A Short Study on the Metaphorical Identity of Clones in Never Let Me Go: A Case Study of Chapter 5
Authors: Zhao Xiaoran , Zhong Jingdong
Published: May 2024

Cloning has a huge ethical controversy in the real society. That is also the big concern of  the novel Never Let Me Go (2005) by Japanese British writer  Kazuo Ishiguro (1954— ). On the surface of the novel, by showing the tragic fate of cloned human beings under the oppression of human society, it reflects the values of human beings thinking about whether to carry out cloning technology. Behind it, Ishiguro expresses his concerns about humanity through the consciousness and life of a cloned human, as well as the inner emotions of a normal human, including one’s social and cultural identity.  Taking chapter 5 as a case, this study discusses the metaphorical identity of clones. The study confirms that by describing the injustice suffered by clones Ishiguro portrays them as a special group that is difficult to survive in real life with a real human identity, and points out that such struggles and battles are too numerous to enumerate, and the more you can see the helplessness and sadness living at the bottom.

Published: May 2024

A numerous security vulnerabilities have emerged within the PK system. For example, a compromised CA can issue illegal or fake certificates for any domains, and a CA can issue unauthorized certificates without the consent of the domain owner. In addition, some high-value target domains, such as bank and government agencies may have been frequently attacked, and the adversaries can launch the targeted attacks by making use of the disclosure of the issuing CAs. To address these pressing issues or challenges, in this work, we propose a novel blockchain-based PKI framework using linkable ring signatures, called LRS_PKI. Specially, we propose a novel certificate issuance mechanism that utilizes linkable ring signatures to hide the issuing CA, so as to reduce the risk of the PKI system being attacked. Additionally, we introduce the blockchain as a public log to record the certificate operations, and adopt the decentralized storage IPFS to store the certificates to decouple the blockchain layer and storage layer. In order to prevent the CA from issuing unauthorized certificates, we have added a condition to verify whether the issuing CA in the certificate verification.

In this study, we employ the Naive Bayes algorithm and the Holistic Approach, two powerful tools in the field of data analysis, to forecast student academic performance at Otista Bandung Vocational School. The Naive Bayes algorithm allows us to make predictions based on the probability of an event occurring given certain conditions, while the Holistic Approach ensures that we consider all relevant factors in our analysis. This research aims to offer early forecasts for students who are susceptible to low academic performance, enabling schools to proactively intervene and avert a fall in student success. By implementing this approach, schools may offer targeted support to individuals requiring more help, while also fostering an inclusive environment that promotes academic success for all students, regardless of their circumstances.
P4C'ye Farklı Yaklaşımlar
Authors: Şahinkaya Aslı
Published: May 2024

P4C, çocukların felsefe yapabileceğini varsayarak oluşturulan felsefi yaklaşım ve pedagojidir. Dewey’nin felsefesinden ve eğitim anlayışından etkilenen Matthew Lipman, P4C’nin kurucusu kabul edilir. Topluluklarda çocuklar felsefe aracılığıyla eleştirel, özenli, iş birliğine dayalı ve yaratıcı düşünmeyi öğrenerek demokratik toplumun geleceğine bir teminat oluştururlar. Dünyanın pek çok yerinden düşünür ve uygulayıcı, Lipman’ın P4C yöntemini eleştirmiş ve geliştirmiştir. Eleştiriler, çocukluğun, eğitimin ve felsefenin farklı yaklaşımlarını içerir. Örneğin Gareth B. Matthews bir çocukluk felsefesi önerir ve bu yaklaşım çocuklar için felsefeden (P4C) farklıdır. Catherine McCall çocukların kaç yaşında felsefe yapabileceklerini tartışmıştır. Kimi düşünürler farklı felsefi arka planlardan yararlanmışlar, uygulamalardaki materyal farklılıklarıyla Lipman’ın P4C uygulamasını önemli ölçüde değiştirmişlerdir. P4C içinde ikinci kuşak olarak adlandırılan PwC (philosophy with children, çocuklarla felsefe) düşünürleri ve kolaylaştırıcıları, politik felsefi kabullerde Lipman’dan farklı düşünmektedir. Onlara göre Lipman düşünmede iş birliği vurgusu ve kazanımına yeterince ağırlık vermemiştir. Diğer yandan P4C’nin bir araç haline gelip gelmediği tartışılmıştır. Lipman’ın Amerikan demokrasisini tesis etmek için felsefeyi ideolojikleştirmiş olabileceği sorgulanmıştır. Bu çalışmada, P4C’nin ne olduğu açıklanacak, onu kullanan ve dönüştüren kimi düşünürlerin eleştirileri ve önerileri, pragmatik felsefe ve kıta felsefesi, eleştirel eğitim felsefesi veya pedagojisi, postmodern felsefe ve insan sonrası felsefe odaklarıyla sunulacaktır.
Duygu Asena’nın "Kadının Adı Yok" Romanında Sindirella ve Narkissos Kompleksi
Authors: Aydın Seher , Akça Hilal
Published: May 2024

Bireyin dünyadaki serüveni başladığından bu zamana var olan mitler, kişinin psikolojisini ve çıkmazlarını anlamak için başvurulan kaynaklardır. Mitler, kişinin hem gerçek hem de ruhsal yolculuğuna ışık tutar. Mitleri dış dünyadan iç dünyaya doğru takip etmek kişiyi psikolojiyle buluşturur. Psikoloji literatürüne giren birçok kompleks, mitolojiden doğar. Bu bağlamda psikoloji ve mitolojinin birleşiminden oluşan, mitlerin psikodinamik yöntemlerle incelenmesi sonucunda ortaya çıkan psikomitoloji bilimi de bu düşünceyi savunur niteliktedir. Psikomitoloji, bireyin ruhsal yönünü mitik öykülerle açıklayan, insanın öyküsünü arkaik insandan modern insana kadar getiren disiplinler arası bir çalışma alanıdır. Psikomitoloji, mitlere amaç, kök, neden, konu açısından yaklaşır. Buna ek olarak psikomitolojik çözümleme yöntemi olan psikanalitik uygulama psikomitolojinin alt dalıdır. Kahramanın öyküsünü, öyküdeki yerini inceler ve edebiyat, tarih, sosyoloji, biyoloji gibi alanlarla ortak çalışarak ‘ruhun öykübilimini’ oluşturur. Bu çalışmada da 1990’lı yılların siyasî-sosyal ve edebî hayatında kendini gösteren Duygu Asena’nın Kadının Adı Yok romanında psikomitoloji incelemesi yapılacaktır. Çalışmanın genel amacı Kadının Adı Yok romanındaki kahramanları psikolojik yönden tahlil etmektir. Bu tahlil yapılırken geleneksel tahlil metodunu kullanmak yerine temelini mitolojik öykülerden alan komplekslerden faydalanılacaktır. Bu sayede şahıs kadrosu tahliline yeni bir bakış açısı getirileceği, psikomitoloji alanına dikkat çekileceği varsayılmaktadır.
Sosyalleşme ve Bireyselleşme Geriliminde Dolaşmak: Rorty’nin Eğitim Anlayışı Üzerine
Authors: Selim Ferdi
Published: May 2024

Radikal bir postmodernist olarak tanınan Rorty, modern felsefenin mutlak ilkelerini bir kenara bırakma konusunda oldukça isteklidir. Bireyler ve onların eğitimleri söz konusu olduğunda da bu böyledir. Bu nedenle eğitim fikri hakikat iddialarına yönelik itirazlarıyla yakından bağlantılıdır. Benliklerinin olumsallığının farkında olan bireyler için eğitim önerisi kullanışlı dil oyunları yaratmaktır. Kendini geliştirmek olarak adlandırılan bu tür eğitim iki basamaktan oluşmaktadır. Üniversiteye kadar olan aşaması bilgi yığma ve sözcük dağarlarının ortak ürünü olan kültürlerle tanışmakken üniversite basamağı insanlığın ortak kültüründe metaforlarla yeni olanaklar yaratmaktır. Bu görüş, Rorty’nin Postmodern Burjuva Liberalizmi’nde ideal birey tipi olan liberal ironist varsayımıyla da uyumludur. Bu perspektiften bu çalışmada Rorty’nin felsefi görüş ve özellikle eğitimle ilgili düşünceleriyle nerede konumlandığı tespit edilmek istenmiştir. Ardından sosyalleşme ve bireyselleşme olarak iki sahaya yayılan eğitim felsefesi politik görüşleri de göz ardı edilmeden tartışmaya açılmıştır. Bu yanıyla Rorty’nin görüşlerinin ciddi eleştiriler aldığı bilinmektedir. Bu nedenle ilgili eleştiriler de çalışma içerisinde tartışılmak istenmiştir. Nihayet çağı anlamak bakımından önemli olan bu düşüncenin umut veren yönlerinden söz edilmiştir.
The Communicability of Pleasure and the Pleasure of Communication: the ‘Obligation’ of Aesthetic Feeling in the Critique of the Power of Judgment
Authors: Gürsoy Ali Özgür
Published: May 2024

Kant makes a puzzling claim in the Critique of the Power of Judgment concerning the connection between the feeling of pleasure occasioned by the appreciation of an object as beautiful and the universal communicability of this aesthetic feeling: on the one hand, he claims that this feeling is due to the free play of the faculties of imagination and understanding, and on the other hand, that it has its ground in the very communicability of this pleasure. The central argument of the present study is that it is possible to clarify the relation between the feeling of pleasure occasioned by the reflective judging of an object and the universal communicability Kant attributes to such a judging by grasping the demand for a ‘universality without concept’ claimed by a pure judgment of taste in terms of what appears to be a problematic relationship of grounding between the shareability of pure aesthetic feeling and the reflective activity of the mind. I will claim that this relationship can be rendered clearer by an explication of the ‘share’ of disinterestedness, purposiveness, and subjective universal validity claims in pure judgments of taste and brought together in the notion of a common sense (sensus communis). What thereby comes into view is an original orientation in the world that is presupposed by explicitly theoretical and practical judgments.
Leyla Erbil’in Eski Sevgili İsimli Eserinde Yetersiz Kendilik Bilgisinin Tezahürü Olarak Kişinin Hakikatinden Kaçma Durumu
Authors: Öcal Oğuz
Published: May 2024

Leyla Erbil’in Eski Sevgili isimli eseri, yetersiz kendilik bilgisinin neden olduğu hakikatten kaçış durumunu, asıl kişi Nigâr’ın şahsında ve onun kritik durumlarda yaptığı seçimlerle görünüşe çıkaran bir romandır. Kırklı yaşlarında olan Nigâr, annesiyle yaşayan bir memur emeklisidir. O, ilk gençlik yıllarından beri sosyalist örgütlere sempati duymakta ve onların arasına katılarak kurulu düzene karşı mücadele etmek istemektedir. Bunun için de birkaç girişimde bulunur. Ancak başvurduğu örgütler, görüşlerinin billurlaşmamış olmasını gerekçe göstererek onu aralarına almazlar. Birileri tarafından kurtarılmayı ve kabullenilmeyi bekleyen Nigâr ise bunun üzerine, hayal kırıklığına uğrar ve kırgın bir hâlde iken zamanının çoğunu farklı meyhanelerde içerek geçirir. O, hem bir bekleyen hem de içinde olduğu bu durumun farkında olmayan birisi olarak yirmi yıl içinde, beş defa kendisiyle karşılaşır, beş defa değişme ve dönüşme olanağı bulur. Ancak kendilik bilgisi yetersiz olduğu için açılan olanaklar arasından özerk olmayı değil, başkalarına bağlı kalmayı veya kendisinden kaçmayı seçer. Yetersiz kendilik bilgisi, içinde olunan ancak farkında olunmayan bir durum olarak insanın yabancılaşmasına ve kendi hakikatinden uzaklaşmasına neden olur. Bu yazıda Nigâr’ın birer kaçışı içeren seçimlerini belirleyen esas unsurun eksik veya yetersiz durumda olan kendilik bilgisi olduğu iddia edilmiştir.
