A criação de codornizes é uma alternativa interessante para os agricultores devido à sua utilização eficaz dos recursos, taxas de crescimento rápidas e acessibilidade económica. O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar as caraterísticas socioeconómicas, as técnicas de comercialização e as estratégias de gestão no sector da criação de codornizes japonesas na Argélia. Foi realizado um estudo de campo que abrangeu 108 explorações distribuídas por 23 Wilayas na Argélia, utilizando entrevistas presenciais com um questionário estruturado. A abordagem de amostragem foi efectuada de acordo com um desenho do tipo bola de neve, que é um método não probabilístico. Os resultados revelaram que o sector da criação de codornizes na Argélia é dominado por agricultores do sexo masculino (98%) com um elevado grau de instrução. Os agricultores tinham uma experiência média na criação de codornizes, com uma média de 3 anos. A produção variava significativamente consoante o tipo de criação de codornizes. Cerca de 61% das explorações utilizavam instalações de cama funda, com uma dimensão média de 2392 codornizes por exploração. Relativamente à produção, uma proporção significativa (57,41%) das explorações utilizava a criação de dupla finalidade, que envolvia a produção de carne e de ovos em pequena ou média escala. Em termos de comercialização, uma maioria significativa de criadores (43,52%) concentrou-se no mercado local. O preço da codorniz é calculado por unidade e não por peso, consoante a codorniz se destine à reprodução ou ao consumo. Este estudo melhorou a compreensão do contexto atual da criação de codornizes japonesas na Argélia, oferecendo informações valiosas para os agricultores e decisores políticos que se esforçam por otimizar e incentivar o crescimento agrícola a longo prazo neste sector.

The Amazon is rich in oil-bearing plant species, which possess valuable physicochemical, nutritional, and nutraceutical properties, with great technological and economic potential for various industrial applications. The buriti (Mauritia flexuosa) is one of the most relevant Amazonian fruits for the region due to its high levels of monounsaturated fatty acids, carotenoids, and tocopherols, demonstrating its high potential for use as an ingredient in the food industry. Although further investigations should be conducted to correlate the chemical composition with the biological benefits of regular consumption of buriti oil extracted with supercritical fluid, as well as to evaluate its characteristics and estimate possible applications, this technique has already been reported as economically viable for obtaining superior quality buriti oil. In this context, the aim of this research is to explore the supercritical extraction of buriti oil as an innovative approach for obtaining natural food ingredients from the Amazon.

Published: September 2024

Dalam menghadapi perubahan dalam industri, kepribadian proaktif sangat berperan penting dalam berbagai aspek kinerja dan dinamika organisasi. Individu proaktif cenderung lebih fleksibel dan adaptif terhadap perubahan di tempat kerja. Mereka melihat perubahan sebagai peluang daripada ancaman dan lebih mampu beradaptasi dengan cepat terhadap kondisi yang berubah. Kepribadian proaktif memiliki dampak yang signifikan pada efektivitas baik individu maupun organisasi, serta kontribusi keseluruhan terhadap lingkungan kerja yang positif dan produktif. Alat ukur yang dapat mengukur kecenderungan individu untuk bertindak secara proaktif dalam berbagai situasi yaitu Proactive Personality Scale (PPS). PPS dikembangkan oleh Bateman dan Crant pada tahun 1993. Saat ini di Indonesia belum terdapat penelitian yang melaporkan adaptasi alat ukur PPS ke dalam Bahasa Indonesia agar dapat digunakan. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk melakukan adaptasi PPS dan menguji hasil psikometri. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan metode convenience sampling dengan menyebarkan kuesioner melalui media sosial dan menggunakan Google Form. Alat ukur yang terdiri dari 17 item diberikan kepada 290 karyawan dewasa awal yang berusia 18 - 40 tahun. Hasil adaptasi menunjukkan bahwa alat ukur PPS reliabel dengan Cronbach's alpha sebesar .826. Hasil CFA menunjukkan model dapat diandalkan dan memenuhi kriteria (RMSEA = .036, SRMR = .066, CFI = .986, TLI = .984). Berdasarkan hasil CFA menunjukkan bahwa model pengukuran PPS dapat direpresentasikan untuk mengukur kepribadian proaktif pada karyawan di Indonesia.

Published: September 2024

The estimation of the clearing price in the electricity market holds significant strategic importance within the energy sector. Energy firms can enhance their operational efficiency by providing clients with more dependable price alternatives through precise estimation of the market clearing price. The precise determination of the market clearing price holds significant significance in facilitating strategic decision-making for decision makers and investors operating within the energy sector. Accurate pricing projections are crucial for ensuring stability in the energy market and enhancing energy reliability for consumers. Hence, it is imperative to employ novel methodologies and enhance the precision of predictions within the energy sector in order to ascertain precise price estimates. This study utilized hourly power data derived from various sources such as natural gas, dam, lignite, imported coal, wind, solar, geothermal, and biomass. Additionally, hourly electricity demand data was employed as input variables to estimate the clearing price of the electricity market. The study encompasses a total of 8772 hours of data collected between April 17, 2023, to April 16, 2023. The study employed linear regression, XGBoost, Random Forest, LSTM, and SVR techniques for prediction.

Based on the acquired performance measures, it was noted that the XGBoost approach exhibited the highest level of prediction performance.
Simultaneously Enhancing the Dynamic Damping and Static Strength Capabilities of Structures: A Case Study Conducted on Fly Ash-based Geopolymer Concrete Specimens using Modal, Mechanical and Microstructural Investigations
Authors: Çeçen Ferhat , Özbayrak Ahmet , Aktaş Bekir
Published: September 2024

Enhancing both the dynamic damping and static strength of ordinary Portland cement (OPC) concrete simultaneously is a significant challenge. Geopolymer concrete (GPC), particularly fly ash-based GPC, offers a promising alternative. This study explores the relationship between damping and strength in heat-cured, low-calcium fly ash-based GPC using sodium silicate (SS) and sodium hydroxide (SH) activators. The findings reveal that SS activators demonstrate stronger positive correlations between damping and strength compared to SH activators. Microstructural analysis indicated that increasing SS dosage from 55 kg/m³ to 98 kg/m³ resulted in a 17% increase in dynamic damping ratios and a 39% increase in static compressive strength. These results highlight the potential of GPC to surpass OPC concrete in applications requiring both enhanced damping and strength, offering a dual benefit not typically achievable with OPC. The study contributes to a deeper understanding of GPC's capabilities, paving the way for its broader adoption in construction projects.

MEYERHOLD AND THEATRE OF THE FUTURE
Authors:   Russian Institute of Theatre Arts (GITIS), Zaslavskiy Grigoriy A.
Published: September 2024

The new issue of the journal includes articles based on the materials presented at the international scientific conference Meyerhold. Theatre of the Future, held at the Russian Institute of Theatre Arts — GITIS under the active support of the State Institute for Art Studies. Meyerhold and GITIS — a great man and the oldest theatre institute. They are connected by history itself: Meyerhold graduated from the Music and Drama School at the Moscow Philharmonic Community. It was that famous course that inspired Vladimir Ivanovich Nemirovich-Danchenko to think and dream about a new theatre. Both Olga Knipper and Vsevolod Meyerhold were in this graduating course. Right after the graduation, the card was sent to Konstantin Sergeyevich Alekseev-Stanislavsky with a suggestion to meet. And after working with him, Meyerhold realized the need for professional education for theatre directors, which he himself lacked. His directing school was inside the Moscow Art Theatre and then followed the decades of independent search. And when Meyerhold realized the need for a systematic education of theatre directors, he came to GITIS to teach the creators of future theatre there.

Published: September 2024

The article presents materials from Marlen Khutsiev’s explanatory note to the lost joint grad- uation film of Khutsiev and Feliks Mironer Town Planners (1950). The theoretical part of the graduation film from the collection of the Russian State Archive of Literature and Art contains the aspiring filmmaker’s detailed account about the circumstances of the development of the shooting script, filming, editing, and the use of music in Town Planners, as well as his early views on the theory and practice of cinema. Due to this text, we can understand how the fundamental work principles of the future classic of Soviet cinema were formed in their general parameters, what connection exists between his graduation project and the films Spring on Zarechnaya Street, Ilyich’s Gate, July Rain, and It Was in May, and why Khutsiev did not write theoretical works subsequently, even after starting to teach at VGIK. The arti- cle contains previously unpublished excerpts from various texts about the work of Marlen Khutsiev (Victor Demin’s unfinished book Khutsiev, Leonid Kozlov’s unfinished interview with Khutsiev on the topic of “the language of cinema”, etc.).

In this context, the core issues are set: the professional responsibility of a scholar and a critic, social orientation and creative priorities of their activities.
Vera, One of the Chekov's Kin
Authors:   Russian Institute of Theatre Arts (GITIS), Litavrina Marina G. ,   Lomonosov Mоscow State University
Published: September 2024

Vera Chekhova, actress of Russian-German background, died on April 3d, this year. A grand- daughter of Michael Chekhov and Olga Chekhova (born Knipper), who both left this country in the 1920s. Grand niece of Anton Chekhov, the famous writer. The XX century scattered the representatives of the Chekhov’s kins around the world. Much less is known here in Russia about those of them, who lived abroad. Marina Litavrina, the author of this article, written in memoriam, dwells on her Berlin meetings and talks with Vera Chekhova — actress, film director and producer — referring to the circumstances, which dated back to the 1990s. Less is known by common spectators, as hardly only one out of 50 roles played by Vera and included into her filmography, appeared on the screen of the USSR and modern Russia. In spite of the fact that some of these films received prizes of Cannes film festival. As it is demonstrated by the case of Vera — beautiful woman, a person of gifts and skills, who as a director in her documentaries was well informed in current political agenda — any performer film career is highly dependent and fragile. Hardly had she implemented her cherished theatre aspirations, Chekhov’s roles among them, into being. Nevertheless, by shifting her activity to documentary cinema in her mature years, she managed to find herself and gained new field of creativity and inspiration. And moreover, throughout all her life Vera stayed true to her Chekhovian roots.
Spoken Word in M. S. Shchepkin’s Art Work
Authors:   Mikhail Shchepkin Higher Theatre School (Institute), Tripolina Victoria A.
Published: September 2024

It is generally accepted in the theatre community that the genre of the artistic expression ap- peared at the turn of the 19th — 20th centuries. It was first mentioned by A. Ya. Zakushnyak. The article puts forward the thesis that M. S. Shchepkin should be considered the founder of the genre of the artistic expression. Based on the memories and reflections on the nature of the sounding word of the well- known masters of the genre, such as A. Ya. Zakushnyak, D. N. Zhuravlev, Ya. M. Smolensky, criteria are formulated that allow certain performances to be attributed to the genre of the artistic expression. Using these criteria and basing on the historical facts (Shchepkin's reciter’s repertoire studied from reviews, letters and memoirs, a detailed description of the actor's performances) the author comes to the conclusion that M. S. Shchepkin's reading performances can be attributed to the genre of artistic expression. An attempt has been made to trace the evolution of Shchepkin as the reciter and identify the stages of his development: formation of aesthetic views; practice of the improvisational storytelling; the increasing of the reciter’s repertoire as a result of the appearance of literary works of a “large scale”. The author examines the process of the actor's working on the text, the factors that contrib- uted to Shchepkin's formation of new acting techniques. In particular, the influence of the author's language and the personality of N. V. Gogol is analyzed. The article examines how the actor's moral ideals were reflected in Shchepkin’s reciting repertoire.
Meyerhold and German Cabaret Actors of the 1910s
Authors:   Russian Institute of Theatre Arts (GITIS), Penskaya Elena N. ,   Higher School of Economics, Mikhailenko Alina S. ,   Higher School of Economics
Published: September 2024

This article explores the origins of German influences on Vsevolod Meyerhold’s cabaret prac- tice during the 1910s. It analyzes his professional interest in the early cabarets that emerged in Germany in the early 1900s, particularly the Überbrettl created by Wedekind, Birnbaum, and Baron Ernst von Wolzogen. The evolution of cabaret forms within Meyerhold’s artistic program is traced and examined through previously unpublished letters from Polish-German cabaret actor Mika Mikun, who collaborated with one of the first German literary cabarets, The Eleven Executioners, which opened in Munich in 1901. The article investigates the his- torical and cultural context in which German and Russian cabarets of the early 20th century existed. Special attention is given to the Russian-German cultural transfer: the adaptation of the established European cabaret format to Russian soil, which required the development of a unique poetic language and repertoire. The article traces Meyerhold’s conception and initiation of the first cabarets in Russia, his initial attempts at realization, and the ongoing modification, refinement, and enhancement of the literary repertoire of these early Russian cabarets. This includes the involvement of German actors, particularly Mika Mikun and Hans Strick, with whom Mikun often performed in duet. The article also considers the conceptual specificity, including the distinction between “cabaret” and “super theatre”: Meyerhold’s understanding divided them into two different formats, each requiring the development of a unique theatrical language and repertoire.
Meyerhold and the Creation of the Stage Score
Authors:   Russian State Institute of Performing Arts, Chepurov Alexander A.
Published: September 2024

The article is devoted to the problem of creating and noting of the stage score of a play as it was understood by Vsevolod Meyerhold. The creative work of the great Russian director is considered within the context of the historical process of forming ideas about the integral structure of the text of a play on stage and in the context of the development of methods for fixing the creative idea and noting of the actual text of a live performance as a theatre event. The article analyzes the activities of the scientific research laboratory (NIL) of the Meyerhold Theatre in the 1930s, where a method of creative work on the fixation of the stage scores was developed intensively, and also reveals the role of this type of activity in the preservation and study of theatre heritage.
Meyerhold on Radio: Little-known Pages of the Master's Creative Biography
Authors:   The Mikhail Shchepkin Higher Theatre School (Institute) of the State Academic Maly Theatre of Russia, Vdovina Elena A.
Published: September 2024

The article is devoted to that part of the creative biography of Vsevolod Meyerhold, which was associated with the radio theatre. At the first glance, it may seem rather strange that GosTIM’s (State Meyerhold Theatre) per- formances did not go on air until the early 1930s, while almost all the members of Moscow theatre life by this time had already appeared on the radio. But the fact is that Meyerhold, who had already worked in cinema in the past, was aware of all the difficulties that could arise when mastering a new artistic language — the language of radio. Besides the imperfection of technology of the times greatly influenced on the creative process. A comparison of the key scenes of Meyerhold’s theatre performances with their radio versions, reconstructed from the written sources, allows to trace, to some extent, the director’s mastery of the specific language of radio theatre. Studying the materials of Meyerhold’s original radio productions shows the masterly development of the sound fabric of the performance, subtle work with the actors, and discoveries in the field of special sound “scenography” of the radio theatre. Despite the fact that the history of Meyerhold’s work on radio was a short one and the number of productions was relatively small, his contribution to the development of the Soviet radio theatre directing was fundamental. In particular, his influence on the founders of the radio the- atre directing — N. O. Volkonsky, E. P. Garin and O. N. Abdulov — seems very significant. The study of the available written sources available about Meyerhold’s radio productions and especially about his original radio plays allows to consider them as bright and convincing ar- tistic statements worthy of being named the pinnacles of the early Soviet radio theatre poetics.
The Сreative Legacy of Vsevolod Meyerhold and the Formation of Aesthetics of Jerzy Grotowski
Authors:   Moscow State Academy of Choreography, Vasilyev Stanislav A.
Published: September 2024

In the article, the author examines the theory of Vsevolod Meyerhold's legacy influence on the work of Jerzy Grotowski. A comparative analysis of theatre methodologies of both masters allows the researcher to conclude that Grotowski, based on Stanislavskiy’s method, starting from Meyerhold’s theories, the aesthetics of Vakhtangov and Artaud, empirically created his own “rules of the game” in the theatre and tried to create his own method. Grotowski used all the possible tools and technologies in his search, so it is impossible to state the special influence of Vsevolod Meyerhold’s work on the formation of Grotowski's system. According to the author of the article, Grotowski’s “Meyerholdization” is mythologized. Overcoming his passion for “Meyerholdisms” and various theatre “systems”, Grotowski spent his life extracting genetic “memory” from “corporeality”, awakening forgotten knowledge of the mankind or recalling it. The cor- porality and overcoming the corporality for Grotowski was one of the theatre instruments of the actor and the elements of utterance and body language. The main technique in his system was the principle of distancing from realism and the creation of a special theatre language, a coded and encrypted one. For Grotowski, encryption in the body is like a body-memory. And according to his idea, it does not matter whether it is an actor or a spectator, in the theatre each person must decipher this coded language as inner genetic memory of the mankind.
The Music Dedication of Franz Lehár to the Austrian War Prisoners in Russia. 1915–1917
Authors:   Russian Institute of Theatre Arts (GITIS), Kolesnikov Alexander G.
Published: September 2024

The article reveals the history of Franz Lehár’s vocal composition Siberian Night (1915), adjacent to the Lider cycle and dedicated to the the First World War. The author supposes that the song written on request was a music message to the Austrian war prisoners in Siberia. The article analyzes the style, figurative content of Siberian Night, as well as a composer’s return to this material after some time, which is quite rare in music history. The song was edited and supplied with a new text Take me with you, autumn. The reasons and the socio-historical context of this act are analyzed. The hypothesis is put forward that both songs, separated by two years, formed an imaginary dialogue between the hero and the heroine, connected by spiritual kinship, but separated within the circumstances of an epochal catastrophe. That is why both songs are considered as a reflection of the actual phonosphere of the European and Russian culture of the ХХth century. The article also details the theme of music art in the Siberian war prisoner’s camps, the appearance of music groups and theatre performances there, which included the repertoire of Strauss, Lehár, Kalman, etc. New works and facts about Lehár are introduced into the scientific use, as well as the documentary evidence of the events of 1915–1920th, when the composer changed his opinion about the timeless myth of the “merry Vienna”.
Sergei Eisenstein’s “Confusion of Feelings”: Overcoming Apprenticeship Though the Biography of the Teacher
Authors:   Higher School of Economics, Ryabchikova Natalie S.
Published: September 2024

The article examines the relationship between two innovators of 20th-century theatre and cinema — Vsevolod Meyerhold and Sergei Eisenstein — and more specifically, how this re- lationship is refracted through Eisenstein’s texts (and imagination). Meyerhold, as Eisenstein’s mentor, serves as a key element in Eisenstein’s model of understanding his own development and identity as a creator. However, this understanding is not direct but is conveyed through a series of reflections, refractions, and metaphors: Saturn devouring his children; Freud push- ing away his students; Anatole France and his biographer Jean-Jacques Brousson; and the heroes of Stefan Zweig’s novella Confusion of Feelings (Verwirrung der Gefühle, published in English as Confusion). Eisenstein employs the model of “a student rejected by the teacher surpasses him” to describe the relationships between Meyerhold and Stanislavsky, as well as between himself and Meyerhold, thereby placing himself in a direct line of creative heritage. The article also explores the theme of a student writing a teacher's biography as a form of acquiring mastery, and Eisenstein’s transition, in his own understanding, from the role of a biographer to that of a subject of biography (and autobiography). Meyerhold’s biography provides Eisenstein with keys to narrativizing the pivotal moments of his own life and career. Notably, the figure of Eisenstein’s father, Mikhail Osipovich, appears and disappears in various “plots” of the film director’s biography, depending on what the biographer chooses to emphasize. Ultimately, in Eisenstein’s own memoirs, his father finds a place within the narrative model derived from Meyerhold’s biography, written by Nikolai Volkov, who has nearly Eisenstein’s biographer.
Meyerhold and Antiquity
Authors:   State Institute for Art Studies, Trubochkin Dmitry V. ,   Russian Institute of Theatre Arts (GITIS)
Published: September 2024

Vsevolod Meyerhold addressed to the ancient Greek dramas and their modern adapta- tions just for a few times in his career; but the “ancient line” can be traced through all of his creative biography starting from the role of Tiresias in Antigone in the first season of Moscow Art Theatre and up to the period of planning and unfinished project construction of Meyerhold Theatre on Triumfalnaya square in Moscow. Both ideas and images of classic antiquity are the basis of Meyerold’s artistic traditionalism. Ancient theatre, according to his belief, together with commedia dell’arte formed the basement of the professional school of any actor; that is why his classes always included exercises in ancient Greek stage practice. Meyerhold’s antiquity was not identical to the academic classicism which was the part of 19th century culture. It was very close to the new line of interpretation of antiquity which started to develop in the Russian and European art in the beginning of 20th century — the ar- chaic and ritualistic dimension of ancient harmony. Among many directions of research of “Meyerhold and antiquity” theme, the author of the article concentrates on the concepts of “idea” and “form”: Meyerhold’s interpretation of these concepts is close to their meaning in the ancient Greek classical philosophy. Studying these concepts thoroughly, leads to disa- greement of the usual interpretation of Meyerhold’s directing method as the concentration on the formal aspect of a performance, along with the usual concept of dualism of Stanislavsky’s and Meyerhold’s directing methods.

This research was conducted in the College of Agricultural Engineering Sciences, University of Sulaimani, Kurdistan Region, Iraq, to investigate the effect of different indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) concentrations (0, 1000, 2000 and 3000 mg.L-)  and rooting media (river-sand, river sand/peat moss, and perlite/peat moss) on rooting success of hardwood cuttings of quince (Cydonia oblonga Mill.). The experiment was laid out in a Factorial Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications inside a lath-house. The parameters of rooting%, root number, root length (cm), root dry weight (g), shoot length (cm), shoot diameter (mm), shoot dry weight (g), number of leaves per seedling, leaf area (cm2), and leaf chlorophyll content (SPAD unit) were measured. The effect of individual factors showed that rooting and other traits of rooted cuttings were independent of IBA effect. The highest rooting percentage (62.50%) was achieved in the control cuttings, as well as improved other traits. Also, the best rooting (64.58%) was found in the cuttings planted in river sand medium. Interaction effects of the two factors showed that control cuttings which planted in river-sand gave the highest rooting (70.83%), and the highest other root and shoot traits. River-sand and river sand/peat moss were outstanding for the quince cuttings, but IBA was not needed at the concentrations used in this study.

Published: September 2024

The integrated use of organic and mineral fertilizers is a practical and good way to preserve and sustain soil fertility, which results in increased availability of nutrients in the soil and their absorption by plants, thus increasing crop productivity. Due to the fixation of potassium in the soil, it is necessary to work to increase the vitality of agricultural soil by adding fertilizers. Organic potassium is an important means of increasing the availability of macro- and micro-nutrients. Current research was carried out in a private farm in Deir Ezzor province during the summer season of 2022 with the aim of studying the effect of adding potassium, organic fertilizer, and their interaction, on the soil content of NPK and the productivity of maize (Gouta 82 variety). A factorial experiment was conducted according to a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. The experiment included two factors: the first was potassium fertilizer (potassium sulfate: 0, 100, 150, 200 kg K.ha-1) and the second was organic fertilizer (sheep manure: 0, 15, 20, 25 tons.ha-1). Results showed that the fourth level of potassium fertilizer was significantly superior in soil content of mineral nitrogen, available phosphorus, and exchangeable potassium. The values ​​were (N: 8.27, P: 12.07, K: 267.81 mg.kg-1), and the fourth level of organic fertilizer was significantly superior to the studied soil indicators (N: 8.97, P: 12.90, K: 262.79 mg.kg-1), while the values ​​decreased in the control. In the studied plant characteristics (plant height, leaf surface area, grain yield), there is a superiority of the fourth level of potassium and organic fertilizers separately. At the remaining levels and in the control, the values ​​in potassium fertilizer were (180.98 cm, 6147.90 cm2, 7.49 tons.ha-1) respectively. In organic fertilizer, plant characteristics reached (183.49 cm, 6191.50 cm2, 7.72 tons.ha-1) at the fourth level. The interaction of the two fertilizers also had a positive effect on all soil indicators studied, as the interaction of the fourth level of potassium fertilizer with the fourth level of organic fertilizer achieved significant superiority over the rest of the interaction treatments and over the non-fertilized control (N: 9.60, P: 13.76, K: 288.27 mg. kg-1). Likewise, with regard to plant characteristics, interfering the third levels (150 kg/ha) and fourth levels (200 kg/ha) of potassium fertilizer with the fourth level (25 tons/ha) of organic fertilizer achieved the best results (186.92 - 188.20 cm, 6296.15 - 6343.98 cm2, 8.32- 8.36 tons.h-1).
