Authors:   National Library of Russia, Saint Petersburg, 191069, Russian Federation, Shcherbakova Anna E.
Published: March 2024

This article is devoted to the visual language of children’s books and magazines of the first third of the XIXth century on the theme of art. The cultural and historical context of the development of illustrated literature on this topic is considered. The most popular plots and the artistic features of the published images are identified. A comparison is made of illustrations in Russian-language versions of books and foreign originals. The relationship between the publication format and graphic content is determined, as well as the options for interaction between text and picture. The most striking examples of domestic early printed books reflecting the trends of the era under consideration were selected for this work. These are children’s encyclopedias, alphabet books, biographical and game editions. The result of the research is the reconstruction of the situation of illustrating children’s art literature in Russia in the 1800– 1820s. It has been established that children’s book publishing of this period hardly sought to talk about art as such. It often appeared in the content of publications with other goals. Nevertheless, the authors of the books managed to cover certain aspects of art. These include types of art, artistic images, famous artists, as well as technical features of creating works of art.

A Socio-Pragmatic Study of Apologies by Moroccan Native Speakers of Arabic
Authors: Ismaili Alaoui Abderrahmane , Benabderrazik Youssef
Published: March 2024

This study hypothesises that the functions of apology strategies are culture-specific. It is based on the assumption that certain contextual and cultural factors might influence the production and perception of apologies across languages and cultures. The present study investigates apology strategies in Moroccan Arabic, which has not received much attention in cross-cultural pragmatic research. This study examines data from 200 Moroccan Arabic native speakers. It adopts the more structured approach of quantitative research by using a Discourse Completion Task (DCT) to elicit the production of apologies from 10 different social situations between hypothetical interactants. Although this is a pioneering study in its societal context, its main results support earlier findings suggesting the universality of apology strategies; however, the illocutionary forces assigned to these strategies and the identification of new apology strategies reinforce the culture-specific aspect of apologies.
Analysis of Emotional Labor among Multiple Shift Workers
Authors: - SONIA KANWAR
Published: March 2024

The present study was undertaken by the researcher to analyse the difference among multiple shift workers with regard to emotional labor.For the purpose of the study 240 subjects were selected by purposive sampling technique. The subjects belonged to the night shift workers and day shift workers of both the genders. An equal number of subjects were taken from both the gender in each category. Keeping in view the suitability, availability and validity the Dutch Questionnaire of Emotional labor (D-QEL) developed by Naring et al. 2007 was used to collect the data. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was employed to find out the interaction of work class (i.e. day shift workers and night shift workers) and the gender among the groups. Mean, SD and t- values were also calculated to find out the significance and direction of differences among various work class groups belonging to both the gender. The findings of the present study revealed that understanding of emotional labor would be very useful not only for these work classes i.e. DSW and NSW but for other professionals also from the other developmental point as well as work performance point of view, this is evident from the fact that significant differences were observed on all the indices of emotional labor among various work class groups except male DSW and female NSW. This shows that this variable does have effect on both the work class groups pertains to both the gender. So, while making selection or deputing a person for the specified job these differences may be helpful in the fair selection.
Ecological Concerns and Arundhati Roy: A Special Reference
Authors: - Vinita Sharma
Published: March 2024

The God of Small Things’, set in 1960s, reflects the mentality and socio-cultural environment of Ayemenem, an actual town in Kerala, an Indian state which is full of natural grandeur and opulence. Roy herself spent a greater part of her childhood days in this village, in the harmonious relationship with nature. Arundhati Roy’s ecological concerns find expression in The God of Small Things, a novel for which she won Booker prize. She picks up the Meenachal river from her childhood days and entwines all the big and small characters of the novel in its encircling heart. River Meenachal narrates the story of Ayemenem, the people living on its bank and their lives revolving around its abundant water. Arundhati Roy clearly shows the river as an inseparable component in the lives of the characters Velutha, Ammu, Chako, Pappachi, Rahel, Estha and others where they learnt the invaluable lessons of life. Velutha, a born Paravan- an untouchable, is ‘The God of Small Things’ in the novel. He is a man of ecology who makes small pretty things from the materials gained from nature. River is more than an amenity; it is a treasure. It offers a necessity of life that must be rationed among those who have power over it. The image of life as a flowing river abounds in literature and philosophy. Rivers serve as symbols of identity not only of one’s self but also of a nation too. As the river suffers, we hear the echoes of the socially committed, eco-conscious, ecofeminist’s anger in the dreary depiction of the fouled river Meenachal.
Decentralized Finance: A Potential Paradigm Shift for Financial Inclusion and Economic Empowerment
Authors: - Anuradha Gupta
Published: March 2024

Decentralized Finance, or DeFi, is a financial ecosystem built on blockchain technology, aiming to recreate traditional financial services without the need for central authorities like banks or intermediaries. It is a growing ecosystem of financial applications and services built on blockchain technology. Unlike traditional finance, which relies on centralized institutions like banks, DeFi leverages peer-to-peer (P2P) networks to facilitate financial transactions. Traditional financial systems often leave individuals and communities, particularly those in developing economies or marginalized groups, excluded due to limited access, high transaction costs, and stringent regulations. Decentralized Finance (DeFi) emerges as a potential solution, leveraging blockchain technology to offer an alternative financial ecosystem built on transparency, disintermediation, and accessibility. This paper investigates the potential of DeFi in fostering financial inclusion and economic empowerment.
DeFi has gained traction in India, with a growing interest in blockchain-based financial services. However, regulatory uncertainties have led to some cautiousness. Indian regulators are exploring frameworks to address potential risks while encouraging innovation in the DeFi space. As the regulatory landscape evolves, the adoption and development of DeFi in India are likely to be influenced by government policies and industry collaborations

The Concept of Burnout in Teachers
Authors: - Hüseyin Tınas
Published: March 2024

Today, it is necessary to communicate face-to-face and close with people in many professions. Emotional reactions to emotional burnout are observed in those who work in areas where face-to-face communication with people is intense. Burnout is a condition that manifests itself with the feeling of exhaustion felt in physiological and emotional areas, which is observed as a result of the inability to cope with the stress experienced due to the nature of the profession, especially in those who work in occupational groups that require intensive communication with people. Research to identify the elements related to burnout shows that interpersonal relationships, motivation, excessive workload, and one's success in coping with stress are associated with burnout. The internal contradiction in the workplace and the stress caused by this contradiction make employees prone to burnout. Studies emphasizing the importance of stress and motivation in burnout indicate that employees with low motivation do not experience burnout despite high job stress. In this review, information about teachers' burnout levels is given.
Bangalore : The Pub Capital of India
Authors: - Mukta Mohanty
Published: March 2024

The nightlife of Bangalore is a much spoken aspect of the city. The factor that adds to its popularity is the varied number of pubs one can find in and around the city. If we look at the industry analysis, Bangalore is one of the first cities of the country to come up with and popularize the concept of pub and nightlife culture. With the relaxation of opening pubs, bars and restaurants till 1 AM in the morning, the pub culture seems to have become more vibrant in the city in the last two years. Bangalore being a hub of many IT companies and MNCs, has experienced a lot of population influx in the past few years. This influx has led to the acculturation of various aspects and traditions. The pub culture seems to have benefitted from this influx and acculturation. Bangalore, emerging as the ‘Pub Capital of India’ has a lot to owe to the amalgamation of various cultures and ethos. As a result, the culture of this city seems to be more standardized and globalized as compared to other cities. The presence of multiple MNCs in the city also results in an increased number of travelers that frequently visit Bangalore. Visitors hailing from places where pubs and clubs are a common sight also seem to frequent the city. In order to give them a ‘feel at home’ experience the city provides a plethora of such places that cater to the taste of these visitors. Various other factors such as the music, environment, food, beverages, etc. also play a major part in the popularization and propagation of this pub culture.

Authors: - Nihal Ekici
Published: March 2024

Through color, material, form, accessory, print, surface design and the way they are worn, clothes can become a means of protest against social events or political symbols beyond the usual need for covering and adornment. Sensitivity to economic, political, cultural, and social issues such as human rights, children's rights, women's rights, equality, environment, animal rights, anti-war, religious and faith-based movements has been shown for many years. In the attitude towards these events, clothing has been an auxiliary tool in the form of expression.
In this study, it is aimed to draw attention to the issues that clothing has touched upon as a visual tool in expression and how it reflects these issues in the historical process. In this context, while emphasizing the social issues that fashion is sensitive to, its reflections in the historical process and the symbolic power of fashion on these issues, in order to compare with Katharine Hamnett t-shirts that consistently use political expressions on clothing surfaces through phrases, the 2024 women's t-shirt and sweatshirt collection catalogs of two ready-to-wear manufacturers, one national and one international, were scanned and all slogan printed products offered for sale on the online channel were examined.
As a result of the evaluation, it has been determined that slogan t-shirts have become a part of popular culture by moving away from their social, political, and cultural identities and becoming a part of fast consumption. In addition, the "WE SHOULD ALL BE FEMINISTS" t-shirt, which was selected as the outfit of the year at the Fashion Museum, is thought to remind the starting point of this movement pioneered by Hamnett.

Investigation of the Visual-Semantic Relations in Typography
Authors: - İrem Fulya Özkan
Published: March 2024

The technological advancements initiated with the onset of the Industrial Revolution and persisting rapidly to this day continue to instigate profound transformations in societies, cultures, and even forms of governance, while simultaneously ushering in new perspectives and methodologies in the realms of art and design.

In our age, the concept of language has ceased to be a mere means of communication and has adapted organically to the developing age by assuming certain missions and roles. These roles involve the articulation of narratives and meanings designed to integrate individuals into the existing capitalist system and manage their needs.

This study examines the relationship between typography and language as a design element within the context of semantic arguments. The primary aim here is to analyze the semantic structures of typography as a design element, not only facilitating readability but also visibility, and to dissect them from a semantic standpoint, from parts to the whole. In doing so, it aims to uncover the effectiveness of typography as a tool for perception management. The presented data is anticipated to provide designers, particularly, with methods to enhance the use of typography in conveying messages, meanings, and relationships with the reader, thereby increasing efficiency in terms of conveying meaning and offering various approaches to enhance semantic productivity.

The aim of this study is to position the semantic relationships between the meanings of typographic elements used in graphic design products and how viewers visually perceive the typography used. Thus, the exploration aims to discover how visually symbolic meanings created with typography can be utilized as a more effective form of communication.

Authors: - Dr. Teghbir Kaur
Published: March 2024

For hundreds of years, conflicts in water sharing have existed all around the globe. Cauvery River, in the southern part of India, has been in the midst of such conflict for the last 130 years. The Cauvery conflict between Tamil Nadu and Karnataka resurfaces whenever there's a shortfall in the Southwest Monsoon in the region. Historically, the conflict has been about the right to use water and the states/provinces in conflict have used the water from the river for agricultural purposes. Due to industrialization in the late 1980s and increasing population, water availability in the region has become stressed. The paper is an attempt to analyse the history and recent issue of Cauvery river water dispute. The paper also highlight the climate change that exacerbated the region’s water availability issues. Faltering rainfall has caused unrest in the region, and the traditional methods of water sharing are dwindling under political pressure. The purpose of this paper is to suggest the solution to Cauvery river dispute lies in effective water conservation strategy. Without a climate change strategy, the governments of these states will never be able to solve this complex issue at hand.  Here's an in-depth study of historical, political and ecological aspects of this dispute.

Published: March 2024

Dams are essential structures for water management, providing various benefits crucial for human survival and economic growth. However, steel corrosion in concrete dams poses a significant threat, leading to structural deterioration and potential collapse. Detecting corrosion in the early stage is critical to prevent catastrophic failures. This study investigates corrosion risk in a concrete dam's drainage gallery using half-cell potential (HCP) measurements, a common method for assessing corrosion activity in reinforced concrete.
The electrochemical process of steel corrosion in concrete, influenced by factors like chloride or carbonation exposure and temperature, is discussed. The HCP method is a nondestructive technique for determining the corrosion rate of steel reinforcement in concrete structures. It involves measuring the potential difference between reinforcing steel and reference electrodes; typically, a copper/copper sulphate electrode is used. The potential difference between the two electrodes is then used to calculate the corrosion rate of the reinforcing steel.
The HCP method is a reliable and cost-effective way to identify potential corrosion problems before they become severe. The present study used CorMap II® to measure HCP on the upstream face of the dam's drainage galleries. Results indicate predominantly low corrosion risk across tested locations, with minimal uncertainty. However, interpretations must consider environmental factors' influence on measurements. The study's findings offer valuable insights for future corrosion assessments and underline the importance of preventive measures for concrete dam integrity.
