Les causes de décès aux grands âges en France, évolution récente
Authors: Meslé France , Vallin Jacques
Published: December 2020

Dans les pays les plus avancés, la mort survient de plus en plus aux grands âges. En France, par exemple, en 2016, 73 % des décès féminins se sont produits après 85 ans, alors que ce n’était le cas que de 41 % en 1975 et même seulement 25 % en 1950. Alors que le sujet paraissait jadis anecdotique, des chercheurs s’interrogent de plus en plus sur ce que peuvent être les causes de décès aux grands âges. Beaucoup, cependant, estiment que la question est relativement vaine car plus l’âge avance, plus les causes sont multiples ce qui rend d’autant plus difficile la détermination d’une cause principale tandis que de leur côté les médecins déclarants posent souvent des diagnostics flous. Il est vrai que le nombre de décès dont la cause est mal définie, voire non déclarée, augmente avec l’âge, mais il nous semble néanmoins que les certificats médicaux de cause de décès portent de plus en plus d’informations exploitables jusqu’à des âges très avancés dans beaucoup de pays, dont la France. Dans le même temps, la précision des âges au décès recueillis par la statistique de l’état civil, longtemps assez défaillante aux grands âges, s’est beaucoup améliorée au cours des dernières décennies.

Nous tentons donc ici de suivre l’évolution de la mortalité française par cause et par âge au-delà de 90 ans, depuis la fin des années 1970, tant pour les hommes que pour les femmes. Non seulement, l’étude confirme que la mortalité diminue à tous les âges, y compris les plus élevés, et quel que soit le sexe. Elle nous permet aussi d’évaluer le poids de chacun des grands groupes de causes (cancers, maladies du cœur, autres maladies de l’appareil circulatoire, maladies infectieuses et respiratoires, diabète, démences et maladies neuro-dégénératives, autres maladies, accidents et sénilité), dans ce recul de la mortalité aux âges élevés et donc dans la montée des espérances de vie à 90 ans, ainsi que le rôle qu’ils jouent dans la différence d’espérance de vie entre les sexes dont l’évolution, même aux grands âges s’est récemment retournée.

The impact of an arts‐integrated curriculum on student literacy and engagement
Authors: Feldwisch Rachel P. , Coker Kristie L. , Stuckey Shanna M. , Rittenhouse Ashley A. , Kite Kassi K. , Smith Joshua S.
Published: December 2020

This paper presents the results of mixed‐method examination of the implementation and outcomes of the Arts Integration Program (AIP). The AIP was created by a national nonprofit organization that works with educational systems, the artscommunity, and private and public sectors to provide arts‐related education to elementary school aged children. The arts‐based literacy curriculum included an artist‐in‐residence component. The study design included classroom observations,interviews, and a pre–post standardized Literacy Assessment Tool in 11 schools in the Midwest. Results show high levels of student enthusiasm and engagement in the AIP, with consistently sustained levels of student engagement when the artists in residence facilitated learning. Student scores increased modestly in literacy knowledge, and the findings provide avenues for other schools to infuse arts into their literacy instruction.
Multimodal Literacy through Children’s Drawings in a Romani Community
Authors: Kuo Hsiao‐Chin
Published: December 2020

Being part of an ethnographic research project, which investigated the funds of knowledge and literacy practices of a Romani community in northwestern Romania, this paper presents an exploratory examination, seeking ways to understand drawings and sketches as multimodal texts produced by five Romani children in this community. In general, Romani people, living on the margins of society, have often been labeled illiterate and been discriminated against. The examination of these Romani children’s drawings and sketches illuminated two features of their multimodal literacy practices— intertextuality and design—and scrutinized the stereotype of illiteracy thrust upon the Romani people. Based on the examination of the multimodal literacy practices of these Romani children, implications are drawn, including pedagogical applications, and future research directions are suggested.
New Literacies, New Narratives: Impact on a Portuguese Kindergarten
Authors: Pacheco Sónia
Published: December 2020

The present article aims to discuss our daily need to read everything that surrounds us and to properly use the information which comes to us from different kinds of media. The country, society, schools and teachers have to keep up with the new roles that children attribute to them in order to meet their needs as they grow up in a digital world. This article seeks to understand how the decisions and government guidelines made today by policy makers have a real impact on the everyday life of a Portuguese kindergarten and in the practices of teachers and their students. I used both interviews with kindergarten teachers and nonparticipant observation of the children's computer activities to collect data. This study concludes that the teachers who were interviewed feel the need for a change, and their educational suggestions show exactly that need to keep up with the interests of children.
Gender-Labeling of Children’s Books and Reading Preferences as Represented through the KidLitosphere
Authors: Seitz Emily
Published: December 2020

This article discusses a qualitative study conducted as part of a dissertation on gendered literacy. The findings are based on sampling and analysis of data drawn from 23 blogs that are part of the KidLitosphere, a website aggregating blogs dealing with children’s literature. It discusses the primary findings relating to the genderlabeling of children’s books, including 1) bloggers’ and commenters’ direct labeling of books as “girl”‐ and “boy”‐preferred; 2) educators’ expectations of boys’ reading preferences; 3) bloggers’ and commenters’ consistently mentioning certain books and/or series, coded “iconic boy books,” in reference to boys’ reading; and, 4) educators’ expectation that boys prefer male protagonists and girls prefer female protagonists. It also discusses resistance to these themes in the form of 1) bloggers’ and commenters’ speaking directly against the labeling of books as “girl”‐ and “boy”‐preferred; 2) bloggers’ and commenters’ expressing the belief that a child’s sex should not influence the child’s reading preferences; and, 3) educators’ not expecting girls to prefer what are perceived to be “girl”‐preferred texts, or boys to prefer “boy”‐preferred texts.
Language and Sexuality in South Korea: A Case Study
Authors: Bumbalough Mathew
Published: December 2020

This case study examines the language and sexuality of a gay man living in South Korea, exploring current literature, theories, and interview data as a way of investigating sexuality as a marker of identity. I define sexual identity in this case through the subjective reality of the participant as he expresses his ‘true’ self in the lived experience of his travels to different countries and speaking multiple languages. The aim of this study then is to analysis the discourse using Philip and Jorgensen’s (2002) method of critical discourse analysis from a single interview to see how pronoun selection, language selection, speech intonations and inflections in his speech to see how it informs current research in Korean Studies and gender discourses.

Democratic majority principle in trouble?
Authors: Bangert Armin
Published: December 2020

Due to a lack of religious or metaphysical orientation in modern Western societies, interpersonal conflicts of interest and value are solved under the premise of individuals acting rationally through the interaction on a free market and the formation of political majorities gaining legislative power. However, the legitimacy of this approach becomes increasingly questionable when it comes to sustainability conflicts. In view of this, Hans Jonas considered the possibility of the need to suspend democratic institutions in favor of a benevolent tyrant to avert a potential catastrophe. Since any form of centralism comes with its own problems of legitimacy, utilizing the more modest orientation claims of prudence ethics is a more promising alternative in deliberations on the justifiability of an occasional suspension of the majority principle without exposing a society to the dangers of domineering arbitrariness.

Authors: Haug Sonja , Vetter Miriam , Weber Karsten
Published: December 2020

Die Akzeptanz unter Bewohnern und Bewohnerinnen gewinnt bei hoch komplexen, technisch anspruchsvollen energetischen Sanierungen als „Innovationsmotor“ zunehmend an Relevanz. Der Beitrag basiert auf zwei Fallstudien zur partizipativen Nutzereinbindung bei energetischen Sanierungen im genossenschaftlichen Wohnbau historischer Stadtquartiere in Regensburg. Neben einer sozialverträglichen Sanierung wurde jeweils ein hohes Maß an Energieeffizienz bei den technischen Lösungen angestrebt. Haushaltsbefragungen und qualitative Interviews zeigen die hohe Akzeptanz von Sanierungsmaßnahmen, sofern die Senkung der Energiekosten die erhöhte Miete kompensiert. Abschließend werden Akzeptanzfaktoren wie Partizipation, Vertrauen, Sozialverträglichkeit und Autarkie erörtert.
Responsibility versus sustainability, ethics, and societal engagement
Authors: Ladikas Miltos , Hahn Julia , Hennen Leonhard , Scherz Constanze
Published: December 2020

We examine the concept of responsible research and innovation (RRI) in Germany in the context of national science, technology and innovation (STI) as well as its legal and normative framework in relation to ethics and societal engagement and compare the results to similar international research. Our analysis shows that responsibility plays a central role in research practice guided by research ethics standards and societal grand challenges. Consequently, there is a significant increase in demands for inclusion and engagement of a wider stakeholder spectrum in STI. Compared to other countries, the concept of RRI in Germany is increasingly superseded by that of sustainability. We argue that responsibility and sustainability are conceptually close and highly interchangeable in the German national debate. We conclude with basic recommendations for greater clarity in research on responsibility and sustainability and the aims of ethics and societal engagement.
Nonpartisan advice for the U.S. Congress matters
Authors: Scherz Constanze , Persons Timothy M.
Published: December 2020

As in all democratically constituted states, scientific policy advice to the legislature in the U. S. is faced with the challenges of this time: What can good advice look like given the rapidly developing new technologies and their far-reaching implications for society? Despite decades of collaboration between consultants and advisors, mutual trust must be won over and over again. Against this background, it is particularly interesting to take a closer look at current developments in the U. S.: Timothy M. Persons, GAO’s Chief Scientist, gives insights into the work of the U. S. Government Accountability Office (GAO), which advises the U. S. Congress. It becomes clear that balanced results of technology assessment and other GAO products arise when not only the majority but also the minority party is heard when prioritizing congressional inquiries. The research questions must be impartial and meet congressional requirements. The interview was conducted by Constanze Scherz (ITAS-KIT).

Authors: Haudi . , Aseh Khairi , Kenny Kamal , Pathmathan P. Ravindran
Published: December 2020

Economic growth in rural areas faces several challenges when comparing to urban regions. Limited employment opportunities and smaller profit from rural specific economic activities such as agriculture caused lower incomes to the local community. It is also very often that Agri-food products is undervaluation and not able to reach out outside market. This economic gaps between regions has resulted in several cases of outward migration flows of rural populations and land abandonment, which possibly brings major risk to the future of rural growth and sustainability. As reinforced by the needs to address the gaps and demands of the local community, therefore, this study was carried out to investigate the socio-economic demands and challenges of the local population in Temerloh, Pahang to recommend relevant assistance and interventions required. Findings from this study will provide important inputs that will suffice relevant literatures for the stakeholders to plan for a better socio-economic development in Malaysia. In general, the overall results of this study reveal the gaps faced by the community in the District of Temerloh in the context of social and economy. This study was carried out via a structured survey throughout the district involving 300 respondents and also complemented with a face-to-face interview carried out with key stakeholders.

Published: December 2020

In Malaysia, the infusion of private and public sectors has attributed to the nation’s socio-economic development as strengthen by the need to address the demands and challenges of the local community. These efforts will more likely provide several important ideas that would suffice related and relevant literatures, which will be used to develop a better socio-economic growth in Malaysia. In an economic sense, development entails the transformation of simple subsistence economies into complex monetary economies. In the process, an increase in the proportion of products that are sold or exchanged and a decline in the proportion of consumption may take place concurrently. The purpose of this study is to examine the socio-economic demands and gaps of the local population and to suggest assistance and interventions required. The overall results of this study reveal the challenges faced at the community level in the District of Kuala Lipis in the context of social and economy. This study was carried out via a structured survey throughout the district involving 300 respondents and also complemented with a face-to-face interview carried out with key stakeholders. The study findings were also supported with secondary data compilation of journals, articles and speeches.
Japanese Recruitment Practices in Times of Crisis
Authors: Firkola Peter
Published: December 2020

This paper examines past recruitment practices to provide insight into how Japanese companies have adapted during times of crisis. A literature review combining company surveys and government-related statistical data was used. It was found that many large companies adapted recruitment processes in varying degrees to deal with the changing economic environment. These changes include varying the number of hires and diversifying hiring conditions. Although many Japanese companies adapt their recruitment processes, they seem resistant to change their overall recruitment strategy even during a crisis.

Published: December 2020

The study assessed the knowledge, attitudes and perception of Nigerian Military population towards the coronavirus outbreak. A web-based cross-sectional survey was used to collect from 216 data from military officers from the Nigerian Army, Nigerian Air Force and the Nigerian Navy. Majority of the study sample were males, 88.4% (n = 191) and more than half the respondents were between 21 to 30 years old (50.5%). Also, 82.4% of the sample were graduates and 54.2% married. 82.9% were from Nigerian Army and 57.9% were commissioned officers with 6-10 years’ work experience 49.5 (n=107). Results show that there was no significant correlation between demographic factors of gender, age, military type, religion, education and marital status and knowledge of COVID-19 (p>.05). Results further show that there was no significant correlation between demographic factors and perception of COVID-19 (p>.05), meaning there was no significant difference in perception of COVID-19 based on demographic factors. Finally, the results showed that there was no significant correlation between demographic factors and attitude to COVID-19 (p>.05).  Irrespective of gender or age for example, knowledge, attitude, and perception of COVID-19 was good among the military population. Despites high level of awareness among the study population, it was recommended that the military authorities in Nigeria further strengthen their health systems, as well as the knowledge of infectious diseases and pandemics which will help them to assist the government and in educating the general populace through their military-civilian interface.
Some Observations on the Good and Bad Chances of Feasible Social Engineering
Authors: Kioukias Dimitris K.
Published: December 2020

We attempt to discuss anew the idea of engaging in total social transformation without regard to huge human cost. We argue that “social engineering” entails much more risk than useful achievement, for our destructive capabilities exceed our creativity potential. To support the argument we draw some parallels between key social and political phenomena with aesthetic, communicative, or legal ones. Especially dangerous seems to be a partial appropriation of time, space and history, or a full disregard of them in efforts to change society. In the end we come to the conclusion that, while social manufacturing is feasible, at least to a certain extent, the end result of the process is quite often no better than the previous state of affairs. Therefore, the question of human capacity to effect social transformation should be accompanied by the question “with which specific result”.

The issue of institutional care of the youngest children has been rarely discussed in scientific studies. In the context of the contemporary debates about improving the quality of toddlers’ care and education, it is a good idea to remind about the origin of nurseries and the development thereof. The first nurseries were established in Poland over 100 years ago. From the beginning, before Poland even regained independence until present day, they have changed their functions and organization. The aim of the article is to show the changes to the function of crèches against a political, social and cultural background since the very beginning of the existence of nurseries until the outbreak of World War II. The method used in this article is historical explanation, and the technique is an analysis of documents: literature, magazines, legal acts. The responsibilities of crèches discussed in this article include care, health -related, educational, upbringing and family-related activities This is the first of two articles related to changes in the function of crèches in a historical approach.
Aproximación al Framing en medios tradicionales y en nativos digitales. El caso del impuesto a las hipotecas en España.
Authors: Quintana Pujalte Leticia
Published: December 2020

Entre octubre y noviembre de 2018 las deliberaciones sobre quién debe pagar los impuestos de las hipotecas –si el cliente o la Banca- tuvieron una repercusión económica, política y por supuesto, mediática en España. Desde un enfoque marcado por el framing y con el objetivo de identificar diferencias y similitudes, se interpretan los encuadres que ofrecieron sobre este tema los medios tradicionales y los nativos digitales del país ibérico. La perspectiva es innovadora porque se comparan los encuadres en estos medios con orígenes diferenciados. A partir de una metodología de análisis de contenido mixta se analizaron piezas informativas correspondientes a los medios de referencia en España. El País, El Mundo, Elconfidencial.com y Eldiario.es. Entre los resultados más relevantes está la privilegiada presencia de la Banca en los encuadres de los medios, y de las fuentes político-institucionales. Se concluyó también que el framing varía si se realiza desde medios tradicionales o desde medios nativos digitales, por el particular uso de las fuentes de información y los valores culturales a los que éstas apelan. La hegemonía del discurso de la Banca propicia una opinión pública que conoce de modo preferencial los intereses de estos grupos privados.

Characterization Shear Properties of PVC Foams Instrumented by Optical Fiber under Flexural Loading
Authors: Mharsi Karim , Chapeleau Xavier , Fajoui Jamal , Sellami Amira , Casari Pascal , Kchaou Mohamed
Published: December 2020

The bending behavior of foam core sandwich composites has increasingly attracted attention and application in industries such as shipbuilding, aircraft, and wind turbine industries. The main objective of this research work is the assessment of shear strain in a foam core beam by means of optical fiber sensors during a bending test. Experimental studies were conducted on a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) foam beam in which three optical fibers were embedded in a longitudinal plane across the thickness of the foam core; straight optical fibers measure strains due to the tension/compression load, whereas the sinusoidal fibers catch strains due to the shear load. A finite element model was used to predict strain levels in order to validate and explain optical fiber sensor measurements from three- and four-point bending tests. The concordance of the shear properties identified by optical fiber sensor results and obtained by finite element simulation was evaluated to validate the newly developed technique of characterization. Results shows good agreement between the experimental and numerical responses.

Political Communication: Social Media Strengths and Threats in the 2019 General Election
Authors: Maharani Prima Suci , Nurafifah Nisma Laela
Published: December 2020

Social media makes it easy for a group to exchange information and influence each other. Today, most Indonesians are familiar with social media and have social media accounts. Participating candidates in the 2019 General Election did not just ignore this, they used social media as a means to campaign. The candidates introduce their programs and try to get the sympathy of potential voters without having to go outside. It is more efficient in terms of time and cost. But apart from having a positive side, social media also has negative impacts such as the rise of hoaxes, post-truth and black campaigns. This study aims to examine the phenomenon of the widespread use of social media as a political campaign strategy by building a sense of sympathy and voter emotions rather than rationality. The author uses data collection methods with literature study, and the method used for this study is literature study.
The Role of Local Elite in Public Service Innovation in Sleman Regency (Comparative Study of Wukirsari Village and Blue Lagoon Tourism Village)
Authors: Nugroho Hanantyo Sri
Published: December 2020

This article intends to provide an overview of the role of local elites in public service innovation. Through a qualitative descriptive approach, this research discusses the dilemmas and success factors of the role of local elites in public service innovation. The objective of this research is the role of Rosyid Ma'ruf and Suhadi as initiators in innovating public services. This problem is interesting to study because there is a role played, where formal actors are able to manipulate community participation due to the formal carrying capacity of the environment while non-formal actors are only limited to practical awareness of the problems that arise at the time and also follow what the actors want. The results showed that public service innovation can be influenced by critical awareness as well as practical awareness of the role of local elites. The tendency of critical awareness arises from the consequences of the actor's understanding of the authority, problems, and existing solutions. That is, actors have the ability to mobilize and direct solutions that are comprehensive. Furthermore, the tendency of practical awareness arises from the consequences of the actor's understanding of the existing problem and solution. That is, the actor has the ability to move and direct the solution that is moving to the solution desired by the actor. The recommendation of this research is the importance of the ability of local elites to understand authority, problems, and solutions so that they can understand how the solution is done to achieve goals that are comprehensive, not only in accordance with what is desired by the elite.

From New Man to New Lad: The Myth of Masculinity in NCT 127’s 'Kick It' Music Video
Authors: Khamaduddin Muhammad
Published: December 2020

K-pop has been promoting various mythical masculinities to global audience through the boybands’ performances, in which it interests a huge attention. This study uses qualitative approach to uncover the myths behind the representation of masculinity in NCT 127’s “Kick It” music video which was released in 2020. Beynon’s classification of masculinity in media (New Man and New Lad) is used to classify the masculinity depicted in the music video. Moreover, Barthes’ semiological model is employed to explore the denotation, the connotation, and the myth of the music video. Furthermore, the author captures five representative scenes to be analyzed. This study shows that the depictions of masculinity in the music video are varied. Mostly, the music video displays New Lad masculinity, but some scenes also depict New Man masculinity, or even the combination of both (hydra masculinity). Moreover, the uncovered myths in the music video are basically about the relationships between masculinity, violence, sport, and consumerism.

Pre-partition India and the Rise of Indian Nationalism in Amitav Ghosh’s 'The Shadow Lines'
Authors: Zobaer Sheikh
Published: December 2020

The Shadow Lines is mostly celebrated for capturing the agony and trauma of the artificial segregation that divided the Indian subcontinent in 1947. However, the novel also provides a great insight into the undivided Indian subcontinent during the British colonial period. Moreover, the novel aptly captures the rise of Indian nationalism and the struggle against the British colonial rule through the revolutionary movements. Such image of pre-partition India is extremely important because the picture of an undivided India is what we need in order to compare the scenario of pre-partition India with that of a postcolonial India divided into two countries, and later into three with the independence of Bangladesh in 1971. This paper explores how The Shadow Lines captures colonial India and the rise of Indian nationalism through the lens of postcolonialism.

Authors: Fitria Tira Nur
Published: December 2020

The objectives of this research are to know the derivational and inflectional morphemes and to know the functions of morpheme in the selected news from Tempo.co. This research uses qualitative method. The analysis shows that the derivational and inflectional morphemes found in Tempo.co as 357 words. Derivational shows 97 data (27.17 %) and inflectional shows 260 data (72.83 %). Derivational changes the grammatical categories of words which consists of suffix and prefix, for example, noun-forming suffix changes the words/morphemes to nouns in the suffix –ion, -ment, -ist, -ship and –er. Adjective-forming suffix changes the words/ morphemes to adjectives in the suffix –able, -al, -ful, -ic, -cal, and –ous. Adverb-forming suffix changes the words/morphemes to an adverb in the suffix –ly. While, verb-forming prefix changes adjective to new adjective or form verb to new verb in the prefix un- and mis-. The inflectional does not change the grammatical categories of words which consists of “-s, -‘s, -er, -est, -s, -ed, -ing, and –en”. The suffix –s means plural. The suffix -‘s, -s’ means possessive. The suffix –er means comparative. The suffix –est means superlative. The suffix –ed means past. The suffix –ing means Ving (continuous). The suffix –en means participle.
Hormonal control of cardiac regenerative potential
Authors: Amram Alexander V , Cutie Stephen , Huang Guo N
Published: December 2020

Research conducted across phylogeny on cardiac regenerative responses following heart injury implicates endocrine signaling as a pivotal regulator of both cardiomyocyte proliferation and heart regeneration. Three prominently studied endocrine factors are thyroid hormone, vitamin D, and glucocorticoids, which canonically regulate gene expression through their respective nuclear receptors thyroid hormone receptor, vitamin D receptor, and glucocorticoid receptor. The main animal model systems of interest include humans, mice, and zebrafish, which vary in cardiac regenerative responses possibly due to the differential onsets and intensities of endocrine signaling levels throughout their embryonic to postnatal organismal development. Zebrafish and lower vertebrates tend to retain robust cardiac regenerative capacity into adulthood while mice and other higher vertebrates experience greatly diminished cardiac regenerative potential in their initial postnatal period that is sustained throughout adulthood. Here, we review recent progress in understanding how these three endocrine signaling pathways regulate cardiomyocyte proliferation and heart regeneration with a particular focus on the controversial findings that may arise from different assays, cellular-context, age, and species. Further investigating the role of each endocrine nuclear receptor in cardiac regeneration from an evolutionary perspective enables comparative studies between species in hopes of extrapolating the findings to novel therapies for human cardiovascular disease.

The effects of extraction conditions on the yield of polysaccharides from the fruit of Chaenomeles sinensis (FCS) using a hot compressed water method were investigated. The results showed that an appropriately high temperature (150 °C) and a moderate extraction time (45 min) at a material to water ratio of 1 to 10 g/mL led to a high yield of alcohol precipitation polysaccharide (PA). The purified polysaccharides (CSP-1, CSP-2, and CSP-3) were successfully obtained using a DEAE-52 chromatographic column. Chemical analysis showed that CSP-2 and CSP-3 were homogenous and exhibited characteristics of esterified pectins, whereas CSP-2 mainly consisted of galacturonic acid (GalA), galactose (Gal), arabinose (Ara), rhamnose (Rha), and mannose (Man) with an average molecular weight of 59.1 kDa. Furthermore, CSP-1 possessed stronger antioxidant ability according to DPPH scavenging and reducing power compared with CSP-2 and CSP-3. However, it was weaker with respect to OH scavenging. The technical data presented in this study could help the industry make use of polysaccharides from FCS as a source of pectin for a range of pharmaceutical, culinary, and cosmetic products.
HAMLET’S IMAGE AS A POET AND ITS INTERPRETATION IN VALERIY ANANYIN’S TRANSLATION
Authors: Chepurina Irina
Published: December 2020

The article analyzes the image of Hamlet as a poet which is developed in a new translation of The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark (2010) by a Karelian translator Valeriy Ananyin. The novelty of the translation accompanied by the translator’s valuable commentaries and notes contributes to the importance of the research, because the image of Hamlet as a poet, which appears to be off the radars of Russian and foreign researchers, is reflected by Valeriy Ananyin for the first time. The article attempts to explore the image of Hamlet as a poet in the context of Valeriy Ananyin’s translation strategy using the comparative and culture-historical methods, as well as multilevel text analysis and translation linguistic commentary. The research material is original and translated Prince Hamlet’s poetic lines, which the translator discusses in his literary critical essay on Prince Hamlet’s verses. Hamlet’s poetic heritage, however small, reveals the artistic and imaginative side of his mind, allowing to speak about Hamlet as an artist. Valeriy Ananyin’s translation approach used for creating the image of Hamlet as a poet is determined by a theatre director’s vision of Hamlet as a tragedy intended for stage performance. Therefore Hamlet’s verses translated by Valeriy Ananyin become incentive, which is expressed by frequent exclamations and ample gestures. Transformations identified in the studied translation illustrate such techniques as modulation, a change in stylistic connotation or a shift of the referential meaning of a word.
INHIBITION OF EARLY STAGES OF SALMONELLA TYPHIMURIUM BIOFILMS BY EXTRACELLULAR DNA (EDNA) AND GENOMIC DNA (GDNA)

Published: December 2020

In this study, the role of extracellular DNA in the establishment and maintenance of Salmonella biofilms was investigated. As a result of spectrophotometric measurements using PicoGreen® dye, it was determined that planktonic cells contain less eDNA compared to their biofilm counterparts. As a result of incubation at  20 °C for 24h, eDNA contents of planktonic Salmonella Typhimurium SL1344 and DMC4 cells were determined as 206 ng/ml and 211 ng/ml, respectively. However, eDNA amounts increases to 313.18 ng/ml for SL1344 and 319.37 ng/ml for DMC4 at biofilm structure of the same strains. The effects of extracellular DNA (eDNA) released from biofilm cells and genomic DNA (gDNA) isolated from Salmonella cells on the biofilm formation in the bacteria were investigated using DNase I and Benzonase enzymes that digest DNA. In the experiments where both enzymes were applied, the active fragmentation of eDNA and gDNA resulted in a statistically significant (p <0,01) decrease in biofilm formation at the end of 24 hours compared to non-enzyme treated samples, but this effect disappeared after 48 hours of incubation.

Authors: Akin Bora , Akyüz Türkan
Published: December 2020

In this study, antibacterial effect of ZnO particles was investigated using the Taguchi method. ZnO crystals with different size, and BET specific surface areas were produced in the laboratory. Bacteria of S. aureus (ATCC 25923), L. monocytogenes (ATCC 15313) and S. Enteriditis (ATCC 13076) were developed and disk diffusion method has been used to determine antibacterial activity of ZnO crystals on these bacteria. ZnO crystals prepared were found to be effective on these bacteria, and comparative results were obtained. It has been determined that the crystal particles of different properties of the same material have different effects on the bacteria. The results show that the Sample N2 on S. aureus at 0.1 g.mL-1 concentration was optimized.

Die Kanzlei wurde als oberste Justiz- und Verwaltungsbehörde für den königlichen Anteil von Schleswig und Holstein 1648 in Flensburg errichtet und 1649 nach Glückstadt verlegt. Ihre Zuständigkeit war seit 1713 auf Holstein beschränkt und wurde 1734 auf die Grafschaft Rantzau, 1762 auf die plönischen und 1774 auf die gottorfischen Lande ausgedehnt. Zugleich ersetzte man die Bezeichnung "Glückstädtische Regierung" durch "Holsteinische Landesregierung zu Glückstadt und Holsteinisches Oberkonsistorium". Die vorher formell unterschiedlichen besonderen Gerichte - Justizkanzlei, Oberamtsgericht, Pinnebergisches-, Altonaisches-, Rantzauisches Oberappellationsgericht - wurden 1806 als "Holsteinisches Obergericht" zusammengefasst. Seit 1816 hieß es "Holstein-Lauenburgisches Obergericht". Als 1834 in der mittleren Instanz Justiz und Verwaltung getrennt wurden, ging die Verwaltung an die Schleswig-Holsteinische Regierung auf Gottorf über; das Obergericht bestand als reine Justizbehörde fort.

Bei der Trennung von Justiz und Verwaltung im Jahr 1834 wurden die Akten geteilt. Die in Glückstadt verbliebenen Justizakten sind später größtenteils vernichtet worden, die Verwaltungsakten blieben erhalten und bilden den Kern des im Landesarchiv Schleswig-Holstein verwahrten Bestandes.
Lectura, escritura, matemáticas y habilidades digitales en la escuela. Hacia la necesidad de alfabetizaciones académicas continuas
Authors: González de la Torre Yolanda , Jiménez Mora José
Published: December 2020

La experiencia de las personas autoras como docentes en niveles que van desde la educación media hasta el posgrado permite notar deficiencias en el estudiantado vinculadas a ciertos saberes básicos. Es por eso que, en este ensayo, se discute acerca de la necesidad de que en cada nivel educativo se retomen tales saberes para facilitar la adquisición y construcción de conocimiento mediante procesos que, en la literatura, se pueden explicar desde el concepto alfabetización académica, de manera particular en cuatro aspectos: lectura, escritura, matemáticas y uso de las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación. El argumento principal es que al tratarse de saberes básicos que se esperaría tuviera consolidado el estudiantado en cada nivel, el hecho de que no los demuestre da lugar a la necesidad de definir, y, de ser necesario, ayudarlo a aprender tales saberes. Se concluye que, con ello, se podría mejorar su desempeño en tareas de adquisición y construcción de conocimiento según lo que le sea demandado en el nivel que se encuentre, así como a familiarizarse con requisitos de los campos disciplinares en que se forma, en el caso de las personas que están en licenciatura y posgrado

La investigación de carácter cualitativa que presentamos pretende aportar al debate respecto a las posibilidades que tiene la escuela de contribuir a la formación ciudadana de sus estudiantes a propósito del cumplimiento de una ley chilena que data del año 2016, la cual obliga a los establecimientos educacionales del país a tener un plan de formación ciudadana, con actividades que incluyan a la niñez que ingresa a la educación inicial, hasta aquella que cursa el último año de enseñanza media. El objetivo de esta investigación ha sido reconocer la forma en que ha enfrentado la escuela este desafío y especialmente, el nivel de participación que ha tenido la comunidad escolar en la confección de los planes. Geográficamente, la investigación se realizó en dos regiones de Chile, Maule y Biobío. Para recopilar la información se realizaron siete grupos de discusión, y para procesar y analizar los datos, se recurrió a la estrategia de análisis cualitativo elaborada por Strauss, con la ayuda del software Atlas.ti 7. Los resultados muestran que, en su elaboración e implementación, el plan de formación ciudadana encuentra una serie de condicionamientos propios de la escuela como organización y campo social. Estos terminan por acotar su capacidad de acción para promover una cultura de participación y contribuir a través de este expediente a la formación ciudadana del estudiantado, lo que nos enseña a considerar la necesidad de estudiar con mayor profundidad la naturaleza política de la escuela y las condiciones desiguales con que sus integrantes se involucran en ella.
