Subjetividad, acontecimiento, experiencia. Modalidades autobiográficas en Campaña en el ejército grande de Domingo Faustino Sarmiento
Authors: Oyola Gonzalo
Published: December 2019

La recurrencia del argumento crítico acerca del carácter autobiográfico que estaría presente en los escritos de Domingo Faustino Sarmiento instaló la pregunta respecto de la posibilidad de esbozar una matriz autobiográfica en la producción sarmientina, susceptible de funcionar como una máquina de lectura para un texto que, como Campaña en el Ejército Grande aliado de Sud América, juega en los bordes de las leyes de la autobiografía. El recorrido por otros textos de Sarmiento —fundamentalmente Recuerdos de provincia— permitió deslindar una serie de procedimientos que organizaban un lugar de enunciación desde donde el locutor hablaba de sí mismo a través de un relato que tomaba la forma de una crítica de su presente narrado como la barbarie de los caudillos. La configuración discursiva de esta subjetividad que (se) escribe mostró su ligazón a un proyecto de Estado, que venía a fundir el yo de la enunciación con la constitución de una imagen de la comunidad plasmada en la dicotomía civilización frente a barbarie.
Maldición eterna a quien traicione esta utopía angelical: fantasía y cultura de masas en la narrativa de Manuel Puig
Authors: Corral Rodríguez Fortino
Published: December 2019

La inclusión de formas, temáticas y estilos propios de la cultura popular y de masas en la narrativa de Manuel Puig, así como la disposición fragmentada y aparentemente caótica de las partes que integran el cuerpo de cada una de las novelas, es uno de los aspectos que más ha llamado la atención de la crítica. Buena parte de ésta tiende a ver en la novelística de Puig una exposición magistral de la manera en que estos lenguajes persuasivos modelan la personalidad del individuo contemporáneo. En este trabajo me propongo problematizar esa lectura y advertir que la fantasía generada por estos discursos calificados como alienantes puede ser también portadora de claves y principios liberadores.
Comedia del Recebimiento de Bartolomé Cairasco de Figueroa: texto y espectáculo
Authors: Gutiérrez José Ismael
Published: December 2019

La Comedia del Recebimiento que se hizo al Reverendísimo Señor don Fernando de Rueda, obispo de Canarias, el día 8 de mayo de 1582, es una pieza teatral breve del escritor canario Bartolomé Cairasco de Figueroa. Perteneciente al llamado teatro “de entradas”, el cual incorpora a la representación dramatúrgica elementos festivos de carácter parateatral, la comedia cairasquiana enlaza con la retórica renacentista española de la época; pero, dada su vinculación espacial a la isla de Gran Canaria, aclimata temas y facetas de la realidad inmediata reconocibles para el público isleño.
Trasvestismo poético en el siglo XIX
Authors: Ortiz Domínguez Efrén
Published: December 2019

La presencia de la mujer en la historia y en las artes es un tema que recientemente ha despertado interés no sólo de las escritoras y críticas feministas, sino también de quienes, con un sentido más amplio, revaloran la importancia del arte y la cultura del siglo XIX. En ese marco, el artículo investiga la configuración de lo femenino en la sociedad demonónica, así como su manifestación, real o simulada, en la literatura escrita en el periodo. Dos casos reales y uno sospechoso de travestismo literario, muestran la idea que los intelectuales de ese siglo tienen acerca de la literatura escrita por mujeres. Irónicamente, ellos —también— consideran que la escritora es un travesti.
Hacia una historia de los críticos practicantes argentinos: el caso de Eduardo Mallea
Authors: Sánchez López Pablo
Published: December 2019

En este artículo se estudian los dos ensayos fundamentales en los que Eduardo Mallea expone su poética (Notas de un novelista y Poderío de la novela) y se analizan las prioridades literarias del novelista argentino, con sus consecuencias ideológicas. En esos textos, Mallea repasa algunas de las opcionesy categorías literarias más comunes a su época y perfila su posición en el campo literario argentino, a partir de sus tesis idealistas, metafísicas y políticamente conservadoras. Destacan especialmente sus respuestas a cuestiones como la fama del existencialismo, la necesidad del compromiso político o el dilema entre nacionalismo y universalismo en la literatura.
Una hermenéutica analógica para la literatura
Authors: Beuchot Puente Mauricio
Published: December 2019

Este artículo expone las bases de una hermenéutica analógica precisando las relaciones entre los conceptos que la fundamentan (iconicidad, analogía, símbolo, metonimia, metáfora, interpretación, univocidad, equivocidad). Ampliando las nociones de teóricos como Jakobson y Ricoeur, esta hermenéutica propone un balance interpretativo que participe de lo metonímico y lo metafórico, de lo literal y lo alegórico. Entre la hermenéutica univocista de los positivismos y la hermenéutica equivocista de los posmodernismos, la hermenéutica analógica apela al equilibrio proporcional de la analogía, base de la phrónesis de los griegos, y se proyecta como una oportuna alternativa frente a la crisis cultural derivada del uso exclusivista de los enfoques polarizados.

Economy of a large city: structural transformations in the era of global changes
Authors: Borshchevskyy Viktor
Published: December 2019

The paper outlines the features of structural transformations in the economy of large cities in conditions of globalization. Special attention is paid to finding priority directions and mechanisms of impact of global economic changes on evolutionary advances in economic structure of large cities. The decisive role of large cities in economic development of contemporary states is emphasized. The processes are accompanied by constant growth of the share of urban population and concentration of growing economic capacity in cities. Moreover, more and more metropolises and global cities emerge. Their major advantage is a high concentration level of production capacities and capital as well as significant human capacity, which promotes innovative development of various sectors of urban economy, mostly energy, information technologies, transport, household services, leisure and banking sector, etc. The following problems are defined as the most essential of those faced by large cities in the era of globalization: deteriorating quality of social capital, growing security challenges, growing risks of technological disasters, deteriorating quality of environment and environmental situation in general, growing load on engineering and social infrastructure, need to secure constant supply of sufficient volumes of drinking water and food. The paper proves that the priority directions of economy development in large cities in the era of globalization is to improve the mobility of population, improve living conditions and meet high standards of citizens’ household comfort, form innovative information-communication networks, establish qualitative planning of urban space, solve ecological problems, namely through renewable energy and prioritization of environmental protection. Recommendations regarding top priority measures of adaptation of large Ukrainian cities to modern requirements of globalization based on the experience of the most developed countries in the world are suggested. In particular, the authors emphasize the need to increase the volumes of investment in the development of information technologies and activation of digitalization of urban space due to releasing the share of budget resources currently inefficiently used and directing them on meeting social needs of citizens.
Methodical approach to the assessment of the educational migration environment of the population of the Carpathian region
Authors: Semiv Lyubov
Published: December 2019

The role and importance of the educational migration environment in activating migration movements of the population is described. The main components of the educational migration environment of the population are identified, and their features are outlined. Indicators have been proposed and the conditions for the formation of the educational migration environment of the population have been determined. It is proved that «freedom of knowledge movement» motivates students, teachers and researchers to combine educational and research activities with future employment abroad. The processes of educational migration in the form of cross-border education and academic mobility are presented. The concept of educational migration environment is defined and five main components of its formation are described: quantitative measurement of educational migration potential; quality of the academic environment; motivational conditions; opportunities for universities and industry collaboration in research; institutional conditions in the educational sphere. The list of indicators offered by the Ukrainian statistics is provided for quantitative representation of each component of the educational migration. Based on the method of multidimensional (cluster) analysis, the regional index of formation of educational migration environment is calculated. Using this method allows to move from the assessment of educational migration environment on 28 indicators to the construction of one synthetic indicator. Application of methodical approach allows to see the place of the region by the important parameters of development of the environment of educational migration of the population, to evaluate the attractiveness, opportunities and threats of formation of this environment in the regional dimension. It is proved that the «most favorable» environment in the Carpathian region has the Lviv region (4th place in Ukraine). Other regions of the Ukrainian Carpathians occupy in the ranking the lower places: respectively Ivano-Frankivsk (15th place), Chernivtsi (21st place), Transcarpathian region (24th place).

Authors: Uthia Rahimatul , Ananda Elin Resti , Ifora Ifora
Published: December 2019

The body's defense system can be enhanced by certain compounds that are immunostimulant. An antibody titer is a measure of the body's level of immunity to a disease. Titers are usually expressed in terms of the number of times they can thin the blood until they cannot find any more antibodies. This study aims to determine the activity of the extracts of the leaves of Gynura Procumbens (Lour.) Merr. against antibody titers, the number, and percentage of leukocyte cells of white male mice. 25 mice were divided into 5 groups consisting of negative control, positive control, group dose 75 mg/kg body weight, 150 mg/kg body weight, 300 mg/kg body weight. The extract is given for 7 days orally. The results showed that the administration of leaf extracts can increase antibody titers and increase with increasing doses, as well as increasing the total number of leukocytes and the percentage of leukocyte cells significantly (P <0.05).
Culturomics: Reflections on the potential of big data discourse analysis methods for identifying research trends
Authors: Silber-Varod Vered , Eshet-Alkalai Yoram , Geri Nitza
Published: December 2019

This study examines the potential of big data discourse analysis (i.e., culturomics) to produce valuable knowledge, and suggests a mixed methods model for improving the effectiveness of culturomics. We argue that the importance and magnitude of using qualitative methods as complementing quantitative ones, depends on the scope of the analyzed data (i.e., the volume of data and the period it spans over). We demonstrate the merit of a mixed methods approach for culturomics analyses in the context of identifying research trends, by analyzing changes over a period of 15 years (2000-2014) in the terms used in the research literature related to learning technologies. The dataset was based on Google Scholar search query results. Three perspectives of analysis are presented: (1) Curves describing five main types of relative frequency trends (i.e., rising; stable; fall; rise and fall; rise and stable); (2) The top key-terms identified for each year; (3) A comparison of data from three datasets, which demonstrates the scope dimension of the mixed methods model for big data discourse analysis. This paper contributes to both theory and practice by providing a methodological approach that enables gaining insightful patterns and trends out of culturomics, by integrating quantitative and qualitative research methods.

Authors: Pietrzak Michał , Pietrzak Piotr , Baran Joanna
Published: December 2019

Higher education is a form of a merit good. This is why governments usually support the delivery of this good. However, one could doubt the efficiency of such solution. How well do public higher education institutions (HEIs) do their job? How to measure their performance? This paper discusses these issues. First, we discuss the problem of defining and measuring efficiency in the case of publicly held HEIs with particular emphasis put on the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method. Secondly, we present the results of our empirical investigation of efficiency assessed using the DEA method conducted on the sample of 33 Poland faculties specialized in social sciences . We use Charnes-Cooper-Rhodes (CCR) output oriented model with two inputs and three outputs. Next, we present some important differences in efficiency of those faculties. We also define benchmarks for inefficient HEIs and quantify the gaps to be fulfilled by them in order to become efficient. Finally, we pinpoint the directions of further research.
An empirical assessment of employee cyberslacking in the public sector: The social engineering threat
Authors: Hernández Wilnelia , Levy Yair , Ramim Michelle M.
Published: December 2019

Employees spend time during work hours on non-work related activities including visiting ecommerce Websites, managing personal email accounts, and engaging in e-banking. These types of actions in the workplace are known as cyberslacking. Cyberslacking affects employees’ productivity, presents legal concerns, and undermines the security of the employer’s network. This research study addressed the problem of cyberslacking in the public sector, by assessing the ethical severity of cyberslacking activities, as well as how employees perceived that the frequency of such activities occurred by their co-workers. Participants from public sector agencies were asked to report about their amount of time spent and frequency of cyberslacking, what they report about their co-workers’ amount of time spent and frequency of cyberslacking, as well as their perceived ethical severity of cyberslacking in the workplace. Comparisons of the measures were also conducted. Results from 183 participants indicate that employees report their co-workers to engage in cyberslacking significantly higher than what they reported about themselves, while ethical severity of cyberslacking was not considered to be high. Discussions and implications for future research are provided.

Encyclopedia of Modern Ukraine in the challenges of today
Authors: Zhelezniak Mykola
Published: December 2019

The article is devoted to the 5th anniversary of the electronic version of The Encyclopedia of Modern Ukraine (EMU) on the Internet (website: esu.com.ua). The study reveals the functions performed by the EMU can be better implemented due to its online version. These include accumulating of nationally relevant knowledge (about Ukraine, Ukrainians, Ukrainian phenomena and realities) and disseminating it in society, playing an important educational role, fos­tering patriotic feelings among Ukrainians based of this knowledge, understanding of national ideas, self-identifying, etc. The EMU website has high traffic, search engine positioning (Google), therefore, provides access to encyclopedic knowledge of a much larger audience than a printed version of this encyclopedia. The disadvantages of the online version of ESU are also highlighted. First of all, the words in the text are shortened like in paper encyclopedias, which have a reason to save space on the pages. There is also no English section. Today, English-language versions of the articles would contribute to destruct the stereotypes about Ukraine, its people, language, culture, history, etc., formed by the Soviet picture of the world (Pax Sovietica) as well as supported and deepened by followers of the Russian world (Pax Russica).

Ninety Japanese quail chicks with one day of age were reared in 340C temperature and continuously feed and water providing at the Faculty of Agriculture , University of Diyala animals’ field, vitamins were provided with water and temperature were monitored continuously. Birds were allocated for three treatments with convergent of weight average when reached the age of 14 days, each treatment contain three replicates and ten birds for each replicate, each replicate birds were rearing in cage with 50×50×50cm for four weeks (until 42 day of age), all treatments birds were provide with free same ration and chromium was added to the treatments ration as follows: control treatment: without chromium, treatment one (T1) adding 250μg (0.25mlg) chromium picolinate/kg ration, treatment two (T2) adding 500μg (0.5mlg) chromium picolinate/kg ration. After the period of the experiment finished, six birds were selected randomly from each treatment (three from each sex) and weighted then slaughtered, many measurements were taken from meat and carcasses, including hot and cold carcass weight, dressing percentage, carcass cuts weight, breast and leg cooking loss, thawing loss and meat chemical composition. Statistical analyses show that no clear effect of supplementation on these measurements and no real benefits from adding it with quail ration in this ratio and this experiment conditions and traits. It might be concluded that the chromium presented normally in ration and water was adequate to normal quail requirement and chromium supplementation may not be essential. Higher chromium ratio should be tested.

Published: December 2019

A field experiment was carried out in silty clay soil at Agricultural Research Station of Garmat Ali in order to study the effect of the plowing depths and manure application on soil moisture content at different soil depths (0-10 (d1), 10-20 (d2), 20-30 (d3), 30-40 (d4), 40-50 (d5) and 50-60 cm (d6)) and two periods (after plowing and after harvesting the sunflower crop). The experiment was conducted using an implement of plowing and manure mixing with soil, which consists of two main parts (two moldboard plows and two subsoilers).The implement was designed and manufactured in the Agriculture machines and Equipment Department in 2015. The treatments used in the study were included two levels of manure application (0 and 45.5 ton ha-1) and two plowing depths of moldboard plow (M) with three plowing depths of subsoiler (S). They were 20 cm of moldboard plow with 20, 30 and 40 cm of subsoiler (M20S20, M20S30 and M20S40), and 30 cm of moldboard plow with 10, 20 and 30 cm of subsoiler (M30S10, M30S20 and M30S30). The results showed that the soil moisture content (MC) was significantly decreased with increasing the plowing depths by the moldboard plows and subsoilers especially after soil plowing. While, the MC significantly increased with increasing the soil depth after the plowing and after harvesting the crop. In contrast, mixing the manure with soil at level 45.5 ton ha-1 by the manufactured implement increased the soil moisture content by 10.73% after the plowing and by 2.33% after the harvesting the sunflower crop compared with untreated soil with manure.

A 28 Actinomycetes isolates which collected from different environmental sources in Basra province were described as Gram positive and are characterized by producing branching hyphae. Two isolates were identified by molecular analysis of 16 S r RNA gene. Molecular identification confirmed that two isolates of Actinomycetes from soil had a similarity of 99% with Streptomyces griseus. The sequence has been deposited at NCBI with Gen bank accession number (NBRC 14886, AB 184627. 1). While the isolates of date palm roots was analogous to Brevibacterium celere and the sequence of this strain deposited at NCBI with Gen bank accession number (DQ164,K414744601). The dual culture technique showed that Actinomyces isolates 44 had high antagonistic activity against Rhizoctonia solani as inhibition zone reached 1.7 cm, in contrast to Actinomyces 24 and S. griseus which revealed a high antagonistic activity against Pythium sp. with inhibition zone reached 1.2 cm for both isolates. Pots experiment showed all Actinomyces isolates were significantly reduced cucumber seedling damping off caused by R. solani and Pythium sp. the disease incidence for R. solani damping off were reduced to 1.0% in actinomycetes 44, Actinomycetes 24 and B. celere treatment compared to 11.37 % in control treatment. Disease incidence at Pythium sp. damping off was reduced to 1.0% in Actinomycetes isolates compared with that in control treatment (4.33%). According to this study there is possibility for isolating Actinomycetes isolates which isolated from different environments sources have the ability for reducing cucumber damping off disease caused by R. solani and Pythium sp.

This study was undertaken at special sheep farm in Missan province. The study began at the 1st of September 2016 and ended at the 29th of December 2016. Sixteen female Arabi lambs, with an average age 210±5 days, and average body weight (23.88) Kg, were randomly divided into four groups as follows:. T1 as a control group, T2 treated with a dose of 0.5g genistein.head-1, T3 treated with a dose of 1g genistein.head-1. T4 treated with a dose of 2g genistein.head-1. All treatments were given genistein orally three times a week to investigate the effect of genistein treatment on sex hormones and reproductive organ development. The results showed significant (P<0.05) increase in concentrations of sex hormones (FSH, LH and estrogen) in female lambs treated 1g genistein for three times a week compared with control, T2 and T4 during the whole study period. The weights of the uterus, right ovary and ovary duct length of T3 group increased significantly (P<0.05) in comparison with TI group. There were no significant (P<0.05) differences observed between treated groups in left ovary weight. Treated of Arabi female lambs with different levels of genistein improved the development of uterus during puberty.

A field experiment was conducted in agricultural field in Al-Rumaitha, district 25 km north of Al-Muthanna city, during the agricultural season 2017/2018. The aim was to study the effect of spray of seaweed extract at 0, 1 and 2 g.l-1 on growth and yield of two varieties of wheat (Bhooth 22 and Eebaa 99). The experiment was applied according to split plot design with three replicates. The results showed that the increasing of the concentration of seaweed extract up to 2 g L-1 in spray solution led to increase some growth properties (plant height, leaf chlorophyll concentration, flag leaf area and spike length). In addition seaweed extract up to 2 g.l-1 lead to increase the number of spikes/m2, grain yield, and biological yield gave 31.85%, 39.05% and 39.79% respectively compared to the control treatment, while the concentration of seaweed extract up to 1 g.l-1 lead to increased 1 the number of grains per spike. The results revealed a difference in between the varieties in almost growth and reproductive traits. Bhooth 22 has the highest plant height, leaf chlorophyll concentration, spike length, and number of spikes/ m2, grain yield (5979 kg ha-1) and total biomass yield was and the highest biomass (13571 kg ha-1). The interaction between spraying of seaweed extract and varieties explained a significant effect on leaf chlorophyll concertation and biomass yield.
