A oficina do Cambeva (Cambeva's workshop)
by Lido Loschi
Cambeva's workshop is the first of four books of the collection "Presente de Vô" in partnership with Grupo Ponto de Partida. The book is a mixture of colours and elements that highlight the memory of the world, in which seekers of memories have the mission of bringing light and life to objects found in the travels of two characters: Zalém and Calunga. Cambeva is a restorer who, when the world lost its embrace, tried to reinvent it; he is the grandfather who mends dreams, forgotten things and lost emotions, to whom the seekers ask for help to fix something. In a magical universe, full of children, grandchildren, stories and memories of his lineage of restorers, when faced with this request for restoration, he makes room to bring back an emblematic figure who can no longer sing.

Werke. Frankfurter Ausgabe in sieben Bänden
1: Dubliner
by James Joyce, Dieter E. Zimmer
Die Neuübersetzung von Dieter E. Zimmer versucht, den heutigen Anforderungen an den Text gerecht zu werden. Sie versucht, die Struktur der Erzählungen sichtbar zu machen, indem sie von ihr her übersetzt. Das verlangt eine große Nähe zum Original, die darin etwa ihren Nachweis erbringen muß, daß sie Identisches in verschiedenen Kontexten identisch übersetzt (was in der alten Übersetzung vielfach nicht geleistet ist), oder daß sie, bis in die Abfolge der Wörter hinein und manchmal sogar bis in deren Etymologie dem Original folgt. Der neue deutsche Text versucht zu zeigen, wie das, was dasteht, zusammenhängt.
