Variable rate phosphorus fertilizer recommendations for rainfed wheat
Authors: Wardamı Al-mabrouk Hamid Hasan , Erşahin Sabit , Karahan Gülay
Published: April 2024

A uniform application of phosphorus (P) fertilizers to spatially variable soils often results in under-fertilization in low P-localities and over-fertilization in high P-localities. This study aimed to evaluate the variable rate applicability of P fertilizers on a 300-ha sloping landscape under rainfed winter wheat cultivation for over 70 years. The soils were sampled (155 samples) using a random spatial sampling technique based on visual differences in soil color and topographic factors. Plant available soil P content (Pav) and other variables of soil samples were analyzed. The spatial variability of Pav was evaluated and the area was divided into three uniform zones (low, medium, high) for fertilizer P application based on the spatial variation of Pav. The values of Pav showed moderate variablity (CV= 21.3%). The fertilizer recommended by the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry (MAF) was calculated for five identically-sized sub-regions. The results showed that P fertilizer rates calculated for all five sub-regions based on MAF were identical, suggesting that the MAF was insensitive to spatial variability of Pav in the study soils. Both semivariograms and surface maps of soil properties indicated a strong spatial association between Pav and each of plant available water content (PAWC) and aggregate stability index (ASI), suggesting that yield limitation casued by PAWC should be considered in a variable P-application program in the study area. A more comprehensive study is needed to evaluate the efficiency and cost-benefit economics of variable P application in the study soils.
HSP90AB1 (SNP-4338T>C) gene polymorphism associated with thermo-tolerance in some cattle breeds in Türkiye
Authors: Argun Karslı Bahar
Published: April 2024

Global warming is becoming a greater threat for the agricultural sector, while molecular genetics studies still hold new opportunities, to not only detect heat-tolerant animals, but also to allow for increasing the frequencies of desired genotypes in a certain population. In this study, HSP90AB1 gene associated with heat tolerance was investigated in four cattle breeds known as Zavot (ZAV), Sout Anatolian Yellow (SAY), South Anatolian Red (SAR), and Brown Swiss (BS) reared in Türkiye via Allele-Specific Polymerase Chain Reaction (AS-PCR). 4338T>C mutation of the HSP90AB1 gene yielded a total of three genotypes (CC, CT, and TT) across all cattle breeds in which C allele frequency ranged from 0.34 (SAY) to 0.73 (BS), while T allele frequency varied between 0.27 (BS) and 0.66 (SAY). In BS, CC was the genotype with the highest frequency (0.50), whereas the frequency of CC was lower than CT and TT in the Anatolian breed (ZAV, SAR, and SAY). Similarly, the frequency of TT was higher in native Anatolian breeds than BS (0.05). All the populations studied were in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium (HWE) in terms of the HSP90AB1 gene. This study confirmed that the HSP90AB1 gene was polymorphic in four cattle breeds reared in Türkiye. This polymorphism has the potential to allow for improving heat tolerance to maintain animal production in the future via suitable selection studies. Therefore, this polymorphism should be conserved in Anatolian cattle breeds, while other genes related to different environmental stressors may be monitored by further studies.
Exploring Aeolothrips spp. Diversity: A Morpho-Molecular Examination of Aeolothrips collaris and Aeolothrips intermedius (Thysanoptera: Aeolothripidae)
Authors: Abu Saıd Omer Ali , Şahin Negiş İnci
Published: April 2024

This study investigated the evolutionary relationship between Aeolothrips collaris Priesner, 1919 and Aeolothrips intermedius Bagnall, 1934 within the Thysanoptera: Aeolothripidae family. Notably, A. collaris DNA barcode was made for the first time and compared with other Aeolothrips species in GenBank. While revealing a close genetic association (82-83%) between these species, the analysis using the Neighbor-Joining method clustered A. collaris with A. albicinctus Haliday, 1836 and A. ericae Bagnall, 1920, while A. albicinctus grouped alongside A. fasciatus (Linnaeus 1758) and A. duvali Moulton, 1927 GenBank BlastN analysis supported the expected placement of A. intermedius. These insights highlight significant genetic connections but suggest the necessity for a broader examination involving more species and gene regions. Expanding this research could yield a comprehensive understanding of the intricate taxonomic relationships within this thrips genus, setting the groundwork for future investigations into thrips species evolution and taxonomy.
Determination of fungal root and stem rot agents of melons grown in Kumluca/Antalya
Authors: Karabuğa Sarıca Fatma , Hatat Karaca Gürsel
Published: April 2024

Kumluca has an important place in terms of greenhouse vegetable cultivation. Melon is among one of the main vegetables grown in the district on about 3200 decare of land. Various diseases cause decrease in the yield and quality of melons grown undercover in Türkiye. Among them, Fusarium wilt and gummy stem blight diseases especially have caused significant losses in recent years. In this research, the incidence and severity of the root and stem rot disease in Kumluca were determined by surveys made in 72 melon greenhouses in this area. Plant and soil samples were taken to the laboratory and isolations were made. As a result, Fusarium oxysporum and Didymella bryoniae were the most frequently isolated pathogens from the plant samples, followed by other Fusarium species. Fungi with the highest isolation frequency from the soil samples were Fusarium spp., Rhizoctonia solani and Macrophomina phaseolina. In the pathogenicity test, F. oxysporum, F. solani, F. verticillioides, M. phaseolina and R. solani isolates caused severe symptoms on melon seedlings. Virulence of the F. oxysporum isolates on different cucurbit species was also investigated and it was determined that they caused severe wilting on melon and watermelon seedlings, while symptoms on squash and cucumber were moderate or slight. Additionally, reactions of five melon cultivars (Yusufbey, Çıtırex, Niovi, Ferdevs and Memory) commonly grown in the region against D. bryoniae were investigated using randomly selected four pathogen isolates. All the cultivars were susceptible to the disease.

Authors: Kara Mustafa , Özdamar Öznur , Giovanis Eleftherios
Published: April 2024

Enerji sürdürülebilir ekonomik büyüme için vazgeçilmez bir kaynaktır. Bazı ülkeler enerji rezervleri açısından şanslıyken diğerleri enerji ithalatına bağımlıdır. Küreselleşme ile birlikte artan uluslararası ticaret faaliyetleri enerji ithalatında değişimlere neden olabilir. Çalışmada küreselleşmenin enerji ithalatı üzerindeki rolü, enerjiye olan bağımlılık derecesine ve gelişmişlik düzeyine göre sınıflandırılmış 69 ülkede 1991-2014 dönemi için panel veri yöntemleriyle analiz edilmiştir. Analiz sonuçları, gelişmiş ve enerji ithalatına minimal bağımlılık gösteren ülkelerde, küreselleşmenin enerji ithalatı üzerindeki etkisinin sınırlı kaldığını göstermektedir. Bu ülkeler enerji gereksinimlerini büyük oranda yerel ve yenilenebilir enerji kaynakları aracılığıyla temin etmektedirler, bu bağlamda rüzgar ve güneş enerjisi gibi alternatif enerji kaynaklarının kullanımına yönelmektedirler. Öte yandan, enerji bağımlılığı yüksek olan gelişmiş ülkelerde, küreselleşme enerji ithalatının artmasına katkıda bulunmaktadır. Gelişmekte olan ülkeler söz konusu olduğunda, küreselleşmenin enerji ithalatı üzerindeki etkisi belirgin değildir. Bu ülkeler enerji gereksinimlerini daha ziyade yerel kaynaklar üzerinden karşılamakta ve enerji talepleri nispeten daha düşük düzeylerde seyretmektedir.

Bergson’un Felsefesinde İbrahim Kalın’ın Modernite Eleştirilerini Yeniden Okumak
Authors: Günay İbrahim Emre
Published: April 2024

Çalışmamızın konusu ve amacı düşünce dünyasında çalışmalarıyla önemli bir yere sahip olan İbrahim Kalın’ın modernite eleştirilerini ortaya koymak ve bu eleştirileri Bergson’un felsefesiyle yorumlayarak yeniden değerlendirmek ayrıca Kalın ve Bergson’un birbirini tamamlayan benzer düşünceler ortaya koydukları göstermektir. Her iki düşünürün de çalışmalarında modern insanın
akıl temelinde yarı tanrısal özne rolüne karşı, modern aklın ötesindeki gerçekliği ve aklı yapan öncesi ve sonu olmayan bir varlığı temel almaları çalışmamıza konu olmalarını sağlamıştır. Kalın’ın hayatın anlamının, ilerlemecilik anlayışı doğrultusunda her şeyin akıl temelinde belirlenmesine karşı bir modernite eleştirisi olarak Tanrı inancını koymasının nedenleri, Bergson’da modern düşüncenin ötesinde bir varoluşu ifade eden sezgi, süre, oluş, şuur ve tekâmül gibi kavramlar üzerinden yorumlanarak, Kalın’ın eleştirilerine farklı bir perspektiften anlamsal olarak katkı sağlanacaktır. Bu bağlamda Kalın’ın merkezinde modern insanın Tanrı’dan bağımsız bir şekilde aklını kullanmaya kalkması ve kendisini dünyanın geri kalanına karşı üstün gören bir varlık olarak düşünmesinin olduğu modernite eleştirilerinin, Bergson’un felsefesi üzerinden yeniden okunması mevcut literatürü zenginleştirmesi açısından önemlidir.

Authors: Tochukwu S Ezeudu , Bilyaminu Tukur
Published: April 2024

This study examines the intricate interplay among poverty, unemployment, education, and rural-urban migration in Nigeria, employing both quantitative and qualitative analyses. Quantitative data were analyzed using SPSS software, computing descriptive and inferential statistics such as regression analysis. Quantitative findings reveal income inequality, with many individuals earning below average. Education emerges as a key determinant of economic opportunities, with higher education associated with better outcomes. Moreover, poverty and unemployment exhibit a strong positive correlation with adverse outcomes, emphasizing the need for targeted interventions. Qualitative insights delve into the motivations behind rural-urban migration, shedding light on the economic drivers compelling individuals to seek opportunities in urban areas. Participants’ narratives uncover the challenges faced by migrants, from housing to accessing essential services. Additionally, the role of remittances in sustaining sending communities is highlighted, underscoring their significance. This study underscores the multidimensionality of poverty, unemployment, and migration and emphasizes the need for holistic, evidence-based approaches to promote inclusive development. Recommendations include investments in education, job creation, social safety nets, income inequality reduction, and support for migrant integration. These measures can contribute to equitable economic growth and improved well-being in Nigeria.
Aksesibilitas Terhadap Informasi Keagamaan Bagi Penyandang Disabilitas Tuna Rungu: Visualisasi Tanda di Lingkungan Pusdai Jawa Barat

Published: April 2024

Human rights law encourages the implementation of state obligations by enacting policies that remove accessibility barriers for persons with disabilities, including a guaranteed access to information. Unfortunately, attention and efforts to facilitate the accessibility of people with deaf disabilities are insufficient, especially regarding religious information. The West Java Islamic Da’wah Center (Pusat Dakwah Islam/Pusdai), as one of the social service units within the local government, barely has a systematic policy basis to facilitate access to religious information, particularly for the “Friday Sermon” for persons with Hard of Hearing (HOH). This article identifies that human rights law can be the underlying basis for the fulfilment of visual communication for persons with HOH. This article discusses a visual design construction that may facilitate communication barriers for deaf-disabled persons in accessing religious information in Pusdai. By employing a socio-legal approach, including visual communication design lens, this study finds a gap in the visual information availability and facility for people with HOH. This study contends that visualization, in the form of moving and static signs, is necessary to facilitate the convenience of persons with HOH and it is seen as an effort to realize inclusive religious services. Such a measure needs to be incorporated into the National Action Plan on Human Rights (RANHAM) in West Java Province.
Re-interpreting the case study approach in architectural research
Authors: Salura Purnama , Clarissa Stephanie
Published: April 2024

The case study is a research approach carried out in a natural, holistic, and in-depth setting about a unique, best practice, and bounded phenomenon. Even though it was rooted in social sciences, the case study has characteristics that are almost the same as a process of studying past architectural works (precedent studies) that have long been carried out in architecture. Unfortunately, precedent studies are sometimes only limited to documentation and descriptions of architectural works as physical objects, without critical, in-depth and holistic analysis of the decisions behind the design decisions of a precedent. On the other hand, previous research that discussed the case study approach in architecture tended to understand this approach as just a social research method that was simply applied in architectural research. Therefore, it is crucial to understand the terms of the 'case' itself. This research aims to provide a complete and in-depth understanding of the case study approach, to filter and elaborate this approach for architectural research. This research examines and elaborates on credible and recent literature on case study, both in social and architectural research. Elaboration from the literature review is used to formulate an operational framework based on architectural function-form-meaning. It is hoped that the results of this research will enrich architectural knowledge. The in-depth understanding is ultimately beneficial for improving existing architectural practices and becoming a source of knowledge for the general public.
SWOT analysis for development strategy for Silamci natural tourism object facilities in Garut
Authors: Sucia Mentari , Belasunda Riska
Published: April 2024

Natural tourism contributes significantly to GDP (gross domestic product) and is a major part of the Indonesian economy. In 2022, Indonesia ranked 32nd in the Travel and Tourism Development Index (TTDI), indicating a 3.6 percent rise in the GDP contribution of tourism. The adoption of the "new normal" during the COVID-19 epidemic led to the emergence of the road trip and micro tourism trends, in which travelers mostly select nearby locations that are accessible by private vehicle. Local visitors play a critical role in fostering the expansion of tourism in many locations. As a possible travel destination in Indonesia, Garut continues to attempt to diversify travel experiences by emphasizing amenities, accessibility, and attractions (3A). The tourist destination Silamci in Garut demonstrates how private ownership may have a big impact on an organization's ability to supply funding, infrastructure, and personnel as well as raise the standard of expert management. The objective of this study is to employ SWOT analysis to evaluate the state of the facilities as they stand and to identify areas for development. Through the results of field observations, interviews, questionnaire distribution, and comparison studies of related research items, qualitative methodologies were employed in the study. It was determined that enhancing the variety of facilities offered frequently constitutes the primary goal of Silamci's innovation development strategy. It is envisaged that enhancing the facilities' quality will serve as the cornerstone for raising Silamci's different values.
The Baron von Münchhausen of British Travel Writers: Edmund Spencer and his Travels in Circassia
Authors: Kumykov Azamat
Published: April 2024

The article is devoted to a critical analysis of the legacy of Edmund Spencer – a nineteenth century British travel writer and author of numerous books and articles on Circassia and the Caucasus. The widespread use of Spencer’s work by historians notwithstanding, until now there has been no published biography of the author, which led to a proliferation of claims about his background and the timing and circumstances of his visit to Circassia. This article contributes to the correction of this omission by presenting the results of the latest biographical research on Edmund Spencer, based on manuscript and printed primary sources. Despite doubts expressed by some historians about the existence of such a person, the article conclusively proves that Edmund Spencer was indeed a real historical personage. Furthermore, since until now no attempt has been made to evaluate the reliability of Spencer’s works on Circassia as historical sources, the article examines references to Spencer in contemporaneous manuscript sources, such as the British, French and Russian diplomatic, military and intelligence correspondence and reports, finding that available documentary evidence refutes the author’s claim of a visit to the interior of Circassia. The attitudes of Western scholars of the period and of foreign visitors to Circassia raise further serious doubts about the authenticity of Spencer’s travelogues. The article calls into question Spencer’s account of his travels in Circassia as a source of geographic, ethnographic and sociological knowledge, concluding that it was a nothing more than a fabrication.
Development of elbow rehabilitation device with iterative learning control and internet of things
Authors: Demirsoy Mert Süleyman , Hamida El Naser Yusuf , Sarıkaya Muhammed Salih , Peker Nur Yasin , Kutlu Mustafa
Published: April 2024

In this study, we present a novel approach for rehabilitation devices through the design of an active elbow joint orthosis, inspired by the fundamental principles of robotic exoskeletons. The device not only enables home-based usage but also facilitates the transmission of exercise data from patients to physiotherapists via the Internet of Things (IoT) device. This approach offers the possibility of increased therapy sessions for each patient while allowing physiotherapists access to data for real-time or subsequent analyses, thereby establishing a database. This permits a single physiotherapist to manage multiple patients more effectively. The developed mobile application within this research incorporates a distinct entry interface for both patients and physiotherapists. Maximum force and position values generated during each exercise period are displayed within the application. The device enables active exercise with a single degree of freedom at the elbow joint and is equipped with force sensors to ensure safety against potential high-shear forces. Furthermore, it can be worn on the upper extremity using adjustable Velcro straps to accommodate users with varying arm circumferences. Specifically, this system amalgamates two primary components: a microcontroller operating control algorithms and IoT technology, and a smartphone application containing interfaces for physiotherapists and users undergoing therapy. The control design of the device employs a P-Type Iterative Learning Control (ILC) due to periodic exercise movements, reducing the error norm by approximately 20% during each exercise period (excluding the initial period). The controller consistently diminishes error values with each iteration, ultimately converging to zero. Throughout an exercise lasting around 3 minutes, the average error norm is recorded as 0.229⁰. In essence, this study presents a pioneering approach that sets itself apart from other research by minimizing shear forces and errors through a specialized controller, all while enabling remote, home-based rehabilitation under expert supervision.

Published: April 2024

يعاني الأشخاص المصابون باضطراب الوسواس القهري  من أفكار تطفلية منتظمة جدًا يمكن أن تسبب القلق وتتداخل مع الحياة اليومية.  يؤدي الارتباط القوي بين الأفكار المتطفلة والسلوكيات القهرية إلى قلق ملحوظ.  قد يقوم الأفراد بسلوكيات أو طقوس متكررة ويصبحون أكثر قلقًا إذا لم يتمكنوا من إكمالها.  وبالتالي، تم تصنيف الوسواس القهري على أنه اضطراب القلق.  ولهذا السبب، ستتتبع الورقة البحثية  الحالية العلاقة المتبادلة بين القلق كمحفز لسلوكيات الوسواس القهري في رواية جون جرين عن السرطان، الخطأ في نجومنا.  يوفر جرين سياقًا أساسيًا لسرد المرض من أجل تسليط الضوء على قضايا مهمة مثل التصوير الدقيق والواقعي للسرطان، وخاصة في التجربة الحياتية للمراهقين.  كما وجدت هذه الدراسة، فإن الشخصيات الرئيسية في الرواية، هيزل  وأغسطس وإسحاق، يشعرون بمشاعر القلق المفرط ويحاولون تحييد مخاوفهم.  يستخدمون العديد من آليات الدفاع مثل التثبيت والتبرير والإنكار والعمل لتهدئة مخاوفهم.

Published: April 2024

This study explored the separate and interacting relations of family (cultural pluralism, promotion of mistrust) and school (equal treatment, intercultural learning) ethnic-racial socialization with cultural (heritage culture and German) identity among adolescents of immigrant descent. Analyses were based on survey data from 311 early to mid-adolescents in Germany (Mage= 13.85, SD = 1.82). Higher family cultural pluralism and intercultural learning at school were related to higher heritage culture identity, while higher equal treatment at school was related to lower heritage culture identity. Higher intercultural learning and equal treatment at school were related to higher German identity. Family promotion of mistrust had no direct relation to heritage culture or German identity. The interaction of family promotion of mistrust and equal treatment at school had relations to heritage culture but not to German identity. These findings expand our understanding of the complementary roles of family and school for supporting cultural identity development.

Vitamin D is an essential, fat-soluble micronutrient that is either naturally present in few foods, added intentionally to some foods or found in dietary supplements. It plays numerous vital roles in the maintenance of the organ systems in the human body, in addition to its known role in bone health maintenance by facilitating the absorption of calcium and phosphorous. Vitamin D deficiency (VDD) has become a major public health concern, particularly in countries undergoing a rapid nutrition transition with a shift in dietary habits and lifestyle, characterized by high consumption of processed foods, and an indoor lifestyle. VDD has shown implications on nutrition and health, including bone health, myopathy, diabetes, depression, as well as implications during pregnancy. The most vulnerable to VDD are infants, pregnant teenagers and women, older adults, people with limited sun exposure, people with darker skin, people with reduced fat absorption, obese people, people who underwent gastric bypass surgeries and vegans. Moreover, not only does VDD have health consequences, but so does excessive levels of vitamin D in the body. In fact, vitamin D toxicity has been associated with hypercalcemia, calcification of soft tissues, fatigue and irritability, irregular heart rhythms, renal failure and in some cases mortality.Although the daily needs of vitamin D can be met by sun exposure, VDD remains prevalent globally. As for the Eastern Mediterranean Region (EMR), and according to the most recent national and regional data, VDD was found to be prevalent, with its prevalence ranging between 8% and 81% among under five children, between 16.2% and 95.5% among women of reproductive age (WRA) and between 13.6% and 93.9% among pregnant women.Globally, the treatment and management of VDD includes promoting a healthy, diverse and nutritious diet; supplementation, after consulting with the physician or healthcare practitioner; ensuring appropriate food fortification; ensuring sufficient sun exposure; providing awareness programs and proper education; involving the food industry at the level of product reformulation; supporting research to assess and oversee the impact of supplementation programs and fortification strategies in practice. While some countries and regions in the EMR, such as Lebanon and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), have developed their own guidelines, the general recommendations for vitamin D in the EMR highlight the following three key points: 1) promoting reasonable sun exposure, encouraging healthy eating habits and enforcing fortification within safe margins; 2) testing for VDD is only recommended for symptomatic individuals and those at risk; and 3) no recommendations are present for population-wide screening for low vitamin D levels.
Adults and children engage in subtle and fine-grained action interpretation and evaluation in moral dilemmas

Understanding the actions of others is fundamental for human social life. It builds on a grasp of the subjective intentionality behind behavior: one action comprises different things simultaneously (e.g., moving their arm, turning on the light) but which of these constitute intentional actions, in contrast to merely foreseen side-effects (e.g., increasing the electricity bill), depends on the description under which the agent represents the acts. She may be acting intentionally only under the description “turning on the light”, but did not turn on the light in order to increase the electricity bill. In preregistered studies (N=620) we asked how adults and children engage in such complex subjective action interpretation and evaluation in moral dilemmas. To capture the deep structure of subjects’ representations of the intentional structures of actions, we derived “act trees” from their response patterns to questions about the acts. Results suggest that people systematically distinguish between intended main and merely foreseen side-effects in their moral and intentionality judgments, even when main and side-effects were closely related and the latter were harmful. Additional experimental conditions suggest that, when given incomplete information, the majority of subjects assume that agents act with beneficial main intentions. This “good intention prior” (Levine, Leslie, et al., 2018) was so strong that participants attributed good intentions even when the harmful action was no longer necessary to resolve the dilemma (Study 2). These methods provide promising new ways to investigate in more subtle and fine-grained ways how reasoners parse, interpret and evaluate complex actions.
Examining associations among caregiver stress, social support, and the infant gut microbiome

Previous research has found links between experiences of early life stress and development of the gut microbiome in humans, and there is a growing body of evidence for associations between caregiver well-being and the infant gut microbiome. Here, we examined how measures of caregiver stress and social support are associated with alpha diversity, beta diversity, and relative abundance of individual taxa of bacteria in the gut microbiome at 12 months of age in a typically-developing, community-based sample of infants (n=34). Caregiver social support was negatively associated with infant alpha diversity, and was associated with abundance of bacteria from several genera. We did not find associations between caregiver perceived stress and markers of infant gut microbiome diversity or composition. Results suggest that greater social support for new parents may be associated with infant health via changes in the diversity and composition of the infant gut microbiome.
Can we Find Evidence for the Null in a Bayesian t-Test? Not Unless we Reconsider Bayes Factor Thresholds

Published: April 2024

Within the fields of behavioural and psychological research, the use of Bayesian statistics has gathered increased interest. A statistical test commonly employed in behavioral and psychological research is the t-test. For the Bayesian t-test, a Bayes Factor (BF) can be computed which reflects evidence in favor of either the alternative hypothesis (H1) or the null hypothesis (H0). Even though the BF is a continuous measure of evidence, it is common to define specific thresholds for accepting the evidence in favor of either the H1 or the H0. Such evidence thresholds (e.g., BF > 3, BF > 6, BF > 10) are adopted by related scientific journals to define minimum publication or preregistration requirements. However, exceeding these thresholds is not analogous when H1 is true compared to when H0 is true. In turn, this disanalogy might require scientists to invest additional time and resources when H0 is true, as opposed to when H1 is true. In this study, we simulated 200 million BFs for various effect size, sample size, and variance assumptions, to demonstrate this disanalogy. Further, we show that despite having small shifts in the sample sizes required for exceeding various BF thresholds when H1 is true, when the H0 is true the probabilities of exceeding a BF > 6 or a BF > 10 are close to chance. As such, we recommend the use of a BF > 3 evidence threshold for the H0 independently of the evidence threshold set for H1.
FUNCTIONAL CHARACTERISTICS OF INTERROGATIVE DISCURSIVE UTTERANCES
Authors: Shynkaruk V
Published: April 2024

The article analyzes the characteristics of discursive utterances with an activated prepositional interrogative component and relates them to grammatical formal elementary (simple) sentences. The findings justify their status as units of text, in which communicative realization of grammatical sentences takes place. Next, the research identifies semantic and syntactic varieties of interrogative discursive utterances, as well as their communicative pragmatic features. Coreference (communicative functional equivalence) with the grammatical sentence is considered to make the basis for identifying discursive utterances as a separate communicative unit. It is argued that in discursive utterances, the following means are used to activate the interrogative component: interrogative intonation, manifested in a rising tone on the word related to the question; word order, mostly involving the movement of the word related to the question to the beginning of the utterance; interrogative particles such as UA невже (EN is it? / isn’t it? / did they? / didn’t they? and the like), UA хіба (EN Are you? / Is it? / Do they? / Will he? etc.), UA чи (EN Are you? / Is it? / Do they? / Will he? etc.), without limitation; interrogative pronominal words such as UA хто who’, UA що what’, UA який what kind of […]’, UA чий whose’, UA котрий which’, UA скільки how many’ / how much’, UA де where’, UA куди where [to]’, UA звідки where [from]’, UA як how’, UA коли when’, UA доки until’, UA чому why’, UA навіщо what … for’, and so forth. It is demonstrated that interrogative intention represents linguistic personality in discursive utterance, meets the speaker's need, and reflects their aspirations, need in discovery, and creativity.
COMPOSITION AND PLOT ORGANIZATION OF COSSACK FANTASY: THE GENRE ASPECT
Authors: Pydiura O
Published: April 2024

Introduction. The article is dedicated to describing the compositional and narrative structure in Cossack fantasy as an essential component of cossackopeia, viewed from a genre perspective. This research also aims to identify the peculiarities of the construction of literary works in this genre and establish algorithms in the narrative used by authors. Due to the insufficient exploration of this topic, the relevance lies in the necessity to uncover the foundations of Cossack fantasy, which will contribute to a deeper understanding of its internal regularities.

Methods. The study employed a range of interdisciplinary methods. Specifically, comparative analysis helped identify commonalities and differences between various works of cossackopeia, while a systematic approach assisted in examining them in the context of general laws of literary form development. Typological research methods allowed for the classification and generalization of diverse genre structures of cossackopeia, including Cossack fantasy as part of the broader corpus, based on their key features and characteristics.

Results and discussion. By its genre nature and the setting of events, Cossack fantasy is intrusive. The peculiarity of the literary genres of cossackopeia lies in the hybridity and mutual penetration of their structural elements. The main dominants of the genre structure of cossackopeia in the realm of the fantastical include synergy between fantasy and historical facts, the conflict between good and evil in trans-worldly boundaries, alternative history, character archetypes, mystification, elements of science fiction, and horror. The genre structure of each work within cossackopeia acquires an individual matrix depending on the writer and their creative concept, yet at the core of each such structure are the same genre elements. Retrospective composition, characteristic of many works of Cossack fantasy, allows for flexible adjustment of the tempo of the plot without overloading it with current events. Cossack fantasy also often employs descriptive composition in the form of Cossack songs or authorial reflections, adding authenticity to the works. The main elements of the plot-compositional structure of Cossack fantasy include exposition, complication, conflict or situation, climax, and denouement. Each of these elements has its peculiarities that affect the content and course of events in works of this genre. Prologues and epilogues may be used to convey important information and provide additional explanations about the world and characters.

In the genres of cossackpeia, in addition to the main plot components, supplementary elements are often utilized for a deeper narrative development. Among them, philosophical digressions hold a special place, expressed through characters' monologues, their reflections, or poetry. Another important element is epigraphs, which are quotations from literary works, poems, or proverbs, emphasizing the main theme of the work and creating a specific atmosphere and mood for the reader.
