Legal standards as a basis of religious interaction (On the example of the Book of Leviticus)
Authors:   Tver State Technical University, Vorobyeva Svetlana N.
Published: March 2022

The present work is related to such studies, the subject of which is the interaction of various institutional types of discourses. This article will focus on the biblical discourse, which, compared with the legal discourse, is considered by the author as a special type of interaction of believers based on legal norms. A special study of this issue is of undoubted scientific interest, because addressing this problem is important not only for the study of biblical discourse, which, unfortunately, is currently understudied. The fact is that many issues have not yet received proper coverage, for example, there is not enough information about what place a particular discourse occupies among other discourses, what specific features it possesses. Addressing specifically biblical and legal discourses is predetermined by the existence of an ontological connection between them. The study shows that the discourses’ points of contact are legal norms, which are an obvious significant structural component of interaction. The author primarily focuses on the structure of the legal norm and its functioning in the communicative process. Analyzing the biblical material, the author of the article comes to the conclusion that the legal norm: has a clear internal structure; is a convincing way of conveying necessary information; acts as a strategic tool that is used to express a communicative goal related to the correction of human behavior; in biblical communication, it is used by God as a means of influencing the interlocutor. The material for the study was the Book of Leviticus – a kind of legislative collection of rules, which served as the basis for the legal interaction of man and God. The results of the study are important for the understanding of the essence of biblical communication, for obtaining an objective idea of the process of biblical communication.
The Cologne dialect: Development trends
Authors:   Irkutsk National Research Technical University, Mokrova Natalia I.
Published: March 2022

The article studies the Cologne dialect in the process of its historical development. The current state of the dialect is notable for a wide and in different ways varied range of regional, social, functional and stylistic layers (levels) in close coordination with one another. Notably, this system is not stable, it constantly changes under the influence of the social, technical, cultural, historical and other factors. The research on language change often disregards the dialect material featuring prominently in the historical context of linguistics. The article focuses on the changes in the Cologne dialect which have taken place in the last decades. The research is based on dialect songs of carnival performers in the Cologne dialect. This dialect, spoken in the city and surrounding areas, is much more than a language variety. It has close associations with cultural events and especially with the carnival. The song texts in Cologne dialect of two carnival exponents are used as the practical material for the study and comparison of the most characteristic phonetic and grammatical properties of the Cologne dialect. In the course of their linguistic analysis from the beginning of the 20th century up to now, it has been determined that the Cologne dialect has undergone some changes; however, there is no clear trend towards moving closer to the standard German. The conclusions offer an insight into the current state of the regional language variant and the relationships between the dialect and the standard German language.
The plot of the arrival of the landowner in the village in A. F. Pisemsky’s novel The Troubled Sea: Literary sources
Authors:   Novosibirsk State Pedagogical University, Ponomareva Anastasiya A.
Published: March 2022

The article studies literary sources of the plot about the arrival of a landowner in the village, presented in A. F. Pisemsky’s novel The Troubled Sea (1863). The paper reveals that the model of this plot was formed in the stories of the pre-reform period, i.e. at the turn of the 1850s– 1860s. Especially often stories with this plot were published in M. N. Katkov’s magazine Russkiy Vestnik (The Russian Bulletin). The main feature distinguishing this plot is the image of a landowner coming to the village. It was found that his description was stereotypical: the youthfulness and progressiveness of the hero’s views were invariably emphasized. In the stories of this time, the conflict arises between a young progressive landowner and a representative of the older generation (father / neighbor / an elderly servant, etc.). Also, an obligatory element of the plot in question is the reorganization of the economy with a modern twist by the recently arrived landowner. The main motive associated with the reconstruction is the total destruction of everything considered old. The paper shows that attempts to rebuild the economy have always been unsuccessful and led to serious dramatic or tragic results. In the post-reform period, the plot associated with the arrival of the landowner in the village became a ‘derivative semantisation’: it adapted to the new relevant tasks that became the focus of attention after the peasant reform. The paper analyzes in detail the variant given in the story of A.V. Druzhinin Last Summer in the Village (1862). It is shown that the novel The Troubled Sea contains a large number of references to this particular variant. In the course of the comparative analysis of these works, it is concluded that Pisemsky argued with Druzhinin on some issues related to the peasant reform and its results. In conclusion, it is inferred that the plot of the landowner’s arrival in the village in the novel The Troubled Sea was obviously guided by the stories in Russkiy Vestnik. Pisemsky shared the view of Katkovsky’s edition in interpreting the behavior model of the landowner, who began to reorganize the life of peasants under the influence of democratic literature.

Authors:   Saratov State Law Academy, Pyrkov Ivan V.
Published: March 2022

The article analyzes the work of the understudied writer of the 19th century, Korneliy Vladislavovich Thorzhevsky, in particular, the poetics of the author’s unique colorful sketches from military life, short stories, novellas, essays is considered on the example of the story The Non-Hunters on a Hunt. The aim of the research is to find an answer to the question about the place of the writer K. V. Tkhorzhevsky in the literary process, about the peculiarities of his author’s style, the originality of the poetics of his artistic heritage. Special attention is paid to landscape characteristics, portraits, author’s irony, intonational multidimensionality and linguistic plasticity of the writer. In the course of research, it was revealed that the works of K. V. Thorzhevsky, still little known to the general reader and not being the subject of special research by philologists, have a number of obvious artistic merits, largely reflecting the special features of ‘fishing’ and ‘hunting’ prose; the first writers to introduce this prose were S. T. Aksakov, L. P. Sabaneev, etc. The novel The Non-Hunters on a Hunt, based on impressions from the military life, fully reveals the creative potential of the writer: the author appears as an observant person who knows and loves local nature, who is sensitive to psychological nuances when describing human characters. The author’s voice, sounding in an ironic tone, is not without soft lyrical notes, which is fundamentally important for the reception of the literary heritage of the vivid master of ‘hiking prose’. The analysis of the creative method of the writer, correlating with the facts of his biography, allows us to conclude that it is expedient to republish the best works of K. V. Thorzhevsky.
Motive of the music of the moon in the poetry by K. D. Balmont
Authors:   Siberian Transport University, Mamatov Gleb M.
Published: March 2022

In the article the motive of the music of the moon in K. D. Balmont’s poetry is researched on the material of his poems, prose and aesthetic articles. Its symbolic value and evolution in books of the early, mature and late periods are explored. The following conclusions are drawn. In the early lyric poetry of Balmont the moon is associated with the oxymoronic motive of the ‘sounding silence’. This motive is determined by the principal role of psychologism in the early poems of the symbolist, the ‘sounding silence’ emphasizes the state of the inner world of the hero, who is always detached from reality and is reflecting on the essence of life and death. The connection of the motive of the ‘sounding silence’ with gothic symbolic range is considered, which is characteristic for the first books by Balmont. In his mature lyrical poetry, the moon is associated with the theme of music, which has a lot of connotations. Firstly, the music of the moon correlates with the traditional motives of poetry and art. In the book Let’s be Like the Sun the world is on the line between lunar silence and melody of strings, which the poet uses to play his odes to the orb of the night. But in mature poetry in the books Only Love. Seven-color Flower, Liturgy of the Beauty. Hymns of the Elements and Sonnets of Sun, Honey and Moon. The song of worlds lunar music is connected with themes of fairy tale, magic, love, dream and phantasy, but at the same time with motives of the illusion, unfeasible reveries, death, specularity and ghostliness. Particular attention is paid to the connection between the motive of lunar music and the philosophy of music of the senior symbolist and his spontaneous mythology. No less important is the functioning of this motive in the poem The Moon, dedicated to the cosmogonic myth of the creation of the world, where moon music is related to the themes of archaic mythology and the motives of initiation, death, rebirth and transformation into a deity.
Specific features of implementing the system of oppositions of landscape imagery in the stories about childhood by I. S. Shmelev 1906–1912
Authors:   Branch of the Northern (Arctic) Federal University named after M. V. Lomonosov in Severodvinsk, Shestakova Elena Yu.
Published: March 2022

This article examines the features of how the system of semantic oppositions of landscape images is objectified in the stories about childhood by the writer of the Russian expatriate community Ivan Sergeevich Shmelev, created in 1906-1912. The research material constitutes the works The Sergeant, On Urgent Business, One Night, Gingerbread (the Doctor’s Story), Festive Heroes, Stars, Timid Silence, related to the pre-emigration period of the author’s ouevre. The aim of the work is to consider the artistic principle of antinomy, actualizing a wide range of images, including images of ‘happy childhood’, mellow autumn, night landscape, idyllic summer panoramic landscape, autumn melancholy landscape, ‘sacred’ landscape, spilt innocent blood. All together, they recreate a rich motivic spectrum containing motifs of abundance, spaciousness, peace, blissful silence, contrasted with a dead, graceless silence. The theme of the rebellious revolutionary city in the stories is interspersed with the theme of harmonious unity, opposing the discordant life of man and nature, as well as the themes of death, unjust murder and human cruelty. In the works of I. S. Shmelev, the theme of the unity of children and nature is closely connected with the poetization of the Russian landscape, paintings-images of a rapid children’s run, combined with aerial imagery and the theme of human talent, bestowed by God. In the structure of the artistic space of the stories, a contrasting idea of the ‘inner’ fertile home space filled with children’s light, warmth, love, and the ‘outer’ cold, dark space bearing torment and death is realized. Biblical allusions, closely related to the images of stars, among which the image of the Christmas Star stands out, and the Christmas chronotope, are associated with the meaning of the higher, spiritual sphere and the theme of death.
The place of landscape in the narrative structure of Kryukov’s works
Authors:   Lomonosov Moscow State University, Han Gao , Solntseva Natalia M. ,   Lomonosov Moscow State University
Published: March 2022

The purpose of the article is to analyze the main functions of the landscape in the works of F. Kryukov. Nature in his narrative system acts as an independent object of portrayal and a toolkit for description, as the place of the character’s residence and the contemplated landscape, as an integral picture and a set of contrasting elements. The emphasis is placed on the narrative role of the landscape in the development of the author’s point of view, the structuring of the artistic space, and plot formation. Through the landscape in the novels and short stories of Kryukov, preceding the prose of M. Sholokhov, the organic essence of the Don Cossacks’ way of life, their perception of the world, characters, life, the search for new opportunities for the development of living space, the specificity of the aesthetic reflection are depicted. Nature is perceived by Kryukov as part of the picture of the world. The emphasis is made on the correspondence of the psychological states of the characters and the states of nature, the role of images of the natural world in disclosing social problems and family plots is revealed, axiological dominants in the symbolic and philosophical content of landscapes are noted, their role in the depiction of vital and mortal meanings of life is determined. The article discusses Kryukov’s description of the grave topos as a continuation of the literary tradition. A statement about the priority of the organic state of the world in Kryukov’s worldview values is put forward. The landscape in the works of Kryukov is directly related to the characteristics of the idiostyle. Particular attention is paid to the principles of depicting nature. Constant images of the landscape (steppe, the Don, forest, sky) are named, their subjective perception by the heroes and the author is noted, which brings the mythopoetic aspect to the realistic depiction of the landscape. Conclusions are drawn on the preference of a panoramic landscape to a close-up while preserving the role of detail, the combination of vertical and horizontal coordinates in nature pictures, the significance of binary characteristics in depicting the integrity of nature, the frequency of perception of the landscape in perspective, the influence of nature pictures on the pace of narration, the semantics of color, the place of direct author’s comments.

Intervention Effect of Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy on Diabetes-Related Distress and Self-Care
Authors: Bao Huilan
Published: March 2022

Background: Diabetes-related distress (DD) will seriously affect the therapeutic effect of diabetes and the physical and mental health of patients if an intervention treatment is not well implemented. We aimed to explore the effect of mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) on the DD level and self-care capability of patients with diabetes.
Method: Sixty-eight patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) were selected from the Department of Endocrinology in Jinhua People’s Hospital, China and divided into control (CG) and intervention (IG) groups. Routine diabetes health education (RDHE) was only carried out in the CG, whereas the RDHE and MBCT were provided to the IG. Repeated ANOVA measurements were adopted to investigate the intergroup differences of these two intervention therapies on improving the DD and self-care capability of patients with diabetes.
Results: RDHE and MBCT could relieve the DD level of patients with diabetes, but the DD value in IG was lower than that in CG. In comparison with RDHE, MBCT and RDHE could significantly improve the diet and exercise dimensions of patients, and such improvement effects were significantly sustaining (P<0.05). MBCT and RDHE exerted better effects than RDHE alone on blood glucose testing, foot care, and medication intake. However, these effects were not sustaining.
Conclusion: The care and medication guide provided by MBCT consultants and medical staff can significantly relieve the patients’ DD and enhance their self-care capability. As a low-cost psychological intervention therapy with good sustaining effects, MBCT is important to strengthen the therapeutic effect on diabetes and lowering the medical cost.

Published: March 2022

Background: The effect of related factors on recovery or death rates may vary from country to country. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the relationship between demographic, clinical, laboratory factors on the survival rates of confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Shahroud, Iran.
Methods: This is an analytical study of the estimation of the survival of patients with COVID-19. Patients who had positive PCR test were considered as COVID-19 cases, and the 2-month survival of these patients was estimated. Among the diseases, heart disease and diabetes were considered as separate variables, and the patients' histories of other diseases were included in the model as comorbidities.
Results: Of 396 confirmed patients hospitalized, 109 patients (27.5%) had a history of heart disease, 100 (25.3%) were diabetic, and 80 (20.2%) had a history of other comorbidities. The number of deaths due to the disease was 59 (14.9%). The median age of those who died was 76 years. The multivariate Cox regression analysis shows that heart disease increases hazard ratio more than two times (HR=2.37, 95% CI: 1.33-4.23). The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) factor, (HR=1.15, 95% 1.08-1.22), and older age (HR=1.06, 95% CI: 1.03-1.08) increases the risk of death significantly.
Conclusion: The heart disease history, NLR factor and older age are associated with death of COVID-19 and may be helpful for the early warning and prediction of disease progression.

Authors: Bagherian Sajad , Ghasempoor Khodayar , Baker Julien S , Mashhadi Mohammad
Published: March 2022

Background: We aimed to investigate school-aged students' physical activity behaviors and overweight status during the COVID-19 quarantine.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, an online questionnaire was utilized to measure participants' physical activity behavior and overweight status during the COVID-19 quarantine in Iran (May of 2021). Participants self-reported their physical activity levels, types, amounts and locations, as well as whether or not they became overweight. The chi-square test was used to determine the differences in the distribution of the participant responses. The statistical significance level was set at P<0.05.
Results: The questionnaire was completed by 43,660 school-aged students (15,532 boys and 28,128 girls). The age, weight, and height ranges were 8–17 yr, 18–144 kg, and 75–198 cm respectively. Half of the students reported changes in their body weight and became overweight during the COVID-19 pandemic (χ2=25514.4; P=0.001). Forty-one percent reported doing very little or no physical activity, 32% of students reported doing less than one hour of exercise per day (χ2=8547.7; P=0.001). The majority of students (72%) reported participating in physical activity at home (χ2=78851.2; P=0.001). Flexibility was the main kind of exercise performed, followed by walking or running, during the COVID-19 pandemic (χ2=24328.9; P=0.001).
Conclusion: During the COVID-19 pandemic, half of the students became overweight, and the majority did not engage in regular physical activity. These findings can help guide efforts to protect and promote children's health during the COVID-19 outbreak, as well as influence policies to reduce the risk of future pandemics.

Published: March 2022

Background: We aimed to compare semi-nested PCR with indirect ELISA to diagnose human fasciolosis.
Methods: Overall, 70 serum samples were collected from different areas in Iran suspected for fascioliasis. Individuals were classified based on diagnostic of fascioliasis and habitat in endemic areas. Finally, all serum samples were tested by indirect ELISA (using secretory excretory antigen) and semi-nested PCR (using ITS1 gene). The study was conducted in the School of Publish Health, Tehran University of Medical Sciences, Iran in 2021.
Results: Significant differences were found between agreement and similarity of patients' results of indirect ELISA and semi-nested PCR 94.46% and 98.4% respectively (Cohen's kappa ≥0.6; P-value≤0.05). No cross-reactions were observed with other parasitic diseases (toxocariasis, hydatidosis, strongyloidiasis, toxoplasmosis, cutaneous leishmaniasis, taeniasis and trichinosis). 69.84% of samples were positive by both techniques. In addition, the percentage of agreement and similarity between the results of the two techniques based on habitat in endemic areas was 88.9-100% and 97.7-100%, respectively (Cohen's kappa ≥0.6; P-value≤0.05).
Conclusion: Semi-nested PCR could be a suitable method for following up on patients' treatment and a confirmatory method for ELISA as for diagnosis of human fascioliasis.

Published: March 2022

Introduction: Uncontrolled and improper landfilling of solid waste increases the concentration of heavy metals in the soil. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate soil contamination with heavy metals in the landfill of municipal and hospital waste in Sabzevar city by compiling a map of the severity of heavy metal pollution in the soil.
Materials and Methods: Concentrations of heavy metals were analyzed by ICP-OES at distances of 10, 100 m from the burial site and at depths of 10 and 30 cm. To quantitatively evaluate the severity of pollution and the environmental effects of heavy metals in the soils around the Sabzevar landfill, enrichment factor (EF), index of geoaccumulation (Igeo), and investigating carcinogenic and noncarcinogenic hazards of heavy metals were used. Then a general map of soil pollution severity was prepared using the limitation scores (LS) and potential ecological risk index (RI) method.
Results: Mean concentrations of As, Zn, Pb, Cr, and Cu in topsoil were 6.01, 41.4, 6.31, 26.77, and 31.45 mg/kg, respectively, as well as Hg and Cd were 60.79, and 61.60 µg/kg, respectively. However, mean concentrations of As, Zn, Pb, Cr, and Cu in the soil at a depth of 30 cm were 5.75, 38.33, 6.25, 22.68, and 31.04 mg/kg, respectively, as well as Hg and Cd were 66.57, and 59.98 µg/kg, respectively.
Conclusion: According to the estimates of Igeo and FE indices, only Hg and Cd showed severe contamination. The noncarcinogenic risks of heavy metals were estimated to be less than 1.

Authors: Ludang Yetrie , Palangka Jaya Herry , Mangkoedihardjo Sarwoko
Published: March 2022

Introduction: The use of antiseptics and disinfectants in daily health protocols has a consequence of changing the quality of wastewater to be toxic to microbes. As a result, microbiological wastewater treatment has the potential to not be processed properly. To solve the problem of disinfectant-rich wastewater, a plant-based treatment method can be useful, the implementation of which is a land treatment system for wastewater.
Materials and Methods: The data collection method was carried out through the Mendeley Reference Manager, searching for articles online, and placing the terms “land treatment system”, and “disinfectant-rich wastewater”. The selected articles were up-to-date and had a significant relationship between the two terms.
Results: This sanitation system can be a stretch of land and/or a pond of water, on which plants can grow and process. Normal concentrations of disinfectants for microbial elimination had no negative effects on the growth of various types of plants. Plants continue to live in the stress of water rich in disinfectants, as a condition of their ability to treat wastewater. The involvement of various wastewater treatment media makes evapotranspiration dry bed and evapotranspiration wet bed or wetland ponds capable of processing various pollutants. This approach can be implemented for on-site and off-site sanitation system.
Conclusion: In this context, under conditions of enrichment of disinfectants in wastewater during the COVID-19 era, the land treatment system becomes feasible to solve the problem of changing the quality of wastewater.

Published: March 2022

The current growth of water conservation in Indonesia is still not optimally utilized by the community. The government has an important role in flood and drought disaster control to improve the welfare of its population. According to Indonesian Law No. 11 of 1974, water is a basic necessity for humans. However, human activities in agriculture, industry, and household activities can cause pollution, where the necessity for water increases yet its quality decreases. The water resource network in the watershed area of Banten Province, especially in Cisadane, is an old water resource facility and infrastructure, so there is some large and small scale damage, which certainly has an impact on the services to the water users. Related to flood control, the lake has a very important role as a water storage area and in reducing the amount of water runoff/water retention. The decline in the condition of the flow of rivers, lakes, reservoirs and swamps is inseparable from physical predicaments such as land conversion, and non-physical ones such as natural disasters. Therefore, the government’s role is important to provide information on flood and drought disaster control management systems so that the community can support their economic stability and be properly maintained.

Authors: Prakoso Septyanto Galan , Wijaya Abyan Ardan , Putra Ferdian Ahya Al
Published: March 2022

Indonesia is the largest archipelago country in the world, with more than 17,000 islands. Located on the “ring of fire”, Indonesia has many active volcanoes, and also has the threat of earthquakes as a result of constant movement of the tectonic plates between the Eurasian and Australian plates. Because of these features, Indonesia has one of the highest disaster-risk of all countries in the world. In terms of disaster resilience, the people of Indonesia have their own cultures with many local communities that have been educated about the potential disasters that might arise. After the 2004 tsunami that hit Aceh, disaster mitigation education gained more attention in Indonesia. Using the concept of disaster risk reduction uniquely fused with local wisdom and culture, this study aimed to describe the potential impact of natural disasters in Indonesia, and the prevention of the loss of life. Qualitative analyses were used, with a focus on Yogyakarta province, as one of the regions in Indonesia with the highest natural disaster risk. This study found that disaster resilience is increasing in Indonesia.

Published: March 2022

This article aimed to review how the policy adoption process occurs based on published case studies, and explain the conceptualization of policy adoption, adding a theoretical overview to the conceptual definition. This study was conducted through a literature review. The researchers found 37 relevant articles to map the development of policy adoption. Qualitative descriptive analysis was used. Terms mapping was carried out using VoSviewer. Policy adoption was defined by general conceptualization. The findings showed that policy adoption is a part of the decision to choose policy alternatives after the policy formulation process. Mostly, the policy adoption process is influenced by internal and external determinants, often called policy diffusion. These determinants are each associated with elements that influence a government’s decision to adopt a policy.

Published: March 2022

The purpose of this research was to examine why the cartel is still growing in Indonesia, through using an institutional political economy analysis approach, namely rational choice institutionalism. This approach was used so as to investigate how institutional rules and arrangements regulate individual actions and how individual actors try to change rules and regulations that cause institutional problems. This study focused on two cases that depicted the interactions of three actors (entrepreneurs, bureaucrats, and politicians) which helped perpetuate the cartel. Findings indicated that actors can be motivated by the rewards and costs incurred for their actions and pursue their interests rationally. Also, according to the results, the import quota policy which aims to protect domestic producers is vulnerable to misuse and corruption due to the lack of transparency in granting quotas to importers.
