    Introducción: El electropulido es un proceso de disolución anódica que se utiliza actualmente para obtener una superficie brillante y suave en varios instrumentos metálicos para mejorar sus propiedades de trabajo, así como aplicaciones biomédicas. Objetivo:El propósito de este estudio fue investigar el efecto del electropulido de los brackets metálicos en el deslizamiento. Hipótesis:Los brackets que son sometidos al proceso de electropulido presentaran mayor deslizamiento. Método: Catorce brackets metálicos de siete marcas diferentes se dividieron en un grupo experimental y un grupo de control, que se probaron con el uso de 14 arcos de alambre de 0.019 x 0.025 pulgadas. ANOVA de una vía y la prueba post hoc de Tukey se aplicaron para las comparaciones entre el grupo experimental y el grupo de control; La significación estadística se estableció en p ≤ 0.05.Resultados: la mayor cantidad de deslizamiento (97780 mm) se encontró en el grupo experimental después de la aplicación del método de electropulido (p ≤ 0.05).

    Mystère et magistère. Victor Hugo académicien

    No full text
    The election of Victor Hugo at the Académie française was the result of a prolonged campaign that exposed the poet to several. His perseverance is a sign of the importance that the author of the Preface to Cromwell attached to academic consecration. The way Hugo reports himself to the Académie helps to understand the relationship of poetry and power in the poet's work. There is a link between the increase of the poet’s academic ambitions and the rise of the theme of a classical past, modeled on classical antiquity and on the French seventeenth century

    O objetivo é seguir a evolução do próprio pensamento de Victor Hugo sobre a conceção da tradução e do tradutor. De facto, em 1819, Victor Hugo ficou indignado com uma tradução de Homero em verso em língua francesa: “É monstruoso e insustentável”, declarando que “uma tradução em verso de qualquer pessoa, por qualquer pessoa parece-[lhe] absurda, impossível e quimérica”, sugerindo a priori que Victor Hugo é um defensor da intraduzibilidade. Na sua juventude, Victor Hugo entendia que qualquer tradução era proibida, um tabu, dando toda a importância ao próprio autor. Mas o seu ponto de vista irá evoluir com o tempo. O trabalho desenvolvido pelo seu filho François-Victor Hugo, de 1858 a 1866, trar-lhe-á um novo horizonte no campo da tradução. Labor severo, revalorizando assim a tarefa do tradutor, percorrendo um caminho árduo, mas estimulante. Tributário da sua época, com Victor Hugo, é todo um processo de renovação de ideias do discurso francês sobre a tradução que nos é entregue. O objetivo deste artigo é mergulhar no universo de Victor Hugo a fim de clarificar esta sua perspetiva evolutiva ao longo do século XIX. Fá-lo-emos analisando os seus escritos cronologicamente, desde as obras da primeira juventude, até às obras do seu exílio.The aim of this paper is to follow the evolution of Victor Hugo’s own thinking on the idea of translation and the translator. In fact, in 1819, Victor Hugo felt outraged by a translation in verse of Homer into French: “It is monstrous and untenable”, stating that “a translation in verse of anyone, made by anyone, seems [to him] absurd, impossible and chimerical”, thus a priori suggesting that Victor Hugo is an advocate of untranslatability. In his youth, Victor Hugo understood any translation to be forbidden, a taboo, assigning the utmost importance to the author himself. But his point of view will evolve with time. The work done by his son, François-Victor Hugo, from 1858 to 1866, would bring him a new horizon in the field of translation. Hard work, thus leading to a revaluation of the task of the translator, by treading a laborious, yet stimulating path. Tributary of his time, Victor Hugo gives us a whole new process of renewal of ideas around French discourse on translation. This article aims to delve into the universe of Victor Hugo in order to clarify such an individual evolutionary perspective throughout the nineteenth century. We will do so by analysing his writings on a chronological basis, starting from the works written in his early youth to those published during exile.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

    Victor Hugo

    Victor Hugo (1802-85) is an icon of French culture. He achieved immense success as a poet, dramatist and novelist, and he was also elected to both Houses of the French Parliament. Leading the Romantic campaign against artistic tradition and defying the Second Empire in exile, he became synonymous with the progressive ideals of the French Revolution. His State funeral in Paris made headlines across the world and his breadth of appeal remains evident today, not least thanks to the popularity of his bestseller, Les Misérables.This biography, the first in English for over twenty years, provides a concise but comprehensive study of Hugo’s monumental body of work within the context of his dramatic life. Hugo wrestled with family tragedy and personal misgivings while being pulled into the turmoil of the nineteenth century, from the fall of Napoleon’s Empire to the rise of France’s Third Republic. Throughout these twists of fate, he sensed a natural order of collapse and renewal. This unending cycle of creation shaped his ideas about freedom and roused his imagination, which he channelled into his prolific writing and other outlets like drawing. Such vigour also suggests, as Bradley Stephens argues, that Hugo was too restless to sit comfortably on the pedestal of literary greatness. Reviewed as follows: 'This “Hugo” will surely inspire readers to delve into the wonders of the poetry, drama and fiction created by the pre-eminent public figure of nineteenth-century France' (David Bellos, Professor of Comparative Literature and Author of 'The Novel of the Century: The Extraordinary Adventure of Les Misérables') 'In these troubled times of ours, this book is the antidote we never knew we craved. Comprehensive, refreshingly accessible -- and concise! -- Stephens draws a fascinating portrait. [...] Essential reading in a post-truth era!' ('France Today', April / May 2019, p. 95)'In deftly detailing Hugo’s busy life, Stephens fills a gaping hole in Hugo studies, giving us an up-to-date, accessible, concise English-language biography of the author who dominated nineteenth-century France—and whose ideas continue to move throughout the world.'

    Doce leite romântico: a presença de Victor Hugo nas crônicas de Machado de Assis

    Get PDF
    Victor Hugo was the author most cited by Machado de Assis in his chronicles and was of great importance in the construction of his cultural heritage, leaving deep marks in his work. The author of Dom Casmurro read the work of Victor Hugo, admired it, memorized it, and, as a young man, tried to follow the ideals of the French poet. This admiration, however, was never blind, as he condemned the excesses of the Hugoist school led by Sílvio Romero, as well as some texts in bad taste published by the creator of Quasimodo. Likewise, he knew how to look at Victor Hugo with a critical eye, removing from his work only those aspects that could benefit his maturity as a writer. In the case of Machado de Assis, the vision of the Other was always permeated with a critical eye; the foreign presence started to be used for the benefit of its own text, thanks to the establishment of a renewing intertextual practice. It is curious to observe that the massive presence of Victor Hugo in Machado’s chronicles contrasts with a shy or almost non-existent presence in his short stories, poems, plays, and novels. This article intends to establish a hypothesis for such a contrast through the analysis of journalistic texts published by Machado de Assis.Victor Hugo foi o autor mais citado por Machado de Assis em suas crônicas e teve grande importância na construção de seu patrimônio cultural, deixando em sua obra marcas profundas. O autor de Dom Casmurro leu a obra de Victor Hugo, admirou-a, memorizou-a e, quando jovem, tentou seguir os ideais do poeta francês acerca da função da poesia e do teatro. Essa admiração, entretanto, nunca foi cega, pois ele condenou os excessos da escola hugoísta liderada por Sílvio Romero, bem como alguns textos de péssimo gosto publicados pelo criador de Quasímodo. Igualmente, soube olhar para Victor Hugo com olhos críticos, retirando de sua obra somente os aspectos que poderiam beneficiar o seu amadurecimento como escritor. No caso de Machado de Assis, a presença estrangeira era utilizada em benefício de seu próprio texto, graças ao estabelecimento de uma prática intertextual renovadora. É forçoso observar que a maciça presença de Victor Hugo nas crônicas machadianas contrasta com uma presença tímida ou quase inexistente em seus contos, poemas, peças e romances. Este artigo pretende estabelecer uma hipótese para tal contraste, por meio da análise dos textos jornalísticos publicados por Machado de Assis
