Introducing the “AI Language Models in Health Care” Section: Actionable Strategies for Targeted and Wide-Scale Deployment
Authors: Castonguay Alexandre , Lovis Christian
Published: December 2023

The realm of health care is on the cusp of a significant technological leap, courtesy of the advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) language models, but ensuring the ethical design, deployment, and use of these technologies is imperative to truly realize their potential in improving health care delivery and promoting human well-being and safety. Indeed, these models have demonstrated remarkable prowess in generating humanlike text, evidenced by a growing body of research and real-world applications. This capability paves the way for enhanced patient engagement, clinical decision support, and a plethora of other applications that were once considered beyond reach. However, the journey from potential to real-world application is laden with challenges ranging from ensuring reliability and transparency to navigating a complex regulatory landscape. There is still a need for comprehensive evaluation and rigorous validation to ensure that these models are reliable, transparent, and ethically sound. This editorial introduces the new section, titled “AI Language Models in Health Care.” This section seeks to create a platform for academics, practitioners, and innovators to share their insights, research findings, and real-world applications of AI language models in health care. The aim is to foster a community that is not only excited about the possibilities but also critically engaged with the ethical, practical, and regulatory challenges that lie ahead.

Authors: Esposito Giuseppina , Allarà Ciro , Randon Marco , Aiello Marco , Salvatore Marco , Aceto Giuseppe , Pescapè Antonio
Published: December 2023

BACKGROUND

Systems capable of automating and enhancing the management of research and clinical data represent a significant contribution of information and communication technologies to health care. A recent advancement is the development of imaging biobanks, which are now enabling the collection and storage of diagnostic images, clinical reports, and demographic data to allow researchers identify associations between lifestyle and genetic factors and imaging-derived phenotypes.

OBJECTIVE

The aim of this study was to design and evaluate the system performance of a network for an operating biobank of diagnostic images, the Bio Check Up Srl (BCU) Imaging Biobank, based on the Extensible Neuroimaging Archive Toolkit open-source platform.

METHODS

Three usage cases were designed focusing on evaluation of the memory and computing consumption during imaging collections upload and during interactions between two kinds of users (researchers and radiologists) who inspect chest computed tomography scans of a COVID-19 cohort. The experiments considered three network setups: (1) a local area network, (2) virtual private network, and (3) wide area network. The experimental setup recorded the activity of a human user interacting with the biobank system, which was continuously replayed multiple times. Several metrics were extracted from network traffic traces and server logs captured during the activity replay.

RESULTS

Regarding the diagnostic data transfer, two types of containers were considered: the Web and the Database containers. The Web appeared to be the more memory-hungry container with a higher computational load (average 2.7 GB of RAM) compared to that of the database. With respect to user access, both users demonstrated the same network performance level, although higher resource consumption was registered for two different actions: DOWNLOAD & LOGOUT (100%) for the researcher and OPEN VIEWER (20%-50%) for the radiologist.

CONCLUSIONS

This analysis shows that the current setup of BCU Imaging Biobank is well provisioned for satisfying the planned number of concurrent users. More importantly, this study further highlights and quantifies the resource demands of specific user actions, providing a guideline for planning, setting up, and using an image biobanking system.
Simulasi Numerik Pipa Penyalur Terkorosi Dengan Variasi Kedalaman dan Orientasi
Authors: Khusaini Ahmad , Nugroho Gesang
Published: December 2023

Penelitian terkait kekuatan sisa pipa penyalur  dengan cacat terkorosi merupakan proyek penting dalam industri pipa minyak dan gas. Hal tersebut  dipelajari selama bertahun-tahun, menggunakan beberapa metode eksperimental, numerik, analitik maupun secara empiris. Beberapa kriteria penilaian dengan code yang telah dikenal adalah ASME B31G, Modified ASME B31G, DNV RP 101, RSTRENG dan sebagainya. Namun, pendekatan empiris dari banyak data eksperimental sering menunjukkan bahwa metode analitikal dengan menggunakan code ini terlalu konservatif untuk mengevaluasi pipa dengan bahan baja grade tinggi dalam hal  kekuatan (strength). Pada penelitian ini dilakukan simulasi pengaruh korosi berbentuk kotak tunggal dengan variasi kedalaman dan orientasi cacat terkorosi  terhadap sisa kekuatan pipa penyalur dengan menggunakan perangkat lunak elemen hingga Abaqus. Variasi dilakukan pada rasio kedalaman (depth) terhadap ketebalan nominal 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70% dan 80%. Cacat  divariasikan pada arah longitudinal 300 mm x 200 mm x depth dan sirkumferensial  300 mm x 600 mm x depth. Pipa penyalur tersebut dipilih dari material API 5L X70 PSL 2. Simulasi dengan metode elemen hingga  dalam makalah ini untuk menentukan tekanan kegagalan pada pipa penyalur dengan cacat korosi eksternal dan internal berdasarkan kriteria kegagalan kekuatan von Mises. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tekanan kegagalan pipa penyalur yang terkorosi menurun jika nilai rasio d/t  naik untuk semua cacat baik internal maupun eksternal meskipun  nilai z  atau (L2/D.t)  konstan. Tekanan kegagalan lebih tinggi pada lokasi internal dibanding eksternal baik pada arah longitudinal maupun sirkumferensial meskipun secara kalkulasi analitikal dianggap sama. Deviasi yang terjadi maksimum 10.55% pada arah longitudinal dan 5.83% pada arah sirkumferensial. Pada rentang kedalaman (depth) 50% - 60% defect menunjukkan konvergensi antara data analitikal dan data hasil simulasi FEA. Pada design normal operating pressure 2,34 MPa (23,4 Bar) pipa penyalur masih relatif aman untuk  cacat sampai 80% dari ketebalan nominal, pada dimensi panjang cacat terkorosi 300 mm arah longitudinal.
Desain dan Analisis Kompresor Sentrifugal pada Jet Engine Menggunakan Metode CFD
Authors: Fathoni Burhanudin
Published: December 2023

Perkembangan dalam dunia penerbangan semakin pesat setiap tahunnya. Hal ini termasuk pada perkembangan pada Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). Salah satu perkembangan pada UAV yang dapat menjadi fokus dalam penelitian lebih lanjut adalah pada sistem propulsinya. UAV dapat menggunakan jet engine yang memiliki thrust-to-weight ratio yang lebih tinggi sehingga dapat menerbangkan UAV lebih efektif dengan dikembangkannya kompresor sentrifugal yang dipakai pada mesin jet berskala kecil, yang mana memiliki rasio kompresi lebih tinggi dengan hanya satu tingkat, sehingga menurunkan berat mesin keseluruhan. Penelitian ini diawali dengan mempelajari desain komponen kompresor sentrifugal satu tingkat, yakni impeller dan diffuser. Setelah itu, dibuat model 3D pada software permodelan 3D yang kemudian di-mesh­ pada software ANSYS. Model yang telah di-mesh ini kemudian disimulasikan pada software ANSYS CFX yang memiliki basis Computational Fluid Dynamics. Setelah itu, dilakukan validasi hasil simulasi dengan teori perhitungan sesuai rumus yang telah dipelajari. Metode simulasi yang telah valid dapat dilanjutkan untuk mengetahui efek membesarkan saluran outlet terhadap rasio tekanan, efisiensi, dan kecepatan outlet pada kompresor sentrifugal tersebut. Hasil yang telah didapatkan menunjukkan penurunan rasio tekanan, efisiensi jika melebihi besar outlet optimal, serta penurunan kecepatan outlet yang sebanding dengan besar outlet diffuser. Dari simulasi yang telah dilakukan didapatkan hasil terbaik pada outlet sebesar 1.25 kali inlet dengan rasio kompresi dan efisiensi tidak turun dengan kecepatan outlet yang lebih rendah.
Studi awal fenomena osilasi antarmuka air-udara pada pipa vertikal dan hubungannya dengan frekuensi osilasi dan level getaran

Published: December 2023

Fluida dapat digunakan untuk meneruskan energi mekanika namun dengan keterbatasan tertentu yang salah duanya adalah stabilitas dan tegangan permukaan fluida yang dipengaruhi oleh gaya tarik-menarik antar molekul. Dari proses transfer energi mekanika tersebut, studi awal untuk mengetahui pengaruh osilasi antarmuka air-udara akibat dari instabilitas antarmuka fluida pada pipa dilakukan. Pipa vertikal dan plunger diinstalasi secara aksial dengan permanent magnet exciter yang menerima input sinyal dari tone generator yang telah dikuatkan oleh power amplifier. Variasi amplitudo dan frekuensi osilasi dari exciter diinvestigasi untuk menjelaskan fenomena instabilitas antarmuka fluida, yang dapat terlihat secara visual, akibat dari level getaran amplitudo tertentu yang diukur dengan menggunakan accelerometer. Grafik antara input frekuensi osilasi dengan amplitudo getaran pada saat terjadi instabilitas antarmuka fluida dibuat dengan pengambilan data level amplitudo getaran dengan rentang frekuensi dari 6 – 50 Hz dengan variasi diameter dalam pipa 40mm dan 50mm serta variasi volume 10-50 mL. Hasil pengukuran pada pipa dengan diameter dalam 40mm maupun 50mm menunjukkan bahwa dari setiap frekuensi yang diuji memiliki level amplitudo getaran yang unik untuk memicu terjadinya fenomena instabilitas antarmuka. Secara umum, bertambahnya frekuensi menyebabkan level amplitudo getaran yang dibutuhkan hingga memicu instabilitas cenderung menurun. Level amplitudo getaran yang dibutuhkan juga menurun seiring bertambahnya volume pada diameter pipa yang sama. Pipa dengan diameter dalam yang lebih besar, dalam penelitian ini 50 mm, membutuhkan level getaran yang lebih tinggi untuk menyebabkan instabilitas antarmuka dibanding pipa dengan diameter dalam 40 mm.

Published: December 2023

This current investigation was conducted to study the flow field through Savonius hydrokinetic turbine with flat blade leading edge. The influences of blade thickness, overlap, and freestream velocity were simulated using ANSYS FLUENT with k-w SST model. The results show that the flow structure changes with increasing turbine rotation flow complexity is formed at a larger rotation angle. Both inward and outward overlap lead to a more complex pattern of the flow. The coefficient of torque and power for thin blades is higher than for thicker turbine blades and its values increase with the increase in the freestream velocity.

Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, An Young-Ju , Cho Han-Ik
Published: December 2023

Objectives The purpose of this study was to examine the mediating effects of rejection sensitivity and self-si-lence on the relationship between internalized shame and depression in high school students.
Methods The research subjects of this study are Korean high school students, and an online survey was con-ducted from June 20 to June 30, 2023, and a total of 350 surveys were collected, and all of the collected surveys were used for statistical analysis. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS 27.0 and Amos 23.0 programs.
Results The findings of the present study were as follows First, rejection sensitivity partially mediated the rela-tionship between internalized shame and depression. Second, self-silence partially mediated the relationship be-tween internalized shame and depression. Third, rejection sensitivity and self-silence sequentially mediated the relationship between internalized shame and depression. Based on these findings, we discuss the significance and limitations of this study and suggest research questions for future research.
Conclusions The conclusion of this study is that people with high internalized shame develop rejection sensitivity because they deny themselves and are sensitive to the evaluation of others, which leads to self-denial and self-silencing to avoid expressing opinions, which is associated with depression.
The Effects of Child Teachers' Emotional Competence on Teacher-Infant Interactions: The Mediating Effects of Happiness and Social Support
Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Heo Songyeon , Kim Jeonghee
Published: December 2023

Objectives The purpose of this study is to examine how child care teachers' emotional competence, happiness, and social support affect teacher-infant interactions and to test the effects of happiness and social support on the relationship between child care teachers' emotional competence and teacher-infant interactions.
Methods For this purpose, 625 childcare teachers working in daycare centers located in G-do were analyzed by distributing and collecting Google questionnaires through in-person visits and mail, and data processing was per-formed using SPSS 22.0 and AMOS 22.0 programs, and correlation analysis, Ducan's post hoc test analysis, and bootstrapping were performed to verify the mediating effects of happiness and social support.
Results First, the structural relationships between childcare teachers' emotional competence, happiness and so-cial support, and teacher-infant interaction were examined, and it was found that childcare teachers' emotional competence, happiness and social support are the main factors that directly affect teacher-infant interaction. Second, we found that teachers' happiness plays a mediating role in the process by which emotional competence affects teacher-infant interaction. This suggests that high quality teacher-infant interactions are more likely to be enhanced when they are supported by teachers' happiness. Third, child care workers' social support mediated the effect of emotional competence on teacher-infant interactions.
Conclusions We found that child care workers' emotional competence, happiness, and social support are im-portant variables that have a meaningful impact on teacher-infant interaction. In order to support high-quality teacher-infant interaction, it is necessary to recognize the importance of emotional competence with a proper understanding of the emotional competence of childcare teachers, which is crucial for the implementation of teacher-infant interaction, as theoretical training for childcare teachers is limited. Therefore, it is necessary to emphasize the importance of emotional competence, happiness, and social support in training programs for in-service teachers. Furthermore, future studies should develop programs to systematically cultivate the emo-tional competence, happiness, and social support of childcare teachers, and examine the establishment of effec-tive emotional competence, happiness, and social support support systems at the level of childcare institutions.
Trīs savienoti teoloģiski “lielumi”: radīšana, Jēzus, Svētais Gar
Authors:   Latvijas Universitāte, Līcīte Aira
Published: December 2023

he aim of this article is to offer a unifying element of the Christian narrative that connects creation, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. The study reveals that the traditional elements of the Christian narrative are not interconnected, specifically ignoring the role and function of the Holy Spirit. Traditionally, the Christian narrative has been constructed with a focus on sin and salvation. This Christocentric approach has significant limitations, namely, it does not provide a full and correct theological understanding of the Trinity and it does not give a logical connection between the beginning and the end of the Christian message, that is, between the creation, the coming of Christ and the giving of the Holy Spirit. This article offers a new perspective, where the holiness of God is used as an adequate unifying principle that connects creation, salvation and sanctification. The approach proposed in this article not only overcomes the traditionally Christomonic orientation, but also incorporates into the Christian narrative the history of the people of Israel, including the temple and the Sabbath – centre of their religious life, the life of Jesus, and the life of Jesus’ followers.
Spirituality and pre-spirituality in the created world
Authors:   University of Latvia, Tālberga Gunita , Fernāte Andra
Published: December 2023

Kopš 20. gadsimta beigām pieaudzis zinātnisko pētījumu skaits, kuros vērtēta garīguma un sporta mijietekme. Tomēr joprojām trūkst teoloģiski orientētu empīrisku pētījumu sporta izglītības teorētiskās bāzes attīstīšanai garīguma jautājumos. Rakstā analizēti Latvijas Sporta pedagoģijas akadēmijas studentu uzskati par garīgumu vispārīgi un tā izpausmēm dažādās sociālajās vidēs (ģimenē, augstākās izglītības iestādē un sportā), aprakstot kvalitatīvās pētniecības metožu “foto ierosa” (photo elicitation) un “matricas analīze” (template analysis) izmantošanu garīguma un pirmsgarīguma izpētē. Pētījums veikts konservatīvi evaņģēliskā paradigmā, un garīgums tiek skatīts bībeliskās teoloģijas gaismā kā cilvēka ikdienas izvēle uzticēties Jēzum Kristum, atsakoties no elkiem, lai sekotu Dieva Dēlam mīlestībā un Svētā Gara spēkā, briedinot Gara augli un godinot Debesu Tēvu savā dzīvē caur uzvaru pār grēku, ļaunajiem gariem un nāvi. Īpašības vārda pneumatikos lietojums Jaunajā Derībā skaidri parāda, ka garīgums ir neatraujami saistīts ar Svētā Gara darbību jaunradītajā cilvēkā un cilvēka vēlmi atsaukties Dieva darbam Jēzū Kristū. Mēs lietojam terminu “pirmsgarīgums”, lai iezīmētu cilvēka unikālo vietu radīto būtņu vidū un vienlaikus akcentētu stāvokli pirms piedzimšanas no Svētā Gara. Pirmsgarīgums ir ikviena cilvēka dzīvīgums, kuru nodrošina Radītāja Jahves dzīvības dvaša ķermenī un Radītāja tēls (imago Dei) katra cilvēka būtībā, kas dāvā dziļas iekšējas zināšanas par Radītāju un rosina reaģēt uz alkām pēc tuvības ar Viņu par spīti mūsu grēkā kritušajai dabai. Respondentu uzskatu izpētē izmantojot matricas analīzi, nav nosakāms, vai cilvēks ir piedzimis no Svētā Gara, tomēr ir iespējams izdarīt secinājumus par pētāmās sabiedrības komunikācijas veidu un uzskatiem par garīgumu. Izanalizējot divdesmit studējošo brīvprātīgi iesniegtās astoņdesmit fotogrāfijas un to aprakstus, tika konstatēts, ka visi pētījuma dalībnieki pauduši skatījumu, kas atbilst pirmsgarīguma būtībai, nevis Bībelē balstītai izpratnei par garīgumu. Izpēti nepieciešams turpināt, veidojot reprezentatīvu izlasi no sportā iesaistītiem kristiešiem, lai pilnīgāk izvērtētu izmantoto pētniecības metožu priekšrocības un trūkumus.
Changes in the labor market with the introduction of scientific and technological innovations into the economy (foreign and domestic experience)
Authors: Erokhin V. V.
Published: December 2023

The article presents the impact of scientific and technological innovations on the industrial structure of the tradable sector of the economy. The analysis of economic data was carried out on the basis of the VAR model by Christopher Albert Sims for 15 developed countries with open economies and without a sanction’s regime, including the Russian Federation, for the period 1995…2013. Research has shown that the greater the continuous growth of total factor productivity (TFP) in the tradable sector of the economy compared to growth in the non-tradable sector, the more labor resources move from the tradable sector to the non-tradable sector of the economy, which has a stimulating effect on the share of labor income in both sectors of the economy. A model of the influence of scientific and technological innovations on the labor market in the tradable sector of the economy has been developed. The model allows for a state with an open economy and taking into account cross-country dispersion of redistribution effects to calculate factor technological changes. The model predicts the most accurate results for states where capital-intensive industries make a greater contribution to the increase in total factor productivity of the trade sector of the economy, i. e. for states in which capital increases in relation to labor efficiency.
National Center of Physics and Mathematics – a new form of organization of science
Authors: Baydarov D. Yu. , Faikov D. Yu.
Published: December 2023

The article deals with the problem of activating fundamental scientific activity in the Russian Federation by combining the efforts of various scientific institutes – institutions of the Academy of Sciences, universities, industry and corporate science within the framework of the National Center for Physics and Mathematics (NCPM). The purpose of the article is to identify institutional features and substantiate promising organizational tasks of the NCFM, the main research methods are institutional, normative, comparative analysis. Institutionally, the NCPM will make it possible to get away from the existing division of science along departmental lines and related problems. It is proved that the use of the organizational “CERN model” in the NCPM will be able to attract a wide range of scientists from various Russian and, in the future, foreign organizations, will help the formation of a collaboration for conducting experiments and research at scientific installations of the “megasience” class. This will make it possible to form and work out a national model of the mobility of scientists. The territorial and personnel aspects of the NCFM are considered, measures are proposed to expand the types of activities, to activate the influx of students and postgraduates for subsequent work in scientific and knowledge-intensive industrial organizations, to reflect the peculiarities of the development of the territory of the NCFM location in strategic documents of various levels. Conclusions are drawn about the positive impact of the activities of the NCPM on socio-economic processes; about new opportunities for diversification of the military-industrial complex associated with the development of fundamental science; about accelerating the formation of a system of technological transfer; contributing to the organization of the system of strategic planning and scientific and technical forecasting in the country

“Le traictié d’une vision faite contre Le Ronmant de la Rose” of Jean Gerson: Debates in a dream and in reality
Authors: Togoeva O. I.
Published: December 2023

The article analyzes the treatise of Jean Gerson, the outstanding French theologian of the 15thcentury and Chancellor of the University of Paris, “Le traictié d’une vision faite contre Le Ronmant de la Rose”, written on May 18, 1402. This work was created in the midst of the so-called dispute about the Roman de la Rose, in which prominent intellectuals of the early 15thcentury, the first French humanists — Christine de Pizan, Jean de Montreuil, the brothers Gontier and Pierre Col — took part. The treatise is an account of a vision in which Jean Gerson was allegedly present at the trial brought against Jean de Meng, the author of the second part of the Roman de la Rose, which is strikingly misogynistic. The article analyzes in detail the literary techniques used in this work, the genre of the treatise, and also raises the question of why Gerson needed to transfer the real literary debates that were going on between supporters and opponents of the Roman de la Rose into a fictional reality and give them the character of judicial debates. The author concludes that Jean Gerson’s treatise may have been based on the idea of dreams as Divine revelations, as omens of future — and quite real — events. Thus, the verdict regarding the Roman de la Rose and its author, Jean de Meng, was to be pronounced not in a dream, but in reality, and not by a fictional character, but by the chancellor of the University of Paris himself.
From European war to Church union: Ivan the Terrible, Stephen Báthory, and Antonio Possevino
Authors: Erusalimskii K. Yu.
Published: December 2023

The epistolary polemic between Stephen Báthory and Ivan the Terrible unfolded in 1576–1578 and reached its climax in 1579–1581. It ended through the mediation of the Holy See. The Jesuit Antonio Possevino’s mission to the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and Russia left a lasting imprint on diplomatic correspondence and negotiations, opening new perspectives for both parties as well as for the Holy See against the background of plans for a union of Churches and for confronting the Reformation and the Turkish threat to Christian states. The article clarifies the conclusions of previous studies on the course of the negotiations and shifts the emphasis from the projects of the Roman See to a multilateral lens. This allows us to reconsider the positions of the three main participants, which changed during the peacemaking mission. The main attention is paid to Ivan the Terrible’s letter to the Polish king of June 29, 1581, Stephen Báthory’s reply of August 2, 1581, prepared with the assistance of the Crown and the Lithuanian chanceries, and Ivan the Terrible’s ‘speeches’ (posolskiie rechi) delivered in Staritsa on September 12, 1581. These extensive ‘speeches’ concluded the “hot” epistolary and oral phase of Ivan the Terrible’s war with Stephen Báthory, but they were merely an opening for Antonio Possevino’s efforts to realize the Holy See’s aims.
Vladimir Korolenko and the Orthodox tradition
Authors: Korshunkov V. A.
Published: December 2023

In the summer of 1879 Vladimir Korolenko was sent to the east across the Russian North regions to Vyatka province, into exile. He noted in his diary that on the border of the Kostroma and Vyatka provinces (in the village of Dyukovo, present-day Kostroma oblast) people cheerfully and noisily celebrated a certain holiday. According to Korolenko that day was All Saints’ Sunday and the eve of St. Philip’s (Christmas) Fast. However, a calculation of the chronology shows that it was in fact the beginning of St. Peter’s Fast, not St. Philip’s. It turns out that Korolenko made a mistake in counting the weeks after Easter and mixed up two of the four annual Orthodox fasts, calling the summer fast the winter one. Such a strange oversight is a sign of the young writer’s detachment from folk daily life and Orthodox tradition. For this reason, the paper deals with the question of Korolenko’s religiosity, as well as the time and degree of his familiarization with the traditions and everyday life of the Russian people. The evidence of Korolenko’s mindset during some periods of his life, including autobiographical evidence from his book The History of My Contemporary, is considered. We conclude that apparently even Korolenko’s childish religiosity was not overly simple or oriented towards rituals. Subsequently, in his youth, he developed a kind of a non-church religiosity, for which the calendar and other formalities did not matter.

“Composure” and “wild fury”: Religious debates in the 17th-century English Catholic community
Authors: Seregina A. Yu.
Published: December 2023

Early Modern European culture abounded in various forms of public controversies. These included university debates, literary dialogues, printed polemical works, etc. The Reformation and the resulting confessional conflicts added numerous religious disputations. Religious disputations were closely linked to conversions to the ‘true faith’ and could be addressed to either national audiences or to relatively small groups. How were these ‘private disputations’ perceived and described by those who witnessed such events? In the 16th–17thcenturies the European audience was well versed in the arguments of both Catholic and Protestant theologians. What, then, could be considered a victory when almost every argument of the disputants was predictable? The article presents an analysis of a disputation narrative — the story of the debates between an Anglican divine, William Chillingworth, and a Jesuit, Thomas Holland, which were held in 1634 at the house of Elizabeth Cary, Viscountess Falkland. The disputation was organized to help persuade the daughters of Lady Falkland, newly converted Catholics and future nuns Anne, Lucy, Elizabeth and Mary Cary, who experienced a religious crisis. The disputation narrative was part of the biography of Lady Falkland written by her daughters. The story was closely connected to the narrative of the conversion of the mother and the daughters to Catholicism. The process was presented as an “intellectual conversion” through rational arguments. However, the story of the disputation focuses not on the arguments but on the behavior of all the participants, and on their emotions. This is a reflection of the views of the 17th-century polemicists regarding the role of emotions and pas[1]sions in the process of religious conversion and the search for truth.
The phenomenon of autohagiography: On the question of the replacement of subjectivity in Christian mysticism
Authors: Reutin M. Yu.
Published: December 2023

The article attempts to comprehend the phenomenon of religious consciousness. The aim is to describe, as an immanent experience, psychotechnics (work on oneself) — that which understands itself and describes itself in its own language with the help of metaphysical concepts. The introduction considers the so-called “Eulogy” of Moscow priest Alexei Mechev, previously analyzed by P. A. Florensky and V. N. Toporov. What is incomprehensible and intriguing about the “Eulogy” is that it is composed to himself and by himself in the most commendable way (and by no means in a humble tone, as one would expect) and essentially is a glorification of oneself as a saint. In parts I and II of the article, the same phenomenon is examined on the basis of works of 14thcentury German mystics: the autobiography “Vita” by the Constance mystic Heinrich Suso (1295/1297–1366) and the diary notes of the Zurich visionary Elsbeth von Oye (d. 1341/1342), which have survived in the original. In both the first and the second case, attention is paid to the phenomenon of double voicing, when statements endowed with performative power and devoid of any doubt about their complete, unconditional rightness are adjacent to the most derogatory and humble self-assessments. This is what the replacement of subjectivity looks like: as the human subjectivity of the charismatic is eliminated, the subjectivity of God, the divine “spark” unfolds in him: the emanation of God that is in him, which. however, is of another nature than the charismatic, in relation to which the charismatic himself acts as an instrument. Setting itself no limits, the imperative and categorical discovery of a “spark” in a humble charismatic corresponds to the glorification of oneself in Father A. Mechev’s “Eulogy”, which is emphasized in the Conclusion and explicated in several findings.
Keinginan Dan Pantang Larang Watak Imam Hamad Dalam Novel Srengenge Dari Perspektif Lacan Imam Hamad's Desire And Taboo In The Novel Srengenge From Lacan's Perspective
Authors: Yoon Choi Se , Mohd Ali Tengku Intan Marlina Tengku , Hashim Nurhamizah
Published: December 2023

Kajian yang bertajuk “Keinginan dan Pantang Larang Watak Imam Hamad dalam Novel Srengenge dari Perspektif Lacan” ini dihasilkan untuk mengkaji kesusasteraan Melayu berdasarkan Teori Psikoanalisis Jacques Lacan. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis keinginan watak Imam Hamad dalam novel Srengenge (1973) menggunakan Teori Psikoanalisis Lacan. Pada akhirnya, semua analisis kajian ini akan membuktikan dua cadangan terkenal Lacan, iaitu cadangan pertamanya ialah "Ketidaksedaran adalah wacana yang Lain." dan cadangan keduanya pula ialah "Keinginan manusia adalah keinginan yang Lain.” Menurut Lacan, keinginan manusia berasal dari yang Lain, dan ketidaksedaran manusia terbentuk di bawah pengaruh yang Lain. Tiga peringkat keinginan yang ingin dianalisis dalam kajian ini, iaitu asal-usul keinginan, kebangkitan keinginan, dan hasil keinginan, akan menjadi proses melihat sifat keinginan watak terpilih. Selain itu, kajian ini memfokuskan pada analisis keinginan Imam Hamad dari perspektif Teori Psikoanalisis Lacan dengan merujuk kepada kajian Freud mengenai pantang larang. Oleh itu, kajian ini akan menyatakan tafsiran baru analisis keinginan berbeza daripada kajian lepas. Melalui analisis keinginan watak Imam Hamad ini, cadangan pertama Lacan terbukti bahawa ketidaksedaran watak tercipta bawah pengaruh wacana yang Lain. Selain itu, cadangan kedua Lacan telah terbukti bahawa keinginan watak yang terpilih dicipta oleh menginginkan keinginan yang Lain. Hasilnya, novel Srengenge ini menunjukkan bahawa dunia minda manusia tidak pernah terlepas daripada kekuatan graviti pantang larang dan animisme yang menjadi asas agama primitif. Kajian ini merupakan kajian pertama dalam kesusasteraan Melayu yang menggunakan Teori Lacan. Melalui kajian ini, diharapkan agar hasil kajian ini dapat digunakan dan dimanfaatkan oleh pengkaji-pengkaji yang akan datang yang berminat untuk mengkaji karya-karya sastera Melayu menggunakan Teori Lacan.
Enfant Terrible of Ukrainian Emigration (Igor Kostecki. On the Way to the National Model of Modernism)
Authors:   A.M. Gorky Institute of World Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Barabash Yuri Ya.
Published: December 2023

The article is devoted to the fate and work of the Ukrainian émigré writer, prose writer, playwright, literary and theater historian, essayist, publisher, translator Igor Kostetsky. Kostecki’s writings (stories, story “Saint’s Day,” plays) are considered: (a) in the hermeneutic, comparative, historical and literary aspects and (b) in the all-Ukrainian and European literary contexts. Thus, a hermeneutic analysis of three plays written in 1945–1947 reveals both structural and semantic differences between them and features of typological similarity. In the play “The Temptation of the Unholy Anton,” the absurd beginning is noted as a meaningforming factor, which gives grounds for comparing the play with the European “drama of the absurd” (A. Adamov, S. Beckett, E. Ionesco). In the plays “The Twins Will Meet Again” and “Action about a Great Man” other tendencies dominate (in the presence of a number of absurdist features): sociopsychological (the theme of duality, mythological archetypes), ideological and moral (discussions about the “legality” of terror for the sake of a lofty goal), philosophical-religious (irrational nature of the Power, its mysterial component, zombified mass consciousness). The typological similarity of the analyzed works is based on the paradigm of modernism common to them, the totality of principles and forms of modernist poetics — the violation of cause-and-effect relationships, temporal and spatial shifts, the method of transforming archetypal images and sacred prefigurations, elements of medieval and baroque stylizations, intertextuality, etc. These features are clearly manifested in a comparative approach to the plays of Kostecki and thematically comparable samples (G. Flaubert’s interpretation of the legend of St. Anthony, the theme of duality in Gogol and Shevchenko, Dostoevsky and Andrei Bely, the mystical beginning in G. Lorca and T.S. Eliot). In historical, literary and theoretical terms, the plays, as well as the main prose works, by I. Kostetsky, his creative heritage as a whole, represent a link between Ukrainian modernism of the 20s. (“The Executed Renaissance”) and modernist, as well as postmodernist trends in modern Ukrainian literature, mark a significant stage on the way to the formation of a national model of modernism.
Sensory Reactivity as a Property of Michail Shishkin's Poetics
Authors:   Lomonosov Moscow State University, Ledenev Alexander V.
Published: December 2023

The article is aimed at identifying “sensory reactivity” in the poetics of Mikhail Shishkin. The object of the study were the novels “The Capture of Ishmael,” “Venus Volos,” “Letter Book,” the stories “Calligraphy Lessons,” “Nabokov’s Inkblot.” The “building material” of the writer’s images are individual sensory perceived attributes — lines, colors (color painting), sounds, tactile and tactile details. The text is made up of multi-colored threads (not only visual, but also acoustic, “taste,” etc.), so that not “characters” interact on the surface of the narrative, but words, colors and sounds, from which gradually — like figures on canvases Impressionists — “images of consciousness” grow and “reliefs of the soul” appear. The most important attribute of Shishkin’s individual style, the sense-modulating component of his prose, are the intensively used details of the character’s sensory reactions. At the same time, visual sensory resources closely interact with acoustic and tactile ones, giving rise to synesthetic sensations (sound coloring or interference of the visible and tactile aspects of perception).
Intelligentsia in a Critical Era: General and Special in the Prose of the Young Generation of Russian and Chinese Post-Revolutionary Emigration
Authors:   Moscow Pedagogical State University, Meng Wei Tang
Published: December 2023

The article deals with the problems of the national intelligentsia in Russia and Taiwan (more broadly — in China), the historical prerequisites for the emergence of a “divided people” and two streams of national literatures — Russian and Chinese. The main objects of comparative analysis were the prose works of the Taiwanese (Chinese) writer Bai Xianyong (mainly the collection of short stories “The Taipei People”) and G. Gazdanov (the novel “Tvening at Claire’s”). The author shows that Taiwanese literature is an original branch of Chinese literature, writes about the combination of Chinese classical tradition and Western modernist experience, which is reflected in the work of Bai Xianyong. At the same time, the writer managed to preserve the national cultural codes, did not advocate their destruction and oblivion.
The Voices of the “Paris Note”: Lydia Chervinskaya and Anatolyi Shteiger
Authors:   A.M. Gorky Institute of World Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Chagin Alexei I.
Published: December 2023

The article is devoted to one of the most significant phenomena of the Russian émigré poetry — the “Paris note”, which mainly defined the poetical atmosphere of the 1920–1930s at the space of Russian exile. The figures of two poets who have became the symbols of the “Paris note,” L. Chervinskaya and A. Shteiger, are at the centre of the work. It was obvious in the poems by L. Chervinskaya (in her poetical books “Priblizheniya” (1934), “Rassvety” (1937) and “Dvenadtsat’ mesyatsev” (1956)) the distinctive feature of the “note” — the intonation of a diary, which was exaggerated with the structure of the verse itself — syntactical repeats, a ragged, unsaid phrase. The confessions at the pages of the lyric diary were addressed to fleeting, delicate movements of the soul. An aesthetics of a diary is obvious at the poetical works by A. Shteiger (in his books “This Day” (1928), “This Life” (1932) and “Neblagodarnost’ — “Ingratitude” (1936)) with their aphoristic character of the poetical speech, rejection of big words, orientation to the tradition of the “Gumiliev’ school” (I. Annenskyi, G. Ivanov, A. Akhmatova).

Variación anual de los recursos fitogenéticos comercializados en un mercado local del municipio de Quibdó, pacífico colombiano
Authors: Mena Marmolejo Alicia , Moreno Mosquera Eyda Annier , Largacha Viveros Sheila
Published: December 2023

Contextualización: Los recursos fitogenéticos, constituyen la base de la seguridad alimentaria del mundo, por ello la necesidad de ahondar en su conocimiento y proponer estrategias para su conservación.

Vacío de conocimiento: las plazas de mercado funcionan como centro de acopio de la diversidad biológica productiva de las regiones, sin embargo, estos escenarios están centralizados y dicha diversidad tiende a erosionarse por procesos de aculturización.

Propósito: El objetivo de este estudio fue conocer la variación anual de los recursos fitogenéticos agrícolas, comercializados en una plaza de mercado del Pacifico colombiano, para propender por su uso y valoración.

Metodología: Durante un año cada quince días, se recorrió la plaza de mercado de Quibdó, donde se reconocieron los recursos fitogenéticos agrícolas comercializados. Una vez en la plaza, se realizaron recorridos entre las 8:30 a.m. y 11:00 h considerando la cantidad de puestos activos en el momento de aplicación del cuestionario. La determinación taxonómica de cada especie y sus datos de origen se realizó con la ayuda de bases electrónicas y consulta online en herbarios. Mientras que la práctica de cultivo se determinó considerando los datos reportados para el departamento del Chocó en la encuesta nacional agropecuaria-ENA.

Resultados y conclusiones: Se identificaron 47 especies, 35 géneros y 29 familias, de orígenes diversos, periodicidad y tipos de cultivo. No todos los recursos fitogenéticos comercializados en la plaza de mercado presentan disponibilidad anual. Los meses con mayor diversidad de especies fueron diciembre (S=39), enero (S=38), febrero y marzo (S=37). La falta de planificación agrícola en el municipio hace que la variación de los recursos fitogenéticos amenace su persistencia, esto ocurre con especies con poca disponibilidad y desconocidas por las nuevas generaciones, siendo ésta también una causa de erosión o pérdida de los recursos fitogenéticos en la región.
Evaluación del rendimiento de filete y composición de cachama blanca (Piaractus brachypomus)
Authors: Mancera Rodriguez Liliana Patricia
Published: December 2023

Contextualización: La cachama blanca es una especie nativa, la cual tiene propiedades y características atractivas tanto para el productor como el consumidor. Actualmente, los principales estudios se enfocan hacia la reproducción en cautiverio, formas de alimentación, mejora genética y manejo.
Vacío de conocimiento: La información acerca del rendimiento en filete y canal es escaza e imposibilita una planeación estratégica en el momento de la siembra, así como la diversificación del producto y la insuficiente información acerca del manejo de los residuos de esta especie.
Propósito: El objetivo de esta investigación fue evaluar si existían diferencias significativas en el rendimiento del filete y la composición fisicoquímica al comparar dos tallas de comercialización de cachama blanca, que se distribuyen en los principales centros de acopio del país.
Metodología: Se estimaron los rendimientos corporales tomando como muestra 92 animales, los cuales fueron beneficiados, eviscerados y clasificados en dos grupos dependiendo su peso.  Luego fueron descamados y se retiraron las aletas, colas, cabeza y piel. Posteriormente, se evaluaron características fisicoquímicas (análisis proximal y grado de oxidación por medio de análisis de bases nitrogenadas volátiles) y se revisaron las investigaciones relacionadas con el aprovechamiento y uso de residuos.
Resultados y conclusiones: Los animales que se encontraban en el rango de peso de 406 g a 600 g presentaron un rendimiento en filete del 51% y en canal del 74%. Asimismo, se encontraron diferencias significativas en el contenido de lípidos, las demás variables presentaron el mismo comportamiento entre los grupos. Finalmente se evidencia que la especie presenta limitadas investigaciones acerca del uso de residuos para preparación de ensilados, hidrolizados y harinas.
