AI, LA, ALI e AQUI: gramaticalização de um paradigma emergente no domínio funcional da especificação nominal

In the light of the Functional Linguistic Theory, in its North-American version (HOPPER, 1987, 1991, 1998, 2008, 2010; GIVÓN, 2001; LEHMANN, 2002; HOPPER; TRAUGOTT, 2003; FURTADO DA CUNHA; OLIVEIRA; MARTELOTTA, 2003, among others), the general objective of this research is to demonstrate, based on morphosyntactic and semantic-pragmatic properties, that AQUI (HERE), AÍ, ALI and LÁ (THERE) are part of an emerging paradigm in Brazilian Portuguese recently constituted and still developing of forms indicating specificity in indefinite noun phrases (NP). The data that make up the corpus of this research were collected in the following large Brazilian oral corpora: the Corpus Discurso & Gramática: a língua falada e escrita na cidade de Natal (FURTADO DA CUNHA, 1998), the Banco Conversacional de Natal (FURTADO DA CUNHA, 2010), the Projeto Variação Linguística no Estado da Paraíba VALPB (HORA, 2005) and the Projeto Variação Linguística Urbana na Região Sul do Brasil VARSUL (VANDRESEN, 2002). Firstly, the behavior of the specificity markings AQUI, AÍ, ALI and LÁ is described with respect to many factors of morphosyntactic and semantic-pragmatic nature: type of construction in which the markers appeared; existence or not of intervening material between the specificity marker item and the NP s nuclear noun; type of noun to which AQUI, AÍ, ALI and LÁ are linked; syntactic function of the specified SN; informational status of the NP to which the specificity markers AQUI, AÍ, ALI and LÁ are attached; occurrence of conversational implicatures (GRICE, 1982) in the context of use of these specificity markers. Next, a possible grammaticalization trajectory is outlined, according to which AQUI, AÍ, ALI and LÁ would had gone from an early spatial deictic indication to the specificity indication. The results point to the existence of forms with varying degree of emergence in this new paradigm of nominal specification, with AÍ being, probably, the item most grammaticalized, followed by LÁ, then ALI and AQUI, which permanence in the paradigm do not yet appear to be consolidated

Nossos Ancestrais moravam ali

A presente comunicação relata experiências com estudos em populações tradicionais no interior do Rio Grande do Norte e chama atenção para as vantagens de uma abordagem pluridisciplinar para futuros estudos etnográficos Ao longo de nossas pesquisas com comunidades de pesca e uma de quilombolas, deparamo-nos com vestígios arqueológicos (cacos de cerâmica, conchais e uma canoa ubá, entre outros materiais). Foram registrados relatos de indivíduos pertencentes a essas populações que apontam que esses objetos remontam seus antepassados. Em Patané/Camocim, no município de Ares, observamos práticas nativas que remontam antepassados indígenas, inclusive a formação de “sambaquis” individuais associados às moradias atuais. Na população quilombola de Capoeiras no município de Macaíba, vários moradores comentaram acerca de uns cacos de “panela” encontrados nos seus roçados, que dizem ser dos Tapuias, sendo este etnônimo utilizado como pertencente dos seus ancestrais

Sepsis-Induced Acute Lung Injury (ALI) Is Milder in Diabetic Rats and Correlates with Impaired NFkB Activation

Acute lung injury (ALI) develops in response to a direct insult to the lung or secondarily to a systemic inflammatory response, such as sepsis. There is clinical evidence that the incidence and severity of ALI induced by direct insult are lower in diabetics. In the present study we investigated whether the same occurs in ALI secondarily to sepsis and the molecular mechanisms involved. Diabetes was induced in male Wistar rats by alloxan and sepsis by caecal ligation and puncture surgery (CLP). Six hours later, the lungs were examined for oedema and cell infiltration in bronchoalveolar lavage. Alveolar macrophages (AMs) were cultured in vitro for analysis of I kappa B and p65 subunit of NF kappa B phosphorylation and MyD88 and SOCS-1 mRNA. Diabetic rats were more susceptible to sepsis than non-diabetics. In non-diabetic rats, the lung presented oedema, leukocyte infiltration and increased COX2 expression. In diabetic rats these inflammatory events were significantly less intense. To understand why diabetic rats despite being more susceptible to sepsis develop milder ALI, we examined the NF kappa B activation in AMs of animals with sepsis. Whereas in non-diabetic rats the phosphorylation of I kappa B and p65 subunit occurred after 6 h of sepsis induction, this did not occur in diabetics. Moreover, in AMs from diabetic rats the expression of MyD88 mRNA was lower and that of SOCS-1 mRNA was increased compared with AMs from non-diabetic rats. These results show that ALI secondary to sepsis is milder in diabetic rats and this correlates with impaired activation of NF kappa B, increased SOCS-1 and decreased MyD88 mRNA.

Immagi-nazione e post-nazione in tre scrittrici scozzesi contemporanee: Jackie Kay, A. L. Kennedy, Ali Smith

Il presente studio affronta la complessa relazione esistente tra i concetti di donna, identità e nazione nell’ambito del rinnovato progetto politico scozzese avviato dalla devolution. La letteratura femminile e la cultura scozzese contemporanea vengono dunque esaminate in un’ottica postcoloniale, coordinando una prospettiva storico-sociale a un’analisi discorsiva della nazione, comportando inoltre continui riferimenti alle più recenti teorie femministe e di genere. La produzione letteraria di Jackie Kay, A. L. Kennedy e Ali Smith infatti sembra rendere possibile un’apertura della nozione di Scottishness, consentendo un approfondimento dei temi della differenza sessuale e culturale, immaginando propriamente la Scozia in senso post-nazionale.

The Law Applicable to Online Copyright Infringements int ALI and CLIP Proposals: A Rebalance of Interest Needed?

The article discusses the problems of applicable law to copyright infringements online. It firstly identifies the main problems related to the well established territoriality principle and the lex loci protectionis rules. Then; the discussion focuses on the "ubiquitous infringement" rule recently proposed by the American Law Institute (ALI) and the European Max Planck Group for Conflicts of Law and Intellectual Propoperty (CLIP). The author strongly welcomes a compromise between the territoriality and universality approaches suggested in respect of ubiquitous infringement cases. At the same time; the paper draws the attention that the interests of "good faith" online service providers (such as legal certainty and foreseeability) have been until now underestimated and invites to take these interests into account when merging the projects into a common international proposal.
