English to Portuguese: Jung on alchemy General field: Science Detailed field: Psychology
Source text - English “...it always remains an obscure point whether the ultimate transformations in the alchemical process ought to be sought more in the material or more in the spiritual realm. Actually, however, the question is wrongly put: there was no ‘either-or’ for that age, but there did exist an intermediate realm between mind and matter, i.e., a psychic realm of subtle bodies whose characteristic it is to manifest themselves in mental as well as material form. This is the only view that makes sense of alchemical ways of thought, which must otherwise appear nonsensical.”
(Vol. 12, Par 394)
Translation - Portuguese "... permanece uma questão obscura se as transformações do processo alquímico devem ser procuradas no plano material ou no espiritual. Na verdade, essa é a forma errada de colocar a questão: não se trata de ser "um ou o outro", pois naquela época acreditava-se na existência de um plano intermediário entre a mente e a matéria, ou seja, um plano psíquico de corpos sutis que tem como característica manifestar-se mentalmente e materialmente. Essa é a única visão do pensamento alquímico que faz sentido, pois, de outra forma, parece não fazer sentido."
Portuguese to English: About Braskem General field: Bus/Financial Detailed field: Petroleum Eng/Sci
Source text - Portuguese “A capacidade de crescimento da economia brasileira vem demonstrando fôlego a cada trimestre, fazendo com que a demanda por resinas se sustente em patamares altos. Nesse contexto, o bom desempenho operacional da Braskem como um todo, mas especialmente a recuperação das operações da Quattor, é uma excelente notícia para a Companhia e também para o mercado brasileiro. Começamos neste segundo trimestre a colher os ganhos da integração com a Quattor, que apresenta oportunidades de sinergias estimadas em cerca de US$ 1,4 bilhão em valor presente, confirmando o potencial de criação de valor da aquisição. O cenário da economia e da petroquímica internacional requer atenção, seja em razão do agravamento da crise nos países desenvolvidos ou pela ligeira desaceleração da economia chinesa, com reflexos na redução da demanda por commodities no mercado global, seja pela disponibilização de novas capacidades produtivas de resinas e de petroquímicos. A Braskem permanece, porém, confiante na sua capacidade de geração de resultados e agregação de valor, perseguindo seu objetivo de longo prazo de se tornar uma das 5 maiores petroquímicas globais em enterprise value.”
Translation - English “Brazil's economic growth potential has been promissing for each quarter that goes by, creating a constant high demand for resins. In this context, Braskem's good operational performance and especially the recovery of Quattor's operations, are excelent news for the company and also for the Brazillian market. We begun harvesting, in this second quarter, the profits of the integration with Quattor, that presents sinergy opportunities estimated in about US$ 1,4 billion in present, confirming the potential of the purchase for value creation. The economic and international petrochemic scenario requires attention, either beacuase of the aggravation of the crisis in developed countries or because of the mild deceleration of the Chinese economy, that reflects in the reduction of the demand for commodities in the global market, or because of the fact that new resin and petrochemical production possibilities have been made available. Braskem remains, however, confident in it's capacity to generate results, persuing it's long term objective of becoming one of the top 5 in global petrochemical enterprise value.”
