N. I. Novikov’s Literary Priorities
Authors:   Institute of Russian Literature (the Pushkin House), Russian Academy of Sciences, Kochetkova N. D.
Published: November 2020

The article examines N. I. Novikov’s testimonials regarding the most prominent Russian writers of his time. In his satirical journals of 1769–1773, he spoke with particular praise about the works of A. P. Sumarokov, giving him obvious preference over M. V. Lomonosov. V. P. Petrov, proclaimed «the second Lomonosov», would often become the subject of his satirical attacks. Later, the critic condemned certain «depraved opinions» by Sumarokov, yet continued to hold in high esteem his literary talent. At the same time, Novikov conducted a continuous polemics with Catherine II’s magazine Vsiakaia Vsiachina, where V. K. Trediakovsky, whose merits Novikov greatly appreciated, was often ridiculed. His historical studies helped him to grasp the general course of development of Russian culture, and in the journal St. Petersburg Scientifi c Gazette for 1777, he paid tribute to each of the writers.

Authors:   Bunin Yelets State University, Podoksenov A. M.

D. I. Fonvizin as the «Russian Boileau»: Towards the Origin of the Titulatory Formula in N. I. Novikov’s Satirical Journals
Authors:   Independent Researcher, Simankov V. I.
Published: November 2020

The present article deals with the question of attributing Nicolas Boileau’s Russian translations originally published by Nikolay Novikov in the magazine "Zhivopisets" (1772). Given the fact that Fonvizin was frequently called the «Russian Boileau» by his contemporaries, as well as taking into consideration the textual parallels between the anonymous Russian translation of "Sur l’Homme and An Epistle to My Servants" (1769) by Fonvizin, it seems possible to conclude that Fonvizin might be the translator of the French satire into Russian.

Even though critics and numerous readers disapproved of Pisemsky’s strategy, it ranks as a significant episode in the history of the Russian novel.

What the Dweller of the Vyborg Side Has Said about Translation
Authors:   Institute of Russian Literature (the Pushkin House), Russian Academy of Sciences, Baskina (Malikova) M. E. , Volkov A. V. ,   Institute of Russian Literature (the Pushkin House), Russian Academy of Sciences
Published: November 2020

The pseudonym «Dweller of the Vyborg Side» has been written into the history of Russian Romanticism by P. A. Vyazemsky, who gave his programmatic pro-Romantic preface to A. S. Pushkin’s poem "The Fountain of Bakhchisaray" — a title, Conversation Between the Publisher and the Classic from the Vyborg Side or Basil Island (1824). Analysis of the only text published under this pseudonym, the critical article «On Translations», that appeared in three issues of Blagonamerenny magazine in 1822–1823, shows that it was by no means a programmatic attack of the «Classics» of N. A. Tsertelev type, aimed against «the new school of poetry», but a petty, imitative, self-contradictory statement authored presumably by B. M. Fyodorov and A. E. Izmaylov and made primarily in the interests of Blagonamerenny and the inner polemics within VOLRS (Free Society of Champions of Russian Literature).

On the Meaning of Parallel Scenes and Cross-Cutting Motives in F. M. Dostoevsky’s «Super-Novel»: The Search for a Method Between Innokenty Annensky and the «New Criticism»
Authors:   University of Perugia, Plyukhanova M. B.
Published: November 2020

The article is based on the idea that fi ve Dostoevsky’s novels can be interpreted as one continuous text. This opinion has already been expressed by Vyacheslav Ivanov, Petr Bitsilli and others, in various frameworks. The article shows how certain scenes and details migrate from one novel to the other, gaining key positions in the novels’ structure. Scenes involving a coffi n with the body of a victim (a woman, a child), are analyzed: flowers, birds, a fly acquire different functions and meanings in such scenes in "Crime and Punishment", "The Idiot", "The Eternal Husband", "The Brothers Karamazov". The concept of one continuous work («great novel», or «super-novel») takes shape through correspondences and contrasts between such images and details.

Published: November 2020

Infertility is a common and important problem of many women in today’s life. Poly cystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is the origin of the infertility. This endocrine disorder affects women’s reproductive system. It also causes other problems like cardiovascular diseases, diabetes mellitus, etc. Among the various imaging modality, Ultrasound plays a major role in the diagnosis of PCOS since it is harmless, painless and non-invasive. Even though ultrasound image has so many advantages, due to poor image quality, inherent noise, overlapping of follicles and operator’s lack of prior knowledge, analyzing the characteristics of the scanned image is more challenging. Now a day, several image processing techniques are available to make this process easier. A commonly used segmentation method is Otsu’s threshold-based segmentation technique. But, it is suitable only for the high contrast image. To make this method suitable for all the images, Adaptive Otsu’s Technique (AOT) is developed and also achieved more desirable segmentation of the region of interest (ROI). In MIMO system , mutual coupling degrades the antenna performance to overcome this we go for circular polarization. In this paper, compact circular polarization and planar

Authors: Kirihara Taiga , Matsumoto Kazuyuki , Yoshida Minoru , Kita Kenji
Published: November 2020

In recent years, young people have not been watching television (TV) as much as they used to. This is mainly because a number of TV programs are very long and/or have limited viewing times. Recently, individuals have been actively posting live-action tweets on Twitter to comment on TV content while watching programs in real time. In this study, we propose a method for extracting key phrases related to the event scenes of TV programs using live tweets, and we propose a scene search system that aims at efficient TV program viewing. The experimental results indicated that the program contents were estimated with an error of approximately 5% to 10% with respect to the program time. In addition, the extracted key phrases were visualized for each event scene category using the t-SNE algorithm.

A Simple, Inexpensive, and Portable Image-Based Technique for Nondestructive Leaf Area Measurements
Authors: Agehara Shinsuke , Pride Lillian , Gallardo Mariel , Hernandez-Monterroza Jose
Published: November 2020

This new 6-page article, part of a series introducing various image-based measurements for horticultural research, introduces a simple, inexpensive, and portable image-based technique for nondestructive leaf area measurements. It uses an imaging apparatus made with ordinary office supplies to obtain leaf images in greenhouse or field environments. Leaf images are then processed and analyzed to measure leaf area using ImageJ, an open-source image processing program. Because both image capture and analysis are performed nondestructively, leaf area can be measured on the same leaf repeatedly, enabling the monitoring of leaf growth over time, as well as photosynthesis and transpiration. This technique is particularly useful to researchers and students studying leaf growth and physiology in greenhouse or field environments.

Introduction: One of the goals of the health system is to ensure that people are healthy. Reaching this goal is only possible through the provision of the proper services. The satisfaction of patients with the quality of health care services is used as a questionare to investigate the effectiveness of hospital services concerning consumption management and patient care quality. It assists managers and the decision-making network to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the system. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the satisfaction of hospitalized patients in educational and medical centers of Rasht City, Iran with the “Health Care System Reform Plan” in 2019. Materials and Methods: The present study is an analytical cross-sectional study. A total of 395 patients hospitalized in educational and medical centers of Rasht City were selected based on the stratified random sampling method and according to the inclusion criteria. The study data were collected by a questionnaire examining patients' satisfaction with the “Health Care System Reform Plan” developed by the Treatment Deputy of Guilan University of Medical Sciences. The questionnaire has 37 questions in 5 areas of patient’s satisfaction with hoteling, hospital bills reduction program, resident physician program, notification program, the program for the promotion of normal childbirth. Data analysis performed using descriptive statistics indicators and Mann-Whitney U, Kruskal Wallis, and logistic regression model. Results: The results showed the mean±SD of samples' age was 43.51±18 years. The majority (23.8%) of the samples were less than 30 years old. Moreover, there was a significant difference between satisfaction score of the Plan (P = 0.009) in terms of gender, hospital bills (P = 0.001), resident physicians (P = 0.009), and notification program (P = 0.032). Also, men had a higher overall score than women. The findings of this study showed that the mean ± SD satisfaction was equal to 82.8 9.1 with a minimum score of 39.71. In the logistics model, only two variables of the hospital (P = 0.017) and job (P = 0.001) were considered as the most important factors related to the overall satisfaction with the “Health Care System Reform Plan.” Conclusion: Based on the results of the study, patients' satisfaction with the implementation of the “Health Care System Reform Plan” was at the acceptable level and various factors have contributed to this level of satisfaction.

Published: November 2020

Introduction: Mothers can immediately recognize the strength of their child’s development process, thereby, providing early stimulation to the child’s physical, mental, and social aspects of growth and development. Therefore, mothers and their skills play a beneficial role in the child’s overall development and growth process.  Objective: This study aimed to determine the effect of the mother’s independent stimulation on the growth and development of infants. Materials and Methods: This was a quasi-experimental study with a nonrandomized pretest-posttest design. The study population included mothers and their 0- to 12-month-old infants with a history of Low Birth Weight (LBW) who met the inclusion criteria. The study was conducted in Karang Pule Health Center’s service area in Mataram City, Indonesia. The length measuring tools and digital infant scale were used to measure the developmental factors. Also, the prescreening development questionnaire was used to assess the infants’ development. The frequency, mean, and standard deviation were used as descriptive statistical analysis, also, the Wilcoxon test was used for bivariate analysis. Results: The growth and developmental scores of the infants with LBW increased after receiving the independent stimulation from their mothers. The observed changes were as follows: The Mean±SD weight gain of 547.33±1459.40 g, the Mean±SD body length increase of 3.46±6.32 cm, the Mean±SD head circumference increase of 1.65±3.40 cm, and the Mean±SD infants’ development increase of 0.83±2.16 cm. Furthermore, the mother’s independent stimulation affected the growth (P=0.0001; body length, weight, and head circumference) and the development (P=0.04) of the infants with LBW history. Conclusion: Mother’s independent stimulation significantly influences the growth (body length, weight, and head circumference) and the development of infants with LBW history. Further studies in this area are recommended.

Published: November 2020

Introduction: Improving the Quality of Life (QoL) is considered one of the main objectives in the care of cancer patients. Achieving this objective, it is essential to determine the factors affecting QoL in cancer patients. The studies in the literature have determined the effects of various factors on QoL but social support from family has remained to be studied.  Objective: The present study aimed to determine the relationship between perceived social support from family and QoL in cancer patients. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in an oncology unit of a university hospital in İzmir City, Turkey, from March to October 2019. A convenience sample of 276 cancer patients participated in the study. A patient identification form, the Perceived Social Support from family scale (PSS-Family), and the Quality of Life index-cancer version (QLI-C) were used for data collection. The scores of PSS-Family and QLI-C range from 0 to 20 and from 66 to 396, respectively. Regression analysis was used to estimate the effect of perceived social support from family on QoL. Results: Of the participants, 65.2% were female. The Mean±SD age of the study sample was 47.5±14.4 years. Also, the Mean±SD scores of PSS-Family and QLI-C were 16.43±3.01 and 307.77±27.48, respectively. Regression analysis revealed that perceived social support from family was associated with a relative increase in QoL index (B=3.44, P=0.001, R2=0.141). Conclusion: Perceived social support from family is positively associated with QoL in cancer patients. Nurses should consider this relationship when they plan to improve the QoL of cancer patients.
The «chispismo»: a communist dissidence in the 1920s.
Authors:   Universidad de Buenos Aires (Argentina), Alejandro Belkin, , Diego Ceruso ,   Universidad de Buenos Aires (Argentina)
Published: November 2020

In the 1920s, the Communist Party of Argentina (PC) went through three major crises that ended in split processes. This article analyzes the origins and development of the second of these factional struggles, which led to the formation of a new political organization, the Com-munist Workers Party. The dissident fraction was called "chispistas" in reference to the name of its newspaper. We are interested in studying the links that the new party established with the labor movement and its union structures. The intention is to contribute to a better under-standing of the communist experience and to contribute to the recon-struction of the history of the Argentine left in its connection with the labor movement.
Francisco Franco and Social Policy in Spain in the 1960-1970s

Published: November 2020

Social policy has been an important part of Francoist ideology since the early years of the regime. However, it was only in the 1960s, when the social security system in Spain appeared. During this time, the country experienced high economic growth, which allowed the Franco regime to increase social spending. For Francisco Franco himself, social policy in the 1960s became an important source of legitimacy of his rule. At the legislative level, the term "social services" appeared, and the state rather than private enterprises was made responsible for their provision. As a result, over the last 15 years of the Franco regime in Spain, a number of laws sought to unify the system of social services and gave more people access to them. Despite the progress, Franco's social policy preserved some previous shortcomings, i.e. a number of special social programs for certain categories of the population, as well as the fact that a significant part of social security was funded by the employees themselves.
Badges on the Spanish coins of 17th century
Authors:   Institute of World History of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Kirill Elokhin
Published: November 2020

The article is devoted to the study of badges depicted on the coins of the last Spanish Habsburgs (Philip III, Philip IV, Charles II). The badges on the coins of the first Habsburgs on the Spanish throne in the 16th century have already been studied, however, the badge culture re-flected in the coins as a whole, especially systemically, has not been studied. Historiography devoted to this problem is practically absent, many researchers focus only on the arms, therefore a decision was made about such a study. The article discusses a number of problems related to coin minting in both the Old and the New Worlds, changes in badg-es, the partial loss of some trends in the Spanish badge culture, and the influence of the Spanish badge tradition on other cultures. The minting of coins with badges in the vice kingdoms outside the Iberian Peninsu-la is also being studied. Spanish Habsburgs in the 17th century on Ital-ian coins, with the help of mottos, revealing the meaning of the mes-sages to patrials, sought to show in their badges the zeal in defending the faith, the desire to establish peace and abundance. In Milan, com-memorative coin-like tokens with badges were dedicated to the visits of the Spanish queens. Perhaps this was a local peculiarity of reverence and respect for the suzerain and members of his family. The article ex-plores new trends in coinage with the predominant use of monograms and propaganda issues.
Venezuela: the trajectory of the development of the labor movement
Authors:   Institute of Latin America of the Russian Academy of Cience, Dmitri Rozental
Published: November 2020

The article is devoted to the labor movement in Venezuela and the in-fluence on it of the Communist International. The origin and evolution of independent trade unions, their social activities are considered. The tactics and forms of struggle for the rights of workers and the effective-ness of these actions in different historical periods of the Latin Ameri-can country are analyzed. Despite the opposition of the authorities, their desire to limit or control trade unions, they have become an important factor in political life. At the same time, the author concludes that there is a strong ideological polarization of the syndicates, which weakens their opportunities. This disunity is used by governments which are seeking to monopolize the decision-making process. In addition, the current state of trade unions in the Bolivarian Republic and the attitude of the administrations of U. Chavez and N. Maduro towards them are touched
Modelling and Control of a Hydropower Plant in Dealing with the Speed Control Problem of Synchronous Generators
Authors: Dao Thi-Mai-Phuong
Published: November 2020

Maintaining the rotational speed of synchronous generators in a hydropower plant is a vital control strategy in power system stability and operation. It is because such rotational speed is proportional to the output frequency of the synchronous generator, thereby it strongly affects the stability of the electric power grid. This paper presents a study regarding the modelling and control of a hydropower plant to maintain the generator speed. This study is divided into two main parts. A well-used model of an isolated hydropower plant is established in this study at first; then two controllers including conventional PI and intelligent fuzzy logic regulators are investigated to speed control of the generator. Simulations implemented in MATLAB/Simulink package demonstrate effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed speed controllers.
