Published: December 2021

Abstract:. The purpose of this study is to test 1) The existence of learning outcomes of Light Vehicle Engine Maintenance (PMKR) between students who get the Problem Based Learning (PBL) learning model and learning motivation on sent learning outcomes with conventional learning models, 2) There is an interaction between the PBL learning model and learning motivation on learning outcomes in PMKR lessons. 3) There are differences in the PMKR learning outcomes of students who have high learning motivation who receive the PBL learning model treatment. 4) There are differences in learning outcomes of light vehicle engine maintenance students who have low learning motivation who get the PBL learning model. This study used an experimental method with a 2 x 2 factorial design. The population was 80 students, the sample to be used was 66 students taken using smple random sampling technique. Then from the 66 students into 2 groups where Group 1 gathered 33 students into the Experiment Class which was taught with the PBL learning model and Group 2 returned 33 students from the Control class who were taught by the conventional model. The results showed that there were differences in learning outcomes between students who received treatment Problem Based Learning learning model and students who received conventional learning model treatment. There is an interaction between the learning model and learning motivation. Students who have learning motivation are more suited to the PBL model, while students who have low learning motivation are more suited to using the conventional model.

Published: December 2021

This study aims to search for the necessary competencies to choose academic leaders in the Sultanate of
Oman in light of the vision of the 2040 education strategy. To achieve this aim, a qualitative approach is used,
by preparing an interview card that includes five main questions. The sample of the interview consists of nine
individuals who occupy leadership positions at the university and whose work is related to the educational field.
The sample consists of (the dean of the faculty and his assistants, a sample of department heads, the dean of
admission and registration, directors of centres, and the head of the Quality and Accreditation Unit). The data
collection period took about one month. The qualitative method is used to analyse the responses of the
corresponding sample using the coding system NVivo according to the study fields.
The results of the study show that one of the most important competencies mentioned in the responses is
the following competencies: personal competencies, professional competencies, communicational
competencies, planning competencies, adequacy of practices, and technological competencies, in addition to the
importance of academic leaders possessing the cognitive ability in two main dimensions (academic
specialization and professional specialization). Furthermore, there is the importance of having a cultural horizon
that helps them deal with various groups of society. As for the factors that influence the academic leader's
success and make him distinguished, these are his ability to work with others, to take responsibility, to have the
drive for accomplishments, to have the ability to negotiate and conclude deals, and to have the ability to deal
with crises or risks. Based on the results of the study, several recommendations and proposals are developed.
Persuasion prosody in prosecutor’s speech: Ukrainian and english
Authors: Akkurt Vladyslava , Korolova Tetiana , Popova Oleksandra
Published: December 2021

This paper presents the research of prosodic means conveying the persuasion modality in a prosecutor’s speech in court. The material under study consists of English and Ukrainian speeches of the prosecutors (the total duration time is 16 hours). The results of the experimental material examination demonstrate common and specific characteristics of prosody components (melody, loudness, tempo, timber and sentence stress) in English and Ukrainian. Pragmatics of prosody semantics and correlation between its parameters have been proved. It has been stated that in both English and Ukrainian an utterance becomes emphatic due to the prosodic means of persuasion in a prosecutor’s speech as follows: 1) changes of tempo; 2) changes of the pitch of a voice; 3) replacements of the rising tone with the falling one and vice versa; 4) usage of complex tones; 5) use of an interrupted ascending or descending scale; 6) change of sentence stress type; 7) division of a sense group into two or more parts. The above mentioned facts enable us to conclude that: while describing the first of these aspects of typological similarity of prosody in the compared languages, the parameters of the pitch component of intonation are most informative when differentiating attitudinal ones. The specificity of interaction between prosodic and grammar means when expressing persuasion in Ukrainian and English prosecutor’s speech is caused by a degree of distinction between the grammatical and vocabulary systems of the compared languages.

The article considers raising students' media literacy as the response to the pandemic challenges highlighting the problem of deficiency of information verifiability and the importance of raising students' critical thinking as a crucial tool in decreasing the COVID-19 pandemic potential damage. The focus of the study lies in the research what sources/genres students of technical universities resort to in getting the information concerning the pandemic, what is their ability to distinguish facts from opinions, trustworthy information from misinformation as well as what are possible differences among students of technical and humanitarian specialities in terms of media literacy. The findings of the survey of 511 students majoring in different specialities at the National Technical University of Ukraine' Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute' (after this, the official abbreviated name – Igor Sikorsky KPI) revealed a need in raising students' media literacy in terms of critically assessing information concerning the coronavirus.
The change in the concept of virtue during the COVID-19 pandemic
Authors: Rybinska Yuliia , Loshenko Oleksandra , Kurapov Anton , Ponochovna-Rysak Taisiia , Kholmakova Yuliia
Published: December 2021

The purpose of the article is to cover the change in the concept of virtue during the COVID-19 pandemic, show its connection with human values and ethics. Virtue is the highest spiritual quality of a person. The main virtues include wisdom, courage, justice, moderation, responsiveness, loyalty, modesty, generosity and many others that affect all aspects of human life. Despite the recognized value of virtue as a system of moral guidelines, its concept is fraught with disputes about whether it is really generally valid, as well as about the problem of the effectiveness of virtue as a universal guideline and criterion for moral choice and its relevance in modern moral experience. This article argues that the most significant shift in the concept of virtue during the pandemic was the rethinking and increased awareness of the importance of such virtues as solidarity and moral responsibility, as well as aspects of relationships with people such as kindness, compassion, and empathy. It is proved that the concept of virtue has moved from a question of choice to the category of necessity, the most important guideline and guarantee of the common good.

Published: December 2021

The article describes current problems of students' life quality connected with online learning caused by Covid-19 pandemic and related quarantine. Since online learning can be considered stressful, and that pandemics and quarantine restrictions increase its impact on students' emotional and mental health as a basis for their quality of life, it is significant to discover their impact. The purpose of the research is to examine changing in students’ mental health during two periods of online learning. 258 students of Yaroslav Mudryi National Law University (Ukraine) became the sample group. Quantitative and qualitative methods have been used to achieve the purpose. The results have revealed that a rate of stress and an anxiety level among students have grown drastically comparing the first and the second online learning periods. The major conclusion is that experiencing stress, caused by online learning in terms of the pandemic and quarantine, a persons’ psychological well-being is badly influenced and can lead to depression. Practical recommendations to reduce stress and psychological problems have been proposed.

El apocalipsis es decepcionante: el punto muerto despolitizado del consenso sobre el cambio climático
Authors: Swyngedouw Erik
Published: December 2021

Actualmente existe un consenso generalizado sobre la realidad del cambio climático y la necesidad urgente de tomar medidas inmediatas y de gran alcance. No obstante, a pesar de la preocupación científica y la retórica alarmista, las variables climáticas empeoran. En este artículo sostenemos que la negación de lo Real de los antagonismos políticos y socio-ecológicos que caracterizan el proceso (pos)politizante actual se ve claramente representada en las excentricidades del dilema ecológico en general y, específicamente, en las intervenciones climáticas inefectivas. Sostenemos que el saber sobre el clima se moviliza en un discurso posverdad que oculta aquello que da forma al problema climático y, de este modo, la mirada ambiental queda circunscrita a una cosa fetichizada, asegurando así que nada realmente cambie. Recurriremos a una mirada psicoanalítica lacaniana para salir de este impasse, en particular desde el punto de vista de los activistas y movimientos climáticos más comprometidos. Concluiremos que la base sintomática sobre la que se basa la legitimidad del discurso ambiental, su práctica y la de muchos movimientos climáticos, descansa sobre traumas reprimidos. Desplegar trayectorias político-ecológicas diferentes requiere transgredir la fantasía que oculta estos traumas.
Conflictos por el agua en las cuencas de los ríos Matanza-Riachuelo y Reconquista. Claves para pensar la justicia hídrica a escala metropolitana
Authors: Merlinsky Gabriela , Tobías Melina
Published: December 2021

A través del presente artículo proponemos reflexionar en torno a la justicia hídrica en la metrópolis de Buenos Aires. Para ello hemos desarrollado un análisis de los principales vectores de la desigualdad socio espacial en materia de agua, saneamiento y riesgo de inundaciones a escala metropolitana, concentrándonos en dos territorios hidrosociales: las cuencas de los ríos Matanza-Riachuelo y la del río Reconquista. Con relación a dichos territorios, interesa problematizar la construcción de nuevos significados en torno a la justicia hídrica y al modo en que estos disputan las concepciones prevalecientes acerca de la gestión de cuencas en diferentes escalas. Para cumplir estos objetivos, la metodología adoptada se basó en la triangulación de fuentes primarias (entrevistas en profundidad a miembros de organizaciones territoriales de las cuencas analizadas) y de fuentes secundarias (estadísticas oficiales de cobertura de servicios de agua y saneamiento, indicadores ambientales de inundación, entre otros). Entre las principales conclusiones, el trabajo permitió entrever que, si bien en los últimos años han tomado relevancia las cuencas como unidades de gestión y política ambiental, estas iniciativas no logran abordar el agua desde un enfoque integral que resguarde el derecho a la salud y a un hábitat digno.
Humedales, riesgo de desastres y cambio climático en la Región Metropolitana de Buenos Aires. Entre imaginarios geográficos, conflictos ambientales y políticas públicas "
Authors: Ríos Diego , Caruso Sergio
Published: December 2021

La mayor frecuencia e intensidad de eventos hidrometeorológicos extremos, atribuidos al cambio climático y a la proliferación de formas inadecuadas de urbanización en áreas bajas de la Región Metropolitana de Buenos Aires, han amplificado el poder destructivo de las inundaciones. Esto colocó en la agenda pública las formas controversiales en las que esas tierras y los humedales se incorporan a la trama urbana. En este contexto, basados en los postulados del ambientalismo y de la Reducción de Riesgo de Desastres ante el cambio climático derivada del Marco de Sendai, los humedales han cobrado una nueva notoriedad. Consideramos que ese reposicionamiento se debe a una serie de procesos interrelacionados: 1) cambios en los imaginarios geográficos, en los que la trama de sentido pone en valor a los bienes y servicios brindados por estos ecosistemas; 2) la emergencia de conflictos ambientales gestados por la contraposición de intereses, visiones y acciones entre los distintos actores sociales que participan en su urbanización y en el tipo de uso otorgado a esas tierras, y 3) la elaboración de políticas públicas tendientes tanto a la conservación de los humedales como al desarrollo de medidas de mitigación y adaptación al cambio climático bajo el paradigma de la modernización ecológica. Desde una mirada crítica, este trabajo busca describir y analizar los tres procesos antes señalados, así como plantear posibles líneas de investigación sobre el desarrollo de soluciones tecnocráticas basadas en la naturaleza que favorecen nuevas formas de mercantilización; las implicancias de las incipientes políticas en la materia, y el papel que tienen los grupos de más bajos recursos ante este escenario.
Historias de quienes no aparecen en la historia. Reflexiones y narrativas sobre turismo rural a partir de un proyecto de museo comunitario en Mas Blanco (Aragón, España)
Authors: Del Romero Renau Luis
Published: December 2021

Tradicionalmente, las narrativas construidas en torno al patrimonio cultural material e inmaterial, en cuanto oferta turística en el ámbito rural, se han centrado en destacar la figura de personajes poderosos, normalmente hombres blancos y de clases altas, y en valorizar aquellos edificios más notables, dejando en segundo plano otros casos de patrimonio vinculados a las clases populares u obreras. Partiendo de la base de que el turismo rural es una actividad que contribuye a dinamizar y diversificar la economía de estos territorios, el trabajo pretende abordar críticamente los discursos dominantes y las narrativas que se construyen sobre la historia de la inmensa mayoría de nuestras áreas rurales, especialmente, a través de aquellas iniciativas y proyectos capitalizados desde la administración pública centralizada. Como contrapunto a este análisis crítico, se muestra un ejemplo de nueva museología comunitaria desarrollada en un área rural en crisis, la comunidad autónoma de Aragón, a través del proyecto del Museo de las Masías y la Memoria Rural en la aldea de Mas Blanco en el que, tanto desde su concepción como en el relato sobre la historia de este lugar, destacan el papel de la mujer rural y de clases populares.
Especialización del café en Costa Rica: panorama local de los mercados internacionales del café
Authors: Pérez Magaña Cristóbal , Montiel Hernández Enrique
Published: December 2021

La apertura de la economía mundial en las últimas décadas ha contribuido a forjar una nueva división internacional del trabajo en la que, si bien determinados países en desarrollo se volcaron a la fabricación y exportación de manufacturas intensivas en mano de obra, otros continuaron exportando materias primas. El café es un caso emblemático de esta división geográfica, no sólo porque son países en desarrollo sus productores y países desarrollados sus consumidores, sino porque son estos últimos los que han favorecido la integración de la producción del café a los mercados internacionales. Ello ha posibilitado a los países desarrollados regular a los productores cafetaleros a través de influir ampliamente en la formación y especulación de los precios del café. En el caso de Costa Rica, abocarse a la producción especializada de café con el objetivo de obtener mejores precios y ser más competitiva ha significado una mayor participación de los productores en los procesos de comercialización, además ha implicado una mayor influencia de agentes externos, como torrefactores, comercializadores y exportadores, externalizando riesgos a los productores y la mano de obra, lo que resulta en salarios bajos, trasiego de café y elevadas ganancias para unos pocos.
El caso de ‘viste’: ¿Un nuevo marcador discursivo rioplatense?
Authors: Lifszyc Irina
Published: December 2021

El estudio del proceso de creación de los marcadores discursivos en distintas lenguas ha proliferado recientemente. Si bien los distintos autores enmarcan este cambio lingüístico dentro de distintas teorías, lo cierto es que estos trabajos se han multiplicado, especialmente en español, una lengua cuyos verbos presentan tal flexibilidad que permite su recategorización como partículas del discurso. El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar la evolución diacrónica del significado de viste en español rioplatense y su uso como marcador discursivo. Se extrajeron datos de tres corpus electrónicos de la Real Academia Española y, tras descartar los ejemplos de viste que correspondían al presente del verbo vestir, se analizaron todas las instancias de viste según se utilizaran como verbo principal o marcador discursivo. Además, en los casos en que viste se utilizó como verbo principal, se evaluó si su significado era el etimológico (la percepción a través de los ojos) o epistémico (conocimiento), expansión semántica que habría permitido su uso como marcador discursivo. Se encontró que, a lo largo del siglo XX, viste experimentó un proceso de debilitamiento semántico que le añadió un significado epistémico, lo que luego permitió que los hablantes manipularan la forma pragmáticamente y la utilizaran como marcador discursivo.

Análisis contrastivo de las estructuras sintácticas en crónicas de patinaje sobre hielo en inglés y español
Authors: Quintero-Ramírez Sara
Published: December 2021

El objetivo del presente artículo consiste en identificar y describir sintácticamente las estructuras utilizadas en crónicas televisivas de patinaje artístico sobre hielo en inglés y español a fin de contrastar dichas estructuras en ambas lenguas. Para logar dicho objetivo, partimos de un corpus conformado por la crónica de ocho actuaciones de patinaje de figura, esto es cuatro crónicas en inglés y otras cuatro en español. Para realizar el análisis sintáctico, en primera instancia, identificamos las estructuras enunciadas por los cronistas. Enseguida, clasificamos dichas estructuras de acuerdo con el criterio de presencia o ausencia de verbo en ellas. Posteriormente, describimos estas estructuras de acuerdo con sus características más prominentes. Por último, contrastamos las estructuras encontradas en el corpus de cada lengua a fin de presentar las semejanzas y diferencias más relevantes. Los resultados de la presente investigación pretenden ser una contribución en los estudios contrastivos sobre discurso deportivo, especialmente aquellos enfocados en la sintaxis.
La neología en español relacionada con los business angels: un estudio de caso en el campo de la financiación alternativa
Authors: De la Fuente Marina Beatriz
Published: December 2021

En este artículo nos fijamos como objetivo contribuir al estudio de los procesos neológicos en un campo temático concreto, el de la financiación alternativa, a través del análisis pormenorizado de las unidades terminológicas en español relacionadas con los business angels. Para ello, hemos recopilado dos amplios corpora de textos especializados correspondientes a las variedades de España y de América. Además de obtener datos cuantitativos sobre la frecuencia de aparición de los términos, prestaremos atención a su delimitación conceptual (incluyendo los tipos de business angels) y a los criterios lingüísticos que intervienen en su formación, de manera que se proporcionen algunos puntos de anclaje para que el usuario (especialista, redactor técnico, traductor, etc.) tome decisiones fundamentadas a la hora de emplear estos neónimos en español.
Los grados de suposicionalidad discursiva: aportes para el análisis estratégico del discurso
Authors: Ventura Aniela
Published: December 2021

Analizar estratégicamente un discurso supone reconstruir las estrategias discursivas desplegadas en un corpus, a partir del análisis de la combinación recurrente de recursos gramaticales y pragmático-discursivos y su vinculación con una finalidad interactiva. Para ello se requiere relevar y estudiar sistemáticamente distintos recursos, entre los que se encuentran aquellos empleados para producir significados implícitos.Estos recursos pueden ser muy diversos; dar lugar a presupuestos, implicaturas o silenciamientos y requerir diferentes esfuerzos de procesamiento por parte del destinatario. Por esta complejidad, su análisis constituye un desafío metodológico al que se busca responder en este artículo. Para ello, se desarrolla la propuesta de grados de suposicionalidad discursiva, que gradúa las distintas clases de significados implícitos en relación con el compromiso del sujeto discursivo y el esfuerzo cognitivo del destinatario y plantea que los discursos pueden caracterizarse por un grado bajo, medio o alto de suposicionalidad. Para ilustrar esta propuesta, se presenta, además, el análisis estratégico discursivo de dos sub-estrategias discursivas concretas que permite demostrar cómo el grado de suposicionalidad resulta un rasgo determinante para diferenciarlas.

Flexoelectricity Driven Fano Resonance in Slotted Carbon Nanotubes for Decoupled Multifunctional Sensing
Authors: Ren Jinlong , Liu Yingchao , Shi Xingqiang , Shan Guangcun , Tang Mingming , Kaun Chaocheng , Dou Kunpeng
Published: December 2021

Multifunctionality, interference-free signal readout, and quantum effect are important considerations for flexible sensors equipped within a single unit towards further miniaturization. To address these criteria, we present the slotted carbon nanotube (CNT) junction features tunable Fano resonance driven by flexoelectricity, which could serve as an ideal multimodal sensory receptor. Based on extensive ab initio calculations, we find that the effective Fano factor can be used as a temperature-insensitive extrinsic variable for sensing the bending strain, and the Seebeck coefficient can be used as a strain-insensitive intrinsic variable for detecting temperature. Thus, this dual-parameter permits simultaneous sensing of temperature and strain without signal interference. We further demonstrate the applicability of this slotted junction to ultrasensitive chemical sensing which enables precise determination of donor-type, acceptor-type, and inert molecules. This is due to the enhancement or counterbalance between flexoelectric and chemical gating. Flexoelectric gating would preserve the electron–hole symmetry of the slotted junction whereas chemical gating would break it. As a proof-of-concept demonstration, the slotted CNT junction provides an excellent quantum platform for the development of multistimuli sensation in artificial intelligence at the molecular scale.
The tyranny of immaterialism: Refusing the body in The Winter’s Tale
Authors: Caporicci Camilla
Published: December 2021

The aim of this study is to analyse the way Shakespeare’s work reveals the failure – in both private and public lives – of a system of thought in which the body is construed as a mere receptacle of immaterial and “superior” entities, supposedly governed by rational kinds of political and social power. After a brief consideration of Measure for Measure as a play focused on the political danger of denying the material aspect of the individual, The Winter’s Tale will be seen as presenting a similar problem. Here, the aspiration to an ideal of absolute purity and the consequent demonization of the sexualized flesh, deriving from both Puritan theology and neo-Platonic philosophy, merges with the anxiety towards the “rebellious” body fostered by sixteenth century medical science, constituting the disruptive force that initiates the plot. This attitude of denial of the body, linked to political power, leads to both a psychological breakdown and, in the public sphere, to a regime of tyranny.
Grimalkin and other Shakespearean Celts
Authors: Hadfield Andrew
Published: December 2021

This essay examines the representation of Ireland and Celtic culture within the British Isles in Shakespeare’s works. It argues that Shakespeare was interested in ideas of colonisation and savagery and based his perceptions on contemporary events, the history of the British Isles and important literary works such as William Baldwin’s prose fiction, Beware the Cat. His plays, notably The Comedy of Errors and Macbeth, represent Protestant England as an isolated culture surrounded by hostile Celtic forces which form a threatening shadowy state. The second part of the essay explores Shakespeare’s influence on Irish culture after his death, arguing that he was absorbed into Anglo-Irish culture and played a major role in establishing Ireland’s Anglophone literary identity. Shakespeare imported the culture of the British Isles into his works – and then, as his fame spread, his plays exported what he had understood back again, an important feature of Anglo-Irish literary identity, as many subsequent writers have understood.
Constructing a portrait of the early-modern woman writer for eighteenth-century female readers: George Ballard’s Memoirs of Several Ladies of Great Britain (1752)
Authors: Lasa Álvarez Begoña
Published: December 2021

George Ballard’s Memoirs of Several Ladies of Great Britain (1752) is of special relevance to the study of early-modern women writers and their subsequent reception, since it contains details of the lives and writings of a considerable number of these women. This type of publication responded to the demand for educative works in general, and particularly to a growing female audience. Thus its chief goal was to provide readers with exemplary models of behaviour. Within the theoretical framework of women’s studies and literary biography, the biographies of these women writers are analysed in order to determine whether their lives and careers as writers were in keeping with the didactic purpose of such texts, and the extent to which the fact of being women shaped their biographical portraits.
Money makes the world go round: Shakespeare, commerce and community
Authors: Drakakis John
Published: December 2021

In early modern England money was of central importance to areas of social life that are in the modern world separate from the study of economics. The demand for liquid capital and the practical problems associated with the devising of a monetary system that was reliable exercised the minds of philosophers, social commentators, and dramatists. The template for discussion was laid down by Aristotle, who perceived financial activity as part of the larger community and its various modes of social interaction. Copernicus wrote a treatise on money, as had Nicholas of Oresme before him. But in the sixteenth century dramatists turned their attention to what we would call “economics” and its impact on social life. Writers such as Thomas Lupton, Christopher Marlowe, Ben Jonson, and Shakespeare all dealt with related issues of material greed, usury, hospitality and friendship and the ways in which they transformed, and were transformed by particular kinds of social and economic practice. These concerns fed into the investigation of different kinds of society, particularly turning their attention to their strengths and weaknesses, and in the case of dramatists providing imaginative accounts of the kinds of life that these innovations produced.
Timūr’s theatrical journey: Or, when did Tamburlaine become black?
Authors: McJannet Linda
Published: December 2021

Reviews of modern productions of Marlowe’s Tamburlaine often note a three-hundred-year hiatus between a recorded performance in 1641, just before the closing of the theatres, and Tyrone Guthrie’s revival at the Old Vic in 1951. While the statement is mostly true with respect to Marlowe’s play, Tamerlane or Timūr Lenk and the Ottoman emperor Bayazid I (Marlowe’s Bajazeth) had important theatrical incarnations in the 1700s before they declined into parody in the 1800s. When Marlowe’s play was revived in the modern era, the main characters reclaimed their dignity, but they also acquired markers of racial, ethnic, or religious otherness that had not been prominent earlier. Timūr’s (and Bayazid’s) varied theatrical representations illustrate the malleability of iconic cultural figures, the sometimes problematic emphasis on ethnic difference in modern theatrical practice, and the challenges and opportunities of cross-racial casting.
Re-humanising Coriolanus: Community and the ethical self
Authors: Pascual Garrido Mª Luisa
Published: December 2021

In this article I analyse subjectivity in Coriolanus taking as a starting point the traditional antagonism between essentialist humanism and cultural materialism. While mainstream humanism has approached Shakespeare’s plays stressing the transcendental nature and autonomy of the subject, cultural materialism has challenged that assumption by underscoring the actual lack of freedom of the individual whose actual choices are determined not by the inherent nature of the hero but by social and political forces.
My aim is to try to bridge the gap between two seemingly divergent ways of understanding subjectivity by adopting a more sceptical form of humanism, which is based on both the acceptance of the limits and the vulnerability of human beings (Mousley 2007) and recent developments in communitarian theory and biopolitics (Nancy 1991, Agambem 1995, Butler 2006, Esposito 2012). I contend that Coriolanus is an embodiment of humanity, a singular being capable of making an ethical choice at the risk of his own death.
Database-oriented annotation of early modern plays: a proposal
Authors: Tronch Jesus
Published: December 2021

This essay proposes that the electronic texts of plays constituting a database-collection (in this case early modern drama) should be “annotated” by marking up not only its structural components but also the editorial annotations about a given feature or aspect of the play (usually included in the commentary notes of print editions), and that these annotations should be conceived having in mind the functionalities of a database. By marking up both the text's structural components and editor's information they constitute related data to be processed by the computer for searches and statistical analysis. This implies that texts should not be annotated individually and independently from the other anthologized works, but rather as part of an organized collection of data that, adequately encoded, will allow users to make queries into the whole database. A second section of the essay discusses three encoding mechanisms, based on the Guidelines of the Text Encoding Initiative, necessary to mark up these “annotations,” and possible ad hoc extensions of the TEI schema in order to represent the annotated features. Finally, a third section comments on practical examples showing how to encode a set of features: scene location, image, theme, allusion, proverb, wordplay, grammar, swearing expression, address form, as well as features covered by the TEI Guidelines such as roles, stage directions, names and place-names, verse form and textual issues.
"The Mobile Shall Worship Thee": Cant language in Thomas Shadwell’s The Squire of Alsatia (1688)
Authors: Schintu Martínez Paula
Published: December 2021

The dramatic increase in criminality in sixteenth-century England was behind the emergence of a new type of literary work known as “rogue literature,” which dealt with the life and activities of beggars and lawbreakers. These rogues’ language, cant, became a major concern for many authors, who attached glossaries to their works for the benefit of those who were not familiar with it, marking the beginning of canting lexicography. It is within this framework that Thomas Shadwell (1640–1692) wrote his famous The Squire of Alsatia (1688), which is the focus of this study. This paper explores the use of cant language in this celebrated play from a linguistic and lexicographic point of view, arguing that its profuse employment of canting terminology, much of which is first documented in the play, made a significant contribution to studies in canting lexicography and proved its reliability as a historical portrait of seventeenth-century English cant.
From directions to descriptions: Reading the theatrical Nebentext in Ben Jonson’s Workes as an authorial outlet
Authors: Amelang David J.
Published: December 2021

This article explores how certain dramatists in early modern England and in Spain, specifically Ben Jonson and Miguel de Cervantes (with much more emphasis on the former), pursued authority over texts by claiming as their own a new realm which had not been available—or, more accurately, as prominently available—to playwrights before: the stage directions in printed plays. The way both these playwrights and/or their publishers dealt with the transcription of stage directions provides perhaps the clearest example of a theatrical convention translated into the realm of readership.
Perceptions of sister queens: A comparison of printed book dedications to Mary and Elizabeth Tudor
Authors: Schutte Valerie
Published: December 2021

Comparisons of Mary and Elizabeth Tudor, sister queens of England, have become popular in the last decade as scholars have realized the impact of Mary on Elizabeth’s queenship. To further that comparison, this essay likens printed book dedications to Mary and Elizabeth before each woman became queen and during their first five (or only five) years as queens. This essay argues that dedications to the Tudor sister queens show that these two women were perceived more commonly than has previously been recognized. By exploring these book dedications, it becomes evident that dedications were central to contemporary perceptions of what authors and translators thought Mary and Elizabeth would be interested in reading and passing along to their subjects along with what dedications thought the sister queens should be reading so as to be persuaded in different directions.
