Glutamate is the primary excitatory neurotransmitter in the CNS and
disturbances in glutamate transport contribute to a number of
neurological and neurodegenerative disorders. Appropriate levels of
cholesterol are very important for the proper functioning of
glutamate transport while unbalanced levels of cholesterol have
been implicated in the pathogenesis of disorders such as stroke,
ischemia, traumatic brain injury, and neurotoxicity. In the
proposed book, the author presents data from the literature and
from her own lab to address the extent to and way in which membrane
cholesterol modulates presynaptic glutamate transport and whether
lowering the level of cholesterol available can offer some
neuroprotective benefits.
This book tackles the interface between translation and pragmatics.
It comprises case studies in English, Greek, Russian and Chinese
translation practice, which highlight the potential of translation
to interact with pragmatics and reshape meaning making in a target
language in various pragmatically relevant ways. Fiction and
non-fiction genres merge to suggest a rich inventory of
interlingual transfer instances which can broaden our perception of
what may be shifting in translation transfer. Authors use an emic
approach (in addition to an etic one) to confirm results which they
often present graphically. The book has a didactic perspective in
that it shows how pragmatic awareness can regulate translator
behaviour and is also useful in foreign language teaching, because
it shows how important implicit knowledge can be, in shaping the
message in a foreign language.
