description: Background: Hospital associated infections are major problems, which are increasing in incidence and very costly. However, most research has focused only on measuring consequences associated with the initial hospitalization. We explored the long-term consequences of infections in elderly Medicare patients admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) and discharged alive, focusing on: sepsis, pneumonia, central-line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI), and ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP); the relationships between the infections and long-term survival and resource utilization; and how resource utilization was related to impending death during the follow up period. Methods: Clinical data and one year pre- and five years post-index hospitalization Medicare records were examined. Hazard ratios (HR) and healthcare utilization incidence ratios (IR) were estimated from state of the art econometric models. Patient demographics (i.e., age, gender, race and health status) and Medicaid status (i.e., dual eligibility) were controlled for in these models. Results: In 17,537 patients, there were 1,062 sepsis, 1,802 pneumonia, 42 CLABSI and 52 VAP cases. These subjects accounted for 62,554 person-years post discharge. The sepsis and CLABSI cohorts were similar as were the pneumonia and VAP cohorts. Infection was associated with increased mortality (sepsis HR = 1.39, P
SHOULD THE U.S. ADAPT TO THE WORLD? THE FIRST DEBATE ON AMERICAN EXCEPTIONALISM AND ITS IMPACT ON THE FOUNDING OF THE UNITED STATES

description: This paper aims at putting into perspective the recent, post 9/11 debate on the United States’ alleged exceptionalism and its impact on the definition of American foreign policy. It reminds the readers that the United States was born as a result of a similar debate, at a time when a crucial choice for its future was to be made. Indeed, the Founding Fathers discarded the revolutionary idea that America was altogether different from other (European) nations and, as such, could succeed in saving republicanism and concentrate on domestic affairs. As Gordon Wood and Harvey Mansfield have shown, the 1787 version of republicanism stood as a departure from its earlier version, and such a change was necessary to the creation of a full-fledged federation, therefore paving the way to the current powerful Federal Republic. The early failure of the exceptionalist creed did not cause its disappearance, as the contemporary form of exceptionalism demonstrates, but created conditions that made an enduring and powerful influence very difficult.

description: The accuracy of finite difference methods is related to the mesh choice and cell size. Concerning the micromagnetism of nano-objects, we show here that discretization issues can drastically affect the symmetry of the problem and therefore the resulting computed properties of lattices of interacting curved nanomagnets. In this paper, we detail these effects for the multiaxe kagome lattice. Using the Oommf finite difference method, we propose an alternative way of discretizing the nanomagnet shape via a variable moment per cell scheme. This method is shown to be efficient in reducing discretization effects.

description: O crescimento do mercado electrónico e o aumento das comunicações além-fronteiras, resultante sobretudo da difusão da Internet, repercutiu-se, de modo intenso, na indústria de tradução, particularmente, na exigência crescente da tradução de websites, e, sobretudo, na localização de software. Para melhor perceber esta realidade e, de modo a contribuir para uma maior sistematização do conhecimento nesta área, o presente artigo inicia-se com uma breve análise sobre a evolução dos conceitos e dos mercados da tradução e da localização. Procura distinguir entre os diferentes prestadores de serviços de tradução, nomeadamente, empresas e agências e descreve o processo seguido na elaboração de projectos de localização, reconhecendo a tradução como elemento integrante do projecto de localização. Com base na interpretação dos conceitos de projecto e de gestão de projectos descreve-se o processo de gestão de projectos de tradução. Sendo o gestor de projectos o elemento essencial deste processo, analisam-se as funções e competências do mesmo e descrevem-se as tarefas e processos usados por este profissional, tendo em conta o ciclo de vida e os elementos que compõem o processo de gestão de projectos. A partir desta análise propõe-se um modelo de gestão de projectos de tradução/localização baseado na conjugação dos diferentes elementos afectos à gestão e ao gestor de projectos e que procura sintetizar todo o processo inerente à gestão de projectos de tradução/localização. O modelo resulta de dois pontos de vista que se interligam: o da análise e reflexão sobre o estado-da-arte e o da análise empírica dos dados recolhidos no dia-a-dia no universo de trabalho de uma empresa de tradução. Com este modelo, que retrata um processo cíclico e dinâmico, pretende-se, por um lado, ilustrar a complexidade do processo da gestão de projectos e demonstrar a importância das funções do gestor de projectos no vasto universo que é o da tradução e, por outro, desenvolver e propor um modelo de gestão de projectos aplicável a empresas de tradução e de localização.

INVISIBLE CITIES: THE TABLE OF CONTENTS AND THE LABYRINTHS OF REALITY
Creators: name: Serravalle De Sá, Daniel
Publisher: name: POLISSEMA – Revista de Letras do ISCAP
Year: 2019

description: In Invisible Cities (1972), Italo Calvino contrasts a rigid outline structure with a flexible textual content. The tension comprised by the numerical structure proposed in the table of contents stands out against the set of polissemic texts which make up the subject matter of the book. The opposition between form and content point to a fruitful dichotomy in the conception of the novel linked to the theories of the open and closed work. This essay will investigate the structural construction of Invisible Cities by looking at its table of contents, seeking to discuss some models of formalistic representation proposed by the criticism and the specific contribution they may, or may not, provide. The objective is to analyse the pertinence of such theories in the light of historical and cultural approaches. Aiming to uncover possible meanings which arise from the debate, this essay will question to what extent structural complexities can be considered literary if they are not ultimately related to the culture in which a text is found.

VOICES IN SEARCH OF A READER: THE POLYPHONIC WRITING OF ANTÓNIO LOBO ANTUNES
Creators: name: Ferreira De Castro, Carla
Publisher: name: POLISSEMA – Revista de Letras do ISCAP
Year: 2019

description: This paper aims at analysing the writing of the Portuguese author António Lobo Antunes, considered one of the major writers in European Literature with 26 books published, by focusing on the strategies deployed in his texts of creating micro-narratives within the main frame, and conveying the elements of individual and collective memory, past and present, the self and the others, using various voices and silences. Lobo Antunes incorporates in his writing his background as a psychiatrist at a Mental Hospital in Lisbon, until 1985 (when he decided to commit exclusively to writing), his experience as a doctor in the Portuguese Colonial War battlefield, but also the daily routines of the pre and post 25th of April 1974 (Portuguese Revolution) with subtle and ironic details of the life of the middle and upper class of Lisbon’s society: from the traumas of the war to the simple story of the janitor, or the couple who struggles to keep their marriage functional, everything serves as material to develop and interweave a complex plot, that a lot of readers find too enwrapped and difficult to follow through. Some excerpts taken from his first three novels and books of Chronicles and his later novel – Ontem não te Vi em Babilónia (2006) – will be put forward to exemplify the complexity of the writing and the main difficulties of the reader, lost in a multitude of narrators’ voices. Recently, Lobo Antunes has commented on his work stating: What I write can be read in the darkness. This paper aims at throwing some light by unfolding some of the strategies employed to defy new borders in the process of reading.

Review of Brian McGuinness (ed.), Language, Logic and Formalization of Knowledge [Gaeta, Bibliotheca, 1998]

description: This volume collects the text of a lecture by Michael Dummett, held in Siena, Italy in September 1997, followed by eleven papers from a symposium on "Language, Logic and Formalization of Knowledge: 100 years after Frege and Peano", held immediately thereafter. It is a volume of proceedings and suffers from certain usual limits of such books. Overall, however, the volume contains more than enough interesting material. Dummett’s lecture (‘Meaning and Justification’) is a short but crisp presentation of his views on the theory of meaning. The first part reviews Dummett’s criticisms of truth-conditional theories and outlines the motivations for a justificationist account: to understand a sentence is not to know that something must be the case in order for an utterance of that sentence to be true; it is to know how to use the sentence, how to recognize evidence for it, how to act on the truth of it. Dummett’s lecture is designed as a proem to the symposium, so the emphasis is on Frege’s version of truth-conditionalism rather than on Davidson’s. And Dummett insists on one thesis in particular, namely, that what blocked Frege from coming up with a justificationist theory of meaning of the right sort was “his unshakable commitment to the principle of bivalence as governing a scientific language”.
Kaluza-Klein wormholes with the compactified fifth dimension

description: We consider wormhole solutions in five-dimensional Kaluza-Klein gravity in the presence of a massless ghost four-dimensional scalar field. The system possesses two types of topological nontriviality connected with the presence of the scalar field and of a magnetic charge. Mathematically, the presence of the charge appears in the fact that the $S^3$ part of a spacetime metric is the Hopf bundle $S^3 \rightarrow S^2$ with fibre $S^1$. We show that the fifth dimension spanned on the sphere $S^1$ is compactified in the sense that asymptotically, at large distances from the throat, the size of $S^1$ is equal to some constant, the value of which can be chosen to lie, say, in the Planck region. Then, from the four-dimensional point of view, such a wormhole contains a radial magnetic (monopole) field, and an asymptotic four-dimensional observer sees a wormhole with the compactified fifth dimension.

description: Using the universe of patient transitions from inpatient hospital care to skilled nursing facilities and home health care in 2005, we show how integration eliminates task misallocation problems between organizations. We find that vertical integration allows hospitals to shift patient recovery tasks downstream to lower-cost organizations by discharging patients earlier (and in poorer health) and increasing post-hospitalization service intensity. Although integration facilitates a shift in the allocation of tasks and resources, health outcomes either improved or were unaffected by integration on average. The evidence suggests that integration solves coordination problems that arise in market exchange through improvements in the allocation of tasks across care settings.

description: Through an optical campaign performed at 4 telescopes located in the northern and the southern hemispheres, we have obtained optical spectroscopy for 75 counterparts of unclassified or poorly studied hard X-ray emitting objects detected with Swift/BAT and listed in the 54 month Palermo BAT catalogue. All these objects have also observations taken with Swift/XRT, ROSAT or Chandra satellites which allowed us to reduce the high energy error box and pinpoint the most likely optical counterpart/s. We find that 69 sources in our sample are Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs); of them, 35 are classified as type 1 (with broad and narrow emission lines), 33 are classified as type 2 (with only narrow emission lines) and one is an high redshift QSO; the remaining 6 objects are galactic cataclysmic variables (CVs). Among type 1 AGNs, 32 are objects of intermediate Seyfert type (1.2-1.9) and one is Narrow Line Seyfert 1 galaxy; for 29 out of 35 type 1 AGNs, we have been able to estimate the central black hole mass and the Eddington ratio. Among type 2 AGNs, two display optical features typical of the LINER class, 3 are classified as transition objects, 1 is a starburst galaxy and 2 are instead X-ray bright, optically normal galaxies. All galaxies classified in this work are relatively nearby objects (0.006 - 0.213) except for one at redshift 1.137.

description: O6-Alkylguanine DNA alkyltransferase (AGT) plays an important role in the repair of alkylating agent-induced DNA damage and protection from the carcinogenic effects of environmental agents. To examine the importance of the AGT codon 143 and codon 160 polymorphisms in risk for lung cancer and to assess the prevalence of these polymorphisms in different racial groups, we performed genotype analysis of lung cancer patients and matched controls. The prevalence of the AGT143Val allele in controls was 0.07 in Caucasians and 0.03 in African Americans. The AGT143Val allele was not detected in an unmatched Asian control cohort. The prevalence of the AGT160Arg variant allele was 0.01 in Caucasians, 0.02 in African Americans, and 0.03 in Asians. A marginally significant association was observed between the AGT codon 143 (isoleucine/valine) genotype and risk for lung cancer (odds ratio = 2.1; 95% confidence interval = 1.01– 4.7). The prevalence of the AGT160Arg variant allele was similar in lung cancer cases versus matched controls. These results suggest that the AGT codon 143 polymorphism may play an important role in risk for lung cancer.

description: The daily access to news broadcast is something that, generally speaking, we do not abstain ourselves from, whether it is to be aware of what is going on in our country or to be informed about international events. But are we attentive to how the information about those events, namely those that occur outside Portugal, reaches us? How is that information handled – and who handles it – until we have it at our disposal? Is the audience aware that a large part of the news must be translated and must have a linguistic treatment? And how can we describe that same translation and the way it is presented? This case study is just an example of translation’s role and its crucial presence on TV news broadcast, considering the way translation is processed, how it is barely noticed – or not –, how it influences the construction of the story and how the story influences the translation process. This case study was presented at the 2nd International Conference “Media for All”, with the theme “Text on Air, Text on Screen”, which took place at the Polytechnic Institute of Leiria, on 7-9 November 2007.

description: Background
 In recent years several Codes of Conduct for Research Integrity were developed or revised. However, having a code does not imply that all stakeholders are aware of the current standards, let alone live up to them.
 The INSPIRE project (Inventory in the Netherlands of Stakeholders’ Practices and Initiatives on Research integrity to set an Example)1 aims to collect, classify and share initiatives to foster research integrity, with a view to inspire and enable. A checklist is developed to:
 - Structure a toolbox2 of initiatives and the information included;
 - Assess initiatives on feasibility and usefulness;
 - Assist initiators in the development of initiatives.
 Methods
 A 3-round Delphi study was used to reach consensus on the checklist. A Delphi is a structured group process that allows for individual differences and changes of views, to ultimately deal with a complex issue.
 The first round aimed to identify relevant characteristics of the checklist, relevant items for the taxonomy of initiatives in the toolbox, and indicators of quality, feasibility and suitability of initiatives. Round two focussed on operationalisation of the taxonomy and the abovementioned indicators.
 The first draft of the checklist was piloted in a workshop at the 6th World Conference on Research Integrity. This provided additional input for the development of the checklist. Subsequently INSPIRE’s advisory group gave feedback on the renewed draft. A third Delphi round is planned with the purpose of finetuning the checklist.
 Results
 At the time of writing this abstract, the second round of the Delphi study is finished. The checklist will be finalised after the third round and presented at the REWARD|EQUATOR conference. The current draft consists two main assessment items (potential effectiveness; potential to be implemented), and the classification is split in four classifiers (type; audience; participation level; topic) and a reporting guideline of 15 categories and six open ended topics.
 Conclusions
 The development of a checklist that is applicable to a broad spectrum of initiatives and stakeholders is challenging. The Delphi and the workshop have yielded plenty of valuable input and shaped the checklist into an instrument that is supported by a wide audience.

description: We present GLIMPSE - Gravitational Lensing Inversion and MaPping with Sparse Estimators - a new algorithm to generate density reconstructions in three dimensions from photometric weak lensing measurements. This is an extension of earlier work in one dimension aimed at applying compressive sensing theory to the inversion of gravitational lensing measurements to recover 3D density maps. Using the assumption that the density can be represented sparsely in our chosen basis - 2D transverse wavelets and 1D line of sight dirac functions - we show that clusters of galaxies can be identified and accurately localised and characterised using this method. Throughout, we use simulated data consistent with the quality currently attainable in large surveys. We present a thorough statistical analysis of the errors and biases in both the redshifts of detected structures and their amplitudes. The GLIMPSE method is able to produce reconstructions at significantly higher resolution than the input data; in this paper we show reconstructions with 6x finer redshift resolution than the shear data. Considering cluster simulations with 0.05 <= z <= 0.75 and 3e13/h Msun <= Mvir <= 1e15/h Msun, we show that the redshift extent of detected peaks is typically 1-2 pixels, or Dz

description: We have developed an algorithm (x2abundance) to derive the lunar surface chemistry from X-ray fluorescence (XRF) data for the Chandrayaan-1 X-ray Spectrometer (C1XS) experiment. The algorithm converts the observed XRF line fluxes to elemental abundances with uncertainties. We validated the algorithm in the laboratory using high Z elements (20 < Z < 30) published in Athiray et al. (2013). In this paper, we complete the exercise of validation using samples containing low Z elements, which are also analogous to the lunar surface composition (ie., contains major elements between 11 < Z < 30). The paper summarizes results from XRF experiments performed on Lunar simulant (JSC-1A) and anorthosite using a synchrotron beam excitation. We also discuss results from the validation of x2abundance using Monte Carlo simulation (GEANT4 XRF simulation).

description: Background: Antiretroviral therapy (ART) initiation in eligible HIV-infected pregnant women is an important intervention to promote maternal and child health. Increasing the duration of ART received before delivery plays a major role in preventing vertical HIV transmission, but pregnant women across Africa experience significant delays in starting ART, partly due the perceived need to deliver ART counseling and patient education before ART initiation. We examined whether delaying ART to provide pre-ART counseling was associated with improved outcomes among HIV-infected women in Cape Town, South Africa. Methods: We undertook a retrospective cohort study of 490 HIV-infected pregnant women referred to initiate treatment at an urban ART clinic. At this clinic all patients including pregnant women are screened by a clinician and then undergo three sessions of counseling and patient education prior to starting treatment, commonly introducing delays of 2–4 weeks before ART initiation. Data on viral suppression and retention in care after ART initiation were taken from routine clinic records. Results: A total of 382 women initiated ART before delivery (78%); ART initiation before delivery was associated with earlier gestational age at presentation to the ART service (p

Les personnages, le temps, l’espace, le langage, les silences, tout y sert à exprimer l’absurde de la condition humaine. Dans ces deux œuvres, l’air est plein de cris de révolte. Les plaintes deviennent le langage naturel de l’humanité souffrante, parce que, après tout, ni Godot ni le salut n’arrivent jamais.

description: We report the successful growth and the impurity scattering effect of single crystals of Na(Fe$_{0.97-x}$Co$_{0.03}$T$_x$)As (T=Cu, Mn). The temperature dependence of DC magnetization at high magnetic fields is measured for different concentrations of Cu and Mn. Detailed analysis based on the Curie-Weiss law indicates that the Cu doping weakens the average magnetic moments, while doping Mn enhances the local magnetic moments greatly, suggesting that the former may be non- or very weak magnetic impurities, and the latter give rise to magnetic impurities. However, it is found that both doping Cu and Mn will enhance the residual resistivity and suppress the superconductivity at the same rate in the low doping region, being consistent with the prediction of the S$^{\pm}$ model. For the Cu-doped system, the superconductivity is suppressed completely at a residual resistivity $ρ_0$ = 0.87 m$Ω$ cm at which a strong localization effect is observed. However, in the case of Mn doping, the behavior of suppression to \emph{T}$_{c}$ changes from a fast speed to a slow one and keeps superconductive even up to a residual resistivity of 2.86 m$Ω$ cm. Clearly the magnetic Mn impurities are even not as detrimental as the non- or very weak magnetic Cu impurities to superconductivity in the high doping regime.

Diversification, Coordination Costs and Organizational Rigidity: Evidence from Microdata
Creators: name: Rawley, Evan
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2007
Subjects: Transportation--Planning
Economics

description: This paper examines the impact of coordination costs and organizational rigidity on the returns to diversification. The central thesis is that coordination costs offset economies of scope, while organizational rigidity increases coordination costs, further constraining economies of scope. The empirical tests of this proposition identify the effects of coordination and organizational rigidity costs on business-unit and firm productivity, using novel data from the Economic Census on taxicab and limousine firms. The key results show that coordination and organizational rigidity costs are economically and statistically significant, while organizational rigidity itself accounts for a 16% decrease in paid ride-miles per taxicab in incumbent diversifiers, controlling for the other costs and benefits of diversification and incumbency. The findings suggest that coordination costs, in general, and organizational rigidity costs, in particular, limit the scope of the firm
DIANE ARBUS: «THE WONDERFUL WIZARD OF ODDS» OR THE POETICS OF THE I (EYE)
Creators: name: Duarte, José
Publisher: name: POLISSEMA – Revista de Letras do ISCAP
Year: 2019

description: Diane Arbus’ photographs are mainly about difference. Most of the time she is trying ‘[…] to suppress, or at least reduce, moral and sensory queasiness’ (Sontag 1977: 40) in order to represent a world where the subject of the photograph is not merely the ‘other’ but also the I. Her technique does not coax her subjects into natural poses. Instead she encourages them to be strange and awkward. By posing for her, the revelation of the self is identified with what is odd. This paper aims at understanding the geography of difference that, at the same time, is also of resistance, since Diane Arbus reveals what was forcefully hidden by bringing it into light in such a way that it is impossible to ignore. Her photographs display a poetic beauty that is not only of the ‘I’ but also of the ‘eye’. The world that is depicted is one in which we are all the same. She “atomizes” reality by separating each element and ‘Instead of showing identity between things which are different […] everybody is shown to look the same.’ (Sontag 1977: 47). Furthermore, this paper analyses some of Arbus’ photographs so as to explain this point of view, by trying to argue that between rejecting and reacting against what is standardized she does not forget the geography of the body which is also a geography of the self. While creating a new imagetic topos, where what is trivial becomes divine, she also presents the frailty of others as our own.

The Tensor Track, III
Creators: name: Rivasseau, Vincent
Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: Mathematical Physics (math-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We provide an informal up-to-date review of the tensor track approach to quantum gravity. In a long introduction we describe in simple terms the motivations for this approach. Then the many recent advances are summarized, with emphasis on some points (Gromov-Hausdorff limit, Loop vertex expansion, Osterwalder-Schrader positivity...) which, while important for the tensor track program, are not detailed in the usual quantum gravity literature. We list open questions in the conclusion and provide a rather extended bibliography.

description: L’auteur entreprend l’approche de l’importance particulière du rapport aux espaces habités ou inhabités dans l’imaginaire et la construction narrative des textes fictionnels de l’écrivain belge francophone contemporain Eugène Savitzkaya de Mentir (1977) jusqu’à En vie (1994). Il s’agit de souligner la pertinence de l’habitat en tant que support des imaginaires de l’enfance et de la poétisation du quotidien. L’espace s’avère en effet un repère symbolique et poétique chez Savitzkaya ; ce qui lui permet de s’exprimer et d’exprimer son enfance sur un mode autofictionnel.

description: We study the stability of orbits in large Boolean networks with given complex topology. We impose no restrictions on the form of the update rules, which may be correlated with local topological properties of the network. While recent past work has addressed the separate effects of nontrivial network topology and certain special classes of update rules on stability, only crude results exist about how these effects interact. We present a widely applicable solution to this problem. Numerical experiments confirm our theory and show that local correlations between topology and update rules can have profound effects on the qualitative behavior of these systems.

Troubadour Song as Performance: A Context for Guiraut Riquier’s “Pus sabers no’m val ni sens”
Creators: name: Boynton, Susan Leslie
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2012
Subjects: Music

description: The songs of the troubadours present the fundamental challenge of understanding
poetry as music. Although the Old Occitan lyric corpus was a sung
tradition from its origins in the twelfth century, we do not know exactly
how it sounded; the poetry and musical notation of troubadour song are
only skeletal vestiges awaiting completion by the imagination. Miniature
biographies of the troubadours known as vidas, which combine elements
of fact and fiction, describe some poets as performers who sang and played
instruments, while others apparently did not. Most manuscript sources of
troubadour song lack musical notation; the few chansonniers that do include
it provide the pitches and text underlay for one strophe of melody, with the
remaining strophes of text laid out in prose format.
The absence of music from so much of the written transmission of the
corpus can be attributed to factors such as predominantly oral transmission
of the melodies (resulting in their loss as the tradition waned) and the
circumstances of compilation, which favored the presentation of the songs
as poems. The repertory travelled in the thirteenth century to northern
France, Italy, the Iberian peninsula and beyond through the movement
of poets, singers, patrons, and not least, the formation of the manuscript
tradition. As Marisa Galvez notes, the very concept of a troubadour corpus
as an authorial tradition emerged from the chansonniers. The constitution
of poetic personae in these manuscripts stands in for the construction of
poetic agency and voice that would have occurred in performance (2012:
59–64). Many nonmusical, nonverbal components of performance that
are now irrecoverable were as much part of the song as the melody and
text, and were probably embedded in its early reception: the performers’
appearance and gestures, their relationship to the audience, their present
or absent patrons.
O TERRÍVEL NASCIMENTO DA BELEZA: A CRIAÇÃO LITERÁRIA EM DIVERSOS AUTORES

description: De onde brota a inspiração para baladas de amor e canções de guerra, lendas e narrativas, tragédias e comédias? Ao longo de séculos, escritores e leitores interrogaram-se acerca do nascimento da beleza. Neste artigo, abordo essa questão intrigante, em quatro etapas: a) Examino algumas personificações criadas por Hesíodo, Homero, Luís de Camões e Federico García Lorca para descreverem a inspiração; b) Exploro as estratégias utilizadas por Samuel Coleridge, Salvador Dalí e William Burroughs, para penetrar no reino da fantasia, o inconsciente; c) Apresento as explicações científicas propostas por Sigmund Freud, Carl Jung e Robert Sperry para o impulso criativo; d) Para concluir, menciono as razões que levaram Fernando Pessoa, Eugénio de Andrade e Emily Dickinson a desconfiarem da musa inspiradora, preferindo o esforço que corrige a emoção e gera a obra de arte. Seguindo uma perspectiva comparada, o meu objectivo é mostrar diferentes formas de perceber a criatividade literária. Para tanto, recorro ao trabalho dos escritores e cientistas atrás mencionados e, naturalmente, à minha opinião.

PELAS VEREDAS DA LUSO-BRASILIDADE: RESSONÂNCIAS DO BRASIL NAS OBRAS DE FERREIRA DE CASTRO E MIGUEL TORGA
Creators: name: Nunes Gago, Dora Maria
Publisher: name: POLISSEMA – Revista de Letras do ISCAP
Year: 2019

description: Ferreira de Castro (1898-1974) e Miguel Torga (1907-1995) viveram ambos, no início da adolescência, a dura experiência de emigração para o Brasil. O primeiro partiu com apenas doze anos, em 1911, o segundo, com treze, em 1920. Ambos procuraram o “Eldorado”, cruzaram o Atlântico num vapor, cresceram, amadureceram, regressaram a Portugal, revisitaram novamente o Brasil e escreveram sobre essas vivências, como é corroborado por Emigrantes e A Selva de Ferreira de Castro, o Diário, A Criação do Mundo, Traço de União de Miguel Torga que constituem o nosso corpus de trabalho. No presente artigo, analisaremos à luz da imagologia, um dos métodos da literatura comparada, que visa precisamente o estudo das imagens, as representações do Brasil que emergem da obra destes dois escritores. Nesta sequência, analisaremos, numa óptica comparatista, a ficcionalização das vivências dos autores, a trajectórias das suas personagens, contemplando, na configuração do espaço estrangeiro, as primeiras impressões e sua evolução, as descrições da paisagem, do povo, da vida e da cultura brasileiras. Além disso, seguiremos os caminhos da alteridade para desvendarmos igualmente o modo como é visto o “outro”, e a forma como se inscreve no discurso. Em suma, analisaremos o impacto da vivência da emigração, a importância desempenhada pelo país de acolhimento na obra dos dois escritores supramencionados, atendendo às ressonâncias da luso-brasilidade, alicerçadoras de uma maior abertura e dum diálogo mais próximo com o Brasil.

description: Kinetic Monte Carlo (kMC) simulations have emerged as a key tool for microkinetic modeling in heterogeneous catalysis and other materials applications. Systems, where site-specificity of all elementary reactions allows a mapping onto a lattice of discrete active sites, can be addressed within the particularly efficient lattice kMC approach. To this end we describe the versatile kmos software package, which offers a most user-friendly implementation, execution, and evaluation of lattice kMC models of arbitrary complexity in one- to three-dimensional lattice systems, involving multiple active sites in periodic or aperiodic arrangements, as well as site-resolved pairwise and higher-order lateral interactions. Conceptually, kmos achieves a maximum runtime performance which is essentially independent of lattice size by generating code for the efficiency-determining local update of available events that is optimized for a defined kMC model. For this model definition and the control of all runtime and evaluation aspects kmos offers a high-level application programming interface. Usage proceeds interactively, via scripts, or a graphical user interface, which visualizes the model geometry, the lattice occupations and rates of selected elementary reactions, while allowing on-the-fly changes of simulation parameters. We demonstrate the performance and scaling of kmos with the application to kMC models for surface catalytic processes, where for given operation conditions (temperature and partial pressures of all reactants) central simulation outcomes are catalytic activity and selectivities, surface composition, and mechanistic insight into the occurrence of individual elementary processes in the reaction network.
