ARISTOTELIAN CONCEPTS: A STUDY OF TRAGIC VISION
Authors: RAJ PRITHVI , JHA DR. R M
Published: September 2019

At first, Aristotle defined tragedy in Poetics around 330 BC. All other decisions related to tragedy followed by Aristotelian concept. Aristotle says, "Tragedy, then, is an imitation of a noble and complete action, having the proper magnitude; it employs language that has been artistically enhanced …; it is presented in dramatic, not narrative form, and achieves, through the representation of pitiable and fearful incidents, the catharsis of such incidents.” Several of these terms require explanation. "Imitation" (mimesis) does not refer wholly to acting out something on stage. Aristotle recognizes many forms of imitation including epic poetry (Homer), painting, song, and dance. “Noble, does not mean that the characters are necessarily of high moral standing or that they must always be kings, heroes, or gods: the title character of Euripides' Medea is a wicked sorceress who kills her own children. According to Hardison, the term could be translated as larger than life, majestic, or serious”. [4]
Socially Gaslighted Women in Bama’s Sangati
Authors: Rani A. , Ramesh Dr.T.S.
Published: September 2019

Gaslighting is a systematic psychological manipulation of behavior. Manipulative influence is exerted on a targeted individual or group to have desired behavior. This research paper applies the term gaslighting in the social context. The marginalized, especially women are socially gaslighted by the power structured social system. This paper studies Bama’s Sangatiwhich deals with many gaslighted women by narrating interconnected anecdotes. The conceptualized feminine ideology becomes a weapon for the degradation and elimination of women from the center. The impact of gaslighting on the older generation is so powerful that one cannot trace any sign of shattering it. The younger generation, in spite of the awareness of their abuses andpsychological and social influences, cannot overcome gaslighting as they are oppressed by many tactics like placing them in a shameful situation, depriving their rights, denying them their respect. They cannot escape from being victims of gaslighting as they are tied up by family responsibility and their innate tendency for motherhood.
Enhancing Teaching Pedagogy through Bowen Mechanism:
Authors: Gamble Honoureen Beatrice
Published: September 2019

Language has become a never- ending phenomenon in day-day life. To articulate one’s own idea

language has become an artifact in showcasing the rudiments of everyday life. It is a tool which

bridges the gap between the people so that the conflict between known and the unknown will not

take place. The major portal of communication is language and it operates at every level and

without this the mode will not function. Teaching is quite challenging in the contemporary times

and it expects the teaching fraternity to be a facilitator than a moderator. A few decades back

book based teaching was foregrounded and knowledge based teaching was back grounded

whereas in the present scenario knowledge based teaching which comprises hard skills and soft

skills matters a lot along with that the curriculm too evolves. This paradigmatic shift is to

make the student community a good product in the job market. Literature is unique in nature and

it informs the reader about the scenarios which will take place in the coming days and all this is

possible only through the artistic talent of the writers and they are the real oracles. Bowen

Mechanism having its deep origin in America when the society was fragmented owing to the

Aftermaths of the second world war .  A psychologist by nature has framed a few methodologies

to eliminate the human’s misunderstanding and for that communication acts as an impetus.
The Cultural Fabric of Rabindranath Tagore’s Philosophy of Cosmopolitanism
Authors: Thomas Dr. Pius V , Paul Bidyut Kanti
Published: September 2019

The paper explores into the concept of cosmopolitanism in Rabindranath Tagore’s Philosophy. Though Tagore couldn’t travel fully with his critique of nationalism and the entire extent of the debate, which determined India’s destiny later, the authenticity of Tagore’s perspective foresaw the most decisive themes of coexistence of our times symptomatically for us, such as, the criticism of nationalism and transnationalism, religion as humanism, the idea of cosmopolitan freedom and education as encounter with nature etc. The paper argues that Tagore’s concept of cosmopolitanism is composed of his philosophies of humanism, religion, art and aesthetics and the critique of nationalism. The discussion that is carried out in the paper though briefly examines some of the major works of Tagore. It looks at the theoretical engagements of some of the major contemporary thinkers made with Tagore’s thought, especially with his idea of cosmopolitanism. The paper, as it affirms the contemporaneous nature of Tagore’s concept of cosmopolitanism, however, suggests a new dimension that it adds to the philosophy of cosmopolitanism
Neo-Colonialism in India as Represented in Aravind Adiga’s The Last Man in Tower
Authors: AROKIASAMY P.MICHAEL , JAYANTHI DR. M. MARY
Published: September 2019

The term ‘neo-colonialism’ generally represents the indirect involvement of the developed countries in the developing world. Post-colonial studies show in detail that in spite of attaining independence, the influence of colonialism and its representatives are still very present in the lives of most former colonies in different forms. These influences constitute the subject matter of neo-colonialism. Aravind Adiga’s Last Man in Tower abounds with incidences that represent neo-colonialism in India. The novel portrays how Mumbai, one of the metropolitan cities and an important commercial centre has developed a place of multiple opportunities. To have a decent house in a commercial city like Mumbai therefore remains only a dream for the middle class people. The residents of Tower-A are ordinary middle class people of Mumbai who try to live their both ends in the globalised India. The novel spins around two opposing forces: the retired school teacher Masterji, trying to fight for his rights and Dharmen Shah, the greedy real estate developer. This paper therefore is an attempt to identify the elements of neo-colonialism in India as represented in Aravind Adiga’s Last Man in Tower.
Analysis of pre-service teachers’ perception towards the economic, environmental, social and cultural dimensions of Education for Sustainable Development
Authors: Jetly Manisha , Singh Dr. Nandita
Published: September 2019

Education for sustainable development (ESD) enjoys a huge momentum worldwide in which the role of teachers for making sustainable development goals a reality has been recognized significantly. Teachers through their knowledge, attitudes and skills can bring the learning about these concepts to the curriculum and class room interaction and are in a position to influence their students. Therefore it is pertinent, that teachers are sensitised towards these issues, so that they prepare and nurture their students for making appropriate and responsible choices which contribute to a sustainable future. At this juncture it becomes crucial to understand their priorities and awareness level in context of the sustainable development. The present research paper aims to analyse the perception of forty post graduate pre-service teachers of the Chandigarh region, towards ESD through the dimensions of economic sustainability, environmental sustainability, social sustainability and cultural sustainability. For this researchers have adopted qualitative content analysis methodology for an in-depth study of the subjective responses through an open ended question. The findings suggest that most of the respondents associated the perception of ESD strongly with environmental sustainability. It is noted that the pre-service teachers lack a holistic approach towards ESD. On the basis of the findings it is recommended that there is an urgent need of integrating the concept of ESD consciously and conscientiously in India’s teacher education programmes.

Teaching English Through A Praxis of Bowenian Methodology: An Analysis of the Student’s Psyche in acquisition of the four Vital Skills in constructing Language
Authors: Gamble Honoureen Beatrice
Published: September 2019

This Research area undertaken by the researcher will promote a new methodology to teaching English Creatively. The new technique in specific details the role and need of acquiring English easily with less books, but more of creative learning and aids. This process can be called an Easy Credulity of Language, that is still not applied to be one of the process in learning the subject English. The key factor, modelled here, is on the four basic language skills, as they complement each other. So, if one wants to be a well-rounded language learner, the only need is to ensure that you’re giving each skill the attention that it needs. The purpose of this research is to introduce a creative based activity learning to the student-centred life. The researcher has identified how the process alone is empty without the presence, signet ting the inclusion of the process (Teaching Techniques and Methodologies used) while presence signifies the (Actual state of mind occupied with Activities).  The researcher has focussed on the four cornerstones of learning a language, that paves the first way to acquire English effectively. The only difference, shown here is, the teaching methodology used is based on creative aids, and activity learning of language.

Between the Assassinations is a collection of short stories that spellout historical events that happened during the seven years lapse of time, between the assassination of Former Prime Minister Indra Gandhi, and her son Rajeev Gandhi. The seven stories highlight the dynamics of multicultural, multiethnic and multireligious practices that are prevalent in India.  Each story line is independent from the other, while the setting of each story and its character sprung up from the town Kittur. The story’s milieu, portrays the hindrances, characters face and how they overcome such hazards from the religious activists.
"Vexatious and an Abuse of the Process of the Court": The Assets Company v Mere Roihi Cases
Authors: Gilling Bryan
Published: September 2019

The history of the Assets Co v Mere Roihi decision, a well-known early Privy Council authority on indefeasibility of title under the Torrens system of land registration, illustrates the vulnerability of Maori to irregular land acquisition methods during the late 19th century. It also highlights the inadequacies of the Native Land Court system at the time. The author argues that the policy demands for legal certainty created a hidden and undue cost on the Maori participants: as a result of the case, Maori lost their main opportunity to gain redress for effectively or actually fraudulent dealings in their lands, and for mistakes made by the Land Court.
James Predergast and the Treaty of Waitangi: Judicial Attitudes to the Treaty During the Latter Half of the Nineteenth Century
Authors: Morris Grant
Published: September 2019

Chief Justice James Prendergast has largely been demonised over the last two decades as a result of his famous decision in the Wi Parata v The Bishop of Wellington case in 1877. In that decision, he notably stated that the apparent cession of sovereignty in the Treaty of Waitangi was "a simple nullity". This statement has effectively taken on a life of its own, and is still cited – with polarising effect – in the current debate on the place of the Treaty in modern New Zealand society.  The author argues, however, that the debate and commentary on the case has largely omitted to consider Prendergast as a man of his times and background and as an important part of a small legal community. The part that others had to play in the Wi Parata case is often not mentioned, for example. This article seeks to redress the balance somewhat. In doing so, it does not underestimate the devastating effect which the decision had in supporting the alienation of Maori land. However it emphasises that Prendergast's view represented the orthodoxy of the time, and for some considerable time thereafter, and that his main fault was that he failed to rise above the prejudices of the settler society in which he lived.

Günümüzde elektrik enerjisi ihtiyacı, teknolojik
gelişmeler sonucunda nüfusla orantılı olarak hızla artmaktadır. Artan bu talebi
karşılamak için büyük güçlü üretim merkezleri kurulmuştur. Üretim merkezlerinin
tüketim merkezlerinden uzakta kurulma gerekliliği, üretilen elektrik
enerjisinin çok yüksek gerilimle ve uzun iletim hatlarıyla tüketim merkezlerine
iletim zorunluluğu getirmiştir. Güç sistemleri de bu duruma bağlı olarak hızla
büyümüş ve karmaşık bir yapı oluşturmuştur. Bu durum önemli işletme ve kontrol
sorunlarını da beraberinde getirmiştir. Bu çalışmada, IEEE 14-baralı güç sisteminde
gerilim kararlılığı Uç Öğrenme Makinesi (UÖM) yardımıyla incelenmiştir. Bu
amaçla, IEEE 14-baralı güç sistemi modeli Matlab ortamında oluşturulmuş ve bu
model kullanılarak Newton-Raphson yöntemi yardımı ile yük akış analizi
yapılmıştır. Bu güç sisteminde gerilim kararlılığı Hat Kararlılık İndeksi (HKİ)
hesaplanarak değerlendirilmiştir. Yük akış analizinde tüm baraların aktif ve
reaktif güçleri 0.05 birim değer (pu) artırılmış ve her bir baraya ait toplam
1000 adet aktif güç, reaktif güç, ilgili baranın gerilimi ve faz açısı elde
edilmiştir. Bu değerler kullanılarak HKİ değerleri hesaplanmıştır. UÖM’ye
girişler; aktif güç, reaktif güç, ilgili baranın gerilimi ve faz açısı seçilmiştir.
UÖM’nin çıkışı ise HKİ değerleri olarak belirlenmiştir. UÖM’nın test başarımı
5-kat çapraz doğrulama ile verilmiştir. Ayrıca UÖM’nın başarımı farklı sayıda
gizli katman hücre sayısı ve farklı tip aktivasyon fonksiyonları için
incelenmiştir. Önerilen yöntemin en iyi test başarımı gizli katman hücre sayısı
100 olan ve tanjant sigmoid aktivasyon fonksiyonu kullanan UÖM’den elde
edilmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlardan, IEEE 14-baralı güç sistemlerinde gerilim
kararlılığının tespitinde UÖM’nin HKİ’yi oldukça yüksek bir başarımla tahmin

Published: September 2019

Antibiotics are one of the major drugs to eradicate microbial infection. Many types of antibiotics have been used as therapeutics in several fields such as medical, agriculture, animal husbandry for human beings as well as animals. In past few years microbes have become resistant to some common antibiotics. We found that drug resistance is escalating at an alarming rate. Some of the infections like typhoid, pneumonia, tuberculosis, and gonorrhea are becoming difficult to treat while antibiotics are becoming less effective. Typhoid fever is one of the most common foodborne illnesses leading to many deaths annually worldwide. The emergence of multi-drug resistant Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi strains (S. Typhi) has resulted in several large outbreaks of enteric fever in many developing countries of the world leading to increased morbidity and mortality. Multi-drug resistance remains a major public health problem, particularly in developing countries of Asia and Africa. Some important measures like rational use of antibiotics, improvement in public sanitation facilities, availability of clean drinking water, promotion of safe food handling practices and public health education can play a crucial role in the prevention of multiple drug resistant typhoid fever.
Agricultural Irrigation with Effluent – What should we be Worried About?
Authors: Dror Avisar  , Gefen Ronen-Eliraz
Published: September 2019

Policy regarding effluent water and reclamation aims to prevent environmental pollution while proposing an alternative water resource. Water makes up 99–99.9% of raw wastewater. Thus extracting organic and inorganic matter from water is a must. Worldwide, but especially in developed countries, great effort has been made to reuse wastewater, and it is becoming a reliable alternative source. Israel is the world leader in water reuse, allocating 85% of effluent water for agricultural irrigation. As such, it constitutes a “living laboratory” in which to study the implications of the intensive use of treated wastewater for agricultural irrigation, leading to research and legislation regarding effluent quality and regulation. Effluent produced in Israel is subject to severe regulations and standards and is considered suitable for every use except drinking water. It is mostly allocated for agricultural irrigation with no restrictions. The irrigated lands are close to natural water sources, and therefore water leaching from the fields infiltrate those sources, becoming part of the water cycle. A group of persistent and toxic nano- and micro-organic contaminants, including pharmaceutical residues, flows to water-treatment plants from hospitals, industry, agriculture and especially the domestic sector. These contaminants' chemical structure, characterized by aromatic rings and double bonds, makes them especially persistent; they are resistant to conventional biological treatment, used as a secondary treatment. As a result, the effluent that leaves the treatment plants, which is considered to be of high quality, actually contains pharmaceutical residues. After secondary and tertiary treatment, these persistent chemical residues can still be found in surface water, groundwater and agricultural products. Pharmaceutical residues in effluent allocated for agricultural irrigation are undesirable. Expansion of the monitoring system for those contaminants, improvement of the tertiary treatment, and implementation of advanced technologies for decomposition and removal of pharmaceutical contaminants are thus needed.

This paper aims  to explore how the concept of multiculturalism in the Medina Charter as an initial  concept applied by the  Prophet to realize multiculturalism in the  practice of pluralist shared life, Affirmation of the  Medina Charter as a preliminary check  in multiculturalism, because the  verses  of the  Koran  at the  time  of the  emergence of the Medina Charter not finished yet. Furthermore, it is explored how then the Koran responds to the Prophet’s politi- cal and  humanist policy steps  in a normative-historical manner in developing multiculturalism as an offer of Islamic concepts for the formation of multiculturalist instruments. The research used is library research (library reseach), which examines the content of the Medina Charter, related verses of the Koran and reading books related to the subject matter. While the  approach used  in this study  is historical-philosophical. The method for analyzing the  data  that  I use is de- scriptive analysis method. The basic assumption is that the policies and strategies developed in the Medina Charter and the response of the verses of the Koran are part of Islamic Education. In developing multiculturalism-based PAI, it is not enough just to normalize the basics, but it needs to be done in a community effort in the Learning Plan. The paradigm of multiculturalism that must be built is how the multicultural theology itself and what are the main principles that can be developed from the reading of the Medina Charter and the verses of the Quran relating to multiculturalism

Orden republicano en Un Hombre, texto dramático del chileno Adolfo Urzúa Rosas
Authors: Rueda Castro Jorge , Aliaga Guzmán Orlando
Published: September 2019

En el artí­culo se analiza cómo el texto teatral Un Hombre (1913) de Adolfo Urzúa Rosas (1864-1937), representa una visión del mundo rural que aún después de 100 años del hecho independentista pone en escena algunas de las ideas y principios ideológicos a partir de los cuales se inauguró la república de Chile. Por lo anterior, se realiza un análisis crí­tico del mundo que muestra la obra, el que se codificarí­a en relaciones sociales de dominio expresadas a través de dicotomí­as sustentadas por la clásica dualidad civilización. Se concluye, por ende, que la creación de Urzúa conlleva un ideario con el fin de sumar al progreso civilizatorio y a la vida polí­tica del paí­s por el que apostó el orden republicano hegemónico.
Conocimiento y escritura coloniales en la obra del jesuita Alonso de Ovalle
Authors: Massmann Stefanie
Published: September 2019

Este artí­culo se propone contribuir a las discusiones en torno a la construcción del conocimiento sobre el Nuevo Mundo a partir del análisis de una de las más reconocidas obras de la historiografí­a colonial chilena: Histórica relación del Reino de Chile (1646), del jesuita Alonso de Ovalle. Propongo que el conocimiento sobre Chile desplegado en el texto se modela a partir de dos determinantes: el lugar de enunciación del texto y el uso de fuentes de información o de autoridad. De este modo, se problematiza el hecho de que el criollo jesuita hable sobre su patria desde Europa y para los europeos, es decir, que presente lo familiar ante una mirada ajena.

Authors: Vivar Vivar Pilar Andrea , Arteaga Viveros Eduardo , Figueroa Alarcón Leslie Elizabeth
Published: September 2019

Se investigó la adquisición de las codas liquidas /l/ y /É¾/ en posición medial de palabra en una muestra compuesta por 161 niños hablantes del español de Chile, divididos en cuatro grupos etarios desde los 2,0 a los 3,11 años. La producción de las codas fue analizada como correcta, sustituida y omitida. Se observó que el rendimiento de estas estructuras aumenta en la medida que avanza la edad, al igual que la disminución del fenómeno de omisión. La sustitución se mantiene relativamente estable en todos los grupos etarios analizados, mientras que se observan patrones de sustitución relacionados con el punto de articulación y la escala de sonancia.

The Effects of Grant Aid on Student Persistence and Degree Attainment: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of the Causal Evidence
Authors: Nguyen Tuan D. , Kramer Jenna W. , Evans Brent J.
Published: September 2019

The provision of grant aid is important to students’ postsecondary opportunities and success. It is well established that grant aid increases the probability of enrollment in postsecondary education. A slate of studies in recent years has extended this research to examine whether grant aid also has an impact on persistence and degree attainment. This article presents a systematic review and meta-analysis of the best available evidence of the effect of grant aid on postsecondary persistence and degree attainment. The systematic review identifies and describes the landscape of the literature on grant aid programs and their effects on postsecondary success. A meta-analysis of 43 studies yielding 75 effect sizes estimates that grant aid increases the probability of student persistence and degree completion between 2 and 3 percentage points. When considering the dollar amount of aid, we estimate an additional $1,000 of grant aid improves persistence and attainment by 1.5 to 2 percentage points. Suggestions for future research and implications for policy are discussed.
New findings of seeds and fruits from Cenomanian–Turonian deposits of Western Siberia
Authors: Hvalj A. V.
Published: September 2019

Three-dimensional remains of seeds and fruits originating from Cenomanian–Turonian deposits of the Simonovo Suite are reported from one locality at the Kem’ River near the village Maslennikovo (58°11'24.8"N, 91°54'24.2"E) and from six localities at the Kiya River near the village Kubayevo (56°04'27.5"N, 87°52'22.4"E; 56°04'39.6"N 87°52'19.0"E; 56°04'39.6"N, 87°52'20.9"E), from the south of Western Siberia. The majority of the findings studied belong to undescribed genera of gymnosperms and flowering plants. The Maslennikovo collection has yielded seeds of Alapaja cf. uralensis Dorofeev (Cupressaceae) and Liriodendroidea Knobloch et Mai (Magnoliaceae), fruits of Porosia cf. verrucosa (Lesq.) Hickey, as well as platanaceous heads. The Kubayevo collections contain seeds and remains of a female cone of cf. Krassilovidendron fecundum Sokolova, Gordenko et Zavialova (Cupressaceae), seeds of Saccospermum cf. trebecense Knobloch et Mai and fruits or seeds of Spirellea Knobloch et Mai (angiosperms of unknown affinities). Despite having originated from deposits of the same suite, the Maslennikovo and Kubayevo collections almost don’t have overlapping forms.

Lexical processing in sign language comprehension and production – experimental perspectives
Authors: Gutierrez-Sigut Eva , Baus Cristina
Published: September 2019

The study of sign language has received increasing interest in the last decades. Within this growing field, research on sign language processing – including both comprehension and production – has also received a remarkable boost in recent years. At initial stages of research, efforts were concentrated on demonstrating universal aspects of language processing; thus, little attention was paid to the differences between modalities or to the specific aspects of the sign-modality. However, the wide recognition of sign languages as natural languages has supported a greater interest in furthering our understanding of modality specific factors (e.g., the use of proprioceptive and spatial information for phonological encoding or the greater potential for iconicity). This chapter offers a comprehensive overview of the most relevant studies of sign language comprehension and production that focus on the lexical level of processing. Results from behavioural studies, as well as evidence of similar neural substrates underlying speech and sign processing, have led to the widely accepted assumption that universal language processing principles can explain lexical access in both signed and spoken languages. However, although psycholinguistic and cognitive mechanisms as well as neural networks underlying speech and sign processing are strikingly similar, they are not identical. We propose that the study of the differences in processing of speech and signs can lead to a more complete picture of human language processing. Acknowledging these differences can also point researchers to factors influencing spoken language processing that might have been under-researched so far.

How does Question Content Influence Guilty Suspects’ Inferences about what the Interviewer knows?
Authors: Srivatsav Meghana , Luke Timothy John , Granhag Pär Anders , Vrij Aldert
Published: September 2019

The aim of this study was to understand how introducing a higher suspicion tone and specific crime-related details in the content of investigative questions influences inferences guilty suspects draw regarding prior information held by the interviewer. We tested three factors related to the specific content in questions namely level of suspicion (high and low suspicion), level of specificity (the amount of crime-related detail-general and specific) and topic discussion (whether a certain crime-related activity was discussed or not). We recruited N= 232 participants who read a crime narrative and interview transcripts related to the crime. They assumed the role of the suspect in the narrative and responded to scales measuring their perceived interviewer knowledge (PIK) based on the interviews. We found that a specific crime-related topic, when discussed increased PIK. We also found that a topic discussed with specific crime-related details in the questions increased PIK. This study provides support for our findings from a previous study that was the first to test guilty suspects’ inferences from a psycholinguistic perspective, and gives us a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms during police interviews.
Implicit binding between predictive relations
Authors: Leshinskaya Anna , Bajaj Mira , Thompson-Schill Sharon L.
Published: September 2019

Knowledge of predictive relations is a core aspect of learning. Beyond individual relations, we also represent intuitive theories of the world, which include interrelated sets of relations. We asked whether individual predictive relations learned incidentally in the same context become automatically associatively bound and whether they influence later learning. Participants performed a cover task while watching three sequences of events. Each sequence contained the same set of events, but differed in how the events related to each other. The first two sequences each had two strong predictive relations (R1 & R2, and R3 & R4). The third contained either a consistent pairing of relations (R1 & R2) or an inconsistent pairing (R1 & R3). We found that participants’ learning of the individual relations in the third sequence was affected by pairing consistency, suggesting the mind associates relations to each other as part of the intrinsic way it learns about the world. This was despite participants’ minimal ability to verbally describe most of the relations they had learned. Thus, participants spontaneously developed the expectation that pairs of relations should cohere, and this affected their ability to learn new evidence. Such associative binding of relational information may help us build intuitive theories.
