Le 10 août 1792 au cinéma. Reprises et métamorphoses du sens de l’événement
Authors: Benhamou Jean-François
Published: December 2023

Cet article interroge la manière dont quatre films du XXe siècle mettent en scène la journée du 10 août 1792 à la fois en lien avec le présent de l’histoire des cinéastes réalisateurs et en lien avec une tradition de représentations aux connotations politiques contrastées. La Marseillaise de Jean Renoir (1938) dans le contexte du Front populaire, Les Années Lumières de Robert Enrico (1989) lors du Bicentenaire et du discrédit de l’idée de révolution, L’Anglaise et le Duc d’Éric Rohmer (2001) dans le contexte du néolibéralisme triomphant et de la « fin de l’histoire », et enfin Un peuple et son Roi de Pierre Schoeller (2018) qui conclut une décennie de résistances au néolibéralisme. Des tableaux, des travaux d’historien ou des récits élaborés par des témoins de l’événement nourrissent les trames cinématographiques. Il y a ainsi à instruire un carambolage spéculaire des temps, un rapport passé-présent ordinaire, mais aussi l’incrustation au sein du présent du film des rapports passé-présent du passé. Le carambolage des temps est alors fait de résurgences et de réinterprétations, de chevauchements et de télescopages.
Des révoltes communales à l’utopie communaliste
Authors: Rambeau Frédéric
Published: December 2023

Les soulèvements contre le joug fiscal, qui constituent le point de départ des grandes guerres paysannes du XVIe et du XVIIe siècle, ont été à l’origine d’une autre ligne de la révolte que celle qui s’imposera avec l’avènement du capitalisme industriel. La commune en est à la fois l’horizon et la base instituante : une tactique et une forme de vie. Elle a constitué pendant plus de trois siècles le mode de subjectivation des soulèvements populaires. Aujourd’hui, l’élargissement continu de la production par la circulation, mais aussi la non-coïncidence de la source de l’exploitation, de la production de plus-value et du point de départ du processus révolutionnaire, ont fait rentrer à nouveau dans la figurabilité du présent cette autre tradition de la révolte. Loin d’être une présence révolue, le passé se dévoile en tant que répétition des potentialités autonomes qu’il porte en lui. Réciproquement, l’à présent du soulèvement n’obéit pas à la loi d’une succession linéaire, il surgit dans la reprise des formes anciennes, le réveil d’un passé enfoui.
Conscience historique et ethnographie de l’histoire (traduction)
Authors: Stewart Charles
Published: December 2023

Sur les traces de la dépossession et de l’espoir persistant de la communauté de Naxos en Grèce, Charles Stewart analyse des récits de rêves entre les années 1830 et 1930. Dans ce texte tiré de Dreaming and Historical Consciousness in Island Greece (University of Chicago Press, 2017), il présente les outils qu’il a développés au fil d’un cheminement entre les disciplines, pour analyser comment s’inscrivaient les rêves dans le temps. Les travaux de psychanalystes postérieurs à Freud, et en particulier ceux de Ludwig Binswanger, l’aident à envisager les rêves comme des expériences temporelles imaginaires, tendues vers le futur, qui permettent aux rêveurs d’envisager de nouvelles possibilités d’être. Les rêves révèlent une conscience historique singulière et des valeurs communautaires que l’auteur éclaire à l’aide de l’histoire économique et culturelle.
« C’était pendant l’horreur d’une profonde nuit… »
Authors: Tamas Jennifer
Published: December 2023

Cet article interroge la façon dont la tragédie racinienne travaille l’injonction à l’oubli (de l’Édit de Nantes au « refoulement » de la Fronde). Mettant en scène des personnages qui nous invitent à entrer dans leur mémoire, Racine juxtapose plusieurs temporalités qu’il coud ensemble (qu’elles soient traumatiques, bibliques, mythiques, actuelles). Le rapport aux fantômes, aux ombres tout comme au veuvage permet d’interroger le régime du souvenir. Même les personnages d’enfants semblent moins incarner le futur que la résurrection d’un passé (la lignée de David avec Joas, la splendeur de Troie avec Astyanax) que d’autres veulent abolir (tels Athalie et Pyrrhus baignés de crimes). La tragédie racinienne ouvre une brèche temporelle qui semble symptomatique de ce carambolage des temps. Elle produit aussi un espace mémoriel qui nous parle encore aujourd’hui et sur lequel nous pouvons encore projeter nos propres doutes comme nos hantises.
„Krieg ist ein Naturgesetz“ – Horváths Obsession mit dem Krieg
Authors: Streitler-Kastberger Nicole
Published: December 2023

Horváths literarisches Werk ist durchzogen von der Reflexion über den Krieg. In seinen berühmten Volksstücken Italienische Nacht, Geschichten aus dem Wiener Wald (beide 1931) und Kasimir und Karoline (1932) wird nicht nur der Kampf der Geschlechter inszeniert, sondern auch ein Krisen- und Kriegs-Narrativ verhandelt.Horváth hat aber auch dezidiert gegen den Krieg geschrieben. Besonders deutlich setzt er sich mit dem Thema in dem Essay Was soll ein Schriftsteller heutzutag schreiben? (etwa 1936), aber auch in den Entwürfen zum Roman Adieu, Europa! (1938) auseinander. Der Autor kommt dabei zu dem Schluss, dass man nicht mit „Hohn“ schreiben soll, sondern mit „Gott im Hintergrunde“ und mit „Liebe“, wie er dies in Jugend ohne Gott (1937) zuwege gebracht hat.Auch der Pazifismus als Gegenkonzept zum Krieg ist in Horváths Werk rekurrent, besonders deutlich im frühen Roman Der ewige Spießer (1930) und in den beiden späten Romanen Jugend ohne Gott (1937) und Ein Kind unserer Zeit (1938), die aufgrund ihrer „pazifistischen Tendenz“ auf die Verbotslisten der Nationalsozialisten kamen. Horváth plädiert in beiden Texten für den Individualismus und gegen den Kollektivismus, symptomatisch dafür ist die Rede vom „Einzelnen“, der kein „Dreck“ ist, die vor allem den letzten Roman durchzieht.
Vor dem Gesetz: Zur Dialektik des Grenzregimes in Ödön von HorváthsHin und Her. Posse in zwei Teilen
Authors: Chamayou-Kuhn Cécile
Published: December 2023

Die Figur des Ausgewiesenen, des Ausgeschlossenen – kurzum: des Ausländers – ist in Ödön von HorváthsHin und Her. Posse in zwei Teilen(1933) ständig mit einem dialektischen Grenzregime konfrontiert: Dieser Mann, Havlicek, muss das Land verlassen, in dem er seit langem lebte. Allerdings bleibt ihm der Eintritt in die ursprüngliche Heimat rechtlich versagt. Das bedeutet einerseits, dass die Grenze für ihn Ausschluss zur Folge hat. Andererseits begründen die Bürger*innen grundsätzlich ihre Existenz – und ihre Staatsbürgerschaft – auf der Grundlage von Grenzverhältnissen.In diesem Beitrag wird Horváths dramatisches Schreiben aus der Perspektive der eben genannten Dialektik untersucht. Dabei wird der Fokus auf besondere Motive – so etwa die dichotomische Weltauffassung und Raumordnung, die Gesetzeskraft – gerichtet. Darüber hinaus werden ästhetische Mittel und Figurationen analysiert, die Horváth in dieser Posse einsetzt, um die bestehende Ordnung kritisch, ja dekonstruktivistisch in den Blick zu nehmen.
Frayed Memories, Re-imagined Belongings. Southeast Asian Post-refugee Generations in France
Authors: Le Bail Hélène , Um Khatharya
Published: December 2023

The communist takeover in 1975 and post-war developments in Cambodia, Vietnam and Laos catalyzed a massive exodus of refugees, some 125,000 of whom were resettled in France. Despite the growth, both in size and in complexity, of the Southeast Asian communities in France over the last five decades, little is known about these populations, and even less about the post-refugee generations, their identities, and politics, and especially their relationship to their parent’s traumatic history of migration. The invisibility of Asians in France has enabled myths and assumptions about these communities, both positive and negative, to persist unchallenged. This article aims to shed light on the post-refugee generations of Southeast Asians in France. Drawing insights from academics, researchers, journalists, filmmakers, writers, community organizers, and advocates, it engages some of the critical questions that inform the identity and politics of the Southeast Asian post-refugee generations in France, centering on questions of historical traumas and identity construction, representation, belonging, and activism. It advances the notion of refugee communities as sites of active knowledge production, and foregrounds refugee agency by giving voice to refugees and their descendants. In so doing, it aims not only to highlight experiences, concerns, and perspectives that have been obscured or marginalized but also to showcase the agency, resistance, and reclaim that are manifested in different ways, forms, and contexts in the individual and collective responses of Southeast Asians to the challenges that confront them in France.
„Je est un autre“
Authors: Prédhumeau Alfred
Published: December 2023

La France et les Français jouent un rôle important dans la biographie de Döblin, comme en témoigne notamment son adoption de la nationalité française. Cette contribution montrera, à l’aide de quelques œuvres de la période d’exil, comment l’auteur a littérarisé sa relation à l’altérité française. La lecture se concentrera sur les passages correspondants de la Babylonische Wandrung, de la Schicksalsreise et de November 1918. Par rapport aux textes précédents, ceux publiés entre 1917 et 1921, nous pouvons constater que Döblin a opéré un lent changement de paradigme : son regard, dorénavant français, sur l’Allemagne était désormais marqué par des sentiments d’altérité ; lui-même était devenu un Autre.
Nocturnal futures : a necessary reflection in times of uncertainty
Authors: Nofre Jordi , Garcia-Ruiz Manuel , Mercado Alejandro
Published: December 2023

This text serves as an epilogue of the special issue entitled Nocturnal Cities : Past, Present, and Future. The first part of the text below presents a series of research topics that are central to the interdisciplinary area of Night Studies, and whose objects of research and reflection can be referred to as ‘nocturnal urban futures’. The second half denounces the absence of ‘the night’ in the design of the so-called ‘15-minute city’, which is the main paradigm of ongoing urban development in many cities worldwide (especially from the Global North). The final section sheds light on the urgent community, institutional, industry and academic need for debating and discussing the role that the ‘nocturnal city’ should have in the construction of climate-neutral cities in the long-term future.
Factoring Interacting Stress Mechanisms in Design for Reliability of Extreme Environment Power Modules
Authors: Huitink David , Vinson Whit , Ruby Collin , Al Razi Imam , Agogo-Mawuli David , Mantooth Alan , Peng Yarui
Published: December 2023

As power densification demands are placing electronic

packages under greater reliability risk, the consequences of

complementary or interacting stresses in producing failure are

becoming increasingly significant. As such, it is important that

reliability methods and package designs consider how multiplestress

interactions may impact product life. Here, the coordination

between a novel accelerated testing method and electronic

design automation efforts has demonstrated a successful optimization

approach for a wire-bonded 2D module layout combining

failure mechanisms of electromigration and mechanical stressing.

Utilizing custom, physics-of-failure approaches in accelerated

testing, interactions can be observed in failure acceleration, which

then can be incorporated into design for reliability (DfR) optimization

tools. The PowerSynth 2 platform has been utilized as a

DfR tool to perform a rapid reliability evaluation incorporating

multistress scenarios. This work demonstrates the value added to

reliability evaluation techniques when accounting for interacting

failure mechanisms and suggests that next-generation power

devices consider these effects in lifetime estimation.

Photoreceptor cell degeneration leads to blindness, for which there is currently no effective treatment. Our previous studies have shown that Lycium barbarum (L. barbarum) polysaccharide (LBP) protects degenerated photoreceptors in rd1, a transgenic mouse model of retinitis pigmentosa. L. barbarum glycopeptide (LbGP) is an immunoreactive glycoprotein extracted from LBP. In this study, we investigated the potential protective effect of LbGP on a chemically induced photoreceptor-degenerative mouse model. Wild-type mice received the following: oral administration of LbGP as a protective pre-treatment on days 1–7; intraperitoneal administration of 40 mg/kg N-methyl-N-nitrosourea to induce photoreceptor injury on day 7; and continuation of orally administered LbGP on days 8–14. Treatment with LbGP increased photoreceptor survival and improved the structure of photoreceptors, retinal photoresponse, and visual behaviors of mice with photoreceptor degeneration. LbGP was also found to partially inhibit the activation of microglia in N-methyl-N-nitrosourea-injured retinas and significantly decreased the expression of two pro-inflammatory cytokines. In conclusion, LbGP effectively slowed the rate of photoreceptor degeneration in N-methyl-N-nitrosourea-injured mice, possibly through an anti-inflammatory mechanism, and has potential as a candidate drug for the clinical treatment of photoreceptor degeneration.
The role of immune modulatory CD163+ macrophages and FOXP3+ T regulatory lymphocytes in ulcerative colitis
Authors: Farid Laila M , Ibrahim Riham A , Shash Lobna S , Abd Raboh Nermine M , Abouelkhair Mariam B
Published: December 2023

Background

Recently, research work was intensified to explore the role of the immune microenvironment in different diseases. The inflammatory Bowel Disease- Distribution, Chronicity, Activity score (IBD-DCA) is now accepted as a practical reproducible tool for assessment of the histologic inflammatory burden and histologic mucosal healing in ulcerative colitis (UC) endoscopic biopsies. The particular contribution of immune modulatory CD 163+ macrophages and FOXP3+T regulatory lymphocytes (T-regs), and their implication in UC pathogenesis and course are still not clearly elaborated. Correlation between these attributes and the histologic indices would offer valuable insights that could help tailor the management plan on a personalized medicine protocols level, in addition to paving roads to new therapeutic target modalities.

Aim of the study

Evaluate the role of immune modulatory CD163+ macrophages and FOXP3+ T regulatory lymphocytes in ulcerative colitis and correlate their immunohistochemical expression with the pathological parameters of Inflammatory Bowel Disease- Distribution, Chronicity, Activity score (IBD-DCA score).

Materials and methods

Paraffin-embedded tissue sections from 60 cases of endoscopic colonic biopsies diagnosed as ulcerative colitis were immunohistochemically studied for CD163 and FOXP3 expression and graded semi-quantitively. Furthermore, histopathological features were evaluated according to IBD-DCA score and correlated with CD163 and FOXP3 expression for statistical analysis.

Results

CD163+ macrophages and FOXP3+ T-regs were demonstrated in 100% (60/60) and 78% (47/60) respectively of the lamina propria of ulcerative colitis cases. Significant correlation with activity (A) parameter of DCA-score and architectural distortion of detailed chronicity parameter for both markers was detected. Additionally, CD163 immuno-expression showed significant correlation with detailed activity parameters while FOXP3 presented a significant correlation with the chronicity parameter of DCA score.

Conclusion

The immune modulatory CD 163+ macrophages and FOXP3+T-regs represent key players in mucosal tissue inflammation, disease activity and chronicity in UC. This could offer new therapeutic modalities targeting the players of the immune microenvironment that should be deeply investigated in future studies.
Relationship between GCKR gene rs780094 polymorphism and type 2 diabetes with albuminuria
Authors: Liu Yi-Ying , Wan Qin
Published: December 2023

BACKGROUND

Diabetic kidney disease is one of the common complications of type 2 diabetes (T2D). There are no typical symptoms in the early stage, and the disease will progress to moderate and late stage when albuminuria reaches a high level. Treatment is difficult and the prognosis is poor. At present, the pathogenesis of diabetic kidney disease is still unclear, and it is believed that it is associated with genetic and environmental factors.

AIM

To explore the relationship between the glucokinase regulatory protein (GCKR ) gene rs780094 polymorphism and T2D with albuminuria.

METHODS

We selected 252 patients (126 males and 126 females) with T2D admitted to our hospital from January 2020 to October 2020, and 66 healthy people (44 females and 22 males). According to the urinary albumin/creatinine ratio, the subjects were divided into group I (control), group II (T2D with normoalbuminuria), group III (T2D with microalbuminuria), and group IV (T2D with macroalbuminuria). Additionly, the subjects were divided into group M (normal group) or group N (albuminuria group) according to whether they developed albuminuria. We detected the GCKR gene rs780094 polymorphism (C/T) of all subjects, and measured the correlation between GCKR gene rs780094 polymorphism (C/T) and T2D with albuminuria.

RESULTS

Gene distribution and genotype distribution among groups I-IV accorded with the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Genotype frequency was significantly different among the four groups (P = 0.048, χ 2 = 7.906). T allele frequency in groups II, III, and IV was significantly higher than that in group I. Logistic regression analysis of the risk factors for T2D with albuminuria showed that the CT + TT genotype (odds ratio = 1.710, 95% confidence interval: 1.172-2.493) was a risk factor.

CONCLUSION

CT + TT genotype is a risk factor for T2D with albuminuria. In the future, we can assess the risk of individuals carrying susceptible genes to delay the onset of T2D.

Media, Security Challenges and the Future of Nigeria: A Theoretical Overview
Authors: Nwankwo Ugochukwu , Nwanchor Elem , Chike Onwe , Orji-Egwu Obiageri
Published: December 2023

Security issues in Nigeria have of recent attracted global attention. The country now faces security threats from insurgent groups and bandits including the unknown gunmen that operate in broad day light almost unhindered. These have resulted to massive loss of lives and properties with devastating effects on the economy of the country and freedom of movement. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the challenges posed by the unfolding threats from these enemies of the nation building and how the mass media in Nigeria could help in saving the country from this mess. The study employed literature review method and anchored on the Democratic Peace Theory. The review reveals that Nigerians depend so much on mass media for accurate and timely information about the happenings in the society;  the traditional roles of the mass media in any society which are to inform, educate and entertain are so crucial that Nigeria can hardly progress meaningfully without these channels of mass communication; that although the mass media are faced with a lot of challenges in the fight against insecurity in Nigeria, they have significant influence in fighting the menace; the media have not been fully utilised in addressing the security challenges in Nigeria.  Based on the findings, the study recommends among others that the government should adopt dialogue and communication based approach in addressing security problems facing the country instead of relying solely on the use of force and stiff measures; Journalists in the media industry should utilise the mass media as agents of social change, and in spite of all odds redouble their efforts in setting agenda for public discussion on the best ways to salvage the country from the quagmire of insecurity;  government officials and other relevant authorities should periodically organise media security summit for members of the public to contribute their quota on how to achieve attitudinal change and secure the country from collapse, security agents should work with intelligent information to avoid being victims of insecurity.
Political Conflict and Electoral Violence in Nigeria: Implications on National Security
Authors: Lambe Oyewole , Mubarak Sulaiman
Published: December 2023

The Electoral contest in many developing democracies in Africa including, Nigeria, are faced with the challenges of conducting free, fair, credible and violence-free elections. Political violence has become a stain on our democracy. The paper therefore assessed the impact of electoral violence on national security in Nigeria. The paper adopted the descriptive analytical approach. The data collected were classified, analyzed and organized chronologically in a manner that ensured effective interrogation and presentation of the interests driving the debate on the subject matter to ensure adequate comprehension. The frustration aggression theory was used to explain the cause of electoral violence in Nigeria. The study found out that Political violence is now a stain in our democracy that is now seen as a political structure and strategy for employment during election and the use of weapons during election have an after effect on the national security. Consequently, some policy recommendations were made. The political umpire has to take conscious and strategic actions against political violence, due to the fact that action and inaction of the government plays a major role in either stopping or continuing the menace. Appropriate security network and intelligence should be organized to monitor electoral activities to mitigate incidences of violence. The Independent National Electoral Commission should conduct transparent and credible elections while the political parties and candidates should ensure strict compliance with electoral regulations

The broad objective of the paper is to examine the impact of religion on the Land Dispute Resolution between Akataka-Ekpa-Omaka and Omege-Echara, Ikwo. The paper adopted survey and documentary methods in gathering data. The descriptive analytical technique tools such as tables, simple percentages, histograms, charts and content analysis data were used for data analysis. The theoretical framework used is human needs theory. The paper revealed that there is incompatibility of religious fanatics between traditional religion practice of the area and Christians belief which hinders the efforts to resolve the land dispute. The paper recommended setting up a special committee to harmonize the relationship between the two major religions as gateway to peace building in the area. There is also need to legislates at local level and specify various punishments for offenders of religious bigotry to encourage peace and harmony in the area.

Authors: Ogunyemi AO , Chukwu FN , Oluwole EO , Olatona FA , Otokpa E , Ofonakara U
Published: December 2023

Background: Child labour is a social phenomenon of global concern with serious consequences for child development, education and well-being. This study compared the pattern, attitude and child labour practices in urban and rural areas of Lagos State.Methods: This was a descriptive comparative cross-sectional study among mothers of children ages 5 to 17 years. A multistage sampling technique was used to recruit 400 participants. The data was collected using a pre-tested, standardized questionnaire on child labour for household surveys. The data was analysed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences IBM (SPSS) version 20 software and the level of statistical significance was set at p<0.05.Results: Urban mothers were older (43.8± 1.8 years) compared to rural mothers (41.9± 12.7 years), and a higher percentage of urban mothers (52.5%) had secondary education in contrast to rural mothers (25.5%). Child labour was more prevalent among children aged 5 to 10 years in rural areas (55.5%) compared to urban areas (44.5%). Within the past year, 33.8% of urban children and 66.2% of rural children were involved in labour and hawking was the most prevalent work in 31.0% and 69.0% of urban and rural children. The majority of rural child labourers (68.4%) and 31.6% of urban child labourers worked 8 to 10 hours daily, with a statistically significant difference (p <0.001), primarily due to family support.Conclusion: There is a need for increased and continuous awareness campaigns aimed at educating communities, parents, and children about the detrimental effects of child labour on their overall well-being.
The quarantine hotel experience: travel diaries of compulsory confinement
Authors: Gkoumas Aristeidis , Kiss Robert , Heeren Kimberly
Published: December 2023

During the summer of 2021, 14 days of quarantine at designated hotels was a mandatory Covid-19 restriction for all travellers entering Taiwan. This study employs the duo-ethnographic method to investigate the implications of quarantine hotel confinement on the emotional, physiological and psychological state of individuals. The emic approach of autoethnography provides a reflexive and evocative source for describing the feelings, emotions, perceptions and challenges during compulsory isolation in designated lodgings. Goffman’s (1961) typology for total institutions served as the conceptual tool to examine the characteristics of the social arrangement in quarantine hotels. The empirical data revealed the profound consequences of isolation. This paper outlines the detrimental implications of role dispossession, deprivation of personal freedom, programming and controlling, and disruption of key spheres of life, along with the imposition of acceptable behaviours regarding the mental health and emotional state of guests during confinement.

Published: December 2023

This research paper investigates two critical aspects of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS): Blind Spot Detection (BSD) and Drowsiness Detection (DD). Our primary objective is to assess these ADAS features, emphasizing their efficacy, advantages, and constraints. SD relies on sensors and cameras to monitor blind spots, alerting drivers to potential lane change risks. DD employs sensors and algorithms to detect signs of driver drowsiness or fatigue, issuing timely warnings. This study analyzes technological innovations in BSD and DD, examining their integration into vehicles and their potential to mitigate accidents caused by blind spots and drowsy driving. We also explore human factors, including user acceptance and usability concerns. Additionally, we assess the real-world impact of BSD and DD on road safety, utilizing data from studies and accident reports to quantify their effectiveness. This research contributes to discussions on ADAS technologies, emphasizing their role in enhancing road safety. We aim to encourage further development and integration of these systems into the automotive industry, ultimately leading to safer transportation for all.
Análisis de la migración interna en México y su relación con la convergencia económica por regiones
Authors: Gómez Torres José Daniel , Vázquez Guzmán David , Ramos Soto Ana Luz
Published: December 2023

La migración es un fenómeno asociado a la búsqueda de una mejor calidad de vida. Esta genera presiones sobre sus regiones de destino, pero puede beneficiar a sus regiones de origen debido a la conexión que preservan con ellas los migrantes. En esta investigación se estudiaron las causas de la migración interna de México entre 1980 y 2020, y se revisó si sus efectos contribuyeron en alguna forma a la convergencia económica, es decir, a un mismo grado de desarrollo económico entre las diferentes regiones del país. Se encontró evidencia de que la migración tiende a obedecer factores económicos en la mayoría de las regiones, y que la convergencia económica en el país es influenciada ligeramente por la migración, pero también se encontró que pudieran existir otros factores que tienen un mayor efecto sobre este proceso, y se recomienda ser estos estudiados de manera posterior.
Demythologization of the Mythic Representation of Woman: Critical Reimagining of the Archaic Stories
Authors: UĞUREL ÖZDEMİR Ebru
Published: December 2023

Ancient Greek myths, as the architect of the patriarchal ideology, serve as a panorama of the reality, which women in all ages around the world face and are forced to experience. Based on the fossilized ideas of the archaic philosophy, the mythological narratives are at the center of a canon which reveals, internalizes and legitimates the binary oppositions between the sexes. Although myths are set in the past and thus seem to be bygone, the events and characters still mirror the modern age: nothing seems to have changed concerning the negative perception of womanhood. This essay does echo the feminist writer Cixous’s challenge to awaken all women to discover their own power by not yielding to man-made stories but writing their own realities. In this direction in this study, the classical myths are reimagined from postfeminist perspective with the purpose of subverting the dynamics of patriarchy and phallocentrism.

Towards Conceptualization Of A Prototype For Quantum Database: A Complete Ecosystem
Authors: Chakraborty Sayantan
Published: December 2023

This study proposes a conceptualization of a prototype And a possibility to converge classical database and fully quantum database. This study mostly identifies the gap between this classical and quantum database and proposes a prototype that can be implemented in future products. It is a way that can be used in future industrial product development on hybrid quantum computers. The existing concept used to consider oracle as a black box in this study opens up the possibility for the quantum industry to develop the QASAM module so that we can create a fully quantum database instead of using a classical database as BlackBox.As the Toffoli gate is basically an effective NAND gate it is possible to run any algorithm theoretically in quantum computers. So we will propose a logical design for memory management for the quantum database, security enhancement model, Quantum Recovery Manager & automatic storage management model, and more for the quantum database which will ensure the quantum advantages. In this study, we will also explain the Quantum Vector Database as well as the possibility of improvement in duality quantum computing. It opens up a new scope, possibilities, and research areas in a new approach for quantum databases and duality quantum computing.

At this time the assessment used in the independent curriculum is by applying portfolio assessment which is carried out at the end of the delivery of material, this portfolio assessment is proof that students have understood the learning material that has been conveyed. Portfolio Assessment is an assessment criterion in the form of practical results or learning outcomes that are given to students and related to the learning material that the teacher has conveyed in the form of collections of several questions. The sets of questions were self-made by the subject teachers who had taken them during the learning process and then the results of the portfolio assessment were stored in plastic folders in a systematic and coherent manner so that they were arranged according to the lesson plan given. This assessment is considered as an alternative assessment and is much more valid than the standard assessment. Portfolio assessment is not only used for assessment but also for research on student learning outcomes in terms of the skills and attitudes of students. The aspects measured in the portfolio assessment consist of three aspects, namely aspects of psychological development including cognitive, affective and psychomotor development. The function of portfolio assessment is to find out the level of understanding of the material students have been given, as a tool to find out the progress of students, to find out the learning difficulties of students in the learning process, and for the benefit of improving and perfecting teaching and learning activities (KMB). According to some researchers, this portfolio assessment is also a report to the parents of students so that they can find out about the progress of students while at school. From the results of observations and interviews that we have conducted at SD NEGERI 1 JATI CITY PROBOLINGGO, it can be concluded that portfolio assessment has been implemented in only a few classes, namely grade 1 and grade 4.
