Magyarország élelmezése válság idején
Authors: Éliás Boglárka Anna
Published: May 2024

Az élelmiszerárak 2015–2020 között 23%-kal, az éves egy főre jutó nettó átlagjövedelem 61%-kal emelkedett, míg 2022–2023-ban az élelmiszerárak 59, miközben a jövedelmek 33,2%-kal növekedtek. Az élelmiszer-infláció jövedelmek növekedését jelentősen meghaladó üteme szükségszerűvé teszi Magyarország élelmezési helyzetének újraértékelését. A tanulmány az élelmezésbiztonság fogalmi keretrendszerét követve vizsgálja az élelmiszerek rendelkezésre állását, felhasználását, az élelmiszerekhez való fizikai és gazdasági hozzáférést, valamint ezen tényezők stabilitását. A vizsgálatban nyilvános adatok (KSH, Nébih, EFSA, WHO, OTÁP), valamint egy online, nem reprezentatív (n=300) kérdőíves felmérés adatai kerültek feldolgozásra. Az eredmények szerint a rendelkezésre állás és a fizikai hozzáférés alapvetően megvalósul Magyarországon, az élelmezésbiztonság Achilles-sarka a gazdasági hozzáférés és a felhasználás közös dimenziója, a minőségi étrendhez szükséges élelmiszerek megfizethetősége. A 2019. évi OTÁP-felmérés szerint a fontos vitamin-, esszenciáliszsírsav- és élelmirost-források (zöldségek, gyümölcsök, teljes kiőrlésű gabonafélék, száraz hüvelyesek, halak, diófélék, olajosmagvak) fogyasztása nem éri el a dietetikai ajánlásokat. A 2015–2020 közötti jövedelmi szintek szerinti élelmiszer-fogyasztás és átlagjövedelem kapcsolatának vizsgálata (Spearman-féle rangkorrelációs együttható) alapján a magasabb jövedelemmel rendelkezők több gyümölcsöt (rs=0,988), halat (rs=0,976), zöldségfélét és burgonyát (rs=0,964), valamint húsfélét (rs=0,915) fogyasztottak, tehát jobban megfeleltek az OTÁP által ajánlott étrendnek, mint az alacsonyabb jövedelemmel rendelkezők. A kérdőív kitöltői között az ezen élelmiszerekből a 2022. január előtti időszakhoz képest kevesebbet vásárlók havi átlagjövedelme a teljes mintáét 3–14 százalékkal múlta alul, a változás okaként első helyen az élelmiszerárak emelkedését jelölték meg. A nevezett élelmiszerekből nagyobb mennyiséget vásárlók átlagjövedelme viszont 13–27 százalékkal meghaladta a minta átlagjövedelmét, tehát feltételezhető, hogy a 2022–2023 közötti – jövedelmek emelkedését meghaladó – élelmiszer-infláció következtében az alacsony és a magas jövedelmű háztartások étrendje közötti minőségi távolság tovább növekszik.
Pengaruh penanaman modal dalam negeri, penanaman modal asing, utang luar negeri dan surat berharga syariah negara terhadap perekonomian Indonesia
Authors: Pratama Dyah Novi , Rofiuddin Mohammad
Published: May 2024

Economic growth is the primary objective to enhance the quality of human resources, societal welfare, and equitable national development within a country. Investment is considered a key determinant in achieving sustainable economic growth. Moreover, to meet developmental expenditure needs, governments often resort to borrowing. Therefore, this study investigates the impact of domestic investment, foreign investment, foreign debt, and state Islamic securities on Indonesia's economic growth. By utilizing secondary data from various reputable statistical institutions such as the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS), the Fiscal Policy Agency (BPKPM), Bank Indonesia (BI), and the Financial Services Authority (OJK) spanning from 2012 to 2022, this research aims to provide a deeper understanding of the factors influencing Indonesia's economic growth. Multiple Linear Regression analysis is employed to analyze the data in this study. The results indicate that domestic investment does not significantly affect Indonesia's economic growth, while foreign debt is found to have a significant impact on economic growth. However, no evidence exists that state Islamic securities influence Indonesia's economic growth.

The research results obtained at the level of green GRDP growth have had high economic consequences on the agriculture and plantations sector since environmental constraints corrected them. However, a quality environment can fulfill hope for society for a more decent life. Recommendations that can be given in this study are related to the implementation of green GRDP, potentially accommodating the well-being acquired by society from the agricultural sector and plantations to increase regional economic growth in Lampung Province.
Contribution of FDI, fiscal policy, and labor force on inequality and economic growth: A case study in South Sulawesi, Indonesia
Authors: Tripani Tripani , Anwar Andi Faisal
Published: May 2024

South Sulawesi Province faces a significant problem: economic growth that has not been inclusive. This study analyzes the relationship between foreign investment contribution, fiscal policy, and labor force to inclusive economic growth in South Sulawesi, Indonesia. The results of this study show two relationships, namely direct and indirect relationships. Judging from the direct influence. First, FDI and local native income positively affect the level of inequality. However, in contrast to general allocation funds and labor force variables, each negatively affects inequality. Meanwhile, FDI, general allocation funds, and local original revenues positively affect economic growth. However, in contrast to the variables labor force and inequality, each negatively affects the inequality level. When viewed from its indirect influence, FDI, general allocation funds, labor force, and local native income each positively impact economic growth through levels of inequality. The implication of this study is the importance of governments allocating FDI investments for infrastructure development that supports inclusive growth.

Cada dia mais é requisitado maior eficiência dos profissionais que atuam com processos de recrutamento e seleção. Esses profissionais possuem à disposição um vasto arcabouço de ferramentas e técnicas, desenvolvidos ainda mais pelo advento e evolução da internet, consequentemente as redes sociais tornaram-se um importante mecanismo de divulgação e atração de talentos. Nesse sentido, o LinkedIn é o principal representante dessas ferramentas. Visando contemplar esse cenário, o objetivo desse trabalho foi analisar a ferramenta digital LinkedIn e seu uso feito por profissionais que atuam na área de recrutamento e seleção. Para tanto, o presente trabalho compreende uma pesquisa qualitativa de caráter bibliográfico-exploratório, a qual fora desenvolvida por meio de revisão de literatura, tendo sua análise respaldada pelo referencial da Psicologia do Trabalho e Organizações. Os resultados apontaram que a utilização do LinkedIn requer uma abordagem estratégica, que valorize a adequação entre as necessidades da organização e as habilidades dos candidatos. Caso contrário, o uso em demasia dessa ferramenta, sem a devida reflexão e crítica, pode se tornar uma “muleta” para atuação profissional, a qual apenas replica uma forma mecanizada de operar.

Published: May 2024

Apesar das leis que asseguram a presença de estudantes surdos em sala de aula, com recursos como a língua de sinais e intérpretes, ainda enfrentam-se desafios, especialmente nas disciplinas que envolvem conteúdos abstratos e termos técnicos, como é o caso da Lógica de Programação. O desenvolvimento de um material específico para esta disciplina pode ser muito útil, mas em tempos de pandemia e distanciamento social, como seria possível a construção considerando a parceria professor e intérprete? A abordagem adotada para o desenvolvimento deste estudo é de caráter exploratório, usando métodos qualitativos e quantitativos. Em caráter construtivista e interdisciplinar, este trabalho tem por objetivo compreender a dinâmica da construção à distância de material para alunos surdos do Ensino Médio em Lógica de Programação utilizando materiais e tecnologias disponíveis e de baixo custo. Os resultados sugerem que a criação do material pode ser beneficiada quando apoiada em elementos imagéticos em detrimento de textos apenas verbais oferecidos pelo professor. A interação do professor e intérprete é essencial para as melhores escolhas e abordagens e o storyboard se mostra um poderoso recurso, sobretudo no trabalho à distância.

A COVID-19 demonstrou ser altamente patogênica e letal por conta da sua alta taxa de transmissão, atingindo diferentes países do seu local de origem na China, diante disso o principal mecanismo que defende o hospedeiro contra os patógenos é o sistema imunonólogico, que a partir de diversos meios elimina o vírus. Entretanto, a intensa resposta imunológica caracterizada por uma infecção grave eleva a produção de mediadores inflamatórios que podem agravar o quadro clínico dos pacientes acometidos pelas doenças. Portanto, o presente trabalho quantifica as citocinas IL-1 beta, IFN-gama, IL-5, IL-12 e IL-17 em pacientes acometidos pela doença, a fim de demonstrar como a elevada produção destas citocinas podem atuar no organismo. A determinação plasmática das citocinas foi realizada através de ensaio imunoenzimático (ELISA) sendo a genotipagem do SARS-Cov-2 por RT-PCR. Um total de 10 pacientes com a COVID-19 (Grupo Experimental – GE, 8 mulheres, idade média de 60 anos) e 10 voluntários saudáveis (Grupo Controle – GC, 7 mulheres, idade média de 55 anos) foram incluídos no estudo. Resultados médios obtidos nos diferentes perfins das citocinas: IL-1 beta (GE=138 pg/mL; GC=50 pg/mL), IFN-γ (GE=104,3 pg/mL; GC=55 pg/mL), IL-5 (GE=135,2 pg/mL; GC=51 pg/mL), IL-12 (GE=132,2 pg/mL; GC=65 pg/mL) e IL-17 (GE=130 pg/mL; GC=75 pg/mL). A partir do estudo, os dados encontrados em pacientes acometidos pela doença foi significativamente maior quando comparado ao grupo controle (p<0,001 para cada comparação). Em suma, pacientes com COVID-19 na fase aguda apresentam intensa resposta inflamatória buscando a neutralização do SARS-CoV-2.
Incorporating plastic waste fibres for sustainable sandy soil
Authors: Baghdir Benathmane , Abed Younes
Published: May 2024

The increase in urbanization has led governments to build on sites with certain geotechnical ‎hazards, such as liquefaction, ‎low bearing capacity, etc. In recent decades, as governments ‎have focused their efforts on the environmental and ‎economic aspects, researchers have ‎emphasized the need to use suitable alternative materials for the best design features, also the issue of plastic pollution is a significant global problem that requires urgent attention, current initiatives focus on the use of technical solutions to integrate non-biodegradable plastics into ‎the construction of buildings and road pavement.‎ ‎In this ‎paper, a series of direct shear tests were performed to evaluate the benefits of plastic wastes, ‎such as polypropylene ‎‎(PP) pots, and the engineering properties of sand reinforced with such ‎materials. To highlight the contribution of the ‎reinforcement to the shear strength, the ‎tests were carried out on sand reinforced with variable fibre contents (0.2, 0.4, 0.6, ‎and 0.8%) ‎for loose-density sand and medium-density sand. ‎ The experimental results showed that the increase in shear ‎strength is relatively more significant for specimens prepared with dry deposition mode as compared to those prepared ‎with wet deposition mode and it is increased with the fibre content. The inclusion of randomly distributed fibres has a significant effect on the shear strength and dilatation of sandy soils. Furthermore, the recycling fibre used in this study ‎shows a better performance in terms of shear strength. In conclusion, the use of plastic waste as ‎reinforcement would lead ‎to at least two solutions: soil reinforcement and reducing the ‎environmental impact of waste.

O nariz desempenha papéis vitais tanto funcionalmente quanto esteticamente, sendo essencial para a respiração e a aparência facial. A rinomodelação emerge como uma técnica eficaz para aprimorar a harmonia facial, corrigindo imperfeições como a giba do dorso nasal e a ponta caída. A compreensão detalhada da anatomia nasal e das técnicas cirúrgicas é fundamental para alcançar resultados estéticos satisfatórios e funcionais. A abordagem inclui o reposicionamento dos ossos nasais através de osteotomias, buscando minimizar o trauma e otimizar a recuperação pós-operatória. No entanto, a adaptação individualizada da técnica é crucial, exigindo dos cirurgiões habilidades diversas para atender às expectativas e necessidades específicas de cada paciente. Uma anamnese detalhada e uma comunicação clara sobre os riscos e benefícios são essenciais para uma abordagem segura e satisfatória. O objetivo desse trabalho foi relatar um caso clínico de um procedimento de rinomodelação utilizando fio de polidioxanona I-thread (PDO) por meio da técnica fechada. Paciente CFC, gênero feminino, 27 anos de idade, compareceu a faculdade do Amazonas IAES na especialização de cirurgia e traumatologia bucomaxilo-facial com a seguinte queixa principal: “estou insatisfeita com meu nariz”. Diante do exame clínico e de imagem foi proposto para a paciente a rinomodelacao com técnica fechada em que resultou em completa satisfação da paciente, sem complicações pós-operatórias e redução da região óssea. Conclui-se que a rinomodelação utilizando fio de polidioxanona I-thread (PDO) por meio da técnica fechada demonstrou ser uma abordagem minimamente invasiva eficaz, resultando em melhorias estéticas satisfatórias que impactaram positivamente a autoestima e o bem-estar psicossocial da paciente.
Minimum ecological standards for the evolution of the Strasbourg system towards Ecological human rights
Authors:   Registry of the European Court of Human Rights, Kobylarz Natalia
Published: May 2024

This chapter provides some answers to the questions: Is the protection offered by the European Court of Human Rights sufficient in the new ecological reality that poses complex challenges not only to the modern way of life, but also to the established systems of governance and law? In what direction could the current system evolve? The author argues that the Strasbourg system of environmental human rights can and ought to transition to the regime of ecological human rights. She proposes that, independently of the possible recognition of the autonomous right to a healthy environment, such transition can be achieved by integrating ecological minimum standards into the ECHR’s ‘fair balance’ review. These ecological minimum standards are a set of notions that express the legal paradigms of immersive anthropocentrism and ecocentrism; that give due consideration to climate and biodiversity crises; that include the concepts of sustainable development and sustainable use of natural resources; as well as the principles of intergenerational equity, precaution, and in dubio pro natura.
Climate litigation between international law and domestic remedies: the virtuous example of collective claims
Authors:   University of Palermo, Pane Giorgia
Published: May 2024

Claims concerning the environment and its relationship with human rights are growing in number and impact. This relationship is mainly explored in different fora through the lens of international human rights law. In this very heterogeneous framework, an interesting perspective is offered by domestic case-law in Europe, in which human rights’ obligations stemming from the jurisprudence of the ECtHR are used as a means of interpretation of States’ obligations towards their citizens. The focus on domestic jurisdiction offers various levels of facilitation to the access to environmental justice. On the other hand, it clashes with obstacles deriving from the risk of the lack of impact that a single decision can have, especially in legal systems of civil law typical of continental Europe. A possible way of contrasting these inherent obstacles is that of the “collective claim”, through which issues of a communal interest can be brought forward. The prospected solution, which shows appreciable margins of success, is that of the application of international human rights’ law standards of interpretation of international commitments on a national level and from a collective point of view.
Towards climate democracies? Legal systems’ adaptation to climate change litigation
Authors:   University of Milan, Masieri Carlo
Published: May 2024

The fight against global warming and its tragic effects has become a political value. Climate change litigation arose as an important way to pursue this value, but it could also lead to significative changes into legal systems. In climate change litigation cases, international law becomes the main ground for asking domestic remedies – especially those of tort law – that may undergo relevant modifications, putting also into discussion EU legal standards. Courts seem to be playing – even in Civil Law countries – a quasi-legislative role through trials, at the end of which they order governments or legislatures to adopt new mitigation policies. But effective enforcement tools are still to be shaped. This contribution focuses on the need of governing these aspects of climate change litigation in order to create real climate democracies.
Transnational corporate liability in the era of loss and damages: the case of Asmania et al. v. Holcim
Authors:   European Center for Constitutional and Human Rights (ECCHR), Duarte Reyes Laura Andrea , Burri Nina ,   Legal advisor for the Hilfswerk der Evangelisch-reformierten Kirche Schweiz (HEKS/EPER)
Published: May 2024

As the climate and ecological crisis exacerbates, its effects are increasingly contributing to loss and damage (L&D) around the world, disproportionately affecting those who have contributed the least to climate change and have the least economic capacity to cope with it. Despite this pressing scenario, efforts at the UN level have so far failed to secure sufficient funding for vulnerable states to address L&D. Against this background, attention has been increasingly focusing on litigation targeting public and private for their contribution to climate-related impacts. Civil litigation has been a primary course of action for attempting to attribute responsibility to major private. Yet, despite offering an opportunity to embark on a potential road to reparation, tort-based claims face several procedural, legal and evidentiary challenges, especially when it comes to extraterritorial responsibility. This article presents a detailed analysis of Asmania et al. v. Holcim, the lawsuit filed by four inhabitants of the island of Pari, Indonesia, against the Swiss cement company Holcim for its contribution to climate change and consequently to the financial and non-financial damages suffered by the plaintiffs due to sea level rise on the island. The authors argue that despite the challenges posed by the traditional tort system a new interpretation of Swiss civil law provisions might open the possibility for a civil liability regime able to effectively address the question of climate related L&D in an extraterritorial setting.
Parental liability doctrine and environmental crimes: limits and perspectives
Authors:   Italian Criminal Defense Lawyer, Confalonieri Sofia
Published: May 2024

In the context of European Environmental Law, Directive 2008/99/EC mandates Member States to institute corporate criminal liability for environmental offenses. However, there's uncertainty within the Directive regarding whether Member States should ensure that parent companies are held accountable for environmental crimes committed by their subsidiaries and, if so, under what conditions. This matter gains significance as numerous studies indicate that, in the absence of any form of effective parental liability, companies may externalize the risk of penalties by incorporating hazardous activities into separate legal entities. To curb such potentially exploitative practices, the paper scrutinizes the applicability of the "parental liability doctrine" in EU environmental criminal law. Despite this exploration, the author argues against the expansion of this doctrine, advocating instead for a fault-based form of parental liability, as the one outlined in the Proposal for a Directive on Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence. This form of liability is linked to compliance deficiencies and, consequently, aligns with the culpability principle. Furthermore, it would encourage parent companies to institute compliance programs, aiming primarily to prevent subsidiaries from engaging in criminal activities
A review of catalytic reduction of carbon dioxide
Authors: Shen Jiajie
Published: May 2024

Carbon dioxide (CO2) generated from the consumption of fossil fuels is one of the main factors contributing to the greenhouse effect. How to mitigate the greenhouse effect and reduce the extraction and consumption of fossil fuels has become an issue worthy of study. In recent years, a technology for the catalytic reduction of CO2 to fossil fuels and chemicals has attracted a great deal of attention by providing a new way to solve this problem. This paper reviews the basic principles of three fundamental catalytic CO2 reduction, photocatalysis, electrocatalysis and thermocatalysis, and two advanced catalytic modes, thermocatalysis and photoelectrocatalysis, derived from these three modes, as well as their advantages and disadvantages. In addition, the challenges that the catalytic reduction of CO2 is currently facing are also discussed. Although this technology has made significant progress over the decades, it is still in its preliminary stage with some shortcomings and there is a long way to go before it can be applied in reality.

Athletes often practice, not all of them have mastered the mawashi geri kick technique, the lack of effective leg power, agility and flexibility of the hip joint when the athlete performs the mawashi geri kick attack has an effect on the athlete's performance not being optimal. The aim of this research was to determine "the relationship between leg power, agility and hip joint flexibility on the results of mawashi geri kicks in the sport of karate". The research method uses quantitative descriptive methods with a correlational approach. The population in this study were Sukabumi City BKC athletes with a sampling technique using purposive sampling, so the research sample was 14 athletes who took part in the West Java BKC Provincial Championship. The results of the research show that: 1) there is a significant relationship between leg power and the results of the mawashi geri kick in the sport of karate, which is 53.80%. 2) there is a significant relationship between agility (X2) and the results of the mawashi geri kick in the sport of karate (Y) which is 55.40%. 3) there is a significant relationship between hip joint flexibility (X3) and the results of the mawashi geri kick in karate (Y) which is 55.60%. There are three independent variables, namely leg power, agility and hip joint flexibility, which together have a significant influence on the results of the mawashi geri kick in the sport of karate at the Bandung Karate Club (BKC) Sukabumi City, amounting to 74.50%.

Endodontic irrigation plays a crucial role in root canal treatment, aiming to disinfect the root canal system be removing debris, bacteria and tissue remnants. Objective: To compare the postoperative pain between two concentrations (1.3% and 5.25%) of irrigation using sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) in lower molars with necrotic pulps. Methods: Sixty patients with nonvital pulps in mandibular molars, either gender, mature teeth with a closed apex or age between 18 and 60 years were included. Patients were assessed for postoperative pain in each group at 24 hours. The Chi-square test and student t-test were used to compare the postoperative pain outcome of both groups. Results: The mean age of the patients in group A was 33.76 ± 4.06 years, and in group B was 32.10 ± 5.84 years. Pre-operative pain was statistically insignificant in both groups (p = 0.123), with an average VAS of 3.16 ± 0.64 in group A and 3.40 ± 0.49 in group B. The average pain was significantly lower at 1.33 ± 0.47 in the 1.3% sodium hypochlorite group compared to 1.63 ± 0.66 in the 5.25% NaOCl group (p = 0.051) after 24 hours. The average post-operative pain score was significantly higher in females compared to males in the 1.3% NaOCl group (p = 0.033). However, the average post-operative pain score was statistically insignificant between males and females in the 5.25% NaOCl group (p = 0.445). Conclusion: Endodontic irrigation using 1.3% NaOCl was found to be more effective in reducing post-operative pain compared to endodontic irrigation using 5.25% NaOCl.

Проведено исследование характеристики вторичного рентгеновского излучения, генерируемого в процессе работы стерилизатора на основе сильноточного импульсно-периодического ускорителя электронов СИНУС-320. Энергия ускоренных электронов составляет 500 кэВ. В связи с этим возникает необходимость радиационной защиты при эксплуатации установки, что, в свою очередь, приводит к важности изучения энергетического спектра и мощности дозы вторичного рентгеновского излучения. Исследования были проведены методом статистического моделирования с использованием программного пакета GEANT4.
The work presents a study of the parameters of secondary X-ray radiation generated during the operation of a sterilization setup based on a high-current pulse-periodic electron accelerator SINUS-320. The energy of accelerated electrons equals 500 keV. Therefore, the issues of radiation protection during operation of the installation is highly topical, that leads to the importance of studying the energy spectrum and dose rate of secondary X-ray radiation. The studies were carried out by statistical simulation via GEANT4 toolkit.
Многослойная энергопоглощающая подложка для двухслойных преград с внешним керамическим слоем
Authors: Петросян П. Г. , Григорян Л. Н.
Published: May 2024

Предложен новый тип многослойной энергопоглощающей подложки, слои которой связаны между собой эластичным клеем. Показано, что при столкновении ударника с преградой часть кинетической энергии ударника расходуется на смещение отдельных слоев подложки друг относительно друга, что приводит к увеличению предельной скорости пробития преграды. Исследована зависимость предельной скорости пробития преграды от величины смещения слоев подложки, а также зависимость энергии, затрачиваемой на скольжение слоев, от площади деформированной части подложки. Показано, что при одинаковой энергии ударника глубина деформации предложенной подложки в 1.5 раза меньше по сравнению с подложками, в которых скольжение слоев отсутствует. Применение предложенной подложки в керамических защитных структурах позволяет существенно снизить поверхностную плотность конструкции.

A new type of multilayer energy-absorbing substrate has been proposed, the layers of which are connected with each other by elastic glue. It is shown that when the impactor collides with an obstacle, part of the kinetic energy of the impactor is spent on the displacement of separate layers of the substrate relative to each other, which leads to an increase in the maximum velocity of penetration of the barrier. The dependence of the maximum velocity of penetration of the barrier on the displacement of the substrate layers, as well as the dependence of the energy spent on sliding layers on the area of the deformed part of the substrate, have been studied. It is shown that, at the same impact energy, the depth of deformation of the proposed substrate is 1.5 times less than that of substrates in which the sliding of layers is absent. The use of the proposed substrate in ceramic protective structures allows to significantly reduce the surface density of the structure.
350 metų herojinei poemai Viešpaties dešinės galybė / 350 Years of Heroic Poem Force of the Right Hand of the Lord
Authors: Narbutas Sigitas
Published: May 2024

On November 11, 1673, the Polish and Lithuanian armies defeated a large corps of the Ottoman army at Khotyn. On January 14, 1674, the heroic poem The Power of the Right Hand of the Lord was published in Vilnius to immortalize this victory in Latin. Apart from the poem, the book contains a dedication to the commanders of the Grand Duchy’s army signed by a Vilnius Academy student Jacob Bennet (d. 1730) and the panoramic image of the Battle of Khotyn created by the artist Laurenty Krzczonowicz (circa 1650–1704). The author of the poem is probably somebody else than indicated on the title page. It is suggested that the real author might be Andrzej Hrynkiewicz; (1647 VIII 25 – 1707 VI 20), a poetics instructor at the Vilnius Jesuit Academy. Having joined the Society of Jesus on August 14, 1664 in Vilnius, he studied and later taught various disciplines at Jesuit educational institutions of Vilnius, Warsaw, Polotsk and Nesvizh. From 1686 until his death, he lived in the Warsaw professed house, where he occupied various positions. He was a talented preacher. His lectures and sermons are extant in manuscript, but only the poem The Power of the Lord’s Right Hand was published in his lifetime. It extolls the military campaign of 1672–1673 culminating in the Battle of Khotyn. Besides the combat, the poem honours the most prominent military commanders and officers of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth: the Grand Hetman of Poland Jan Sobieski, the Field Hetman Dymitr Jerzy Wiśniowiecki, the Grand Hetman of Lithuania Michał Kazimierz Pac, the Field Hetman Michał Kazimierz Radziwiłł, and others. This article offers a translation of the heroic poem into Lithuanian with comprehensive textological and historical commentaries.
