Association between doubly labelled water-calibrated energy intake and objectively measured physical activity with mortality risk in older adults
Authors: Watanabe Daiki , Yoshida Tsukasa , Watanabe Yuya , Yamada Yosuke , Miyachi Motohiko , Kimura Misaka
Published: December 2023

Background

Physical activity or biomarker-calibrated energy intake (EI) alone is associated with mortality in older adults; the interaction relationship between the combined use of both factors and mortality has not been examined. We evaluated the relationship between mortality and calibrated EI and step counts in older adults.

Methods

This prospective study included 4,159 adults aged ≥65 years who participated in the Kyoto-Kameoka study in Japan and wore a triaxial accelerometer between 1 April and 15 November 2013. The calibrated EI was calculated based on a previously developed equation using EI biomarkers. The step count was obtained from the accelerometer ≥ 4 days. Participants were classified into the following four groups: low EI (LEI)/low step counts (LSC) group (EI: <2,400 kcal/day in men and <1,900 kcal/day in women; steps: <5,000 /day), n = 1,352; high EI (HEI)/LSC group (EI: ≥2,400 kcal/day in men and ≥1,900 kcal/day in women; steps: <5,000 /day), n = 1,586; LEI/high step counts (HSC) group (EI: <2,400 kcal/day in men and < 1,900 kcal/day in women; steps: ≥5,000 /day), n = 471; and HEI/HSC group (EI: ≥2,400 kcal/day in men and ≥1,900 kcal/day in women; steps: ≥5,000 /day), n = 750. Mortality-related data were collected until 30 November 2016. We performed a multivariable Cox proportional hazard analysis.

Results

The median follow-up period was 3.38 years (14,046 person-years), and 111 mortalities were recorded. After adjusting for confounders, the HEI/HSC group had the lowest all-cause mortality rate compared to other groups (LEI/LSC: reference; HEI/LSC: hazard ratio [HR]: 0.71, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.41–1.23; LEI/HSC: HR: 0.59, 95% CI: 0.29–1.19; and HEI/HSC: HR: 0.10, 95% CI: 0.01–0.76). No significant interaction was observed between the calibrated EI and steps with mortality. The spline model showed that 35–42 kcal/100 steps/day of EI/100 steps was associated with the lowest mortality risk.

Conclusions

HR mortality risk was lowest at 35–42 kcal/100 steps/day, suggesting that very high (≥56 kcal) or low (<28 kcal) EI/100 steps are not inversely associated with mortality. Adherence to optimal EI and adequate physical activity may provide sufficient energy balance to explain the inverse association with mortality among older Japanese adults.
Political analysis and forecasting: domestic experience (D.A. Yezhov's textbook "Political analysis and forecasting")
Authors: Alekseev Roman
Published: December 2023

The purpose of the published review is to evaluate and analyze a textbook that has no analogues in the domestic political science educational and methodological literature, authored by Candidate of Political Sciences, Associate Professor D.A. Yezhov. The author of the textbook has gained fame in the scientific community due to his research in the field of showization of politics, both in modern Russia and in various countries of the world community, as well as in the study of election campaigns and the peculiarities of electoral behavior of Russian voters during parliamentary and presidential elections. He has experience working at the Russian Center for Electoral Technology Training at the CEC of the Russian Federation, so he considers election problems from a practical point of view. The peer-reviewed textbook intended for undergraduate students studying in political science specialties provides a detailed description of the categorical apparatus of political analysis and forecasting in domestic political science, these mechanisms are considered in a comparative way with foreign analogues. The methodological and conceptual foundations of analytical and predictive techniques used in political research are analyzed. The experience of their application in modern Russia is considered on concrete examples from political practice (including managerial activities). The emphasis is on the study and comparison of methods of political analysis, political decision-making and forecasting (both in the short and long term). The author does not forget about the coverage of such controversial topics of the course as the analysis of theoretical and applied features of the domestic political TV discourse and the study of theoretical and methodological aspects and problems of forecasting electoral behavior at elections of various levels.
Stereotype as an Institution of Historical Memory: the Case of the Russian Generation Z
Authors: Poceluev Sergey
Published: December 2023

The purpose of the article is to clarify the methodology of studying stereotypes inherent in the dialect of memory of the Russian generation Z, as well as to determine strategies for their (de-)construction in the oppositional liberal discourse. The main methodological guideline for the author is the neoinstitutional approach to stereotypes, which is concretized based on secondary data from sociological and linguistic studies. As a result, the author comes to the conclusion that, firstly, stereotypes play a key role in constructing the image of historical epochs among the youngest generation of Russians; secondly, the Stalinist and Yeltsin epochs are the most important for the dialect of memory of generation Z; thirdly, an acute ideological struggle is being waged within Russian society for the interpretation of these epochs; finally, the construction or deconstruction of stereotypes as elements of the dialect of memory of generation Z plays a crucial role in this struggle. Analyzing in more detail the relevant strategies of the Russian liberal opposition, the author emphasizes its desire, on the one hand, to weaken the "pro-Stalinist" (pro - Soviet) stereotypes in the minds of young people and, on the contrary, to strengthen the "pro-Yeltsin" ones, constructing an image of the "glorious (but not "dashing") nineties". The article notes that an important role in this work with the stereotypes is played by the aesthetic experience of young people as a space for legitimizing power at the level of theoretical statements in a rudimentary form
What is the reason for the success of Turkey's military operations in Syria in 2017-2020?
Authors: Gasanov K.
Published: December 2023

The Arab Spring initially created an opportunity for Turkey to expand its influence through support for the opposition. However, during the civil war in Syria, the Kurds strengthened their influence and took control of the border with Turkey. The authorities in Ankara responded to this change in regional geopolitics with three military operations. This article will discuss operations “Euphrates Shield”, “Olive Branch”, “Spring of Peace”. The purpose of this work is to identify the reasons for Ankara’s military actions in northern Syria from 2016 to 2019. The author proceeds from the fact that although the formation of autonomous Kurdish cantons was a sufficient condition for provoking escalation, the decisive factor was the international system, which allowed Turkey to realize its goals in northern Syria. Using the method of factor analysis, the author identifies the circumstances that had a catalytic effect on the decision of the Turkish authorities to conduct military actions in Syria. While content analysis allows us to determine the attitude of third countries to this Turkish policy. The author analyzes events through the prism of neorealist theory, which puts the international system at the forefront. In conclusion, the author comes up to the statement that the decisive factor that predetermined the outcome of the three Turkish military actions was the reaction of the international community.

Published: December 2023

Excessive carbon emissions will lead to catastrophic consequences such as global warming and rising oceans and will also have a serious negative impact on the human food supply and living environment. The steel industry is characterized by high pollution, and about 18% of China’s carbon emissions come from the steel industry. The ‘double carbon’ strategy has brought important tasks and severe challenges to China’s steel industry. With a view to evaluating the achievements of carbon emission control, carbon emission monitoring systems at home and abroad have been continuously established and improved. For the steel industry, accurate and efficient carbon monitoring technology has a guiding role in guiding energy conservation and carbon reduction. Traditional carbon emission accounting methods have some problems, such as long cycles and poor data quality, which restrict the improvement of the lean level of carbon emission monitoring management. Firstly, this paper investigates and analyzes the productive process and carbon emission process of the steel industry and constructs an entropy weight-grey correlation -TOPSIS analysis method for the correlation between carbon emissions and influencing factors. Based on the above content, a carbon emission monitoring method based on multiple influencing factors is put forward, and the high monitoring accuracy of the model is proved by taking the Tianjin steel industry as an example. The results show that information mining of relevant data can strikingly increase the accuracy of carbon emission monitoring in the steel industry.
A Decomposition Analysis of Algeria’s Residential Energy Consumption Change: (2000–2020)
Authors: Traich Maamar , Rahmane Amal
Published: December 2023

Between 2000 and 2020, the residential sector’s share of Algeria’s final energy consumption was 62.20% and 46.05% respectively; this was much higher than the global average of 31%. This enables us to comprehend the factors that contribute to the rise in energy consumption in the residential sector and to carry out a quantitative analysis to determine the extent to which energy efficiency reduces energy consumption in the sector between 2000 and 2020. To accomplish this, we employ the decomposition analysis approach by using the Logarithmic Mean Divisia Index (LMDI). The results of the study showed that the energy subsidy factor had a strong impact on increasing residential energy consumption in Algeria, compared to the population growth factor. In addition, the energy intensity factor and the economic structure factor did not help reduce energy consumption levels. According to these findings, Algerian public policymakers should strictly implement the national energy program Horizon 2030 by rationalising energy use, eliminating subsidies gradually, and monitoring the implementation of energy efficiency measures in the residential sector.

Authors:   Economic Research Institute FEB RAS, Mazitova Marina
Published: December 2023

Based on open sources, the factors that influenced the dynamics of foreign trade indicators of the Far Eastern Federal District in the first half of 2023 were identified. It is shown that, in general, the foreign trade of the macroregion reflected all-Russian trends – a decrease in exports and an increase in imports. Among the factors that determined the exports, the following were highlighted: a reduction in demand from countries that are the main importers of Far Eastern products, due to sanctions pressure; unfavorable price conditions for almost all main commodity items of Far Eastern exports; export restrictions introduced in the Russian Federation from 2022. The increase in import supplies through the FEFD was significantly influenced during this period by the reorientation of commodity flows from the western regions

Las élites del pensamiento jurídico en Colombia: rupturas en el saber del derecho
Authors: Bayona Aristizábal Diana Maite , Milla Antonio
Published: December 2023

El artículo explora los principales atributos del pensamiento jurídico colombiano acerca del derecho, a partir de un análisis de las élites jurídicas. Con ese objetivo, además, son analizadas las condiciones y contextos de la producción contemporánea del conocimiento jurídico nacional. El criterio para definir las élites consistió en establecer cuáles eran los autores y las investigaciones con mayor reconocimiento e influencia entre los lectores (de modo primordial, estudiantes de derecho, juristas y expertos investigadores). Estas élites son identificadas utilizando como fuente el AD Scientific Index - Colombia Scientist Law, esto es, el ranking 2023 de científicos del derecho en el país, lo que se combinó con información extraída de la base de datos de Scopus, que permitió construir un segundo ranking. Los resultados, obtenidos con aplicación de un método analítico, permitieron establecer que la sociología jurídica domina el saber sobre el derecho, combinada con la dogmática, al igual que varias teorías críticas innovadoras, hace algunos pocos años del todo ajenas a las escuelas de derecho. También se comprobó que esas élites tienen rasgos étnicos, de género, geolocalización, formación académica de grado y posgrado, estratificación social y situación laboral análogas.
Autonomía estratégica abierta: la respuesta de la Unión Europea a un nuevo escenario geopolítico.
Authors: Neves Pérez Hugo
Published: December 2023

La autonomía estratégica abierta es el nuevo paradigma que marca la Política de Exterior y de Seguridad Común de la Unión Europea (PESC), un eje innovador que busca definir los objetivos y horizontes de la Unión Europea (UE) en un mundo globalizado y cambiante. La autonomía estratégica abierta, a diferencia de su anterior versión que no añadía ese adjetivo de abierto, tiene la finalidad mantener la estabilidad y elbienestar de los ciudadanos europeos, involucrando a los actores no estatales y de la sociedad civil, al mismo tiempo que garantiza la autonomía del proyecto comunitario. El presente estudio tiene como objeto definir qué se entiende por autonomía estratégica abierta, centrando el análisis en sus retos, oportunidades y fortalezas.De esta forma, se podrá discernir el giro reciente de la UE en materia de seguridad y de defensa, reflejando cómo esta nueva estrategia no solo se centra en ese ámbito, sino que, también, abarca e influye a todas las políticas de la UE. La autonomía estratégica abierta se presenta como un impulso para la cooperación europea y global, permitiendo a la UE aumentar su capacidad de liderazgo en asuntos internacionales relacionadoscon la política industrial, el comercio internacional, el medio ambiente, las migraciones, la digitalización y, por supuesto, la seguridad y la defensa. Se trata, pues, de un concepto que marcará el modo de actuación de la UE en las próximas décadas; una hoja de ruta que intentará ejecutar para afrontar el nuevo escenario global, mucho más cambiante, e incierto, que el de la época conocida como paz liberal que auguraba, en su día, las tesis del fin de la historia.
A Scale Adaptation Study on Musical Ability Beliefs
Authors: UÇAR Murat Cenap , ERİM Ali
Published: December 2023

Beliefs, especially in the second half of the 20th century, have been the subject of research in many fields. One of these areas is education. When the literature on beliefs and education was examined, it was seen that the beliefs of academicians, teachers, pre-service teachers, and students were discussed in the context of different dimensions and characteristics. Some researchers emphasized that people's beliefs play a role in their behavior, others also stated that individuals' beliefs affect their attitudes, behaviors, and decisions. In this sense, approaches regarding the impact of beliefs on an individual's professional life have gained importance, and many studies have been conducted in this field. Music teaching is among the professions frequently discussed in these studies and research about beliefs. In addition, it seems that the beliefs of pre-service teachers who have not yet stepped into the profession are among the issues that researchers are significantly interested in. This study includes all stages of the adaptation process of a measurement tool developed for research in the field of music education into Turkish. The scale subject to the study was developed by Biasutti (2010) to determine individuals' belief levels regarding the phenomenon of musical ability. As a result of the adaptation of the measurement tool Music Abilities Beliefs Questionnaire (MABQ), consisting of 4 factors and 51 items, 4 factors were reduced to 46 items and its name was translated into Turkish as “Müzikal Yetenek İnanç Ölçeği”.
Synopsis of a Treasure. A Transdisciplinary Study of Medieval Gold Workings Biographies
Authors: Martiniello Stefania , Capitanio Antonella , Sciuto Claudia , Legnaioli Stefano , Raneri Simona
Published: December 2023

The article aims to show how a transdisciplinary approach can contribute to a better understanding of the composite biography of a precious object. The study focuses on the Cintola del Duomo (Museum of the Opera del Duomo, Pisa), one of the most famous objects in the history of goldsmithing, both for its exceptional manufacturing quality and for its devotional value. For a long time, the Cintola was considered a fragment of a long garland – decorated with precious stones, enamel, and silver plates – that was displayed on the façade of the Cathedral on certain days of the liturgical calendar. Detailed historical studies suggested that the garland was lost in the early 1300s, while the object now in the museum is more likely to be a reconstruction, decorated with ancient and modern gems. In situ diagnostic campaigns were carried out on the garland using portable Raman spectroscopy (i-Raman, B&W Tek) and portable X-Ray fluorescnece (XRF) (Elio, Bruker) to reveal the identity of the gems and enamels preliminarily studied by gemmological analysis. The combination of analytical techniques made it possible to better outline the complex history of the artefacts. The analysis provided information on the identity of the gems, proposing an interesting question about their possible relationship with the crown of Henry VII of Luxembourg (in the same museum). The study includes aspects related to the materiality of the objects, revealing the socio-cultural context in which the object was produced and supporting its recontextualisation in the museum as a symbolic representation of the past.

Published: December 2023

Objectives

Glioblastoma is a fast-growing and aggressive brain tumor. Despite the current treatment methods, such as chemical and surgical operations, the prognosis is still poor. Therefore, combined therapeutic strategies are proposed to maximize therapeutic efficacy and reduce toxicity. Thymoquinone has been shown to have neuroprotective effects in addition to its anti-cancer effects on different types of cancer. 5-Fluorouracil, on the other hand, is a cytotoxic chemotherapy agent used to treat cancer. As a synergistic combinational approach, this study aimed to examine the antiproliferative effects and production of reactive oxygen species in a glioblastoma cell line.

Methods

We have tested thymoquinone and 5-fluorouracil alone and in their combination to observe cellular growth with MTT assay. The combinational effects of the agents were determined by the CompuSYN software program. Cell proliferation was assayed with crystal violet assay. Reactive oxygen species production was analyzed by 2′,7′-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate in glioblastoma cells.

Results

Thymoquinone and 5-fluorouracil inhibited cell growth of glioblastoma cells with half maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC50) of 45.93 and 14.02 µM for 48 h, respectively. At synergistic combinational concentrations, the crystal violet assay demonstrated that there is a positive correlation between combination index values and cell proliferation. Also, an increment in the production of reactive oxygen species was observed upon combinational treatments.

Conclusions

Our results indicate that the combinational strategy of these two agents reduced cell viability and proliferation in glioblastoma cells and showed strong synergistic anticancer efficiency.

Role of managerial support in the relationship of psychological resilience with career satisfaction
Authors: Öztürk Kübra , Bozkurt Serdar
Published: December 2023

Today, retaining employees is difficult due to changes in information and communication technologies, increasing competition speed, and other environmental factors. Therefore, organisations’ management daily increases their interest in positive psychology to retain employees and reveal their strengths. One concept that accompanies positive psychology and positive organisational behaviour is resilience (Luthans, 2002). It is known that individuals who are more psychologically resilient can produce positive outcomes by overcoming adverse emotional events (Shirazi, Laei, & Mosavi, 2016). Career satisfaction (CS), another concept of work, appears as a concept that is likely to be affected by changes in organizational structure, mobility, and employee expectations (Kraimer, Greco, Seibert, & Sargent, 2019). However, CS is one of the most important results of the individual’s career success (Hofmans, Dries, & Pepermans, 2008). In this context, this study aims to reveal the role of management support in the relationship between CS and psychological resilience (PR). The data collected from 200 white-collar employees was evaluated using the SPSS Programme and the Hayes Process. As a result of the analysis, it was determined that MS is a moderator in the relationship between PR and CS.

Social media usage in industrial markets: An examination of technopark companies in Turkey
Authors: Aydın Ünal Duygu
Published: December 2023

This study examines the extent to which companies operating within the technology park, ranked in the top 3 in Turkey according to the performance index, utilise social media marketing. The research explores the level of their engagement, the platforms they leverage, and their relative activity across these platforms. Furthermore, a profile has been delineated specifically for companies in technology-intensive industrial markets. Out of the 1121 companies accessed on their websites, it was observed that 55% of them had added redirects to their social media accounts. Among the 615 companies with accessible social media accounts, it was noted that 102 of them had profiles on Facebook, Instagram, Linked In, YouTube, and X. On the other hand, it has been found that the percentages of companies sharing content on their social media accounts at least one year ago are noteworthy (Among firms using YouTube 33.3%, Facebook 5.9%, and X 33.7%). This study offers perspectives for academic circles and practitioners through analyses of the involvement levels of firms operating in a business-to-business context in social media marketing and the platforms they utilise.

The samples were analysed for CPV and CCoV by rapid test and PCR test. After freezethawing, the samples were checked again with the same tests. Results: CPV was positively diagnosed by rapid test and PCR in 2 and 29 fresh stool samples, respectively, and CCoV in 14 and 28 samples. CPV positive samples did not change while CCoV was diagnosed as positive in 10 samples and 28 samples by rapid test and PCR, respectively, after the freeze-thaw procedure. Although there were no differences in the diagnosis of CPV, the sensitivity of the rapid test in the diagnosis of CCoV decreased after the freezethaw procedure. In addition, only CPV-2b type was detected in CPV positive samples and both GI and GII subtypes were detected in CCoV positive samples as molecular. In conclusion, it was observed that rapid tests are not sensitive for accurate diagnosis of CPV and CCoV infections. Conclusion: The importance of choosing molecular diagnostic methods and using fresh samples for accurate diagnosis of virological infections can be emphasized.

Authors: Aydenizoz Meral , Yorulmaz Ali Can
Published: December 2023

Aim: The aim of this study was conducted to determine the presence and prevalence of Nosemosis in honeybees in Kırıkkale region by Multiplex PCR. Materials and Methods: Samples were collected from 52 apiaries in Kırıkkale City Center, Bahşili, Balışeyh, Keskin, Sulakyurt and Yahşihan districts. The thorax and abdomen of ten bees collected from every 5 colonies were dissected and crushed with sterile physiological water in a porcelain mortar. The samples with Nosema spores were stained with Saffron and the multiplex PCR was applied to detect specimens to the same samples. Results: Nosema spp. spores were observed in 12 out of 52 apiaries (23.07%) microscopically. Among the positive samples, Balışeyh county was found with the highest rate of 57.14%. The township district is followed by Delice district with 33.33% and Kırıkkale /Center district with a ratio of 23.07%. Nosema spores were not found in samples taken from Bahşili, Keskin, Sulakyurt and Yahşihan districts. In general, the infection rates of the districts were determined as Central (5.76%), Balışeyh (7.69%), and Delice (9.61%). All the positive samples were detected as N. ceranae by multiplex PCR. Conclusion: This is the first study to determine the presence and prevalence of Nosemosis in honey bees in the Kırıkkale region and its etiological agent, N. ceranae. In line with the data obtained in this study, it was concluded that Nosemosis should be taken into consideration in bee losses in the region and beekeepers should be made aware of the issue.

Published: December 2023

Aim: This study aimed to investigate the protective effects of carvacrol (CRV) on rat liver against acrylamide (AA)-induced hepatotoxicity. Materials and Methods: A total of 30 Wistar Albino rats were used in the study. Rats were divided into 4 groups: Control (n:6), CRV (n:8, 50 mg/kg/ day carvacrol, i.p), AA (n:8, 40 mg/kg/day acrylamide, gavage) and AA+CRV (n:8, 40 mg/kg/day acrylamide, gavage + 50 mg/kg/day carvacrol i.p). At the end of the 15-day study period, the rats, whose blood samples were taken under anesthesia, were euthanized and necropsied. Liver function tests were examined from serums. At the same time for histological analysis, scoring, and hematoxylin-eosin staining, liver tissues were preserved in 10% formaldehyde solution. Results: In microscopic examination, it was determined that AA causes hydropic/vacuolar degeneration, fatty changes, necrosis/apoptosis, bile duct proliferation, hepatic cord dissociation, congestion, megalocytosis and mononuclear cell infiltration. Parallelly, AA raised the levels of ALP, AST, and ALT. The inclusion of CRV to the diet improved histological structure and liver function tests considerably. These results show that CRV has a hepatoprotective effect by reducing AA-induced liver damage. Conclusion: This study showed that CRV attenuated AA-induced liver injury. It is considered that its preventive effect against liver damage is due to its antioxidant properties. However, more research is needed to determine the specific mechanism at the molecular level and offer therapeutic management suggestions.
Detection of bovine coronavirus (BCoV) infection in cattle with clinical respiratory signs by PCR and investigation of the serological status of these animals
Authors: Menekse Meltem , Simsek Atilla
Published: December 2023

Aim: It was aimed to reveal the antigenic and serological prevalence of bovine coronavirus (BCoV) in cattle with clinically respiratory infection and to evaluate the relationship between virus shedding and serological status of animals in this study. Materials and Methods: In the study, nasal swab samples were collected from a total of 92 cattle of different gender between 0 and 2 years of age with clinical respiratory symptoms. These samples were subjected to RT-PCR using specific primer pairs. Furthermore, serum samples were also collected from the same animals and evaluated for BCoV-specific antibodies through an indirect ELISA method. Results: Ten (10.87%) swap samples were defined as positive for BCoV using RT-PCR. The seropositivity rate was 93.48% (86/92) in cattle by ELISA and 90% (9/10) in virus-shedding animals with nasal swab samples. Conclusion: The fact that 93.47% seropositivity was detected in unvaccinated animals against coronavirus in this study indicates that the animals were exposed to BCoV through colostrum or at a certain period of their lives. However the fact that 9 out of 10 animals with BCoV detected in swab samples also have BCoV-specific antibodies casts doubt on the efficacy of these antibodies in protecting against respiratory BCoV infections. We concluded that more detailed studies are needed to reveal the role of antibodies in respiratory coronavirus infections.
Expansión de multiversos literarios como efecto de curvaturas conceptuales interdisciplinarias en la función lectora.
Authors: Arley Fonseca Mauricio
Published: December 2023

Los multiversos literarios seguirán en expansión si se cumple la condición de que la trayectoria de sus cuerdas textuales sea vibrada desde marcos de referencias de lecturas múltiples, por la convergencia entre curvaturas epistemológicas y sus conceptos interdisciplinarios.

En este trabajo se han elegido distintos fragmentos literarios: una tragedia griega, un mito indígena, cuentos y novela de ciencia ficción. El objetivo es demostrar que, para aplicar teorías de multiversos, solo se requiere distinguir ciertas cualidades en los textos literarios; esto no es exclusivo de un género literario, movimiento o de textos futuristas.

Finalmente, las teorías de recepción lectora intervienen para evidenciar cómo un texto literario toma vitalidad al no contar con un comienzo o fin (El libro de arena, Borges), y por las diversidades de espacios y tiempos narrativos.
«El Cuaderno de Tapas Azules»: Adán Buenosayres y la creación del universo poético
Authors: González Treviño Eridania
Published: December 2023

“El Cuaderno de Tapas Azules” es el sexto libro, de siete, de la novela Adán Buenosayres (1948), del escritor argentino Leopoldo Marechal; la extracción para su estudio obedece principalmente a que en este capítulo se establece la propuesta estética del autor a través del poeta Adán Buenosayres, personaje principal del texto. Es aquí donde encuentran su origen el proceso de creación, los principios filosóficos, metafísicos y artísticos vertidos a lo largo de la novela y que son analizados en este artículo desde el ámbito de lo simbólico. Tanto la propuesta poética como la posición estructural del capítulo respecto a los otros seis libros, se estudian, en un primer momento, en su carácter de viaje de ascenso y en relación paródica e incluso intertextual con la Divina comedia, La vita nuova y los preceptos rectores de los Fedeli d’Amore, para en una segunda y concluyente etapa, profundizar en el análisis del personaje como creador de su propio universo poético.

Mitología grecorromana y literatura popular costarricense
Authors: Guevara Macías Elisa , Cerdas Fallas Maricela
Published: December 2023

En este artículo se realiza un análisis comparativo de tres motivos presentes en los mitos clásicos grecorromanos y en la literatura popular costarricense (cuentos y leyendas). El estudio comienza con el motivo de la metamorfosis, para lo cual se consideran tres variantes: como medio de escape de un acecho amoroso, como castigo a una impiedad y causado por hechicería o magia. En segundo lugar se examina el motivo de la monstruosidad, tanto física como actitudinal. Finalmente, se compara el uso del motivo del ingenio desde tres aspectos distintos: el acertijo, las soluciones ingeniosas y el empleo del disfraz.

El fundamento peirceano y la imaginación pragmática para la apertura de las modalidades en la construcción y explicación de los modelos de mundo.
Authors: Martínez Ballestrín Raquel
Published: December 2023

La propuesta modal que Doležel (1999) plantea para el análisis de los mundos posibles del texto literario cuenta con la ventaja de caracterizar la nómina de existencia del mundo ficticio desde su actuación y valoración en el mismo. No obstante, la tendencia inmanentista de la propuesta obvia las entidades pragmáticas de autor y lector desde las que el mundo posible es valorado de acuerdo con la realidad efectiva en la que estas se ubican. Así, planteamos en este estudio una apertura de los cuatro operadores modales hacia su dimensión pragmática a partir del establecimiento de una analogía entre el fundamento peirceano y las modalidades narrativas. Esta analogía evidencia que la accesibilidad semiótica entre el mundo fictivo y la realidad efectiva de autor y lector establece la valoración de verosimilitud que determina la caracterización del modelo de mundo resultante.
Huellas auráticas en la poesía última de Olga Orozco (1979-1999)
Authors: Calderón Mediavilla Hector
Published: December 2023

El presente artículo explora la poesía última de Olga Orozco a la luz de la secularización racionalista y de su tipificación como una época sin aura. En paralelo a la famosa conceptualización benjaminiana, se estudia aquí el particular tratamiento y formalización de lo sintomático en el texto poético orozquiano. Enseguida, las consecuencias de tal articulación permitirían escrutar una salida a la metafísica del aura, transformando el objeto artístico en huella o residuo secularizado.
