Based on the perspectives of culture as a pillar of sustainable development advocated by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and the Quadruple Bottom Line (QBL), the aim of this study is to present the contributions of the Iberarchivos program to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Methodologically, it is an applied, exploratory, and descriptive study in terms of objectives, as well as bibliographic and documentary research in primary sources as technical procedures. After a critical reading of each strategic plan for the Ibero-American partnership (PACCI) for the period of 2019 to 2026, all the initiatives related to the Iberarchivos program for the achievement of sustainable development will be identified and described to map the existence of sustainable practices and actions intended for the Ibero-American archives in their activities. This work has identified efforts and movements that highlight the relevance of guaranteeing the right of access to information, culture, and memory for citizenship and the objectives of the SDGs of the United Nations 2030 Agenda, as well as mobilization with other social sectors for the development and monitoring of cultural public policies. The conclusion of this research is that the contributions of the Iberarchivos program are essential for achieving the SDGs, consolidating the QBL, and, above all, the richness and diversity of Ibero-American culture in building sustainable knowledge for society in general and the archival community, as well as democratizing access to culture.
Solving Advanced Missile Robotic Control Problem Via Integral Rohit transform
Authors: Gupta Rohit
Published: October 2024

The problem of robotic control of an advanced missile requires designing control systems for remote-controlled missiles with sufficient abilities. These control systems need to handle navigation, guidance, propulsion, and potentially other tasks like target acquisition and avoidance of obstacles. The various aspects of missile dynamics are described by complex and non-linear differential equations. Due to this, it becomes difficult to obtain their analytical solutions. During system design and analysis, to solve these complex and non-linear differential equations, numerical techniques like Euler’s technique, the Runge-Kutta technique, or more advanced mathematical techniques are generally used. The advanced missile robotic control problem is one of the problems represented by second-order linear differential equations. In this paper, the integral Rohit transform (RT) has been applied to solve an advanced missile robotic control problem. This transformation has never been applied in working out the advanced missile robotic control problem. This paper applies a new technique for solving the second-order linear differential equation representing the advanced missile robotic control problem to obtain its required turn angle so that it will be able to catch and destroy the attacker. The necessary graphs are plotted to illustrate the numerical solution of the robotic control of an advanced missile. It reveals that the integral Rohit transform (RT) technique is an effective technique to solve the advanced missile robotic control problem.
The effect of the noise on the dynamics of soliton generation in microresonator
Authors: A. Mezban Hawraa
Published: October 2024

The study demonstrated that noise changes the number of modes that can oscillate within the small cavity, and the spectral power is concentrated around the fundamental frequency. We also observed a reduction in the distortion that arises from the dispersive solitaire. This behaviour can be attributed to the magnitude of the pulse strength or the loss of its frequency due to the arbitrary interaction between the pulse train and the linear and nonlinear refractive index of the microcavity. The relationship between the dispersion and nonlinearity phenomena inside the microresonators is major in determining the inside field dynamics. The study showed that as the noise in microresonators cannot be cancelled, it is recommended to use a proper pulse width, intensity distribution, and power.
IN DEFENSE OF MISES’S THREEFOLD DIVISION OF ECONOMIC GOODS
Authors: Song Li
Published: October 2024

Mises divides economic goods into three categories: consumers’ goods, capital good, and medium of exchange (money). Barnett & Block (2005) argue that exchange is a form of production, and there are only two types of goods, consumers’ goods and capital goods, and consequently, money is a capital goods. Howden (2016) argues for adding a fourth category of economic goods: non-monetary financial assets. The purpose of this paper is to defend Mises’s trichotomy and to clarify that the treatment of the taxonomy of economic goods must always be subjected to the test of the objectives and scope of catallactics or price theory.

AFTER ATHEISM: A SOCIOLOGICAL EXAMINATION
Authors:   Kazakhstani Institute for Strategic research under the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan, Zabirova Aigul , Seidakhmetova Natalya ,   Ministry of Higher education and Science
Published: October 2024

The fall of communism and the collapse of the Soviet Union, the processes of nation building in five Central Asian states have changed the status of religion in these post-soviet countries. The religious freedom is recognized as one of the fundamental humans right in the Republic of Kazakhstan. This essay aims to highlight a unique form of secularism in Kazakhstan, one that is based on the low level of everyday religiosity and evidence that the eventual expansion of Islam in the physical and spiritual spaces does not negate the influence of established secular cultural attitudes. This study examines Kazakh religiosity through a comparative examination of World Values Survey data from 2011 and 2018. The examination of the features of religiosity and the proposition of the distinction between a believer and a religious person define this paper’s subject. The empirical data indicates that Islam has the capacity to transcend moral norms, despite the fact that the majority of Kazakhs' national attitude does not align with Islamic religion in the twenty-first century. Finally, the study draws the conclusion that since most people in post-atheistic Kazakhstan continue to keep secular attitudes, state policy must preserve the secular character of the state while adjusting state-confessional relations to changing Kazakhstan's religious landscape.

THE NATIONAL BUILDING POLICY IN KAZAKHSTAN: CIVIC OR ETHNOSOCIAL IDENTITY?
Authors:   Scientific Institute of Ulusa Juchi, Zhienbaev Miras
Published: October 2024

This study demonstrates how Kazakhstan, once entangled in the complex interaction between tradition and the challenges of modernity, is now actively shaping its national identity. Against the backdrop of the issues surrounding identity politics, nationalism, and post-Soviet transitional processes, this article sheds light on Kazakhstan's decisive steps in creating and exporting a unique national narrative in the realm of state-building. This narrative goes beyond simple adaptation of external models and reflects the country's growing academic and intellectual contribution to the global discourse on national identity formation. The article examines the synthesis of governmental efforts, public knowledge, and practical ideology that underpins the formation of national policy. Special attention is given to the fact that in the post-socialist space, Kazakhstan does not merely adhere to a policy of “de-Sovietization” but also redefines its policy as an expression of sovereign identity and national leadership. The study focuses primarily on the process of «Kazakhization» - a significant paradigm in the post-Soviet context. Unlike other post-Soviet narratives, which tend to criticize or deny history or use it merely as a political tool, the Kazakh approach is aimed at strengthening the multifaceted Kazakhstani identity. In this process, Kazakhstan balances between collective civic identity (Kazakhstani) and ethnonational Kazakh identity (Kazakh), reflecting a conscious departure from the rejection or opposition to the past. Instead, the country seeks to integrate and enhance its unique national essence.

Published: October 2024

Even with the expansion of the vendor network supply chain channel strategy research and the development of the nation's agricultural industry, there seems to be no empirical research on supply chain channel strategy as it relates to marketing performance of agricultural products’ firms. Particularly, it appears that there have not been studies on the relationship between supply chain channel strategy formulation within the agricultural industry in Nigeria. The lack of literature by scholars with respect to supply chain channel strategy in the agricultural industry to trigger innovations in channel techniques and strategies could properly be the root cause of ineffective marketing performance of agricultural products’ firms in terms of customer’s service, profitability and product availability. The researchers therefore sought to discuss this limitation, thereby bridging the acknowledged gap. Based on the objective of the study, a systematic survey was utilized to obtain information from 376 management staff of agricultural product enterprises, and three hypotheses were developed. The data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical techniques. The results demonstrated a favorable and significant association between marketing success of agricultural product companies and channel management. It was concluded that if supply chain channel strategy is well implemented, there would be an increase in marketing performance as measured by client fulfillment, profitability and product availability. Considering the results, it was recommended that sales, supply chain and marketing managers should manage their supply chain channels by placing more emphasis on channel strategy.

Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) occupy a leading position in the structure of all-cause mortality. Prospective and interventional studies have identified the major risk factors for CVD and shown their associations with the risk of cardiovascular outcomes and all-cause death. The impact on the individual risk of death may vary by age, sex, study design, and may be population-specific. We aimed to study the contribution of major CVD risk factors to the 15-year risk of all-cause death in the Russian (Siberian) population cohort aged 45–69 years.

Material and methods. A random population sample (men and women 45–69 years old, n = 9360) was examined at baseline in 2003–2005 (Novosibirsk, Russian branch of the HAPIEE project) and re-examined twice in 2006–2008 and 2015–2018. Current analysis included individuals without baseline CVD (n = 8087), the average follow-up period – 15.6 (SD 0.69) years. The fatal events were registered based on death certificates from the Population Registration Bureau (ZAGS), and using the data received at serial examinations and postal interview. We analyzed the association between CVD risk factors and all-cause death using multivariate Cox regression.

Results. In a cohort aged 45–69, in the adjusted model, 15-year risk of all-cause death was positively associated with age (HR = 1.08; 95 % CI 1.07–1.09), male sex (HR = 1.46; 95 % CI 1.24–1.71), hypertension (HT) (HR = 1.39; 95 % CI 1.25–1.55), smoking (HR = 2.37; 95 % CI 2.08–2.70), high WHR (HR = 1.19; 95 % CI 1.06–1.33), and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) (HR = 1.52; 95 % CI 1.34–1.73), and it was negatively associated with elevated total cholesterol (TC) or LDL-C in blood. In age- and sex-adjusted model, the risk was additionally associated with high triglycerides (HTG), obesity and elevated fasting plasma glucose (FPG). In men, the risk of death was independently associated with age, HT, smoking, low HDL-C, high WHR, and T2DM. In women, the risk of death was independently associated with age, HT, T2DM smoking, and, in age-standardized models, obesity, high WHR, and hyperglycemia.

Conclusions. In a population cohort of 45 years and older, among CVD risk factors male sex, HT, smoking, central obesity, and T2DM independently contributed to the risk of all-cause death. Among lipid parameters, low HDL-C and high TG levels increased the risk of death in men. Associations between cardiovascular risk factors and the risk of all-cause death in older people have the patterns specific for older age; these features are important to take into account in a strategy to reduce mortality in the population.
Analyzing Resampling Techniques for Addressing the Class Imbalance in NIDS using SVM with Random Forest Feature Selection

Published: October 2024

The purpose of Network Intrusion Detection Systems (NIDS) is to ensure and protect computer networks from harmful actions. A major concern in NIDS development is the class imbalance problem, i.e., normal traffic dominates the communication data plane more than intrusion attempts. Such a state of affairs can pose certain hazards to the effectiveness of detection algorithms, including those useful for detecting less frequent but still highly dangerous intrusions. This paper aims to utilize resampling techniques to tackle this problem of class imbalance in NIDS using a Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier alongside utilizing features selected by Random Forest to improve the feature subset selection process. The analysis highlights the combativeness of each sampling method, offering insights into their efficiency and practicality for real-world applications. Four resampling techniques are analyzed. Such techniques include Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique (SMOTE), Random Under-sampling (RUS), Random Over-sampling (ROS) and SMOTE with two different combinations i.e., RUS SMOTE and RUS ROS. Feature selection was done using Random Forest, which was improved by Bayesian methods to create subsets of features with feature rankings determined by Cumulative Feature Importance Score (CFIS). The CIDDS-2017 dataset is used for the performance evaluation, and the metrics used include accuracy, precision, recall, F-measure and CPU time. The algorithm that performs best overall in the CFIS feature subsets is SMOTE, and the features that give the best result are selected at the 90% level with 25 features. This subset accomplishes a relative accuracy enhancement of 0.08% than the other approaches. The RUS+ROS technique is also fine but somehow slower than SMOTE. On the other hand, RUS+SMOTE shows relatively poor results although it consumes less time in terms of computational time compared to other methods, giving about 50% of the performance shown by the other methods. This paper's novelty is adapting the RUS method as a standalone test for screening new and potentially contaminated datasets. The standalone RUS method is more efficient in terms of computations; the algorithm returned the best result of 98.13% accuracy at 85% at the CFIS level of 34 features with a computation time of 137.812 s. It is also noted that SMOTE is considered to be proficient among all resampling techniques used for handling the problem of class imbalance in NIDS, vice 90% CFIS feature subset. Future research directions could include using these techniques in different data sets and other machine learning and deep learning methods together with ROC curve analysis to provide useful pointers to NIDS designers on how to select the right data mining tools and strategies for their projects.

Published: October 2024

In the 21st century, pre-service mathematics teachers are expected to have problem-solving skills that are effective, efficient, and solutive and are in line with the mindset of computer experts. In learning mathematics, the concept of computational thinking (CT) is also needed and at this time, many still have difficulty solving mathematical problems in general, especially in solving problems in epidemic mathematical models. The subjects of this study were twenty-seven pre-service mathematics teacher students who took mathematical modeling courses. The researcher used the purposive sampling technique to select two research samples. The research method used was a descriptive qualitative research method in exploring the thinking process of pre-service mathematics teacher students in solving the problem of modeling the epidemic spread of disease. The results showed that the thinking process of the first subject began with identifying the problem and existing information by writing down the data in the form of a graph so as to get a certain pattern, which was then used as the basis for the process of transforming the problem into mathematical language. By adding assumptions related to the existence of environmental limitations in the next epidemic model, the concept of differential equations, in which there are integral properties and natural logarithms, can be used to find the solution to the epidemic model. The second subject was unable to solve the integral at hand. The researcher discovered that pre-service mathematics teacher students who correctly solved the problem in the mathematical model used CT components, namely decomposition, abstraction, pattern recognition, algorithm and mathematical literacy.

Published: October 2024

The education systems are experiencing a crisis globally as it is no longer enough for students to develop reading and numeracy skills alone. On the other end, the Happiness Index of India, 2024, showcases a poor stand universally, which has been proven to have a detrimental effect on academic performance and the holistic development of learners. In this line, the Happiness Curriculum (HC) was launched in Delhi, 2018, a first step in broadening the traditional public education system to embrace attention to the wholesome development of its students. This soon branched into Uttarakhand, a state ranked one among the three unhappiest states in the nation, under the name "Anandam Pathyacharya". Later, to measure student competencies developed through HC implementation, Brookings, 2020, developed and validated Student Competency Scale (SCS), a tool with 14 items across four subscales, namely Decision Making, Focus, Empathy and Relationships. Here, the scale was adopted and validated among 140 upper primary students in Uttarakhand, India, by incorporating standardised validation procedures such as Bartletts Test of Sphericity, Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin, Confirmatory Factor Analysis and Cronbach’s Alpha calculation using SPSS AMOS v26. Sample adequacy was confirmed (0.921). CFA confirmed the scales’ four-dimensional structure with strong factor loadings and model fit indices, while the internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha) was high (0.927). Thus, this validation endeavour establishes the scale as a reliable tool to gauge student competencies in the context of the HC. By highlighting the SCS's scientific foundations and how it might be applied to India's educational system, the study offers a scope to measure HC's impact on learners' development.

Published: October 2024

The position of the sun varies over the day and with the seasons, making it difficult for conventional fixed solar panel systems to achieve optimum energy production. By reorienting the panels to face the sun, solar tracking systems solve this problem. This study suggests a dual-axis solar tracker system that continuously adjusts the panels to stay perpendicular to sunlight in order to maximize energy capture. The system uses sensors to monitor the sun's elevation and azimuth angles. Light sensors, motor controllers, microcontrollers, control algorithms, and an Internet of Things (IoT) monitoring system are some of the system's essential parts. The microprocessor determines the ideal angles for panel alignment based on the location of the sun as detected by the light sensors. The motor driver then adjusts the panels appropriately. The sun's position is accurately and smoothly tracked using dual-axis tracking systems, which employ sensors to detect solar position and actuators controlled by sophisticated algorithms to adjust the panels accordingly. Real-time parameter monitoring of the solar panel is done using an IoT-enabled webpage. The study's findings show that the dual-axis solar tracker system performs noticeably better in terms of energy capture efficiency than fixed installations, especially in areas with high solar incidence angles and fluctuating sunshine.

Authors: Choudhury Sourav , Deb Joy Prakash , Pradhan Pratima , Mishra Aishwarya
Published: October 2024

Educators work in extremely dynamic and complex classroom environments where they must continuously alter and update their understanding. Specifically, possession of rich, organised, and integrated knowledge from various domains including knowledge on subject-matter, knowledge of students' thinking and learning, and, increasingly, knowledge of technology is essential. By integrating these three aspects, Mishra and Koehler developed the Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework in 2006 which offers a thorough and comprehensive method for incorporating technology into the education setting. On the parallel, use of information technology has rapidly increased in the field of education, especially with the introduction of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Thus, the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework needed to be updated to reflect the growing incorporation of AI into educational standards. Hence, investigator Ning and colleagues in the year 2024  built a framework for incorporating AI into TPACK and developed a robust scale titled Teachers AI-TPACK Scale that measures the teachers competencies in incorporating AI into their teaching environment. The objective of this work was to test the validity of the scale in the Indian educational setting. With a sample size of 660 teaching faculties in universities and colleges across India, this study followed the routine stages such as construct validity analysis in the form of Exploratory Factor Analysis using SPSS V27, followed by Confirmatory Factor Analysis in AMOS software. The original scale with 39 items across seven dimensions were retained throughout the validation process and resulted in a high reliability score of 0.907. This provides compelling evidence for the validity and reliability of the teachers AI-TPACK scale in measuring Indian educators' knowledge and skills at the juncture of AI with pedagogy, technology and content. This is currently the only scale available to measure this construct in India.

Authors: Sharma Rekha , Aggarwal Ankita
Published: October 2024

The rise of hybrid work arrangements, accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, introduced both challenges and opportunities for organizations and employees. This study seeks to examine the sustainability of hybrid work models by analyzing the role of leadership support (LS) and job satisfaction (JS) as mediators in the relationship between Quality of Work Life (QWL) and Work-Life Balance (WLB). Data were collected via online surveys from 343 valid respondent employees working in the private corporate sector in India who had experience in remote or hybrid work setups. The hypothesized relationships among the named variables were tested using the PLS-SEM approach, with a standard bootstrapping procedure employed to disclose direct and indirect effects among latent variables. The findings indicate that employees strongly preferred the hybrid work model over the traditional work setting. Also, it reveals that QWL positively influences WLB, with both LS and JS serving as significant mediators. Leadership support, in particular, emerged as a crucial factor in the hybrid work context, influencing job satisfaction among employees and helping to strike a good balance between their professional and personal lives. The novelty of this research lies in its empirical demonstration of how leadership support and job satisfaction mediate the relationship between QWL and WLB, providing actionable insights for organizations to navigate the complexities of hybrid work model. The study recommends that organizations should formalize hybrid work arrangements; prioritize leadership communication; conduct regular team-building activities and focus on outcome-based performance evaluations. These strategies will enhance job satisfaction, strengthen leadership roles, and promote long-term prosperity with a positive societal and ecological impact.

Quality of life is an individual's assessment of their life, which can be influenced by burnout. Burnout is a work-related stress syndrome characterized by emotional exhaustion, a sense of low achievement, and depersonalization. This condition can negatively impact the quality of service, performance, and overall health of clinic employees. The objective of this study is to examine the relationship between burnout and quality of life among employees at the Dent Smile Dental Clinic in Jakarta. The research design employed is a descriptive correlational method with a cross-sectional approach. The sampling technique utilized is purposive sampling. The study's findings indicate that among the 60 employees at the Dent Smile Dental Clinic in Jakarta, 19 employees (31.7%) exhibited low levels of burnout, 17 employees (28.3%) displayed moderate burnout, 10 employees (16.7%) experienced relatively high burnout, and 14 employees (23.3%) were categorized as having high burnout. Meanwhile, 38 employees (63.3%) were found to have a moderate quality of life, 10 employees (16.7%) had a high quality of life, and 12 employees (20%) had a very high quality of life. Data analysis using the Chi-square test revealed no significant relationship between burnout and quality of life among employees at the Dent Smile Dental Clinic in Jakarta (p = 0.633). It is recommended that future research explore other factors influencing burnout, such as length of service, age, and gender.

The collections he created, including osteological specimens of carnivorous mammals, have been mostly destroyed. So far, only a few specimens have been preserved, including the desman.
Wealth, Consumption, and Savings Patterns in Retirement: A Challenge to the Life-Cycle Hypothesis
Authors: Krupová Patrícia
Published: October 2024

This paper investigates the wealth, consumption, and savings behavior of elderly individuals through the lens of the life-cycle hypothesis. Using data from Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement, we employ Student's t-test to test differences between pre-retirement and retirement age groups. The findings shed light on the extent to which elderly individuals adhere to the life-cycle hypothesis and provide insights into the economic behavior of this demographic group. Our findings align with previous studies indicating that the life-cycle theory inadequately captures the dynamics of wealth, consumption, and savings during retirement age. According to our results, there is a consistent decrease in all examined variables with advancing age, with the lowest yet non-zero values observed among the oldest individuals.

The importance of managing the moral component of combat power in the context of combat operations
Abstract: Whatever the character of war, its scale or intensity are, the nature of war by its essential characteristics - uncertainty, chaos, friction and psychic pressure, generates the need to effectively manage the moral component of combat power. The warfare, a unique social phenomenon, characterized by extreme violence resulting from the desire of the parties involved to impose their will by force, accentuates this need. The contemporary battlefield, characterized by its extended lethality, imposes to the military commanders to adapt their approach in planning, preparation and execution of the operations. In this context, the management of the moral component represents a benchmark of the operational process, and the manner in which this process is conducted can serve to either multiply or, conversely, to reduce combat power. The main objective of this research paper is to identify empirical solutions for the effective management of the moral component of combat power in the modern battlefield. The results of the research provide, in particular for tactical level commanders, valuable guidance on the role and how to manage the moral component of combat power in the conduct of combat operations. Keywords: combat operations, combat power, morale component of combat power, will to fight.
Importanța gestionării componentei morale a puterii de luptă în contextul operațiilor specifice luptei armate
Rezumat: Indiferent de caracterul războiului, amploarea sau intensitatea sa, natura acestuia, prin caracteristicile sale esențiale - incertitudinea, haosul, fricțiunea și presiune psihică, generează nevoia de a gestiona eficient componenta morală a puterii de luptă. Lupta armată, un fenomen social unic, caracterizat de violență extremă rezultată din dorința părților implicate de a-și impune voința prin forță, accentuează această nevoie. Câmpul de luptă contemporan, prin letalitatea lui extinsă impune comandanților militari să-și adapteze modul în care abordează planificarea, pregătirea și execuția operațiilor. În acest context, gestionarea componentei morale reprezintă un reper al procesului operațional, modul în care acest proces este realizat putându-se constitui într-un factor multiplicator sau dimpotrivă demultiplicator a puterii de luptă. Obiectivul principal al acestui demers îl reprezintă identificarea empirică a unor soluții care să permită gestionarea eficientă a componentei morale a puterii de luptă în condițiile câmpului de luptă modern. Rezultatele cercetării oferă, îndeosebi comandanților nivelului tactic, repere valoroase în ceea ce privește rolul și modul de gestionare a componentei morale a puterii de luptă în desfășurarea operațiilor de luptă.
A REPRESENTAÇÃO DAS FIGURAS FEMININAS NAS MEMÓRIAS DE UM SARGENTO DE MILÍCIAS: REFLEXÕES E APONTAMENTOS
Authors: Fernandes Aline
Published: October 2024

Manuel Antônio de Almeida escreveu, entre 1852 e 1853, um dos romances de folhetim mais proeminentes da literatura brasileira: as Memórias de um sargento de milícias. Considerado um dos principais romances do romantismo brasileiro, o livro retrata o Rio de Janeiro no período joanino, quando a família real portuguesa desembarcou de mala e cuia no Rio, gerando novas regras e costumes na cidade. Diferentemente da maioria dos romances românticos da época, as Memórias retratam o cotidiano do povo e sua cultura, sobretudo, de Leonardo, o protagonista que se torna sargento de milícias. Orbitando ao redor do protagonista, quatro personagens femininas merecem destaque: Maria da Hortaliça, a comadre, Luisinha e Vidinha. O presente trabalho busca refletir e discutir a cerca desses tipos femininos dentro do romance e, por extensão, dentro da sociedade oitocentista.

Este ensaio tem como eixo central realizar um estudo comparativo acerca de dois poetas fluminenses quase esquecidos, senão inteiramente das gerações, Sempre residiram em Niterói. Seus nomes: Sílvio Figueiredo (1 891-1972) e Lili Leitão (1901-1936), cujo nome por extenso era Luis Antônio Gondim Leitão .Grandes amigos, trabalharam juntos com o objetivo de conseguir publicar os seu poemas sob o título Sonetos (1913). Seu desejo foi cumprido e os Sonetos finalmente, publicados, em 1913, pela Livraria Editora Jacinto Silva. Ficou mais que comprovado o papel saliente de ambos no tocante ao que ocorria no restaurante Café Paris, frequentado que era por boêmios, artistas, escritores do ambiente intelectual niteroiense. Era a época em que o Café Paris atingiu seu apogeu durante três décadas do século passado, quando o ambiente divertid.o alegre e descontraído desses grupos que lá se juntavam no período conhecido como a Belle Époque, os anos vinte e trinta até, aproximadamente os fins da década de 1931. Por conseguinte, os grupos de poetas divertidos e talentosos daquele período desfrutavam do prestígio da vida intelectual niteroiense, sobretudo, considerando as duas figuras mais proeminentes enfocadas neste ensaio que pretende empreender uma análise comparativa entre a poesia de um e de outro desses dois poetas de Niterói, realçando-lhes as diferenças e similaridades, quer na dicção, quer nos temas por eles explorados, i.e., examina as estruturas, estratégias e artifícios retóricos de cada um no tocante ao uso de uma forma fixa de poema, o soneto. Poder-se-ia acrescentar que esses grupos de escritores habitués do Café Paris oportunizam uma excelente pesquisa de um farto material literário a pesquisadores interessados em novos trabalhos acadêmicos voltados a investigar a poesia e os valores estéticos desses poetas como também de outros mais que frequentaram o Café Paris.
“A RELAÇÃO ENTRE A LÍNGUA PORTUGUESA E A LÍNGUA PROVENÇAL”
Authors: Xavier Ricardo
Published: October 2024

Nos séculos XII e XIII a língua e a literatura provençais assumiram uma posição de inquestionável preponderância no âmbito da cultura da Europa Ocidental. A língua provençal exerceu uma influência profunda sobre as outras línguas românicas, mormente na Galiza e no Condado Portucalense devido à presença considerável de falantes desta língua em função da aliança político-militar ibero-gálica contra os Mouros e também devido à concessão de extensos territórios a nobres da Gália para fins de colonização e prevenção de eventual reocupação, pelos Mouros, de terras já liberadas. Por conseguinte, vários fatos linguísticos duvidosos em galego e português somente podem ser esclarecidos através do provençal antigo, e o conhecimento deste se faz necessário para uma compreensão plena da gramática e do léxico de ambas as línguas.
O MITO NA ASCENSÃO DO “MITO” (BOLSONARO)
Authors: Fonseca Brandão José Eduardo
Published: October 2024

Na campanha eleitoral que resultou na ascensão do bolsonarismo (2018), muitas vezes o líder, Jair Messias Bolsonaro, recebeu a alcunha de “mito”, repetida com respeito e euforia pelos seguidores. É como se estivessem alertando sobre o procedimento que iria ocorrer. Mas não apenas a sociedade, como, também, os políticos profissionais de oposição e os entendidos de política se recusaram a prestar a devida atenção a esse pequeno aviso sobre o que estava se operando: Mito! Este é um trabalho sobre as eleições presidenciais brasileiras de 2018 e sobre os atos que podem ser caracterizados como integrantes da corrida eleitoral. Através de um estudo comparativo entre mitos, busca-se deduzir teorias gerais sobre sua estrutura e dinâmica, com a finalidade de cruzar essas teorias gerais com dados da realidade referentes a 2018 e tentando, ao menos, problematizar: será que a sociedade brasileira ensaiou algum tipo de mito ou de rito na ocasião da ascensão do bolsonarismo? O homem que levou a facada no bucho para nos “salvar” da corrupção, o “messias”.
