Brazilian Memories , 24 de novembro de 2008

It is impossible to be dispassionate while writing about Brazil. I wouldn’t be able to do it even if I were hung by my feet from a plank over a school of menacing sharks and told that my life depended on it. Such is the intensity of feeling and the warmth of memories that the name evokes. So naturally, “A formal report on my trip to Brazil” sounds like an oxymoron! The beginnings of this saga (...)

Translating the Charter of Human Responsibilities from French to Wolof (Senegal), or the difficulty of translating the concept of responsibility into Wolof por Sidiki Abdoul DAFF, 10 de abril de 2005

The job of translating the Charter was given to a group of Senegalese linguists who are national language specialists and/or promoters.

The Charter of Human Responsibilities: from written to oral expression por Sidiki Abdoul DAFF, 10 de abril de 2005
