Os sentidos de luta e a “ressurgência cultural” entre os Krenak
Authors: Pascoal Walison Vasconcelos
Published: July 2019

A experiência histórica do povo Krenak é marcada pela resistência aos diversos tipos de violência estatal que sofreram. Em suas narrativas a palavra luta é recorrente, e está relacionada a este processo de resistência. O texto investiga os diferentes sentidos que luta tem para os Krenak, e dá destaque ao tipo de luta que, ancorada em uma consciência histórica, orienta-se como projeto de futuro focado em aspectos propriamente culturais, como a língua e a religião, processo que alguns Krenak vem chamando de “ressurgência cultural”. A descrição deste processo será feita a partir de dados históricos e etnográficos levantados no âmbito de uma pesquisa colaborativa em curso para o registro dos conhecimentos associados à estátua sagrada dos Krenak.
Kvantumfizika és jog – Mire tanít a környezetvédelmi szabályozás kudarca?
Authors: Bányai Orsolya
Published: July 2019

Sokunk tisztában van azzal, hogy a természeti környezetért tett legkülönfélébb szintű (egyéni, nemzetközi) erőfeszítések dacára Földünk ökológiai állapota rendkívül aggasztó. Elég csak a klímaváltozásra vagy a biodiverzitás drámai csökkenésére gondolni. Azt már talán kevesebben tudjuk – vagy idáig nem is mertünk belegondolni –, hogy ez a helyzet a jelenlegi forgatókönyv mellett, a természettudományos előrejelzések alapján javulni nem fog, csak romlani. Ennélfogva egy elkerülhetetlen civilizációs hanyatlás, még rosszabb esetben összeomlás előtt állunk. Hogyan jutottunk ide? Mi az oka ennek a kétségbeejtő helyzetnek? Van-e egyáltalán remény társadalmi szinten, és ha van, min alapulhat?

Jelen tanulmányban e mára sokak számára szinte láthatatlanná vált törvények kitapogatására vállalkozom. Mindezt különböző tudományterületek szakirodalomban publikált eredményeinek feltárásával, szintézisével végzem interdiszciplináris megközelítéssel. Ennek során a környezetjog keretei között kezdem, majd különböző természettudományok területén folytatom a gondolatmenetet, végül a jogtudomány határai mögé térek vissza, de egy, a kiindulóponthoz képest magasabb szintre. A téma jellegére tekintettel és a természettudományos eredmények megerősítése érdekében több helyen idézek a Bibliából, illetve a Bhagavad-gítából.Fontosnak tartom ugyanis, hogy híd épüljön tudomány és vallás közé, annak érdekében, hogy gyógyulhasson az a seb, amelyet e két terület között évszázadokig tátongó szakadék okozott.
A német büntető törvénykönyv időbeli hatálya a joggyakorlatban
Authors: Stál József
Published: July 2019

Az időbeli hatály Németország Büntető Törvénykönyvének (StGB) alkalmazása során is sok esetben okoz komoly fejtörést a jogalkalmazónak. A német Btk. tekintélyes kora az állandóságára enged következtetni, azonban számtalan módosítása miatt mindig is jelentős problémát jelentett – és jelent ma is – annak megítélése, hogy az adott tényállásra vonatkozó több, eltérő tartalmú rendelkezés közül melyik is a terheltre kedvezőbb. A legenyhébb törvény alkalmazása az elkövető előnyben részesítését jelenti, amit Németországban a jogállamiság részének, az arányos igazságosság megjelenésének, szinte alkotmányos szabálynak tartanak. A tanulmány ezt a problematikát mutatja be akként, hogy a vonatkozó jogszabályi rendelkezések mellett a bíróságok jogalkalmazási gyakorlatát is igyekszik megvilágítani. Ezen túlmenően érinti a kapcsolódó jogirodalmi álláspontokat, kitér a német szabálysértési jogra, valamint röviden összehasonlítja a német és a magyar szabályozást és joggyakorlatot.

Published: July 2019

Bahasa Jepang mempunyai beberapa sistem aksara yang digunakan. Salah satunya adalah aksara Katakana, yang digunakan untuk menuliskan istilah bahasa Asing ke dalam bahasa Jepang. Aksara ini mempunyai beberapa bentuk yang harus dipelajari oleh seseorang yang sedang mempelajari bahasa Jepang. Hal ini menyebabkan tingkat kesulitan dalam mempelajari bahasa Jepang semakin tinggi. Maka, dibuatlah sebuah aplikasi yang akan membantu penggunanya mengidentifikasi aksara Katakana. Aplikasi ini dikembangkan dalam platform desktop dan menggunakan salah satu cabang ilmu dalam Kecerdasan Buatan, yaitu Jaringan Syaraf Tiruan (Artificial Neural Network). Jaringan syaraf tiruan yang diimplementasikan dalam aplikasi tersebut menggunakan model algoritma pembelajaran Back Propagation. Jaringan syaraf tiruan tersebut dibuat dan dilatih untuk mengidentifikasi tiga jenis aksara Katakana, yaitu aksara gojūon, dakuon, dan handakuon. Beberapa parameter pembelajaran diterapkan dan beberapa proses pembelajaran dilakukan pada penelitian ini. Pembelajaran jaringan syaraf tiruan yang telah dilakukan menghasilkan tingkat akurasi jaringan syaraf tiruan dalam mengidentifikasi aksara-aksara tersebut. Tingkat akurasi tersebut adalah: 44,06% untuk aksara gojūon; 48,75% untuk aksara dakuon; dan 82,5% untuk aksara handakuon.

Authors: Ba Amadou Diadie , Lo Gane Samb
Published: July 2019

In this paper we provide the asymptotic theory of the general of Ï†-divergences measures, which include the most common divergence measures : RÂ´enyi and Tsallis families and the Kullback-Leibler measure. We are interested in divergence measures in the discrete case. One sided and two-sided statistical tests are derived as well as symmetrized estimators. Almost sure rates of convergence and asymptotic normality theorem are obtained in the general case, and next particularized for the RÂ´enyi and Tsallis families and for the Kullback-Leibler measure as well. Our theoretical results are validated by simulations.
Strategic Asset Allocation for Life Insurers with Stochastic Liability
Authors: Atkinson Colin , Mokkhavesa Sutee , Ingpochai Pongsathorn
Published: July 2019

The problem of strategic asset allocation and product mix choice of a life insurancecompany is considered where account is taken of the stochastic risk associated with both assets and liabilities. Using the methods of stochastic dynamic programming we derive equations for optimal weights of both risky and riskless assets under continuous time. The resulting equations can be solved exactly for some parameter values and utility functions.Â When this is not possible a general perturbation expansion method is set up for which explicit solutions are derived for the first terms but the method can be generalized to any order in the expansion parameter.

Post-Discharge eLearning Platform for Cardiac Patients: Developing the Format of the Educational Units and Recording the Contents
Authors: Kirn Borut
Published: July 2019

Myocardial infarction patients face an increased risk of cardiovascular problems. This risk can be reduced by adjusting one’s lifestyle. However, once discharged from the hospital and faced with self-care at home the patient faces a loss of adequate information and diminishing motivation with time after infarction the event. There is a gap of two weeks between being released from the hospital and the patient having any chance of joining organised cardiac rehabilitation programmes, if these are organised by the health system at all. Unfortunately, by that time the highest motivation for lifestyle change has already been lost.

An eLearning platform has been put forward to bridge this period, however, the content needs to be carefully prepared to educate and motivate the patient and their family. By analysing how health information is acquired over the Internet today, and by applying social-cognitive learning and storytelling into educational videos we developed a format of an effective educational unit. In order to develop an essential set of educational units seven interviews were recorded with members of medical teams and five with patients who had coronary disease, of which two were with their partners who were their informal caregivers.

The format of the educational unit was designed as such that it can be viewed in 4-8 minutes and was composed of three videos featuring peer-patients and medical team members. The videos were accompanied by a short text of up to 50 words, illustrations or quiz questions. From the recorded video material 60 educational videos were edited and used to compose 20 educational units for patients with coronary disease. Legal issues regarding Rights of Publishing and General Data Protection Regulation issues were solved and backend data analytics was developed. Thus, the platform was prepared for next step which will be a large random clinical study.

Este artigo resulta das vivências e da produção do coletivo de Ativadores de Rede constituído a partir do projeto “Engrenagens de Educação Permanente” do Ministério da Saúde. Tem como objetivo colaborar com a qualificação de trabalhadores que atuam na RAPS, e, consequentemente, com a melhoria dos serviços. Possui implicação ético-pedagógica com a política de fortalecimento da Atenção Psicossocial e do SUS. Ao discorrer sobre o cuidado às pessoas que fazem uso de drogas, os autores privilegiam o desafio de sustentar a crise garantindo o cuidado em liberdade, assegurando coerência com esse princípio que é o pilar da Reforma Psiquiátrica e da Luta Antimanicomial. Nesse sentido, propõem avançar urgentemente no processo de compartilhamento do cuidado com a Atenção Básica com os demais componentes da RAPS e outros recursos existentes nos territórios. Há deslocamento da compreensão da crise para a sua dimensão psicossocial, questionando e problematizando a crença em pressupostos puramente psicológicos e/ou biológicos – individualizantes – que tradicionalmente circunscrevem a temática fora da perspectiva crítica em Saúde Mental. Busca radicalizar a participação dos usuários no próprio processo de cuidado e atenção à crise, apostando, inclusive, na possibilidade de educação entre os pares. Dessa forma, concluem que, para além das mudanças nos processos de trabalho, é fundamental a constituição de redes de cuidado com pactuações entre os sujeitos para que assim se escutem e se cuidem e, à luz da redução de danos, possam sustentar uma nova cultura do cuidado construída de forma coletiva.Palavras-chave: Atenção à crise. Uso de drogas. Redução de danos. Saúde mental.

O contexto atual, político e de saúde, especificamente da saúde mental, convoca os sujeitos a radicalizarem as suas práticas e repensarem o modo de produzir cuidado nos serviços e na sua inserção nos territórios. Esse texto traz a experiência das ativadoras de rede e da tutora da linha de cuidado infantojuvenil do módulo de Recife, do Projeto Engrenagens. Contextualiza todo o processo de construção dos Percursos Formativos e o projeto Ativador de Redes, demonstrando a importância da intersetorialidade para o cuidado em saúde mental infantojuvenil, além da necessidade de educação permanente das equipes dos Centro de Atenção Psicossocial da infância e adolescência (CAPS ia) , para que se reconheçam e exerçam o seu papel de ordenadores do cuidado em saúde mental no território. Enfatiza a importância da inclusão dos trabalhadores, mas, sobremaneira, a dos usuários e familiares nessas ações. Apresenta as dificuldades de ordem estrutural que se interpõem no processo de consolidação da atenção psicossocial, como precarização das relações de trabalho, vínculos fragilizados, sucateamento dos serviços e ausência de investimentos na formação dos trabalhadores. Discute o desafio de ativar redes em municípios com grande contingente populacional e grandes extensões territoriais, em que a pauta não se constitui como prioritária; aponta a necessidade de reorganização do processo de trabalho dos CAPS ia, para que os profissionais consigam realizar ações vivas e pulsantes nos territórios; e, por fim, apresenta algumas sugestões de ações coletivas, tais como formação de Comissão, Fóruns e Grupos de Trabalhos, como estratégias para ativar as redes de forma resolutiva.Palavras-chaves: Ativador de redes.

The Importance of Involving Stakeholders and Scientists in the Management of Marine Fisheries
Authors: Hawkins Anthony D.
Published: July 2019

In recent years there has been increasing concern over the state of fish stocks, especially those that support key fisheries and supply food to many consumers. There is also concern over the state of aquatic environments, and the effects of climate change. Fisheries management is controlled by government agencies, often cooperating with similar agencies from other nations. This paper deals with the need for expert advice on fisheries, involving fishers as well as scientists. Mention is made of a Fisheries Partnership set up in Europe, bringing fishers and scientists together with other stakeholders to discuss the problems of managing fish stocks. The partnership was especially successful in improving relationships between fishers and scientists, and made significant improvements to some fish stock assessments. European Regional Advisory Councils were later established to play a similar role. They are providing significant advice on fisheries, but they do not yet play a key role in actual management. It is important to consider how stakeholders and scientists can become more actively involved in fisheries management. There is a crucial need to develop new, more participatory ways of managing fisheries.

Bu çalışmada son yarım asırdır Malezya toplumunda, sosyo-ekonomik ve kültürel olarak büyük değişiklere öncülük eden İslamileşme hareketi incelenecektir. 19. yüzyıldan itibaren birçok İslam ülkesinde tartışılan İslamileşme düşüncesi en başarılı uygulama alanını şüphesiz Malezya’da bulmuştur. Malay dünyasında kökleri 7. yüzyıla dayanan İslam, Malezya toplumunda bir bütün olarak kurumsallaşması ancak bağımsızlık sonrasında başlayan davet ve tebliğ çalışmalarıyla olmuştur. Ülkede nüfusun yarısını oluşturan gayrimüslimlere rağmen Müslüman Malaylar yarım asır süren bir mücadele sonrasında toplumu dönüştürmeyi başarmıştır.1970’li yıllarda Ezher gibi İslami üniversitelerden mezun olan öğrencilerin başlatmış olduğu davet ve tebliğ çalışmaları ile başlayan kamusal alanın İslamileşmesi süreci 1980’li yıllarda eğitim alanında İslamileşmeyi getirmiştir. Liberal milliyetçi UMNO partisi ve PAS İslam partisinin öncülük ettiği sürece 1990’lı yıllarda İslamileşmenin, finans ve yargı dahil birçok alanda kurumsallaşmasını sağlamıştır. Bu çalışmada Malezya Müslümanlarının İslamileşme tarihi ve İslamileşmenin modern dönemde toplumsal dönüşüm üzerindeki etkisi incelenecektir. Ayrıca bu değişim sürecinin nedenleri ve bu değişime öncülük eden kişi ve kurumlar tartışılacaktır.

To Understand Is to Forgive: Learning a Simple Model of Appraisal Leads to Emotion Knowledge Transfer and Enhances Emotional Acceptance and Empathy
Authors: Lyashevsky Ilya , Cesarano Melissa , Black John
Published: July 2019

Social emotional learning (SEL) is an increasingly important area of study that aims to develop skills critical for healthy social functioning. Despite SEL’s growing ubiquity, little attention has been paid to how to achieve SEL knowledge transfer. One promising approach is to teach a model of the emotion system. A randomized control study was conducted with a sample of U.S. high school graduates (n = 303) to test this SEL methodology. The impact of a 1-hour online intervention involving learning a simple model of appraisal was tested. As predicted, the experimental groups rated their own and others’ emotional reactions as significantly less blameworthy than the control group did, signaling emotion knowledge transfer and greater empathy and emotion acceptance. These results are discussed.

Psychology of Religion Approaches to the Study of Religious Experience
Authors: Taves Ann
Published: July 2019

Religious experience played a prominent role in the psychological study of religion in the early decades of the twentieth-century, then waned as behaviorist and quantitative approaches became more prominent, and reemerged in the second half of the twentieth century alongside, and largely distinct from, mystical experience and, more recently, spirituality. Compared to the past, current research places less stress on sudden subjective experiences and more on ordinary (spiritual) experiences and gradual (spiritual) transformations that can take place in the context of practices or everyday life (struggle and coping). Ralph Hood, who is widely recognized as the leading expert in this area, makes a sharp distinction between religious and spiritual experiences, which must be defined by individuals and/or traditions, and mystical experience, which he views as a cross-culturally stable experiential core of religion and spirituality. Consideration of research on religious, mystical, anomalous, and pathological experiences, however, highlights considerable overlap between them and a lack of attention to the processes whereby they are differentiated within and across cultures. Researchers are developing new measures that separate experiences and appraisals, as well as new methods for ensuring that respondents understand queries in the way researchers intend. These innovations should allow us to better understand the effects of culture and tradition on the way unusual experiences are constituted in the context of everyday life.
Neural auditory (dis)integration underpins phoneme change detection in Wernicke’s Aphasia
Authors: Robson Holly , Usai Francesco , Keidel James L. , Cloutman Lauren , Drakesmith Mark , Sage Karen , Welbourne Stephen
Published: July 2019

Speech perception impairments are a universal feature of Wernicke’s aphasia (WA) and are systematically related to the Wernicke’s-type language comprehension impairment. However, speech perception is not absent; phonological changes can be identified with sufficient acoustic difference between stimuli. This study used a measure of non-instantaneous oscillatory power to explore the neural mechanism associated with impaired and accurate phoneme change detection. Method: Electroencephalography was measured during a multiple deviant mismatch negativity (MMN) paradigm using consonant-vowel-consonant nonword stimuli in participants with WA and neurotypical participants. Oddball stimuli consisted of phonemic changes that could and could not be behaviourally perceived. Sensor level non-zero phase lagged (NZPL) power change, a measure of activity associated with neural interactions, was analysed over the MMN window. Results: Perceptible and non-perceptible phoneme changes were distinguished by NZPL power. Neurotypical and WA participants displayed increased NZPL power to perceptible phoneme changes. Non-perceptible phoneme changes resulted in limited NZPL power change in the neurotypical participants and an unexpected decreased in NZPL power over anterior and central midline and right hemisphere regions in the WA participants. Conclusions: The behavioural percept of phoneme change is associated with wide-spread integrated neural responses. Reduced NZPL power to non-perceived phoneme changes in the WA group indicates reduced neural integration in response to novel phonological information. It is proposed that disrupted ability to form integrated neural responses to auditory-phonological information is a biomarker of the language comprehension impairment in WA.
Reconsidering the Duchenne Smile: Indicator of Positive Emotion or Artifact of Smile Intensity?
Authors: Girard Jeffrey M. , Shandar Gayatri , Liu Zhun , Cohn Jeffrey F , Yin Lijun , Morency Louis-Philippe
Published: July 2019

The Duchenne smile hypothesis is that smiles that include eye constriction (AU6) are the product of genuine positive emotion, whereas smiles that do not are either falsified or related to negative emotion. This hypothesis has become very influential and is often used in scientific and applied settings to justify the inference that a smile is either true or false. However, empirical support for this hypothesis has been equivocal and some researchers have proposed that, rather than being a reliable indicator of positive emotion, AU6 may just be an artifact produced by intense smiles. Initial support for this proposal has been found when comparing smiles related to genuine and feigned positive emotion; however, it has not yet been examined when comparing smiles related to genuine positive and negative emotion. The current study addressed this gap in the literature by examining spontaneous smiles from 136 participants during the elicitation of amusement, embarrassment, fear, and pain (from the BP4D+ dataset). Bayesian multilevel regression models were used to quantify the associations between AU6 and self-reported amusement while controlling for smile intensity. Models were estimated to infer amusement from AU6 and to explain the intensity of AU6 using amusement. In both cases, controlling for smile intensity substantially reduced the hypothesized association, whereas the effect of smile intensity itself was quite large and reliable. These results provide further evidence that the Duchenne smile is likely an artifact of smile intensity rather than a reliable and unique indicator of genuine positive emotion.

Published: July 2019

Jamaica Kincaid is one of the most important contemporary Antiguan- American novelists. In all of her works, Kincaid focuses greatly on the influence of the colonial project from which her nation suffered greatly in the past. This paper offers a postcolonial reading of the novel Lucy (1999). The novel details the life of a girl who left her homeland, Antigua, and went to the United States to work as an au pair for a white family. The paper focuses on the author’s as well as the main character Lucy's anger at everything that reminded them of the colonizers, their homeland and family. This anger is seen as a form of hate traced in Lucy's reaction towards the educational system created by the colonizers, her homeland, and any authoritative figure. Lucy suggests that the educational system, which follows the British teachings, in Antigua asserts the domination of the colonizers and the humiliation of her nation. She hates her homeland because she considers it as a production made by the colonizers. Fleeing to the United States is a way to escape her past. Her hate of any kind of domination or control practiced on her is seen in her bad relationship with her mother and employer. Struggling to overcome her anger throughout the novel, Lucy discovers that the aftermaths of her nation colonial past formulates her present and points to her future.
The Representation of Muslim Characters in Post 9/11 Fiction
Authors: ABDERRAZAG Sara , SERIR Ilhem
Published: July 2019

In the wake of September 11th, attacks, several writers seek to depict the event’s impact on the country and its population. However, at the very beginning novelists seem to support the victimization of Americans and accuse the Muslims but later, many voices, including Muslim as well as non-Muslim writers, contribute through giving a voice to the ‘enemy’, and the American novelist Jess Walter is no exception. This analytical study, then, aims at providing evidence that Walter portrays Muslim characters in his work The Zero (2006) and that he does so to deconstruct the idea that Americans are totally innocent and victims while Muslims are the only entity to blame. The present paper, thus, is an attempt to pinpoint that through depicting several characters, including American and Middle Eastern ones, as reacting to the dominating ‘truth’, Walter seems to be giving a voice to the voiceless and providing readers with a different version of reality. Therefore, the ultimate purpose of this study is to prove that The Zero can be considered as a counter-discourse.
Signs of Colonial Discourse and their Psycho-Semiotic Significance
Authors: Farooqi Shahzad-ul-Hassan
Published: July 2019

Colonial discourse is defined as a “complex of signs and practices” (Ashcraft, Griffiths, & Tiffin, 1998, p.235). In the light of this statement this research article investigates following main questions. 1-What are those signs and practices which constitute colonial discourse? 2- How do they signify according to semiotic theory? This article is a philosophical endeavour to develop conclusive argument to determine the psycho-semiotic nature of those meaning making practices which form the very basis of the colonial discourse. The aim of this study is to establish a triangular link of the sign theory, psychological conditioning and colonial discourse. Fairclough’s (1995) triadic model of Critical Discourse Analysis has been used to analyse various linguistic practices of colonisers at Description—Interpretation—Explanation levels. After exemplifying from various texts, the study concludes that colonial signs are psychologically conditioned, discursively conventionalised and socially upheld linguistic practices which disseminate ideas they stand for. Hence, colonialism is not only a historical fact but also a linguistically and semiotically crafted phenomenon. The article lays down a vivid criterion which can serve for further analytical studies in the domain of colonial and post-colonial discourse.
Self-Abdication and Otherness in Philip Roth’s The Human Stain (2000)
Authors: Mohdeb Assia , Mammeri Sofiane
Published: July 2019

Identity, in one of its understanding, signifies a set of characteristics that make up a person’s ethical faithfulness to, identification with, and pride of one’s origin, tradition, and culture. Remaining true to one’s identity and being faithful to the core values of one’s culture is a complicated matter when it comes to a black living in white society like America, where color and racial identity are rudimentary prerequisites in self-definition and naming. Philip Roth’s novel entitled The Human Stain (2000) shows how some black figures undress their black identity to wear the prestigious white one to go onward with life as full selves, to have access to all the privileges the whites enjoy, and, above all, to live without the specter of race and the decisiveness of epidermal signs. The novel calls into question and revision such essentialist notions as other, class,andrace by describing the crises the subject or self undergoes in the light of racial prejudices, center-periphery relations, and class stereotypes. The present paper, then, addresses the act of self-abdication the protagonist, Silk Coleman, carries out to overstep the feeling of otherness and to dodge racial discrimination. The paper looks into the notions of selfhood and Otherness by negotiating the definition of the self and the distortion it undergoes in its encounter with the Other . The study aims at revealing, primarily, the effects of Black racial-passing, a common phenomenon in American society of the first half of the twentieth century, on familial relationships and cultural heritage. It also reveals the weight of gender and class discrimination in the individual’s identity formation and well-being.
Translating Metaphorical Expressions in Political Discourse: A Comparative Conceptual Study (English – Arabic)
Authors: Thajeel Mansour K.
Published: July 2019

This paper is to analyze the conceptual metaphors underlying the metaphorical expressions in political discourse, it explores the role of conceptual metaphors on political language and the translation strategy adopted to translate. To prove this, a cognitive approach to metaphorical expressions translation in political discourse is used. The study focuses on the analysis of the conceptual mapping of the abstract concept of politics into some other source domains. The given examples are used to argue that we use existing physical concepts to conceptualize abstract concepts for easy understanding. The results obtained reveal that the set of conceptual metaphors underlying the political expressions are almost similar in both languages in terms of the source domains used as well as their collocation patterns. The paper adds a further support to the claim that metaphors are not only a rhetorical tool used by literary men but it reflects our thinking when dealing with abstract issues in terms of concrete experience. The study has pedagogical implications for media translation students. They can compile their own glossaries using the collocation patterns relevant to each metaphorical expression.
“Imaginary Homelands”: Henderson the Rain King and the Spiritual Quest
Authors: MARROUCHI Ramzi B. Mohamed , Azmi Mohd Nazri Latiff
Published: July 2019

This paper investigates how and why the spiritual quest of Saul Bellow's Henderson the Rain King (1959) enigmatically results in madness. The identity of the American subject should be investigated in the light of his/her restless search of “Other modes of freedom” and imaginary homelands. -Pondering upon this, the researcher realizes that three fundamental questions need to be addressed: What are the aspects of Henderson's spiritual quest? -As a Jewish hero, how could Henderson be associated with quest, victimization and madness? Can one think about identity or identities? To unmask these blind spots, the theme of the quest will be investigated, first. The researcher shall trace Henderson's movement from a material world – New York – to a spiritual and romantic one, Africa. Second, Henderson's failure to cope with the new world and therefore his failure to (re) – construct the identity of the American character will be examined in details. This safely allows us to argue for the madness of the hero. The conclusion is that there is no ‘absolute identity’ to the American subject. Henderson's attempts to re-construct a “new identity” shall be seen in line with poststructuralist premises regarding “difference, multiplicity, other, cultural diversity.”

Pedagogical and Psychological Implements in the Holly Quran: The Case Surah Al-Kahf
Authors: Itmeizeh Mahmoud J.
Published: July 2019

Teaching English Language at schools and universities since 1995 and working as a school principle for four years and as an English Language supervisor for ten years, the author of the paper noticed that majority of teachers adopt traditional ways of teaching English as a foreign language (EFL) learners. In these classes teachers inculcate knowledge through spoon feeding practices rather than innovative ones that may challenge students' thoughts and abilities by facing them with non-traditional events, activities or scenes. In spite of the fact that Muslim teachers recite many verses from the Holy Quran daily, they are unaware of the pedagogical and psychological implements in the verses they have been reciting. Hence, this study aims at identifying the pedagogical and the psychological implements in the holly Quran, specifically Surah Alkhaf. To collect data, content analysis method was used to elicit the pedagogical and the psychological implements. To identify the context in which these implements appear, the Key Word In Context (KWIC) was used depending on Al Islam website. These implements are hoped to reshape the way of teaching and learning practiced by many teachers and learners at educational institutions. In most cases, EFL learners don't actively use their minds or the critical skills that may trigger solutions to problems they encounter continuously. This study emphasizes the disastrous consequences of jumping to conclusions before one analyzes and interprets any ambiguous phenomenon. Results of the study showed many pedagogical and psychological implements such as motivation for learning, learning contracts, contradicted practices, stimulus-response model, accommodation and equilibration. The study implicates that any process of learning should be fueled by internal motivation that sparks the learner's power. Learners shouldn't be hasty and jump to conclusions, instead they should do their best to critically analyze events so that they can solve dilemmas they face daily. Another significant implication is the use of learning contracts to enhance fruitful learning. Finally, some recommendations were stated at the end of the study.
The Ironic-Romantic Hero in Frazier’s Cold Mountain and Roth’s Nemesis
Authors: Rahmouni Souad
Published: July 2019

The present research discusses postmodernism’s subversion of the notion of romance, particularly the romantic hero figure. It puts forward irony as the vehicle for shifting the traditional stature of the hero, and his successful errand towards the anti-hero as the apotheosis of doom and failure. The paper suggests history’s force of abruptness as undeniable in the unsuccessful quest of the hero through the shattering historical events Charles Frazier (1950-) and Philip Roth (1933-) create in their modern novels, Cold Mountain (1997) and Nemesis (2010). It furthermore gets in-depth within the romantic psyche of both heroes to get across that their ‘consciousness’ is, in fact, mythical and not historical. Absence of historical consciousness in these characters, it is explained, participates considerably in the collapse which gets them eventually. Even the pastoral round which their aspiration hovers becomes a site for death and paralysis instead of the rejuvenation they sought after passionately. The larger canvas is then that of strife between romance and history, dream and reality drawn by the postmodern spirit inclination towards the double and the upturned.
If Looks Could Kill: Looking through the Artist’s Lenses in Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray (1891)
Authors: Ghazel Abdelfattah Ali
Published: July 2019

This paper investigates aestheticism and authorship in the Oscar Wilde’s only novel The Picture of Dorian Gray (1891). Victorian literature is usually read against the relationship between art and reality. The literary merit of a book is determined by the degree of its conformity with the moral values of the time. This paper offers a detached reading of the novel where the value of the book is found in its ability to initiate the reader into an aesthetic world. The research argues that Wilde fragments the act of artistic creation among the artist (the painter Basil), the sitter (Dorian Gray) and the audience (Lord Henry Wotton). This fragmentation renders the novel aesthetically autonomous from its reality. Aesthetic autonomy contributes to the debate of morality in Victorian literature by placing the work of art in an alternative sphere where normative values cease to apply.
Living Islam in a German Family and Germanness in a Muslim family
Authors: Akabli Jamal , Chibi Mounir
Published: July 2019

Türkisch für Anfänger, a German sitcom directed by Bora Dagtekin, son to a Turkish father and a German mother, draws on the quotidian of a German-Turkish – Deutsch-Türken– family tossed together by fate in the city of Berlin in the years following 9/11. For the sake of brevity, focus is mainly placed on the first season whose twelve episodes shed light on some of the major issues Muslims, German Muslims, and Turks together with Germans, are faced with when fate brings them together in so cosmopolitan a city as Berlin. With this in the background, it goes without saying that much of the scriptwriter’s personal life is brought to bear on his creation of an ethno-comedy intriguing enough to follow and retrace. This study aims at explicating the ways in which friction leads to the perception and the construction of Muslim Other within the gates as riddled with stereotypes. By deconstructing the stereotypical, the researchers seek to demonstrate how humour can be used to dispel and subvert clichés, thus creating a culture of resistance.
