Come tradurre Milo De Angelis
No full textThe section presents the Chinese translation of four poems by Milo De Angelis, who is
among the best Italian contemporary poets. The poems are taken from the collection "Incontri e agguati" (Mondadori, 201 5). The texts are both in Italian and Chinese in parallel
text. Yang Lin, with the help of Geng Jiang (Chinese musician and poet), took care of the
translation.
The section opens with a note made by the translation group that analyses the processes
of the transposition of the dense poetic language of De Angelis into the Chinese language.
There follows an enlightening letter from Milo De Angelis to the translation group. The four
poems in Chinese and Italian complete the section
Lowest electronic states of neutral and ionic LiN
No full textWe have investigated the potential energy curves (PECs) of the LiN heteronuclear diatomic molecule, including its ionic species LiN+ and LiN−, using explicitly correlated multi-reference configuration interaction (MRCI-F12) calculations in conjunction with the correlation consistent quintuple- basis set. The effect of core–valence correlation, scalar relativistic effects, and the size of the basis sets has been investigated. A comprehensive set of spectroscopic constants determined based on the above-mentioned calculations are also reported for the lowest electronic states and all systems, including dissociation energies, harmonic and anharmonic vibrational frequencies, and rotational constants. Additional parameters, such as the dipole moments, equilibrium spin-orbit constants, excitation energies, and rovibrational energy levels, are also documented. We found that the three triplet states of LiN, namely, X 3∑−, A 3Π, and 2 3∑−, exhibit substantial potential wells in the PEC diagrams, while the quintet states are repulsive in nature. The ground state of the anion also shows a deep potential well in the vicinity of its equilibrium geometry. In contrast, the ground and excited states of the cation are very loosely bound. Charge transfer properties of each of these states are also analyzed to obtain an in-depth understanding of the interatomic interactions. We found that the core–valence correlation has a substantial effect on the calculated spectroscopic constants.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Atmospheric Remote Sensin

Diagnosis. Male of S. wulongensis differs from males of all other congeners with the exception of S. bifurcata by the furcate embolus (Fig. 6E–e vs. Fig. 6A–D, 6a–d, 6G–H, 6g –h); it differs from male of S. bifurcata by the narrower, longer oval bulb, the embolus with two equilong tip branches, and the embolus starts from the submesialback surface of bulb, but the embolus of S. bifurcata with asymmetric branches that origins from prolateral surface of bulb (Fig. 6E–e vs. Fig. 6F–f). Female of S. wulongensis seems also close to S. bifurcata having a similar vulval structure, but it can be distinguished by the lager “ω”-shaped inner vulval plate, and the longer, weakly sclerotized central process (Fig. 7F vs. Fig. 7D).

Vascular endothelial growth factor restores delayed tumor progression in tumors depleted of macrophages
Full text linkGenetic depletion of macrophages in Polyoma Middle T oncoprotein (PyMT)-induced mammary tumors in mice delayed the angiogenic switch and the progression to malignancy. To determine whether vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) produced by tumor-associated macrophages regulated the onset of the angiogenic switch, a genetic approach was used to restore expression of VEGF-A into tumors at the benign stages. This stimulated formation of a high-density vessel network and in macrophage-depleted mice, was followed by accelerated tumor progression. The expression of VEGF-A led to a massive infiltration into the tumor of leukocytes that were mostly macrophages. This study suggests that macrophage-produced VEGF regulates malignant progression through stimulating tumor angiogenesis, leukocytic infiltration and tumor cell invasion

With the exception of S. wulongensis, male of S. bifurcata can be distinguished from all other congeners by the embolus with an asymmetrically furcate end (Fig. 6f vs. Fig. 6a–d, 6g –h), and female of S. bifurcata differs by the stubby, sclerotized central process (Fig. 8A vs. Figs. 5C–D, 7A–C, 9A–B). S. bifurcata similar to S. wulongensis in the shape of palpal bulb and the configuration of vulva, but male of S. bifurcata can be distinguished from that of S. wulongensis by the starting position of embolus (Fig. 6F vs. Fig. 6E, the position indicated by the blue arrow) and the unequal length of branches of embolic tip (Fig. 6f vs. Fig. 6e); female of S. bifurcata separated by the smaller, “Ω”-shaped inner vulval plate, and the shorter central process (Fig. 8A vs. Fig. 8B).

Correspondencia entre Lin Shu y Cai Yuanpei relativa al movimiento de la nueva cultura (marzo-abril, 1919)
No full textLin Shu 林紓 (8 de noviembre de 1852-9 de octubre de 1924),² nombre de cortesía Qinnan 琴南, literato y traductor nacido en Nantai 南台, en la antigua prefectura Min 閩 (actual Fuzhou 福州, Fujian), en el seno de una familia de comerciantes con escasos recursos económicos. Ya desde los cuatro años comenzó su formación en los clásicos confucianos, que fue fundamentalmente autodidacta y dependió en gran medida de los pocos textos que conservaba su tío, así como de libros usados que el joven Lin Shu compraba con el dinero que su madre le daba para comer. Comenzó con veinte años su carrera docente en una escuela local, preparándose mientras tanto para los exámenes imperiales. No fue sino hasta los 40 años de edad que Lin Shu entró en contacto con la literatura de las dinastías Tang y Song, influencia decisiva en su posterior tarea de traductor. Con el fallecimiento de su primera esposa, en 1897, Lin Shu, aconsejado por varios amigos, inició la traducción de La Dama de las Camelias de Alejandro Dumas. La novela apareció publicada en la primavera de 1899 y constituyó una revolución literaria en todo el país. A partir de entonces, Lin Shu se convirtió en el traductor por excelencia, y llegó a publicar, se estima, 213 traducciones de obras occidentales.³ Esta cuantiosa producción literaria era fruto del esfuerzo mutuo de un grupo de amigos versados en lenguas extranjeras que traducían oralmente a la lengua vernácula o baihua 白話 estas novelas, para ser inmediatamente reescritas en lengua culta o wenyan 文言 por Lin Shu
Candice Lin: paisaje, territorio y fronteras
No full textSe analizan los contenidos ideológicos de la acuarela «Nacimiento de una nación» (2008), de Candice Lin. A partir de nociones como territorio, tropo caníbal, tipo botánico tropical y pensamiento fronterizo, se plantea una interpretación de esa paisajística pictórica, en que la artista-activista reflexiona sobre el régimen de representación visual. Mediante diversos procedimientos formales, Lin pone en entredicho preceptos centrales de la mentalidad colonialista, que contrapone a las concepciones indigenistas.An analysis is provided of the ideological contents of the watercolor “Birth of a Nation” (2008), by Candice Lin.
