Une histoire toujours ouverte
Authors: Rémond René
Published: December 2023

Résumé Les articles réunis dans ce numéro spécial de Vingtième Siècle mettent en évidence la diversité du fait religieux en Europe. Ils soulignent aussi l'accélération du changement dont l'Europe est le théâtre depuis trente ans. Y a-t-il encore un avenir pour les religions, et tout particulièrement le christianisme, en Europe. Si la question peut être légitimement posée, l'historien se gardera de conclure trop vite à l'avènement d'une Europe postchrétienne à l'horizon de laquelle le religieux serait promis à l'effacement. Les recompositions en cours soulignent au contraire la vitalité de croyances renouvelées par les valeurs désormais dominantes d'auto nomie individuelle, de pluralisme et de laïcité.

Published: December 2023

Résumé La paix acquise le 11 novembre 1918 a suscité en Belgique comme en France des sentiments ambivalents. En revanche, le travail de la mémoire dans ces deux pays a été fort différent. En Belgique, la figure du soldat, si elle tient la première place, n'occupe pas tout l'espace mémoriel. À ses côtés, se trouve la figure du martyr et du déporté. Il n'y a pas de déni de mémoire concernant les populations occupées.
Toury : une grève à la campagne sous le front populaire
Authors: Lynch Édouard
Published: December 2023

Résumé Le Front populaire, moment clé de l'histoire politique contemporaine française a été jusqu'à présent l'objet de lecture principalement urbaine et ouvrière, négligeant l'impact en amont de la crise agricole et les tentatives de solutions élaborées par le nouveau gouvernement. Or cette période voit également culminer les tensions villes-campagnes, sous l'effet d'une mobilisation sans précédent de la paysannerie en partie canalisée par de nouvelles organisations entraînant de nouvelles pratiques politiques dans les campagnes. Les affrontements provoqués par la grève dans une sucrerie d'Eure-et-Loir, à Toury, le 15 novembre 1936, au-delà du seul récit des faits, sont l'occasion de saisir les multiples enjeux que soulèvent les questions paysannes dans ces décisives années 1930.

Le « drame des Harkis » : mémoire ou histoire ?
Authors: Ageron Charles-Robert
Published: December 2023

Résumé Reprenant le dossier des dernières années de la question harkie pendant la guerre d'Algérie et dans l'immédiat après-guerre, C.-R. Ageron tente de démêler les positions des différents acteurs du « drame » : pouvoir politique et militaire français, autorités et populations algériennes ainsi que les harkis eux-mêmes et l'ANP. Il met en avant les violences dont ces anciens supplétifs de l'armée française furent victimes entre 1962 et 1963 et l'indifférence, voire la complaisance, des autorités algériennes à l'égard des responsables de ces représailles. L'attitude des hommes politiques français, âpre-ment critiquée par certaines fractions de l'opinion à l'époque, ne fut pas exempte d'ambiguïtés. Tandis que la controverse sur le nombre de harkis exécutés commençait à enfler, le sort des anciens supplétifs devint un sujet de discussions entre la France et l'Algérie et, à partir de l'été 1962, le gouvernement français tenta d'obtenir des assurances. En vain. L'armée encore présente sur le territoire algérien s'efforça alors de protéger ses anciens soldats et leurs familles sans toujours parvenir à les rapatrier. C'est en 1970 seulement que la question diplomatique fut réglée laissant ouverte une guerre des mémoires que l'historien a voulu, ici, apaiser.
La politique espagnole de la france (1945-1955)
Authors: Dulphy Anne
Published: December 2023

Résumé La politique de la France à l'égard de l'Espagne franquiste pendant la décennie d'après guerre est scandée par deux charnières : août 1947, la révision de la politique d'ostracisme est amorcée du fait de son échec patent ; fin 1950, la levée du passif franquiste est révélée par le vote de l'ONU supprimant les recommandations discriminatoires édictées fin 1946. Cette trajectoire conduit à opposer deux phases, séparées par une étape de transition : l'affrontement, pendant les deux ans où le gouvernement français contribue à imprimer le sceau de l'infamie sur un pouvoir péninsulaire qu'il isole en interrompant les communications frontalières ; l'apaisement, par lequel la coexistence succède à l'interventionnisme. L'attitude inverse est adop tée à l'égard de l'exil républicain. Après une période de prégnance des valeurs de la Résistance dans l'immédiat après-guerre, cette évolution témoigne de l'incapacité de la France à suivre une ligne originale dans un contexte de bipolarisation.

Investigation of factors affecting the rapid detection of agarwood formation in Aquilaria crassna by near-infrared spectroscopy
Authors: Herath H. M. W. A. I. , Jinendra B. M. S.
Published: December 2023

Agarwood is a highly valued fragrant resin produced inside a few tree species belonging to the family Thymalaeaceae as a self-defense response to plant stress. The amount of resin developed inside the tree cannot be estimated by outside inspection. Consequently, harvesting trees before they reach their potential yield is a severe drawback to the Agarwood industry. Therefore, developing effective techniques for detecting Agarwood resin status inside the tree species has become a critically important task for the agarwood industry to increase productivity. The present study evaluates the factors affecting Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) models when predicting agarwood formation inside A. crassna trunks using NIR spectroscopy. The research used 110 wood specimens obtained from well-grown Agarwood trees in a commercial plantation in Nawimana GS Division, Matara District, Sri Lanka. NIR meter FQA-NIR Gun (588-1100nm) with a custom-made probe was used to acquire NIR reflectance spectra without outside light interference. SIMCA  models were built to identify the agar resin-developed wood log areas from the normal wood areas in the tree trunk. SIMCA prediction models were built to investigate three influencing factors, namely present or absent outside tree bark, surface roughness and wood thickness agarwood prediction.  Better prediction results were obtained from the bark-removed samples (at the accuracy rates of 97%) to the bark present (85%), smooth wood surfaces (98%) to the rough surface (90%) and 2mm thickness (98%) to the other thickness. The most effective wavelength for the separation of Agarwood present and absent samples was located at 978 nm of NIR. The study has demonstrated the potential possibility of using NIR spectroscopy to identify the agarwood formation in A. crassna in non-destructive and rapid mode.
The aging process of deep fat compartments in the midface and midfacial rejuvenation: An ultrasound-based analysis
Authors: Hung Wei-Kai , Chen Chun-Bing , Cheng Chun-Yu , Chang Shyue-Luen , Hu Sindy , Chang Ya-Ching , Huang Yau-Li
Published: December 2023

Background:

The midfacial fat is highly compartmentalized, and the deep fat compartments provide structural support for the midface. Understanding the age-related changes in the midfacial deep fat compartments is important for midfacial rejuvenation physiologically. However, previous studies showed conflicted results of these changes.

Objectives:

This study aims to quantify the age-related changes of deep fat compartments in the midface using ultrasound.

Methods:

A cross-sectional study was conducted to evaluate subjects with age more than 25 years old and the subjects were divided into four age groups equally (25–34, 35–44, 45–54, and ≥55). The thickness of the suborbicularis oculi fat compartment (SOOF) and deep medial cheek fat compartment (DMCF) was measured using a portable ultrasound device. Mean thickness differences among different age groups were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance. Multiple linear regression adjusted for body mass index (BMI) and sex was also conducted.

Results:

A total of 60 subjects were enrolled. The thickness of SOOF and DMCF tends to decrease with age. The mean decrease of SOOF and DMCF from the youngest group to the oldest group was 0.63 mm (36%) and 0.70 mm (25.83%), respectively. The relationship between aging and thickness of SOOF and DMCF remains significant after adjusting for BMI and sex (both P < 0.001).

Conclusion:

The thickness of deep fat compartments decreases with the natural aging process. The study may offer clinical implications for targeted volume rejuvenation to achieve a more youthful and natural face.
Sample size considerations in research
Authors: Sivasamy Shyam
Published: December 2023

“What should be the sample size for my study?” is a common question in the minds of every research at some point of the research cycle. Answering this question with confident is tough even for a seasoned researcher. Sample size determination, an important aspect of sampling design consideration of a study, is a factor which directly influences the internal and external validity of the study. Unless the sample size is of adequate size, the results of the study cannot be justified. Conducting a study in too small sample size or too large sample size have ethical, scientific, practical, and economic strings attached to it and have detrimental effects in the research outcomes. A myriad of factors including the study design, type of power analysis, sampling technique employed, and acceptable limits of error fixed play a decisive role in estimating the sample size. However, the advent of free to use software and websites for sample size estimation has actually diluted or sometimes complicated the whole process of sample size estimation as important factors or assumptions related to sample size are overlooked. Engaging a professional biostatistician from the very beginning of the research process would be a wise decision while conducting research. This article highlights the important concepts related to sample size estimation with emphasis on factors which influences it.
Do higher radiation doses improve survival for cervical esophageal squamous cell cancer patients treated with definitive chemoradiotherapy using intensity-modulated radiotherapy? A propensity-score matched analysis
Authors: Xie Feihong , Liu Tingting , Wang Xinran , Dong Jinling , Huang Wei , Sun Hongfu
Published: December 2023

Objective:

This study was conducted to determine whether higher doses of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) could improve the survival rate in patients of cervical esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (CESCC), and lead to more severe treatment-related toxicity.

Methods:

The clinical records of stage I–IVA CESCC patients treated with definitive chemoradiotherapy (CRT) using IMRT between January 2013 and June 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients in the high-dose (HD) group received ≥60 Gy and those in the standard-dose group received <60 Gy. A propensity score matching (PSM) was applied to balance the confounding factors between both groups. The primary endpoint was over-survival (OS). progression-free survival (PFS), loco-regional control (LRC), and treatment-related toxicity were also evaluated.

Results:

A total of 136 patients with CESCC were included. Patients with N1–3 nodal and stages III–IVA of the disease (P < 0.05) were included in the HD group. The differences in the OS, PFS, and LRC between the two groups were not statistically significant (P = 0.350, 0.063, and 0.099, respectively). After PSM, significantly longer PFS and LRC were observed in the HD group. The difference in OS between the two groups was not statistically significant. There was no significant difference in the incidence of treatment-related toxicity between the two groups.

Conclusions:

The results of this PSM analysis suggested that higher doses may improve PFS and LRC for CESCC patients receiving CRT using OMRT, but do not demonstrate any statistically significant advantage in improving OS.
Quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment Score, Lactate, and Neutrophil–Lymphocyte Ratio Help in Diagnosis and Mortality Prediction during Golden Hour of Sepsis in Emergency Department
Authors: Kumar Rakesh , Kattimani Babu , Ojha Pushpanjali R. , Khasage Udaykumar J.
Published: December 2023

Introduction:

Sepsis is a life-threatening condition with a very narrow golden period in which confirmatory diagnosis may change the outcome dramatically. No confirmatory biomarker is available till date for early diagnosis of sepsis. This study aimed to evaluate the combined and independent role of quick sequential organ failure assessment (qSOFA) score, lactate, and neutrophil–lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in diagnosis and mortality prediction in early sepsis.

Methods:

This was a hospital-based, single-center, prospective cohort study conducted in a tertiary care institute, Karnataka, India. Three hundred adult sepsis patients were recruited during 10-month period, and demographic data, qSOFA score, lactate, NLR, and culture samples were collected in ED within 1 h of admission. Outcome groups (survivor and nonsurvivor) were statistically analyzed with relative frequencies (%), median, mean ± standard deviation with 95% confidence interval (CI), univariate, bivariate, and multivariate logistic regression analysis, and Receiver -operating characteristic curve (ROC) curve to test the predictive ability of initial levels of three biomarkers.

Results:

Sepsis was more prevalent among middle-aged male patients. Male gender (odds ratio [OR], 6.9; 95% CI: 1.61–30.1), qSOFA (OR, 154; 95% CI: 15–1565), and lactate (OR, 1.36; 95% CI: 22–833) show 97% (area under the curve) predictive accuracy of the model for sepsis on bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis. A significant rise in NLR was a poor outcome indicator on univariate analysis (P = 0.773).

Conclusion:

All three biomarkers are good outcome predictors whereas qSOFA and lactate have diagnostic significance in early sepsis. These markers can be used for patient triaging, minimizing culture report dependence for treatment and ultimately the outcome.
The role of nurses in the prevention of cervical cancer: Cervical screening, an unkept promise by the majority of women in Nigeria
Authors: Adigun Mary Opeyemi , Esan Deborah Tolulope , Adeyanju Benedict Tolulope , Oyinloye Babatunji Emmanuel
Published: December 2023

Cervical cancer remains a major public health problem accounting for continuous female death in developing countries. Cervical cancer is the second most common cancer in women globally with an estimated number of 500,000 new cases of cervical cancer and 273,000 mortalities annually. Cervical screening is the best cancer screening test in the history of medicine and most cost-effective of all medical screening tests. The study review aimed to highlight methods of cervical cancer prevention, identify the uptake of cervical screening among women, and explain the role of nurses in uptake of cervical screening. Cervical cancer is preventable and easily treatable if it is detected at early stages, but poor information on prevention and access to screening and treatment contributes to 90% of deaths. In the developing countries such as Nigeria, a large proportion of cervical cancers are diagnosed in advanced stages, with poor rates of survival. The three main methods for preventing cervical cancer are through primary prevention (human papillomavirus vaccination and health education), secondary prevention (cervical screening, early detection of precancerous lesions, and treatment), and tertiary prevention (measures to slow the progression or recurrence, surgical removal, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy). Nurses can help improve the acceptability of this neglected promise by focusing on health education on cervical screening and vaccination in prenatal clinics and infant welfare clinics where there are more women. Inclusion of cyberspace could also serve as a successful and popular platform for this health teaching. All nurses/midwives must preach and fervently work toward the WHO 90–70–90 plan for eradicating cervical cancer.
Nonpharmacological pain management practices among nurses working in multiple centers in Saudi Arabia: A cross-sectional study
Authors: Alrimali Afaf Mufadhi , Al-Hamad Noran Mohammad , Almazeani Faisal Hamoud , Alharbi Mona Dahi
Published: December 2023

Objective:

The aim of the study was to investigate the prevalence, and determinants, of nonpharmacological pain management practices among nurses in multiple settings.

Materials and Methods:

A cross-sectional examination was conducted involving 324 nurses from 16 hospitals in Hai’l, Saudi Arabia. Participants completed a self-reported survey utilizing established tools to assess the frequency of nonpharmacological pain management interventions utilization and identify associated barriers. Data analysis was performed using SPSS version 29.0.

Results:

Nonpharmacological pain management practices were found to be utilized “sometimes,” with a score of 2.89 ± 0.48. Commonly employed techniques included placing patients in comfortable positions and providing a tranquil environment. Gender was the sole demographic factor significantly affecting the use of these techniques (P < 0.001), with female nurses demonstrating higher utilization. Barriers to implementation varied based on the hours of recent pain management education (P = 0.004), with prevalent barriers including nurse shortages, multiple responsibilities, heavy workloads, and nurse fatigue.

Conclusion:

The study reveals moderate utilization of nonpharmacological pain management approaches, primarily focusing on patient positioning and creating a calm environment. Female nurses exhibited higher adoption rates of these techniques. Barriers to implementation, such as nurse shortages and heavy workloads, were influenced by recent pain management education. Consequently, enhancing education and fostering supportive work environments are crucial for surmounting these barriers and promoting pain management awareness among nurses.
Digital Rectal Examination Still Plays a Crucial Role of Predicting Outcomes in the Prostate Cancer Patients Undergoing Primary Total Prostate Cryoablation
Authors: Lin Kuan-Hung , Hsieh Tsung-Yi , Chen Chung-Hsin , Pu Yeong-Shiau
Published: December 2023

Purpose:

In the management of prostate cancer (PC), outcome prediction using clinical stages determined via magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or digital rectal examination (DRE) is controversial.

Materials and Methods:

Patients with PC who received primary total prostate cryoablation (PTPC) at our institution between October 2008 and March 2021 were enrolled in this study. The primary outcome was biochemical recurrence (BCR), which was defined according to the Phoenix criteria. The concordance of clinical stages determined via DRE and MRI was measured using the weighted kappa coefficient. The Cox proportional-hazards models were used to assess the BCR risks.

Results:

A total of 230 patients with a median age of 70 years were included in the analysis. The consensus rate of clinical T stages between DRE and MRI was 60.9% with fair concordance (κ = 0.310). DRE upstaged 25 (10.9%) patients, whereas MRI upstaged 65 (28.3%) patients. During the median follow-up duration of 83.1 months, BCR occurred in 78 patients. The univariate analysis of BCR revealed that initial prostate-specific antigen, Gleason sum, and DRE-determined T stage (T3a–b vs. T1-2c; hazard ratio [HR] 1.88; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.2–2.94) were statistical predictors of BCR. However, no significant association was observed between MRI-determined T stage and BCR (T3a–b vs. T1-2c; HR 1.30; 95% CI 0.83–2.02). The multivariate models consisting of DRE-determined T stage were better than those consisting of MRI-determined T stage based on the Akaike information criteria.

Conclusion:

In the patients who underwent PTPC, DRE was a valuable technique for evaluating preoperative tumor status and predicting outcomes.

This encompasses the integration of external sensors for perception purposes and the communication interface established with autonomous vehicles, in particular to ETSI/ITS-G5, namely Signal Phase and Timing (SPaT), Map Data (MAP), Collective Perception Message (CPM), and Cooperative Awareness Message (CAM).
A Case Study on Small- and Centralized Biogas Plants and Energy Production Capacities in South Gyeongsang Province
Authors: Triolo Jin Mi , Shin Sung Gu
Published: December 2023

Objectives : The primary goals of this research were to assess the viability and practicality of small-scale village facilities as well as central commercial biogas plants. Additionally, the study aimed to create predictive models by exploring various codigestion scenarios.Methods : The study conducted a comprehensive analysis of available biomass and its maximum energy potential through anaerobic digestion in every city, county, and village within South Gyeongsang province. Five distinct codigestion scenarios were explored, encompassing assessments of processing capacity, energy production potential, and the necessary digester capacity for anaerobic digestion. At the village level, the scenarios comprised: C1, which involved sole digestion of manure; C2, codigestion of manure and food waste in a 7:3 ratio; C3, codigestion of pig slurry and slaughterhouse waste in a 9:1 ratio; C4, multiple codigestion with PS:FW:SW=6.5:2.8:0.8; and finally, C5, involving the addition of sewage and sewage sludge to the codigestion process of C4's biomass.Results and Discussion : The biomass generated in South Gyeongsang province was 9430 tons/day, with a methane production potential of 167 million cubic meters/year. This biomass had an energy production potential of 156,000 TOE/year and a potential electricity generation of 732.7 GW/year, based on the annual petroleum conversion ton. Codigestion (C5) enabled up to 720% more electricity generation compared to sole digestion of manure (C1). Mixing pig slurry and food waste in a 7:3 ratio resulted in approximately 18% more electricity production compared to the case where manure was mixed with slaughterhouse by-products in a 9:1 ratio.Conclusion : Biomass imbalance was significant in most regions, particularly due to high variations in food waste generation between regions. Obtaining alternative resources and integrating various biomass for anaerobic digestion, especially in rural areas, is crucial for achieving stable anaerobic digestion and high methane production. Regions with high biomass density are predicted to support large-scale biogas facilities following European standards, while 25 villages showed the potential for small-scale biogas facilities.
The Role and Challenges of Indonesian Broadcasting Commission (KPI) in Facing the Digitalization Era of Broadcasting Media in Indonesia
Authors: Sidiq Fahmi
Published: December 2023

This research discusses the role of the Indonesian Broadcasting Commission (KPI) in facing the challenges of digitization of broadcast media in Indonesia. KPI has the authority to make broadcast program standards and broadcasting code of conduct and supervise their implementation, including sanctioning violations. In the context of media digitization, KPI's role is crucial in ensuring that television shows do not only display the culture of consumerism, but also provide educational content that is beneficial to society. However, the implementation of digitalization does not come without obstacles. One of them is the readiness of the majority of television viewers who still use analog devices. In addition, there are technical obstacles such as broadcast interruptions and the need for special skills in operating digital devices. Nonetheless, digitization of broadcast media has many advantages, such as efficient use of frequencies and improved picture and sound quality. In facing these challenges, a joint effort is needed between KPI, broadcasters, and the public. KPI needs to continue developing appropriate regulations to support responsible and ethical digitization. In addition, broadcasters must improve their shows to not only follow the trend of consumerism, but also provide content that educates and benefits. Improving human resources in operating digital technology is also important. This research underscores the importance of KPI's role in guiding the transformation of broadcast media into the digital era, while still ensuring that the content presented is useful and in accordance with the values upheld by Indonesian society.

Published: December 2023

The Potato Tuber Moth (Phthorimaea operculella) is a destructive pest that poses a significant threat to stored potato crops, leading to substantial economic losses worldwide. The use of chemical insecticides to control this pest has drawbacks such as environmental pollution and potential harm to human health. As a result, it is critical to investigate alternate control strategies, such as botanical extracts. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of different botanicals, Azadirachta indica (Neem), Acorus calamus (sweet flag), Sapindus mukorossi (Soapnut) and their combination against the Potato Tuber Moth in stored potatoes. The research followed a randomized sampling technique, with seven treatments {T1: sweet flag (100%), T2: Neem (100%), T3: neem (50%)+ soapnut(50%), T4: soapnut powder (100%), T5: sweet flag (50%)+ Neem (50%), T6: sweet flag (50%)+ soapnut(50%), T7: control }. The treatments were applied to potatoes and data were observed, recorded, and tabulated. Our results showed that there was not a huge difference in the final result of mortality in all the treatments, all showing similar results. But when observed by counting the time factor, Acorus calamus outsmarted other bio-pesticides by killing 100% of insects in much less time. Further, all the treatments significantly affect the weight loss of potato tuber. Potato tuber treated with T1 showed the least weight loss of 1.88% of total weight followed by T6 and T4 with 2.56% and 2.58% of weight loss respectively. There was also some weight loss in the untreated potatoes due to evaporation and other physical factors. To sum up the overall result of our study, the experiment concluded that Acorus calamus (T1) had given the best result and thus it stood to be the best bio-pesticide among all.
Pricing of Aquaculture Industry Microinsurance Premiums with Standard Deviation Principle Approach (Case Study: Tasikmalaya)
Authors: Muhajirin Anang , Susanti Dwi , Riaman Riaman
Published: December 2023

Aquaculture is a rapidly growing industry and has enormous potential to increase the income and welfare of fish farmers. The majority of aquaculture businesses in Indonesia are small-scale cultivators, low productivity and limited business accessibility. As a result, there is an aquaculture industry that does not understand the use of aquaculture-specific financial risk management tools. Therefore, an insurance instrument is needed to manage losses that occur so as to achieve financial and income benefits, namely Micro Insurance. This study aims to calculate premium prices with a standard deviation principle approach. The data used is loss data if aquaculture cultivators do not pay in accordance with the initial capital in Tasikmalaya obtained through primary data based on the results of field surveys through questionnaires. The method of analyzing the number of event data uses the Poisson distribution, while the loss data uses the Exponential distribution. Next, calculate the parameter estimation using the Maximum Likelihood Estimation method. The results of parameter estimation are used to find a collective risk model. From the calculation results in this study, a premium price of IDR  was obtained.

Informasi palsu adalah informasi tersebut tidak benar, namun pihak yang menyebarkannya yakin bahwa informasi tersebut benar dan tidak ada niat untuk merugikan orang lain. Mis informasi yang tidak dapat dibuktikan keasliannya masih beredar. Dan tren ini akan semakin meningkat menjelang Pemilihan Umum (Pemilu) dan Pemilukada pada tahun 2024. Salah satu faktor yang memudahkan penyebaran hoax di masyarakat adalah tingkat angka literasi teknis yang masih rendah. Oleh karena itu, berbagai aktor mulai dari pemerintah, akademisi, masyarakat, dan mahasiswa sebagai agen perubahan menaruh perhatian dan membantu memerangi hoax.Kata Kunci: Hoaks, Potensi Kekacuan, Informasi

From the results of the above research it can be concluded: The loading and unloading process carried out at PT Global Transportindo Prima is in accordance with the procedures set by the company. Even though there were several processes that were not carried out because they were adjusted to the actual conditions that existed, overall they had complied with the existing procedures. PT Global Transportindo Prima still had not implemented a good information system so that manual recording would sometimes hamper and lack of manpower so that checking the stock of goods still uses physical files or even checks the items that are arranged. In the management of PT Global Transportindo Prima, there are many who make loans but forget to repay debts, this is due to the transfer of salaries that go to the bank.Keyword : Internal Control System

Коллекция иконописи поступила в Государственный художественный музей Югры в 2011 году из собрания Художественной галереи Фонда поколений. Большинство предметов были крайне мало изучены, так как долгие годы находились в частных собраниях и практически не публиковались. Целью настоящей статьи является введение в научный оборот ряда произведений, что даст возможность в последующем исследовать их в контексте развития иконописания в России в период c XVI по XIX век. Несмотря на то что здесь не представлена иконопись Урало-Сибирского региона, коллекция дает возможность познакомиться с иконописью Поволжья и Русского Севера, с иконописными школами Ярославля, Новгорода, Мстёры, Ростова, Вологды и другими. Статья включает описание и анализ иконографии и стилистических особенностей произведений, ряд предметов представляют особенный интерес. Материал структурирован в несколько блоков: иконы и иконография Богоматери; иконы и иконография святых Николая и Георгия; иконография Страшного Суда; академическая манера иконописания; поздняя иконопись по византийским канонам; народные иконы XIX века.

The collection of icon painting came to the State Art Museum of Ugra in 2011 from the collection of the Art Gallery of the Generations Foundation. Most of the items have been very little studied, as they were in private collections for many years and practically never published. The purpose of this article is to introduce a number of works into the scientific turnover, which will enable us to study them in the context of the development of icon painting in Russia in the period from the sixteenth to the nineteenth centuries. Although the iconography of the Ural-Siberian region is not represented here, the collection gives an opportunity to get acquainted with the iconography of the Volga region and the Russian North, with the iconographic schools of Yaroslavl, Novgorod, Mstyora, Rostov, Vologda and others. The article includes a description and analysis of the iconography and stylistic features of the works; a number of items are of special interest. The material is structured in several blocks: icons and iconography of the Mother of God; icons and iconography of Saint Nicholas and Saint George; iconography of the Last Judgement; academic style of iconography; late iconography according to Byzantine canons; folk icons of the 19th century. In analysing the works, the author relies on the studies of Y.G. Bobrov, G.I. Vzdornov, T.N. Artsybasheva, M.M. Krasilin, N.I. Komashko, R.V. Bagdasarov, A.N. Ovchinnikov, and S.N. Galunova.
