“Dear TD”: Ruth Epperson Kennell-Theodore Dreiser Correspondence, 1928-1929
Authors: Panova Olga Yu.
Published: December 2021

During his travel to the Soviet Union (November 4, 1927 — January 13, 1928) and on his return to the USA Theodore Dreiser was keeping in touch and dealing with Soviet literary institutions, periodicals and his Russian acquaints — publishers, editors, critics, etc. Ruth Epperson Kennell (1889 –1977) played an important role in making and maintaining these contacts in late 1920s-early 1930s. Ruth Kennell, who spent almost ten years in the Soviet Union, was a reference librarian (1925 –1927) in the Comintern Library in Moscow. On November 4, 1927 she got acquainted with Dreiser and was hired by him to serve as his secretary and guide as he toured the Soviet Union. Her role as a “Russian secretary”, personal assistant and friend is depicted in Dreiser’s Russian Diary and Kennell’s memoir Theodore Dreiser and the Soviet Union (1969) as well as in their correspondence that lasted till Dreiser’s death. Kennell continued to take part in Dreiser’s life and creative work in the USA, especially during the years that immediately followed their return from the USSR. The paper dwells at some length on Kennell’s biography, her role in publishing Dreiser’s work in the Soviet Union and USA, her work as an editor, critic and reviewer. Kennel had a long and varied writing career, and Dreiser helped her to start write and publish fiction. Their correspondence portrays Dreiser as a patron taking care of a young author and promoting her work. Kennell’s letters to Dreiser (1928 –1929) stored in the Manusсript Division of A.M. Gorky Institute of World Literature are published in the addendum together with the Russian translation of several Dreiser’s letters to Kennell included in Theodore Dreiser: Letters to Women. New Letters (2009).
Ellison and Dostoevsky: A Critical Reassessment of the Aesthetics and Politics
Authors: Rachman Stephen
Published: December 2021

After an overview of the well-known aspects of Ralph Ellison’s interest in and connections to the works and literary ideas of the Russian novelist Fyodor Dostoevsky, this paper reveals the hitherto unknown depths of Ellison’s research into and usage of the works and aesthetic theories of the Russian writer as he applied them to American and African American literary and social contexts. Making use of archival materials (including Ellison’s correspondence, draft of his unfinished novel Three Days Before the Shooting..., highlighting and marginalia in the books from his personal library, which includes numerous works by and about Dostoevsky), this reassessment addresses the role of the Russian classics, and in particular, of Dostoevsky, in Ellison’s intellectual formation, the role that Dostoevsky played in Ellison’s literary relationship with Richard Wright; the ways that Ellison’s interests in the blues, jazz and other folk and vernacular forms of African American culture were filtered through his analysis of nineteenth-century Russian culture; and the Dostoevskyan origins of a number of fictional scenarios that would find their way into Three Days Before the Shooting... The essay concludes with a discussion of the correspondence between Ellison and Joseph Frank, Dostoevsky’s biographer.
The Study of American Literary Naturalism: A Personal Retrospective
Authors: Pizer Donald
Published: December 2021

Donald Pizer’s personal retrospective also embraces history of American literary naturalism studies from the early1950s up to nowadays. From his earliest seminar in American literature D. Pizer was deeply drawn to the writers of the 1890s. As a student he was assured by the standard historical and critical studies of the period that naturalists had failed in this effort to apply a scientific accuracy and detachment to fictional representation, their novels were therefore both untrue and inept and naturalism was in effect a regrettable false step in the "development" of American literature. Since the 1960s being engaged in close study of the early naturalists — Norris, Crane, Garland, Dreiser — Pizer had to confront these conventional attitudes. When looked at closely as a fictional representation of beliefs about human nature and experience, the naturalistic novel appeared to be far more complex than it was believed to be. Pizer sought in a series of books and essays to describe and thus to redefine American naturalism as a whole. Rather than a mindless adoption and crude dramatization of deterministic formulas, he found in naturalistic fiction the conflict between old values and new experience, which usually resulted in a vital thematic ambivalence. It was this very ambivalence, rather than the certainties of the convinced determinist, which was the source of the fictional strength of the naturalistic novel of the period. There has been much recent interest in the American naturalist movement and its texts. It seems, as long as American writers respond deeply to the disparity between the ideal and the actual in our national experience, naturalism will remain one of the major means for the registering of this shock of discovery.
Vladimir Nabokov and Transatlantic Contexts in Saint-Petersburg University
Authors: Astvatsaturov Andrey A. , Muravieva Larisa E.
Published: December 2021

The review traces papers of the International conference V. Nabokov and Transatlantic Relations in American and European culture hosted at Saint Petersburg State University on May14–16, 2021. Scholars in various fields of humanities traced the routes of intercontinental cultural contacts of the XX-th century to construct a global context to understand Vladimir Nabokov as a paradigmatic transatlantic figure. The main direction which was discussed in papers of D. Ioffe, T. Venediktova, G. Kruzhkov, O. Panova, A. Astvatsaturov, O. Antsyferova, I. Golovacheva, A. Shvets, O. Sokolova, traditionally turned out to be American and British. The Russian cultural context viewed through the transatlantic prism was outlined by E. Penskaya, V. Feshchenko, A. Rodionova, A. Masalov, Y. Probstein, C. Bernstein and by Marjorie Perloff. The issues of transatlantic transfer in Romanesque literatures were presented in the papers of L. Muravieva, A. Petrova, V. Popova and I. Khohlova. The speakers discussed Franco-American autofiction, the images of Americans in the works of G. Apollinaire and the history of Soviet-Latin American and Portuguese-American poetic contacts, German and Scandinavian contexts viewed the in light of transatlantic problems. Discussion of Vladimir Nabokov works summed up a kind of outcome of the conference that brought together linguists (A. Kretov, Zh. Gracheva), historians of literature and culture (D. Tokarev, A. Bolshev, N. Shcherbak, A. Stepanova, N.A. Karpov ), scholars of poetics and narratology (F. Dvinyatin, V. Schmid, E. Kazartsev, D.Yu. Dovzhenko, N.I. Emelyanova).
Determinants of stock return of property and real estate companies in the developing market
Authors: Endri Endri , Amrullah Dani Fahmi , Suparmun Haryo , Mary Hilda , Sova Maya , Indrasari Arum
Published: December 2021

Macroeconomic risk factors can determine the expected return on property and real estate stocks (Khan, Khan, Ahmad, & Bashir, 2021), in addition to other factors: property prices (Das, Füss, Hanle, & Russ, 2020) and financial performance (Medyawati & Yunanto, 2017). This study aims to empirically prove the effect of interest rates (SB), exchange rates (KURS), commercial property price index (IHPK), return on assets (ROA), debt-to-equity ratio (DER), and current ratio (CR) on stock returns estimated using panel data regression model. The sample of this research is 23 companies from 63 companies in the property and real estate industry which are listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2015–2019 period. The empirical findings of this study prove that the ROA, CR, IHPK, and KURS variables have a negative effect on stock returns, while the SB variable has a positive effect. The level of corporate debt (DER) was not proven to determine stock returns. The exchange rate has the greatest influence on stock returns, and the fact does show that the Indonesian stock market is dominated by foreign investors, so that every time foreign currencies appreciate because they leave the stock exchange, the stock price immediately declines. The results of this study have implications for investors that investment decisions to buy shares of property and real estate companies must understand the changes that occur, especially macroeconomic variables and also the company’s financial performance

IATROGENIC VENTRICULAR SEPTAL DEFECT DURING RIGHT VENTRICULAR ASSIST DEVICE INSERTION IN CONGENITALLY CORRECTED TRANSPOSITION OF THE GREAT ARTERIES
Authors: Deng Mimi , Jeewa Aamir , Honjo Osami
Published: December 2021

This case report describes the management of a large iatrogenic
ventricular septal defect (VSD) created by the coring device during
systemic ventricular assist device (RVAD) insertion in a 16 year-old
patient with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries.
The VSD was closed by bovine pericardial patch and the ventriculotomy
was extended laterally to relocate the VAD sewing ring. After RVAD
implantation, patient initially remained cyanotic, potentially due to a
tiny VSD patch leak with right to left shunting. Hypoxia was
successfully corrected by rescue nitric oxide infusion and patient was
bridged to transplant after 91 days.

On topological conjugacy of some chaotic dynamical systems on the Sierpinski gasket
Authors: Aslan Nisa , Saltan Mustafa , Demir Bünyamin
Published: December 2021

The dynamical systems on the classical fractals can naturally be obtained
with the help of their iterated function systems. In the recent years,
different ways have been developed to define dynamical systems on the self
similar sets. In this paper, we give composition functions by using expanding
and folding mappings which generate the classical Sierpinski Gasket via the
escape time algorithm. These functions also indicate dynamical systems on
this fractal. We express the dynamical systems by using the code
representations of the points. Then, we investigate whether these dynamical
systems are topologically conjugate (equivalent) or not. Finally, we show
that the dynamical systems are chaotic in the sense of Devaney and then we
also compute and compare the periodic points.
On optimality for Mayer type problem governed by a discrete inclusion system with Lipschitzian set-valued mappings
Authors: Değer Özkan
Published: December 2021

Set-valued optimization which is an extension of vector optimization to
set-valued problems is a growing branch of applied mathematics. The
application of vector optimization technics to set-valued problems and the
investigation of optimality conditions has been of enormous interest in the
research of optimization problems. In this paper we have considered a Mayer
type problem governed by a discrete inclusion system with Lipschitzian
set-valued mappings. A necessary condition for K-optimal solutions of the
problem is given via local approximations which is considered the lower and
upper tangent cones of a set and the lower derivative of the set-valued
mappings.

Authors: Carmack Rodney F. , Moehrle Stephen R. , Moon Jared , Wood David A.
Published: December 2021

Although publication benchmarking studies for accounting faculty have been completed for highly ranked research institutions, there is not comparable data for the hundreds of smaller, less high profile, and less resource rich accounting programs. This study provides data for institutions that rank 200+ in the BYU accounting rankings. We take a sample of 50 institutions from this population to develop publication benchmarking for promotion to associate professor. We also provide insights on the timing of publications relative to promotion dates and compare these results to previous benchmarking studies. These results are useful for faculty at these institutions to inform their research efforts and to inform promotion and other decisions by faculty and administrators.

Vegetation on the Wawel Hill, Cracow (Poland) in the early Middle Ages based on the fragmentary pollen record. Archaeological research excavation in the basement of building No. 9
Authors: Nalepka Dorota , Kukliński Andrzej , Walanus Adam , Cywa Katarzyna
Published: December 2021

Palynological research was carried out on layers archaeologically dated to the early Middle Ages in the basement of the former Austrian hospital at Wawel. The interpretation was based on the sparse number of sporomorphs presented in the samples, not on the percentages.At the end of the first millennium, on the Wawel Hill and in its vicinity, an open landscape developed with a mosaic of plant communities, including ruderal ones, fields, pastures, and meadows, as well as bushes and forests. Sporomorphs reached the analysed area partially naturally, with pollen rain from plants growing at sites in the Wawel Castle itself and from the immediate or further surroundings of the Wawel Hill. Some sporomorphs reached the examined layers because of human activity: partly accidentally during normal life activities, and partly with material goods brought to Wawel for utility purposes. The interpretation is consistent with the results of palaeobotanical studies from other analysed sites in Wawel (Wasylikowa et al. 2006; Nalepka 2009).
Archaeobotanical results from early medieval Radom, Central Poland, with a special emphasis on the oldest finds of bog bilberry (Vaccinium uliginosum)
Authors: Skrzyński Grzegorz
Published: December 2021

The article presents one of the most interesting results of an archaeobotanical analysis of material from the early medieval settlement complex in Radom. These results provided data on useful plants and the paleoenvironment of the site. In the case of two species, it was possible to designate specific sites of their origin. The most interesting species mentioned above are Origanum vulgare and Vaccinium uliginosum. The first one could only grow at one site, slightly away from the settlement. Regarding the second species, the closest sites of occurrence of V. uliginosum can presently be found 40 km from the excavated site. This is quite a long distance from the point of view of early medieval man. It is worth emphasising that the finds of bog bilberry are the oldest remains of V. uliginosum that have been discovered at a Polish archaeological site.

Subjetividades em foco

Published: December 2021

O artigo objetiva analisar, a partir de uma perspectiva foucaultiana, as práticas jurídicas e judiciárias do direito de família e problematizar seu funcionamento como mecanismos de produção de uma mise-en-scène a partir da qual se criam subjetividades e na qual jogos discursivos estrategicamente articulados operam e disputam verdades. Para tanto, recorre-se a duas obras cinematográficas que retratam o litígio judicial de casais em torno da guarda de seus filhos e ilustram a produção de subjetividades e de performances vinculadas aos papéis materno e paterno. Essas obras ilustram como a vigilância do aparato jurisdicional sobre as famílias pode funcionar como um instrumento de normalização de comportamentos e de reforço para a representação performática de papeis no campo social (homem/mulher, masculino/feminino, mãe/pai). Esse aporte crítico traz questionamentos e demanda reflexão em torno dos discursos jurídicos universalistas de proteção à pessoa humana, do melhor interesse da criança, de privatização do direito de família e do valor jurídico do afeto.

QUALITY OF THE SECONDARY SCHOOL EDUCATIONAL ENVIRONMENT: A COMPARATIVE STUDY USING THE SACERS RATING SCALE
Authors: Ivanova Elena Vladimirovna , Vinogradova Irina Anatolyevna , Nesterova Oksana Valeryevna
Published: December 2021

The quality of education is the main priority in most states’ policy, and Russia is no exception. Russia pays much attention to the accessibility of quality education for all citizens regardless of their place of residence and social status. The quality of education is considered a complex characteristic of educational activity and students’ training. We will consider it within the framework of this article in the context of the assessment and development of the school educational environment. The quality of the educational environment is provided by the following factors: content components relating to the interaction between participants of an educational relationship; organization of the educational process; conditions for professional staff growth and comfortable environment for exceptional children.
The study using the SACERS rating scale revealed that schools in different districts of the metropolitan area differ in terms of providing students with equal conditions in their educational environment. The most significant differences were revealed in the following components of the educational environment: the creation of organizational conditions for extracurricular activities and additional education; interior solutions to ensure privacy, the comfort of communication, and motor activity; conditions for the learning and development of students with special educational needs. The study showed that schools with a higher quality index of the educational environment have quite homogeneous educational conditions. They provide relatively equal access to quality education compared to a group of structural units with a lower quality index. The differences in the compared educational organizations specifying the heterogeneity of educational conditions are related to characteristics such as the variability or uniformity in the use of resources, resource availability or its active use, whether it is a systematic or fragmented working process, and the focus on control norms or development.
CLT beam analysis using classical elastic theory of layered beams
Authors: Heinisuo Markku , Pajunen Sami
Published: December 2021

The classical elastic theory of layered beams is used for the analysis of cross laminated timber (CLT) beams. A brief introduction of the theory is given and followed by examples. The theory of layered beams offers a widely studied, well established method for the analysis the CLT beams including displacements and stresses of each layer of the beam. It is shown that the theoretical basis of the widely used Shear Analogy is the same as the theoretical basis of the theory of layered beams. The results are compared to test results and to results of the finite element calculations. It is seen that the deflections and strains are in 10 % fractals in mean in the considered cases. The theory of layered beams seems to be suitable method in the analysis of the CLT beams at the elastic phase.

Without exception to Jakarta’s 2017 Gubernatorial Election that received an international spotlight because the roar is so massive in the universe of cyberspace. This qualitative descriptive study examined the pattern of campaign movements as a political discourse conducted by the public in supporters community account as a form of public participation in the politics of free-active democracy. It aimed to map out the pattern of discourse movements arising from the supporter community accounts of one of the candidate through the perspective of the discourse comparison offered by Sawirman (2014). The findings show that there are three supporting accounts of candidates which posited as primary, secondary and tertiary discourse. For the configuration of the discourse, gradable adjectives are used as a linguistic strategy to weaken and to dispel sympathy for opposing factions. It is based on the spirit that speakers are superior to their rivals. In general, the pattern of discourse movements identified is synergistic and mutual in order to demonstrate the superiority of their group by degrading the opposing side.

Island Archaeology: In Search of a New Horizon
Authors: Boomert Arie , J. Bright Alistair
Published: December 2021

This paper charts the academic development of “island archaeology” from its roots in Darwinist and anthropological island studies through island biogeography to processual and post-processual archaeology. It is argued that the rarely made explicit yet fundamental premise of island archaeology that insular human societies show intrinsic characteristics essentially dissimilar from those on mainlands is false. The persistence of this misconception is due in part to the emphasis on islands as ideal units of analysis. It is suggested that island societies should be studied at the level of the archipelago and/or mainland coastal setting within their maritime cultural framework, ultimately leading up to an archaeology of maritime identity.

Doping of graphene nanoribbons with various chemical elements leads to a change in their band structure, which significantly expands the range of applications of these objects in modern electronic devices. In this work, the authors investigate graphene nanoribbons of the «armchair» and «zigzag» types with different concentrations of pyrrole-like nitrogen at the edges. The SCC-DFTB method was used to establish the most energetically favorable configurations of pyrrole-like nitrogen at each edge of graphene nanoribbons. The relationship between the energy gaps of graphene nanoribbons and the content of the considered functional nitrogen-containing groups in them was determined. Calculations have shown that, by incorporating into the atomic lattice, pyrrole-like nitrogen at the «zigzag» edge transfers a greater amount of charge to nearby carbon atoms, which makes such nanoribbons more chemically active in comparison with «armchair» type nanoribbons. Nitrogen doped «zigzag» graphene nanoribbons may be a promising chemoresistive element of nanosensors; however, these conclusions require further calculations.

Today, both macromodels and transistor-level models of semiconductor integrated circuits are available. However, most models don’t take into account the influence of destabilizing effects. Thus, the tasks of developing new models and fitting the parameters of existing ones are very relevant. In this work, the authors introduced an assumption about the existence of a correlation relationship between all the parameters of integrated circuits’ transistor-level models and offered a way to fit these parameters. The experience of fitting the model’s parameters of the integrated circuit 1564LE1 EP was presented. To simplify this task, all parameters were altered by the same relative deviation. To check the assumption made, the authors carried out full-scale experiment, in which the frequency of the self-oscillation of the ring oscillator based on the 1564LE1 EP was measured in the temperature range. The simulation of the ring oscillator has been made using a SPICE-simulator. The dependences of the self-oscillation frequency on temperature, obtained as a result of simulation and as a result of experiment, were compared before and after fitting the parameters of the integrated circuit model. Also, the waveforms of the ring oscillator based on the original and fitted model were compared. The analysis of the obtained dependences of the frequency of oscillations, the signal shape before and after the model fitting, the link to the text of the fitted model has been provided. The results obtained show the possibility of using the introduced assumption to fit the parameters of the transistor-level integrated circuit model.

Unsanctioned intrusion of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) on the territory of the guarded object is primarily detected by specialized radio surveillance systems. The results obtained by radio surveillance systems are used for aiming of UAV visual identification and radio jamming systems. In this work, the problems of UAV detection and tracking of the target trajectory are considered. The known tracking filter systems for radio surveillance application were analyzed and a specialized matrix tracking filter system was proposed, which uses in its algorithm a dynamically changing energy potential of the radio surveillance system. The developed tracking filter system efficiency is evaluated using methods of matrix calculation, mathematical modeling, and probability theory. It has been established that the developed tracking filter system lets the radio surveillance equipment most effectively initiate trajectories of UAV, set its movement window, consider radio surveillance equipment characteristics, and approximate the trajectory of UAV at times of missed detections connected to radar cross-section fluctuations of moving targets. A high efficiency of the developed system has been achieved by decreasing the inaccuracy of the target position prediction two times in comparison with the known tracking filter systems. The obtained results allow easy scaling of the developed tracking filter system for its application as a part of any radio surveillance system.

Published: December 2021

Energy spectrum of gas particles in plasma is broad, ranging from fractions to 10s of electron volts. Proportion of particles with required energetic parameters, participating in cubic carbon c-C synthesis, is small. External energy deposition can transfer an inert carbon atom to active state and change its electronic configuration. Binding energy of c-C atom depends on energy sources interaction. In this work, the calculations found the binding energy value that was compared with value of energy of the bond between the carbon atoms in ethane. The advisability of external source, activated carbon atoms generator, is marked. It has been established that by adding accelerated carbon atoms with energy of 9,687 eV into reactor it is possible to increase productivity of films, coatings and bulk crystals growth.
