Published: December 2020

Botanic gardens in the Arabian Peninsula and adjacent countries, along with institutions such as museums, universities and research centres, have long played a major role in the exploration, identification and conservation of this region’s flora and vegetation. The primary aim of botanic gardens in the past was to study the plant world from the horticultural point of view and to cultivate plants of economic or medicinal importance. However, at present, particularly in arid regions such as the Arabian Peninsula, the activities of botanic gardens are focused primarily on (i) the study and exploration of the region’s rapidly vanishing flora, thereby safeguarding gene pools of wild species, and (ii) the assessment and preservation of species that may be of importance to humans and animals for food, medicines, fibre and amenity. Recently established botanic gardens in the region, including the proposed King Abdullah International Gardens in Riyadh and Oman Botanic Garden near Muscat, will enhance existing conservation activities concerning the ailing and rapidly vanishing floristic components of the Arabian Peninsula.

The Development of the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh ‘Certificate in Practical Horticulture’
Authors: Morris Leigh , Cohen Laura
Published: December 2020

The Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh (RBGE) has a long history of delivering high-quality practical horticultural training within the UK and abroad. In 2007 this training was formalised by the RBGE Education Department into the ‘RBGE Certificate in Practical Horticulture’ (CPH) programme. The vision for the CPH was to create an internationally recognised and standardised, yet flexible and practical horticultural qualification, predominantly, but not exclusively, for the botanic gardens sector. Providing a measurable educational outcome for international development projects is increasing the contribution that RBGE makes to target 15 of the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation. This paper reviews the development of the CPH programme, through its initial conception, the writing of the first course syllabus, the evolution of the course structure and content, up to the course now being offered today. The initial success of the CPH is discussed, detailing the different locations in which the course has been delivered to date and the other gardens that are now offering the CPH themselves. Recent developments are discussed, including the endorsement of the course by Botanic Gardens Conservation International (BGCI) and the funding awarded by the Stanley Smith (UK) Horticultural Trust in 2010 for course development. The paper ends by highlighting the future objectives for the CPH, including the development of new and improved tutor and learner support materials, the offering of ‘train the trainer’ programmes that will facilitate the wider uptake of these courses and the vision for the programme to become a benchmark for practical horticultural training worldwide.

Kumpula Botanic Garden, Helsinki, Finland
Authors: Schulman Leif , Hallfors Maria
Published: December 2020

Kumpula Botanic Garden was founded in 1987 on the grounds of an old manor estate. The garden is not particularly big but it was designed and subsequently realised with ambitious scientific and educational goals. It is divided into two main parts: the geobotanical garden and the garden of cultivated plants. The plants in the geobotanical garden are grouped according to their origin and are acquired according to rigorous criteria: only wild-collected plants are accepted and the source areas have been chosen on the basis of the Bioclimatic Zone System that Finnish researchers have been developing since the 1930s. The collection is thus exceptionally valuable for research and conservation. It has already been used for statistical tests on the validity of the bioclimatic vegetation scheme on which it is based. The road from an ambitious vision to a plant collection that is of a scientifically high standard yet also aesthetically pleasing has been long and winding. Here the history and design of the garden and the build-up of the plant collection is described, concluding with a brief account of the inauguration for the general public in June 2009.

Living Collection of Flora Graeca Sibthorpiana
Authors: Rhizopoulou Sophia , Lykos Alexander , Delipetrou Pinelopi , Vallianatou Irene
Published: December 2020

The results of a survey of vascular plants illustrated in the 19th-century publication Flora Graeca Sibthorpiana (FGS) and grown in Diomedes Botanic Garden (DBG) in Athens metropolitan area in Greece reveal a total number of 274 taxa belonging to 67 families, using the Raunkiaer system of categorising plants by life form (Raunkiaer, 1934). Therophytes dominate with 36 per cent, while hemicryptophytes, chamephytes and geophytes follow with 16 per cent, 14 per cent and 14 per cent respectively. In terms of life cycle, 60 per cent are perennials, 36 per cent annuals and 4 per cent other growth forms adapted to environmental disturbance. Although anthropogenic pressures and environmental stresses have caused loss of habitat and resulted in profound landscape transformation in the eastern Mediterranean, DBG contributes to the maintenance of approximately one-third of the plants collected in territories of the Levant in 1787. This living collection constitutes an important testimony to the scientific value, heritage and plant diversity described in FGS. Statistics are provided comparing the plants collected and illustrated for FGS and those now growing in DBG.
Passiflora Subgenus Astrophea
Authors: Hilgenhof Rebecca
Published: December 2020

This paper examines an unusual group of Passiflora L., providing an overview of all aspects related to the members of Passiflora subgenus Astrophea (DC.) Mast. It gives an account of their classification, morphology, distribution, habitats and ecology in order to provide a better understanding of the species included in this group. These examinations are factored into the recommendations forsuccessful ex situ cultivation which is generally regarded as difficult. More depth of information on cultivation is provided for the four species most commonly found under cultivation: Passiflora jussieui Feuillet, P. lindeniana Planch. ex Triana & Planch., P. macrophylla Spruce ex Mast. and P. pittieri Mast. Despite the problems these plants present in cultivation they are rewarding additios to any plant collection which in future is likely to be of great importance due to many being threatened in their natural habitats. This project is an extract from the author’s dissertation that was written for the Kew Diploma in Horticulture in 2012.

Encouraging and Enabling a Science-Based Approach to Ecological Restoration
Authors: Shaw Kirsty
Published: December 2020

Botanic gardens harbour many of the skills necessary for undertaking ecological restoration. This includes strong horticultural and taxonomic expertise, seed collection, conservation and propagation skills, the ability to design and lead monitoring programmes, as well as providing training and outreach to the public. This unique set of skills is rarely found within other institutions. Many of the world’s botanic gardens share a common mission: to secure plant diversity, working within the framework of national and international policies. Botanic gardens are therefore not only well-placed to lead ecological restoration initiatives, but it is their goal and responsibility to apply their knowledge, expertise and skills to addressing ecological degradation.

In recognition of this, the Ecological Restoration Alliance of Botanic Gardens (ERA) was formed in 2011, a consortium of botanic gardens applying their skills to lead successful ecological restoration initiatives in diverse habitat and cultural contexts across six continents. The ERA is coordinated by Botanic Gardens Conservation International (BGCI).

This article summarises ERA progress to date, and provides a case study from Kenya, which demonstrates botanic gardens’ ability to undertake ecological restoration and highlights the value of the ERA.
Dancing Butterflies of the East Himalayas

Published: December 2020

The region from eastern Bhutan to Arunachal Pradesh of India and the adjacent south-eastern Tibet and northern Myanmar seems to be one of the last frontiers not only for Meconopsis hunting but also for other botanical exploration. Although there remain political difficulties for foreigners to approach the unsettled border between India and China, including the famous Tsari valley with its prominently rich flora, which was visited by Frank Ludlow, George Sherriff, Frank Kingdon-Ward and a few other plant hunters before 1950, some botanical and horticultural treasures in this region have gradually been revealed to recent travellers. As a result of examining the photographs taken by these travellers and our own botanical field research in eastern Bhutan in 2014, accompaniedby subsequent herbarium studies, two species new to science are described. The first, from eastern Bhutan and adjacent Arunachal Pradesh and Tibet, has long been cultivated under the names M. grandis or M. grandis GS600, and has recently been described as M. grandis subsp. orientalis (Grey-Wilson, 2010). It is the national flower of Bhutan. However, the type of M. grandis from Sikkim belongs to a species quite distinct from the eastern populations and the latter is now described as a new species, Meconopsis gakyidiana. The second novelty, Meconopsis merakensis,is newly described from eastern Bhutan and adjacent Arunachal Pradesh. In the past this species was confused with the closely allied M. prainiana. The two species are isolated geographically, M.prainiana being found only much further to the north-east, in south-eastern Tibet, including theTsari valley. The title of this article is based on a comparison made by Frank Kingdon-Ward of Meconopsis flowers with butterflies in Tibet (see below).
Maintaining and Managing the Diversity of the Living Collection at the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh :
Authors: Garn Tony
Published: December 2020

In a botanic garden it is the record-keeping, the labelling and the facility to trace the lineage of individual plants that sets it apart from other gardens. The Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh (RBGE) has a rich and diverse Living Collection of plants. It is important that visitors, staff and students have access both to the collection and to this information. One definitive way to achieve this is to promote the seasonal interest found in the Collection through images and descriptions. This paper contains a selection of colour images, descriptions and a discourse on the diversity of the Living Collection and its future management. In it, the importance of plants and their place in the institution of RBGE is highlighted and the author looks forward to the changing social, economic, technological and environmental conditions that will affect management’s capacity to develop and maintain the collection as the 21st century advances.
The Art and Science of Planning a Garden's Future
Authors: Ikin Ed
Published: December 2020

Successful long-term plans for gardens require creativity and objectivity and need to include the insight of the horticultural teams caring for them. Garden plans take different forms and there are rival schools of thought about the merits of using external consultants or authoring exclusively in house. This essay makes the case for a ‘third way’, blending the skills of internal and external teams, and shows how the past can inspire the future.

Waiting for the Flowers
Authors: Argent George
Published: December 2020

Since the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh (RBGE) was established in 1670 as a collection of medicinal plants, taxonomy has been at its heart. Even before the publication of Linnaeus’s Species Plantarum it was important to establish the correct identity of medicinal plants for use by the doctors of the day. Over the years the location and focus of the Garden have evolved to serve many and varied functions. Taxonomy, however, has continued to play a key role in preserving the special nature of RBGE as a ‘botanic garden’. From the earliest years exotic plants were introduced to the Garden, giving it an international flavour, and this has continued with staff today collaborating with many different gardens and botanical institutions around the world. For over 300 years living plants have been brought to the Garden, grown to maturity and described. Many of the early novelties came from North America and China, especially gymnosperms and rhododendrons. Today, much of our effort is focused on plants from areas that are botanically rich but poorly known, such as the Malesian region, and on families Begoniaceae, Gesneriaceae, Ericaceae and Zingiberaceae. The expertise and ingenuity of the horticultural staff have been essential in cultivating unknown species and bringing them into flower so that they can be scientifically described. This has been aided by an enlightened policy of including horticulturists on collecting expeditions so that their knowledge can be used to bring plants back in good health but also to better understand the natural conditions in which they grow so that the plants can be grown to perfection in Edinburgh.

Objetivo: Descrever a utilização da abordagem familiar no atendimento à saúde primária. Detalhamento do caso: Trata- se de um relato de caso desenvolvido no âmbito de uma ESF (Estratégia Saúde da Família) de um município de Minas Gerais, sobre a utilização de ferramentas próprias para a Abordagem Familiar: Genograma, F.I.R.O., P.R.A.C.T.I.C.E., Ciclo de Vida e Ecomapa. Entrevistado A.F.S., 53 anos, hígido, casado, desempregado e pai de quatro filhos, o segundo Autista, a quarta portadora de Síndrome de Down e esposa depressiva. Na aplicação das ferramentas nota-se que este é o nono filho de um casal cuja mãe é hígida e o pai é hipertenso. Apesar das dificuldades encontradas nas relações familiares, principalmente com o filho, tem bastante reconforto na religião. Considerações finais: A família é caracterizada por um conjunto de crenças, valores e normas, sendo fundamental que o profissional da saúde a compreenda como um elemento de prática diagnóstica e terapêutica. Sendo sua abordagem durante atendimento médico na atenção primária um aspecto fundamental no entendimento do indivíduo como um todo.  Estudo de Família permite entender a dinâmica familiar, propondo soluções mais aplicáveis a realidade, entretanto, precisa-se de mais estudos dessas ferramentas e mais aderência dos médicos de família e comunidade.

Published: December 2020

Objetivo: Analisar as políticas públicas de transplante implantadas no Brasil, identificando as estratégias que versem sobre o aumento no índice de doadores e os fatores que impedem a doação no Brasil. Revisão Bibliográfica: A política de transplante de órgãos é um avanço considerável em termo de medicina, vez que é uma alternativa terapêutica eficiente, constituindo em muitos casos na última alternativa de melhora ou cura, no tratamento de doenças crônicas incuráveis, constituindo assim, uma melhoria na qualidade de vida do indivíduo, submetido ao transplante. Considerações Finais: O Brasil por meio de políticas públicas, instituiu normativas visando estabelecer o procedimento de doação de órgãos, como o Sistema Nacional de Transplante e a Comissão Intra-Hospitalar de Doação de Órgãos e Tecidos para Transplante, que contribuiu para o aumento no índice de doadores. No entanto, o processo de doação de órgãos ainda é pouco compreendido pela sociedade e pelos profissionais da saúde, em que se constata a necessidade de melhor promover a conscientização através de programas e campanhas  educacionais, visto que existem fatores que impedem o aumento no índice de doadores, como a recusa familiar, a crença na comercialização e a ausência de conhecimento.

Bu çalışmada, sera gazı emisyonlarının dünyada ve Türkiye’deki durumu değerlendirilerek, karayolu yük ve yolcu taşımacılığının söz konusu emisyonlar üzerindeki etkisi ve yıllar itibariyle seyri ortaya konulmuştur. Sonrasında ise daha mikro ölçekte Konya ilinin 2010-2018 dönemi karayolu yük ve yolcu taşımacılığından kaynaklı sera gazı emisyonu IPCC tarafından önerilen hesaplama yöntemlerinden Tier 1 kullanılarak hesaplanmıştır. Söz konusu hesaplama yöntemi için gerekli yakıt tüketim miktarları EPDK tarafından yayınlanan yıllık sektör raporlarından elde edilmiştir. Yapılan hesaplamalar, il bazındaki karayolu yük ve yolcu taşımacılığından kaynaklı sera gazı emisyonunun toplamda 2010 yılından 2018 yılına kadar %87, kişi başına düşen emisyon oranının ise %70 arttığını ve sadece 2014 yılında bir önceki yıla göre azalış, diğer tüm yıllarda ise bir artış olduğunu göstermektedir. Dünya ülkelerinin önceliğine aldığı konuların başında yer alan iklim değişikliği ve küresel ısınma ile mücadele kapsamında, karayolu yük ve yolcu taşımacılığının çevresel etkilerini azaltıcı tedbirler bu çalışmada belirtilmiş ve Konya ilinde bu kapsamda yürütülmekte olan çalışmalara ve önerilere yer verilmiştir.
Characteristic Features of Recreation in Hungarian Protestant Colleges (16‒18.-c.)
Authors: Csorba Dávid
Published: December 2020

The aim of this essay is to find some hints and data about how the meaning of sport was interpreted in conduct books in the early modern Hungarian literature. Here, the attributes of sport are said to further piety in the perspective of regulation: man should not serve God every day through sportive tricks, but through zealous routine of life, as a recreation form of a Christian. The laws of Hungarian Protestant Colleges (17th–19th centuries) include canons for many arts of sport and the conduct book also addresses regular exercises for preaching and praying as if they were acts of recreation.
Encounters Across Borders. Modernist Ideas and Professional Practices in the 1970s Romania
Authors: Mărginean Mara
Published: December 2020

Building on several international professional meetings of architects organized in Romania or abroad, this article details how various modernist principles, traditionally subsumed to Western European culture, were gradually reinterpreted as an object of policy and professional knowledge on urban space in the second and third world countries. The article analyses the dialogue between Romanian architects and their foreign colleagues. It highlights how these conversations adjusted the hierarchies and power relations between states and hegemonic centres of knowledge production. In this sense, it contributes to the recent research on the means by which the "trans- nationalization of expertise" "transformed various (semi)peripheral states into new centres of knowledge and thus outlines a new analytical space where domestic actions of the Romanian state in the area of urban policies are to be analysed not as isolated practices of a totalitarian regime, but as expressions of the entanglements between industrialization models, knowledge flows and models of territoriality that were not only globally relevant, but they also often received specific regional, national and local forms.

Published: December 2020

The use of cell phones has undergone a rapid change and will continue to change. Previously used for voice communication in the 1980s, now mobile phones have various functions so that they are known as smartphones. The various functions of this smartphone are not only used for a positive purpose, but also create new problems, such as cyberbullying. Cyberbullying is a type of social abuse by utilizing electronic gadgets such as smartphones. The growing population of smartphone owners among students raises new problems in the classroom. Misuse of smartphone use, especially in the perspective of cyberbullying, can result in disruption of the quality of learning in the classroom and the academic atmosphere on campus. Compared to traditional bullying, cyberbullying can happen anywhere and anytime. Text, photo or video information used in cyberbullies can be delivered directly to the target person. This research aims to study the factors why students conduct cyberbullying and the effects of cyberbullying. The result of analysis shows enough evidence that there is a misuse in the use of smartphones when in the classroom. Various factors have been identified such as high frequency of smartphone usage which is not related to lessons in class, chatting in social media and bullying for fun or joke. The negative effect of cyberbullying is mostly feel humiliated followed by worried and isolated. The results of this research help higher education institutions to anticipate the impact of smartphone use among students earlier and take appropriate steps or policies to maintain the learning process and quality learning atmosphere.

Authors: Noor Rana Shahzad , Hussain Fiaz , Umair Muhammad
Published: December 2020

Tillage is a critical soil management option that affect many soil physical, chemical and biological properties, which in turn may alter the soil environment and consequently impact on root growth and distribution, and crop yield. This study was carried out to evaluate the long-term effects of different soil tillage systems on some soil physical properties under both irrigated and rainfed wheat productions for nine consecutive wheat seasons (2011-12 and 2019-20) at Koont research farm, PMAS-Arid Agriculture University, Rawalpindi. Four soil tillage systems were performed i.e. conventional tillage system (S1), reduced tillage system-1 (S2), reduced tillage system-2 (S3) and no tillage system (S4). The results showed that soil moisture content measured at both soil depths (0-15 and 15-30 cm) was the maximum in direct sowing (S4) and lowest in conventional soil tillage system (S1). Bulk density and porosity were changes with tillage depth. Among studied tillage systems, bulk density and penetration resistance values were the maximum and porosity was lowest in direct wheat sowing system. Soil particle size distribution was affected by operations and agricultural machinery used in soil tillage systems. The aggregate size smaller than 1 mm showed higher fragmentation (42.25%) in S3. This study showed that soil physical properties were influenced by tillage systems in wheat production under irrigation and rainfed environment. Although the climate of the study area is semi-arid and direct sowing system provide maximum moisture but reduced tillage method can be used for better soil physical properties and highest crop yield.

A review of diving practices and outcomes following the diagnosis of a persistent (patent) foramen ovale in compressed air divers with a documented episode of decompression sickness. Diving and Hyperbaric Medicine. 2020 December 20;50(4):363–369. doi: 10.28920/dhm50.4.363-369. PMID: 33325017.) Introduction: The presence of a persistent (patent) foramen ovale (PFO) increases the risk of decompression sickness (DCS) whilst diving with pressurised air. After the diagnosis of a PFO, divers will be offered a number of options for risk mitigation. The aim of this study was to review the management choices and modifications to diving practices following PFO diagnosis in the era preceding the 2015 joint position statement (JPS) on PFO and diving. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted of divers sourced from both the Alfred Hospital, Melbourne and the Divers Alert Network Asia-Pacific during the period 2005–2015. Divers were contacted via a combination of phone, text, mail and email. Data collected included: diving habits (years, style and depths); DCS symptoms, signs and treatment; return to diving and modifications of dive practices; history of migraine and echocardiography (ECHO) pre- and post-intervention; ECHO technique(s) used, and success or failure of PFO closure (PFOC). Analyses were performed to compare the incidence of DCS pre- and post-PFO diagnosis. Results: Seventy-three divers were interviewed. Sixty-eight of these returned to diving following the diagnosis of PFO. Thirty-eight underwent PFOC and chose to adopt conservative diving practices (CDPs); 15 chose PFOC with no modification to practices; 15 adopted CDPs alone; and five have discontinued diving. The incidence of DCS decreased significantly following PFOC and/or adoption of conservative diving practices. Of interest, migraine with aura resolved in almost all those who underwent PFOC. Conclusions: Many divers had already adopted practices consistent with the 2015 JPS permitting the resumption of scuba diving with a lowering of the incidence of DCS to that of the general diving population. These results support the recommendations of the JPS.

We report the use of this tool during a 12-day dive trip aboard a liveaboard vessel. Methods: Six divers were consistently monitored according to the user manual of the O’Dive system. Data were synchronised with the Azoth server whenever possible (depending on cell phone data signal). Information regarding ease of use, diver acceptance and influence on dive behaviour were recorded. Results: In total, 157 dives were completely monitored over 11 diving days. Formal evaluations were only available after six days because of internet connection problems. Sixty-one dives resulted in the detection of bubbles, mostly in one diver, none of which produced any symptoms of decompression illness. Conclusions: The O’Dive system may contribute to increasing dive safety by making divers immediately aware of the potential consequences of certain types of diving behaviour. It was noted that bubble monitoring either reinforced divers in their safe diving habits or incited them to modify their dive planning. Whether this is a lasting effect is not known.
F.M. DOSTOEVSKII IN THE ARTISTIC CONSCIENCE AND CRITICISM OF V.YA. BRYUSOV

Published: December 2020

The existing research is primarily dedicated to the reflections of motifs and images from Dostoevskii’s works in V.Ya. Bryusov’s art. This article focuses on Bryusov’s direct quotes about Dostoevskii and his art from the pages of his critical works, correspondence and diary entries, which lead the author to the conclusion that Bryusov was not only an attentive reader of Dostoevskii but also a researcher of his work. Unlike other notable authors of the late 19th and early 20th centuries (I.F. Annenskii, D.S. Merezhkovskii, A. Belyi etc.), Bryusov didn’t write a separate article on Dostoevskii, but he planned to write a monograph, a critical work, based on scientific foundations. However, he never finished it. This analysis leads the author to the conclusion that Dostoevskii held a special place in Bryusov’s artistic conscience. For him Dostoevskii’s literary craft was an art of mystery, capable of lifting the veil from the depths of a human soul. Additionally, the study of the features of Dostoevskii’s art became an important factor in the formation of Bryusov’s own poetics and in his approach to the traditions of poetics of the writers of 19th century.

Cocoa is one of the plantation commodities whose role is quite important for the national economy of Indonesia. However, the cocoa industry faces several problems including the various risks involved in the cocoa supply chain. The aim of this study were: 1) Identifying risks in the cocoa supply chain 2) Analyzing the members of the supply chain with the highest risk 3) Evaluating and mitigating cocoa supply chain risks effectively and efficiently. An integrated analytic network process (ANP) and weighted failure mode effect analysis (WFMEA) method will be used to determine and analyze the highest risk in the cocoa supply chain. The results of the priority of the members of the value chain in the cocoa supply chain risk management are SMEs (0.43801), with the risk having the highest priority is production risk (0.29262) as well as alternative strategic priorities namely by increasing income (0.28754). The results of risk control are mainly focused on efforts to increase the income of cocoa farmers by utilizing cocoa processing byproducts such as cocoa bean pulp and cocoa pod husks. The cocoa bean pulp can be processed into nata products and cocoa juice, while the cocoa pod skin can be used as fertilizer.

La violencia escolar es considerada una problemática actual, que puede manifestarse de múltiples formas. Por ello, el objetivo del presente estudio fue analizar la frecuencia con la que el alumnado percibe los diferentes tipos de violencia escolar protagonizada por el alumnado y el profesorado. La muestra estuvo compuesta por 234 alumnos de ESO y Bachillerato, con edades comprendidas entre los 12 y los 18 años. Para el registro de las variables se utilizó el cuestionario CUVE-R. Los resultados mostraron que la disrupción en el aula fue el tipo de violencia escolar percibida en mayor medida por el alumnado, existiendo diferencias significativas entre sexos. El curso con valores superiores de violencia escolar en prácticamente todas las dimensiones fue 3.º de la ESO. Se recomienda implementar programas basados en la resolución de conflictos, los cuales pueden ser claves en la disminución de la percepción de violencia.
THE LANGUAGE AND CULTURAL CONTACTS IN THE 17TH CENTURY AND THE SERMON DISCOURSE OF ANTONII RADYVYLOVSKYI
Authors:   Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Institute of Philology, Nika Oksana
Published: December 2020

The study examines the sermon discourse as a new discourse practice brought about by the language and cultural contacts in the 17th century in the Polish-Lithuanian State. The Polish texts by Piotr Skarga, Tomasz Młodzianowski, Franciczek Dzielowski and others exerted an impact on the lexis, type of text creation, communicative and stylistic features in the Ruthenian sermon in the 17th century. That impact prompted Antonii Radyvylovskyi to employ some Polonisms and Latinisms in diffeent parts of his sermons. The article traces lexical variability and its language and cultural ‘functionali-ty’ in the early book by A. Radyvylovskyi, one of the most famous preachers of the 17th century. The paper compares functioning of Polish and Latin (through Polish transmission) lexemes characterizing the discourse dimension of the 17th century lan-guage and cultural interference in the manuscript, the edited text, and the published book Vinets Khrystov (The Wreath of Christ). The number of such lexemes turns out to be the biggest in the manuscript by A. Radyvylovskyi, which demonstrates the level of language interference in the sermon discourse. The study analyzes the substitutions of Latinisms and Polonisms introduced by the editor of the collection Vinets Khrystov (The Wreath of Christ) who offered his corrections and amendments to the text. The substitutions made by the editor were taken into account in the printed book that was a prerequisite for its appearance in 1688. On the editor’s recommendations found in the manuscript, the published book retained substitutions of some Latin and Polish words with Church Slavonic ones. Such substitutions were caused by the change of the socio-cultural situation in the 1680s; however, those substitutions were just few apparent elements, which, actually, did not change the language of the sermon (kazanie), used in the 17th century. The language and cultural intersections of Polish and Ruthenian preaching practices increased the spatial (the Polish-Lithuanian State) and temporal (17th and 18th centuries) spread of the collection of sermons by Antonii Radyvylovskyi. In the 17th and 18th centuries, his books were actively spread and became popular readings for those speaking the Ruthenian language, which is proven by the availability of his books in the library of the Holy Trinity Monastery in Vilnius, the library of Wroclaw and others.

The article is devoted to one of the areas of military pedagogy – cadet education. It describes the features of forms and methods of educational work in the Petrovsky Poltava Cadet Corps (1840-1919) – the first military educational institution in the Ukrainian provinces of the Russian Empire. The main activities of the Petrovsky Poltava Cadet Corps were: general and special military. General education provided the study of a wide range of subjects (the law of God, Russian language and literature, foreign languages, mathematical sciences, natural history, physics, chemistry, cosmography, geography, history, legislation, drawing, calligraphy), as well as religious, moral, aesthetic, physical, labor education, contributed to the intellectual development of cadets, the formation of honor and dignity, agility and endurance, instilled noble behavior. Pupils were also taught music (music theory, playing musical instruments, choral singing, secular work and spiritual music). Special military (military sciences, military-physical, military-training) was aimed at mastering the basics of military affairs, practical skills and the formation of the strength of spirit necessary for the military to perform its duties to protect the state. In the first twenty years of the institution's activity, the military element was the main one in the training of cadets, and its basis was considered to be military training. It practiced at least 6 hours a week and spent the same amount of time on fencing and gymnastics. The foundations of military affairs were laid during the mastering of courses artillery, fortification, tactics and military topography. The factual material presented in the article proves that the forms (lessons, additional classes, subject groups, independent work, control test, exams, excursions, stay in the summer camp) and methods of educational work in the Petrovsky Poltava Cadet Corps contributed to the formation of a comprehensively developed personality of the cadet, devoted to military affairs and the state. One of the methods of education in the Petrovsky Poltava Cadet Corps was the method of training. The implementation of this method primarily contributed to the formation and rooting in the cadets of one of the most important in their future work traits such as discipline. Cadets were also taught to read (independent and group). It included: conversations, reading of works of classics, pedagogical situations, educational reading of periodicals with the subsequent discussion. The functioning of cadet corps and lyceums with enhanced physical training in modern Ukraine, based on the principles of cadet education, is the basic basis for the formation of highly qualified officers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Thus, recourse to the experience of military pedagogy is relevant.
