Published: December 2021

Modern electronics systems are high-speed, compact and require the use of energy-efficient digital electronics devices (DED’s) such as microcontrollers, programmable logic integrated circuits (FPGA’s), digital signal processors.

Application of  the  DED’s  is a hardware implementation of high - performance digital signal processing (DSP) algorithms based on the target architecture of the electronic device. In order to accellarate of the design process in the  direct hardware implementation of  DSP algorithms, simulation models are created to enable optimizing the design process at the stage of a creation of the  programming part for FPGA.

The paper presents the results of a study of the adaptive filter (AF) model based on the recursive least squares method (RLS). According to the analysis of time and frequency parameters of the AF model has been conducted  during  simulation it was found that the qualitative filtering process starting from the 24th order and further increasing the AF order does not significantly improve signal filtering, but only increases the required hardware resources. In process of the verification of the proposed simulation model, the AF-based noise reduction system has been modeled and the  THD  level of 7.103 % was obtained for the built-in AF unit, which is more than one and a half times higher than the proposed AF unit 4.323 %, which confirmed the efficiency of the developed AF unit.

Thus, during the study, the optimal order of AF has been determined, which will allow more efficient use of FPGA resources during the hardware implementation of AF. In accordance with the results of the study, the correctness and efficiency of the created hardware-oriented simulation model has been proved, as well as the hardware-oriented structure of the adaptive RLS filter for future implementation on FPGA nas been shown.
ENERGY EFFICIENCY OF COMBINED HEAT SUPPLY SYSTEMS
Authors: Klimov R. , Morozovskaya A.
Published: December 2021

The consumption of energy resources in the world states is constantly growing from year to year. The production of fossil fuels is also increasing, but for various reasons it cannot fully cover the required amount from consumers. One of the most important consumption sectors is heat loads from heating, ventilation and hot water supply of industrial and residential buildings. To cover the thermal loads of heating and hot water supply, the necessary heat carrier is water heated to a certain temperature. The most promising from the point of view of heating water for hot water supply are solar collectors. Hot water for heating needs to be reheated practically throughout the entire heating period. The introduction of heat pumps is promising. When using solar collectors, the heating agent can be reheated in heat pumps.

The aim of the study is to develop such a combined heat supply system that uses more renewable energy and as a peak source a fossil fuel boiler (electric energy), as well as a method for calculating this system to determine the optimal composition of equipment and rational modes of its operation.

The methodology for calculating heat supply systems combining solar collectors, heat pumps and fossil fuel boilers is presented. The problem of load distribution between the main elements of the combined heat supply system should take into account the probabilistic component. This is due to the fact that with a changing real mode of operation, different thermal load of the equipment can be optimal. This is primarily influenced by the variable heat inputs from solar collectors during the day. According to the above method, it is possible to determine the optimal parameters of the heat supply system for different operating modes, at which the minimum consumption of fossil fuel will be ensured.
STUDY OF DYNAMIC MODES OF THE SPEED-OPTIMIZED ELECTRIC DRIVE CONTROL SYSTEM UNDER CONDITIONS OF ALTER THE DESIGN VOLTAGE AMPLITUDE
Authors: Derets О. , Sadovoi О. , Derets H.
Published: December 2021

The relevance of the work is due to the need to adapt the methods of the theory of optimal control to modern technical capabilities. The complexity of optimization of control systems by variational methods led to the creation of the N–i switching method. It is characterized by the simplicity of the mathematical apparatus, however, certain methodological aspects encourage research aimed at improving this method with a focus on software implementation. The purpose of this study is to develop the mathematical apparatus of the N–i switching method by developing a technique for correcting the settings of cascade structure relay systems for speed control of electric drives, based on the use of empirically obtained data. To achieve this goal, the following tasks were solved in the work: the parameters of the mathematical model of the electric drive were calculated, on which a series of numerical experiments were performed under the conditions of varying the calculated amplitude of the voltage of the power converter, which made it possible to reveal a stable pattern of changes in the speed of the system depending on the coefficient of the calculated voltage; built a calibration diagram, which is designed to determine the correction factor in the entire range of speed control. The revealed regularity is based on the indirect influence of the varied parameters on the conditions of controllers switching, the moments of occurrence and the nature of their sliding modes. The result of the work is a method for correcting the parameters of relay controllers, which brings the duration of the speed control of the electric drive closer to the empirically set optimal value. Its implementation does not require the involvement of large additional resources and provides an improvement in the quality of transient processes. The empirical component of the proposed optimization method consists not in the direct selection of one of the key parameters of the system, but in the preliminary refinement of the initial data, which is effective within the used synthesis method. The prospect of this study is an analytical solution to the problem of determining the correction coefficient, which will contribute to the practical application of the proposed optimization algorithm.

Black Women’s Resiliency in Community College Leadership
Authors: Gause Simone A. F.
Published: December 2021

Black women leaders in higher education face a double bind of gender and racial disparity and biases within the education workforce and their institutions. The literature does not fully articulate Black women’s considerations when pursuing community college presidencies and the strategies they use to overcome the hurdles and discrimination they encounter. This research expands the literature by using critical race and Black feminist thought as theoretical frameworks to examine the ascension and succession of eight Black women leading community colleges and how they circumvented barriers associated with the male-dominated position. Findings reveal how three elements of resiliency—emotional intelligence, authenticity, and agility—contest and challenge the oppressive nature of White male privilege in gendered organizations. This newfound perspective has implications for the recruitment, retention, and persistence of faculty and administrators, leadership development programs, and succession planning at community colleges across the United States.
The development potential of Russian cattle breeding
Authors: Chinarov Vladimir I.
Published: December 2021

Production intensification at Russian cattle breeding was accompanied by negative trends in herd reproduction. Over a ten-year period, the productivity of the controlled dairy herd (more than 1.6 million heads) increased by 51.9%, and the average age of cows culling decreased from 5.3 to 4.6 years, which was the result of reduction in the period of animals productive use by 18.1%. Ignoring these objective processes and the lack of due attention to the breeding of cattle breeds with a higher productive longevity has led to the fact that at many herds of our country even simple reproduction is not provided. Repairing of the main herd is largely provided by purchased heifers, most of which are imported. The annual import volumes of breeding heifers increased by 81% and reached 72.6 thousand heads in 2019. At the same time, the import of bull semen is increasing, mainly (93.5%) of the Holstein breed from the USA, where the breeding with a limited number of bulls has been carried out for several decades, which is a consequence of the genetic weakening of the offspring and becomes the main cause of early cows culling. As a result, the number of cows at Russian dairy cattle breeding has decreased by 33.9% for ten years, the productivity at all categories of farms has increased only by 24.2% that led to reduction of milk production by 555 thousand tons. This process has not yet become irreversible, and the restoration of the lost potential at domestic cattle breeding is possible due to development of the breeding base of zoned cattle breeds.
The specifics of composer’s interpretation of the genre of prelude in Samuil Feinberg’s creativity
Authors: Nikolenko R.
Published: December 2021

The aim of the article is to determine the specifics of the composer’s embodiment of the prelude genre in the works of S. Feinberg on the example of two cycles “Four preludes” op. 8 and “Three Preludes” op. 15.

The methodology is based on an integrated approach and includes analytical, comparative, as well as structural-functional and genre-style methods.

The results are based on the identification of features of the composer’s interpretation of the piano prelude genre in the works of S. Feinberg. Due to the current trend towards the discovery of rarely-performed music, there is a growing interest in the works of S. Feinberg, whose compositional heritage is still poorly known by a wide range of performers and scientists. Some of his works, which are of undoubted artistic value, remain out of the field of view of researchers. This remark is especially appropriate in relation to the genre of prelude in the artist’s legacy, which is represented by two cycles of “Four preludes” op. 8 and “Three Preludes” op. 15. Despite the fact that the composer addressed him in the early period of his work, the originality of the composer’s writing style is clearly manifested in this genre. In the context of the relationship between the compositional style of S. Feinberg and the Scriabin creative tradition, key points are identified that distinguish the manner of interpretation of this genre. It is noted that the originality of composer’s thinking is manifested at various levels of organization of a piece of music. Focusing on the Scriabin’s style of the second period of creativity, which manifests itself in laconic thematism and the absence of a pronounced сantilena, S. Feinberg reinterprets it in figurative, semantic and pianistic terms. The manner of musical utterance of S. Feinberg is marked by greater emotional tension and expression. The composer uses a richer texture, which presents a wide variety of types of small and large piano techniques, with the latter prevailing. It applies elements of polyphonic development. Thanks to this approach to the textured solution, the virtuoso component is even more pronounced in preludes.

The scientific novelty of the results obtained lies in the fact that for the first time in Ukrainian musicology, an attempt was made to comprehend the features of the interpretation of the piano prelude genre in the works of S. Feinberg, as well as to trace the features of the creative reinterpretation of the Scriabin composer tradition in the early period of S. Feinberg’s work.

The practical significance of the study lies in the possibility of using its results in higher educational institutions of art education when working on the works of S. Feinberg in the class of special piano, as well as to deepen ideas about the specifics of the composer’s style of this artist.
Modeling of technologies for providing public support for educational reforms based on open-mindedness
Authors:   Institute of Social and Political Psychology of the National Academy of Pedagogical Sciences of Ukraine, S. Chunikhina
Published: December 2021

The key direction of modern public opinion research is to find ways to reflect a complex social reality in the public consciousness more accurately and develop tools for developing social skills of competent handling of information, especially new or constantly updated. In Ukraine, it is essential to provide public support for educational reforms, given their systemic nature and national significance. The article aims to present a structural model for technology development to provide public support for reforms in general secondary education based on open-mindedness and to determine the criteria for its effectiveness. Open-mindedness is defined as a set of cognitive and socio-emotional skills, which determine one`s ability to flexibly and adaptively handle new information and new experiences. Based on theoretical and empirical stages of research, the principles of construction of technologies of formation of public opinion based on the open-mindedness are defined: the principle of equality and interactivity of subjects of public opinion; the principle of analytical and synthetic information processing; the principle of focusing on the completeness of experience. The author proposes the model and application scenario of public opinion forming technology, taking into account the two-level manifestation and two-component structure of open-mindedness as a complex skill and the stages of its formation – from information analysis through reflexive processes to its synthesis. The author describes cognitive (critical thinking skills, ability to form a three-dimensional vision of the problem based on its essential characteristics, structured presentation of the position) and socio-emotional (providing feedback, conflict resolution with a focus on the goal, emotional literacy, empathic listening) open-mindedness criteria.

Authors: Chansareewittaya Korakot , Krajangcharoensakul Sirikarnnapa
Published: December 2021

Objective: To determine the antibiotic susceptibility patterns (antibiogram profiles) of the bacterial agents usually involved in hospital-acquired infections found in 12 sub-district health-promoting hospitals (HPHs) in Chiang Rai, Thailand.Material and Methods: Swabs from 10 different sampling points in each sub-district HPH were aseptically collected. Standard microbiological methods were performed to define the bacterial species. Antibiotic susceptibility was determined by the disk diffusion method following the standard guidelines of the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (2016).Results: The antibiogram profiles of the 153 isolated bacteria showed that 55.6% of the isolates were resistant to antibiotics. Single drug resistant, double drug resistant, and multi-drug resistant bacteria accounted for 18.3%, 18.3%, and 19.0%, respectively. The Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolate was susceptible to all tested antibiotics. MDR phenotypes were most common in coagulase-negative staphylococci (13.1%), followed by members of the family of Enterobacteriaceae (3.9%) and Staphylococcus aureus (0.7%).Conclusion: The MDR rates reported in this study are “worrying”. These results suggest that sub-district HPHs may become sources of HAIs caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria which can be inevitably transmitted into the wider community. Antibiotic stewardship, antibiotic susceptibility surveillance and hygiene practices may be used to prevent and limit the spread of such bacteria from sub-district HPHs to the community.

Authors: Olena HRABOVSKA , Oksana VITRIAK , Alina AVRAMENKO
Published: December 2021

Background. Taking into consideration the intense rhythm of life, the development of technologies for instant food products of increased nutritional value is urgent. Typically, food concentrates for desserts include fruit or fruit and berry fillings and require cooking to prepare ready-made meals. In this case, heat treatment of the mixture (boiling) negatively affects the thermolabile biologically active compounds. The aim of the work was to develop a recipe for instant food jelly concentrates of increased nutritional value based on encapsulated powdery hibiscus extract. Materials and methods. To encapsulate the aqueous-alcoholic extract of hibiscus and obtain a powdered semi-finished product, swelling potato starch was used. Rheological studies were carried out using a "REOTEST-2" rotational viscometer. Results. In order to enrich food concentrates of instant kissel with biologically active substances, we studied a method for extracting dry hibiscus flowers with aqueous-alcoholic solutions of various concentrations. It was found that the extractivity and the transfer of polyphenolic compounds, including anthocyanins, to the extract are improved when a water-alcohol mixture with an ethyl alcohol concentration of 30 % is used as an extractant. For the preparation of a powdery hibiscus extract, modified swelling starch was used, which has the property of swelling in cold water, which makes it possible not to subject the mixture to prolonged heat treatment for preparing a ready-made dish and to preserve the biologically active substances of the hibiscus extract. In addition, this starch is an effective solid carrier that plays a protective role for thermolabile vitamins and bioflavonoids. On the basis of experimental studies, formulations of instant jelly have been developed, which include fructose, powdered hibiscus extract, apple pectin and ascorbic acid. The study of the rheological properties of semi-finished products based on hibiscus extract, as well as ready-made jelly, testifies to the receipt of a finished dessert with a delicate creamy consistency. Conclusion. A method for obtaining a powdery encapsulated hibiscus extract based on swelling potato starch and a composition of a food jelly concentrate using this semi-finished product have been developed. It was found that for the extraction of raw materials it is better to use a water-alcohol mixture with an ethanol content of 30 %, since most of the anthocyanins are converted into the extract under these conditions. The developed semi-finished product of dry hibiscus extract can be used as a thickener, acidifier and colorant in recipes for food concentrates for instant dessert dishes. Due to the use of swelling starch, food concentrates of jelly do not need to be boiled, and the presence of vitamins, organic acids, flavonoids and especially anthocyanins in the hibiscus extract increases the nutritional value of the finished product.

Published: December 2021

Background. Thanks to theconstant digitalization of modern life, consumers from almost all countries now receive income from the benefits of online transactions. As the Internet spreads rapidly around the world, the number of customers using digital technologies is growing every year. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic continues to have a significant impact on digital commerce and online consumer behavioraround the world. An analysis of recent research and publications has shown that the impact of exogenous and endogenous factors on the transformation of online and offline trade remains unnoticed by leading researchers around the world. The aim is to identify current trends in the process of digitalization of world trade. Materials and methods. The main research methods are logical, analytical, graphical, tabular, and statistical. Results. The transformation of world trade has accelerated in the development of the process of digitalization of the world economy. Despite the slowdown in the growth of digital trade, there is an increase in the number of buyers and, consequently, sales. The development and application of information and communication technologies has determined the leading positions of countries in terms of foreign exchange earnings. China, the United States, Great Britain and Japan hold the undisputed championship. The other six countries, included in the TOP-10, are constantly changing, which is characterized by increased competition in this area. Conclusion. The rapid development of digital trade is due to the use of quality infrastructure that supports computer networks. Exogenous factors that will affect the competitive position of leading countries in the field of retail are the level of development of online trade, the rate of vaccination against COVID-19, modification of coronavirus infection and subsequent outbreaks of this disease, which will lead to further quarantine measures. In addition, increasing competition from developing countries should be noted. Thus, in response to exogenous changes, endogenous changes will primarily take place in the companies of the leading countries, which will be related to changes in supply chains, where the main focus will be on sustainability, excessiveness and diversification of products. Smaller retailers will continue to focus on speed and cost of delivery. It is obvious that digital trade has an inexhaustible potential of opportunities for enterprising entrepreneurs.

Authors: Mamadalieva N. , Mustafakulov M. , Saatov T.
Published: December 2021

The work was to study the effect of nerve growth factor (NGF) on the parameters of the antioxidant system in the rat brain. From the submandibular salivary glands of male mice, we isolated and purified fractions with nerve growth activity. We study the effect of NGF on the parameters of the antioxidant system – catalase, superoxide dismutase (SOD), and malon dialdehyde (MDA). It was found that the activity of catalase increases at a concentration of NGF of 5 μg, with a further growth of concentration of NGF a decrease in the activity of the enzyme was observed. SOD activity tends to increase at NGF concentrations of 5 and 25 μg. The decrease in the content of MDA is pronounced with the introduction of various concentrations of NGF. Thus, the activity of antioxidant enzymes tends to be restored in the presence of NGF. Neuroprotectors can exhibit therapeutic efficacy of antioxidants in neurodegenerative diseases and ischemic brain damage.

Aim. To assess the social status and methods of psychological protection of the individual in a number of organized populations in several typical regions (5 cities of Russia), as well as to compare the identified psychological characteristics with traditional risk factors (FR) and chronic non-communicable diseases in a prospective population study.

Material and methods. In 2010 - 2011, in five cities of Russia (Nizhny Novgorod, Veliky Novgorod,

Vologda, Nalchik, Omsk), screening was conducted on full (representative) samples from organized populations (at least 500 people in each, with a response to the survey from 80 to 90%). A total of 2,227 people were examined: 1,336 women and 891 men aged 25-75 years. In 2012-2014, a prospective (through 3 years) population study in the cities of Nizhny Novgorod, Nalchik, Veliky Novgorod and Omsk. Screening of the same organized population was conducted in 1202 people (response-64.7%). The questionnaires for assessment of social-economic status, somatic and psychological health, life style index or psychological defense mechanisms, pathogen reflection, psychotism scale, hospital scale of anxiety and depression, international stress scale, as well as the moral potential of person were methods of screening.

Results. It was exposed that among the mechanisms of psychological defenses primitive ones dominated, especially projection, replacement, denial and suppression; the pathogen reflection style was formed in the most of the respondents. In process of mathematic analysis we used the method of «simple cross-tabulation» for join all negative mechanisms of psychological defense. It gives us the possibility to show their significant connection with the most somatic diseases in the personal history (р<0,001).  

Conclusion. Psychological parameters significant dominate over physiological signs in their impact on the health. Thus it demands necessity to take into account the psychological status in the health improving process.

It Takes Two to Tango: Secondary Entry Pathway for SARS-CoV-2 Induces Analgesia
Authors: Weill Rossi R.
Published: December 2021

As severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) continues to impact the world, its mechanisms of action begin to unravel. The main entry pathway for SARS-CoV-2 into the cell is thought to be through binding to the angiotensin converting enzyme 2, but it seems another protein can induce its viral entry: neuropilin-1 receptor (NRP-1). NRP-1 is usually bound by vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A), a - amongst other- pronociceptive factor. By binding to NRP-1, the Spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 blocks neuronal signaling, reducing the pro-nociceptive implication of VEGF-A. This analgesic role of SARS-CoV-2 gave rise to an increase in screenings for new compounds that could interfere with this pathway. Preventing VEGFA from binding to NRP1 opens new possibilities for therapeutic strategies in the field of neuropathic pain.
Pinkas-notebook and pinkas-register book: evolution, structure, and composition
Authors: Zarubina Evgeniya D.
Published: December 2021

Minute books (pinkas) constitute one of the most valuable sources for studying the history of the Jewish communal institutions up to the 20th century. They comprise rich and diverse data on the everyday activities of the Jewish people. In the academic language, the word “pinkas” is applied not only to the communal minute books and minute books of the communal bodies but also to private minute books. The article deals with the development of this category of sources which evolved from private minute books dating back to at least the 11th century to the communal ones as well as the minute books of the communal bodies based on the dozen manuscript examples. These are mostly of European origin, however, with a few Eastern additions. This evolution process becomes visible as a result of the analysis of the manuscripts’ internal structure and composition. Special attention is paid to the techniques used to enforce this structure on codicological and paleographic levels. The data at hand suggest that at the beginning of the Modern period some of the minute books were shifted from private to the public domain. This was a response to the demand from the rapidly evolving communal institutions. To suit the widened audience of varying backgrounds the communal minute books compared to those for private use adopted a more uniform structure as well as with a set of “navigation” or referencing tools, such as captions written on margins. The early modern Italian communal minute books tend to be the most structured ones.

The first ghazal of the Divan of Ghalib
Authors: Prigarina Natalia I. , Vasilyeva Ludmila A.
Published: December 2021

The article offers a multi-dimensional analysis of the first ghazal from the Urdu Divan by the Indian classic poet Mirza Ghalib (1797–1869). Ghalib wrote in two languages – Urdu and Persian, but it was the completion of the Urdu Divan that made him a great poet. The article presents the history of the creation and publication of the Divan, as well as discusses its sources. The authors focus on the complexity of the style and the richness of poetic themes, images and writing techniques. They also discuss the Sufi component of the first ghazal of the Divan, thus highlighting the poetics of the ghazal. The “opening” ghazal, which is placed at the beginning of a divan usually takes over the function of the hamd, i.e. the eulogy to the Creator, which is typical for a traditional introduction to a large poetic form. However, in Ghalib’s ghazal, this praise comes in a paradoxical form, which is caused by Ghalib`s high criteria of humanism and dignity. The analysis of the first ghazal helps in many ways to understand the creative credo typical for all of Ghalib's poetry, as well as the difficult path the poet had taken, while continuously improving his art of “hunting” for a poetic word. The ghazal is discussed in the context of Ghalib’s other Urdu and Persian poetry, as well as of Sufism that prevailed in India of Ghalib’s time.
Women Political Activism and Public Spaces in Pashtun Society in Pakistan
Authors: Rahim Salma
Published: December 2021

In this research article I comprehend that how women in Pashtun society, even with limited entree to civic places, manage to join and contribute in numerous political undertakings, and how their role adds to growing communal and political spaces for women. For my research work I interviewed politically active women of Swabi from lower and middle class. I used the method of convenience sampling. Gulalai Ismail (a women right activist from Swabi) facilitated me in conducting interviews. According to those women, it is reflected indecent in Pashtun society for women to be outside their homes in public.

Division of British India culminated into two new states of Hindu-majority India and Muslim-majority Pakistan. However, both Pakistan and India remained hostile since their inception. Multiple factors are responsible for their rivalry, such as the disputed Kashmir, water issues, communal riots, and assets distribution, etc. This affected the South Asian politics and invited the major powers to play their political game by influencing Indian and Pakistan's positions. The paper analyzes the bilateral conflict of India and Pakistan, their techniques to maintain the balance of power, and the role of major powers. The study also examines the foreign policies of India and Pakistan and their due positions since independence. The theory of balance of power has been applied to this study to explore the various aspects and prerequisites of BOP. The paper relies on qualitative methods of research to describe the positions of India and Pakistan in their strategies of the balance of power.

Propaganda Warfare: Indian Disinformation Campaign against Pakistan
Authors: Imran Sumeera , Zafar Mohammad Ali
Published: December 2021

Access to sources of information has allowed states to use media as a tool of propaganda warfare. It can be observed that within the South Asian theatre, India and Pakistan are involved in propaganda warfare, spreading disinformation campaigns with the aim to disrepute the other's international image. To understand the techniques of propaganda warfare, Edward Herman and Noam Chomsky's propaganda model provides a befitting conceptual cushion to study propaganda warfare techniques using news media to propagate disinformation. This paper tends to focus on how New Delhi exercises control over news media to portray Pakistan as a failed state, a safe haven for terrorist organizations, installing anti-army information, building war hysteria in South Asia, and targeting Pakistan's stance on Kashmir and Balochistan. The paper argues that Indian news media has become a tool in the hands of the Indian political elite in generating false propaganda against Pakistan.
Prilog o višejezičnosti socijalista u Kasnohabsburškoj Rijeci
Authors: Jeličić Ivan
Published: December 2021

Rad donosi podatke o Samueleu Mayländeru (1866. – 1925.),
socijalističkom vođi kasnohabsburške Rijeke i njegovoj obitelji. Mayländeri su
bili podrijetlom židovi iz jugozapadne Ugarske, doseljeni u Rijeku krajem 19.
stoljeća. Doseljeni Mayländeri uspješno se integriraju i asimiliraju u riječko
i sjevernojadransko građansko društvu, neki udajom za pripadnike građanskih
obitelji i obraćenjem na katoličku vjeroispovijest, a drugi uspješnim poslovnim
karijerama. Zbog pomanjkanja primarne građe teško je dati odgovor na jezične
prakse među pripadnicima obitelji. Ipak, iz objavljenih nekrologa u riječkim
novinama, dokumentacije iz gimnazijskih dana i bračnih veza može se zaključiti
kako je obitelj bila višejezična. Istraživanje je biografije samoga
Samuelea Mayländera problematično jer, također, ne posjedujemo građu iz koje
možemo neposredno razabrati njegove političke, nacionalne ili vjerske preferencije.
Svakako, Samuele Mayländer bio je socijalističkoga opredjeljenja, kasnije i
prvi predsjednik Komunističke partije Rijeka, ali i ličnost koja je bila pod
utjecajem dominante riječke talijanske kulturne paradigme. Studij medicine u
Beču, javna angažiranost i politička aktivnost ukazuju na Mayländerova opredjeljenja,
ali, kao i ugarsko židovsko obiteljsko podrijetlo, i na njegovu višejezičnost.

Na kraju, rad prati biografske
podatke o Pavlu Kirchenknopfu, metalurškom radniku rodom iz Ugarske, koji
početkom 20. stoljeća doseljava u Pulu i kasnije s obitelji u Rijeku. U Rijeci
je Pavle Kirchenknopf označen kao socijalistički, odnosno komunistički aktivist
i takvim zapamćen od lokalne historiografije. Biografija Pavla Kirchenknopfa
korisna je za propitkivanje spoznaja o osobama radničkoga podrijetla i pitanja
njihovih jezičnih praksi. Po sporadičnoj građi, iz matičnih knjiga rođenih u
Puli i migracijama Kirchenknopfa, može se pretpostaviti kako se obitelj služila
s više jezika.
Zaključno, rad ukazuje kako pored
pitanja višejezičnosti, socijalne i ekonomske teškoće trebaju biti uzete u
obzir u društvenim i kulturnim povijestima sjevernoga Jadrana u kasnohabsburškom
razdoblju, teškoće koje ostaju u pozadini idealiziranjem višejezičnoga
habsburškog svijeta.
