“Sorry, no landscapes”. La volatilisation du paysage dans les atmosphères de Blow up (1966) de Michelangelo Antonioni
Authors: Gaudin Olivier
Published: December 2024

Avec Blow up, Antonioni prolonge sa recherche d’un cinéma atmosphérique : les variations lumineuses et sonores, les effets d’instabilité – des personnages, de la caméra – et de décentrement engendrent des ambiances singulières, tour à tour claustrophobiques, volatiles ou éthérées. Le regard ne trouve de répit que ponctuel et illusoire, avant de comprendre qu’il était lui-même objet de manipulation. Cette déstabilisation par les ambiances rompt avec les représentations conventionnelles du paysage. Comment qualifier le rôle si expressif du travail esthétique des atmosphères dans Blow up ? Quelles continuités et quelles ruptures peut-on y déceler avec les précédents films d’Antonioni ? Cet article étudie la mise en scène des ambiances londoniennes comme un refus délibéré du paysage. Celui-ci est remplacé par une succession d’espaces distendus, éclatés ou fissurés, évoquant la désorientation « morale » des personnages. Antonioni poursuit une recherche aussi expressive que subtile sur les moyens d’édifier une critique visuelle, par les moyens du cinéma, de certaines des tensions propres à la « société du spectacle » des années 1960 – et qui restent en partie les nôtres.
Qu’apporte à la didactique des langues l’histoire des méthodologies et des institutions ?
Authors: Chiss Jean-Louis
Published: December 2024

L’article traite de l’importance grandissante des recherches historiques en didactique des langues et des conceptions différentes qui se manifestent dans ces recherches, quand il s’agit par exemple d’envisager les plurilinguismes ou les problématiques de l’immigration. Dans un premier temps, on s’attache à une institution, les « Cours de civilisation française » de la Sorbonne, où la langue a été longtemps considérée comme un vecteur et où l’accent a été mis sur la civilisation. On s’interroge alors sur la relation entre « culture » et « civilisation ». Dans un deuxième temps, on met l’accent sur l’histoire des méthodologies des langues et du français langue étrangère : à côté des approches dominantes existe une grande diversité d’approches « non conventionnelles ». Le rappel des méthodologies, s’il fait appel à la recherche historique, constitue aussi un « lieu de mémoire » structurant pour la didactique des langues.
Un enjeu d’influence : contrôler la qualité et les méthodes de l’enseignement du français à l’étranger (années 1950-1960)
Authors: Vermauwt Antoine
Published: December 2024

Si une réflexion didactique sur les méthodes d’enseignement du français existe dès la fin du XIXe siècle, le discours porté sur la langue française et sur sa diffusion connaît un bouleversement entre 1945 et 1970. La défaite de 1940, l’occupation allemande, la collaboration, les progrès de l’anglais partout dans le monde entraînent au sein de l’État, et notamment au Quai d’Orsay, une prise de conscience sur la vulnérabilité des positions françaises dans le monde. Des réalisations concrètes voient le jour en 1945, au temps du Gouvernement provisoire de la République française, mais aussi sous la IVe République, avant qu’un élan majeur ne soit insufflé à l’action linguistique extérieure de la France sous le général de Gaulle (1958-1969).

Any disorder of the brain stem that involves the auditory pathways and/or centers may produce hearing abnormalities. Auditory pathways are tonotopically organized, and they cross the midline at several points both below and at the level of the inferior colliculus but the central nucleus of the inferior colliculus and higher centers have a clear contralateral dominance. Ipsilateral auditory abnormalities are caused by lesions below or within the cochlear nuclei; bilateral auditory abnormalities are caused by lesions rostral to cochlear nuclei or they may be silent. A patient with a tectal plate glioma can present with bilateral hearing impairment due to the involvement of both inferior colliculi. Our case is a 28-year-old male who presented with progressive bilateral hearing impairment and a generalized headache despite normal pure-tone audiometry. Computed tomography (CT) of the brain revealed a tectal plate glioma (TPG) extending into the right thalamus, and an obstructive hydrocephalus. Following a ventriculoperitoneal shunt for cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) diversion, navigation-guided tumour excision was performed via a supracerebellar infratentorial approach. Postoperatively he developed unexpected aphasia probably due to ischemic changes in the cerebellar vermis and a focus of the adjacent right cerebellar hemisphere. This case highlights the rarity of bilateral auditory impairment in a TPG, surgical challenges posed by the tumour’s location, and potentially rare post-op complication of cerebellar mutism syndrome.
The role of suicidal motivations in adolescence: implications for the psychotherapeutic treatment of suicidal risk
Authors: Casini Maria Pia , Moselli Marta , Wisniewski Alice , Williams Riccardo
Published: December 2024

The study of suicidal risk has increasingly emphasized the importance of assessing specific suicidal motivations. Motivations express an elaboration of the condition of psychache, representing an effective perspective on the management of suicidal risk in psychotherapy. This study explores suicidal motivations and personality pathology in a clinical sample of adolescents with suicidal ideation or a history of suicide attempts. We aim to investigate how specific motivational factors and personality disorders (PDs) contribute to the foreseeability of suicidal outcomes, such as the occurrence, number, and lethality of suicide attempts and their interaction with the impact of personality disorders. A sample of 134 adolescents aged 12-18, with active suicidal ideation or recent suicide attempts, was assessed using a combination of self-report measures and structured clinical interviews. Binomial logistic regressions and linear regressions were conducted to explore the predictive value of PDs and motivational factors on suicidal behaviors. The results indicate that specific suicidal motivations, such as interpersonal influence, escape fantasy, and absence of fear, provide an additional increase in the foreseeability value beyond personality disorder criteria alone. These findings suggest that assessing suicidal motivations can significantly enhance risk evaluation and inform more effective therapeutic interventions. Beyond identifying certain risk factors, the therapist’s ability to diss and process specific suicidal motivations in the context of the therapeutic relationship can be a decisive factor in monitoring and directly intervening on the risk.

Project Severe Weather Archive of the Philippines(SWAP) Part 1: Establishing a Baseline Climatology for Severe Weather across the Philippine Archipelago
Authors: Capuli Generich
Published: December 2024

Because of the rudimentary reporting methods and general lack of documentation, the creation of a severe weather database within the Philippines has been difficult yet relevant target for climatology purposes and historical interest. Previous online severe weather documentation i.e. of tornadoes, waterspouts, and hail events, has also often been few, inconsistent, inactive, or is now completely decommissioned. Several countries or continents support severe weather information through either government-sponsored or independent organizations. For this work, Project SWAP stands as a collaborative exercise, with clear data attribution and open avenues for augmentation, and the creation of a common data model to store the phenomenon’s information will assist in maintaining and updating the aforementioned online archive in the Philippines. This paper presents the methods necessary for creating the SWAP database, provide broader climatological analysis of spatio-temporal patterns in severe weather occurrence within the Philippine context, and outline potential use cases for the data. We also highlight the project’s current limitations as is to any other existing and far larger database, and emphasize the need for understanding these events’ and their mesoscale environments, inline to the current severe weather climatologies across the globe.
Intercession in the Maturidi School and its place in Kazakh Religious Literature

Published: December 2024

The concept of intercession is widely evidenced in Islamic texts. However, it was opposed by some significant Islamic sects and groups throughout history. This article is intended to provide evidence in favour of intercession and debunk the opposing position through analyzing the texts of Islamic scholars, alongside the Quran and hadiths. We also consider how the theological influence and prominence of this concept can be found in Kazakh Islam through an analysis of traditional Kazakh poetry. My task is to compare the concept of intercession as defined in Maturidi School teachings and traditional Kazakh religion, and therefore to demonstrate the spiritual importance that intercession has for Muslim believers.
Metaphor and Symbolism in the Language of the Quran: A Linguistic Study on the Concept of Tauhid (Analysis of Surah al-Fatihah)
Authors: Suri Nursukma , Tanjung Muaz
Published: December 2024

This study aims to delve into the profound meanings and functions of metaphor and symbolism in Surah al-Fatihah, particularly in the context of the concept of tauhid (monotheism) in Islam. Given the urgency of comprehending a sacred text that is frequently recited yet not fully understood theologically by many Muslims, this research seeks to bridge the gap between ritualistic practice and deep theological understanding. The methodology employed is linguistic analysis, integrating Lakoff and Johnson’s conceptual metaphor theory alongside Sperber and Wilson’s relevance theory to interpret the theological symbolism and linguistic use in this surah. The findings indicate that Surah al-Fatihah employs metaphor and symbolism not only to convey the fundamental principles of Islam but also to strengthen Muslims' understanding and belief in the concept of tauhid. This surah contains profound linguistic layers that facilitate comprehension of the oneness of Allah, divine justice, and human dependence on divine power through its rich linguistic structure and careful word choice. The discussion reveals that the metaphor and symbolism in Surah al-Fatihah are not merely aesthetic elements but also serve as powerful educational tools to deepen spiritual and theological understanding. As a recommendation, it is suggested that Islamic religious education place greater emphasis on linguistic analysis in interpreting sacred texts. This would not only enhance theological understanding but also reinforce the spiritual and intellectual connection of believers to the teachings of Islam.
Euthanasia: A Fiqh Approach to the issue of Dignified Death in a Medical Context
Authors: Marsella Emma , Zein Achyar , Nahar Syamsu , Suhendar Aris
Published: December 2024

This article aims to explore the Fiqh approach to the issue of euthanasia within a medical context, given the increasing implementation and debate surrounding this practice globally. This study gains urgency from the significant growth in requests for euthanasia and assisted dying, raising profound questions about the criteria and conditions that permit this practice, as well as potential conflicts with religious and ethical principles. The methodology employed is a qualitative phenomenological approach, with primary data sources including verses from the Qur'an and Hadith, and academic literature through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR). Data analysis was conducted using the Miles, Huberman, and Saldana analytical model, with validity testing through source triangulation. The findings reveal that, within Qur'anic literature, euthanasia—particularly its active form—is opposed as it contravenes the principles of life's sanctity taught in Islam. In the medical context, euthanasia is categorised into active, passive, and physician-assisted suicide, each bearing significant legal and ethical implications. The SLR reveals that most studies focus on the legal and ethical aspects from a secular viewpoint, highlighting a gap in the literature integrating a Fiqh perspective. The research underscores the need for a more inclusive and sensitive approach to the religious context in health policy making and medical practice, especially in societies with large Muslim populations. This study offers a new perspective in medical ethics discussions, proposing a more holistic decision-making model that focuses not just on individual desires but also on the welfare of families and broader society.

Authors: Nasution Faiz Albar , Sutrisno Joko , Nuryadin Deden , Yasin Akhmad , Pribadi Muhammad Akbar
Published: December 2024

Religious tolerance is important in maintaining social harmony in Indonesia, which is rich in diversity of faiths. This research analyses the considerations behind the prohibition of interfaith greetings and its implications for interfaith relations. The method used is qualitative research with a desktop literature review research approach, collecting data from various sources of documents and related literature. The results show that the ban issued by the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) is based on theological aspects and has significant social impacts. People with more inclusive views show a desire to maintain harmony despite differences of opinion regarding the ban. On the other hand, despite the influence of religious authorities, interfaith dialogue and tolerance must continue to be upheld to create balance and harmony in society. As a way forward, more intensive dialogue between religious leaders and the community is needed to find common ground to strengthen unity amid diversity.
Playing with languages through languages
Authors: Jacobsen Susanne Karen , Löbl Stephanie Kim
Published: December 2024

This paper presents and discusses multilingual workshops developed and tested in the project Tværsproglighed ilæreruddannelsen (Plurilingual Approaches to Teacher Education) focused on the development of plurilingual approaches in teacher education in Denmark. We discuss the guiding principles underlying the joint teaching of English and French in teacher education. Our aim was to involve all our students and to ensure the development of a genuine plurilingual gaze and for them to take an additive approach (Holmen 2019) by not only teaching the students together, but also organisingthem in a manner which necessitated interdisciplinary collaboration. Furthermore, we consider the implications of a plurilingual approach to language learning with undergraduate students in teacher education, Danish lower secondary pupils, and their teachers. We exemplify how the inclusion of artefacts such as LEGO inspired by playful learning (Händel et al. 2021) in the development of multilingual activities promoted a willingness for undergraduate students and lower secondary pupils to participate. Our choice of LEGO had two main purposes: to inspire students to design their own activities for a given target group, focusing on a playful approach to learning, and to get students to focus less on themselves and to engage their entire linguistic repertoire.
Identifying the Risk of Violence in the Inpatient Setting
Authors:   , Julian Megan
Published: December 2024

Practice Problem: Workplace violence directly contributes to the development of psychological conditions in nurses and reduces nurses’ level of job satisfaction as well as organizational commitment (ANA, 2018). Additionally, the occurrence of workplace violence events impacts patient and organizational outcomes.

PICOT: The PICOT question that guided this project was, in acute-care medical-surgical nurses (P), does the use of a structured risk of violence screening tool (I), compared to current practice (C), improve the nurses’ perceived ability to identify patients who are at risk for becoming violent (O) over eight weeks (T)? Evidence: Evidence that was reviewed supported the implementation of a risk of violence screening tool and appropriate interventions following early identification.

Intervention: The Brøset Violence Checklist was implemented and completed every shift for every patient. If a patient screened out as a high risk for violence, security was notified and completed more frequent rounding.

Outcome: While not statistically significant, it was found that following implementation of this project, the percentage of nurses that rated their feeling safe at work as agree or strongly agree increased from 55% to 73%. Additionally, the percentage of nurses that rated their ability to identify the risk of violence as agree or strongly agree increased from 85% to 93%.

Conclusion: Using a risk of violence screening tool, such as the Brøset Violence Checklist is clinically successful at improving nurse perception of safety and ability to identify the potential risk of violence.

If the feed meets human needs, efforts will be made to find alternative feed by utilizing waste. One of them is the use of tamarind seeds using hydroponic fodder technology. The research aimed to examine the effect of different amounts of water watering in tamarind seed hydroponic fodder on the germination percentage and vitamin A and E content. The research was conducted in Matani, Penfui District, Regency, in 2024. The research used tamarind seeds originating from the mainland area of Timor. The research used a Completely Randomized Design (CRD), with four treatments for the amount of watering, namely P1 = Number of waterings (NoW) 10 ml, P2 = NoW 20 ml, P3 = NoW 30 ml, P4 = NoW 40 ml and six replications and there were 154 g or 100 seeds per container. Variables include germination percentage and tamarind seed fodder's vitamin A and E contents. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and Duncan's advanced test were used. The results showed that the amount of watering had a very significant effect (P<0.01) on the germination percentage and Vitamin A and E content, and the best amount of watering was 30 ml/day three times/day. In conclusion, the germination percentage and levels of vitamins A and E are influenced by the amount of watering, with the best watering amount being 30ml/day, so it is recommended that its use be tested on livestock.
La genealogía de la narrativa oficial del cambio climático como instrumento geopolítico de subsunción del mundo por el capital
Authors: Luna Nemecio Josemanuel
Published: December 2024

Los inicios del siglo XXI se caracterizan por una inédita crisis multidimensional del ambiente. Esta situación se tradujo en que diversas investigaciones científicas buscaron explicar su génesis y desarrollo, así como contribuir a encontrar soluciones para enfrentar y solucionar la devastación ecológica del mundo. Sin embargo, estas preocupaciones quedaron subordinadas bajo la narrativa oficial del cambio climática que alude a la existencia de un sobrecalentamiento planetario producido por la producción antropogénica de dióxido de carbono, frente a la cual se crean los imaginarios hegemónicos de la sostenibilidad como una forma de afrontar la emergencia climática. Tomando nota de lo anterior, este artículo científico examinó cómo se impuso la narrativa oficial del cambio climático a partir de responder a la serie de intereses, necesidades y caprichos de la élite imperialista, principalmente norteamericana. Esto permitió concluir que la genealogía científica de la narrativa oficial del cambio climático representa hoy en día un instrumento geopolítico a favor del desarrollo mundial del capitalismo.

The Problem of Involuntary Resettlement in Development Project
Authors: Poghosyan Sona
Published: December 2024

Nowadays various development projects aimed at generating economic growth and thereby improving general welfare are implemented in Armenia, as in many other post-Soviet countries. These large-scale infrastructural projects are usually funded by private or international donors in order to contribute to the development of various infrastructural sectors of the country, such as urban development, road construction, water supply, etc. However, internationally as well as in our country in recent years such programs may result not only in the expected positive development, but also in a number of negative social and environmental consequences such as obligatory land/property acquisition and involuntary resettlement. This is exacerbated by concerns about the possibility of long-term sustainable development approach, where economic development takes place at the expense of increasing social or environmental risks. This article discusses the problem of involuntary resettlement in development projects and analyses its characteristics in modern societies considering the Armenian experience as well.
Description of the Modern Conspicuous Consumption (on the Example of Yerevan City)
Authors: Hovsepyan Seda
Published: December 2024

Human mentality is changing and habitually involving new information and territory. On account of this societies are becoming wider and unlimited. Not developed and developing countries are trying to achieve developed countries. The reason of that process is the development of media: TV, radio, internet, etc. That is why the exploration of the conspicuous consumption development opportunities is so important. A sociological research, which was held in Yerevan, intended to describe the nature of conspicuous consumption and the facts that influence it. The typology of conspicuous consumption concerning different measures was created. Standards of technology, which includes stereotypic and comparable consumptions. 2. Customers’ behavior, which includes status, glamorous consumptions, and consumption which is directed to save and develop social communications. The uniqueness of conspicuous consumption is not limited in types of goods or services; it also depends upon the store or shop, where someone can get these goods or services and the location of the store. As a result of comparisons of different characters and categories of consumers and uniqueness of conspicuous consumption the consumers are included in 4 groups: economic, business, luxury, exclusive.
