À guisa de introdução: tendências recentes na tradução de poesia grega e latina no Brasil
Authors: Oliva Neto João Angelo 
Published: November 2020

Cadernos de Literatura em Tradução neste número 15 acolhe praticamente apenas versões de poemas gregos e latinos antigos, que não tinham, todavia, deixado de comparecer em números anteriores. Aqui, os tradutores foram convidados a expor, com a detença que lhes aprouvesse, os critérios por que nortearam a tradução, fossem princípios, fossem apenas balizas práticas, ambos igualmente eficientes à tarefa, como bem sabem os que se metem nesse ofício.

Published: November 2020

Background:
High intake of marine n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) has been associated with reduced risk of cardiovascular events; however, this has not been confirmed in patients with a recent acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Elderly patients are at particularly increased cardiovascular risk after myocardial infarction, but few trials address this group specifically. Omega-3 fatty acids hold the potential to reduce cardiovascular events with limited adverse effects in this vulnerable group. The hypothesis was that daily addition of 1.8g n-3 PUFA to standard of care secondary prophylaxis in elderly patients who have survived an AMI would reduce the risk of subsequent cardiovascular events during 2 years follow-up.

Methods:
The OMEMI trial (Omega-3 Fatty acids in Elderly with Myocardial Infarction) is an investigator-initiated, multicenter, randomized clinical trial adding 1.8 g n-3 PUFA (930 mg eicosapentaenoic acid and 660 mg docosohexaenoic acid) versus placebo (corn oil) daily to standard of care in patients aged 70 to 82 years with recent (2–8 weeks) AMI. The primary endpoint was a composite of nonfatal AMI, unscheduled revascularization, stroke, all-cause death, heart failure hospitalization after 2 years. The secondary outcome was new atrial fibrillation. The safety outcome was major bleeding. Serum fatty acids were measured as biomarkers of adherence.

Results:

In total, 1027 patients were randomized. Follow-up data were available for 1014 patients who were included in the intention-to-treat analysis. Mean±SD age was 75±3.6 years, 294 (29%) were female, and mean triglycerides were 111.4±61.9 mg/dL. The primary endpoint occurred in 108 (21.4%) patients on n-3 PUFA versus 102 (20.0%) on placebo (hazard ratio, 1.08 [95% CI, 0.82–1.41];
P
=0.60). The secondary endpoint occurred in 28 (7.2%) patients on n-3 PUFA versus 15 (4.0%) on placebo (1.84 [0.98–3.45];
P
=0.06). Median changes in eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid were +87% and +16% for n-3 PUFA versus −13% and −8% for placebo. Major bleeding occurred in 54 (10.7%) and 56 (11.0%) in the n-3 PUFA and placebo groups, respectively (
P
=0.87). Similar results were found in per-protocol analysis (n=893).

Conclusions:
We could not detect reduction in clinical events in our elderly patients with recent AMI who were treated with 1.8 g n-3 PUFAs daily for 2 years.

Plasminogen Deficiency and Amiloride Mitigate Angiotensin II–Induced Hypertension in Type 1 Diabetic Mice Suggesting Effects Through the Epithelial Sodium Channel
Authors: Andersen Henrik , Hansen Maria Høj , Buhl Kristian B. , Stæhr Mette , Friis Ulla G. , Enggaard Camilla , Supramaniyam Shanya , Lund Ida K. , Svenningsen Per , Hansen Pernille B. L. , Jensen Boye L. 
Published: November 2020

Background

Diabetic nephropathy is a common diabetes mellitus complication associated with hypertension, proteinuria, and excretion of urinary plasmin that activates the epithelial sodium channel, ENaC,
in vitro
. Here we hypothesized that the deletion of plasminogen and amiloride treatment protect against hypertension in diabetes mellitus.

Methods and Results

Male plasminogen knockout (plasminogen‐deficient [Plg
−/−
]) and wild‐type mice were rendered diabetic with streptozotocin. Arterial blood pressure was recorded continuously by indwelling catheters before and during 10 days of angiotensin II infusion (ANGII; 30–60 ng/kg per minute). The effect of amiloride infusion (2 mg/kg per day, 4 days) was tested in wild‐type, diabetic ANGII‐treated mice. Streptozotocin increased plasma and urine glucose concentrations and 24‐hour urine albumin and plasminogen excretion. Diabetic Plg
−/−
mice displayed larger baseline albuminuria and absence of urine plasminogen. Baseline mean arterial blood pressure did not differ between groups. Although ANGII elevated blood pressure in wild‐type, diabetic wild‐type, and Plg
−/−
control mice, ANGII did not change blood pressure in diabetic Plg
−/−
mice. Compared with ANGII infusion alone, wild‐type ANGII‐infused diabetic mice showed blood pressure reduction upon amiloride treatment. There was no difference in plasma renin, ANGII, aldosterone, tissue prorenin receptor, renal inflammation, and fibrosis between groups. Urine from wild‐type mice evoked larger amiloride‐sensitive current than urine from Plg
−/−
mice with or without diabetes mellitus. Full‐length γ‐ENaC and α‐ENaC subunit abundances were not changed in kidney homogenates, but the 70 kDa γ‐ENaC cleavage product was increased in diabetic versus nondiabetic mice.

Conclusions
Plasmin promotes hypertension in diabetes mellitus with albuminuria likely through the epithelial sodium channel.
Social facilitation in short-tailed fruit bats, Carollia perspicillata (Linnaeus)
Authors: Wright Genevieve Spanjer , Wilkinson Gerald S. , Moss Cynthia F. 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
Group-living animals can potentially enhance their foraging performance and efficiency by obtaining information from others. Using PIT-tag data to study foraging behaviour in individual bats, we tested short-tailed fruit bats, Carollia perspicillata (Linnaeus), for evidence of local enhancement or social facilitation. To discriminate between these phenomena, we manipulated the presence of conspecifics while individuals searched for food. We quantified the time to find food and the order and sex of bats accessing the food, and any consistent associations between bats. Presence of conspecifics decreased the time needed to find food. We found no evidence that pairs of individuals consistently fed together; however, bats of the same sex tended to feed closer in time with one another. The same individuals consistently accessed the food first, and males found food more quickly than females. Our results provide evidence of social facilitation, with bats finding food more quickly in a group than alone.
Babylonian and Indian Wisdoms in Islamicate Culture
Authors: Langermann Y. Tzvi 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
The interaction of Islamicate civilization with those civilizations that preceded it or were contemporaneous with it has focused for the most part on Hellenistic civilization, and the huge body of scientific and philosophical literature which was translated and absorbed in the first centuries after the appearance of Islam. This paper aims to present two small but much needed correctives to this understanding. In the first section I argue that the “Greek” astronomy that was translated into Arabic ought more correctly to be described as Greco-Babylonian astronomy. In the second I turn to India: not only was a great deal of Indian knowledge absorbed at the time of the great translation movement, we must recall that the exchanges with India carried on well beyond the early Abbasids. I illustrate these points with some new materials in the fields of medicine, philosophy, and alchemy.
Autobiographische Ungarnbilder aus dem Exil im Vergleich
Authors: Tüskés Gábor 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
In this article, the author examines three autobiographical texts. These represent three different languages, three subgenres and two writers. The leading question is which patterns, motives and figures of thought determine the image of a country for the examined writer, and which of these become symbols of the fatherland in hindsight. The author’s main goal is therefore not to test the texts’ factual truth. Instead, three variants of emotional fictionalisation of patriotism are compared. By doing so, the author seeks to answer the question how factual truth is used, how autofiction and fictionality are created, and by which means and for what goal these images of the abandoned fatherland have become fictionalised. This question is treated in the context of the Habsburg dynasty’s imperial ambitions and of national resistance to it.
Körpererfahrung und Geisteraustreibung
Authors: Faßhauer Vera 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
Wearing the features of the artist’s own contorted face, Messerschmidt’s grimacing Head Pieces have been mystifying their viewers for centuries. Most interpreters have regarded them from a purely artistic point of view and tended to certify the sculptor’s serious mental issues. This article takes an interdisciplinary and intermedial approach to Messerschmidt’s busts by paralleling them with the diary records of the physician Senckenberg, which likewise mirror the author’s meticulous self-observation and are consequently perceived with similar irritation. It is shown that the frequent pathologization of both Messerschmidt’s and Senckenberg’s work derives not least from the decidedly non-academic nature of their self-studies, which they felt were impeded by the temptations of daemons jealous of their insight into arcane knowledge. Rather than passing verdicts on the authors’ mental health or the validity of their religious and professional convictions, their motivations are to be considered according to their own early modern world view.
“TeVtonICos Mars tVrbat Vb[I]qVe Dynastas.”
Authors: Hanstein Michael 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
The following study examines 20 chronograms addressing the Thirty Years’ War (Dreißigjaehriger Krieg, 1618–1648). Most of them were written in Latin by one of three authors, Samuel Gloner, Elias Kolb and Timotheus Polus, who aspired higher employment at Strasbourg University. References to the Thirty Years’ War ranged from general references (e.g. the biblical “vale of tears”) to the mentioning of specific places or historic figures such as King Gustaf Adolf ii of Sweden. Chronograms as part of an epithalamium expressed best wishes for bride and groom. Chronograms as part of an epicedium referred to Christian religion or neostoic philosophy.
Fallende Körper
Authors: Urban Felix 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
It is part of the standard repertoire of Eulenspiegel research to point out that the jest novel Ein kurtzweilig Lesen von Dil Ulenspiegel (1510/15) places a highly contradictory protagonist of heterogenous motivations at the centre of its plot, which oscillates between vita and episode sequence. Rarely, however, have the instruments of structuralist narratology been used systematically to investigate how this heterogeneity and contradiction comes about and what strategies the text uses to connect the individual episodes. Using the example of the recurring element of ‘falling bodies’, this article analyzes the eventfulness, the production of coherence and the function of certain action patterns in the individual episodes. One central hypothesis of this article is that by means of recurrence and variation falling bodies establish a literary paradigm in the novel keeping a central theme of the text present: the dissociation of a superior protagonist who eludes the demands of the community on his body.
Animal Release and the Sacrificial Ethos in Inner Asia
Authors: Swancutt Katherine 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
Animal release is often understood as the practice of freeing an animal from human consumption or the burden of labour. Typically associated with various Buddhist or Daoist cosmologies in which liberating an animal is a merit-making act, animal release tends to be conceptualised in altruistic terms. Yet the diverse forms that sacrifice and animal release take across Inner Asia suggest that the focus of analysis sometimes shifts from a concern with freeing animals to protecting the human imperative to live. Introducing new ethnography on the ethical underpinnings of sacrifice among Buryats in northeast Mongolia and the Nuosu of southwest China, I propose that animal release can be an act of restrained violence that evokes the mythopoetic contours of human–animal relations, animal sentience and human self-preservation. Offering case studies on scapegoats, deferred sacrifice, and contingent forms of slaughter, I show how Buryats and Nuosu manage the ethical tensions posed by sacrifice.
The Melodious Hoofbeat
Authors: Hutchins K.G. 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
This paper examines cases in which traditional musicians in Mongolia bring the perspectives of rural non-human animals into urban music institutions, troubling the colonial nature–culture and urban–rural divisions around which they were designed. In Mongolia, music has played a central role in the socialist modernisation projects of the twentieth century, as well as the protests that led to the country’s transition to parliamentary democracy in 1990. These projects involved the formation of urban-based national conservatories and orchestras designed around a western model that attempts to separate nature from culture. How, then, do multispecies relationships play out in a post-socialist context, where capitalist and socialist modernities have each left their mark? In this paper I argue that Mongolian musicians incorporate non-human animals into musical heritage institutions in ways that both depend on and resist the interplay between socialist and capitalist colonial projects.
The Care Work of Balance
Authors: Oehler Alex 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
This paper explores the relationship between herding and hunting practices in the mountainous environment of Indigenous Soyots of Okinskii Raion (Oka), Buryatia. It traces an animistic approach to the concept of balance among sentient entities, including landscapes, identifying it as an underlying ethic governing the relationships of domestic and non-domestic animals with humans. Drawing on this ethic of care, the paper identifies practices directed at achieving balance as a form of resistance to assertions of outright control over living beings. The author begins by problematising the concept of care, pointing to basic ontological differences identified in anthropological literature, before addressing how care and balance are related. Here care is understood as a matter of attentiveness: a skill that links herding and hunting practices. The paper then delves into three concrete areas of care: the care of creating life in living and calving spaces; the care of holding life together through material implements and invocation of intangible protective forces; and, finally, care for species diversity in local yak and hybrid breeding practices.
Artefact Transfers
Authors: Lang Maria-Katharina , Tsetsentsolmon Baatarnaran 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
The paper explores the flows of artefacts between public and private settings in alternative political and social relations in Mongolia. It investigates sacred places such as Buddhist temples and monasteries as well as museums (which were former temples) and examines movements of objects such as Buddhist figures, sacred books and ethnographic objects. The ‘artefact transfers’ not only relate to massive movements such as the displacement of sacred objects or deities (burkhan), their transformation into museum objects and the concealing of items underground, but the phrase also implies changes in perception, value and attitudes towards artefacts. Material culture also needed to be fitted into another order due to the process of ‘modernisation’ and societal transformation in Mongolia. Objects that suddenly appeared ambivalent had to be dealt with in order to conform to new or changing ideologies. Following the ‘biographies’ and ‘efficacy’ of artefacts, the authors argue that, through various cultural and economic exchanges in translocal networks, changes of perception and value activate artefact transfers.
Pentecostalism in Mongolia
Authors: Austin Denise A. , Davaadar Togtokh-Ulzii 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
Pentecostal missionaries arrived in Mongolia as early as 1910 but the socialist government expelled all missionaries in 1924. By the time socialism collapsed in 1990, there were no more than 20 Christians in the whole nation. However, estimates suggest that there are now around 100,000 adherents, most of whom are Pentecostal. While some scholars have analysed the history of Christianity in Mongolia, little research has explored this significant subset. Mongolia Assemblies of God (MAOG—Монголын Бурханы Чуулган) was one of the first and fastest growing Christian denominations. It currently comprises around 2000 adherents, as well as over 200 graduates from its ministry training college. Using MAOG as a case study, this research argues that the rise of Pentecostalism in Mongolia is owing to its ‘ends of the earth’ mission; cultural protest movement; lure of modernity; imagined community; empowerment through transnational mobility; theology of divine ‘calling’; and contribution toward civil society.
Mongol Familiarisation with European Medical Practices in the Nineteenth–Twentieth Centuries
Authors: Norov Batsaikhan , Batsaikhan Binderiya , Usukhbayar Batchimeg 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
It was primarily Russian activities in Mongolia between 1860 and 1921, reflecting its geopolitical interests, that introduced European medical practices to the Mongols. Competing alongside other European powers, the Russian Government capitalised on conditions within Mongolia to increase Mongolia’s dependency on Russia. Thus, the Russian government’s motives for medical intervention, like that of other European groups, were mainly political, economic and cultural. In the context of Buddhist dogmatism and the expansive territorial distances between the Mongols (a term this paper uses to encompass all people of Mongol ethnicity in northern and central Asia), the reluctance of Russian doctors to disseminate European medical knowledge prevented its spread into Mongolia. Medical intervention was primarily a method of colonisation justified through healthcare support. Ultimately the familiarisation of European medicine in Mongolia was the first crucial step towards the amalgamation of traditional Mongolian and European medical practices after the Mongolian People’s Revolution.
The Urban/Rural Divide in the Early Modern Period
Authors: Arlen Jesse Siragan 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
The major developments of the early modern period had an uneven impact on urban and rural dwellers, leading to divergences in worldview and mentality between the two demographics. This article reflects upon these differences through a microhistorical study of an episode in Joseph Emin’s Life and Adventures, where Emin, an eighteenth-century “port Armenian” encounters Armenian villagers in the Ottoman town of Jinis. My reading of this episode provides a focus for broader reflections on the growing divergences between the viewpoints of a port Armenian like Emin, who was connected to the developments taking place in the early modern world, and that of rural dwellers like the local villagers and priest of Jinis, who were largely disconnected from the same developments.
Familiar Yet Foreign: Armenians in the New Zealand Imagination before the Armenian Genocide
Authors: Jokic Vukan , Armoudian Maria 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
This study of New Zealand newspapers explores the portrayals of Armenia and Armenians from relatively frequent media coverage dating from 1842 and leading up to the beginning of the 1915 Genocide. In this article, we analyze a sample of more than 35,000 archived news articles and discover recurring tropes about Armenians in both local and national publications. This article breaks new ground in the field of Armenian studies by shedding light on these narratives present in New Zealand. Furthermore, this article serves as an aide-mémoire of a special relationship between New Zealanders and Armenians, which has been lost in the reframing of history.

AbstractBosoite (IMA2014-023) is a new silica clathrate mineral containing hydrocarbon molecules in its crystal structure. Bosoite can be considered structurally as a silica analogue of the structure-H gas hydrate, where guest molecules are trapped in cage-like voids constructed of the host framework. The mineral occurs in the Miocene tuffaceous sedimentary rocks at Arakawa, Minami-boso City, Chiba Prefecture, Japan. Bosoite is hexagonal, and it crystallises as an epitaxial intergrowth on chibaite crystals, with the {0001} of bosoite parallel to octahedral {111} form of chibaite. Crystals are colourless and transparent with vitreous lustre. The calculated density is 2.04 g/cm3. The empirical formula (based on 2 O apfu and guest molecules assumed as CH4) is Na0.01(Si0.98Al0.02)Σ1.00O2⋅0.50CH4; the end-member formula is SiO2⋅nCxH2x+2. Bosoite has the space groupP6/mmm, with the unit-cell parametersa= 13.9020(3) Å,c= 11.2802(2) Å,V= 1887.99(6) Å3andZ= 34. The crystal structure of bosoite was refined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and converged toR1= 4.26% for the average model andR1= 2.96% for the model where all oxygen sites are split.
