Resumo No presente artigo, pretendo investigar se e em que medida os elementos estruturais do poema “Der Panther” (“A pantera”) de Rainer Maria Rilke foram recriados por três de seus mais reconhecidos tradutores brasileiros, a saber: por Geir Campos (1924-1999) em 1953, por José Paulo Paes (1926-1998) em 1993 e por Augusto de Campos (1931- ) em 1994. Partindo do pressuposto apresentado por Haroldo de Campos no ensaio “Da tradução como criação e como crítica” (1963), segundo o qual a tradução de poesia seria um trabalho com o “próprio signo, ou seja, sua fisicalidade, sua materialidade mesma” (Campos (b) 34), pretendo apontar primeiramente a importância ainda maior de tais elementos naqueles poemas rilkeanos que, como “Der Panther”, vêm sendo há quase 100 anos descritos pela crítica (Müller 298) como “Dinggedicht” (ou “poema-coisa”); realizando, em seguida, uma breve análise dos elementos estruturais do poema original (aqui entendidos como metro, aliterações, assonâncias, movimento frasal e outros aspectos da materialidade do signo linguístico); para chegar, finalmente, a uma breve leitura comparada das maneiras como os três tradutores lidaram com esses elementos estruturais em suas respectivas traduções para o português.

Abstract In this paper, I intend to investigate if and how the structural elements of Rainer Maria Rilke’s poem “Der Panther” (“The panther”) were recreated by three of his most influential translators in Brazil, namely by Geir Campos (1924-1999) in 1953, by José Paulo Paes (1926-1998) in 1993 and by Augusto de Campos (1931- ) in 1994. Based on the assumptions presented by Haroldo de Campos in the essay “Of translations as creation and criticism” (1963), according to which the translation of poetry is a work with “the sign itself […], that is, the sign’s tangible self, its very materiality” (Campos (a) 315, translated by Diana Gibson and Haroldo de Campos), I intend to firstly point out the even greater importance of these elements in those poems by Rilke (among them “Der Panther”) which have been described by critics (Müller 298) as “Dinggedicht” (or “thing-poem”) for the last hundred years. Secondly, I will briefly analyse the original poem’s structural elements (meaning here meter, alliterations, assonances, phrasal movement and other aspects of the materiality of the linguistic sign). Finally, I intend to briefly compare the ways by which the three translators dealt with these structural elements in their respective translations to the Portuguese.

Resumo Neste artigo apresento e contrasto brevemente as noções quase opostas do termo “ritmo” nas obras dos teóricos Massaud Moisés e Henri Meschonnic. Meschonnic propõe uma compreensão bastante aberta do termo, que recupera noções da ética, da política, da linguística e de diversas outras áreas do conhecimento para o entendimento do mesmo; e intenta mesmo transformar toda a teoria da linguagem para tal. Moisés, por outro lado, trabalha com uma noção muito mais delineável e precisa do termo, que remete a características sonoras específicas da palavra, sem, no entanto, cair em simplificações. Ao apresentar e contrastar os dois entendimentos, pretendo explorar o que se depreende de produtivo desse encontro, principalmente no que diz respeito ao campo da tradução de poesia. Para isso - e de modo a verificar como tanto as noções dos dois teóricos quanto meus apontamentos se materializam na prática tradutória - retomarei mais adiante no texto duas traduções minhas dos autores de língua alemã, Ingeborg Bachmann e Peter Waterhouse.

Abstract In this paper, I present and then contrast briefly the understandings of ‘rhythm’ in the works of both Massaud Moisés and Henri Meschonnic. Meschonnic proposes a quite open understanding of the term, which brings up notions of ethics, politics, linguistics and several other branches of knowledge to the understanding of rhythm; and really intends to revolutionize all of the theory of language in order to do so. Moisés, on the other hand, works with a much more discernible and precise term, which refers to very specific sound-related characteristics of a word, without, however, oversimplificating it. By presenting and contrasting both understandings I intend to bring out how fruitful a debate one can achieve from oposing them. Further in this paper - and in order to ascertain how the understandings of the two, as well as my remarks, are put into translation practice - I will bring along two translations I made of german-language poets Ingeborg Bachmann and Peter Waterhouse.

ABSTRACT: There are several globally accepted methods to chemically characterize P-fertilizers, but not all are suitable to predict the agronomic efficiency of the P sources in terms of plant nutrition. Our aim was to investigate the performance of P extractors for fertilizers, investigating the consistency of different methods for P sources of varying properties and the related plant responses. The experiment was carried out in a greenhouse, using corn as a model plant. Phosphorus values extractable in water, 2 % citric acid, 2 % formic acid, ammonium neutral citrate + water, and acid ammonium citrate were evaluated for eight P fertilizers of varied solubility and correlated with P uptake by corn. The extractors citric acid and formic acid recovered no predictive amounts of P from crystalline apatite sources (Araxá and Patos phosphate rocks, PRs). However, they showed a satisfactory performance for Bayóvar PR and partially acidulated PRs but extracted low amounts of P from soluble P sources such as superphosphates. Neutral ammonium citrate + water extractors could accurately predict the efficiency of soluble P sources but underestimated the performance of Bayóvar (a reactive PR). In contrast, the extractor acid ammonium citrate, AAC, (pH 3) accurately predicted the agronomic efficiency of all P fertilizers. We therefore suggest AAC as an effective predictor of the agronomic effectiveness of any inorganic phosphorus sources.

Abstract AIMS To verify the incidence of injuries in professional soccer athletes in Aracaju-SE and to identify associated factors. METHODS This was an observational, prospective cohort study involving 39 healthy athletes, followed for seven months and evaluated on four occasions (start on preseason and two evaluations with three months of interval between each) through data collection sheet and orthopedic physical examination. RESULTS Participants were 20 athletes from Club Sportivo Sergipe and 19 from Associação Desportiva Confiança, with mean age of 26 years (CI 95%: 25.2-28 years), and mean career time of 9.6 years (CI 95%: 7.9-11.3 years). The 13 (2.4 / 1000 hours) diagnosed injuries occurred almost exclusively in the lower limbs and thigh muscle stretch was the most common injury. Injuries were mostly mild to moderate (69%). There was no significant association with any of the variables analyzed. CONCLUSION Low incidence of injuries was observed in this study. Predominantly, lesions occurred on non-rainy days and were due to trauma. Lower limbs were the most affected location and thigh stretch was the most common injury.

OBJETIVO: Determinar a idade pulmonar de pacientes com obesidade mórbida e compará-la com a idade cronológica desses pacientes, ressaltando o dano precoce da obesidade mórbida sobre os pulmões. MÉTODOS: Estudo transversal, prospectivo e aberto que envolveu 112 indivíduos: 78 pacientes com obesidade mórbida (grupo de estudo) e 34 indivíduos não obesos e com função pulmonar normal (grupo controle). Todos os pacientes realizaram espirometria para a determinação da idade pulmonar. A idade pulmonar e a idade cronológica dos indivíduos em cada grupo foram comparadas isoladamente e entre os grupos. RESULTADOS: A diferença entre a idade pulmonar e a idade cronológica no grupo com obesidade mórbida foi significativa (p < 0,0001; IC95%: 6,6-11,9 anos), com uma diferença média de 9,1 ± 11,8 anos. A diferença da idade pulmonar entre o grupo de estudo e o grupo controle foi significativa (p < 0,0002; IC95%: 7,5-16,9 anos), com uma diferença média de 12,2 ± 2,4 anos. A idade pulmonar demonstrou uma correlação positiva com a idade cronológica e o índice de massa corpórea (IMC) e uma correlação negativa com as variáveis espirométricas (p < 0,0001 para todos). A análise de regressão linear múltipla identificou as variáveis IMC e idade cronológica (p < 0,0001) como fatores preditivos significativos da idade pulmonar. CONCLUSÕES: A idade pulmonar está aumentada em pacientes com obesidade mórbida, sugerindo dano precoce e envelhecimento pulmonar acelerado, como evidenciado pela discrepância entre a idade cronológica e idade pulmonar. A determinação da idade pulmonar pode se tornar uma nova ferramenta na compreensão dos resultados da função pulmonar para pacientes e profissionais da saúde em relação ao controle da obesidade.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the lung age of patients with morbid obesity and to compare it with the chronological age of these patients, emphasizing the premature damage that morbid obesity does to the lungs. METHODS: An open, prospective cross-sectional study comprising 112 individuals: 78 patients with morbid obesity (study group); and 34 non-obese individuals with normal pulmonary function results (control group). All of the patients underwent spirometry for the determination of lung age. The lung age and the chronological age of the individuals in each group were compared in isolation and between the two groups. RESULTS: The difference between lung age and chronological age in the group with morbid obesity was significant (p < 0.0001; 95% CI: 6.6-11.9 years), the mean difference being 9.1 ± 11.8 years. The difference between the study group and the control group in terms of lung age was significant (p < 0.0002; 95% CI: 7.5-16.9 years), the mean difference being 12.2 ± 2.4 years. Lung age correlated positively with chronological age and body mass index (BMI), whereas it correlated negatively with the spirometric variables (p < 0.0001 for all). Multiple linear regression analysis identified BMI and chronological age (p < 0.0001) as significant predictors of lung age. CONCLUSIONS: Lung age is increased in patients with morbid obesity, suggesting premature damage and accelerated lung aging, as evidenced by the discrepancy between chronological age and lung age. The determination of lung age might become a new tool for understanding pulmonary function results, for patients as well as for health professionals, in relation to obesity control.
