Implicaciones pedagógicas: los imaginarios sobre la belleza presentes en Cosas de niñas
Authors: Hernández Ordoñez Nadia Johanna
Published: December 2023

El libro Cosas de niñas, empleado asiduamente en el entorno escolar, ofrece una serie de consejos, actividades, ideas e información de género y salud, entre otros, que están permeados por imaginarios sobre la belleza. Este artículo tiene como objetivo analizar las implicaciones pedagógicas de esos imaginarios, a partir de la consideración de que la literatura puede aportar significativamente a cómo los sujetos construyen una narrativa de sí mismos. En ese sentido, se parte de asumir que los libros infantiles contribuyen con gran fuerza a la imagen que las niñas adoptan sobre sí mismas y, por tanto, configuran formas de constitución de una narrativa propia apoyada en el interés por la construcción de la identidad como uno de los grandes aprendizajes que se espera se alcancen durante la infancia. Para la interpretación, se establecen tres categorías de estudio que evidencian los imaginarios de belleza en diversos capítulos de la obra: a) ¿cómo son las niñas?; b)¿de qué hablan?, ¿qué sienten?, y ¿qué hacen?, y c) ¿para quién lo hacen? Para el análisis de la información obtenida, se realiza un ejercicio crítico desde la relación explicar y comprender, propuesta por la hermenéutica reflexiva. Se concluye que estos libros transmiten ideas enmarcadas en estereotipos sociales, violencias de género e invisibilización de las libertades en la construcción de la identidad de las niñas. Así mismo, se presenta como hallazgo la relevancia de que el cuerpo docente analice dichas ideas e imaginarios, así como los medios que los replican y consolidan.
Das Scheitern der kooperativen globalen Klimapolitik: Ein Insider blickt zurück

IS HISTORY REPEATING ITSELF? #WOMANINMETAVERSE
Authors: UNUVAR UNLUOGLU Dilara
Published: December 2023

The rapid advancement of digital technologies and the emergence of the metaverse have significantly transformed the ways in which individuals communicate, interact, and express themselves in virtual spaces. As the metaverse has become an increasingly integral part of modern society, the representation of gender, particularly women, in these digital realms has gained importance. This research aims to explore the multifaceted evolution of the female figure in the metaverse, examining representations, identity construction, and the socio-cultural and socioeconomic implications of these virtual personas. Through a comprehensive interdisciplinary analysis, the research sheds light on how the depiction of the female figure has evolved, the determinants individuals use to shape their digital identities, and the potential impact on real-world gender dynamics. As one of the pioneering works on gender effects in the MV, our findings shed light on how the seeds of gender inequality are still being sown in different forms in the newly created digital world.
Developing of Biotin-Thiamine Responsive Basal Ganglia Disease after Accidental Ingestion of Ethyl Alcohol: A Case Report
Authors: Aldosari Abdullah Nasser , Arisha Aida , Ibrahim Ahmed , Gongi Mohamed
Published: December 2023

Biotin-thiamine-responsive basal ganglia disease (BTBGD) is a rare, inherited neurometabolic disorder caused by mutations in the SLC19A3 gene and characterized by recurrent sub-acute episodes of encephalopathy that are often triggered by infections. Patients with BTBGD have classical neuroimaging findings and a dramatic response to high doses of thiamine. Herein, we report a 2 and a half-year-old Saudi girl presented with an acute onset of ataxia, slurred speech, and dysphagia, which was preceded by a history of accidental ingestion of around 20 mL of ethyl alcohol that is used in formulating perfumes 1 day earlier. Her older brother had a similar clinical presentation and was diagnosed with BTBGD. The patient was fully alert and spoke in full sentences with dysarthria. She was unable to walk unassisted. Investigation revealed a positive toxicity test for ethyl alcohol (10 mg/dL), and brain magnetic resonance imaging showed basal ganglia changes consistent with BTBGD. The dramatic response to high doses of thiamine suggested SLC19A3 as a strong candidate gene, and Sanger sequencing revealed a homozygous (NM_025243.4): c.1264A>G (p.Thr422Ala) mutation. Patients with BTBGD should be cautious and aware of ethyl alcohol products, which can lead to a BTBGD crisis. The administration of a high dose of thiamin may be required in patients who have not responded to the recommended dose. Further clinical research is required to determine the optimal doses.

Semito-Hamitic or Afro-Asiatic consonantism and lexicon: Episodes of a comparative research II: The “old school” of Egypto-Semitic (Part 2: Post-war phase)
Authors: Takács Gábor
Published: December 2023

My retrospective survey on the past and present trends in the comparative research of Semito-Hamitic / Hamito-Semitic (SH / HS, resp.) or Afro-Asiatic (AA) phonology (first of all consonantism), root structure and lexicon has been segmented into eleven episodes according to diverse (often overlapping in time) trends. This series of studies is now under way and will be presented part by part in a series of papers. The present paper surveys the post-war history (second half of the 20th century) of a rather introverted and fossilized special branch of comparative studies that has been arbitrarily focusing on a forced comparison of just Semitic and Egyptian, which was split off for more than a whole century by now from mainstream Semito-Hamitic studies at the end of the 19th century.
Common Kyushu-Ryukyuan substratum in maritime vocabulary: A preliminary analysis
Authors: Jarosz Aleksandra , Orlandi Georg
Published: December 2023

This paper constitutes a preliminary linguistic test of the hypothesis which postulates that shared Kyushu-Ryukyuan lexicon related to maritime knowledge provides evidence for a Kyushu-Ryukyuan subgrouping within the Japonic cladogram. The paper introduces Kyushu-Ryukyuan cognates and potential shared lexical innovations in seafaring vocabulary, cardinal directions and navigation, and marine fauna, all of which suggest a shared Kyushu-Ryukyuan navigation culture, as well as common maritime subsistence and lifestyle patterns. The case is reinforced by several promising cases of common morphological features between Kyushu and Ryukyuan. The overall conclusion is that the compared linguistic data does support the Kyushu-Ryukyuan clade. Finally, we identify a mismatch between lexical and morphological evidence concerning lower-unit classification of the South Japonic node. We observe that while shared innovative vocabulary allows to postulate Proto-Satsugū-Ryukyuan within Kyushu-Ryukyuan as the most direct mainland ancestor of Ryukyuan languages – the predecessor pre-Proto-Ryukyuan language that was still spoken in Kyushu in the first millennium AD – shared grammatical features do not suggest any particular subdivision of Kyushu-Ryukyuan.
The vowel /a/ as the main portal to humanity’s language and culture faculties
Authors: Puppel Stanisław
Published: December 2023

The vowel /a/ is regarded here as the initial sound, based on earlier vowel-like vocalization in humans, especially the neonate cry. This particular type of vocalization marks the true beginning of human language in the ontological perspective. Its presence is absolutely fundamental for the generation and maintenance of oxygen-based language and culture complex. All of human life is conducted in the human auditive world of organization based on the air (the aerial condition).
Анималистические гротески в фольклоре и литературе славянских народов как художественный антидепрессант и релевантный элемент культурной грамотности
Authors: Niekraszewicz-Karotkaja Żanna
Published: December 2023

Songs with animalistic motifs are widely represented in the traditional culture of Slavic peoples. Songs with bird motifs clearly predominate, as most of them were originally connected with the archaic ritual of the bird wedding. In the course of their centuries of use, their erotic context has been reduced, and their social and didactic motifs have been strengthened. Embodied primarily in the form of grotesques (Czesław Hernas), these songs became an essential element of the cultural literacy (Eric Donald Hirsch) of the people and formed the basis of ethnopedagogy. The playful character and life-like plot collisions played a role of a peculiar psychotherapeutic means, which is confirmed by the reviews of ethnographers, as well as writers, who processed the folklore plots. In the culture of the Slavic peoples of the new time, the songs with bird motifs were most widespread, although the ritual of a bird wedding survived only among the Sorbs from Lusatia. Animalistic grotesques contributed to the socialization of a person, their awareness of themselves within various models of collective identity. This is why such poems and songs are especially relevant in the sphere of modern recreational culture, including in the field of preschool pedagogy.
Студент плюс-минус Интернет, или интернет-составляющая в компетенции русиста
Authors: Mikheeva Larisa
Published: December 2023

Scientists describe the way young people (school children and university students) think today, as a fundamentally superficial, fragmentary, illogical mosaic. This mode of thinking significantly differs from the conceptual thinking specific to previous generations. Easy access to Internet content and electronic technologies induces students to plagiarize and to resign from independent action. The paper presents fragments of essays and exam tests bearing traces of Internet content manipulation. This practice is not considered as unethical by a number of students. However difficult it may seem to efficiently counteract the habit of copying and pasting material available online, it can be channeled into appropriate approaches and methods. To accommodate these recent changes in cognitive mechanisms, the educational material, and the theoretical elements which are offered to the modern pupils and students, one should intensively focus on contextualizing fragmentary information, providing records in the modernized forms such as modules, flowcharts, algorithms, and mind maps. This approach may help students overcome the inconsistency in the reception and reproduction of the information and avoid serious mistakes in their comprehension of the presented facts. The adaptation of the teaching techniques can form in students the skills of extracting the most important facts, following cause and effect relationships, and structuring the data accordingly.
Transkrypcja tekstu rosyjskiego na znaki polskiego alfabetu w relacjach z zesłania publikowanych na łamach czasopisma „Zesłaniec”
Authors: Dzienisiewicz Daniel
Published: December 2023

The aim of the article is to analyze transcription errors occurring in the texts transcribed from Russian into the Polish alphabet which were published in the journal “Zesłaniec”. The results of the study show that the majority of errors are caused by Polish language interference and insufficient knowledge of the Russian language. Many errors are also influenced by the sounds of the Russian language. The obtained results are compared against the outcomes of (presented) previous analyses and high-frequency errors observed in studies to date. On the basis of the conducted analysis, the author proposes to modify the current Polish transcription system of the Russian language. He postulates that the rules used by the Polish Scientific Publishers PWN are replaced with a set of rules which would to a greater extent reflect the phonetic features of the Russian language as well as the transcription practices of Polish speakers.

Jest nadzieja, bo jest Niepokalana, red. Bogdan Kulik MSF, wydawnictwo Bernardinum, Pelplin 2023, s. 240
Authors: Sławiński Henryk
Published: December 2023

Przedmiotem badań jest kult Niepokalanej będącej uosobieniem teologicznej cnoty nadziei; szczególnie uwzględniono sanktuarium maryjne w Górce Klasztornej, gdzie w 1079 roku doszło do najstarszego na ziemiach polskich objawienia Matki Bożej. Celem opracowania jest syntetyczne omówienie treści tekstów naukowych zamieszczonych w publikacji Jest nadzieja, bo jest Niepokalana. Do osiągnięcia celu zastosowano metodę analizy treści tekstów oraz metodę syntezy. Przeprowadzone badania pozwalają na przedstawienie wniosków: Górka Klasztorna jest miejscem najstarszego na ziemiach polskich objawienie Matki Bożej, a wzniesione tam sanktuarium powierzone zostało w 1923 roku duszpasterskiej trosce Zgromadzenia Misjonarzy Świętej Rodziny, założonego w 1895 roku w Grave w Holandii przez Sługę Bożego, ks. Jana Berthiera (1840-1908). Działalność misjonarzy w Górce Klasztornej w ciągu stu lat odbywała się w kontekście dramatycznych wydarzeń XX wieku. Kult Maryi ma podstawy biblijne i liturgiczne. Niepokalana jest obrazem nowego człowieka. Jej osoba i udział w dziele zbawienia jest treścią kazań i nauczania wybitnych teologów i duszpasterzy, co przedstawiono na przykładzie Antoniego z Padwy, Jana Berthiera, Józefa Kentenicha. W ikonografii chrześcijańskiej znane są charakterystyczne typy przedstawień Maryi, które zostały omówione na przykładach wybranych obrazów. Podana została też teologiczna interpretacja obrazu z Górki Klasztornej. Niepokalana jest ważnym fundamentem nadziei chrześcijańskiej i wzorem do przedstawienia w katechezie dla dorosłych na tematy życia wiecznego i zagadnień eschatologicznych.
Dojrzali czy niedojrzali? Dojrzałość nupturientów do zawarcia sakramentalnego związku na podstawie badań pilotażowych w archidiecezji poznańskiej
Authors: Pilarczyk Hubert
Published: December 2023

Celem prezentowanego artykułu pt. „Dojrzali czy niedojrzali? Dojrzałość nupturientów do zawarcia sakramentalnego związku na podstawie badań pilotażowych w Archidiecezji poznańskiej” było przedstawienie wyników badań dotyczących poziomu dojrzałości narzeczonych, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem wymagań stawianych kandydatom przygotowującym się do zawarcia sakramentalnego małżeństwa w Kościele katolickim. Do opisu kondycji nupturientów zastosowano metodę analityczno-syntetyczną treści, dotyczącej dojrzałości do małżeństwa oraz przeprowadzono badania ankietowe wśród osób uczestniczących w katechezach przedmałżeńskich w wybranych ośrodkach Archidiecezji Poznańskiej. Tekst zwraca uwagę na różne aspekty dojrzałości, takie jak dojrzałość prawna, fizyczna, psychologiczna i religijna. Przedstawione analizy wykazały, że większość badanych narzeczonych posiadała poziom dojrzałości umożliwiający zawarcie sakramentalnego małżeństwa, zgodnie z wymaganiami prawa kanonicznego. Jednocześnie duża grupa badanych wykazywała duże deficyty w dojrzałości osobowej i religijnej. Opisana sytuacja może rzutować na późniejsze relacje małżeńskie i jakość małżeńskiego dobrostanu. Prezentowany tekst stanowi podwaliny pod rozwój duszpasterstwa nupturientów - wskazuje na obszary wymagające szczególnej uwagi ze strony duszpasterzy, takie jak rozwijanie poziomu dojrzałości religijnej, co może pomóc narzeczonym w budowaniu mocnych i trwałych małżeństw, opartych na wartościach sakramentalnych oraz wsparcie ich o pomoc kompetentnych ekspertów z dziedziny psychologii i życia rodzinnego. Treści zawarte w artykule stanowią ważny wkład w dyskusję na temat dojrzałości narzeczonych do zawarcia sakramentalnego związku oraz roli Kościoła katolickiego i duszpasterzy w kształtowaniu poziomu dojrzałości narzeczonych.
Utrata dziecka w okresie prenatalnym. Aspekt społeczno-moralny
Authors: Kłos-Skrzypczak Aleksandra
Published: December 2023

W artykule zwrócono uwagę na ważny aspekt życia społecznego, jakim jest utrata dziecka w okresie prenatalnym. Dla kobiet poronienie jest doświadczeniem trudnym, bolesnym, niosącym obciążenie emocjonalne również dla najbliższych. Celem artykułu jest podkreślenie, jak ważne jest uwrażliwienie społeczeństwa na kwestie śmierci dziecka w okresie prenatalnym. Istotna jest swego rodzaju „mentalna rewolucja” wobec podejścia do tematu poronienia, pochówku dzieci zmarłych przed narodzeniem, jak również kwestii przeżywania żałoby. Na poczet niniejszego opracowania przeprowadzono jakościowe badania empiryczne: przeanalizowano dokumenty z kartoteki cmentarnej parafii św. Józefa w Katowicach, na terenie której znajduje się grób dzieci utraconych.
Network dynamics in hybrid microgrid and its implications on stability analysis
Authors: Jain Diksha , Saxena Dipti
Published: December 2023

Dynamic load is one of the significant factor affecting the stability of hybrid microgrid (MG), owing to their frequency and voltage dependency. As compared with the static load, a small variation in voltage or frequency significantly influences the stability of MG having dynamic load. Therefore, it necessitates considering the dynamics of load for stability analysis of an MG. Moreover, the stability issues become more critical for the islanded operation. This paper investigates the small signal (SS) stability of a hybrid MG utilizing composite load model (CLM) to include the load dynamics. This paper also investigates the critical universal droop control parameters and other internal controller parameters that influence MG stability. Eigenvalue analysis is used to identify the respective stability domain of different control parameters. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is tested by comparing the dynamics of CLM with constant power and impedance load. In addition, a memetic algorithm and SQP-GS is used to find the optimal values of different key parameters. The simulation results confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed SS dynamic model of hybrid MG and the efficacy of the optimization algorithm for tuning control parameters, which improved the dynamic performance of the hybrid MG.
Collecting language assessment data in the age of pandemic: a preliminary case study of Chinese EFL learners
Authors: Guo Junyan
Published: December 2023

This study reports a preliminary exploration of the online collection of language assessment data in the author’s PhD project under the influence of the COVID-19 pandemic. It describes the challenges the author met, details the adaptations she made, and delineates its implications. Specifically, the data collection in this project involved remotely delivering three vocabulary tests and one speaking task to EFL learners in mainland China and collecting the results of these tests. In this process, the author trialed, pilot-tested, and compared three test-administering modes: first an asynchronous mode (Wenjuanwang), then a synchronous mode (Tencent Meeting), and finally a return to an asynchronous mode (Super Star Learning). It is hoped that this exploratory investigation into these technology-enhanced online methods will add a different perspective and present a multifaceted view for data collection of language assessment research during and after this pandemic.
Moral Reasoning in the Climate Crisis: A Personal Guide
Authors: Obst Arthur R.
Published: December 2023

This article substantiates the common intuition that it is wrong to contribute to dangerous climate change for no significant reason. To advance this claim, I first propose a basic principle that one has the moral obligation to act in accordance with the weight of moral reasons. I further claim that there are significant moral reasons for individuals not to emit greenhouse gases, as many other climate ethicists have already argued. Then, I assert that there are often no significant moral (or excusing) reasons to emit greenhouse gases. In any such trivial-cost – but not necessarily trivial-impact – cases, the individual then has an obligation to refrain. Finally, I apply the moral weighing principle to everyday situations of emitting and establish two surprisingly substantial implications: the relevance of virtues to the interpersonal assessment of environmentally harmful actions and the extensive individual ethical obligations that exist short of moral purity.
Integrated analysis of TCGA data identifies endoplasmic reticulum stress-related lncRNA signature in stomach adenocarcinoma
Authors: Gao Yuan , Zhang Huxiong , Tian Xiaoxuan
Published: December 2023

Objectives

To investigaed the role of endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS)-related long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD) using TCGA data.

Methods

This study integrated clinical, transcriptomic, and tumor data from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). The expression of ERS genes was evaluated, alongside their association with identified lncRNAs. Gene set enrichment analysis and immune cell infiltration analysis were performed to elucidate the biological pathways influenced by these lncRNAs.

Results

The study identified five lncRNAs – AC012055.1, LINC01235, LINC00571, LINC02073, and CFAP61-AS1 – strongly correlated with ERS pathways and cancer prognosis. A prognostic model based on these lncRNAs was developed and validated across low- and high-risk groups. Potential biological pathways associated with these lncRNAs were uncovered through immune cell infiltration and GSEA. Additionally, screening identified drugs potentially effective against STAD, highlighting co-expressed genes as probable therapeutic targets.

Conclusions

This research offers detailed insights into the molecular mechanisms of STAD, enhancing understanding of potential therapeutic targets and showing promise for clinical applications.
In silico study of inhibition activity of boceprevir drug against 2019-nCoV main protease
Authors: Tiwari Gargi , Chauhan Madan Singh , Sharma Dipendra
Published: December 2023

Boceprevir drug is a ketoamide serine protease inhibitor with a linear peptidomimetic structure that exhibits inhibition activity against 2019-nCoV main protease. This paper reports electronic properties of boceprevir and its molecular docking as well as molecular dynamics simulation analysis with protein receptor. For this, the equilibrium structure of boceprevir has been obtained by DFT at B3LYP and ωB97XD levels with 6-311+G(d,p) basis set in gas and water mediums. HOMO–LUMO and absorption spectrum analysis have been used to evaluate the boceprevir’s toxicity and photosensitivity, respectively. Molecular docking simulation has been performed to test the binding affinity of boceprevir with 2019-nCoV MPRO; which rendered a variety of desirable binding locations between the ligand and target protein’s residue positions. The optimum binding location has been considered for molecular dynamics simulation. The findings have been addressed to clarify the boceprevir drug efficacy against the 2019-nCoV MPRO.
The Role of Language in the Building of Croatian National Identity in Istria
Authors: Fonović Cvijanović Teodora , Vitković Marčeta Vanessa
Published: December 2023

In this paper, we address the building of Croatian national identity in several Istrian newspapers of the 19th and 20th century, from the earliest publishing enterprises to 1955. This was a time of complex political circumstances and changes in the Istrian region, when an important role in the process of language planning and in language policy was played, among others, by publications that influenced the formation of the public language: Naša sloga, Hrvatski list, Pučki prijatelj, Istarska riječ, and Hrvatski glas. Texts dedicated to bilingualism and trilingualism, Germanization and Italianization of language in education, administration, post offices, seafaring, railway, Church, and other forms of both public and private communication reflect clearly the language policy of the period of building Croatian national identity. In the atmosphere marked by the general dissolution of cultural institutions (schools, people’s associations, libraries, societies, and journals) in both Croatian and Slovene – which helped the assimilation of the local population considerably – the emergence of publications in Croatian was extremely important for the language. Additionally, they were an important source of information and familiarization of the population with legal regulations concerning the status of the Croatian language, whereby these media became a powerful tool of spreading the rhetoric of the ruling parties that created or tried to influence the linguistic reality and practices.
Emotions in the Discourse of a Literery Essay
Authors: Rogić Musa Tea
Published: December 2023

The article interprets Olga Tokarczuk’s essay Lalka i Perła about the novel Lalka by Bolesław Prus. An attempt will be made to explain what cognitive value this text has for the reader of Tokarczuk’s prose and for the reader who is interested in Prus’s novel, and to answer the question whether this essay can be considered as a contribution to literary-historical or other literary-scientific knowledge about Prus. The central thesis of the article is that Tokarczuk’s writing about Prus is an example of emotionalized discourse of fictionalized historiographical prose, a hybrid and marginal essayistic genre that appropriates the features of both fictional prose and modern literary scientific writing, compressing some of the traditional essay’s procedures, such as presenting personal viewpoints and intentionally impregnating the discourse with private emotional manifestations. The aim of the paper is the analysis of Tokarczuk’s writing and the assessment of the scope of her essay in the context of knowledge of Prus’s novel.
Posredovanje emocija izraženih neverbalnim znakovima u audiodeskripciji filma Murina
Authors: Macan Željka
Published: December 2023

Audiodeskripcija je poseban oblik unutarjezičnoga prevođenja kojim se vizualni dio poruke audiovizualnoga sadržaja prenosi u odgovarajuću auditivnu informaciju s ciljem njezine dostupnosti osobama oštećena vida. Nakon uvodnih napomena o dostupnosti medijskih sadržaja kojima se informacija prenosi (i) vizualnim kanalom, donosi se pregled temeljnih obilježja audiodeskripcije i načina na koji se njome auditivnim kanalom posreduju emocije pretvorene u znakove drugoga semiotičkog sustava. Audiovizualni tekst koji je polazište za provedenu analizu je igrani film Murina, čiji je sadržaj izvorom za jezične izraze različitih emocija. U filmu se izdvajaju sekvence koje sadrže elemente emocionalno obojene komunikacije izražene neverbalnim ponašanjem, a među njima one u kojima je zastupljena audiodeskripcija. Polazeći od toga da se neverbalnom komunikacijom može izraziti cijeli niz emocija te da se neke emocije mogu povezati s određenim kinezičkim ponašanjem, njegov se verbalni izraz dovodi u vezu s načinom na koji se određena emocija obilježava te se time kompenzira višemodalnost izvornoga igranog filma. Analizom se verbalnih izraza emocionalnih stanja i reakcija želi utvrditi koja se jezična sredstva u tekstu audiodeskripcije koriste za predočavanje emocija likova u filmu. Zaključno se navode zastupljene strategije i tehnike u opisu neverbalnoga ponašanja kao izraza pojedinih emocija.
Il maschile non marcato nella lingua giornalistica della comunità nazionale italiana in Slovenia e Croazia
Authors: Zorman Anja
Published: December 2023

In Italia da decenni la politica linguistica promossa dal Governo italiano si impegna a modificare la rappresentazione femminile opaca nelle cariche e professioni, tradizionalmente esercitate da uomini. Attraverso gli usi della lingua promossi, la politica linguistica si propone di incidere sul modo in cui i parlanti percepiscono la realtà, e nel caso di titoli professionali, di contribuire a una maggiore parità tra i due generi. Il presente contributo indaga il livello di suscettibilità della lingua italiana, utilizzata in ambito giornalistico nei mezzi destinati alla comunità nazionale italiana in Slovenia e in Croazia, alle politiche linguistiche italiane relative all’assegnazione e all’uso del genere grammaticale con il riferimento a designata femminili. A tal proposito è stata svolta una ricerca che ha interessato lo spoglio dei testi giornalistici, prodotti e destinati alla comunità nazionale italiana in Istria, e la loro successiva analisi. Dai risultati emerge un uso variegato e incoerente del genere grammaticale, in particolare per designare nomi di cariche, titoli e professioni, che in passato erano di dominio quasi esclusivo maschile. Il confronto con il corpus Italia non ha mostrato particolari correlazioni con gli usi riscontrati nell’italiano in Istria, per eccezione di ministra, dove si sono potuti osservare valori simili nel corpus Italia (Zarra 2017) e nella banca dati della Radio e TV Capodistria.
Tool Dichotomies in a Period of Inter-epochal Transition – Philosophical and Anthropological Reflections on Post-Neolithic Dual Technology
Authors: Wolski Damian
Published: December 2023

The presented publication is the end result of an authorial, post-doctoral research project devoted to the multi-aspect flint tool dichotomy at the turn of the Stone and Metal Ages. The results of use-wear analysis of archaeological materials from south-eastern Poland and the Moravia region of the Czech Republic, obtained by the author over the last decade, have been supplemented in this article with a philosophical component. By visualising the network of connections on the empirical-theory line, the explanatory value of the dichotomous lithic concept was raised. Moreover, the discourse on the period at the turn of the Stone and Metal Ages has been enriched with new interpretative solutions for economic and social issues of that time in prehistory. The author places his philosophical investigations within the hermeneutical approach. After the study of key terms (dichotomy, divergence, convergence), structuralist thought becomes the leading theme at the end of the article. The paper deals with the concepts of such thinkers as: Martin Heidegger, Hannah Arendt, and Claude Lévi-Strauss.
Shipyard Archaeology in the Southern Baltic
Authors: Ossowski Waldemar
Published: December 2023

In the past two decades, the topic of archaeological studies of shipyard sites has regularly appeared in research devoted to maritime archaeology around the world. The closer attention of archaeologists to shipyard sites is due to the increased interest in studies of the maritime cultural landscape, ship graveyards, and coastal archaeology. The purpose of this paper is to review the problems of archaeological research of shipyard sites in the southern Baltic Sea and to compare these problems with previous research results from other regions. Seasonal or occasional sites for the building or repair of boats and ships have been created since the earliest times. Isolating such sites is often problematic since sleepers or simple wooden supports were sufficient for the construction of plank boats and the work was carried out in the open air. In the coastal cities of the southern Baltic, there is evidence for the existence of designated permanent shipbuilding yards, although without permanent shipbuilding structures, since the late Middle Ages. These were places in which a ship’s carpenter received permission from the city authorities to use a particular section of the yard for shipbuilding in return for an appropriate fee. Structures used for construction were assembled each time to a specific order from the builder’s materials and they could be dismantled after completion of the project. Archaeological research of the Gdansk Lastadia site remains the best recognized shipyard providing a more complete picture of the maritime cultural landscape of this southern Baltic city from the late Middle Ages to the 19th century.
Lithic Industry of the Kamyane-Zavallia Linearbandkeramik Site in Ukraine (2019 Campaign)
Authors: Kiosak Dmytro , Dębiec Maciej , Kolesnychenko Anzhelika , Saile Thomas
Published: December 2023

The paper treats a selection of lithic finds from Kamyane-Zavallia (Kam’âne-Zavallâ) – the easternmost Linearbandkeramik culture (LBK) site ever excavated. The lithic assemblage belongs to typical representatives of the early farming lithic industries in the region. It is characterized by prismatic cores for blade production, end-scrapers on fragmented blades and flakes, retouched blades, perforators, and a blade fragment with “sickle gloss”. There is a single projectile point of unidentifiable morphology. The authors argue that there is no trace of “Mesolithic heritage” in the assemblage of Kamyane-Zavallia. The assemblage finds close parallels in the sites of Nicolaevca V, Dănceni I, and other LBK sites from Moldova and Romania.
Neolithic Flintworking of the Samborzec-Opatów Group in Lesser Poland in the Light of Settlement Materials from Tonie 9 Site, Kraków Commune
Authors: Wąs Marcin
Published: December 2023

The article presents flint materials obtained from settlement site of Samborzec-Opatów group from the Tonie 9 site in Lesser Poland. The flintworking of this unit is still poorly recognized. In the literature, special attention has mainly been paid to ceramic materials, especially in studies on the genesis of this group and its relations with other taxonomic units of the Neolithic in Lesser Poland (especially with the Malice culture and later groups of the Lendziel). Therefore, it is worth introducing the specificity of Samborzec-Opatów flintworking, especially since the recently arrived inventory from the Tonie 9 site is quite numerous and relatively homogeneous. Therefore, the main goal is to present materials that can be used for further studies, e.g. those of a comparative nature.

Filament winding is a widely used method for producing tubes and pressure vessels from composite materials. However, overlapping of fibers during the winding process can lead to rough surface and increased voids in the finished product. To improve the quality of CFRP materials produced through filament winding, the structure is cured either at room temperature or in an oven with a controlled heat profile, depending on the type of resin used. Various finishing techniques, including shrink tape, compression molding, and vacuum compression molding, have been attempted to improve the quality of the specimen. Among these techniques, vacuum compression molding has been found to deliver the best results in terms of surface roughness, with average roughness (Ra) values of 0.35 μm in the fiber direction and 0.61 μm in the transverse direction. This level of roughness is comparable to that achieved through milling machine manufacturing. Moreover, this technique ensures uniformity in fiber composition and volume fraction, achieving a homogeneous density of 1364.49 kg/m3 and the highest fiber volume fraction of 63 %. As a result, remarkable mechanical attributes, such as a tensile strength of 926.07 MPa and a stiffness of 21.35 GPa, can be obtained. In addition, by utilizing various finishing techniques, the tensile strength of these properties can be increased by up to 80 %. CFRP is a versatile material with unique characteristics, and selecting appropriate finishing techniques such as vacuum compression molding can significantly enhance its overall quality and mechanical properties. However, one drawback of the filament winding method is the poor outer surface finish which can be improved by vacuum compression molding

The result of the conducted research is the development of a technology for the production of buckwheat groats using plasma-chemically activated aqueous solutions. The research object was buckwheat grain. An urgent technological problem is the preservation of biologically valuable components of buckwheat during technological operations and optimization of the existing technology for the production of buckwheat groats. The expediency of using plasma-chemically activated aqueous solutions as an intensifier of the technological process of production of buckwheat groats and an effective groats disinfectant has been experimentally proven. It is shown that the use of plasma-chemical activation of technological solutions allows reducing the temperature and accelerating the course of hydrothermal treatment of buckwheat grain. The composition of buckwheat grain as a raw material was analyzed. The obtained buckwheat groats were studied separately. A reduction in tempering time from 6–10 to 2 h and a decrease in the optimal moistening temperature from 60 to 40 °C were recorded. This allows preserving a number of biologically important components in buckwheat grain. The groats yield increases from 68 to 74 %, i.e. by 1.9–6.0 %. The preservation of the maximum number of amino acids is observed, namely, 7.7 % more than in the control. That is, only 2 % is lost during technological processing, instead of 9.7 % in the control sample. The vitamin composition also remains stable and almost does not decrease in terms of B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, B6, K, E, PP, R. In addition, plasma-chemically activated solutions qualitatively disinfect grain raw materials during processing, which has a positive effect on further storage of buckwheat groats.
The technology can be applied in the industrial production of high-quality buckwheat groats. The developed technology will receive special attention in the production of ecologically clean cereal products that are not contaminated with pathogenic microflora
Determining features in the wear resistance characteristics of tribocompounds with a textured hole surface under conditions of boundary friction

Published: December 2023

The influence of surface texture in the form of pits on the wear resistance of tribocompounds under conditions of limit friction was investigated. At the first stage of research, the mechanism of lubricant behavior between the contacting surfaces and inside the holes was modeled. The limiting condition of the rotation frequency of the sample (n>27) was established, under which a drop of lubricant "leaves" the hole in the upper position of the sample and remains in the space between the sample and the surface of the counterbody, ensuring the regeneration of the boundary lubricating film on the surface of the tribocontact when it is destroyed. When the rotation frequency of the sample is reduced (n<27), the lubricant droplet remains in the hole and does not affect the processes of the boundary lubricant film. At the second stage, experimental studies of tribocombinations with a textured hole surface under conditions of extreme friction were carried out. It was established that the high wear resistance of the textured hole surfaces is provided by the high protective effect of the texture, as well as the high efficiency of the marginal lubricating film. It has been proven that the strengthening of the surface texture by the method of ion-plasma thermocyclic nitriding additionally increases the wear resistance by 1.7 times due to the high protective effect of surface nitrided layers and their high hardness (up to 9500 MPa). This strengthens the effect of inhibiting the occurrence of defects in the surface layers of tribocontact, ensures a high rate of wetting of the places of actual contact of triboconnections, and speeds up the process of regeneration of the boundary lubricating film. Research results can be used to modify the surface layer of heavily loaded parts operating under extreme operating conditions with limited supply of lubricant under various types of friction and wear
