Languages of science

Published: December 2024

Scientific languages are vehicular languages used by one or several scientitific communities for international communication. According to Michael Gordin, they are “either specific forms of a given language that are used in conducting science, or they are the set of distinct languages in which science is done”.

Until the 19th century, classical languages such as Latin, Classical Arabic, Sanskrit, or Classical Chinese were commonly used across Eurasia for the purpose of international scientific communication. A combination of structural factors, the emergence of nation-states in Europe, the Industrial Revolution and the expansion of colonization entailed the global use of three European national languages: French, German and English. Yet new languages of science such as Russian or Italian had started to emerge by the end the 19th century, to the point that international scientific organizations started to promote the use of constructed languages like Esperanto as a non-national global standard.

After the First World War, English gradually outpaced French and German and became the leading language of science, but not the only international standard. Research in the Soviet Union had rapidly expanded in the years following the Second World War and access to russian journals became a major policy issue in the United States, prompting the early development of Machine Translation. In the last decades of the 20th century, an increasing number of scientific publications relied primarily on English in part due to the preeminence of English-speaking scientific infrastructures, indexes and metrics like the Science Citation Index.

The development of open science has revived the debate over linguistic diversity in science, as social and local impact has become an important objective of open science infrastructures and platforms. In 2019, 120 international research organizations co-signed the Helsinki Initiative on Multilingualism in Scholarly Communication and called for supporting multilingualism and the development of “infrastructure of scholarly communication in national languages”. The 2021 Unesco Recommendation for Open Science includes linguistic diversity as one of the core features of open science, as it aims to “make multilingual scientific knowledge openly available, accessible and reusable for everyone”.
Open Science Infrastructure

Published: December 2024

Open Science infrastructure plays a fundamental role in research. Large ecosystems of interconnected scholarly infrastructures have emerged in Europe, South and North America since 2000, through the development of new open science projects and the conversion of legacy infrastructures to open science principles. In 2021 the Unesco described Open Infrastructures as “shared research infrastructures that are needed to support open science and serve the needs of different communities” and acknowledged them as one of the four pillars of Open Science.

The landscape of open infrastructure is significantly decentralized. While a few very large actors exist, most infrastructures have a small size and rely on limited costs (less than €50,000 per year). While diverse, the ecosystem is still highly integrated: most infrastructures belong to a wider ecosystem of scholarly commons, with privileged interaction through free services (ORCID, Datacite), free software (OJS) or open knowledge projects (Wikidata).

Open science infrastructure became technically feasible after the creation of the World Wide Web. While scientific computing infrastructures have been developed since the 1960s, they were generally inaccessible to their end users. Electronic diffusion of articles, databases and other scientific outputs quickly developed after 1990, which stirred increasing concerns on the sustainability of online research projects. After this initial period of rapid and uncontrolled expansion, the 2000s saw a movement of consolidation, as large projects were able to secure recurrent fundings.

Numerous initiatives have been taken after 2015 to better define, support and protect open science infrastructures, as large commercial publishers have begun acquiring critical common infrastructures such as open repositories. The Principles for Open Scholarly Infrastructure laid influential recommendations on sustainability, collaborative governance and the funding of open infrastructures, based on the theory of common-resource management of Elinor Ostrom. They have influenced in turn major reports, policies and initiatives.

By 2022, major historical scientific infrastructures have endorsed open science as an integral part of their activity and identity. It has become an essential topic of debate for the future of research along with the conversion of the publishing system: in 2021, a collective of researchers called for a Plan I or Plan Infrastructure in reaction to the plan S of the cOAlition S.

Authors: Raza Muhammad Ali
Published: December 2024

In this paper a single-phase differential boost inverter is presented that has two functions, first is boost up and second is active power quadcoupling without adding active power electronics components for smart grid system. There are three operating principals: First is pulse energy modulation which operates converter in continuous conduction mode (CCM), Second is quadcoupler which is designed by adding four boost converters and third is Tripolar technique which used to add two inductors and one capacitor for each boost converter. The proposed model consist of four boost converters in parallel with interleaving switching technique to get lower duty cycle. The energy is delivered to the quadcoupler through tripolar technique. When two grids are connected through DC to AC conversion the boost inverter can increase voltages on required demand. A Simulink model is designed that shows and proves properties of proposed system with high energy, high efficiency and power control with lower voltage stress.

Authors: Hakami Sameera AL- , Hassan Aldoais , Dowman Saida , Nabil Alshwafi
Published: December 2024

The excessive use of pesticides by many farmers, using pesticides that do not belong to public health pesticides in agriculture and Qat production, and the pesticide dealers’ violation of the controls followed in the illegal supply of pesticides in many areas of Yemen, led to major violations in the use of pesticides by farmers and the disposal of pesticides. Improper waste of these pesticides eventually led to the contamination of water bodies and groundwater with many types of pesticides. On the other hand, pesticide residues are disposed of in an improper manner, as pesticide residues are poured into the sewage network and seep into the lower ground layers, which contributes to pollution. Groundwater with pesticides. This study aimed to determine the effect of wastewater on groundwater contamination with pesticides in the northern part of the Sana'a Basin, where 42 samples were collected from groundwater wells along the sewage canal in the study area. Samples were prepared for analysis by extracting water samples using n-Hexane solution, and pesticide residues were analysed using ICP Varian-450 induction plasma (GC-ECD) technology. Four types of pesticides appeared in 5 wells 1, 14, 22, 3 and 33: Tolclovos, Thiamethoxam, and Cypermethrin at concentrations of 0.0040, 0.0014, and 0.0056 ppm, respectively. Lambdacyhalothrin pesticides also appeared in Well 3 and Well 33 at concentrations of 0.000025 and 0.0039 parts per million, respectively. These results indicate that this water is not fit for use due to the resulting health and environmental damage. A comprehensive study of the studied area must be conducted to determine the main causes of pollution, enact strict laws and regulations to reduce pollution, and monitor the condition of groundwater to ensure that no pesticide contamination occurs, since groundwater is the main source of drinking water.

Pastor Miroslav Danys, Doctor of Theology, cherishes the memory of Vydūnas in German town of Detmold for many years, where Vydūnas settled after emigrating from East Prussia in 1946 and spent the last years of his life, and was buried in Detmold. In 1991, he assisted in the exhumation of Vydūnas’ remains and their transfer to the Bitėnai cemetery, near Ramby- nas Hill. At the request of Detmold Mayor Rainer Heller, he translated Vydūnas’ documents into Polish. In the shelter for students at Wiesenstrasse 5 in Detmold, where Vydūnas lived in 1946, he also inspired and contributed a lot to the unveiling of the Vydūnas memorial plaque and initiated the installation of his monument-bust on the facade of the same house in 2012. The memorial sculpture designed by sculptor Lionginas Garla was unveiled and presented to the public on May 10, 2013. In 2017, Miroslav Danys, together with Britta Storost, prepared for publication Vydūnas’ work Sieben HundertJahre deutsch-litauischer Beziehungen.Zum ISO. Geburtstages des Autors (Deutsch) Gebundene Ausgabe (LIT-Verlag, Berlin). Miroslav Danys’ book Vydūnas undDeutscheKultur: Neue Perspektiven zum ISO. 100. Jahrestagder Unabhdn- gigkeitserkldrung Litauens (“Vydūnas and German Culture: New Perspectives Commemoration of the 150th Birthday of the Prussian-Lithuanian Bridge Builder and the 100th Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence of Lithuania”) was published in 2018 in the same publishing house in Berlin. In 2016, pastor Miroslav Danys was awarded the Badge of Honor “Bring your Light and Believe” by the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Lithuania.In 2018, the Prime Minister of the Republic of Lithuania thanked him: “Meaningful activities fill the human soul with joy, and illuminate the being in various colours. Your activity in Vydūnas Society inspires others to live meaningfully, to hear what their hearts say and most importantly - to love those around them. On behalf of the Government of the Republic of Lithuania, I would like to sincerely thank you for your meaningful and socially responsible contribution to taking care of the memory of the Nation’s teacher, philosopher Vydūnas, fostering and popularizing his thoughts not only in Lithuania but also abroad. You are a great example that difficult jobs can be done with enthusiasm and empathy. Happiness and good luck to you!” (Saulius Skvernelis, Vilnius, March 22,2018). Pastor Miroslav Danys is also known as an honorary member of the Vydūnas Society in Germany. This publication is based on a paper presented at the international scientific conference “To See Differently” dedicated to the 150th birth anniversary of the philosopher and creator Vilhelmas Storasta-Vydūnas, which took place at the Museum of Applied Art and Design in Vilnius, on March 22, 2018, and the speech given during the presentation of Vydūnas’ book “Seven Centuries of German-Lithuanian Relations” at the Writers’ Club on September 14, 2017.
Achajiškos deivės: Vydūno dramos ir Marijos Gimbutienės „Senoji Europa“
Authors: Martišiūtė-Linartienė Aušra
Published: December 2024

Vydūnas’ acquaintance with Marija Alseikaitė Gimbutas goes back to Alseikaitė’s childhood, years of studying at the gymnasium and university. Graduating from Kaunas Aušra Gymnasium, Alseikaitė chose a topic about Vydūnas’ idea of “individual self’. She wrote a work on the topic “The Elements of Folklore in Vydūnas’ Creation” at the university, under the supervision of Vincas Mykolaitis-Putinas, in 1939. The testimonies of M. Gimbutas, who became a well-known researcher, about the significance of Vydūnas for the maturity of her personality are important. These biographical details lead to a detailed comparison of the insights of Vydūnas’ creation work and M. Gimbutas’ scientific work, and to the interpretation of Vydūnas’ dramas using the insights of the researcher. The article analyzes the characters in Vydūnas’ dramas “Longing”, “The Waves of Fate”, “Our Victory”, “The Shadows of Ancestors”, “Witch”, “Jūraitė”, and “World Fire”, which are directly related to the goddesses preserved in folklore - Laima, Fairies, Witch, Bird-goddess. It examines the images of these goddesses, their activities and powers, and the attitude of other characters towards them. In Vydūnas’ mysteries and dramas, they show up for some of the characters in archaic, primordial forms, while others see them as demonized, as if affected by the worldviews of later times. Thus, the connections of different folklore and mythological images are important in Vydūnas’ dramas. In Vydūnas’ dramas and Gimbutas’ works the parallels of the approach to the old goddesses are determined by special attention given to folklore as a guardian of ancient myths and worldviews. Keywords: Vydūnas, Marija Gimbutas, the civilization of Old Europe, drama, Fairies, Bird-goddess, Laima, Witch.

Awareness of right-of-way rules at unsignalized intersections: A case study from Isparta, Türkiye
Authors: Kıcı Aydin , Tigdemir Mesut
Published: December 2024

This study aims to measure the level of awareness of the participants living in Isparta, Türkiye, regarding the right-of-way rules at intersections. A questionnaire was prepared to determine the level of awareness of the right-of-way rules, and a sample of 302 randomly selected participants were invited to respond to the questionnaire. In evaluating the results, participants were categorized into three groups based on their awareness levels: low, moderate, and high. When all questions were considered, it was observed that 24% of the participants had a low level of awareness, 54% had a medium level of awareness, and 22% had a high level of awareness. We established that the least known rules included traffic signs related to yielding and stopping, and right-of-way rules in terms of road priority. According to this, it has been concluded that drivers do not fully understand some fundamental right-of-way rules, and this situation can be a significant factor leading to driver-related accidents at uncontrolled intersections. In this paper, we propose that responsible agencies take measures to reduce accidents caused by violations of right-of-way rules.

Fighting Antisemitism: Underground Resistance of the Zionist Youth During the Holocaust in Romania
Authors: Filipovici Anca
Published: December 2024

In 1930s Romania, Zionist youth organizations saw a resurgence amid increasing antisemitism and the global political mobilization of young people. These organizations underwent specific stages, throughout the totalitarian regimes of the Second World War, including a semi-legal period during the beginnings of the oppression, followed by an underground phase from 1942 onwards. This shift occurred when the Jewish Federation was replaced by the Jewish Council (Centrala), a state-controlled entity representing the Jewish community. This paper explores the clandestine Zionist non-armed resistance efforts carried out by youth organizations in Romania from 1942 to 1944, drawing on archives from the Romanian Secret Police (Siguranța). Focusing on the support received from Jewish networks abroad, the discussion highlights the actions of the Gordonia and Dror youth organizations. Notably, members of these groups faced convictions by the Court Martial in 1944 for aiding refugee Jews in crossing the Romanian border and preparing for emigration to Palestine. The argument posits that these acts of defiance constituted a form of Jewish resistance. The overall research endeavour seeks to provide a comprehensive history of Jewish youth activism during tumultuous times – an often-overlooked aspect in the broader narrative of the Holocaust in Romania.
How the Jews of Austria Went to War in 1914
Authors: Rybak Jan
Published: December 2024

When the First World War broke out, Jews in the Habsburg Empire found themselves in a series of overlapping conflicts and crisis – young men were drafted and sent to the front, the Russian army threatened Galicia and Bukovina, Jews’ loyalty was questioned, and the nationalist and imperial rhetoric of the day left little room for ambiguities or second thoughts. This article analyses how Jews responded to the outbreak of the war and its multiple crises, as well as how they aimed to position themselves in the tense weeks of summer 1914. As seemingly every nation and community went to war, Jews needed to take part too. They did so in public assemblies where they recalled the eternal figures of Jewish heroism, through prayers for victory over the Muscovite archenemy of the Jewish people, and by public expressions of loyalty in a space where ‘nation’, ‘empire’, and other (ascribed) categories continuously overlapped and reinforced each other. This article analyses Jewish responses to the outbreak of the war in the Cisleithanian half of the Habsburg monarchy. It thereby not only highlights the interdependence of Jews and wider society, but also suggests that traditional approaches to explain the Jewish experience in the Habsburg lands in the beginning of the Great War ought to be reconsidered.
Calling the Big Brother: Turkish Cypriot Vulnerability and the Geopolitics of Kin-State Intervention
Authors: Koktsidis Pavlos Ioannis
Published: December 2024

This article explores the development of minority and kin-state relations during times of conflict and transition, focusing on the interaction between the Turkish Cypriot ethnic minority and its kin-state Turkey from 1950 to 1974. The study challenges common perceptions that small and vulnerable minorities lack autonomous and effective agency and illustrates the significance of geopolitical drives for kin-state support. The Turkish Cypriot mobilization in the period under investigation provides proof of the effectiveness of minorities mobilizing kin-state support as a means of empowering their domestic security status. The study shows that an accurate grasp of geopolitical correlations, combined with goal-persistence and the willingness to co-opt, have assisted the Turkish Cypriot minority’s bid to entangle Turkey’s geostrategic interests in Cyprus. Essentially, the coupling of Turkish Cypriot calls for protection with Turkey’s broader geostrategic objectives, motivated a relationship of mutual strategic empowerment for the weak ethnic minority and its powerful kin-state. Yet the long-term incongruity of security objectives has significantly reduced the minority’s autonomous agency, inaugurating a new chapter of vulnerability.
TARİHİ SAĞLIK YAPILARININ PEYZAJ RESTORASYONU: HEYBELİADA SANATORYUMU ÖRNEĞİ
Authors: Kaynak Altıngüzgün Havva Gonca , Atik Meryem
Published: December 2024

Sağlık yapıları yalnızca fiziksel sağlığa değil, çevreyle olan ilişkileri sayesinde ruhsal sağlığa da katkıda bulunan mekanlardır. Eski çağlardan itibaren sağlık yapılarında doğa ile iç içe olmaya özen gösterilmiştir. Örneğin, Antik Yunan’da Asklepion tapınakları şifa sunan kutsal mekânlar olarak tasarlanmıştır. Bu tapınaklarda, bitkiler ve su unsurları şifa amacıyla kullanılmıştır. Benzer şekilde, 20. yüzyıl başlarında kurulan sanatoryumlar, özellikle verem gibi hastalıkların tedavisinde doğanın iyileştirici etkisinden faydalanmıştır. Sanatoryumlar, temiz hava ve doğal manzara sağlayan ormanlık alanlara kurulmuş, böylece hastaların çevreyle etkileşimi artırılarak fiziksel ve ruhsal sağlıklarına destek olunmuştur. İstanbul’daki Heybeliada Sanatoryumu da bu yapılardan biridir. Bu çalışmada geçmişten günümüze sağlık yapıları ele alınmış, bu şifa alanlarının peyzaj ile bir bütün olarak önemi ve korunma gerekliliğinden bahsedilmiştir. Bu tarihi değerlerin doğal peyzajlarıyla birlikte korunması, kültürel mirasın sürdürülebilirliğini sağlamada önemli bir rol oynamaktadır.

These traditions demonstrate the integration of art, drama, and philosophy into healing, emphasizing sensory engagement and the individual’s socio-cultural context, unlike the predominantly individualistic focus of psychodynamic models. This essay argues for a more inclusive definition of psychotherapy that incorporates diverse cultural approaches and recognises the influence of social space and power relations on healing. Drawing on an ethnographic study of Chinese migration in Jamaica, the essay highlights the complex interplay of self and identity in mental health across cultures. To achieve true inclusivity, psychotherapy must integrate intercultural perspectives and practices.

Indonesia has faced extensive poor soil quality and health for years.Anthropogenic, climatic, and plant pathogenic activities are the major contributing factors that degrade the soil's essential life-supporting system, such as the functional gene pool. One such gene is the rhizobacterial acdS, which codes for synthesizing the ACC (1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate) deaminase that cleaves ACC as an ethylene hormone precursor in the stressed plant growing under stressful conditions. This study aims to investigate the abundance of the acdS gene in different abiotic and biotic stressors of the rhizospheric soil of pineapple plantation area that has been exposed incidentally to herbicides, flooding, and pathogenic Phytophthora spp infections. Soil samples were collected by using simple randomized sampling. A quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR)-based method was applied to assess the gene abundance. This study reveals that the abundance of acdS in the rhizospheric soil of herbicide-treated and Phytophthora-infected symptomatic plants is relatively lower than that of non-treated ones. The highest abundance was found in the Phytophthora-infected soil of asymptomatic plants. However, there was no significant difference in abundance between the fflooded rhizospheric soil TO rhizospheric soil of flooded-exposed plants and the non-exposed ones. Hopefully, this data will help us better understand proper land-use management practices for pineapple plants.

Croton lechleri (dragon's blood) is a forest species used by traditional Amazonian communities for medicinal purposes, with potential for use in degraded area recovery and as a source of additional income for some communities. However, silvicultural studies on this species are scarce. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of substrates and shading levels on seedling emergence and initial development of C. lechleri seedlings. A completely randomized statistical design with four replications was used, arranged in a 7 x 5 factorial setup (substrates and shading levels). The variables analyzed were seedling emergence, emergence speed index, relative emergence frequency, root and shoot length, root and shoot dry mass, stem diameter, and leaf count. Alternative substrates composed of carbonized rice husk and commercial substrate at all shading levels studied favored the emergence and emergence speed index of C. lechleri seedlings. In the 80% shade environment, the substrate consisting of forest topsoil + aged chicken manure (3:1) proved suitable for post-emergence seedling development of C. lechleri.

A Geoestatística é uma área da ciência que aborda a espacialidade dos dados, com aplicações em diversos campos, como o ambiental, biológico, epidemiológico, agropecuário, entre outros. Essa técnica utiliza o semivariograma para detectar a dependência espacial de fenômenos. Comumente, a Geoestatística emprega um preditor pontual. Contudo, neste trabalho é explorado outro tipo de preditor, específico para uma região, denominado krigagem de blocos, que tem como objetivo predizer o valor médio do fenômeno na área de estudo. O avanço da krigagem de blocos apresenta potencial para solucionar problemas de predição de médias em diferentes contextos, como estimativas de produção agrícola, quantificação de blocos de mineração ou qualquer outra situação que exija a obtenção de valores médios de uma variável aleatória, considerando sua espacialidade. A krigagem de blocos facilita a estimação da media espacial, criando então um estimador sem viés, com não tendenciosidade e variância mínima, o que torna diferente de outros estimadores para médias relacionadas ao espaço.

The study was carried out at the second research station of the College of Agriculture, Al-Muthanna University. The purpose was to investigate the impact of different amounts of nano-NPK fertilizer and biochar on the availability and concentration of NPK in wheat plants, as well as their growth and yield. The experiment was conducted using a mixed soil. The experiment involved the application of five different concentrations of nano-NPK fertilizer, which were labeled as follows: (A0) Control treatment,(A1) Full recommendation of traditional agrarian NPK, (A2) 2/1 recommendation of traditional agrarian NPK + 2/1 recommendation of nano-NPK, (A3) Full recommendation of nano-NPK + 2/1 recommendation of traditional agrarian NPK, (A4) Double recommendation of nano-NPK + 2/1 recommendation of traditional agrarian NPK. There are four levels of biochar represented by the symbols (B0:0%), (B1:1%), (B2: 2%), and (B3: 3%). The addition was based on the measurement of the volume of dry soil. A factorial experiment was conducted using a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three repetitions. The averages were compared using the least significant difference (L.S.D) test. With a significance threshold of 0.05. The findings demonstrated substantial variations in the effects of incorporating different amounts of spraying with nano-NPK fertilizer and biochar, as well as their interaction, on plant height, flag leaf area, chlorophyll index, number of tillers, thousand grain weight, and grain yield.

Funkcjonowanie rad rodziców w systemie oświaty
Authors: Sjargi Daniel
Published: December 2024

W publikacji omówiono temat rad rodziców. Autor książki wyjaśnia najważniejsze zagadnienia prawne i uzupełnia je kontekstem historycznym i pedagogicznym. Przedstawia fakty i stanowiska także w pozaprawnych aspektach.

Istotna część pracy porusza zagadnienia cywilistyczne – niemożliwe było ich pominięcie, gdyż jedynie podejmując analizę całości systemu prawa, można dojść do uzasadnionych interpretacji przepisów prawa odnoszących się do rad rodziców. Nie bez znaczenia dla podjęcia zagadnień cywilistycznych była również historia ewolucji instytucji i organizacji rodzicielskich w dwudziestoleciu międzywojennym i w okresie Polskiej Rzeczypospolitej Ludowej, kiedy to przedstawicielstwa rodziców miały inny charakter prawny i cechowały się szerszymi uprawnieniami w obrocie prywatnym.
Rotations dérisoires ? Toupies, sabots et pirouettes (XIIIe-XVe siècles)
Authors: Mussou Amandine
Published: December 2024

En étudiant l’inscription littérale, les usages métaphoriques et les divers types de discours tenus sur les toupies dans les textes écrits en français entre le XIIIe et le XVe siècle, cet article a pour objectif d’interroger la façon dont les représentations littéraires se saisissent d’un jouet bien attesté dans la culture matérielle médiévale. L’enquête montre que la simplicité de cet objet en apparence futile et dérisoire favorise une grande plasticité discursive et graphique, qui met la pensée en mouvement.
L’historiographie bourguignonne dans le fonds ancien de la Bibliothèque municipale de Lille
Authors: Devaux Jean
Published: December 2024

Le fonds patrimonial de la Médiathèque Jean Lévy à Lille, qu’il s’agisse des manuscrits ou des imprimés anciens, recèle un nombre appréciable d’ouvrages pleinement représentatifs de la production historiographique qui fleurit au fil du XVe siècle à la cour de Bourgogne. Le présent article a pour objectif de mettre en exergue les spécificités de ces volumes, dus à la plume de George Chastelain, Jean Molinet, Enguerrand de Monstrelet et Olivier de la Marche. De même qu’ils traduisent l’intérêt durable du lectorat régional pour ce type de récit, ces témoins permettent de rendre compte, plus largement, des modalités de diffusion d’un tel corpus, qui, grâce aux soins attentifs des copistes et des premiers éditeurs, a été transmis à la postérité.
