title: Leaf anatomy micromorphometry plasticity and histochemistry of Azadirachta indica during acclimatization

description: Abstract Environmental conditions of grow can modify leaf structure and metabolite production. Neem plants produce a high amount of medicinal metabolites and contain biopesticide terpenoids with low toxicity. However, the high genetic variation and the low material quality, besides the environmental modifications warn to the need of biotechnological techniques to ensure the production of high quality metabolites. The aim was to investigate leaf structural and histochemical characteristics of Azadirachta indica grown in vitro, in vivo and acclimatized condition. It was found anatomical differences among the environments, with higher leaf thickness associated to in vivo conditions, as well as were more evenly distributed stomata. Those modifications did not qualitatively affect the production of medicinal metabolites and biopesticides. Terpenes and tannins were observed in specialized cells called idioblasts, located in the mesophyll and in the midrib region, respectively. Thus, in a qualitative approach, we can affirm that the different environments do not modify metabolites production. Increased production of these bioactive compounds could be achieved by isolation and in vitro culture of idioblasts as a new source of research in plant biotechnology.

title: Acnistus arborescens (Solanaceae): an important food resource for birds in an Atlantic Forest site, Southeastern Brazil

description: Abstract Biotic interactions related to the consumption of floral nectar and fruits as food resource by birds promoting plant pollination and dispersal, are essential for forest ecosystem functioning. The daily interaction of birds with Acnistus arborescens (Solanaceae), a shrub-tree, was studied in the Itatiaia National Park and its surroundings. Reproductive phenology was monthly monitored in eighteen individuals in 2015. During flowering (August to November) and fruiting (September to December) the interaction birds-plant was studied. Flowers were visited by seven hummingbird species and several insects. Fruit set was 87.3%. Thirty-five bird species of eleven families consumed its fruit. Thraupidae with sixteen bird species was the family responsible for most of its frugivory (53.9%). Considering that more than 10% of the birds richness of Itatiaia National Park - INP interacts with A. arborescens, it can be considered an important plant species in maintaining local bird diverstity. Thus, for attracting many birds, A. arborescens can be used in the process of recovery of degraded areas, and also as a focal plant species for environmental education programs and birdwatching.

title: Palynology of Grewioideae species (Malvaceae sensu lato) occurring in the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

description: Abstract The objective of this study was to characterize the pollen morphology of the Grewioideae species occurring in the state of Rio de Janeiro. Pollen grains of 12 species were examined: tribe Apeibeae (Apeiba tibourbou, Corchorus hirsutus, Triumfetta althaeoides, T. grandiflora, T. obscura, T. rhomboidea) and tribe Grewieae (Luehea candicans, L. conwentzii, L. divaricata, L. grandiflora, L. ochrophylla, L. paniculata). The pollen grains were acetolysed, measured, described and illustrated under light microscopy (LM). To observe the surface and opening, pollen grains not acetolysed were analyzed in scanning electron microscope (SEM) and subsequently eletromicrographs. Were characterized pollen grains as the shape, size, opening type, the polarity and the exina constitution. The analyzed species have pollen grains medium to large, isopolar, peroblate to prolate, 3-colporate and reticulated sexine. In pollen key, most species could be separated those attributes palynological. It allows consider that species which were studied here are euripolinic, since it is possible to recognize most species by palynological characteristics. It is believed that the present study provides pollen characteristics data that may help identify the species of Grewioideae that occur in the State of Rio de Janeiro.

title: PRINCESS BRAMBILLA - IMAGES/TEXT

description: Abstract Read the illustrated literary text is simultaneously think pictures and words. This articulation between the written text and pictures adds potential, expands and becomes complex. Coincides with nowadays discussions on Giorgio Agamben’s «contemporary» that add to what adheres to respectively time the displacement and the distance needed to understand it, shakes linear notions of historical chronology. Somehow the coincidence is related to the current interest in the concept of «Nachleben” (survival), which assumes the images of the past ransom, postulated by the art historian Aby Warburg in a research on ancient art of motion characteristics in Renaissance pictures Botticelli’s. For the translation of the Princesa Brambilla – um capriccio segundo Jakob Callot, de E. T. A. Hoffmann, com 8 gravuras cunhadas a partir de moldes originais de Callot (1820) to Portuguese such discussions were fundamental, as I try to present in this article.

title: TRANSLATE TO TEACH LANGUAGE VARIATION IN TREATMENT FORMS OF SPANISH, WHY NOT?

description: Abstract Officially spoken by more than 20 countries, the Spanish language has great linguistic diversity, fact challenging to those who want to teach it or learn it, perhaps translate it to another language. Similarly, Brazilian Portuguese has different linguistic varieties, which is noticeable by observing, for example, the different dialects Northeastern or Southern. This linguistic diversity is reflected in the forms of treatment for 2nd person in both languages. In this way, to have to translate the treatment forms of the Spanish language (tú, vos, usted, vosotros and ustedes) for Portuguese or Portuguese pronouns (tu, você, senhor, vós and vocês) into Spanish, it will be up to the translator consider extralinguistic aspects, to decide the pronoun proper treatment to the public and its translation goals. In this context, this article aims to conduct a dialogue between Translation Studies, Spanish Language Teaching and Sociolinguistics variationist, aiming to highlight the potential to approach these areas for the preparation of didactic proposals on linguistic variation in the treatment forms of Spanish and Portuguese.

title: TRANSCREATION, TRANSCONCEPTUALIZATION AND POETRY

description: Abstract Transcreation is widely used in discussions about translation theory. It was created in a particular cultural context, developed mainly from the Concrete Poetry in view of a specific application befitting to its proposals. This paper aims to define a conceptual hue for trancreation, based on theories of Haroldo de Campos, and apply it to an analysis of the translation of the poem “Blanco”, by Octavio Paz.

title: BIBLICAL TEXT AND “TRANSLATION”: THE “DIVINE VOICE” AT THE HUMAN LEVEL OF COENUNCIATION

description: Abstract Currently, biblical text has a multiplicity of versions spread out. These versions go from one pole of literality to the other of liberty in translation. In sight of these facts and of the specificities of biblical text, this paper focuses on the process of coenunciation in order to evaluate how textual-discursive organization is configured in these different versions, aiming at establishing a relation with the intended audience for each of these versions. The comparative analysis between representative versions of each of the poles, having more than one direction of investigation, shows that such relations go from creating effects of great distancing between producer and receptor (typical of literal versions, whose discourse is clothed in injunctive force that demands from the believers the fulfillment of all that is required), to creating effects of a highly marked approximation (typical of free versions, whose discourse seeks to establish a pact with the reader, in an evident relation of cooptation).

title: TRAINING OF AUDIO DESCRIPTORS: THE CINEMATOGRAPHIC AESTHETICS AS BASIS FOR THE LEARNING OF THE AUDIO DESCRIPTION AESTHETICS – MATERIALS, METHODS AND PRODUCTS

description: Abstract Audio description (AD), a resource used to make theater, cinema, TV, and visual works of art accessible to people with visual impairments, is slowly being implemented in Brazil and demanding qualified professionals. Based on this statement, this article reports the results of a research developed during post-doctoral studies. The study is dedicated to the confrontation of film aesthetics with audio description techniques to check how the knowledge of the former can contribute to audiodescritor training. Through action research, a short film adapted from a Mario de Andrade’s, a Brazilian writer, short story called O Peru de Natal (Christmas Turkey) was produced. The film as well as its audio description were carried out involving students and teachers from the discipline Intersemiotic Translation at the State University of Ceará. Thus, we intended to suggest pedagogical procedures generated by the students experiences by evaluating their choices and their implications.

title: REVISITING CORPUS CREATION AND ANALYSIS TOOLS FOR TRANSLATION TASKS

description: Abstract Many translation scholars have proposed the use of corpora to allow professional translators to produce high quality texts which read like originals. Yet, the diffusion of this methodology has been modest, one reason being the fact that software for corpora analyses have been developed with the linguist in mind, which means that they are generally complex and cumbersome, offering many advanced features, but lacking the level of usability and the specific features that meet translators’ needs. To overcome this shortcoming, we have developed TranslatorBank, a free corpus creation and analysis tool designed for translation tasks. TranslatorBank supports the creation of specialized monolingual corpora from the web; it includes a concordancer with a query system similar to a search engine; it uses basic statistical measures to indicate the reliability of results; it accesses the original documents directly for more contextual information; it includes a statistical and linguistic terminology extraction utility to extract the relevant terminology of the domain and the typical collocations of a given term. Designed to be easy and intuitive to use, the tool may help translation students as well as professionals to increase their translation quality by adhering to the specific linguistic variety of the target text corpus.
