Authors: Sah Subhrajyoti Ranjan , J Sunil Gavaskar
Published: November 2022

In current times, users depend comprehensively on electronic communication ways such as electronic mails as it is considered a foremost source of communication. A vast amount of time is invested in electronic mail for communication in the information technology field, due to which electronic mail management has become a prominent feature among the mailing applications. Electronic mail classification comes under this type of management which helps the expert to eliminate the time invested during un-necessary mail reading. Also, the content of electronic mail is further used in the analysis for future prediction and reading behaviors in which a good mail classification system would reduce a lot of time and resources. Conventionally many other systems or methods are present and widely popular in the market but there is no such system that achieves high accuracy. This paper proposes a novel electronic mail classification system that is based ensemble technique which combines the result of many classifiers to achieve good accuracy.

Authors: Dutta Pritam , Shome Roshni , Chowdhury Dr. Dilip Roy
Published: November 2022

The paper describes most advanced ways of farming in agronomy. The key motive of this paper is to discuss the creation and monitoring of an IoT based aquaponic model on Indian crops such as paddy and its analysis. Aquaponics integrates both aquaculture as well as hydroponics, the planting of plants in groundwater within a circulation system. The result is beneficial products such as fish and crops as well as reducing nutrient pollution in aquatic habitats This paper includes automating the PH concentration and maintaining likewise for crops management for hence better results such as more yield and more income.The primary mechanism is to control the flow of water between the fish pond and the plant beds. The water usage will be 90% lower than the conventional way of farming. More growth will be seen because plants will face ample amounts of nutrients every time. Keyword : Aquaponic; IoT; Agriculture.
ПЕРВЫЙ ЧЕЧЕНСКИЙ УЧЕНЫЙ-ЯЗЫКОВЕД
Authors: Осмаев М.К.
Published: November 2022

Статья посвящена памяти Мациева Ахмата Гехаевича (1902 – 1968 гг.) – выдающегося ученого-лингвиста, основоположника чеченского национального языкознания, знатока нахских языков, внесшего огромный вклад в развитие чеченской письменности, автора первых научных работ по фонетике, морфологии и синтаксису чеченского языка. Интерес к изучению родного языка у Ахмата Мациева пробудился еще в юности, а затем это стало смыслом всей его жизни. Политические репрессии и 15 лет лишения свободы не смогли прервать его подвижническую деятельность – в общей сложности им опубликовано свыше 55 научных работ, подготовлено большое количество учебников чеченского языка, а также разного вида словарей, в том числе терминологических и орфографических. Главным трудом своей жизни Ахмат Мациев считал составление полного словаря чеченского языка, завершить который он не успел. Современники называли его «Чеченским Далем», но сегодня имя Ахмата Мациева известно лишь ограниченному кругу представителей научной интеллигенции Чеченской Республики, а его подвижническая деятельность не получила должного признания в публичном и музейном пространстве.
A görögországi migrációs politika áttekintése a 2019-2022. közötti időszakban
Authors: Csorba Éva
Published: November 2022

Görögország migrációs frontország révén kiemelt prioritást tulajdonít a migráció kezelésére. A 2015/16-os migrációs válság kialakulása óta a görög migrációs politika is számos változáson ment keresztül. Jóllehet, a napjainkban tapasztalt migrációs nyomás meg sem közelíti a 2015/16-os csúcsot, de a migrációs válság és annak utóhatása a görög politikai vezetést is rákényszerítette arra, hogy migrációs politikáját megreformálja, és felkészültebb legyen egy esetleges újbóli hullámra. A migrációs trendeket figyelembe véve megállapítható, hogy jelenleg az égei-tengeri szigetek helyett sokkal inkább a szárazföldi török-görög határszakaszra koncentrálódik a nemzetközi figyelem. A görög-török kapcsolatok nem a felhőtlen időszakukat élik és a konfliktus szerves eleme a migráció is. A migrációs együttműködés egyik kulcspontja az EU-Törökország nyilatkozat. Ugyanakkor az elmúlt időszak jól bizonyítja, hogy a Nyilatkozat végrehajtása mindkét fél részéről politikai elköteleződést is igényel. A görög kormányzat a görög-török migrációs konfliktust is taktikusan emelte európai dimenzióra, biztosítva ezzel, hogy nem marad egyedül a Törökországból érkező migráció kezelésének a problémájával, ami így már az EU-török kapcsolatoknak is a szerves részévé vált.
Tourism and Dutch Disease: a Panel Analysis For Selected South Asian Countries with Cross-sectional Dependence and Heterogeneity
Authors: Amin Sakib Bin , Khan Farhan , Nepal Rabindra
Published: November 2022

We investigate tourism-led Dutch Disease in the selected South Asian countries with data covering from 1980 to 2018 as no studies have been done from the South Asian perspective. We use recently developed robust panel econometric methods for this empirical analysis. Our results reveal
that concerning variables have long-run cointegrating relationship given their stationarity property and crosssectional dependency. The ARDL (PMG) and the panel DOLS show that tourism and economy are positively associated in the long run (0.17 and 0.12). We further reveal that increase in
tourism activities reduce manufacturing competitiveness in the long run (–0.19 and –0.11), which is a symptom of tourism-led Dutch Disease. Our results also confirm that the presence of Dutch Disease persists for a long time. Therefore, we suggest that policymakers can utilize
a part of the tourism-generated revenue for the mutual development of both the sectors to alleviate Dutch Disease in South Asia.

Published: November 2022

As of January 2022, 343 million cases of SARS-CoV-2 were reported globally. COVID-19 is a multi-faceted, multi-systemic illness in which all age groups are susceptible. A number of research findings have shown that COVID-19 is associated with dysbiosis, leading to the
development of local and systemic pathologies. It was found that the use of probiotics in the complex therapy of patients with COVID19 reduces the severity of the disease and the development of complications. According to the researchers, several mechanisms could
explain the therapeutic effect of probiotics, including the ability to suppress proinflammatory cytokine formation and modulate the functional activity of the immune system. In Russia, probiotics in the treatment of COVID-19 patients are only used to correct diarrhea, while literature suggests that probiotics have much greater therapeutic potential. Introducing oral bacterial therapy into the treatment and rehabilitation of COVID-19 patients requires further clinical trials.
TD 2745 - Coordenação entre as instâncias de governo e o papel do Ministério da Saúde no Sistema Único de Saúde
Authors: Piola Sérgio Francisco
Published: November 2022

O cumprimento dos princípios constitucionais de universalidade na cobertura, integralidade do atendimento e equidade do acesso, em um país federado, composto pela União, 5.570 municípios, 26 estados e um Distrito Federal, com um sistema de saúde de atribuições e responsabilidades compartilhadas entre as três esferas de governo e gestão descentralizada, em um contexto de entes federativos com grandes disparidades econômicas, sociais e administrativas, constitui um imenso desafio para o Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS). Como forma de preservar os princípios constitucionais do sistema, foram utilizados diversos instrumentos de reforço à coordenação entre as esferas de governo, entre os quais merecem destaque as transferências de recursos federais para os estados, o Distrito Federal e os municípios, os órgãos de gestão colegiada e a implementação de diversas iniciativas e experiências para melhorar a condução e a coordenação sistêmica em suas diferentes dimensões. Nesse contexto, este trabalho, a partir de uma revisão narrativa da literatura técnico-científica e de documentos legais, faz uma análise da experiência do SUS a partir das seguintes perspectivas: i) fundamentos constitucionais e legais que organizam o sistema; ii) experiência de implantação do SUS, procurando identificar os principais avanços, problemas e desafios; iii) identificação da relevância da coordenação federativa para o SUS, destacando, nesse sentido, a importância que tem sobretudo em países com as características do Brasil, bem como o papel do governo federal para dar o efetivo suporte ao alcance dos princípios constitucionalmente definidos para a área de saúde.
TD 2746 - Novas tecnologias e infraestrutura do setor elétrico brasileiro – armazenamento de energia em baterias
Authors: Silva Rogério Diogne de Souza e
Published: November 2022

Os sistemas de armazenamento em bateria (Battery Energy Storage Systems – BESS) vêm sendo implantados nos diversos sistemas do setor elétrico, da rede básica até o consumidor. Tal abrangência demanda diferentes modelos de negócio e estrutura regulatória. No Brasil, a agenda regulatória deve incluir o armazenamento de energia como serviço ancilar, a criação do modelo de operador do sistema de distribuição, o serviço de agente agregador para viabilizar usinas virtuais, e, pelo lado da demanda, os modelos de carga e descarga de baterias envolvendo o fornecimento ou compensação de energia elétrica com a concessionária de distribuição. Neste contexto, este estudo aborda as tecnologias de armazenamento em baterias, o estado da arte, as respectivas aplicações no setor elétrico e o cenário internacional e brasileiro, objetivando discutir as ações necessárias, aspectos relacionados a regulação e políticas, além de como estas novas tecnologias podem direcionar o planejamento da infraestrutura do setor elétrico no Brasil.

Stochastic dynamics of the fractal-fractional Ebola epidemic model combining a fear and environmental spreading mechanism
Authors: Rashid Saima , Jarad Fahd
Published: November 2022

Recent Ebola virus disease infections have been limited to human-to-human contact as well as the intricate linkages between the habitat, people and socioeconomic variables. The mechanisms of infection propagation can also occur as a consequence of variations in individual actions brought on by dread. This work studies the evolution of the Ebola virus disease by combining fear and environmental spread using a compartmental framework considering stochastic manipulation and a newly defined non-local fractal-fractional (F-F) derivative depending on the generalized Mittag-Leffler kernel. To determine the incidence of infection and person-to-person dissemination, we developed a fear-dependent interaction rate function. We begin by outlining several fundamental characteristics of the system, such as its fundamental reproducing value and equilibrium. Moreover, we examine the existence-uniqueness of non-negative solutions for the given randomized process. The ergodicity and stationary distribution of the infection are then demonstrated, along with the basic criteria for its eradication. Additionally, it has been studied how the suggested framework behaves under the F-F complexities of the Atangana-Baleanu derivative of fractional-order $ \rho $ and fractal-dimension $ \tau $. The developed scheme has also undergone phenomenological research in addition to the combination of nonlinear characterization by using the fixed point concept. The projected findings are demonstrated through numerical simulations. This research is anticipated to substantially increase the scientific underpinnings for understanding the patterns of infectious illnesses across the globe.
Pornografía, odio y libertad de expresión. Los argumentos de Ronald Dworkin
Authors: Toscano Manuel
Published: November 2022

A lo largo de su obra Ronald Dworkin ha planteado una cuestión crucial acerca de la libertad de expresión: ¿es un derecho tan importante que su protección exige permitir formas de expresión que consideramos despreciables, ofensivas o socialmente dañinas? En este trabajo me gustaría analizar la reflexión del filósofo en torno a tal cuestión, centrándonos en la pornografía y los discursos del odio. Estas formas de expresión constituyen un desafío para los defensores de esa libertad, pues nos obligan a revisar los argumentos tradicionales empleados en su defensa. Para ello, consideraré en primer lugar la cuestión de si existe un derecho a la pornografía y cómo se podría justificar. Después revisaré su polémica con autoras feministas como Catharine MacKinnon a propósito de la prohibición de la pornografía, pues varias de las cuestiones son pertinentes en relación con los discursos del odio. Para concluir examinaré el modo en que R. Dworkin replantea la defensa de la libertad de expresión, pues tiene relevancia en el contexto de la discusión sobre la penalización de los discursos del odio.
Integration of non-communicable chronic diseases (NCDs) and HIV/AIDS and mental health care through the involvement of chronically ill patients using empowerment evaluation
Authors: Van Deventer Claire
Published: November 2022

Background: The emphasis in health care in South Africa is gradually shifting to acknowledge the different roles patients have regarding their own care. There is, however, very little evidence of this practice and of related practical outcomes.Methods: In the North West province, empowerment evaluation was used as the vehicle for patient engagement in integrating and improving services for chronically ill patients, namely those with non-communicable diseases (NCDs), HIV and mental illnesses at primary health care (PHC) clinics. This research was designed as an additional intervention in an ongoing quality improvement (QI) cycle, which had started in 2007. Empowerment evaluation shares many participatory action research qualities with an emphasis on collaboration, emancipation and the creation of new knowledge but with the additional aspect of evaluating and monitoring the processes that have been co-developed.Results: After 62 visits to 9 facilities over a year and after capturing 332 patient and health worker opinions and ideas, many interventions were implemented leading to improved flow at clinics, a heightened awareness of good services, interesting performance-measuring tools and patient/staff teams that acknowledged their symbiotic strength. Objective measurements comparing clinics that had been exposed to the Integrated Chronic Disease Model (ICDM, which is explained in the article) and those with the collaborative patient/staff groups showed no significant difference in clinical outcomes or waiting times. However, waiting time had improved across one sub-district. This may be because the ICDM clinics have been functioning for four years and the research clinics for only one year. There have also been many external influences on the project, such as a number of new doctors appointed at clinics, under the National Health Insurance pilot project, a high turnover of staff, a new chronic drug policy, stable patients being able to access their medication at external ‘pick-up points’ and others.Conclusions: It was found that the potential of patients and patient–staff collaboration are being under-utilised in a resources-trained sector where the harnessing of this potential might contribute positively towards QI in health.
La “relativité” du Christianisme comme unique religion du salut
Authors: Kalamba Mupoyi Augustin
Published: November 2022

Plusieurs générations chrétiennes ont été convaincues que le christianisme était la seule vraie religion du salut parce qu’il a eu l’audace de dire que Dieu est venu dans l’histoire et y a posé des actes de salut. Et cela a influencé un langage de l’exclusivité. Cependant, la proximité physique des grandes religions du monde et la connaissance que nous en avons aujourd’hui, ne nous obligent-elles pas d’abandonner ce discours exclusiviste? Et la théologie chrétienne des religions ne devrait-elle pas, à partir des “relativités immanentes” au christianisme, faire place à un langage de relativité? Dans ce cas, comment alors conserver la singularité du christianisme comme religion de salut? Voilà les questions auxquelles l’auteur tente de répondre dans cet article.

Published: November 2022

1950-60’lı yıllardaki malzeme odaklı hareketlilik, plastik sanatlarda İngilizce söylemiyle “mixed media” olarak adlandırılan yeni tür eserler ortaya çıkarmıştır. Temel ifadeyle, ilgili plastiğin alanı dışında kullanılması olan “mixed media” öncelikle ressam ve heykeltıraşların eserlerinde kâğıt ve buluntu nesnelerle birlikte tekstil malzemelerini kullanmalarıyla başlamıştır. Araştırmada betimsel modele dayalı, sorgulayıcı ve yorumlayıcı bir yaklaşımla nitel yöntem izlenmiş, bu doğrultuda Türkçe literatürde karışık malzeme ve/veya karışık teknik olarak geçen İngilizce “mixed media” söyleminin plastik sanatlar ve lif sanatındaki anlamları değerlendirilmiştir. Ortaya çıkan bulgular ışığında lif sanatı ve plastik sanatlarda öncü olan 1950’lerin ikinci yarısı ile 1960 ve 1970’li yıllar aralığındaki, lif ve tekstil malzemesi ile tekstil tekniği içeren ilk karışık medya çalışmalar, analiz edilmek üzere, seçilmiştir. Bu eserler, plastik sanat, çağdaş sanat gibi farklı alanların yanında içerdikleri tekstil malzemeleri ve tekstil teknikleri açısından lif sanatı kapsamında da kabul görmüş ve araştırmada betimsel olarak analiz edilmişlerdir. Araştırmanın sonucunda lif sanatında öncü karışık medya eserlerin lif sanatının malzeme repertuvarını genişleterek kendilerinden sonra gelecek olan lif sanatında karışık medya ortamını şekillendirdikleri görülmüştür.

Authors: Z.A. Zuparova , G.M. Ismoilova
Published: November 2022

Modern pharmaceutical practices are characterized by a variety of available dosage forms, but among all dosage forms, tablets are a dominant form.

This work is a dedicated determination of the authenticity of tablets developed based on raw materials of the medicinal plant Echinacea purpurea with immunomodulatory action. The purposeful preparation of drugs with immunomodulatory effects that are capable of nonspecifically stimulating the immune system and increasing the body's resistance to any pathogens is of particular importance.

In this work, the optimal composition of excipients was selected to provide necessary quality indicators for the developed tablets; the quality of the proposed and selected composition of tablets based on dried E. purpurea juice was determined.

The studied tablets called "Immunacea bio" are round, flat-cylindrical, and light brown in colour with patches and smell of vanillin.

In terms of appearance, average weight and deviations from the average weight, disintegration, authenticity and microbiological purity, these tablets comply with regulatory documents. This article developed a method for determining the authenticity of active ingredients and excipients by thin-layer chromatography and determined optimal chromatography conditions, and developers of the active ingredients and excipients.

Published: November 2022

O presente artigo tem como objeto de análise a inclusão do tema “Processos Administrativos de Apuração de Responsabilidade” – processo administrativo sancionador que visa apurar as irregularidades cometidas por Pessoas Jurídicas em desfavor da Administração Pública durante o processo licitatório ou durante a execução contratual – em cursos internos da Polícia Militar do Paraná, sobretudo no Curso de Formação de Oficiais. Tal proposta visa difundir o tema, pouco conhecido até então, no âmbito da Corporação, qualificando os militares estaduais nomeados como Membros e Presidentes de Comissões Processantes dos referidos Processos, evitando-se incorreções que possam levar à nulidade destes, e, por consequência, mácula à Corporação e prejuízo à Administração Pública. A metodologia empregada embasou-se em elementos bibliográficos e estatísticos, obtendo-se resultados que comprovam a crescente relevância do tema e nomeação de Oficiais Subalternos em funções essenciais ao desenvolvimento dos trabalhos. Diante do estudo, conclui-se essencial a inclusão do Processo Administrativo de Apuração de Responsabilidade como disciplina autônoma do 3º ano do Curso de Formação de Oficiais, apresentando-se proposta de Plano de Disciplina para tal, bem como a criação de Curso de Capacitação, na plataforma de Ensino à Distância da PMPR, visando qualificar os demais militares estaduais nomeados como Membros de Comissões Processantes.
Translation in global health emergencies
Authors: Diao Hong
Published: November 2022

The link between translation and global health is an important yet under-researched topic. COVID-19 has opened a significant responsibility and a vast space for translation scholars in approaching this topic. Starting from a brief survey of research on translation and global health, this article examines the roles of translators and interpreters in knowledge translation, and thus in the combat against COVID-19 pandemic by investigating two cases, i.e., Handbook of COVID-19 Prevention and Treatment and Jin Ji’s interpreting service in Italy. It is revealed that translators and interpreters have functioned as initiators, messengers, and co-producers of COVID-19 knowledge and they, in collaboration with other actors (health practitioners, medical researchers, policymakers, etc.), have contributed to the empowerment of patients and ordinary citizens in the fight. The author argues that translation plays an indispensable part in the transcendence of frontiers (sectorial, disciplinary, cultural, and geographic) in knowledge translation, especially during global health emergencies.
Rescrever Bei Dao: poesia Menglong 朦胧诗 em língua portuguesa
Authors: Huang Lin
Published: November 2022

Considerado um dos poetas de vanguarda da poesia moderna chinesa, mais especificamente da corrente Menglong 朦胧, Bei Dao desfruta de uma vasta tradução e boa recepção internacional. Aliás, no mundo de  língua portuguesa, o poeta ainda não teve a mesma atenção quer na tradução, quer na crítica literária como em outras línguas. Dado esse facto, o presente artigo visa oferecer uma breve panorâmica sobre o poeta Bei Dao, a sua poesia e a época em que viveu para o mundo da língua portuguesa. A partir disso, explora as questões de “traduzibilidade” e “chinesidade” discutidos ao longo da disseminação da poesia de Bei Dao. Com o foco nesses dois elementos, avançamos um estudo sobre a tradução da poesia de Bei Dao ao português à luz do conceito de “reescrita” de André Lefevere (1992), da teoria dos polissistemas de Itamar Even-Zohar (1990), e das normas de Gideon Toury (2012).
Cultural implications of the nouns 'Debt'/'Duty' in Russian and English with respect to translation problems
Authors: Mirzoyeva Leila
Published: November 2022

The article investigates correspondency between national world view in source and target languages and problems related to the concepts rendering while translating texts from English into Russian and vice versa. The aim of this research is to study one of the important concepts representing Russian national world view i.e. a conceptualized word DUTY/ДОЛГ on the one hand, and two corresponding English words such as DUTY and DEBT, on the other hand. In order to show the discrepancies between those concepts in English and Russian cultures, comparative research technique has been used. The author compared data excerpted from the British National Corpus (BNC) and the Russian National Corpus (RNC). As a result, it is necessary to underline that mutual understanding of interlocutors who use different systems of cultural, social and moral values, is based on the adequate perception of the concepts represented in different languages. Otherwise, dissimilarity of those concepts predetermines lack of understanding and may even cause communicative failure (especially in case of choosing inappropriate word in target language in the process of translation). While translating literary texts an interpreter should take into account the shades of meaning as well as the crucial differences in national world view between source and target languages.
There Are No Secrets
Authors: Brook Peter
Published: November 2022

Peter Brook is the most consistently innovative director in Western theatre. In these three essays he returns to the concept of his first book The Empty Space and examines what that means for the life of a production. How can a company establish its own "empty space" - a rehearsal and performance environment which will encourage the actors to abandon the security of the hackneyed and release their true creativity?

The potency of Brook's writing lies in his ability invest general truths with fresh vigour and to be as simple as he is profound.
The Shifting Point
Authors: Brook Peter
Published: November 2022

Hailed as 'the theatrical event of this century' (Sunday Times), Peter Brook's unique dramatization of India's great epic poem, The Mahabharata played to ecstatic audiences worldwide. In The Shifting Point, one of theatre's great visionaries assesses the lessons of his pioneering work from his brilliant debut at Stratford and the West End in the 1960s to the triumphant success of The Mahabharata. With the bravura and insight of a great practitioner and explorer he reveals some of the inspiration behind his extraordinary career.

Published in Bloomsbury's Revelations series, Brook's account covers many of the groundbreaking productions that cemented his reputation as 'one of the artistic geniuses of our time' (San Franciso Herald): his controversial productions of King Lear and Romeo and Juliet; the three-month period in Africa which culminated in The Conference of the Birds; Marat/Sade; filming King Lear and Lord of the Flies, and the epic The Mahabharata. With Brooks's reflections on the problems of Shakespeare and opera, and on a range of modern theatre artists including Grotowski, Gordon Craig and Samuel Beckett, The Shifting Point provides a uniquely revealing account of 4 decades of artistic exploration.

'The great thing about Brook is that, in a medium where others provide answers, he keeps asking questions. This sage and stimulating book shows that, inside a sophisticated adult mind, lurks the intemperate curiosity of a child; which is the mark of genius.'(Michael Billington, Listener)
A Plot and the Death of Peppe Carafa
Authors: D'Alessio Silvana
Published: November 2022

Events remain tumultuous. Some knights, unwilling to approve the
capitoli, decide, in accord with the viceroy, to kill Masaniello and to
punish the people of the low quarters. One chronicler furnishes wellknown
names of plotters. There is a failed attempt on Masaniello’s
life, in the church of the Carmine, at the hands of bandits led by the
Perrone brothers. The cardinal is again ambiguous and cagey; a bandit
is found in his room. The seventeenth-century sources let us piece
together minutely one of the revolt’s most dramatic days, topped off
with the murder of Peppe Carafa, one of the proudest nobles in Naples.
The Funeral
Authors: D'Alessio Silvana
Published: November 2022

This chapter describes Masaniello’s majestic funeral, citing close witnesses.
The ceremony, with its eloquent grave symbols – Christian, civic,
and military – bespeaks multiple desires: of the viceroy, loath to figure
as the killing’s chief backer; of the people, keen to show its unwillingness
to forget Masaniello, whom they identify with the wins obtained.
Popular grief for Masaniello’s atrocious death waxes in synchrony
with regret and fear, spurring majestic prayers and wild keenings for
a man who, in death, assumes a martyr’s, even a saviour’s aura. In
some litanies to the Madonna he is called liberator of the fatherland.
The Eighteenth Century: People and
Plebeians
Authors: D'Alessio Silvana
Published: November 2022

In the Eighteenth century, some texts on Masaniello remained in
manuscript. Among them is Francesco Oliva’s Napole acquietato,
written in Neapolitan, where Naples prays God for succour. So God
sends Masaniello. The publication of Modène’s work (1665-1666) laid a
foundation for other historical and literary works (Midon, de Lussan,
Meißner), where the Neapolitan capopopolo is handled more gently
than in Giraffi’s rendering, which has him dashing towards ambition,
madness and tyranny. Although Giraffi is still read, in the city when
democratic revolution comes (1799) Masaniello is exalted as a fellow
patriot by the new republican patriots. His true nature counts for
little: Eleonora Pimentel de Fonseca, Vincenzo Cuoco and other
writers exalt him as a worthy capopopolo.
Introduction: Material Culture and
Mysticism in the Persianate World
Authors: Hedayat Munroe Nazanin
Published: November 2022

Introducing the relationship between weaving and poetry, this chapter presents
the study as one bringing together seemingly disparate elements as the foundation
of early modern cultural and behavioural norms. Nizami Ganjavi (d. 1209) is
cited as the poet whose Khamsa (Quintet) codified two legendary romances:
‘Khusrau and Shirin,’ a love story about besotted royals from Iran and Armenia,
respectively; and ‘Layla and Majnun,’ a tale of young Bedouin lovers separated
by family strife. Both tales take place in the pre-Islamic era, yet are adapted to
medieval Islamic audiences, with strong Sufi mystic references embedded in the
text. The Persianate realm is introduced as a broad transnational expanse from
Iran to South Asia, unified in the early modern period by the Persian language
and Sufi literature.
Meticulous Matrices: Building a
Chronology of Albrecht Dürer’s
Meisterstiche Impressions through
the Analysis and Documentation of
Microscopic Scratches in His Engraved
Plates
Authors: Campbell Angela
Published: November 2022

This chapter reviews the methods and results of an in-depth comparative
study of Albrecht Dürer’s three meisterstiche – Melencolia I, Knight,
Death, and the Devil, and St. Jerome in His Study. As a plate is prepared
for printing, hard and sharp fragments of burr residue and inclusions in
the printing ink are repeatedly rubbed across the matrix: fine scratches
appear on the surface of the plate almost immediately and the crisp
edges of the engraved areas are gradually worn down, making the cut
lines softer and less well-defined. By digitally recording and comparing
the marks of deterioration on each of the meisterstiche impressions, this
study reconstructs a chronological sequencing method for individual
impressions to offer new, diverse information about Dürer’s work.
Visual Tools and Searchable Science in
Early Modern Books
Authors: Kruse Britta-Juliane , Leitch Stephanie
Published: November 2022

This chapter investigates visual tools in sixteenth-century manuscripts
and early printed books. By presenting data in useable and searchable
formats, printers of short, pithy vernacular pamphlets effectively rewired
the emphasis of older genres. This trajectory by which ancient knowledge
domains became how-to data can perhaps best be tracked in the Liber
Quodlibetarius, a codex produced in southwestern Germany c. 1524,
which curiously imported images from a variety of printed genres into
a hand-produced manuscript form. The sovereignty of images derived
from cosmography, hippiatria, chiromancy, and metoscopy can provide
important clues about their reception as data, namely, how those genres
were cross-referenced, collected, and shaped up for a new visually attentive
vernacular viewer.

Authors: Hall Kirch Miriam
Published: November 2022

Combined with the shocking documentation of his life in Nuremberg in the 1520s,
erotic prints such as Die Nacht have long served to support the scholarly presentation
of Sebald Beham as a nonconformist. The problem with such interpretations
is that Die Nacht is dated 1548, nearly two decades after Beham had moved to
Frankfurt am Main. This chapter therefore places the print in the Frankfurt
context. Setting Die Nacht and Beham’s late life against the catastrophe of the
Schmalkaldic War, the chapter fills in its sketch with details of the twice-yearly
Frankfurt fair and humanists in city government. The evidence suggests that far
from being a permanent outsider, in Frankfurt Beham transformed into a true
insider – and an intelligent businessman.
Lust in Translation: Agency, Sexuality, and
Gender Configuration in Pauwels Franck’s
Allegories of Love
Authors: De Mambro Santos Ricardo
Published: November 2022

Usually referred to as Allegories of Love, the four paintings at the Kunsthistorisches
Museum of Vienna created by Pauwels Franck (1540‒1596), aka Paolo Fiammingo,
present scenes of almost choreographic sexual encounters and love-related narratives.
The visual strategies adopted by the artist in these moralising stories,
along with their interconnected iconographies, appear in line with the debate
on sexuality and gender expectations promoted in sixteenth-century Venice,
reflecting ideals conveyed by contemporary treatises on love. Powerful in their
representations, these images endorse the trope of Honest Lust, which stresses
the temporary legitimacy of depicting potentially indecent images for morally
instructive purposes, thus allowing the beholder to visualise – and virtually
experience – forms of (mis)behaviour pertaining to the taboo-filled domains of
sexuality and social normativity.
Touch: On Giovanni Lanfranco’s Saint Peter
Healing Saint Agatha
Authors: Cornea Bogdan
Published: November 2022

Chapter Two explores the relationship between touch and the sacred in Giovanni
Lanfranco’s Saint Peter Healing Saint Agatha. The chapter rethinks the relationship
between sight and touch and the implication it has in the economy of the
painting and the beholder’s relationship with the figure of Saint Agatha. It
argues for an understanding of touch as a new form of contact in separation. We
are encouraged to contemplate the untouchable encountered in touching – and
witness the desire to touch what can never be touched – the miracle of the
divine working through matter, the miracle of transforming the figure of Saint
Agatha into a distinct and sacred image. For the wound of the Saint Agatha
marks the moment when the intense materiality of her body violently erupts
within representational order to impose its own truth: the sacred made visible
through martyrdom and sacrifice.
Flesh: On Georges de La Tour’s Penitent
Saint Jerome
Authors: Cornea Bogdan
Published: November 2022

Chapter Four explores the relationship between paint and flesh in the creation of
violence in Georges de La Tour’s Penitent Saint Jerome. Building on the previous
chapter’s research on the potentiality of paint to become either skin or flesh, this
chapter focuses on how materiality becomes open flesh. By drawing comparisons
with the works of other artists, La Tour is shown to have used the impasto technique
to displace the violence of flagellation; this act of displacement is twofold: for the
wounds on Jerome’s back are made visually present through the open surfaces
rendering his face and hands, surfaces which confront the beholder with an open
body. This violence that unfolds on the surface of the canvas is unexpectedly
thrown at the beholder through an unexpected gaze that stares back at us from
the corner of the canvas.
Getting to the Holy Land: Franciscan
Journeys and Mediterranean Mobility
Authors: Tramontana Felicita
Published: November 2022

This chapter studies the networks that connected the Franciscan province
of the Holy Land to continental Europe. These networks – originally
created to facilitate the transfer of alms to Jerusalem – ensured the movement
of money, people, and objects between Europe and the eastern
Mediterranean. The chapter analyzes this circulation in its various facets:
the paths followed by people and objects, the means of transport, the
role played by institutions in making movement possible. Taking the
analysis of the friars’ itineraries to Jerusalem and the Middle East as
its point of departure, the chapter reassesses the role played by early
modern networks in facilitating mobility across the Mediterranean and
in integrating short-and long-distance movements.
Prophecies and Omens of the Fall of
the Roman Empire in the Chronicle of
Hydatius of Lemica
Authors: Marzo Laura
Published: November 2022

This chapter analyses the historical conception, which presents a strong
apocalyptical connotation, of the Chronicle of Hydatius of Lemica. Eyewitness
to the historical events of his time, Hydatius asserts that the end of
the empire (finis imperii), perceived as imminent, coincides with the end
of times (finis temporum) and the advent of Judgement Day, as the massive
presence of prophecies and omens of the break-up of the Roman empire
denotes. Particular attention will also be paid to the analysis of the quote of
the apocryphal Apocalypse of Thomas, which influenced the catastrophic
eschatology of Hydatius and his interpretation of the coeval historical course.
The Contemplation of the Past in the
Libellus Precum of Faustinus (and
Marcellinus)
Authors: Fernández Ubiña José
Published: November 2022

The Arian controversy, which, at the beginning, was nothing but a theological
debate around the figure of Christ, very soon became the identity flag
of the most important ecclesial factions of the fourth century. Although
ideologically very close to the victorious Catholic faction, the authors
of the Libellus precum lament the moral degradation of the victors and
the opportunism of countless heretical clerics who have not hesitated to
join the winning side. The faithful to the true doctrine, in whose name
the Libellus is written, ask for protection from the emperor Theodosius,
appealing to a social and religious past that they reconstruct from their
peculiar and interested point of view, with abundant illustrations, positive
and negative, of the Hispanic Church.
The Liminality of an East-Central European Hamlet – Rose Tremain’s The Road Home as an Adaptation of William Shakespeare’s Hamlet
Authors: Harasztos Ágnes
Published: November 2022

Rose Tremain’s The Road Home explores the experiences of an Eastern European immigrant. The English literary discourse on this experience takes the form of a pastiche which reinterprets Shakespeare’s play Hamlet. Hamlet’s liminality, experienced as a young and lonely rebel, and Lev’s hybridity, which he experiences in a cross-cultural position, is manifested in the same patterns. Tremain’s book follows Hamlet in showing liminality through madness, scenes of a theatre, and death as memory. These common features also share the important aspect of seeming instead of knowing which is a Kierkegaardian idea of non-existence. Following Edward S. Casey’s argumentation that Kierkegaard’s ideas are in accordance with Hamlet’s dilemma of whether to hesitate and think or to act and decide, this study investigates the scope of liminality in the character of Lev as an East-Central European Hamlet.
The Relationship Between Foreign Language Anxiety in ESP Students and English Test results
Authors: Strati Gjergo Ekaterina , Meçe Daniela
Published: November 2022

Foreign Language Anxiety is often seen as a factor that prevents language learners from successfully learning a foreign language. Many researchers note that foreign language anxiety is one of the most outstanding individual differences to predict the learners’ success. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the foreign language anxiety in the students learning English for specific purposes (ESP) and the relationship between foreign language anxiety and English test results. 176 university students of English for specific purposes at various study programs at Aleksander Moisu University participated in the given study. The Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety Scale (FLCAS) was used to measure foreign language anxiety. The scores obtained in the Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety Scale correlated with the students’ mid-term exam results in the ESP course. Results of the study indicate that foreign language anxiety is a problem among ESL students, and it has a significantly negative correlation with the students’ results in ESP.
Sea level rise vulnerability assessment for State wildlife areas surrounding Humboldt Bay, northern California

Humboldt Bay has the highest rate of sea level rise (SLR) in California (47.2 cm/century). Due to compaction and tectonic subsidence, former tidelands and pastures behind dikes surrounding Humboldt Bay are lower in elevation than bay waters at high tide. Adaptation to future climate change and SLR requires that resource managers understand vulnerability and risk to each wildlife area at a local level, because adaptation to SLR is a risk-based management strategy against an uncertain future requiring site-specific solutions. We conducted a vulnerability assessment of the shoreline of three State wildlife areas surrounding Humboldt Bay: Elk River (ERWA), Fay Slough (FSWA), and Mad River Slough (MRSWA). Breaching of shorelines that border each refuge has the potential to flood a diversity of wetland communities, wildlife habitats, and critical infrastructure within the historic tidal inundation footprint. The total length of diked 1-m shoreline segments potentially impacted by SLR was 6.2 km. The relationship between vulnerability and elevation of diked shoreline segments was significantly correlated for all wildlife areas. Vulnerability of diked shoreline was significantly affected by the type of surface covering. MRSWA had the highest percentage of shoreline fortified with concrete and rock (62.2% [2,876 m]), followed by ERWA (0.3% [2,815 m]). ERWA and FSWA had the greatest percentage of shoreline anchored by vegetation (99.3% [2,834 m] and 91.5% [3,385 m], respectively); FSWA had the highest percentage of unvegetated (i.e., exposed) shoreline (7.4% [252 m]); and ERWA had the highest percentage (86.6% [436 m]) of diked shoreline followed by FSWA (69.2% [633 m]) and MRSWA (33.0% [276 m]). The highest overall ratings of shoreline vulnerability were at ERWA (91.7%), followed by FSSWA (72,4%), and MRSWA (34.4%). Issues related to retention of unique characteristics of each wildlife area, natural resources and species at risk, and adaptive planning for future SLR are discussed.
Evidence of localised Amazon rainforest dieback in CMIP6 models
Authors: Parry Isobel M. , Ritchie Paul D. L. , Cox Peter M.
Published: November 2022

Abstract. Amazon forest dieback is seen as a potential tipping point under climate change. These concerns are partly based on an early coupled climate–carbon cycle simulation that produced unusually strong drying and warming in Amazonia. In contrast, the fifth-generation Earth system models (Phase 5 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project, CMIP5) produced few examples of Amazon dieback under climate change. Here we examine results from seven sixth-generation models (Phase 6 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project, CMIP6), which include interactive vegetation carbon and in some cases interactive forest fires. Although these models typically project increases in area-mean forest carbon across Amazonia under CO2-induced climate change, five of the seven models also produce abrupt reductions in vegetation carbon, which indicate localised dieback events. The northern South America (NSA) region, which contains most of the rainforest, is especially vulnerable in the models. These dieback events, some of which are mediated by fire, are preceded by an increase in the amplitude of the seasonal cycle in near-surface temperature, which is consistent with more extreme dry seasons. Based on the ensemble mean of the detected dieback events we estimate that 7±5 % of the NSA region will experience abrupt downward shifts in vegetation carbon for every degree of global warming past 1.5 ∘C.
