Leviathan — Page 2

English → Pt Preface Level 9/10

I have restricted my use of full capitalization to those places where Hobbes used it, except in the chapter headings, which I have fully capitalized, where Hobbes used a mixture of full capitalization and italics.

Restringi o uso de letras maiúsculas completas aos lugares onde Hobbes as utilizou, exceto nos títulos dos capítulos, que escrevi completamente em maiúsculas, onde Hobbes usou uma mistura de letras maiúsculas completas e itálico.

Where it is clear that the italics are to indicate the text is quoting, I have introduced quotation marks.

Onde fica claro que o itálico serve para indicar que o texto está a citar, introduzi aspas.

Within quotation marks I have retained the capitalization that Hobbes used.

Dentro das aspas, mantive as maiúsculas que Hobbes utilizou.

Where italics seem to be used for emphasis, or for proper names, or just because, I have capitalized the initial letter of the words.

Onde o itálico parece ser utilizado para dar ênfase, ou para nomes próprios, ou simplesmente por ser assim, escrevi em maiúscula a letra inicial das palavras.

This has the disadvantage that they are not then distinguished from those that Hobbes capitalized in plain text, but the extent of his italics would make the text very ugly if I was to use an underscore or slash.

Isto tem a desvantagem de não ficarem distinguidas das palavras que Hobbes escreveu em maiúsculas no texto simples, mas a extensão dos seus itálicos tornaria o texto muito feio se eu utilizasse um sublinhado ou uma barra.

Where the margin notes are either to introduce the paragraph subject, or to show where he introduces word definitions, I have included them as headers to the paragraph, again with all words having initial capitals, and on a shortened line.

Onde as notas de margem servem para introduzir o assunto do parágrafo, ou para mostrar onde ele introduz definições de palavras, incluí-as como cabeçalhos do parágrafo, novamente com todas as palavras tendo letras iniciais maiúsculas, e numa linha mais curta.

For margin references to quotes, I have included them in the text, in brackets immediately next to the quotation.

Para as referências de margem a citações, incluí-as no texto, entre parênteses imediatamente a seguir à citação.

Where Hobbes included references in the main text, I have left them as he put them, except to change his square brackets to round.

Onde Hobbes incluiu referências no texto principal, deixei-as como ele as colocou, exceto para converter os seus parênteses retos em redondos.

For the Greek alphabet, I have simply substituted the nearest ordinary letters that I can, and I have used initial capitals for foreign language words.

Para o alfabeto grego, simplesmente substituí pelas letras comuns mais próximas que consegui encontrar, e usei letras iniciais maiúsculas para as palavras em língua estrangeira.
