The impact of the language barrier on the success of Hungarian minority women in the higher education system of Serbia
Authors: Lendák-Kabók Karolina
Published: July 2017

The subject of the paper is to analyze the impact of the language barrier
faced by Hungarian minority female professors and students in the higher
education sys?tem of Serbia. The aim of this paper is to propose measures
which might allow Hungarian minority students to overcome the language
barrier more easily and to raise awareness for the need of more Hungarian
women in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics
(STEM). The analysis is based on twenty four semi-structured interviews
conducted with minority Hungarian female professors and students, who are
working or studying at the University of Novi Sad, Serbia. Interviews were
conducted with a pre-composed questionnaire between the end of 2014 and the
beginning of 2015. Interviewees were chosen with a snowball sampling method.
Results of analysis show that the majority of Hungarian women face a language
barrier at the start of their studies, mostly because of their limited
knowledge of the majority?s language. These barriers were more pronounced in
Hungarian female students than with professor. This phenomenon can be
attributed to the time in which they grew up, or to a different social
environment of the twentieth century, when bilingualism was completely
natural, from which, less segregation of the nations resulted and a better
knowledge of the Serbian language. The professors particularly point out that
being bilingual is a great advantage and that their knowledge of several
languages was a key advantage in their academic careers. With the analysis of
the interviews it was determined that the language barrier was mostly
pronounced for students of social sciences and humanities (SSH), where
language is the primary tool of communication. The language barrier was less
important for the students studying in STEM sciences, where students and
professors interact through formulas and written exams.
The need for cognition within the academic motivation space
Authors: Vasic Aleksandar
Published: July 2017

The self-determination theory presumes several types of motivation
distributed along the theoretical continuum. On the other side, certain
research studies point to the need for cognition which is the source of
internal motivation, as one of the aforementioned types of motivation. This
theoretical and conceptual closeness served as an impetus for the research
conducted on the convenient sample of 364 students of both genders (59% of
female respondents), aged 18 to 35 (M=20.05; SD=1.52). In generating the
data, the Academic Motivation Scale for Students (AMS-SI) and the shortened
version of the Need for Cognition Scale (NFCS-S) were used. During data
analysis, we first checked the internal metric characteristics of the scales
and quantitatively defined the features measured by these instruments. In
locating the need for cognition within the academic motivation space,
hierarchical multiple regression analysis and multidimensional scaling were
used. Four valid and reliable dimensions of student academic motivation were
defined as internal, introjected and external motivation, and amotivation.
One dominant, reliable and valid main subject of measuring of the need for
cognition scale was defined as well. In the common space of academic
motivation and the need for cognition, internal motivation clearly stands
out as the basic correlate of this need. Future research should further
reexamine the assumption of the self-determination theory about three basic
psychological needs vital for the development of motivation.
Mathematics and science teachers’ beliefs about innovations in teaching: A qualitative study
Authors: Dzinovic Vladimir
Published: July 2017

The paper explores the ways in which mathematics and science teachers in one
primary school perceive innovations in teaching that they implemented during
inservice training. We started from the recent findings pointing to the
prevailing perceptions of obstacles and an anxious and antagonistic attitude
of teachers towards innovations. Hence, the aim of our research was to see
whether we would obtain similar findings with the teachers who attended a
training course for implementing innovations within the Trefoil project.
Research participants were seven teachers. We analysed their conversations,
which took place during the meetings of the expert council, about the
experiences with implementing innovations. The results have shown that the
teachers had the perception that innovations ensured higher quality knowledge
and additionally motivated students. Still, the predominant narratives were
those about the obstacles referring to the lack of time, difficulties in
developing teaching activities and grading system, restrictions in the
curriculum, as well as the lack of readiness and cooperation on the part of
students and parents. A novelty compared to the previous studies was that we
cannot speak about typical reactions. Instead, teachers? attitude towards
innovations changed depending on whether the experiences were positive or
they encountered problems in their implementation. The recommendations for
the practice of in-service teacher training and further research are provided
in the final part.
Teachers’ implicit beliefs about the students of the Roma and the Hungarian cultural group
Authors: Dimitrijevic Bojana , Petrovic Danijela , Leutwyler Bruno
Published: July 2017

Research has shown that the beliefs about cultural, ethnic or racial
diversities among students are vital for the effective work of teachers.
Hence, in this paper, we aim at determining: (1) in what ways the teachers
perceive and interpret the school situation that includes the students from a
minority cultural group (Roma and Hungarian), i.e. what kinds of beliefs they
express in the given situation; (2) whether there are any differences in the
way in which teachers, within the same stadium of development of
intercultural sensitivity, perceive the given situation. The sample included
class teachers whose score on the Intercultural Development Inventory pointed
to intercultural sensitivity in accordance with the stadium of minimisation
(seventeen teachers) and polarisation (six teachers). The Critical Incident
Technique (CI) was applied in the study, in two parallel forms: with a
Hungarian and a Roma student. Thematic analysis yielded seven topics, four of
which occurred only in the CI with a Roma student: Disrespecting school as an
institution, Abuse of minority status, Separation from the class and Typical
children?s motives. The comparison of teachers? statements depending on the
CI version and the developmental phase indicate that the specificity of a
cultural group in question affects the expressed beliefs about this group,
regardless of teachers? intercultural sensitivity.
The contribution of a special educational institution to a more inclusive society
Authors: Jeznik Katja , Mazgon Jasna , Skubic-Ermenc Klara
Published: July 2017

Despite the fact that the integration model of education was introduced in
Slovenia 17 years ago, the inclusion of persons with special needs into
education and community remains a major challenge. In order to improve their
opportunities, the largest special school in Ljubljana has for ten years
organised an international festival Play with me, with the main aim of
supporting inclusion of people with special needs with the rest of the
population. The organisers aim to create opportunities for all to take part
together in various play, sport and artistic activities. The paper presents
the findings of a study in which the inclusive practices of the festival
were researched and evaluated. The study was aimed at gaining a deeper
understanding of the role a special school can play in the creation of a
more inclusive society. Data were gathered using an online questionnaire
targeting the mentors and volunteers who accompanied participants at the
festival. 132 mentors and 64 volunteers responded. The quantitative
non-experimental empirical analysis of the data has indicated that the
respondents recognised the inclusive nature of the festival. The festival
proves that inclusion is a multifaceted phenomenon which can be supported by
various activities and endeavours.
Thermal unit commitment solution using an improved Lagrangian Relaxation
Authors: Farid Benhamida  , E. N. Abdallah  , A. H. Rashed
Published: July 2017

An improved Lagrangian relaxation (LR) solution to the thermal unit commitment problem (UCP) is proposed in this paper. The algorithm is characterized by: (1) a new Matlab function to determine the optimal path of the dual problem, (2) new initialization procedure of Lagrangian multipliers, based on both unit and time interval classification, (3) a flexible adjustment of Lagrangian multipliers, and (4) a dynamic search for uncertain stage scheduling, using a Lagrangian relaxation - dynamic programming method (LR-DP). After the LR best feasible solution is reached, and when identical or similar units exist, a unit decommitment is used to adjust the solution. The proposed algorithm is tested and compared to conventional Lagrangian relaxation (LR), genetic algorithm (GA), evolutionary programming (EP), Lagrangian relaxation and genetic algorithm (LRGA), and genetic algorithm based on unit characteristic classification (GAUC) on systems with the number of generating units in the range of 10 to 100. The total system production cost of the proposed algorithm is less than the others especially for the larger number of generating units. Computational time was found to increase almost linearly with system size, which is favorable for large-scale implementation.
Energy consumption and feasibility study of a hybrid desiccant dehumidification air conditioning system in Beirut
Authors: K. Ghal
Published: July 2017

In this work, the transient performance of a hybrid desiccant vapor compression air conditioning system is numerically simulated for the ambient conditions of Beirut. The main feature of this hybrid system is that the regenerative heat needed by the desiccant wheel is partly supplied by the condenser dissipated heat while the rest is supplied by an auxiliary gas heater. The hybrid air conditioning system of the present study replaces a 23 kW vapor compression unit for a typical office in Beirut characterized by a high latent load. The vapor compression subsystem size in the hybrid air conditioning system is reduced to 15 kW at the peak load when the regeneration temperature was fixed at 75 °C. Also the sensible heat ratio of the combined hybrid system increased from 0.47 to 0.73.
Based on hour by hour simulation studies for a wide range of recorded ambient conditions of Beirut city, this paper predicts the annual energy consumption of the hybrid system in comparison with the conventional vapor compression system for the entire cooling season. The annual running costs savings for the hybrid system is 418.39 USD for a gas cost price of 0.141 USD/kg. The pay back period of the hybrid system is less than 5 years when the initial cost of the hybrid air conditioning system priced an additional 1712.00 USD. Hence, for a 20-year life cycle, the life cycle savings of the hybrid air conditioning system are 4295.19 USD.

EXPLORING THE POTENTIAL OF FACEBOOK FOR BLENDED LEARNING
Authors: Djiwandono Patrisius Istiarto
Published: July 2017

The paper reports a small-scale exploratory research into the potential of Facebook for blended learning. It sets out to find answers to two research objectives: (1) ) identify the learners' opinions about the use of Facebook as a means of learning reading and job interview in English, and (2) determine the effect', of blended learning on the learners' mastery of new vocabulary. Twenty-five freshmen students of class 2008 who were taking English class at Ma Chung University were taken as the respondents. After a pre-test was administered to them to identity their initial vocabulary mastery, an online task was assigned to them. The task required them to learn interview techniques, upload their own interview session, and read texts. A face to face interaction followed to deal with difficulties and clarify some issues. A post-test measuring their vocabulary growth and questionnaires to identify their opinions were then given at the end of the experiment. The result shows that while gaining significantly higher mastery of new words, the learners expressed different opinions on the use of Facebook as a means of blended learning. The majority felt that face-to-face interaction still needs to accompany the online session to clear up some difficulties and misunderstanding during the online session, while a few others opted for exclusively online session because of its efficiency and higher participation rate by passive learners.

Authors: Jurianto Jurianto , Salimah Salimah , Kwary Deny A
Published: July 2017

Writing skill has been considered the most difficult language skill to master, and teaching the skills has also been not simple. Part of a research report on teaching writing in English at a senior high school in Surabaya, this paper is aimed to demonstrate that English teachers at the school are skillful and resourceful in teaching writing. With reference to 11 elements or strategies of writing instruction discussed in Graham and Perin (2007), five English teachers at die school were interviewed. The interview guide includes 24 questions centered on the 11 elements. Interview results show that the teachers make vise of most elements or strategies in their English classes. The teachers explained that such strategies as collaborative writing, sentence combining, prewriting, inquiry activities, and study of models are conducted frequently in the classroom. They found the strategies important and helpful for teaching writing skills in English to their students. The findings indicate that a variety of writing instruction strategies have been part of their teaching practice and that they are experienced in teaching writing skills in English to adolescent students.
DECONSTRUCTING FALSE IDENTITY: EXPLORING GENDER DISCRIMINATION AND ROLE-PLAYING IN THE GIRL WHO TOUCHED THE STARS
Authors: Sankhyan Neeraj , Sigroha Suman
Published: July 2017

Mahesh Dattani, is an avant-garde Indian English dramatist known for his radical and unconventional dramatic themes. His plays are characterized by an extremely sensitive temperament that delves into the intricacies of the human nature and strives to expose the hypocrisy of the urban life and society. This paper discusses his play The Girl Who Touched the Stars as a quest for a lost identity. In doing so, the paper sheds light upon the underlying themes of gender discrimination, misogyny and role-playing that the playwright uses in this play to show how much these evils are rampant even amongst the educated classes of the society. Specifically, the paper explores the deconstruction of identity of the protagonist as employed by the playwright and examines the implications this technique has on the narrative of the play. The interconnection between the role-playing and the inherent theme of gender discrimination is also analyzed in order to see how these elements complement each other. Also, the paper comments on the efficacy of radio drama as a medium for handling a sensitive theme like this.

Authors: Isti’anah Arina
Published: July 2017

This research is an investigation into the language use in peoples opinions of capital punishment for drug convicts in The Jakarta Post. Capital punishment was executed to six drug convicts on January 18th , 2015. Controversy about this action has risen before and after the execution. People give their opinions in social media, such as Facebook, Twitter, blogs, and newspapers. The Jakarta Post is a well-known English newspaper in Indonesia which has a lot of readers. People choose this newspaper to convey their ideas so that their opinions will be read by people around the world. As the issue about capital punishment is popular recently, this research attempts at finding out peoples ideology about capital punishment for drug convicts. Critical discourse analysis was conducted in this research as an approach to figure out how language use by the people can reveal their ideology of capital punishment. This research focused on observing four opinions of capital punishment for drug convicts in The Jakarta Post. The analysis shows that material processes dominate the opinions, followed by relational, mental and verbal processes. The ideologies revealed in the opinions are power, pessimism, and criticism. Before the execution, pessimism dominates the opinions, while after the execution criticism appears most in the opinions.

The pragmatic equivalent method and the referential equivalent method are applied to analyze the data. The kinds of political metaphors include metaphors with nature as a parable, metaphors with plants as a parable, metaphors with terms from various fields, metaphors with common things as a parable, metaphors with particular verbs, and metaphors with particular adjectives. The readers could comprehend political metaphors well although their interest in political news is low. Apparently, the persuasive effect of political metaphors on the public is high. It becomes a trigger for people to take action to create a better political atmosphere.
ALTERNATIVE ASSESSMENTS FOR READING IN SENIOR HIGH SCHOOLS: A Guide for Classroom Practices
Authors: Wiyaka . , Prastikawati Entika Fani , Sodiq Jafar
Published: July 2017

One significant difference characterizing the 2013 Curriculum from the former one is the use of authentic assessment to measure the students expected learning outcomes. The old-fashioned mode of assessments such as multiple choice, or completion is regarded insufficient to capture the language skills mastery of the students. Students' demonstration of the mastery of various domains of learning objectives has not necessarily equated with a demonstration of their capacities in real-world settings. Ideally, what is tested should mirror what really is required outside the classroom. So far reading mastery is always tested through traditional mode of assessment like multiple choices (MC). The new curriculum recommends a different perspective of assessment which is called alternative assessment. However, the shift from the traditional assessments to authentic assessments seems to challenge some constraints on the part of the teachers. Many teachers are not quite familiar with the new concepts andpractices within the emerging paradigm. It is due to the absenceof a clear guideline for doing such assessments. The goal of this paper is to propose a theoretically grounded method to conduct alternative assessments which are developed from a pair of standard competences listedin theEnglish syllabus for Senior High School level
JEJARING KEBIJAKAN PENGANGKUTAN BATUBARA DI PROVINSI JAMBI DITINJAU DARI PERSPEKTIF GOOD GOVERNANCE
Authors: Subhan Ahmad
Published: July 2017

Di balik kontribusi finansial untuk daerah, ternyata batubara juga menimbulkan permasalahan yang kompleks di Provinsi Jambi, yaitu dari sisi pengangkutannya. Mobilisasi truk pengangkut yang melewati jalan umum telah menimbulkan kerusakan di sepanjang ruas jalan yang dilalui meskipun sudah ada Peraturan Daerah yang melarangnya.  Tulisan ini berusaha mengkaji masalah tersebut dari aspek kebijakan public, yaitu dengan menggunakan pendekatan jejaring kebijakan (policy network approach). Kajian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif dengan pendekatan kualitatif dengan mengandalkan data sekunder telah menemukan bahwa kompleksitas permasalahan pengangkutan batubara di Provinsi Jambi terlihat dari adanya pelanggaran Perda oleh pengusaha batubara sehingga masih merusak jalan umum, aksi demonstrasi sopir truk batubara, aksi protes blokir jalan oleh warga, dan upaya pengusaha untuk mengugat Perda. Sumber permasalahannya yaitu karena adanya perbedaan kepentingan antara pemerintah daerah dengan pelaku usaha batubara. Sopir batubara menjadi alat pelaku usaha untuk melakukan respon ketidakpatuhan terhadap kebijakan Pemda. Kunci penyelesaiannya yaitu penegakkan hukum dan dukungan kebijakan dari pemerintah kabupaten terhadap kebijakan pemerintah provinsi
PARTISIPASI MASYARAKAT DALAM PROSES KEBIJAKAN
Authors: Mariana Dede
Published: July 2017

Teori kebijakan era tahun 60-an lebih memandang proses kebijakan dari perspektif administrasi publik. Proses kebijakan dipandang linear dan mekanistik. Sementara, partisipasi masyarakat hanya dipandang sebagai formalitas bagi legitimasi kebijakan. Selama ini, partisipasi cenderung dimaknai secara kuantitatif (hanya dihitung dari jumlah partisipan atau jumlah organisasi masyarakat yang dilibatkan). Padahal, proses kebijakan akan jauh lebih bermakna sebagai proses demokrasi manakala partisipasi diperluas sebagai kesempatan bagi seluruh warga masyarakat untuk menyampaikan aspirasinya secara argumentatif. Artikel ini menjelaskan bagaimana pemberdayaan masyarakat dapat dilakukan untuk berpartisipasi dalam pembuatan kebijakan, yakni melalui pendekatan struktural dengan mengadvokasikan berbagai instrumen hukum dan kelembagaan yang memberi peluang bagi masyarakat untuk berpartisipasi dan pendekatan sosiokultural melalui proses pendidikan, pengorganisasian, dan pendampingan masyarakat

Published: July 2017

Fenomena kemapanan dalam sejarah sebagai wujud integrasi tidak terjadi begitu saja, namun biasanya dimulai dari  sebuah usaha yang disebut persepadudigabung (integrated) untuk menuju penubuhan yang dimaksudkan.  Integrasi sosial tidak pernah dapat dicapai dengan sempurnah, namun secara fundamental sistem sosial selalu cenderung bergerak ke arah equilibrium yang bersifat dinamis: menanggapi perubahan-perubahan yang datang dari luar dengan kecenderungan memelihara agar perubahan-perubahan yang terjadi di dalam sistem sebagai akibatnya hanya akan tercapai derajat yang minimal. Biasanya integrasi terealisasi dalam sejarah kedalam dua perkara yang berbeda, yaitu integrasi secara positif dan integrasi secara negatif.  Artikel ini akan mendedahkan integrasi secara positif yang terlihat dalam bentuk pemikiran politik—delapan Konsepsi Pembentukan Provinsi Sulawesi Tengah—elite tempatan di Sulawesi Tengah, Indonesia dalam proses terbentuknya Provinsi Sulawesi Tengah setelah mekar dari Provinsi Sulawesi Utara Tengah pada tahun 1964.  Demikian juga integrasi secara negatif biasanya tidak diharapkan oleh masyarakat kerana kecenderungannya ke arah konflik dan terbukti pada perjuangan dalam Gerakan Pemuda Sulawesi Tengah (GPST) dalam mengusir Permesta sejak tahun 1957 dari Sulawesi Tengah. Hujah utama kertas kerja ini adalah pemekaran bukan hanya terkonsepsi dari pusat kekuasaan tetapi juga menurut pemikiran-pemikran politik tempatan daripada peringkat daerah (history of below)

Eksploitasi seksual dan tenaga kerja yang terjadi pada perempuan dan anak malalui perdagangan manusia merupakan kejahatan kemanusiaan yang melanggar Hak Asasi Manusia. Cianjur merupakan Kabupaten peringkat ke tiga untuk jumlah korban perdagangan manusia di Jawa Barat, dengan peningkatan jumlah korban setiap tahunnya.Analisis kebijakan pemerintah tentang pencegahan dan penanganan tindak pidana perdagangan (trafficking) perempuan dan anak di Kabupaten Cianjur pada tahun 2011-2013, menjadi judul dari penelitian ini. Melalui analisis kebijakan, penelitian ini akan mendeskripsikan dan menganalisis terkait nilai, fakta dan tindakan dari kebijakan pemerintah.Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode deskriptif dengan pendekatan kualitatif. Pengumpulan data yang dilakukan melalui studi pustaka dan studi lapangan berupa observasi, wawancara dan dokumentasi. Sedangkan informan ditentukan secara purposive.Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Kabupaten Cianjur telah mengeluarkan beberapa kebijakan namun faktanya hingga saat ini permasalahan perdagangan manusia belum terselesaikan dengan baik. Salah satu faktor penyebabnya adalah lemahnya koordinasi dan kerjasama antar sesama anggota Gugus Tugas. Sehingga dibutuhkan beberapa tindakan seperti peningkatan kualitas pejabat publik; adanya evaluasi, adanya punishment (hukuman); perbaikan dalam perumusan program; dan pemilihan media sosial. Langkah awal untuk merealisasikan ini semua adalah dengan penguatan kelembagaan P2TP2A.
PARTISIPASI WARGA MASYARAKAT DALAM PENILAIAN KINERJA KECAMATAN DI KOTA BANDUNG
Authors: Sagita Novie Indrawati
Published: July 2017

Sistem Informasi Penilaian (SIP) Bandung Juara merupakan aplikasi berbasis teknologi informasi yang bertujuan memudahkan dalam evaluasi pencapaian kontrak kinerja kecamatan. SIP Bandung Juara ini pula sebagai wadah partisipasi publik dalam menilai kinerja layanan publik yang dilakukan kecamatan di Kota Bandung. Metode yang digunakan pada penelitian ini adalah metode kualitatif yang bersifat deskriptif dengan maksud memberikan gambaran mengenai pelaksanaan partisipasi masyarakat Kota Bandung dalam memantau dan mengevaluasi kinerja kecamatan. Partisipasi publik yang dibahas pada penelitian ini sebagaimana menurut Cohen dan Uphoff (1977) termasuk dalam jenis participation in evaluation yakni bentuk partisipasi masyarakat melalui keikutsertaan mengawasi kegiatan dan menilai kinerja pemerintah. Penelitian ini menghasilkan kesimpulan bahwa menurut penilaian masyarakat,  pencapaian kinerja kecamatan belum mencapai tujuan yang diharapkan, kualitas layanan yang kurang baik, dan rata-rata waktu pelayanan  yang dapat diselesaikan oleh kecamatan sebagian besar masih dalam rentang diatas 1 minggu hingga hitungan bulan. Namun sayangnya, partisipasi masyarakat Kota Bandung dalam mengevaluasi kinerja pemerintah kecamatan melalui aplikasi Sistem Informasi Penilaian (SIP) Bandung Juara tersebut masih terbilang rendah.  Sejak aplikasi SIP diluncurkan pertama kali pada tahun 2014, hanya beberapa orang saja yang bersedia mengisi penilaian di SIP Bandung Juara.  Minimnya partisipasi warga masyarakat Kota Bandung menunjukkan bahwa aplikasi SIP Bandung Juara belum sepenuhnya dimanfaatkan.     Oleh karena itu, Pemerintah Kota Bandung perlu meningkatkan intensitas sosialisasi aplikasi Sistem Informasi Penilaian (SIP) Bandung Juara. Sehingga, hasil evaluasi masyarakat dapat menunjukkan kualitas penilaian kinerja  kecamatan yang sesungguhnya.

Pemerintahan Kota Bandung pasca pergantian walikota pada tahun 2013 telah terjadi adanya reframing walaupun tidak disertai restructuring. Dalam hal revitalization dan renewal ada sedikit dilakukan namun tidak dibarengi dengan perubahan regulasi yang memadai contohnya tentang konsep Bandung Juara yang merupakan suatu renewal dalam menyemangati aparat untuk giat meraih prestasi dalam berbagai bidang sehingga menjadikan Bandung juara. Sebaiknya adanya transformasi manajemen pemerintahan ini dibarengi secara simultan dengan memberikan landasan hukum formal setingkat Peraturan Daerah dan didukung kekuatan politik di lembaga DPRD Kota Bandung. Hal inilah yang terungkap saat wawancara dengan pihak DPRD Kota Bandung yang menunggu pihak Pemerintah Kota in casu Walikota untuk merapat ke DPRD membicarakan langkah konkrit dalam mewujudkan reframing baru di Kota Bandung.
Dominación real o simbólica: nueva revisión de La Domination masculine
Authors: Yacine Tassadit
Published: July 2017

Este artículo hace una relectura de La Domination masculine de Pierre Bourdieu (1998) a partir del contexto en el que la obra fue elaborada. Así, nos apoyamos en los trabajos realizados en su etapa argelina en los años cincuenta (Sociologie de l’Algérie, 1958, Esquisse d’une théorie de la pratique, 1972 y Le Sens pratique, 1980) y, más tarde, en Francia (sociedad béarnesa y francesa, en general), a fin de mostrar que La Domination masculine no nació por generación espontánea, sino que es el resultado de una larga decantación enriquecida a través de las experiencias de campo y de los avances teóricos de los propios conceptos del autor. Si es verdad que la situación de las mujeres descritas en Sociologie de l’Algérie es resultado de una investigación empírica, lo es menos para La Domination masculine, cuyo análisis retoma los conceptos forjados por el antropólogo social, como el habitus y la dominación simbólica. De esta manera, este artículo propone una relectura de esta obra a través del análisis de los trabajos que le precedieron en el campo

La homonimia en la lexicografía española
Authors: Clavería Nadal Gloria , Planas Carmen
Published: July 2017

Cada diccionario puede trazar una frontera distinta entre homografía (dos o más entradas) y polisemia (una sola entrada) según los criterios teóricos y prácticos que aplique al establecerla lematización. Este es uno de los aspectos en que el lexicógrafo debe elegir al proyectar un diccionario y su decisión tiene unas implicaciones y una significación mucho más profundas de lo que podría parecer a primera vista, en tanto que refleja el marco teórico que subyace a la elaboración de la obra...
Avatares del verso alejandrino
Authors: Alatorre Antonio
Published: July 2017

Arturo Marasso dedica varias páginas de su estudio sobre el alejandrino a la cuestión de si este verso se formó amalgamando dos heptasílabos o si, por el contrario, el heptasílabo nació del desgajamiento del alejandrino en dos mitades. Dice que Nicolás Antonio veía el alejandrino como “endecha doble” (7 + 7 sílabas), que otro tanto sentía fray Martín Sarmiento, y que incluso para Bello el alejandrino “no era un verso simple”...
Horacio lírico y el "Tractatus de reliquiis preciosorum martirum Albini atque Rufini" o "Garcineida"
Authors: Higashi Alejandro
Published: July 2017

Con mucha razón apunta María Rosa Lida que en esto el autor anda a contrapelo de sus contemporáneos, “pues si la regla en la Edad Media es repetir hasta la saciedad unas pocas sentencias de Ovidio, Persio y Juvenal…García no encaja ninguna de estas manoseadas máximas y escoge en cambio versos muy concretos, sin posible meollo doctrinal, que implican lectura y goce atentos”...

La pronunciación del español: medios de difusión masiva y norma culta
Authors: Ávila Raúl
Published: July 2017

La descripción fonético-fonológica de las variantes del español en los países hispánicos se ha basado, por razones históricas, en la norma castellana. Esto ha conducido a análisis inconsistentes en la dimensión sincrónica. Por eso se propone un conjunto de diafonemas que permitan el análisis fónico de las variantes del español de manera no contradictoria. La investigación se basa en la pronunciación que se escucha por radio y televisión de difusión internacional. En esos medios se utilizan normas fonéticas que evitan en buena medida las pronunciaciones regionales. A partir de eso se describen las tres principales normas convergentes (a, b, g), y se señalan las divergencias más importantes. Por otra parte, se compara la pronunciación de esos medios con la de los hablantes cultos de las ciudades con mayor presencia en las producciones de televisión de alcance internacional.
Calderón de la Barca y las catástrofes de la historia: "Amar después de la muerte"
Authors: Checa Cremades Jorge
Published: July 2017

En Amar después de la muerte, Calderón dramatiza la rebelión de los moriscos de Granada (1568-1570) contra el proceso de aculturación de esta minoría intensificado durante la época de Felipe II. La cancelación del horizonte histórico para los moriscos se representa por medio de Álvaro Tuzaní, quien actualiza la figura del “moro sentimental” según aparece en Pérez de Hita y en El Abencerraje. Frente a esos modelos, el Tuzaní queda privado del acceso a valores públicos; su forzosa relegación a la esfera privada se asocia aquí a una visión catastrofista de la historia, cuya violencia —encarnada por don Juan de Austria—impide cualquier mediación entre vencedores y vencidos.

El episodio de doña Garoza a través de sus fábulas. ("Libro de buen amor", 1332-1507)
Authors: Morros Mestres Bienvenido
Published: July 2017

El presente artículo estudia el episodio de doña Garoza a partir de las fábulas esópicas que a lo largo de dos días intercambian la monja y la alchaueta, en una especie de dialéctica entre los dos tipos de amor que aparecen en el libro. Estudiando las diferentes versiones de esas fábulas, y los comentarios que las acompañan, llegamos a entender mucho mejor el episodio, y en especial su desenlace: una invitación al protagonista para alcanzar el buen amor de Dios y desechar el loco del mundo, el único que él había practicado hasta ese momento.
Poesía burlesca del Siglo de Oro y sus modelos italianos
Authors: Cacho Casal Rodrigo
Published: July 2017

En el Siglo de Oro conviven dos modalidades que tienen varios puntos en común: la poesía burlesca y la poesía satírica. Ambas deben varios aspectos a la literatura italiana, que desde el Renacimiento había forjado el moderno canon literario. Pese a los paralelismos entre las dos, la poesía burlesca se define por unos aspectos propios. Varios de ellos están en deuda con la tradición italiana, representada por el autor toscano Francesco Berni y sus imitadores. Sus obras circularon en antologías y debieron entrar pronto en la Península, contribuyendo a difundir y consolidar la poesía burlesca.

La variación diatópica en el uso del objeto indirecto duplicado
Authors: Flores Cervantes Marcela , Melis Chantal
Published: July 2017

Mostramos que la duplicación del OI en español se ha difundido en un grado menor en los dialectos afectados por el leísmo, laísmo y loísmo, que en los que mantienen las distinciones de caso en el área pronominal. Nuestros resultados confirman la hipótesis de que la expansión del OI duplicado intenta reestablecer, en el ámbito nominal, las distinciones de caso erosionadas por la difusión previa de a ante OD, una vez que la necesidad de recuperar estas distinciones se vincula, directamente, con la situación que prevalece en el área pronominal, donde es más intensa en dialectos conservadores que en dialectos innovadores.
