Estratégias de relativização nas variedades lusófonas

This paper, which examines restrictive and non-restrictive constructions in the Lusophone varieties, assumes that Portuguese has a set of relativization strategies that are recognized by typological linguistics as constructions that define related groups of languages. Thus, it is possible that these different strategies, when employed by the same linguistic system, not really constitute variants of the same syntactic variable but the speaker’s actual choices facing the necessity to perform different social and discursive functions.

Recepção de Odorico Mendes: (a)casos de crítica de tradução no séc. XIX

This paper aims at gathering evidences about the reception of Odorico Mendes Greek andRoman translations among his contemporaries. Some of the most celebrated lusophone writersof the 19th Century such as Joaquim Manoel de Macedo, Gonçalves Dias and AntónioFeliciano de Castilho left us their reviews on the work of Mendes, the most productiveand controversial Brazilian translator of the time. The analysis of those data provides valuabledocuments of translation criticism that could constitute evidence of translation practices andmethods in an historical period in which Ancient Literature poetic translations were mostlyproduced.

Memória e identidade nos romances de Milton Hatoum

This article deals with how Milton Hatoum explores aspects of the memory, through the convergence of voices in his four Lusophone novels Tale of a Certain Orient, The Brothers, Ashes of the Amazon and Orphans of Eldorado. A profile of complex characters is constructed through a synthesis of accounts, letters and depositions, as different faces of individuals and society at large are interspersed through memory.

Transconversações queer: sussurros e gemidos lusófonos Quatro cadelas mirando a(s) Psicologia(s)

To follow the cartographies’ path throughout pernicious (dis)courses of the capitalized Psychology. Com/positions both around desires and binary desires raised from binary norms, followed by (un)folding the beds, the “family”, the clinical thought and practice, the research, the geni(t)ality. Profane writing. Epistemic micro-rebellion promised and incorporated by the ass, because in the beginning it was and it (also) is the ass. A distorted and a trans-barked way of writing by four female dogs looking at Psychology. To (d)enounce the ménage that psychologists, supported by a history without history, intent to build over their empty beds which are blemished by modern Truth(s). Towards a minor psychology, this is a schizo-queer-analytic manifesto on desires-pleasures-senses within the lusophone transcontemporaneity. In the absence of a conclusion, we propose rather the provocative state that only a bitchy-psychology-to-come could edify the visibility of the invisible human. Otherwise, we believe it is in the promising barks that Psychology can be withdrawn from its betraying and betrayed contention of multitudes

O método de tradução de João Ferreira de Almeida: O caso do Evangelho de Mateus

Entre as traduções da Bíblia utilizadas nos países lusófonos, a clássica versão de João Ferreira de Almeida é a mais popular, mesmo quando o conceito de equivalência dinâmica é o impulsionador principal na produção de novas versões bíblicas. O texto da tradução original, tal como Almeida escreveu, jamais foi publicado e até agora não se conhece a localização de algum presumido manuscrito dela. As primeiras edições foram impressas com a revisão e aprovação do clero da Igreja Reformada Holandesa. Partindo do que se conhece da vida e da história da tradução de João Ferreira de Almeida, das seis primeiras edições do seu Novo Testamento e das edições do século XVIII do seu Antigo Testamento, esta pesquisa desenvolve um método para obtenção de uma edição crítica da obra de João Ferreira de Almeida, e o testa, produzindo uma versão crítica do Evangelho de Mateus.

Pena de Morte em Portugal-UE, Brasil, Angola, Moçambique, Guiné-Bissau, Cabo Verde, S. Tomé e Princípe, Timor Leste, bem como China, Japão e Coreia do Sul - Direito Público;

1 – Resumo: a questão da pena de morte é tratada de modo muito diverso no mundo. Existem nomeadamente grandes diferenças no que concerne ao Oriente e Ocidente mundiais. Esta pesquisa compara um típico país da União Europeia, Portugal, bem como outros países da lusofonia, Brasil, Angola, Moçambique, Guiné-Bissau, Cabo Verde, S. Tomé e Princípe e Timor Leste com três exemplos asiáticos: a China, o Japão e a Coréia do Sul. Vê-se que não só as leis são bastante diferentes, mas que o que talvez mais difira a nível mundial seja a sua aplicação prática. § 1.1 Abstract: the issue of death penalty is treated very differently in the world. In particular, there are large differences between the Eastern and the Western hemispheres. This study compares a typical country of the European Union, Portugal, as well as other Lusophone countries, i.e. Brazil, Angola, Mozambique, Guinea-Bissau, Cape Verde, Sao Tome and Principe and East Timor, with three Asian examples: China, Japan and South Korea. It is shown that not only the laws are quite different, but that what possibly differs the most on a global level is their practical application.
