O presente livro traz, a partir de uma perspectiva interdisciplinar, estudos de caso e análises sobre diferentes possibilidades de uso da tecnologia a favor do patrimônio e sobre formas de desenvolvimento de resiliência e mitigações aos efeitos das mudanças climáticas. A obra, composta por oito capítulos, dos quais sete foram produzidos no seio do Laboratório do Ambiente (https://labam.dev/), nos traz uma orientação para todo nosso potencial de mudança sobre o mundo que nos cerca. As relações entre estudos de caso concretos, reflexões teóricas e metodológicas e, em especial, a proposição de caminhos para construirmos um presente e um futuro diferentes, nos mostram que os tempos podem ser difíceis, mas é neste tempo presente que podemos optar e construir um amanhã (muito próximo!) melhor. Na certeza de uma boa leitura, Aline Carvalho Coordenadora do Comitê de Mudanças Climáticas e Patrimônio do Icomos Brasil

The dynamics of immigration, international commerce and the postcolonial world make it inevitable that much translation is done into a second language, despite the prevailing wisdom that translators should only work into their mother tongue. This book is the first study to explore the phenomenon of translation into a second language in a way that will interest applied linguists, translators and translation teachers, and ESOL teachers working with advanced level students. Rather than seeing translation into a second language as deficient output, this study adopts an interlanguage framework to consider L2 translation as the product of developing competence; learning to translate is seen as a s...
