Verb inflection in Ancient Greek and Sanskrit and auxiliation patterns in French and Italian. Forms, functions, system
2009
This paper deals with the complex interaction between form and function in the verb morphosyntax of four Indo-European languages (French, Italian, Ancient Greek and Sanskrit). Beyond the difference in form, auxiliation patterns in French and Italian, and verb inflections in Ancient Greek and Sanskrit correlate, thanks to the agreement for number and person, to the expression of the relationship with the Subject. The different auxiliation patterns (sum and habeo) and the different inflections (middle and active) correlate to different properties of the Subject. In particular, these forms depend on the syntactic opposition between middle and non-middle. The ways of this dependency are regulat…
Lena Constante. Experiencia carcelaria y búsqueda de la palabra liberadora en lengua francesa
2016
Lena Constante (1909-2005), escritora de origen rumano, elige la lengua francesa para escribir su testimonio en las cárceles rumanas entre 1950 y 1957. Su vivencia, en un contexto de opresión totalitaria y de injusta acusación, expresa de modo somero las condiciones políticas en las que se produjeron los acontecimientos. Ahora bien, la autora desarrolla todo un conjunto de estrategias transgresoras, ligadas a la composición verbal que plasma en su obra autobiográfica L’évasion silencieuse. Trois mille jours seule dans les prisons roumaines (1990). Lejos de alcanzar la felicidad, realiza su propio camino de liberación interior frente al silencio, el aislamiento y las torturas impuestas
Expresivitatea limbajului popular în romanul haiducesc „Iancu Jianu, zapciu de plasă” și „Iancu Jianu, căpitan de haiduci” de Nicolae D. Popescu
2021
This paper analyzes the expressivity of popular language from the novels ”Iancu Jianu, Head of Administration” and ”Iancu Jianu, Captain of the Hajduks” by N.D. Popescu. The popular language is a language specific aspect, a language version and a main component of the oral version of the national language. In literary works, the popular language has a stylistic purpose. The aesthetic value of the text is the result of the process by which the expressiveness of the writer`s language is converted into an individual literary rule. The stylistic processes and brands encountered in popular language are national specific and they reflect the history, the way of thinking and the feelings of Romani…
Historical aspects of the translations and translators of Don Quixote in Germany in the 20th century
2013
Afirmar que toda Alemania conoce el Quijote, que por todas partes circulan traducciones de la obra, no es nada nuevo. Que el lector medio sepa cuántas traducciones existen o cuándo se llevó a cabo la versión que está leyendo, es algo extraño. Y más extraño todavía es que el lector sepa quién ha sido el traductor, a no ser que se trate de los “traductores estrella” de la literatura alemana, en el caso del Quijote, Ludwig Tieck, en otros casos, por ejemplo, August Wilhelm Schlegel, Arthur Schopenauer, Walter Benjamin o Stefan Zweig. Pero junto a estas “estrellas” ha habido un sinnúmero de buenos traductores a los que no se ha prestado la atención que quizá merecen. Nuestro trabajo pretende re…
Facebookland: o mundo bizarro-linguístico
2019
Abstract This article investigates the dynamics of contemporary Romanian, focusing on various linguistic structures typically used on social network sites, through which the specific content and interaction strategies are being deployed in virtual communities. The article is part of a larger project devoted to the study of linguistic impoverishment (affecting both the vocabulary and the grammatical structure of the language), social networks being only one of the areas where these “uglified” linguistic structures come from: the mass-media (both print and broadcast), advertising (outdoor, indoor, television commercials), Internet forums, corporate jargon, etc. The structures under scrutiny a…
O galego-português, matriz do mundo lingüístico luso-brasileiro
2021
O período inicial desta breve história da língua galega e o reintegracionismo lingüístico começa com umhas observaçons de umha «Carta» de Martim Sarmiento (1695-1771), precursor da filologia galega, e finaliza em 2019, ano em que a Real Academia Galega (RAG), toma o acordo de dedicar-lhe o «Dia das Letras Galegas» ao polígrafo ferrolano Ricardo Carvalho Calero (Ferrol 1910 - Santiago de Compostela 1990). Elaboram-se apenas umhas ideias sobre o século XIX e primeira metade do XX; mais informaçom aparece sobre a segunda metade do século passado e primeiras décadas do XXI.
“El arte de la traducción”, by Alejandro Cioranescu
2013
Alejandro Cioranescu's work (1911-1999) as a researcher in Comparative Literature was developed in Spain since the fifties. Cioranescu is not only author of the first modern manual of Comparative Literature written in Spanish but his interest in this discipline issues (exchanges, contacts, translation) remained present over more than four decades in his Spanish bibliography. This work recovers one of the Romanian philologist article that may well be seen as his ideal for literary translation.
The changing schoolscape in a Szekler village in Romania: signs of diversity in rehungarization
2015
In this paper, we explore the connections between a linguistic landscape and language ideologies in an elementary school in a village within the Hungarian region of Szeklerland in Romania. This ‘schoolscape’ is analysed as a display or materialization of the ‘hidden curriculum’ regarding the construction of linguistic and cultural identities. We draw on fieldwork carried out in 2012 and 2013 and examine two dimensions of change in progress: (1) changes in the use of Hungarian and Romanian as languages of teaching and learning and as languages of written administration; and (2) changes in the display of these languages in the schoolscape. Since 1990, there has been a tendency towards rehunga…
The macrophage-activating tetrapeptide tuftsin induces nitric oxide synthesis and stimulates murine macrophages to kill Leishmania parasites in vitro.
1994
The macrophage-activating tetrapeptide tuftsin was able to activate, in a dose-dependent manner, murine macrophages to express nitric oxide (NO) synthase and to produce NO. Tuftsin required lipopolysaccharides for the optimal induction of NO production and synergized with gamma interferon in the induction of NO synthesis. Tuftsin-dependent NO production was sensitive to inhibition by dexamethasone and the NO synthase specific inhibitor LGN-monomethylarginine (L-NMMA). Murine peritoneal macrophages activated by tuftsin were able to kill the amastigotes of the intracellular protozoan parasite Leishmania major in vitro.
Skin-derived macrophages from Leishmania major-susceptible mice exhibit interleukin-12- and interferon-gamma-independent nitric oxide production and …
2002
Co-administration of CpG-containing immunostimulatory oligodeoxynucleotides and parasite antigen protects susceptible BALB/c mice from otherwise progressive infection with Leishmania major. Although the protective effect of CpG-containing immunostimulatory oligodeoxynucleotides is clearly dependent on endogenous interleukin-12 and interferon-gamma production, the source of these Th1-promoting cytokines in infected mice is unknown. In contrast to macrophages from Leishmania-resistant C57BL/6 mice, macrophages from susceptible BALB/c mice are hyporesponsive to stimulation with lipopolysaccharide and interferon-gamma. While studying interactions of various antigen-presenting cells with Leishma…
