Villiers de L´Isle-Adam: tradução e exorcismo ou a propósito das palavras pesadas em balanças de teias de aranha e do fantástico em Claire Lenoir
No full textTese (doutorado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Literatura, Florianópolis, 2011A presente tese é fundamentada na obra Tribulat Bonhomet, de Villiers de L'Isle-Adam (1838-1889). Obra composta de quatro contos e uma novela. Tanto a obra quanto o autor permitem muitas reflexões acerca da literatura, desde a literatura de humor até a de horror, mas sobretudo literatura fantástica. E é sobre esta que me detenho, especificamente na novela Claire Lenoir. Como Tribulat Bonhomet permanece inédito em português, apresento uma tradução e sobre essa tradução ? que se encontra ao fim, como anexo ? elaborei minha tese, sobre uma via dupla: tradução e teoria literária. Dedico o Capítulo 1 a essa duplicidade, separadamente, apresentando em 1.1 a literatura fantástica, fazendo o esboço de um tipo de literatura que provoca um exorcismo do real, um afastamento entre o leitor e a realidade. Na seqüência, em 1.2 abordo as perspectivas de tradução de um texto literário, a partir, principalmente, de Friedrich Schleiermacher (1768-1834) e Antoine Berman (1942-1991). Ambos os tópicos servirão de base para os dois capítulos subseqüentes. No Capítulo 2, dedico-me ao processo de tradução do romance, levando em conta as perspectivas abordadas no Capítulo 1.2, fazendo comentários acerca da tradução e comparando-a com outras traduções. Por último, no Capítulo 3, partindo da forma como Villiers de L'Isle-Adam mescla realidade e ficção ? e tomo aí como base o texto traduzido ? retomo os temas esboçados no Capítulo 1.1, da literatura fantástica, para especificar os elementos estranhos que geram o fantástico na obra e provocam um exorcismo do real. A conclusão, portanto, dá-se sobre uma duplicidade: há um exorcismo do real na literatura fantástica; e há um exorcismo do real em Villiers ? mediante a inserção de elementos fantásticos.Cette thèse est basée sur l'oeuvre Tribulat Bonhomet, de Villiers de L'Isle-Adam (1838-1889). Oeuvre composée de quatre récits et une nouvelle. L'oeuvre et l'auteur permettent de nombreuses réflexions sur la littérature, de la littérature d'humour jusqu´à l'horreur, mais surtout sur la littérature fantastique. Et c'est sur cette dernière que je me pencherai spécifiquement avec la nouvelle Claire Lenoir. Comme Tribulat Bonhomet reste inédite en portugais, je présente une traduction, et c´est sur cette traduction ? qui se trouve en fin de volume en pièce jointe ? que j´ai élaboré ma thèse selon une double voie: la traduction et la théorie littéraire. Je consacre le Chapitre 1 à cette duplicité, séparément, en présentant en 1.1 la littérature fantastique, faisant le croquis d'un type de littérature qui provoque un exorcisme du réel, une distanciation entre le lecteur et la réalité. Ensuite, en 1.2 je discute sur les perspectives de la traduction d'un texte littéraire, à partir, principalement, de Friedrich Schleiermacher (1768-1834) et d'Antoine Berman (1942-1991). Les deux thèmes formeront la base des deux chapitres suivants. Dans le Chapitre 2, je me consacre au processus de traduction de l'oeuvre, en tenant compte des perspectives discutées dans la partie 1.2, en faisant des commentaires concernant la traduction et en la comparant à d'autres traductions. Enfin, au Chapitre 3, à partir de la manière dont Villiers de L'Isle-Adam mélange fiction et réalité ? et je me base ici à partir du texte traduit ? je reprends les thèmes mentionnés dans le Chapitre 1.1, sur la littérature fantastique, en précisant que des éléments étranges génèrent le fantastique dans l'oeuvre et provoquent un exorcisme du réel. La conclusion, donc, se fonde sur une duplicité: il est un exorcisme du réel dans la littérature fantastique, et il est un exorcisme du réel chez Villiers ? par l'inclusion d'éléments fantastiques
ADAM SMITH'S VIEW OF HISTORY: CONSISTENT OR PARADOXICAL?
No full textThe conventional interpretation of Adam Smith is that he is a prophet of commercialism. The liberal capitalist reading of Smith is consistent with the view that history culminates in commercial society. The first part of the article develops this optimistic interpretation of Smith's view of history. Smith implies that commercial society is the end of history because 1) it supplies the ends of nature that he identifies; 2) it is inevitable; and 3) it is permanent. The second part of the article shows that Smith has some dark moments in his writings where he seems to reject completely such teleological notions. In this more civic humanist mood he confesses that commercial society does not supply the ends of nature, nor is it inevitable, nor is it permanent. Both views exist in Smith and the commentator is forced to choose between passages in Smith's work in order to support a particular interpretation of the former's view of history.Political Economy,

Prof. dr Adam Wawrzyniec Bochenek (1875-1913) — Eminent Polish Anatomist — 100th Anniversary o f His Death
No full textNazwisko Adama Bochenka znane jest wszystkim polskim lekarzom i studentom medycyny od ponad 100 lat. Dzieło, które stworzył, pomaga budować fundamenty wiedzy kolejnych pokoleń medyków aż do dnia dzisiejszego. Anatomia człowieka Bochenka jest książką niezwykłą. Liczne ilustracje oraz charakterystyczny dla autora lekki styl pisania sprawiają, że wiedza z pozoru tak nieprzystępna i rozległa staje się przejrzysta i łatwiejsza do zrozumienia. Pozycja ta jest przykładem klasycznego, obszernego podręcznika anatomii, na jakiego napisanie niewielu tylko autorów na świecie potrafiło się zdobyć. Przez ostatnie 100 lat publikacja ta wprowadzała kolejne pokolenia lekarzy nie tylko w tajniki anatomii, ale i całej medycyny. Mimo upływu czasu, dzieło Bochenka wciąż jest uważane za podręcznik wiodący na wszystkich uczelniach medycznych w Polsce, czego niezbitym dowodem są ukazujące się regularnie nowe jego wydania. Z okazji setnej rocznicy śmierci wybitnego polskiego anatoma pragniemy przypomnieć pokrótce jego życiorys, a także przybliżyć historię powstawania największego z jego dzieł.The name of Adam Bochenek have been familiar to every physican and medical student in Poland for a hundred years. For all those years, the book he have written, has been introducing new generations o f future doctors not only to anatomy but to the medicine in general. Bochenek’s The Human Anatomy is an extraordinary book. Typical for the author, descriptive way o f writing as well as numerous drawings make all this vast and inaccessible knowledge more clear, lucid and sometimes even addictive. It is an example o f a classical, extensive handbook o f anatomy. Despite the passage of time, The Human Anatomy is still the leading textbook for all medical universities in Poland, and its new editions coming out every few years are the best way to prove it.Andrzej Grzybowsk

Oltre il gusto barocco: note su un ipotetico intreccio romano tra Robert Adam e Giuseppe Venanzio Marvuglia (1755-1759)
No full textIl saggio approfondisce il tema delle relazioni professionali nel corso della formazione romana del principale architetto del neoclassicismo siciliano, Giuseppe Venanzio Marvuglia (1729-1814). L’occasione nasce dallo studio analitico di un disegno attribuito all’architetto palermitano a confronto con un progetto dello studio di Robert Adam (1728-1792) conservato presso la Soane’s Collection di Londra.
Il testo ripercorre le principali tappe della progettazione marvugliana nel passaggio dal tardo barocco al neoclassicismo, individuando tra le altre cose, per la prima volta, il modello di riferimento per villa Villarosa a Bagheria e portando all’attenzione quanto la rinomanza dell’architetto fosse dipesa dai suoi studi presso l’Accademia di San Luca, circoscritti tramite documenti d’archivio ad un preciso ambito temporale dall’autore del contributo (1755-1759).
Il riconoscimento del valore di Marvuglia, passando dalle recensioni di autorevoli personalità come Léon Dufourny o Jacques I. Hittorf, e la sua verosimile adesione alla Massoneria (addotta dalla lettura di una sua lettera a Dufourny presso la Biblioteca Comunale di Palermo), mostrano quanto egli fosse al centro di un sistema di relazioni europee ben al di sopra di quanto ritenuto finora, che trassero origine dai contatti stretti durante il soggiorno romano e si svilupparono successivamente.
La supposta contiguità con Robert Adam, presente a Roma nel medesimo periodo, viene ulteriormente sostanziata sulla base di nuovi elementi a supporto e consente anche di retrodatare l’elaborazione progettuale di Adam ai suoi anni romani.The essay explores the theme of professional relationships during the Roman training of the main architect of Sicilian neoclassicism, Giuseppe Venanzio Marvuglia (1729-1814). The opportunity arises from the analytical study of a drawing attributed to the Palermo architect in comparison with a project by Robert Adam's studio (1728-1792) kept at the Soane's Collection in London.
The text traces the main stages of Marvuglian design in the transition from late Baroque to neoclassicism, identifying, among other things, for the first time, the reference model for Villa Villarosa in Bagheria and bringing to attention how much the architect's fame had depended from his studies at the Accademia di San Luca, revealed by archival documents to a specific time frame by the author of the contribution (1755-1759).
The recognition of the value of Marvuglia, passing from the reviews of authoritative personalities such as Léon Dufourny or Jacques I. Hittorf, and his probable adhesion to Freemasonry (adduced by reading a letter to Dufourny at the Municipal Library of Palermo), show how much he was at the center of a system of European relations far beyond what has been previously thought, which originated from close contacts during the Roman stay and developed subsequently.
The supposed contiguity with Robert Adam, who was present in Rome in the same period, is further substantiated on the basis of new supporting elements and also allows us to backdate Adam's design development to his Roman years

Legal regulation of prices in Tanzania : an examination of the Regulation of Prices Act 1973 as a tool of social change and development
No full textDrawing mainly from the Tazanian experience this study
attempts to review the principal issues in the legal regulation of
prices, by identifying both the general and specific importance
of law in this respect. The position I shall present is that
legal control is both necessary and desirable for the welfare
and social development of the people. The key issue is whether
the market-place will perform its function satisfactory: Will
it produce socially desirable results? If it will not, why will
it not? And will legal regulation help to do the job a little
better?
In an attempt to answer some of these questions,
first of all, outline the basic issues raised by the study in
the first Chapter. Then I examine the general case for price
controls - the theory about the controls, the motives and reasons
for their imposition and the manner in which they are effected
in different economic systems. This is done in Chapter Two. Relying
most on the available literature on the regulatory process, this
Chapter also looks at the relationship between law and economic
regulation and concludes that the effectiveness of law depends
on the existence of a conducive socio-economic environment. In
Chapter Three I describe the past record of price control laws
in Tanzania. I conclude that despite the failure in the past,
the controls still constitute an important policy instrument
in the transition to socialism. In Chapters Four and Five I describe
the manner in which the current regulations are implemented and
the problems encountered. I conclude that the operational performance
of the controls is constrained by internal and external influences on the economic and political life of the country. In the concluding
Chapter I assess the impact of the controls: Do the controls
work? Do people buy goods at the controlled prices? Why today
the controls are almost popularly accepted as worthwhile? I conclude
that while there may be no measurable economic gains derived
by consumers, the controls have a stabilising effect on the social
and political front. In the final section I argue that the
future success of the legislation depends on creating a correspondence
between the economic structures and the control system. What
makes the controls ineffective is not so much defects in the
law but the contradictions between the orientation of and functioning
of the economic system and the ideological commitment
