English to Portuguese: In a Different Voice: Psychological Theory and Women's Development General field: Social Sciences Detailed field: Psychology
Source text - English Levinson's conception is informed by the idea of "the
Dream," which orders the seasons of a man's life in the same way
that Jupiter's prophecy of a glorious destiny steers the course of
Aeneas' journey. The Dream about which Levinson writes is also a
vision of glorious achievement whose realization or modification
will shape the character and life of the man. In the salient relationships in Levinson's analysis, the "mentor" facilitates the realization of the Dream, while the "special woman" is the helpmate who encourages the hero to shape and live out his vision: "As the novice adult tries to separate from his family and pre-adult world, and to enter an adult world, he must form significant relationships with other adults who will facilitate his work on the Dream. Two of the most important figures in this drama arc the 'mentor' and the 'special woman' (p. 93).
Translation - Portuguese A concepção de Levinson é baseada na ideia de "O Sonho", que ordena as estações da vida de um homem da mesma forma que a profecia de Júpiter de um glorioso futuro conduz a jornada de Enéias. O Sonho do qual Levinson escreve é também a visão de uma gloriosa conquista, cuja realização ou modificação formará o caráter e a vida de um homem. Dos mais proeminentes relacionamentos nas análises de Levinson, o "mentor" facilita a realização do Sonho, enquanto a "mulher especial" é a companheira que encoraja o herói a dar forma e viver sua visão: "Enquanto o jovem adulto tenta se separar da sua família e do mundo pré-adulto, e adentrar ao mundo adulto, ele deve formar relacionamentos significativos com outros adultos que irão facilitar seu trabalho no Sonho. Duas das mais importantes figuras nesse drama são o 'mentor' e a 'mulher especial'" (p. 93).
English to Portuguese: Walking Beside the Kamogawa, Remembering Nansen and Fudo and Gary’s Poem General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Poetry & Literature
Source text - English Here are two half-grown black cats perched on a
lump of old teakettle brick plastic garbage
ten feet from the west bank of the River.
I won’t save them. Right here Gary sat with dying Nansen,
The broken cat, warped and sick every day of its life,
Puke & drool on the tatami for Gary to wipe up & scold,
“If you get any worse I’m going to have you put away!”
The vet injected an overdose of nemby and for half an hour
Nansen was comfortable.
How can we do this, how can we live and die?
How does anybody choose for somebody else.
How dare we appear in this Hell-mouth weeping tears,
Busting our heads in ten fragments making vows &
promises?
Suzuki Roshi said, “If I die, it’s all right. If I should
live, it’s all right. Sun-face Buddha, Moon-face Buddha.”
Why do I always fall for that old line?
We don’t treat each other any better. When will I
Stop writing it down.
Translation - Portuguese Aqui estão dois gatos pretos meio crescidos empoleirados em um
velho pedaço de tijolo de lixo de chaleira plástica
à dez pés da margem oeste do Rio.
Eu não irei salvá-los. Bem aqui Gary sentou com o moribundo Nansen,
O gato quebrado, deformado e doente todos os dias da sua vida,
Vômito & baba no tatami para o Gary limpar & gralhar,
"Se você piorar eu vou dar um jeito em você!"
O veterinário injetou uma overdose de nemby e por meia hora
Nansen estava confortável.
Como conseguimos fazer isso, como conseguimos viver e morrer?
Como alguém escolhe por outro alguém.
Como ousamos aparecer nesta boca do inferno derramando lágrimas,
Partindo nossas cabeças em dez fragmentos fazendo votos &
promessas?
Suzuki Roshi disse "Se eu morrer, tudo bem. Se devo viver,
tudo bem. Buda com rosto de sol, Buda com rosto de lua".
Por que eu sempre volto para essa velha frase?
Nós não nos tratamos melhor. Quando eu irei
parar de escrever isso.

Bio
My
background with the English language goes way back to when I was a kid and
helped my friends with online games (that is how I learned, by the way). At
University, I focused on Linguistics and Literature, two other important areas
of interest to me.
On a
personal level, I am an avid cooker, enjoy reading and learning about computer
hardware (hey, I built my PC!) and I am also a little bit obsessed with music:
I am always searching and listening to new artists and genres.
