From Albania to Brazil: Ismail Kadaré's Broken april and its filmic adaptation, Walter Salles' Abril despedaçado
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Letras/Inglês e Literatura Correspondente, Florianópolis, 2007The aim of the present study is to analyse how issues of Albanian national identity are portrayed in Ismail Kadaré's novel Broken April (Prilli i Thyer), and how such features have been appropriated and translated onto the screen into a Northeastern Brazilian context. I depart from the premise that, even though Brazilian elements are indeed shown in the film, the non existence of the Kanun in Brazil, and the use of narrative techniques different from the ones employed in the novel render the story of the blood feuds in the film more universal than the genuinely Albanian reality depicted in the novel. In sum, the appropriation transcends the Albanian reality into a universal context, showing, at the same time, elements which are typical of the Brazilian culture.O objetivo do presente estudo é analisar como questões sobre a identidade nacional Albanesa são retratadas no romance Abril Despedaçado (Prilli i Thyer), de Ismail Kadaré, e como tais questões foram apropriadas e traduzidas para a tela num contexto Nordestino-Brasileiro. O estudo parte do princípio que, embora elementos tipicamente Brasileiros sejam mostrados no filme, a não existência do Kanun no Brasil, e o uso de técnicas narrativas diferentes das empregadas no romance ajudam a deixar a história das brigas de família no filme com um aspecto mais universal do que a realidade genuinamente Albanesa representada na romance. Em suma, a apropriação transcende a realidade Albanesa para um contexto mais universal, sem deixar de mostrar também elementos típicos da cultura Brasileira
Variations on the Author
No full text“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Azithromycin as potent inhibitor of cell migration in tumor cell line
No full textContinuous obstacles behind the discovery of novel drugs for cancer therapy have necessitated
the development of alternative strategy of drug repurposing—the development of old drugs for new therapeutic
purposes. With an improved understanding of the hallmarks of cancer, this strategy offers a cost-effective process
for the treatment of human neoplastic disease, thereby facilitating rapid clinical translation. In this regard, macrolide
antibiotics (MAs), which include a wide spectrum of activities against Gram-positive bacteria, have also been
proposed as anticancer drugs for multiple tumor types. Over the past few years, significant progress has been
achieved in anticancer therapy, but development of resistance and unavoidable side effects have weakened these
attainments. Considering this severe condition, a number of drugs with novel antitumor mechanisms are under
investigations including antimicrobials that have been shown to possess anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory,
and cytotoxic effects. In this regard, both conventional and novel antimicrobials are being studied to explore their
anticancer potential along with underlying mechanisms that may render them as effective anticancer drugs in the
future. Hence, in the latest study, we tested the role of a macrolide antibiotic drug, Azithromycin (AZM) alone, in
combination with standard chemotherapeutic agent Sorafenib (Sorafenib/AZM) and its gold conjugated
nanoparticles (AuAZM) as an anti angiogenic agent in hepatoma cell line hepG2 through wound healing assay. The
migratory potential of HepG2 cells after being exposed to different treatments (AZM, Sorafenib, Sorafenib/AZM,
and Au-AZM at IC50 concentrations) was observed at 0, 6, 24, 48, and 72 hours. The results of our study showed
that AZM exhibited highly significant reduction in wound healing with p-value (< 0.001) up till 72 hours, while
Sorafenib, Sorafenib/AZM, and Au-AZM inhibited wound healing up to 48 hours (p-value < 0.001). The current
study revealed a comparatively higher antiangiogenic potential of AZM in cancer cells, thereby suggesting its
clinical application for cancer treatment
Inhibitory potential of combination of macrolide antibiotic with conventional chemotherapeutic agent sorafenib on growth rate of cancer cell population
No full textOver the past few years great progress has been achieved in anticancer therapy, but development
of resistance and unavoidable side effects have incapacitated these fulfilments. Keeping in view
this demanding condition, numerous drugs with unique antitumor mechanisms are under
investigations including antimicrobials which have been shown to possess anti-inflammatory,
immunomodulatory and cytotoxic effects. In this regard, both conventional and novel antimicrobials
are being studied to explore their anticancer potential along with underlying mechanisms which
may render them as effective anticancer drugs in near future. Moreover, the new approach of drug
repurposing is also being encouraged especially in cancers in order to reduce cost and limit adverse effects. In recent times a cumulative number of studies have laid stress upon the antitumor
properties of antimicrobials. Consequently, this study has been conducted to see comparative
inhibitory effect of Sorafenib and its combination with a macrolide antibiotic Azithromycin on growth
rate HepG2 cell line

Ismail Fethi\'s Views on Spirit and Morality
No full textIsmail Fethi'nin Ruh ve Ahlâk'la ilgili Görüsleri isimli bu çalısmada, daha
önce hakkında herhangi bir çalısmanın yapılmadıgını tespit ettigimiz Ismail Fethi'nin
ruh ve ahlâkla ilgili görüsleri ele alınarak, müellifin bu görüsleri felsefe açısından
degerlendirilmeye çalısılmıstır.
Müellifin ruh görüsü zihin felsefesi, ahlâk görüsü ise ahlâk felsefesi
çerçevesinde ele alınmıstır. Ruh ile ilgili görüslerinde Ismail Fethi, dualist bakıs
açısına sahip oldugundan, onun bu noktadaki görüsleri önde gelen dualist filozoflarla
karsılastırmalı olarak ele alınmıstır. Dualistik ruh anlayısının problemlerine
deginilerek Ismail Fethi'nin ruh görüsünün problemleri belirlenmistir. Ayrıca ahlâk
görüsünde tasavvufî bakıs açısına sahip oldugunu tespit ettigimiz müellifin ahlâk
görüsü önce Osmanlı ahlâk düsüncesi içinde sonra da tasavvufî ahlâk içindeki yeri
tespit edilmeye çalısılmıstır.
Bu yöntemle ele aldıgımız görüslerinde müellifin bilhassa ruh konusunda
kendinden önceki düsünürlerden etkilenmis oldugunu, günümüzdeki bilimsel ve
felsefî verilerle yer yer ters düstügünü söyleyebiliriz. Ahlâk görüsünde ise belirli bir
sistem ortaya koymaktan ziyade bireysel ahlâk konularına deginerek ruh- beden
ayrımını öngören ruh görüsüne paralel, ruhun tezkiyesi konusu dısına pek
çıkmamıstır. Bu itibarla çalısmamızın niteligi Ismail Fethi nezdinde yeni ve orjinal
fikirler ortaya çıkarmaktan çok, bilinmeyen bir düsünürün fikirlerinin degerlendirilmesi
ve düsünce dünyamıza kazandırılması olarak özetlenebilir.In this study, namely \"Ismail Fethi\'s Views on Spirit and Morality\", Ismail Fethi\'s
views regarding spirit and morality, which we determined that have not been studied
before, are discussed and those views of the author are attempted to be evaluated
from the point of philosophy.
The authors\' view of spirit is examined in the frame of mind philosophy, while his
view of morality is examined in the frame of moral philosophy. Since, in his views
about spirit Ismail Fethi adopts dualistic approach, his views on that subject are
compared with the primary dualistic philosophers\'. The problems of dualistic spirit
concept are mentioned and the problems of Ismail Fethi\'s view of spirit are pointed
out. Moreover, as we identified that regarding his view of morality the author adopts
sufi perspective, the position of his moral view in the Ottoman moral thought and in
the sufi morality is tried to be determined.
We can say that in his views, which we examined with the method depicted
above, regarding his view of spirit, in particular, the author is affected from the
scholars before him. We can also say that in some aspects these views contradict
with the contemporary scientific and philosophic findings. About his view of morality,
it can be said that rather than composing a certain system, he mentioned more on
the individual morality matters. In parallel with the view of spirit which presumes spritbody
distinction, he barely went beyond the matter of purification of the soul. Thus,
rather than revealing Ismail Fethi\'s new and original thoughts, the character of our
study can be summarized as an evaluation of the thoughts of an unknown scholar
and bringing his contribution in our contemporary thought
