtained, i.e., scattering of effect was the greatest of the three washing machines. 2. As to the detergent solutions, it was found that washing efficiency by the drum type machine went down eminently when D_1 detergent solution, chiefly made up of LAS, was put to use. D_2 and D_3 detergent solutions showed that they were broadly adapted for any type of the three washing machines. 3. Concerning washing temperature, each washing machine was greatly influenced by temperature and showed far higher degrees of detergency as the temperature went up to 10℃, 30℃ and 50℃. 4. In relation to washing time, a significant difference could be respectively recognized at the level of 1% between washing for 20 minutes and washing for 10 minutes in using the agitation type, and between washing for 30 minutes and washing for 20 minutes in using the drum type. In addition, when these two agitation and drum types of washing machines were used for a longer time, it was revealed that each machine showed higher washing efficiency. But in case of washing time for 10 minutes and for 7 minutes when the pulsator type was used, a meaningful difference was not obtained with regard to washing efficiency

Antibodies to Kv1 potassium channel-complex proteins leucine-rich, glioma inactivated 1 protein and contactin-associated protein-2 in limbic encephalitis, Morvan’s syndrome and acquired neuromyotonia

Antibodies that immunoprecipitate 125I-α-dendrotoxin-labelled voltage-gated potassium channels extracted from mammalian brain tissue have been identified in patients with neuromyotonia, Morvan’s syndrome, limbic encephalitis and a few cases of adult-onset epilepsy. These conditions often improve following immunomodulatory therapies. However, the proportions of the different syndromes, the numbers with associated tumours and the relationships with potassium channel subunit antibody specificities have been unclear. We documented the clinical phenotype and tumour associations in 96 potassium channel antibody positive patients (titres >400 pM). Five had thymomas and one had an endometrial adenocarcinoma. To define the antibody specificities, we looked for binding of serum antibodies and their effects on potassium channel currents using human embryonic kidney cells expressing the potassium channel subunits. Surprisingly, only three of the patients had antibodies directed against the potassium channel subunits. By contrast, we found antibodies to three proteins that are complexed with 125I-α-dendrotoxin-labelled potassium channels in brain extracts: (i) contactin-associated protein-2 that is localized at the juxtaparanodes in myelinated axons; (ii) leucine-rich, glioma inactivated 1 protein that is most strongly expressed in the hippocampus; and (iii) Tag-1/contactin-2 that associates with contactin-associated protein-2. Antibodies to Kv1 subunits were found in three sera, to contactin-associated protein-2 in 19 sera, to leucine-rich, glioma inactivated 1 protein in 55 sera and to contactin-2 in five sera, four of which were also positive for the other antibodies. The remaining 18 sera were negative for potassium channel subunits and associated proteins by the methods employed. Of the 19 patients with contactin-associated protein-antibody-2, 10 had neuromyotonia or Morvan’s syndrome, compared with only 3 of the 55 leucine-rich, glioma inactivated 1 protein-antibody positive patients (P < 0.0001), who predominantly had limbic encephalitis. The responses to immunomodulatory therapies, defined by changes in modified Rankin scores, were good except in the patients with tumours, who all had contactin-associated-2 protein antibodies. This study confirms that the majority of patients with high potassium channel antibodies have limbic encephalitis without tumours. The identification of leucine-rich, glioma inactivated 1 protein and contactin-associated protein-2 as the major targets of potassium channel antibodies, and their associations with different clinical features, begins to explain the diversity of these syndromes; furthermore, detection of contactin-associated protein-2 antibodies should help identify the risk of an underlying tumour and a poor prognosis in future patients
