Published: December 2019

Objective:

The aim of the present study is to examine the phytochemical components and
the biological activities of the whole parts of Onobrychis crista-galli (L.) Lam. growing in Algeria.

Methods:

The structures of the isolated compounds 1-15 were elucidated using different spectroscopic
methods and by comparison with literature data. The biological evaluation of the plant was
determined by the in vitro antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. The antioxidant activity of
various extracts (petroleum ether, ethyl acetate, and n-butanol) and some isolated flavonoids was assessed
by using five different test systems, namely, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazil (DPPH), 2,2’-
azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS), cupric reducing antioxidant capacity (CUPRAC),
superoxide alkaline DMSO, and β-carotene/linoleic acid tests. In addition, the total phenolic
and flavonoid contents of the extracts were determined as gallic acid and quercetin equivalents, respectively.
In vitro anti-inflammatory activity by protein denaturation was measured for all extracts.

Results:

Phytochemical investigation of the ethyl acetate and n-butanol extracts of Onobrychis crista-
galli led to the isolation for the first time of fifteen known compounds. The present study reports
for the first time the isolation and identification of fifteen known compounds from this species. The
ethyl acetate extract had rich phenolic content indicating (31.09 ± 0.40 mg gallic acid equivalents/g
of fresh weight), while n-butanol extract displayed a high content in flavonoid compounds
(60.70±0.7 mg quercetin equivalents/ g of fresh weight). This investigation indicated that the ethyl
acetate extract of O. crista-galli showed the highest antioxidant activity (IC50= 17.13±0.51 μg/mL,
DPPH), (IC50= 82.99±2.50 μg/mL, ABTS), and (A0.50= 94.67±0.41 μg/mL, CUPRAC), (IC50=
97.09±2.20 μg/mL, DMSO), (IC50: 36.73±1.17 μg/mL, β-carotene/linoleic acid). Furthermore, the
compound luteolin 5-methyl ether (14) exhibited a good antioxidant activity in DPPH (IC50= 06.05 ±
0.15 μg /mL) and CUPRAC (A0.5= 12.57 ± 0.34 μg /mL) assays. Moreover, the ethyl acetate and nbutanol
extracts of O. crista-galli evidenced a good to moderate in vitro anti-inflammatory activity.

Conclusion:

The extracts of the whole plant of O. crista-galli (L.) Lam. showed potent antioxidant
and anti-inflammatory activities.
MÉTODO E APLICAÇÕES DA ABORDAGEM DIREITO E POLÍTICAS PÚBLICAS (DPP)
Authors: Bucci Maria Paula Dallari
Published: December 2019

A despeito da multiplicação de trabalhos relacionando Direito e Políticas Públicas, a falta de uma abordagem estruturada limita o desenvolvimento do conhecimento acumulado, reverberando a dispersão de ângulos de visão e temáticas (seção 1). Esse limite enseja reflexão sobre questões de método para a abordagem Direito e Políticas Públicas (DPP), seu objeto, em vista de que sujeito. Superá-lo pressupõe referências comuns e procedimentos de pesquisa generalizáveis, que façam sentido para uma comunidade de pesquisadores e lhe permitam evoluir como conjunto (seção 2). O objeto da abordagem DPP constitui a ação estatal nas políticas públicas, ação governamental coordenada e em escala ampla sobre problemas complexos. Examina-se bibliografia estrangeira específica sobre Direito e Políticas Públicas, dos anos 1990, momento em que essa conexão surge (seção 3). Em seguida, revisa-se o sentido das políticas públicas na construção do Estado social brasileiro pós-1988, refutando que se trate de expediente de despolitização que se desvia das transformações estruturais necessárias à quebra do subdesenvolvimento (seção 4). Finalmente, mapeiam-se aptidões analíticas como base para uma matriz de métodos, em três vertentes: 1) temas mais afeitos à abordagem DPP, tais como questões de direito material e organização jurídica próprias dos direitos sociais (educação, saúde, assistência social, segurança etc.), infra-estrutura, problemas urbanos e outras; 2) padrões de controle jurídico de políticas públicas que vêm sendo desenvolvidos por magistratura, Ministério Público, Advocacia Pública, Defensoria Pública e Tribunais de Contas; 3) combinações da abordagem DPP com os campos disciplinares tradicionais, como Direito Administrativo, Constitucional e Processual (seção 5).
QUADRO DE PROBLEMAS DE POLÍTICAS PÚBLICAS: UMA FERRAMENTA PARA ANÁLISE JURÍDICO-INSTITUCIONAL
Authors: Ruiz Isabela , Bucci Maria Paula Dallari
Published: December 2019

Este artigo tem como objetivo apresentar uma proposta de método para identificar e descrever problemas de políticas públicas. Partindo da abordagem Direito e Políticas Públicas (DPP), que procura compreender a estruturação jurídica dos programas de ação governamental em seu contexto político-institucional, e considerando que há limitações do Quadro de Referência de uma Política Pública (BUCCI, 2015) para a análise de programas não estruturados ou em processo de estruturação, este artigo propõe uma ferramenta complementar de sistematização de informações para análises jurídico-institucionais de situações-problema relativas aos programas de ação governamental. O método proposto sugere meios para a identificação dos grupos de interesse, processos decisórios e instituições implicadas no objeto de análise, com o fim de identificar e delimitar os aspectos mais relevantes e característicos para o estudo jurídico de um problema público, visando à ação prospectiva.

ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGIES FOR INDIVIDUALS WITH VISUAL IMPAIRMENT: CONTRIBUTION OF DESIGN IN THE FIELD OF CLOTHING
Authors: Süller Zor Başak , VURUŞKAN Arzu
Published: December 2019

According to data of World Health Organization, it was estimated that 253
million were  visually impaired worldwide
in 2017 (WHO, 2017). For those with moderate to total
blindness and visual impairment, daily activities such as mobility,
communication, education, clothing and shopping cannot be carried out
independently. Assistive technologies (AT) offer solutions to contribute to the
quality of life of those with visual impairments. Considering the daily
obstacles faced by such individuals, as a prior step for
design development of alternative ATs, this paper includes an overview of ATs. Since
this overview addresses a lack of applications in clothing related AT, the
following survey aims to acquire feedback from people with visual impairment,
focusing on clothing related issues, with the aim of  making improvements in design.
Characteristics, Opportunities, and Challenges of Osteopathy (COCO) in the Perceptions of Osteopaths in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland: Protocol for a Comprehensive Mixed Methods Study (Preprint)
Authors: Porthun Jan , Manschel Jonas
Published: December 2019

BACKGROUND

Currently, the importance of osteopathy within the health care system is controversial. The training structures and the acknowledgment of the occupational profile strongly differ in the German-speaking territory.

OBJECTIVE

This study aims to examine the characteristics of the osteopathic profession as well as the possibilities and challenges for osteopaths in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.

METHODS

This study adopted a mixed methods design. The research topic will be examined based on qualitative and quantitative partial studies that will be conducted in parallel as well as sequentially. By applying different research methods and sample testing and by using standardized, validated measurement methods, we expect to be able to gain new insights into the work area of osteopathy.

RESULTS

In November 2018, we started the research and data collection. Currently, we are conducting the first two partial studies. The planned duration of each of the partial study is 6-9 months. The project is scheduled to be completed in 2021.

CONCLUSIONS

This study will examine how osteopaths define themselves in comparison with professionals from other occupational profiles and how they describe the characteristics of their work. The identification of central issues is expected to help clarify the issues and define the profession. As such, the results might contribute to the conservation and improvement of the quality of osteopathic treatment.
Mortalidad intraurbana, envejecimiento y marginación en Hermosillo, Sonora, 2013-2016
Authors: Reyes-Castro Pablo Alejandro
Published: December 2019

El objetivo de este estudio es analizar la distribución espacial intraurbana de la mortalidad por área de residencia y su asociación con condiciones de marginación y envejecimiento poblacional en Hermosillo, Sonora, en el periodo 2013-2016. Por medio de información proveniente de certificados de defunción y censal, se realizó un análisis espacial exploratorio de la mortalidad de acuerdo con tres grandes grupos de causas de muerte. El análisis se limitó a la mortalidad y dejó pendiente el componente de morbilidad. Los resultados evidenciaron la fuerte asociación entre la distribución espacial de la mortalidad bruta por enfermedad crónica y el envejecimiento poblacional. Así mismo se evidenció la autosegregación espacial que ejercen los residentes de zonas del nivel más bajo de marginación, quienes tienen mayor capacidad para evitar la muerte por cualquier tipo de causa. Los hallazgos muestran los efectos de la segregación espacial residencial de tipo socioeconómico y demográfico sobre los perfiles de mortalidad en los entornos urbanos.

In this study, we consider the ways different degrees of dissent are established in interaction, especially in interactions among children. One important aspect in the development of the ability to argue is the framing of interactions as rather cooperative or agonistic. Different framings seem to allow for different forms of argumentative activity. The focus in this paper is on the mediation of degrees of dissensus in argumentation in child-child communication. It is established, we argue, through verbal as well as non-verbal means, and the agonistic and cooperativity can be indicators for the space argumentation has in child-child interaction.
Emotions in Argumentative Narration
Authors: Cigada Sara
Published: December 2019

This paper studies emotional inferencing triggered by emotion terms using Pragma-Dialectics and the Argumentum Model of Topics. The corpus, in French, is an excerpt of a video-recorded testimony in which a middle school teacher evokes her experience of being in class the day after the Charlie Hebdo attack, thus presenting a case of argumentation in context. The analysis focuses on the argumentative structure and on the rhetorical strategies that trigger emotional inferencing. The emotional inferencing derives from a Locus of Ontological Implication, which links a situation and an emotion (and vice-versa), while the culture-bound elements tend to be part of the endoxon.
Tense Arguments
Authors: Plantin Christian
Published: December 2019

Tension is a major issue in the analysis of argumentative discourse in ordinary language. Tension is an operator showing that the speaker is highly involved in her speech, and wants to share her commitments, that is, wants to persuade her audience. This paper proposes a case study of an extremely tense and controversial argument with strong anti-Semitic undertones (§2). The following sections examine the main components of tension: (§3) radicalization of arguments; (§4) exclamations; (§5) rhetorical questions; (§6) emotions. Tension is interpreted as a verdictive operator resisting refutation.
Halochromic properties and antimicrobial potential of crude extracts from five species of ornamental plants
Authors: Kusimo Michael O. , Ukoha Henry , Oludare Aderonke , Afolabi Oluwatoyin , Agwae Matthew
Published: December 2019

Introduction: the colours of flowers are a result of secondary metabolites that have long been used in the medical and textile industries, and those that are halochromic are used in colour display because they change color according to pH changes, but many species are yet to be studied in detail. Objective: to explore the halochromic properties and the antimicrobial potentials of the crude extracts of several ornamental plants. Methods: we used aqueous and organic solvents to extract pigments from petals of five fascinating flowers planted around International Institute of Tropical Agriculture station, Cotonou, Benin: Allamanda blanchetii, Cascabela thevetia, Eichhornia crassipes, Ixora casei and Thunbergia erecta, followed by an investigation into their halochromic properties. Antibacterial potentials of the extracts were tested on important rice pathogens: Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae, and Pantoea agglomerans, which are gram-negative bacteria; and on Bacillus subtilis, a gram-positive bacterium. Results: The crude extracts of T. erecta and A. blanchetii have good halochromic properties within pH 2 – 12, exhibiting distinct colours. The chromophores of the C. thevetia, E. crassipes, and I. casei are not halochromic as the colours of the crude extracts remain the same at the pH range except pH 12 which is similar for the five extracts. Crude extracts of T. erecta inhibited growth of P. agglomerans without development of resistance, whereas the bacteria developed resistance against Penicillin after 18 hrs of incubation. T. erecta and A. blanchetii were able to inhibit growth of X. oryzae and both inhibited B. subtilis. Conclusion: Pigments from both T. erecta and A. blanchetii are good pH indicators; however, T. erecta is a better antibacterial agent than A. blanchetii because it has broad-spectrum activities against bacteria.
Perceptions of the use and value of fungi by two groups of young adults from Central America
Authors: Rojas Alvarado Carlos , Molina-Murillo Sergio , Doss Robin G.
Published: December 2019

Introduction: Integrated efforts for the management and conservation of natural resources require the availability of socio-cultural information. However, perceptional studies are rarely used along with biological data to design methodologies of biodiversity conservation. Objective: To explore the potential of perceptional information on fungi as a tool for developing culture-sensitive methods of management and conservation. Methods: Through a survey-based design, ethnomycological information from urban settings in Honduras and Costa Rica was collected and evaluated for a group of young adults (16-25 years old, N=615 surveys). Results: Fungi were not perceived to have the value of plants and animals, in both countries. The latter were mentioned as preferred by 74% of respondents. By country, 39% of Costa Ricans mentioned the most important use of fungi to be food, whereas 58% of Hondurans responded a medicinal application. Remarkably, 27% of respondents in Costa Rica mentioned that fungi are important in ecological processes, much higher than Hondurans with only 7%. Conclusions: Exposure to formal education or previous cultural background may not play such an important role in shaping perceptions of the group of fungi as it does social aspects associated with the city lifestyle in the populations studied.

ANÁLISE DO COMPORTAMENTO DA F0 EM ENUNCIADOS NUMÉRICOS DE CPF NO PORTUGUÊS BRASILEIRO
Authors: Santos de Almeida Ayane Nazarela , Oliveira Jr Miguel
Published: December 2019

O presente artigo objetiva analisar o comportamento da frequência fundamental (f0) na elocução de agrupamentos numéricos de CPF (código de pessoa física) no português do Brasil. Investiga a forma mais recorrente para números de CPF a partir de características prosódicas específicas que se revelam na segmentação dos agrupamentos e caracteriza as unidades prosódicas constituindo evidências de que os números nominais apresentam uma estrutura bem definida. Todos os dados utilizados nesse experimento são reais no intuito de prezar pela apresentação original objetivando testar a relação entre a disposição gráfica e a forma enunciada. Motivados pela literatura (SWERTS, 1997; OLIVEIRA JR, 2000; OUDEN, 2004), selecionamos para a análise as variáveis prosódicas de variação da f0, declínio da f0 e diferença de tom. Verificamos que foi recorrente o tom de fronteira alto marcando as fronteiras prosódicas e baixo no final do enunciado; que houve uma declinação da f0 no interior das unidades prosódicas e esta foi ainda mais significativa ao considerarmos o enunciado como um todo. Tais resultados nos levaram a concluir que os números de CPF, produzidos de forma espontânea, são integrados a uma estrutura subjacente e que ao fazerem uso sistemático de vários elementos prosódicos, os falantes tratam os agrupamentos numéricos da mesma forma que enunciados declarativos típicos em termos de sua estrutura prosódica.

Effects of unpleasant odors on emotion recognition: The right hemisphere and valence-specific hypotheses
Authors: Stankovic Milos , Nesic Milkica , Milic Jana
Published: December 2019

The right hemisphere has traditionally been considered as dominant in odor and emotion perception, whereas little is known about odor influence on emotion recognition. This study aimed to examine a possible difference in the recognition of basic emotions presented to the left or the right visual field following short-term left or right nostril treatment with an unpleasant odor. A total of 60 right-handed female participants completed an emotion recognition task in conditions of the right and left nostril treatment with an unpleasant odor (isovaleric acid). Results showed the right hemisphere advantage in speed, but not in the accuracy of basic emotion recognition after the right nostril treatment with an unpleasant odor, while the left nostril treatment had no effect. The right hemisphere and valence-specific hypotheses in emotion recognition were not confirmed, whereas the model of the right hemisphere dominance in odor perception was confirmed.
What characteristics in the youth labour market of Serbia are likely to result in employment?
Authors: Pavlovic Dejana , Bjelica Dragan , Domazet Ivana
Published: December 2019

In stark contrast to certain EU member countries, Serbia faces a high youth unemployment rate of over 30% (34.9% in 2016, 32.8% in 2017 and 31% in 2018). This paper provides a logistic regression analysis of what characteristics among youth (15-30 years of age) contribute to the likelihood of their employment in Serbia. While youth is internationally defined as being between the ages of 15-24, this paper broadens it to 15-30, as it is defined in Serbia (RS) for the purposes of youth employment/unemployment and for the country?s ?National Youth Strategy from 2015 to 2025.? The study was conducted using micro data from the Labour Force Survey provided on request from the Statistical Office of the Republic of Serbia. The indicators that affect whether a young person will be employed or not are: the financial background of the participant?s household, earnings, age, gender, and total years of work experience. Theoretically, although it may be anticipated that unemployed individuals who have greater work experience find it easier to find a job, employment does seem to automatically generate longer working hours. The results of the research are both practical and scientific, as they may not only assist policy-makers in the process of writing strategies on youth employment, but also bear groundwork for further study.
Using Fixed Wages for Management Control: An Intra-Firm Test of the Effect of Relative Compensation on Performance
Authors: Hesford James W. , Mangin Nicolas , Pizzini Mina
Published: December 2019

Efficiency wage theory predicts employers can elicit better employee performance ex post by paying higher fixed compensation ex ante, relative to the market wage. Relative compensation may thereby constitute an alternative control mechanism when performance-based compensation is difficult to implement. Using proprietary data from 436 hotels in a U.S. lodging chain, we find that relative compensation is positively associated with performance, and additional profits associated with higher compensation exceed the wage increase. Relative compensation has a larger impact on profit when tasks are more complex and a smaller impact on profit, revenue, and quality when chain monitoring is stronger. Finally, the magnitude of the relation between relative compensation and financial performance (nonfinancial) is larger (the same) for employees earning more than the median wage compared with those earning less. Overall, our results are consistent with assertions that higher relative compensation attracts more capable candidates and mitigates shirking, but provide little support for reciprocity.

Does Indigenous Knowledge Occur in and Influence Impact Assessment Reports? Exploring Consultation Remarks in Three Cases of Mining Projects in Greenland
Authors: Dahl Parnuna Petrina Egede , Hansen Anne Merrild
Published: December 2019

Mineral extraction is pursued in Greenland to strengthen the national economy. In order that new industries promote sustainable development, environmental impact assessments and social impact assessments are legally required and undertaken by companies prior to license approval to inform decision-making. Knowledge systems in Arctic indigenous communities have evolved through adaptive processes over generations, and indigenous knowledge (IK) is considered a great source of information on local environments and related ecosystem services. In Greenland the Inuit are in the majority, and Greenlanders are still considered indigenous. The Inuit Circumpolar Council stresses that utilizing IK is highly relevant in the Greenland context. Impact assessment processes involve stakeholder engagement and public participation, and hence offer arenas for potential knowledge sharing and thereby the utilization of IK. Based on the assumption that IK is a valuable knowledge resource, which can supplement and improve impact assessments in Greenland thus supporting sustainable development, this paper presents an investigation of how IK is utilized in the last stages of an impact assessment process when the final report is subject to a hearing in three recent mining projects in Greenland.

This study aims to prove that papaya seed extract has the potential to improve muscle cell atrophy in diabetic conditions. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) animal model were made with conditions similar to type 2 DM in humans i.e. with long-term (56 days) high sugar (fructose) consumption. Then, the next 14 days were treated with papaya seed extract at the dose of 100, 200, and 300 mg/kg BW orally. Body weight and blood glucose levels were monitored throughout the study period. At the end of the study, histopathological examination of gastrocnemius skeletal muscle tissue was carried out using hematoxylin-eosin staining and measuring myocyte cell area. Results showed that there is a correlation between blood glucose levels with the area of muscle cells which explains that the decrease in blood glucose levels is in line with the increase in the area of muscle fiber cells. In the diabetic group and the treatment group the dose of 100 mg/kg BW has a smaller area, whereas in the treatment group the dose of 200 and 300 mg/kg BW has an area close to the area of the muscle cell in the normal group. This is supported by the results of measurements of the area of muscle fiber cells observed through cross sections and measured at the end of this study. The treatment group at the dose of 200 and 300 mg/kg BW did not have significant difference (P>0.05) compared to the normal group. It can be concluded that papaya seed extract therapy at the dose of 200 and 300 mg/kg BW on diabetic rats can reduce the fasting blood glucose levels so that it can ameliorate cell atrophy in the diabetic conditions.
Portfolios come full circle in the world of work

Electronic portfolios become increasingly visible in the workplace. Students graduate with portfolios and are in a good position to continue with portfolio practices. Additionally, organizational or professional competency frameworks and registration requirements lend themselves to be evidenced by portfolios. Waitematā District Health Board, the largest in Aotearoa New Zealand, piloted an electronic portfolio at the end of 2018 with 90 nurses and started implementing the new ePortfolio organisation-wide for nurses in 2019.

In this presentation, we will provide an overview of the pilot and position it within the organisation's commitment to learning and development. We will outline the advantages for all involved: nurses, peers, managers, and assessors, and discuss the challenges and future directions for the initiative.

Early results indicate that the portfolios allow for a shift in conversation with staff and in the development of practice. They encourage nurses to consider additional training and studies to advance in their careers and have the evidence available to discuss with their manager to set clear goals.

The nurses go full circle: They started out with their studies, became professionals, and are going back to university for postgraduate studies documenting their learning in portfolios along the way. Portfolios in this context support lifelong learning and make that learning visible to the individual nurses and their organisation.
“LITTLE ARISTOTLE” - ETHICAL VIRTUES WORKSHOP
Authors: GHINEA Laura
Published: December 2019

Little Aristotle - Ethical Virtues Workshop. Inspired by Nicomachean Ethics, the project aims to seed virtuous consistent attitudes in children, as part of their moral enculturation process, understood as a coherent set of knowledge, criteria, and capacities of moral judgment. Character’s dispositions like courage, generosity, friendship, correctness or gentleness were aimed to be cultivated by activating non-formal educational methods, anchored in real life and adapted to children’s stage of development. The activities and conclusions of this workshop are presented in this article, which the main purpose is to find a place for Aristotelian ethics in nowadays moral education for children, to highlight the need for an appropriate moral pedagogy, that takes into account children’s capacities of understanding and to inspire ethicists and moral trainers in their work.
THE HEAD OF JANUS: HERMENEUTICS AND DECONSTRUCTION IN GADAMER AND DERRIDA BETWEEN AGREEMENT AND DISAGREEMENT
Authors: VENEZIA Simona
Published: December 2019

The Head of Janus: Hermeneutics and Deconstruction in Gadamer and Derrida between Agreement and Disagreement. The paper aims to discuss the complexity of the relationship between Gadamer’s Hermeneutics and Derrida’s Deconstruction in order to remove the usual opposition between these two thinkers and their philosophical perspectives. It is possible to build a collaboration against every idealistic and subjectivist foundation moving from the hermeneutic-deconstructive interaction between the concepts of identity and difference, understanding and sense, writing and reading etc. Only in this way can the so-called improbable debate become an un-interrupted dialogue: the distance ceases to be an insuperable obstacle and becomes an openness of sense.
LEFTIST CRITIQUE OR FIGHT FOR DEMOCRACY? ‟CONTIMPORANUL” COVERING THE TRIAL FROM DEALUL SPIRII
Authors: FAUR Emilia
Published: December 2019

Leftist Critique or Fight for Democracy? Contimporanul Covering the Trial from Dealul Spirii. The general knowledge about the political dimension of the Romanian historical avant-garde places the groups on the left of the political spectrum. However, there is little work on what this means precisely when it comes to the concrete historical situations. It may well be that Contimporanul, the main press organ of the avant-garde supported a political agenda of socialist origin, but what does it mean specifically? In order to give a complete historical-intellectual picture of the Romanian avant-garde, specifically of Contimporanul, one must also account for the first couple of years of its appearance, when it published a large number of political opinion articles, written mainly by the same authors that would become central for the artistic movement as well. We aim to fill this gap in the scholar writings by giving a detailed account of the reactions found in the pages of Contimporanul related to the political events of that time, notably those that involved the socialist movement. The case in point is the Trial of Dealul Spirii and the alleged political assassinations against socialist leaders committed or condoned by the state authorities. The overall image of the political ideology of Contimporanul from those years shows rather a marked democratic attitude towards the events, and a great deal of journalistic objectivity behind the attacks against the liberal establishment.
THE LIMITS OF THE FORMAL TREATMENT OF LANGUAGE
Authors: GERGELY P. Alpár
Published: December 2019

The Limits of the Formal Treatment of Language. Within the philosophy of language, there is a distinction between the natural language philosophers and the ideal language philosophers. The distinction is drawn based on the way these philosophers reflect on language and the world. Natural language philosophers stress the context-based feature of meaning, while the ideal language philosophers emphasize the context-free feature of meaning. In my study I want to show that that even within the formal study of language, in the apparent absence of any context, the notions of valuation and interpretation help us to understand the meaning of sentences.
THE ADVENTURE OF THE IMAGE THROUGH THE CONFLICT OF INTERPRETATIONS
Authors: ARIEȘAN Ramona Nicoleta
Published: December 2019

The Adventure of the Image Through the Conflict of Interpretations. Starting from the self-image, through the image adventure landscape seen as an ensemble of conflict of interpretation, not only from a single glance or direction, whether it is evasive or complex, we follow our decipherment and transformation, be it process or state. Through multiple hypostases, whether isolated or open, I will focus on certain details that will be addressed as a dimension by means of text or material reproduction, or through the passage of the same image we face each time through the filter of our own existence. We stop the other or ourselves against the other, thus removing the observer or viewer, thus providing not only distinct perspectives on the same subject or the same situation or even the same consequences, but also giving him the opportunity to choose how to relate to the internal and external environment, thus convincing that, to a lesser extent, or greater, he is the one who drives everything. This approach is based not only on the adventure of self-image in the archive of own experiences but also from the outside, from the archive of common experiences perceived by other people.
PHYLOGENY COMMANDS PSYCHOGENESIS
Authors: COULARDEAU Jacques
Published: December 2019

Phylogeny Commands Psychogenesis. To learn a foreign language necessarily remaps the learning of the first languages in children. I will first study the necessary stages in the learning of the first language. The mind’s development contributes to the mastering of the first language, which, in turn, is also beneficial to the mind. To teach a second language to a monolingual child challenges the mental construction of his first language and forces the child to restructure his mind, constructed, to this point, by and for the first language. Some pedagogical shortcuts can produce mistakes. To learn a second language is to reactivate the phylogeny of language, particularly of the first and second languages concerned, and this reactivated phylogeny must be invested into the psychogenesis of language, particularly of the first and second languages concerned.
REZUMAT. Filogenia activează psihogeneza. Învățarea unei limbi străine redesenează harta învățării limbii materne de către copii. Voi aborda în primul rând etapele necesare în procesul de învățare a limbii materne. Dezvoltarea gândirii contribuie la achiziția limbii materne și reciproc. Procesul de a învăța un copil monolingv o a doua limbă repune în discuție construcția mentală a limbii sale materne și obligă copilul să-și restructureze gândirea constituită, până atunci, prin și pentru limba maternă. Unele metode pedagogice prea rapide se pot solda cu eșecuri. A învăța o a doua limbă înseamnă a reactiva filogenia unei limbi, în special a celei primare și a celei secundare în cauză, iar această filogenie reactivată trebuie investită în psihogeneza limbii, în special a celei primare și a celei secundare pe care le implică procesul de învățare.
