Ideen-Maschinen – Klang-Figuren – Bewegungs-Bilder – Sprach-Barrieren. Ebenen poetischer Subjektivität in Texten schreibender Maler (Chirico, Dalí, Giacometti, Miró, Ernst, Duchamp, Picabia, Magritte)
Authors: Wild Gerhard
Published: August 2023

Summary: European painters’ writing activities may be seen as an intent of “heteropoetry” with the aim of revealing aesthetic experience in a linguistic mode that avoids the traditional problem of visual art as representation of external reality. Henceforth, poetry becomes a privileged medium of expression of an imaginary which in Renaissance and Baroque art and literature is centered on the Neo-Platonist concept of “idea” (cf. Panofsky, Hocke). Studying the texts of surrealist painters, four aesthetic levels to perform poetic subjectivity can be detected. At the early beginning of 20th century, the poems of Dalí and Chirico absorb the tradition of inner landscape as a medium to reflect the painter’s perception processes as a manner of scanning older aesthetic and rhetoric features. Along with this concept of lyric texts as mechanisms to reproduce the subject’s imaginary, we find the concept of acoustic sculptures, such as the poems of Giacometti. These are characterized by a highly inventive manner of deforming standard language by means of foreign language structures referring to the poet’s polyglot education. The concept of “moving pictures” which may well be inspired by the ascent of cinematography is to be found in the poetry of Joan Miró. This type of painter’s texts may be described by its pictorial volatility pouring in an imagery which is close to the aesthetic procedures of surrealism such as the cadavre exquis. As a last level of poetic features we analyze are the various types of “linguistic hurdles”, represented by different kinds of puns (Max Ernst, Duchamp), linguistic fragmentation (Picabia) and semiotic meta-reflection (Magritte) which finally deconstruct the old contract between inner vision and outward reality.

El hombre de los ojos y la construcción en espiral: Bigas Luna y su Angustia
Authors: Sanabria Carolina
Published: August 2023

Summary: This article examines in detail one of the least iconic and, probably, lesser-known films – Anguish (1986) – from the most international Catalan director: Bigas Luna. As its title indicates, and contrary to his best-noted productions, it is a film which does not contain elements of an erotic or sensuous sort, but is constructed from a typically American genre – the thriller –. The movie is articulated around an adult dependent on his sinister mother, who drives him hypnotically towards extracting his victims’ eyes in a story which expands into other narrative reflections. Even though it consists of winks to classical artistic references (Hoffman, Man Ray, Velázquez, Wiene), it ends up working as a tribute to the filmography of English master Alfred Hitchcock, and it constitutes a new disquisition on the complexities of the behavior of the specular-turned gaze.

Un cine con acento: Polifonía, multilingüismo y alteridad en el cine de Ventura Pons
Authors: Gimeno Ugalde Esther
Published: August 2023

Summary: Taking as references the polyphony, multilingualism and the ample variety of voices and sounds in the cinema of Ventura Pons, this article aims to study his work from a new perspective enabling us to establish some parallelisms with the “accented cinema” (Naficy, 2001). The aim of this essay is to show how the multiple languages, accents and musics featured in his films become a prolific narrative and aesthetic resource, often linked to the representation of otherness. The analysis of some of Pons’ most recent films, among others Barcelona (un mapa) (2007) and Forasters (2008), will allow us to elucidate the extent to which polyphony constitutes a trademark in his work.

Algunes reflexions sobre la disposició textual d'un cançoner barroc (BLM, ms. 68). Per a una lectora: un llibre-ofrena i un testament literari
Authors: Miralles Eulàlia
Published: August 2023

Summary: The aim of this study is to analyse Francesc Fontanella’s lyrical collection in BLM ms. 68. This testimony contains headings and a manuscript layout by the author, which allows us to understand its poetry in a new way. Divided in several parts, the first one is devoted to drama; the second one follows a chronological layout (on the one hand, poetry made in Barcelona; on the other, poetry written in Perpignan); finally, there is a collection of verse only for Gileta. Fontanella’s manuscript layout in BLM ms. 68 should help us understand the poetic arrangement of other lyrical collections of Catalan baroque and of the Spanish Golden Age poetry.

Comparació interdialectal al segle XIX. Las joyas de la Roser / Les choyes de Roseta
Authors: Martí Mestre Joaquim
Published: August 2023

Summary: The linguistic contrast of Leandre Torromé’s Valencian version (1874) of the play of Frederic Soler Las joyas de Roser (3ª ed. 1872) allows us to carry out a dialectal comparison between the Central Catalan and the Valencian varieties in the second half of the 19th century, from which the interesting variation of the language at that time becomes obvious. We study the most distinguished aspects of morphology, syntax and, especially, the lexicon of both versions, comparing the forms with those of other contemporary and previous texts and dictionaries, and adding comments of interest for the history of the Catalan language, as well as new data that complement and specify the information of the historical dictionaries.

L'adquisició del català en infants portuguesos: un estudi sobre l'ús i el coneixement dels pronoms clítics
Authors: Tarrés Mònica , Bel Aurora
Published: August 2023

Summary: Clitic pronouns represent one of the most idiosyncratic properties of Catalan due to their polymorphism as well as to their syntactic and discursive functions. The participants in this study are 4 L1 Portuguese children learning Catalan and a control group of 6 L1 Catalan children. Both groups are aged between 11 and 12 years and are attending a Primary School in a Catalan immersion context in Andorra. The main objectives are to observe and to analyze the usage and knowledge of the accusative and dative clitic pronouns and those of the adverbial pronouns en and hi, the latter two in their appearance in dislocated constructions. Portuguese has both accusative and dative clitics but, unlike Portuguese, Catalan has obligatory pronouns for location (hi) and a partitive pronoun (en). In Romance languages, focused phrases can move to the right or to the left periphery depending on the speaker’s communicative intention. This structure provides an additional pragmatics-informative value which can contribute to the difficulties in the acquisition of Catalan as a second language by children.

De l'expressió de la percepció sensorial auditiva a l'expressió del discurs reportat. El verb sentir en català medieval (s. XIII-XVI)
Authors: Antolí Martínez Jordi M.
Published: August 2023

Summary: This study analyzes the process of semantic change by which the Old Catalan verb sentir developed from a meaning based on general perception to one implying auditory perception. In particular, the article shows that by the end of the 13th century the verb sentir had only semanticized the perception of non-linguistic auditory stimuli and had not fused completely with the meaning of the verb oir, as was the case with the evolution of SĔNTĪRE in other Romance languages (such as Peninsular Spanish). Our study has been based on data analysis of an electronic linguistic corpus using the concepts of E. C. Traugott’s Invited Inferencing Theory of Semantic Change (IITSC) (2012) and the concept of evidentiality.

The linguistic norm in Northern Catalonia and community members' attitude towards their own language
Authors: Gómez Duran Gemma , Peytaví Deixona Joan
Published: August 2023

Summary: Standard Catalan is based on the Central dialect and, specifically, on Barcelona speech. However, there are standard variants for all dialects, except for the Northern one. Furthermore, the sociolinguistic situation in Northern Catalan differs from that in other Catalan-speaking territories in that the language has almost disappeared. Some cultural activists are still trying to recover the Catalan language by using it in as many situations as possible. The objective of this article is to analyse the variety of Catalan – standard or dialectal forms – used in literature, the media, and education and what this usage demonstrates about Northern Catalans’ attitudes towards their own language. Keywords: Northern Catalan, standard Catalan, sociolinguistics, language attitudes
Anàlisi sociolingüística de l'evolució de la llengua catalana a la Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV)
Authors: Montesinos López Anna I. , Bracho Lapiedra Llum
Published: August 2023

Summary: The situation of the Catalan language in higher education is a significant indicator of its linguistic use in the academic world as well as the students‘ linguistic formation and the graduate students‘ specific communication skills in Catalan. Regardless of what is pointed out in the Law of use of the Valencian language and the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages (point 879), the Universitat Politècnica de València’s linguistic policy regarding the teaching in Valencian and the teaching of Valencian for specific purposes has suffered a drastic reduction compared to previous years; thus it can be asserted that such a language policy is against what is established normatively by a higher stage of proceeding which has outstanding consequences concerning the standardisation of Valencian in higher education.

Les oracions triargumentals causatives dels verbs psicològics catalans d'interès
Authors: Abrines Bartomeu , Royo Carles
Published: August 2023

Summary: This paper analyses simple tri-argumental causative sentences with Catalan psych verbs of interest (aficionar ‘to take up’, apassionar ‘to be passionate about’, entusiasmar ‘to be thrilled’, il∙lusionar ‘to get excited by’, interessar ‘to be interested in’) that do not fulfil Pesetsky’s Target/Subject Matter (T/SM) Restriction (1995): L’Arnau va interessar la Meritxell {en/per} la literatura (‘Arnau interested Meritxell in literature’). They are considered to have a complex bi-clausal argumental structure identical to that of sentences with the causative periphrasis fer ‘make’ + infinitive, but with the verb fer being silent. Both contain a dominant event nucleus vDOP and a defective functional domain (CP, TP and VoiceP) in the infinitive clause. This structure is compared with that of causatives with a subordinate clause introduced with the conjunction que ‘that’, which have a dominant event nucleus vGOP, and a complete functional domain (CP and TP). Lastly, this structure can be given more lexical content to form a periphrasis with a modal verb or equivalent, the structure of which is also analysed, together with that of constructions with other periphrases that have a pronominal psych verb in the subordinate clause. Keywords: Catalan, argumental structure, causative sentence, tri-argumental sentence, psych verb of interest, Target/Subject Matter Restriction

Authors: Oriol Carme
Published: August 2023

Summary: This article studies the interrelationships between folk literature and written literature. The author describes some of the methods that have been used to identify and interpret the presence of folk literature in an author’s work. In this context, the interest that the writer Josep Carner had in popular literature is analyzed. Subsequently, the nine poems that he published in 1904 under the title “Glosas” are discussed. The poems are inspired by well-known folk songs that are used to accompany children’s games. Starting with the first verses of these songs, Carner creates poems where the features of folk literature are combined with those of written literature.

El model lingüístic dels diaris digitals valencians
Authors: Mas-Castells Josep Àngel
Published: August 2023

This article presents the analysis of the linguistic uses of digital media written in Valencian, in the Valencian area, within the framework of standardology; more specifically, a study of the uses of the Valencian linguistic patterns. The first question is whether these patterns are still in use or, on the contrary, are evolving towards a more unitary linguistic pattern, at least in the field of written journalistic communication. Once the persistence of these patterns has been ascertained, despite some changes in the system of stereotypical variants, the plausibility of its relationship with the ideological connotations that have traditionally been associated with each pattern is analyzed. Precisely these connotations should be considered the main cause of the persistence of the Valencian language patterns.
La salud propia: fundamento para el Buen Vivir en los pueblos indígenas del Cauca – Colombia
Authors: Palacios Salazar Luz Angela
Published: August 2023

Los pueblos indígenas del Cauca agrupados en el Consejo Regional Indígena - CRIC, han avanzado en la exigencia del derecho a la salud basados en el consenso de la concepción de salud y buen vivir como el producto del relacionamiento de las personas con la naturaleza (espiritualidad), el territorio, la comunidad y autoridad tradicional. Estos para vivir bien se basan en cuidar la vida, el territorio, los dueños de la naturaleza, buscando la reciprocidad mediante la ofrenda, dar y recibir en la medida de la puesta en práctica de las normas propias y las leyes/palabras de origen que orientan el vivir de la comunidad. Este es el fin último por el que se han forjado las luchas en la exigencia del derecho a la salud, por el reconocimiento de la sociedad colombiana, de la existencia de los otros, el logro del derecho a la diversidad y vivenciar el buen vivir sigue en exigencia y construcción, que se refleja en políticas propias en este caso de salud. El planteamiento de la política de salud para pueblos indígenas es la punta de lanza en el Cauca para avanzar en el logro del buen vivir, partiendo de vivenciar la salud propia como eje de la vida y estableciendo acciones que favorezcan su desarrollo en las familias y comunidades.

Published: August 2023

El objetivo principal está relacionado a la conexión entre los procesos prácticos de gestión con los trámites documentales que se realizan en las universidades públicas de nuestro país. Es evidente que los procesos de gestión son parte esencial de las instituciones públicas, tal como lo establece la Ley para la Modernización del Estado, que son herramientas de gestión que utiliza el Sistema Administrativo para la Actualización de datos e información que permiten planificar, coordinar y gestionar las actividades laborales de una entidad pública. Se empleó una metodología de tipo básica, con perspectiva cualitativa con nivel descriptivo-interpretativo y con planteamiento de la teoría fundamentada. El procedimiento utilizado fue la revisión y recopilación de los antecedentes, que han sido analizados de diferentes documentos científicos. La conclusión relevante en el presente trabajo de revisión sobre los procesos constituye un método de programación estructural de las actividades laborales en las diversas unidades organizativas de las entidades públicas para cumplir con los objetivos institucionales, así como con las necesidades y expectativas del público. Sin embargo, a pesar de estos numerosos avances tecnológicos, las universidades públicas no han logrado crear un hilo conductor integral que permita hacer frente a su débil capacidad de gestión.

Biologic causes of dental implant failures can be divided into Early and Late failures. Early failures are related to inability to achieve osteointegration or loss of osteointegration and are related to poor surgical technique, infection, poor bone density, inadequate bone support, smoking, and impaired host response. Late failures occur after osteointegration is achieved and the implant has been restored, and are related to mechanical complications and Periimplantitis. The goal of this article is to give a review on Late dental implant failures, and report on management of molar implants with late implant failures for two patients.

Oral health is a fundamental aspect of overall well-being, yet millions of people around the world face significant barriers in accessing adequate oral health care. Vulnerable and underserved populations, including low-income individuals, minorities, the elderly, and those with disabilities, are disproportionately affected by oral health disparities. In this article, we will explore the evidence surrounding oral health care for these populations and discuss the importance of addressing these disparities. To address oral health disparities, evidence-based policy recommendations are essential to ensure equitable access to oral health care for all populations.

A pretty smile enhances an individual’s self-confidence. A smile express joy, success, affection and or even say hello and reveals self-confidence and kindness. Gingival melanin pigmentation is one of the factors which determine the smile of an individual. Excessive gingival pigmentation is a major esthetic concern for many individuals. Gingival pigmentation occurs in all races of man and it varies from one race to another. It may vary depending on whether it is physiological or pathological. Melanin pigmentation of the gingiva is completely benign and it does not present a medical problem, complaints of ‘black gums’ are commonly seen in patients having high smile line (gummy smile). Different treatment modalities are reported for depigmentation of gingiva; which includes cryosurgery, electrosurgery, laser and scalpel surgical technique.
Comparison of the Falling Light Experiment and the Ultracentrifuge Gamma Radiation Study
Authors:   Department of C-Mathematics and Natural Sciences, University of Wuppertal, Gaussstr. 20, D-42097 Wuppertal, Germany, Buenker Robert J
Published: August 2023

The discovery of the Mőssbauer effect had a great impact on experimental attempts to study basic open questions in the field of relativity. Pound et al. carried out an experiment to measure the variation of the speed of light with gravitational potential by mounting a gamma ray Mőssbauer emitter on the roof of a building and detecting the radiation at ground level. Hay et al. and others measured the dependence of the frequency of gamma radiation as a function of the speed of an absorber mounted on the rim of an ultracentrifuge. In both cases the theoretical interpretation was based squarely on Einstein’s Equivalence Principle (EP), which assumes that kinetic and gravitational acceleration are basically indistinguishable. In the present study these experimental results are analyzed on the basis of the Uniform Scaling method. It assumes that the units of physical properties vary with both the state of motion and position of the object and observer in a predictable manner. It is pointed out that the properties of light do not change as the radiation descends in a gravitational field, thereby indicating that the local acceleration due to gravity on the photons is equal to zero. This conclusion is supported by the assumption made by Schiff which successfully predicts the angle of displacement of star images observed during solar eclipses. The conclusion for the variation of the frequency of the gamma rays is that it decreases with the rotational speed of the centrifuge, thereby indicating that a blue shift is observed at the rim of the rotor for radiation emitted near the axis. It is pointed out that this result stands in contradiction to Einstein’s Symmetry Principle, which claims that two clocks in motion will both be running slower than one another at the same time.
Experimental HTSC-MAGLEV System and Efficiency Evaluation of a Noncontact Acceleration of IFE Target Placed in a Levitating Carrier
Authors:   P.N. Lebedev Physical Institute of Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, Russia, Aleksandrova Irina
Published: August 2023

Over the last two decades, superconducting materials have undergone an evolution that has broadened its application space. This work focuses on the issue of noncontact acceleration of fusion targets for fueling of a commercial Inertial Fusion Energy (IFE) power plant. This approach attracts a significant interest due to its potential for almost frictionless motion. The operational principle is the magnetic acceleration of the levitating target carrier (or HTSC-sabot) made from high-temperature superconducting tapes of the second generation (2G-HTSC). From physics, the possibility of their practical applications is directly related to the flux pinning of quantized magnetic flux lines in the superconductors (so called, high-pinning, Type-II HTSCs). The article describes the important achievements made in this area: 1) measurements of the magnetic moment of 2G-HTSC tapes (Tc = 92 K) in the wide temperature range of 10–95 K; 2) building a circular PMG system (outer radius is R = 50 mm, В = 0.13−0.25 T) to study magneto-thermo-mechanical interactions between HTSC-sabot and permanent magnets under external variable load with a rate of 2‒5 Hz; 3) studying a static and dynamic stability of the guidance force for a set of different top-down suspended HTSC-sabots; 4) calculation of the HTSC-sabot velocity at which it leaves a circular trajectory at temperatures of ~ 80 K to evaluate its behavior at T ~17 K. The obtained results are in a good agreement that will allow one to estimate the parameters of a circular accelerator of R = 1 m based on HTSC magnetic levitation (HTSC-MAGLEV) transport; the operating temperature is T ~17 K which is characteristic of the target delivery to IFE power plant. The results of this work provide theoretical and experimental support for the practical design and application of such ac-celerator for reaching the target injection velocities in the range of 200−400 m/s.
The Concept of Conservation and Transformation of Energy and Venous Blood Colour: An Invention by Robert Mayer
Authors:   Centro de Filosofia das Ciências da Universidade de Lisboa, Lisbon, Portugal, Rocha-Homem Teresa
Published: August 2023

Robert Mayer, a physician, first put forth the concept of energy transformation and conservation in the nineteenth century. This concept was inspired by a medical observation. The medical community questioned whether Mayer had actually observed what he claimed and used as the foundation for the principle of energy conservation, which is that if the colour of venous blood in the tropics is lighter than in colder regions, then this is a result of a higher oxygen consumption to maintain body temperature. This question was raised during the first century's celebrations. In this research, it is demonstrated that this finding could have actually happened, but for a different cause, based on Mayer's data and current physiology
Hubble’s Constant: The Clock of the Universe

Hubble’s Constant is an experimental relationship between the speeds and separations of galaxies. It is shown that this information can be combined with the results of differential calculus to obtain an estimate of the value of the outward acceleration of each galaxy. On this basis, it is found that the speed of each galaxy increases with time while the corresponding separations from Earth vary as the square of this quantity. This relationship in turn indicates that the value of Hubble’s Constant increases linearly with time, which means that it serves as a clock of the universe. These results are seen to be consistent with the “expanding universe” cosmological theory, but stand in contradiction to Einstein’s supposition that the curvature of space is sufficient to ultimately allow for a slowing down of the expansion and even reverse it if there is sufficient mass for this to occur. Finally, it is shown that when the Laws of Thermodynamics are applied backward in time that the expectation is that state of matter is reached in which the value of the entropy of the universe is zero.

This research was carried out to identify immediate and remote health hazards, including the need for health hazard assessment in the sawmill industry in Enugu State, Nigeria. A quantitative research approach was used and 300 well-structured questionnaires were directly administered to five sections of sawmill workers. Interviews and observational studies were also used to acquire data. The data was analyzed with IBM SPSS Statistics 20 software using basic percentages and inferential statistics from chi-square test analysis. The significance level was set at 0.05. Respondents in this study identified several immediate and remote health hazards, including accidents and injuries, that were linked to the various tasks they do in the sawmill. Machine operators and carpentry/furniture workers, on the other hand, were shown to be more exposed to these hazards. Asthma, dermatitis, sequoiosis, respiratory problems, heart problems, and skin disorders are among the hazards reported. Others included cuts, piercings, crushed injuries, fractures, dislocations, bruises, falls, etc. There was a significant difference in the types of ailments suffered by different categories of workers. The study also found that the total cost of fire-related losses in sawmills between 2004 and 2014 was 4.09 billion Naira. Notwithstanding the hazards and medical concerns indicated by the workers, their use of PPE was unsatisfactory. Occupational safety and health legislation, such as the Occupational Safety and Health Framework Directive, which requires employers to adopt appropriate precautionary measures to make work safer and healthier, should be implemented in all sawmills.

Published: August 2023

The Pre and Post Covid-19 advocacy for greening and safeguarding the integrity of the living planet has found a creative expression in the traditional music of the Jukun. For many decades the indigenous Jukun communities of the Wukari Local Government Area of the Southern region of Taraba State, Nigeria has received a countless number of threat and contention for their cultural and physical space. Even though there are literature on the history of the Jukun and its socio-cultural crisis, there is little or no tangible literature on music engagement in this regard. This study employed the qualitative research method through an ethnographic survey of the deployment of music and its various creative medium in instigating and motivating communal involvement of the people in contending for their cultural and physical space. Textual analysis of the selected song samples is carried out to achieve the aforementioned. Through interviews, observations and literature review, relevant data for the study were gathered, analyzed and presented accordingly.
Optimizing Routing in MANETs with Energy Conservation
Authors: Dattana Vishal , K. Krishna Prasad
Published: August 2023

Context: In Wireless Networks, MANETs can dynamically create a network without relying on a central hub or infrastructure. These features will be helpful for scenarios such as disaster relief or military operations. However, the absence of a central authority presents challenges concerning security and routing, affecting the network's stability and capabilities.
Approach: A proposed scheme incorporates the consideration of the power factor when selecting routes to handle the challenges efficiently. These are integrated with the widely used AODV routing protocol and simulated using the NS-2 simulator. We evaluate the simulated results to determine the impact of the proposed scheme on the network.
Findings: The simulation outcomes demonstrate that the suggested approach significantly improves network performance concerning power consumption and stability. Including the power factor in route selection positively influences the network's capacity to maintain efficient communication and reduce the energy consumed.
Type of paper: Review based Analysis.
