The Effect of Trade Openness and Political Fragility on Foreign Direct Investment
Authors: Wardani Dyah Titis Kusuma
Published: January 2025

This study examines the influence of trade openness and political fragility on Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) inflows in six ASEAN countries: Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam, over the period from 2013 to 2022. Trade openness is analyzed as a critical economic factor that can attract FDI by facilitating international trade and reducing barriers. Political fragility represents the political dimension, reflecting how instability and weak governance can deter foreign investors. Additional economic factors considered include market size, interest rates, and infrastructure, while crime rates represent the social dimension affecting investment decisions. Secondary data were sourced from the World Bank, Numbeo, and The Fund for Peace. Panel data regression analysis was conducted using Ordinary Least Squares (OLS), and the Common Effect Model was selected. The results reveal that trade openness has a positive and significant impact on FDI inflows, emphasizing the importance of liberal trade policies in attracting foreign investment. Conversely, political fragility negatively and significantly affects FDI, highlighting that political instability can undermine investor confidence. Market size and interest rates also positively influence FDI, while infrastructure and crime rates have a negative effect. These findings suggest that governments aiming to boost FDI should prioritize enhancing trade openness and addressing political fragility by fostering stable political environments and effective governance.

Published: January 2025

Objectives This study analyzed the characteristics and types of discrimination experiences experienced by adolescents, and the effects of discrimination experiences focusing on domestic literature.
Methods The literature on the impact of discrimination experiences on adolescents (middle and high school students) was searched, and nine documents finally selected among the documents published from January 2019 to January 2024 were synthesized and analyzed through an integrated review and qualitative evaluation.
Results The experiences of discrimination set as variables in the selected research literature were school violence damage experience, discrimination damage experience, cyber violence damage experience, discrimination sighting experience, appearance discrimination, and gender discrimination, and were found to act as influencing factors among these variables. It was found that discrimination experiences also affect depression, suicidal thoughts, and other mental health.
Conclusions It was confirmed that adolescents' experiences of discrimination had an important influence on the development process of growth, and policy proposals and inclusive culture creation were presented to protect them.
Pre-service English teachers’ perceptions of World Englishes: Focusing on a Case of University A in Kyungnam
Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Park Eunsoo
Published: January 2025

Objectives The 2022 revised English curriculum defines English as a means of communication used by global citizens and aims to develop the ability to communicate in English with people from different linguistic and cultural backgrounds. This study aims to provide foundational data for improving the curriculum of English teacher training programs by investigating the perceptions of English education majors at a teacher's college regarding English as a global language.
Methods To achieve this, 111 students from the English Education Department of a teacher's college in Kyungnam province participated in the study. Data was collected through questionnaires. To understand the overall perceptions of the students, means and response distributions were compared. T-tests and ANOVA were conducted to examine differences according to background variables, and Scheffé post-hoc tests were performed for further analysis.
Results Among the students, 98.2% and 95.5% respectively responded that English serves as a common language in the international community. Regarding World Englishes, slightly more than half (54% and 60.3%) of the students responded that it is possible to communicate in English even if it is not from an English-speaking country, and that they do not have a negative perception of English used by people from non-English-speaking countries. In particular, the majority of students responded that wolrd Englishes is not incorrect English. Only 32 students (28.8%) responded that there should be no grammatical errors to achieve fluent English skills, and 61 students (54.9%) responded that one must have native-like pronunciation to be fluent in English. 80.1% of the students had a very positive perception of teaching world cultures in English classes, but only 20.7% agreed that the focus of English education should shift away from English-speaking countries. The students' perceptions showed no significant differences by gender, but significant differences were found by academic year.
Conclusions The results of this study indicate that students have a very positive perception of the role of English as a global language and cultural diversity. However, their perception of English education from the perspective of world Englishes is low. Although students' understanding and perception of world Englishes have improved compared to previous studies, it suggests the need for further discussion on English education as a world Englishes. Teacher education programs should reflect the necessary changes following the paradigm shift in English education and develop practical teaching strategies.

Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Ka Kyung Hwan
Published: January 2025

Objectives This study was conducted to investigate the demographic characteristics, periodontal disease, anxiety, and depression of adult women who are highly sensitive to psychological factors to find out the relationship between anxiety and depression and periodontal disease according to demographic characteristics.
Methods The original data of the 8th 2nd year (2020) of the National Health and Nutrition Survey organized by the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention were used, and 2,368 copies were finally analyzed after receiving approval for the use of the data after submitting documents such as the original data, user security pledge, etc. on the website (https://knhanes.kdca.go.kr ). For data analysis, a chi-square test was conducted using SPSS/Win 20.0 to find out the difference in demographic and oral health-related characteristics and periodontal diseases, and univariate regression analysis was conducted to find out the number of toothbrushes and periodontal diseases caused by the use of dental floss and interdental toothbrushes. Multiple logistic regression analysis was conducted to find out the effect of periodontal diseases on anxiety and depression, and multivariable logistic regression was conducted to find out the relationship between demographic characteristics and anxiety and depression experiences.
Results The older the age, the higher the periodontal disease, and the higher the income and education level in the case of no experience of periodontal disease for the last one year. It was found that the number of times of brushing more than three times a day and the use of dental floss/interdental toothbrushes significantly increased the risk of periodontal disease, and periodontal disease significantly increased anxiety and depression. The experience of anxiety and depression was high in separation/divorce/divorce. The factor related to the experience of anxiety and depression was found to be marital status.
Conclusions It will be necessary to improve professional accessibility such as counseling by developing and providing regular and continuous depression management and prevention programs that can be easily accessed by anyone and the need for regular periodontal management and effective oral health management education to efficiently manage periodontal diseases.

Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Kim Sun Hyoung , Yoo Soo Kyung
Published: January 2025

Objectives Based on positive organizational theory, this study developed and validated a scale to measure the degree of publicness focusing on college students' school life.
Methods Questions were developed from the perspective of university students focusing on the main elements of the concept of publicness in positive organizational scholarship, and the main survey was conducted with a draft finalized through a Delphi survey and group interviews with experts. Afterwards, the validity and reliability of the scale were verified based on the data of 251 people in the main survey.
Results First, as a result of developing the scale draft, 49 questions in the initial draft were extracted into 38 questions after a Delphi survey, and 40 questions were confirmed as the final draft through item modification in a group interview with experts. Second, as a result of the descriptive statistical analysis of the questions after the main survey, an exploratory factor analysis was conducted assuming normal distribution of the item response distribution and item discrimination at an appropriate level. When one heterogeneous factor item was deleted and the factor loadings of a total of 39 items were considered, The appropriateness of the four-factor structure was confirmed. Lastly, as a verification of the goodness of the finalized scale, a normal distribution was assumed in the item response distribution, and a significant difference was confirmed in the item differentiation between the upper and lower groups(p=.000). The overall reliability, which is the internal fit of the scale, was .982, and a significant correlation between sub-domains was confirmed in construct validity (p<.01), so a total of 39 questions of the college student publicness scale were verified as a reliable and valid scale.
Conclusions Based on the concept of positive organizational research, a scale was completed to examine the concept of publicness among university students through validation.

Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Lee Kyungja , Choi Woongyong
Published: January 2025

Objectives The purpose of this study was to verify the moderating effect of cognitive flexibility on the relationship between emotional ambivalence and interpersonal problems in middle-aged women.
Methods To this end, an online survey was conducted targeting middle-aged women aged 40 to 60, and 322 copies were used for the final statistical analysis. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS 29.0 for descriptive statistical analysis, reliability analysis, and correlation analysis by variable, and the moderating effect was verified using Process Macro V4.2 Model 1.
Results First, the emotional expression ambivalence of middle-aged women was found to have a positive effect on interpersonal relationship problems. Second, the cognitive flexibility of middle-aged women was found to have a negative effect on interpersonal relationship problems. Third, the emotional expression ambivalence of middle-aged women and interpersonal relationship problems were found to be moderated by cognitive flexibility, and the moderating effect was found in both alternative and control, which are sub-variables of cognitive flexibility.
Conclusions First, it is significant that cognitive flexibility was confirmed to be an important moderating factor in the relationship between emotional expression ambivalence of middle-aged women and interpersonal relationship problems. Second, by revealing the major variables that affect the interpersonal problems of middle-aged women, it can provide basic data that can effectively intervene by specifying the interpersonal problems caused by emotional ambivalence. Third, as the average life expectancy increases and the importance of middle age increases, it is a very important time for women to form smooth interpersonal relationships with others more than any other time in their lives, so the results of this study provide implications for the development of counseling and education programs related to the interpersonal problems of middle-aged women.

Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Park Yeonjeong , Kang Hyunju
Published: January 2025

Objectives The purpose of this study is to lay the foundation for establishing a customized teaching and learning support system by clustering students based on the Learning Strategy Test (MLST) for freshmen in universities.
Methods For this purpose, 1,503 freshmen from A university in G city were diagnosed using the MLST to analyze their personality, motivation, emotion, and behavior characteristics. Descriptive statistics, regression analysis, cluster analysis, and cross-analysis were conducted, focusing on the sub-factors and related variables of the MLST.
Results The analysis of MLST sub-factors according to learners' academic achievement revealed that for personality characteristics, the scores for self-efficacy, outcome expectation, and conscientiousness decreased as academic achievement decreased. Learning motivation and competitive motivation also decreased with academic levels, while avoidance motivation was higher in the top academic group. In emotional characteristics, depression was lowest in the lower academic group but higher in the top group compared to the middle groups. Behavior characteristics scores decreased with lower academic achievement, but memory strategy scores were lower in the top group compared to middle groups. Regression analysis showed that MLST sub-factors explained 19.5% of academic achievement, with learning time, personality, and behavior characteristics being significant variables. When all 17 variables were included, the explanatory power increased to 22.9%, with notable contributions from self-efficacy, competitive and avoidance motivation, class listening, and test strategies. Four clusters were modeled based on MLST sub-factors: Yellow Light, Red Light, Blue Light, and Green Light. Cross-analysis showed significant differences when comparing these clusters with types based on study quantity and learning strategies (latent, stagnant, diligent).
Conclusions This study holds significance as a foundational study to link the MLST tests conducted for freshmen in universities to more customized learning support

Published: January 2025

Objectives The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of early childhood music education based on problem-based learning(PBL) on the music teaching content knowledge and efficacy of pre-service early childhood teachers.
Methods For this purpose, the study selected 25 freshmen in the Department of Early Childhood Education at U University in I City and 23 freshmen in the Department of Early Childhood Education at H University in G City in Chungnam Province among the students who took an “early childhood music education” course as their major elective. While the experiment group participated in an early childhood music education program based on PBL, the comparison group took common lecture-style lessons focused on the same teaching materials as the experiment group and participated in workshops and discussion activities. The experiment was conducted for 15 weeks from September 4 to December 14, 2023. Data was analyzed with the SPSS 22.0 program in a t-test for differences between the two groups.
Results First, early childhood music education based on PBL had positive effects on the subelements of pre- service early childhood teachers' knowledge about music teaching content including knowledge about the music curriculums, knowledge about the content of the music subject, knowledge about the music teaching-learning methods, and knowledge about the music teaching environment. Secondly, early childhood music education based on PBL also had positive effects on the subelements of pre-service early childhood teachers' music teaching efficacy including expectations for results and belief in music teaching ability. These findings show that early childhood music education based on PBL is effective for promoting pre-service early childhood teachers' knowledge about music teaching content and music teaching efficacy.
Conclusions The present study developed and applied an early childhood music education program based on PBL to promote the music teaching ability of pre-service early childhood teachers, proposed a direction for early childhood music education to them, and facilitated their music teaching ability, contributing to the substantialization of music education in the future.

Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Know Eunmi , Kim Dohyun
Published: January 2025

Objectives The purpose of this study was to determine the longitudinal relationship between perceived parenting style, depression, and smartphone addiction in early adolescents.
Methods For the purpose of this study, the data of 2,670 elementary school fourth graders from the Korean Child and Youth Panel Survey (KYCPS) 2018 were used for three years from 2018 (1st wave) to 2020 (3rd wave), and analyzed by the autoregressive cross-lagged model, which can confirm the mutual causal relationship between the three variables. The research steps included descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, and autoregressive cross-lagged analysis.
Results The results of the analysis showed that, first, negative parenting, depression, and smartphone addiction at the previous time point significantly predicted negative parenting, depression, and smartphone addiction at the next time point, indicating that the relationship between the three latent variables was stable over the three-year time period. Second, the interaction effects of negative parenting, depression, and smartphone addiction were different. There was a significant cross-lagged effect between depression and smartphone addiction, suggesting a mutual causal relationship between depression and smartphone addiction. There were no cross-lagged effects between negative parenting and depression, and negative parenting and smartphone addiction.
Conclusions The relationship between perceived parenting style, depression, and smartphone addiction in early adolescents is consistent over time, suggesting the need for psychoeducational interventions during early adolescence. Furthermore, the reciprocal relationship between depression and smartphone addiction in early adolescents suggests that proactive efforts to prevent depression and smartphone addiction in the early school years are needed.

Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Hwang Jiseon , Jung Jongwoo
Published: January 2025

Objectives This study investigated the variations in creative thinking and creative personality based on the music preference of science-gifted secondary school students who participated in a music-science GI-convergence education program.
Methods A total of 12 program sessions were conducted for 8th-grade science-gifted students selected in Daejeon, South Korea. Pre- and Post-tests for creative thinking and creative personality were administered. This was analyzed through quantitative and qualitative studies.
Results The findings indicate that science-gifted students with a preference for music subjects exhibited significantly higher scores in creative personality compared to those who did not prefer music subjects. In addition, qualitative research results revealed that science-gifted students who preferred music subjects improved their intrinsic motivation through perseverance, passion, imagination, and a keen interest in class while participating in the music-science GI-convergence education program.
Conclusions This suggests that their focus was more directed toward music-related learning. These results imply that science gifted students' inclination toward music subjects has a positive effect on the improvement of creative personality by influencing the emotional aspects of creativity expression.

Special Economic Measures as a Form of Restriction of Freedom of Economic Activity in the Russian Federation
Authors: Degtyarev M. A.
Published: January 2025

The article considers the institute of special economic measures as a specific form of restriction of freedom of economic activity in Russia.

The article characterizes the essence of special economic measures, defines their individual varieties that have the greatest impact on the realization of the constitutional principle of freedom of economic activity under sanctions. The author analyzes the normative-legal regulation of special economic measures, as well as the peculiarities of the functioning of certain types of special economic measures introduced and applied in the conditions of foreign economic restrictions.

In the conditions of sanctions legal regime, which is extraordinary, restrictions on the freedom of economic activity of certain categories of economic entities can be significantly expanded, and the limits of state intervention in the implementation of this constitutional principle are narrowed.

It seems reasonable in accordance with a number of principles of the institution of special economic measures. The measures include general principles of restriction of rights: the principle of compliance of the restriction with constitutional purposes (ensuring the defense and security of the state, protection of life and health of citizens, etc.), the principle of reasonableness of the restriction (application of the restriction in order to organize the functioning of the economic system of the Russian Federation), the principles of legality, urgency, proportionality of the restrictions imposed on existing threats.

At the same time, the author admits the necessity to improve the Russian legislation on special economic measures (including in terms of specifying the grounds, mechanisms and guarantees of their application to economic entities).
Artificial Intelligence and Inequality: A Legal Aspect
Authors: Rybin A. I. , Chashhukhin E. O.
Published: January 2025

The purpose of this article is to analyze the impact of artificial intelligence (hereinafter also referred to as AI) on social inequality. It is evident that AI not only brings about advantages but also serves as a means of infringing upon human rights, exacerbating social stratification at both the level of individual societies and on a global scale. Through the application of formal legal and comparative legal methodologies, it becomes apparent that the current practices of utilizing AI in various legal domains often fall short of achieving the intended objectives, sometimes even serving as a catalyst for discrimination and the perpetuation of social inequality. The paper underscores the active engagement of scholars and practitioners in addressing social inequality and other challenges associated with AI through the lens of AI ethics. The concept of AI ethics is explored, along with a critical analysis of ethical frameworks adopted by several technology companies operating in the field of artificial intelligence. It has been demonstrated that the primary cause of the emergence of social disparity in the realm of AI is not a dearth of ethical tenets in AI-driven algorithms, but rather a lack of adequate formalization of these ethical principles themselves into machine-readable language. It has been shown that the legal regulations in this domain, typically, are advisory in nature and emanate from corporations rather than from state institutions.
The Abuse of Right in Constitutional Law: Problem Statement
Authors: Evstafyev A. I.
Published: January 2025

Abuse of law is generally considered to be a legal phenomenon most inherent to private law. Historically, it first appeared in private Roman law; it found doctrinal development and application in legal sciences associated with private law. This issue and even the possibility of its existence are not paid due attention in constitutional legal regulation and the science of constitutional law. This article attempts to substantiate the existence of abuse of rights (powers) in the spheres that were mentioned, and to identify the problem of the insufficiency of appropriate legal regulation, which gives rise to the preconditions for abuse of rights. The current paper highlights distinctive elements of the legal phenomenon under study, and also gives a definition and assessment to the “gray zone” in which abuse of law in constitutional and legal relations is possible.
Um outro desejo do mundo: a pornografia queer como elemento que desorganiza a palavra e a imagem
Authors: Carvalho Martins Baruc , Müller Adalberto
Published: January 2025

Resumo
O que se passa entre a palavra e a imagem, o dito e o visto? Este artigo se propõe a investigar como o filme Nova Dubai (2014), de Gustavo Vinagre, e a antologia O poeta pornosiano (2011), de Glauco Mattoso, desorganizam a palavra e a imagem ao romperem com a representação por meio da pornografia. Desse modo, inspirado no método cartográfico proposto por Félix Guattari e Gilles Deleuze, esta pesquisa realiza uma cartografia entre literatura e cinema ao acompanhar diferentes níveis (do expressivo ao representativo) com o objetivo de seguir o fluxo desejante que atravessa ambas as obras. Nesse sentido, argumento que a mobilização de um desejo abjeto, que é convocado por meio de uma pornografia queer tanto na obra de Vinagre quanto na de Mattoso, procura atingir o avesso da palavra e da imagem. Assim, ao perseguir esse fluxo desejante, as obras se abrem para uma relação outra entre sujeito e mundo e rejeitam qualquer perspectiva de um futuro utópico ao assumir um fazer ético-estético-político que se movimenta por esse desejo abjeto, signo de uma negatividade queer. Por fim, o que aparece não é a configuração de uma identidade fixa e bem delimitada do ato sexual ou de seus participantes, mas a proliferação de sexualidades dissidentes e alternativas ao eixo heteronormativo.

Vyacheslav Ivanov. Research and Materials, issue 4
Authors:   A.M. Gorky Institute of World Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences
Published: January 2025

This is the fourth volume of the series Vyacheslav Ivanov. Research and Materials. Russian and foreign scholars explore Vyacheslav Ivanov’s poetics, his originality, the aesthetic and historiosophical traditions that inform it (St. Augustine, Fyodor Dostoevsky), the reception of Ivanov's works by Valery Bryusov, Ivanov's reception of the dramas of Dmitry Merezhkovsky, the poet's relationship to his contemporaries (Zoya Bukharova, Yuly Aikhenwald, Jean Chuzeville, Giovanni Papini, students of Baku University), the influence — direct or typological — of Ivanov's ideas on twentieth-century scholars (M.M. Bakhtin, Rene Girard, Ludmila Gogotishvili). Previously unpublished works are introduced: Lidia Zinovieva-Annibal’s drama “The Great Bell”, letters to Ivanov by Yury Verkhovsky and Olga Shor, a synopsis of the 1920 Pushkin Seminar that Ivanov led. On the basis of archival materials, Ivanov’s role in the publication of Italian translations of Vladimir Solovyov’s articles in the 1930s is traced, and Ivanov’s pedagogical methods are reconstructed.
“Geschenks-Widmung” by Vyacheslav Ivanov: Subtext and Context

Published: January 2025

The poem by Vyacheslav Ivanov in German, titled “Geschenks- Widmung” (1934), dedicated to his “companion on the spiritual path”, O.A. Shor, is examined by the publisher in the context of other messages, dedications, and epigrams that the poet addressed to the same person. The biographical subtext of this donation inscription and at the same time the epigram is explained: the history of the nickname “Flamingo”, Olga Alexandrovna’s engagement with German philosophy in her youth, and possibly Ivanov’s dissatisfaction with Shor’s delay in completing her philosophical work “Mnemology”.
The luminary of the Muses During the Storm: the Context of Vyacheslav I. Ivanov the Last Epistle to Yuri N. Verkhovsky
Authors:   Institute of History and Archaeology UB RAS, Mashtakova Liubov V.
Published: January 2025

The article provides a commentary on the poem by Vyacheslav I. Ivanov “Are you alive, my friend? Why in a dream…” from the cycle of poems “Roman Diary of 1944”. The poem is dedicated to the poet's friend and interlocutor Yuri N. Verkhovsky so it is considered in the context of the correspondence and an epistles of the two poets. Therefore, it is shown how individual images and motifs in the poem, referring to other earlier poems by both Ivanov and Verkhovsky, line up in a single metaplot: the singer as antient and Pushkin's Arion in the waves of wars and revolutions saves his poetic voice and restores peace, memory, and cultural continuity. For instance, the luminary of the muses from Ivanov’s poem refers to the image of the luminary by Verkhovsky in his works of the Civil War, which marks the victory of art and poetry over political cataclysms. The images of the Day of Wrath and the Iron Age are extended from the historical events of the 1900s, which formed the basis of the Ivanov cycle if poems of the same name, through the historical events of the Civil War to the Second World War. However, the symbolic motif of a fiery baptism, which was characteristic of Ivanov's works before his emigration, disappears in his later works. On the contrary in Verkhovsky poems in the 1940s it becomes central.
Vyacheslav Ivanov and Zoya Bukharova
Authors: Sobolev Alexander L.
Published: January 2025

In this article, the biography of Zoya Dmitrievna Bukharova (1876 or 1877–1941), an obscure St. Petersburg poetess of the turn of the century, is reconstructed with the utmost (given the present-day state of the available sources) detail. Key to her — if not fate, then at least a psychological portrait — turns out to be the story of her relationship with Vyacheslav Ivanov, which began about 1910 and ended with her confessional letter of 1920, coming from the out-of-the-way corner of Pskov Governorate. The history of their intermittent and deliberately unequal dialogue is essential not only for correspondents’ own life stories but also, above all, for studying the macrocosm of Russian modernism in its interpersonal aspect.
Socrates in Baku: Prolegomena to the Pedagogic of Vyacheslav Ivanov
Authors:   Yale University, Rudich Vasily
Published: January 2025

The essay opens with the first publication of Vyacheslav Ivanov's letter of 1925, written in ancient Greek at Rome, and addressed to his former student in Baku, Nina Aleksandrovna Guliaeva. In order to identify the addressee and comment on the letter's contents, it was imperative to inquire into extensive, and largely unpublished, correspondence with him on the part of his former students left in Baku, primarily, V.A. Manuilov, E.A. Millior, K.M. Kolobova and M.S. Altman. This material allows for a deeper exposition of the important role the Baku period (1920–1924) played in his creative and spiritual biography, and likewise — regarding the specifics of his academic activities as Professor of Classical Philology at Baku State University. It becomes clear that his pedagogical practice had not been limited to his lectures, and seminars, but it comprised an intense communication, outside the classroom, with individual students, variously reflecting the so-called paideia (παιδεία), the Hellenic concept of edification, which implied the wholesome and personal involvement on both sides in educational action. The available documentation (letters, diaries, recollections) permits a reconstruction of the relationship between the Professor and his students as well as juxtaposition of similarities and differences, explicit in the Socratic-Platonic didacticism and/or in Vyacheslav Ivanov's teaching methods (as well as his personal style of conduct) — especially, the translation of abstract philosophical ideas (among them, “the philosophy of eros”) into practical precepts in the realm of ethics. In both cases it aimed at the formation of a sovereign personality: endowed with capacity for authentic love, with the recognition of the human destination in transcending the empirical, and socially constructive — an ancient or the latest version of “kalokagathia”.

The article deals with the concept of a symbol and Russian symbolism proposed by L.A. Gogotishvili. The material of the analysis are her works about Vyach. Ivanov, A.F. Losev. Emphasis is placed on the novelty of Gogotishvili’s approach to Ivanov’s symbol as “the ugly objectification of the predicate”: proceeding from this position, the researcher understood Russian symbolism in the context of predicative and pragmatic theories of language that arose during the 20th century. A connection between the philosophical concepts accentuated by Gogotishvili is established: the symbol of Ivanov, the “two-voiced word” of Bakhtin, the “point of speaking” of Losev. In the light of Gogotishvili’s concept, an analysis of the symbolic language of Vyach. Ivanov in his early poetry is performed, the material of analysis are mainly the poems of the collection “Transparency” (1904) and the poem “Man”. They stand out through the plot of the unnamed God, whose Face slips away under many masks, disguises, echoes — they act as predicates of the symbol around which the super-myth of Vyach. Ivanov is built. In the melopey “Man” the process of “mas- tering” and “appropriation” by a person of the Name given from above is considered.
L.D. Zinovyeva-Annibal. Drama “The Great Bell”
Authors:   University of Salerno, Shishkin Andrey B.
Published: January 2025

For the first time, the final unfinished work of L.D. Zinovieva-Annibal, the dramatic mystery “The Great Bell” is published based on a manuscript from the Roman archive of Vyacheslav Ivanov. A little-known or unpublished correspondence of the Ivanov family is used to reconstruct the history of its creation. One of the keys to interpretation is found in Vera Shvarsalon’s diary from 1908, which helps clarify one of the main religious symbols of the drama.
Vyacheslav Ivanov, Nikolai Berdyaev and Others at the Meetings of the Pushkin Seminary in 1919: Notes by I.A. Kashkin
Authors:   A.M. Gorky Institute of World Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Glukhova Elena V.
Published: January 2025

The materials presented in the publication refer to the period of the Pushkin Seminary, organized by V.I. Ivanov in 1919–1920 in Moscow. In the preface, based on archival documents, the biography and period of brief communication between the translator, philologist, poet Kashkin (1899–1963) and V.I. Ivanov are considered. For the first time, notes are published from the notebook of Kashkin, who was a student and participant in the seminary in the summer of 1919. These notes are today the only surviving detailed notes of the speeches of Ivanov, Berdyaev and other seminary participants. Notes from Ivanov's lectures and seminars devoted to poetic analyzes of Pushkin's lyrics, as well as Berdyaev's lecture on the personality and work of Andrei Bely, are of undoubted interest for a historian of Russian symbolist culture of the post-revolutionary period.
From Olga Shor’s Letters to Vyacheslav Ivanov
Authors:   Institute of Russian Literature (Pushkin House) of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Fetisenko Olga L.
Published: January 2025

Specialists in biography and work of Vyach. Ivanov are well acquainted with the significant role that Olga Alexandrovna Shor (1894–1978) played in the life of Vyach. Ivanov since 1924. A young Muscovite with a deep interest in German philosophy and Italian art, particularly Michelangelo, Olga Alexandrovna initially assisted the poet’s family in their preparations for leaving Soviet Russia. Subsequently, she effectively managed all matters related to Ivanov, linking him to Moscow. The beginning of their correspondence, preserved in Ivanov’s Roman archive, is almost exclusively associated with practical matters. Olga Alexandrovna herself ended up in Rome and spent the rest of her life within Ivanov’s family, evolving into an indispensable aide, attentive listener, engaging conversationalist, and eventually becoming the foremost biographer of her elder friend. In 2001, the “Russian-Italian Archive” published Ivanov's letters to Shor, along with a small part of Shor’s responses. The ongoing publication now introduces another eight letters from Shor, intertwined with underlying narratives. The final letter belongs to the Italian period of the author's life.

Lung Ultrasound for COVID-19 prognosis a unique experience on elderly patients
Authors: Lama López Adela
Published: January 2025

Introduction: COVID-19 has been a challenging disease to manage at long term care facilities (LTCFs) and nursing homes (NHs). We present a unique experience in a medicalized-NH with elderly patients where we analyzed lung ultrasound (LUS) as a tool to predict the severity of the disease and death.
Methods: All patients admitted to the center were included, recording their background and the clinical features of the disease. We made a descriptive analysis and a multivariate analysis to identify variables linked to a severe disease and to mortality, specially focusing on the ability of LUS to predict clinical outcomes.
Results: We included 288 patients with a median age of 80 years old, 98 (34%) had a severe disease at admission, 38 (13.2%) died and 7 (2.4%) were transferred to the hospital. LUS was performed in 143 (49.7%) patients. We found a significant association between the presence of B lines or focal alteration and a severe disease (P<0.001 and P=0.006 respectively) or death (P=0.005 and P=0.001 respectively). The clinical variables linked to severity in the multivariable analysis were the elevation of RCP (OR=9.53; P=0.046; IC95% 1.03-87.51), the presence of crackles at lung auscultation (OR=10.63; P=0.018; IC95% 1.51-75.02) and focal alterations in LUS (OR=10.65; P=0.046; IC95% 1.04-108.99). If we focus on mortality we found, through the construction of the Cox regression model, that the main variables linked to it were a higher degree of dependence (OR=3.86; P=0.002; IC 95% 1.65 – 9.01) and the presence of B lines at day 1 in LUS (OR=6.06; P=0.019; IC 95% 1.12 – 32.81).
Conclusions: LUS is a useful, unharmful, reproducible and cheap tool that can be used in an outpatient environment in order to predict severity and death in COVID-19 patients and, surely, in other respiratory infections. We also propose an innovative way to manage a vulnerable population in a pandemic context.

Murine pancreatic endocrinogenesis has been extensively studied, but human data remain scarce due to limited sample availability. Here, we first built a large collection of human embryonic and fetal pancreases covering the first trimester of pregnancy to explore human endocrinogenesis. Using an experimental pipeline combining in toto staining, tissue clearing, and light-sheet fluorescence microscopy, we show that insulin+, glucagon+, and somatostatin+ cells appear simultaneously at Carnegie Stage (CS) 16. This contrasts with rodents where glucagon+ cells appear first, followed by insulin+ and finally somatostatin+ cells and highlights interspecies differences. We also detected bi-hormonal endocrine cells in 7 out of 9 human pancreases between CS16-18, which were no longer detected at later stages. We observed that cell distribution within human fetal islets resembles adult mouse islets, with a core of beta cells surrounded by alpha and delta cells, differing from a more complex arrangement in adult human islets. This, in connection with the small size of human fetal islets when compared to adult, suggests that adult human islets may form by fusion of pre-existing islets, in contrast to the mouse fission model. Together, our study provides a detailed and comprehensive description of the spatiotemporal dynamics of human pancreatic endocrinogenesis.
