Битва за Днепр в годы Второй мировой войны. Новое концептуальное видение проблемы
Authors: Chornyi Oleksandr
Published: December 2024

The article is devoted to the Battle of the Dnipro – one of the largest on the eastern (German-Soviet) front during World War II. Traditionally, Soviet and post-Soviet militarist historians, describing the confrontation between the Workers’ and Peasants’ Red Army and the Wehrmacht on the Dnipro as a turning point, are unanimous that the battle was its end, the crowning achievement of the Red Army at Stalingrad and Kursk Bulge. Reducing the scale and significance of the battle for the Dnipro, the Soviet historical and propaganda machine resorted to artificially reducing its chronological boundaries, and thus the covered areas. In research, the author raises the question of the need for a scientific rethinking of the Battle of the Dnipro – expanding its chronological and territorial boundaries, and objective determination of its military-political, economic, and historical significance. The article is prepared to take into account modern scientific ideas about the event and is based on historical sources.
О загадочной корпоративной институции (украинские губернии Российской империи)
Authors: Shandra Walentyna
Published: December 2024

The article deals with the noble guardianship, an estate institution founded by Catherine II, which successfully existed until 1917. The purpose of the article is to reveal its functions and find out the measures taken by the state to modernize it. Guardianship became a flexible means of controlling the status of the estates of the privileged class. The state strove for estates with the loss of their owner to remain in the family and under the control of the guardianship and noble corporation, materially ensuring the upbringing and education of young nobles, potential military and state managers. It disciplined the owners of estates to productive management, not to resort to extravagance, as well as suspended the brutality of the landlords regarding the exploitation of the peasantry, the main tax payer and source of supply of soldiers for the army. In the second half of the 19th–beginning of the 20th centuries guardianship became more active, which is explained by attempts to use it to preserve estates during the transition to market relations. Losing their dominant position, the nobility used guardianship to preserve state identity, protect property, and the state – to collect funds from indebted owners.
İstanbul Türk ve İslâm Eserleri Müzesi’nde Bulunan Bir Memlûk Mushafı Üzerine Mülâhazalar
Authors: Berk Süleyman
Published: December 2024

Dünya Osmanlı Devleti’nin makarr-ı saltanatı olan Dersaâdet’e, Memlûkler zamanında birçok Mushaf-ı Şerîf’in geldiği; XIX. yüzyılın başlarından itibaren muhafaza edilmek üzere vakfedildikleri camilerden, türbelerden, müze ve kütüphâne koleksiyonlarına toplanan eserlerden anlaşılmaktadır.
İslâm yazı sanatı, başlangıcında imlâ gelişimine odaklanmış, bu meyanda ilk asır sonrası yazı estetiği üzerine çalışmalar yapılmıştır. Abbâsîler döneminde görülen bu gayretler neticesi yazının kurallara bağlandığı ve çeşitlendiği görülmüştür. Bunlardan Memlûk döneminde, Mushaf yazımında kullanılan Muhakkak ve Reyhâni yazı çeşidi Osmanlı’da Hattat Şeyh Hamdullah’a (1429- 1520) kadar Mushaf yazısı olarak kullanılmıştır. Tarihî seyri içerisinde Memlûkler döneminde Muhakkak yazının gelişimini ve ulaştığı seviyeyi bu Mushaf’ta görmek mümkündür.
Makalenin amacı gerek yazı sanatı gerekse süsleme sanatı açısından günümüz sanatkârlarına bir örnek sunmaktır. Mushaf’ta Zer mürekkeple yazılan harflerin etrafı siyah mürekkeple tahrirlenmiş, harekeler ise siyah mürekkeple yazılmıştır. Satırlarda harfler kürsüsünde olup, hat olarak da döneminin özelliklerini aksettirmektedir. Sûre başı yazıları ise Sülüs hat iledir. Görülmektedir ki Mushaf, günümüz yazı sanatında çokça kullanılan Muhakkak yazıya dâir özgün örnekleri ortaya koymaktadır. Araştırmadaki bir diğer gaye de Mushaf’ın hattatı ile ilgili tashihte bulunmaktır. Mushaf’ın, tefsir kısmının ferağ kaydında, “Muhammed b. Su‘ûd eş-Şâfiî” ismi geçmektedir. Bu Mushaf’ın hattatı olmayıp tefsirin müellifidir. Dolayısıyla Mushaf’ın hattatı belli değildir.
Mushaf’ın tezhipleri ve cilt kapakları ile “İslâm Kitap Sanatı”nın göz alıcı örnekleri olan bu eser belli bir dönemin üslûbunu ve tekniğini yansıtması bakımından önemlidir. XV. yüzyıldan İstanbul Türk ve İslâm Eserleri Müzesi (TİEM)’nde bulunan bu Mushaf, Memlûk dönemi kitap sanatının ulaştığı mükemmelliği günümüze ulaştıran önemli eserlerdendir. Kitap sanatının hâmisi, Memlûk Sultanı Kayıtbay’ın (1468-1496) hazinesi için yazılan Mushaf, 9 satırlı ve 463 yapraktan müteşekkildir. Salbekli ve oval şemseli, miklepli vişne rengi deri cildi döneminden kalmadır. Bu Mushaf’ın önemli bir özelliği de 439b- 462b’ye kadar yine sûre başlığı altında, âyetlerin kelime anlamlarının Arapça olarak izah edilmesidir. Mushaf’ta Sultan II. Bâyezid’in vakıf mührünün bulunması, Mushaf’ın Sultan II. Bâyezid döneminde Saray’a girdiğini göstermektedir. Eser, 1480- 1490 yılları arasına tarihlenebilir. Sultan III. Ahmed’in annesinin Üsküdar’da yaptırmış olduğu Gülnûş Emetullah Vâlide Sultan Camii’ne konulmak üzere vakfettiği h. 1132/1719 tarihli Arapça yazılmış olan kayıttan anlaşılmaktadır.

Coastal areas share unique intersections of large-scale climate variability and local hydrology, wetland, benthic and pelagic ecosystems, and anthropogenic pressures. Forecasting of harmful environmental conditions for planning, adaptation, and mitigation purposes is both complex and urgently needed. Ecological forecasting is the qualitative or quantitative projection of biogeochemical, organismal or ecosystem state variables and their drivers on timescales that can range from “now” to decades from now. Estimating hypoxia in Chesapeake Bay today, predicting acidity conditions in the Northeast Pacific in a few months, or projecting the depth of the Bering Sea nutricline in 2075 are all ecological forecasts relevant to planning, adaptation, and mitigation efforts. In 2022, the US CLIVAR and Ocean Carbon & Biogeochemistry (OCB) Programs convened a joint workshop to advance the development of US ecological forecasting. The workshop goals were to 1) identify sources of predictability of physical quantities relevant for marine ecosystems along US coastlines; 2) assess the observational needs of forecast systems and limitations due to gaps in understanding; and 3) promote the development of dynamical and statistical models suitable to meet the forecasting requirements. About 80 participants from over 40 US and international institutions joined this hybrid workshop for plenary talks and breakout discussions. Participants represented a diversity of career stages across academic institutions, government agencies, and non-government organizations. By working together, they collectively identified a path forward for a coordinated US ecological forecasting effort as detailed in this report.
O jogo de paradoxo intergênere em La prueba de los ingenios, de Lope de Vega
Authors: Rodrigues Karenina do Nascimento
Published: December 2024

RESUMO O objetivo deste artigo é abordar como o dramaturgo espanhol Lope de Vega (1562-1635) usa o recurso do paradoxo nas relações dos gêneros feminino e masculino em La prueba de los ingenios através dos dilemas de casamento, do metatravestimento, do labirinto e dos contra-silogismos. O feminino engenhoso, que supera o engenho masculino, mostra as inconsistências das convenções normativas sobre mulheres no vocabulário dramático da comédia. O fenômeno da mulher erudita é um contraponto às restritas funções de filha-virgem, mãe-mulher e velha-viúva. La prueba de los ingenios é a primeira comédia do primeiro livro organizado por Lope, a Novena Parte, de 1617, focada no protagonismo feminino. A partir dessa comédia, portanto, propomos um olhar atento às especificidades culturais do Antigo Regime. O enredo central da protagonista Florela, em prol de interesses casamenteiros naquela sociedade patriarcal, revela o quanto a reputação das mulheres não depende somente de mérito, mas da obrigação de se casar para gerar descendentes, o que pressupõe a aceitação da mediocridade de seus maridos. No caso de La prueba de los ingenios, os pretendentes são contrastados pela engenhosidade minotáurica do casal sáfico da comédia. O engenho extraordinário das damas, bem como o potencial sáfico da relação entre elas, associa-se ao monstro Minotauro, provocando o efeito maravilhoso da comédia.
Camões’ Veil and Machado’s Sleeves
Authors: Dixon Paul
Published: December 2024

ABSTRACT Dom Casmurro’s narrator, Bento Santiago, tells of requiring his wife Capitu to stop wearing sleeveless dresses when she goes to dances. Her compliance involves using semi-transparent sleeves, which he compares to the diaphanous veil used by Venus in Luís de Camões’s Os lusíadas. As is the case with many of Machado de Assis’ literary allusions, the reference contains surreptitious clues. On the one hand, by evoking the contriving femininity of Venus it supports the narrator’s accusation of infidelity against his wife. But on the other hand, the allusion suggests that Santiago’s account, as a whole, is like a semi-transparent veil, encouraging the reader to look for deeper meanings that may not agree with the narrator’s intentions.
O Dante Alighieri de Machado de Assis: o inferno XXV entre crítica textual e tradução
Authors: Brunello Yuri
Published: December 2024

RESUMO Em 1874, Machado de Assis publica a sua tradução do canto XXV do Inferno de Dante. A nossa hipótese é de que a escolha desse canto depende de uma ambivalência estrutural: por um lado, Inferno XXV apresenta uma forte compatibilidade com o discurso romântico; por outro lado, permite a Machado um afastamento gradual desse discurso, graças a um gosto “metamórfico” conciliável com a estética parnasiana. O presente estudo tentará demonstrar, através de um caminho crítico-filológico, que a edição italiana da Comédia utilizada por Machado para a referida tradução é de proveniência francesa, publicada em Paris, em 1868, pela editora Firmin Didot.
Slam e endereçamento: lírico, não-lírico e contrapúblico
Authors: Manzoni Filipe
Published: December 2024

RESUMO Este trabalho propõe uma investigação a respeito do mecanismo de endereçamento presente em alguns poemas da cena do SlamBR e sua irredutibilidade às categorias tradicionais implicada na recepção lírica. Após uma rápida introdução a respeito da coimplicação entre as materialidades da literatura e seus sistemas de endereçamento a partir de um poema de Jéssica Campos, me voltarei para a importância do endereçamento articulado pela alternância inclusiva/exclusiva da primeira pessoa do plural em dois poemas de Kimani. Em seguida, desdobrarei dois cenários de análise: um centrado na estruturação histórica do “endereçamento lírico” e na possibilidade de uma deriva deste; e, em seguida, um segundo, voltado para uma teoria política pensada a partir de uma “primeira pessoa indisponível”, desdobrada a partir de um poema de Luz Ribeiro. Por fim, tentarei propor uma alternativa à conformação de uma comunidade de recepção lírica, aproximando o “não-lírico” de um paradigma do contrapúblico.
Dom Casmurro e o amor infeliz
Authors: Teles Adriana da Costa
Published: December 2024

RESUMO Este artigo tem por objetivo discutir a ideia de amor (infeliz) no romance Dom Casmurro (1900), de Machado de Assis. Para tanto, buscaremos os elementos delineados pelo pesquisador suíço Denis de Rougemont em História do amor no Ocidente (1939), obra que busca, na tradição medieval cortês, as origens do amor romântico na literatura europeia. Nosso objetivo é discutir de que maneira o romance de Machado dialoga com essa tradição.
Nação e (contra)miscigenação: a antropologia como provocação à crítica literária
Authors: Breunig Tiago Hermano
Published: December 2024

RESUMO A antropologia do século XIX descobriu “culturas diferentes para subordiná-las ao fio de prumo comum da escala evolucionista”, disciplinando a diversidade pelo “louvor do mesmo”, como nota Luiz Costa Lima a respeito da crítica literária brasileira, fundada com bases naquela antropologia. Este trabalho procura especular a contribuição da antropologia contemporânea para a crítica literária brasileira ao oferecer uma perspectiva alternativa ao modelo dominante, em que predomina “o descobridor, o colonizador, o implantador da nova ordem de coisas”, como supunha Sílvio Romero, visando acentuar outras formas de conceber os encontros e as interações entre os povos e as culturas que participam dos processos reduzidos, pela teoria da miscigenação elaborada no século XIX, a assimilação e integração. Para tanto, este trabalho privilegia perspectivas visibilizadas pela antropologia contemporânea que se caracterizam por “não pressupor a homogeneização como horizonte da interação entre as diferenças”, como sugere Marcio Goldman, tomadas como possibilidade de (re)leitura da crítica literária e da literatura brasileiras.
O “contexto” de Machado de Assis
Authors: Felipe Cleber Vinicius do Amaral
Published: December 2024

RESUMO O título deste ensaio adota aspas para remeter, desde logo, a um assunto controverso e urgente: em que medida o contexto histórico explica a ficção de Machado de Assis? Como sua literatura estiliza matérias verossímeis de seu tempo, não seria apropriado analisar a historicidade do estilo empregado ao invés de negligenciá-lo? Os elementos sociopolíticos e os debates promovidos por seus contemporâneos fornecem condições suficientes para compreender a legibilidade de sua obra? Este breve ensaio formula, mas não resolve essas questões; talvez funcione como provocação, indicando problemas e sugerindo caminhos para confrontá-los.

COMPARISON OF THERMOPHYSICAL PROPERTY MODELS OF NANOFLUIDS FOR THERMAL PERFORMANCE IN A MICROCHANNEL
Authors: Goktepeli Ilker , Atmaca Ulas
Published: December 2024

Different thermophysical property models for nanofluids and several dimensionless parameters have been compared in the case of heat transfer for laminar flow in a microchannel. Addition of nanoparticles, including Al2O3, CuO, and TiO2, to water has been considered for volumetric concentrations up to φ = 7%. The numerical analyses have been conducted via the finite difference method for a transient regime. The heat transfer results have been obtained in terms of the interfacial heat flux, bulk temperature, and the Nusselt number. The parametrical effects of Péclet number values, wall thickness ratios, thermal diffusivity ratios, thermal conductivity ratios, and Brinkman number values have been evaluated. Based on the results, the influence of axial conduction has been clearly observed for lower Péclet numbers. Furthermore, the increment of the thermal conductivity ratio and the decrement of the wall thickness ratio have enhanced thermal performance. Nevertheless, the thermal characteristics have not been significantly influenced by the thermal diffusivity ratio. The viscous dissipation has altered the heat transfer direction due to the change in the Brinkman number. The required time to reach the steady state for numerical solution increased because of decreasing Brinkman number values. Heat transfer augmentation has been obviously obtained due to ascending nanofluid volumetric concentrations. The CuO nanoparticles have been recommended owing to their higher thermal performance for the fixed volumetric concentration. According to the thermophysical models compared for each type of nanoparticles, the models for Al2O3 nanoparticles presented the closest results to each other. Nonetheless, it has been observed that one model for CuO nanoparticles and one model for TiO2 nanoparticles are inadequate.
Briefing: Role of civil engineers in advancing water and climate adaptation investments globally
Authors: Pladaite Milda
Published: December 2024

This briefing discusses the emerging challenges and opportunities related to water scarcity and infrastructure adaptation due to climate change. Water-related disasters, including floods, droughts and wildfires, now account for over 90% of natural disasters. These challenges present investment opportunities, such as flood protection measures that can increase property values and attract new investments in redeveloped areas. Water demand is projected to exceed sustainable supply by 40% by 2030, highlighting the urgent need for innovation and investment in water management technologies. Developing regions, especially small island developing states (SIDS), are particularly vulnerable to water and climate challenges due to their remote locations and limited financing. This article emphasises the role of scientific, engineering and technological innovations in addressing these issues. It stresses the importance of bridging the divide between developed and developing regions and engaging the private sector in sustainable investments. Impact investors are crucial in turning water-related challenges into financial opportunities, yet the water sector remains underfunded compared with other areas like clean energy. Civil engineers should take a lead in driving sustainable infrastructure solutions, collaborating with investors and supporting the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly in vulnerable regions like SIDS.

Capacidad adaptativa al cambio climático de la población agricultora del Ecuador
Authors:   Universidad Central del Ecuador, Cáceres Arteaga Natali , D. Lane K. Maria ,   University of Nuevo México
Published: December 2024

El cambio climático es un problema global y heterogéneo que produce condiciones asimétricas y desiguales, cuyos efectos se diferencian a nivel local (Bárcen, et al, 2018). El aumento del nivel del mar, los cambios en los patrones climáticos y los eventos extremos más frecuentes, la pérdida de especies y ecosistemas, y otros cambios relacionados con el clima tienen un impacto diferencial como resultado de varios factores como la geografía y los ingresos, y son también configurados por roles, responsabilidades y derechos asociados con determinantes de estatus social y expectativas, incluyendo sexo, clase y casta (Thomas et al, 2019; Agostino y Lizarde, 2012; Carr y Thompson, 2014). Adicionalmente, el nivel de desarrollo, la pobreza, el acceso a la tecnología, el poder político y la representación en las negociaciones nacionales e internacionales son factores que se entremezclan para generar en la población afectada una mayor o menor capacidad adaptativa al cambio climático (Warner y Weitzman, 2015).
Egyes apiterápiás házak bemutatása
Authors: Balogh Máté , Szabó Rubina Tünde
Published: December 2024

Az apiterápiás házak bemutatásával célunk a magyarországi apiterápiás kezelések helyzetéről beszámolni, mivel hazánkban is egyre elterjedtebb mind az orvoslásban, mind a házi patikai módszerekben a méhészeti termékek alkalmazása. Főként légző szervi és idegrendszeri betegségekre alkalmazzák térségünkben. A megkérdezett apiterápiás házat üzemeltető szakember leginkább felső légúti megbetegedésekre alkalmazza páciensei esetében. Az apiterápia gyakran kiegészítő kezelésként ajánlható, mivel nem egy monoterápiás eljárás. Az interjúk alapján tehát megállapítható volt, hogy egyre több ember vesz részt a kezelésben, de szélesebb körű oktatást és információkat kell biztosítani az emberek számára hazánkban is az apiterápiás kezelések kedvező hatásairól és hatékonyságáról.
Különböző székelyföldi mézminták változásának vizsgálata az idő függvényében
Authors: Vásárhelyi Panka Boglárka , Szabó Rubina Tünde , Albert Csilla
Published: December 2024

A kutatás célja, hogy a különböző székelyföldi mézminták fiziko-kémiai tulajdonságaiban bekövetkezett változásokat nyomon kövesse, fél év tárolás elteltével. A 10 vizsgált mézminta esetében 6 fajtaméz volt: napraforgó-, hárs-, harmat-, repce-, vegyesvirág-, és akácméz. Vizsgáltuk a mézek nedvességtartalmát, elektromos vezetőképességét, cukorkomponensek változását (glükóz, fruktóz, glükóz/fruktóz arány, szacharóz) és hidroxi-metil-furfurol tartalmat. Minden minta esetében csökkent a nedvességtartalom. A tárolás hatására a glükóz és a fruktóz mennyisége növekedett, míg a szacharóz mennyisége csökkent. A mézminták között az elektromos vezetőképességet és a diasztáz-enzim aktivitást tekintve szignifikáns különbség mutatkozik. Elektromos vezetőképessségben legnagyobb csökkenést a hárs-, harmatméz, illetve napraforgóméz mutatta. A mézminták hidroxi-metil-furfurol tartaloma növekvő tendenciát mutat, kiemelkedően akácmézekben. További, nagyobb elemszámmal elvégzett vizsgálatok segíthetik a paraméterek közötti összefüggések megértését.
Trapping results for Weasel (Mustela nivalis) and Norway rat (Rattus norvegicus) in the LAJTA Project
Authors: Keszthelyi Gáspár , Faragó Sándor , Vass Gábor , Bende Attila
Published: December 2024

Our study in the LAJTA Project is ground-breaking in several aspects of small carnivore trapping for domestic
game management. During the trapping activity for the thinning of weasel and Norway rat, which took place for
one year from August 2023, we gained experience in the use and capture efficiency of a device (Fenn Mark 4
type) not used in the country. Our results are compensatory not only because of the tool used, but also because
the weasel is a protected species in Hungary and can only be thinned in the project area within the framework of
our wildlife biology studies on this species. In the present study, 111 specimens of 3 species (weasel, Norway
rat, domestic ferret) were captured during a one-year trapping period using 50 traps set over a length of 32 km.
The catch effort (catch effort/100 trapping units) was 0.36 specimen/100TU for weasel (n=66), 0.23
specimen/100TU for Norway rat (n=42) and 0.59 specimen/100TU for all trapped species (n=111). 97% of the
weasels captured were males, which also reflects the results of international studies well. Our results confirm
that successful trapping of weasels and Norway rats can only be effective with a large amount of equipment and
high manpower input if traps are set at the right time and in the right habitat types. The highest capture success
rates in edge habitats were achieved for traps placed at the intersection of woody and herbaceous vegetation and
multiple habitat types for both weasel and Norway rat. However, the seasonality of capture success differed for
the two species studied. For the weasel, the predominant proportion (48.5%) was trapped in summer, whereas
for the Norway rat, about 50% of the annual catches occurred in winter.
A vidra (Lutra lutra) elütések alakulásának tér-idő mintázata Magyarországon
Authors: Faragó Sándor , László Richárd
Published: December 2024

A nagytestű menyétféle a vidra (Lutra lutra) állományai Európa-szerte megfogyatkoztak a 20. század közepére, így veszélyeztetett emlősfajjá vált. Szerepel a Berni Egyezmény II. Mellékletében, a 92/43/EEC EU Rendelet II. és IV. Függelékében, a CITES I. Függelékében, valamint a kereskedelmet szabályozó EC 338/97 Rendelet „A” Mellékletében (FARAGÓ 2015). Magyarország a vidra egyik legfontosabb európai előfordulási helye. Vizeink ugyanis kevésbé szennyezettek, mint Nyugat-Európában és a sok halastórendszer (főleg a Dél-Dunántúlon és az Alföld keleti részén) eszményi helyet biztosít a faj számára. Így nemcsakhazai, de európai jelentőségű is a hazai vidravédelem.
A róka (Vulpes vulpes) és borz (Meles meles) elütések alakulásának tér-idő mintázata Magyarországon
Authors: László Richárd , Faragó Sándor
Published: December 2024

A vörös róka (Vulpes vulpes) csaknem egész Eurázsiában és Észak-Amerikában előfordul. Csak a magas északról és a trópusi területekről hiányzik e kontinenseken. Nem válogatós, ún. generalista faj, mindenütt megtalálja létfeltételeit, amit széles körű elterjedése is igazol. Megél a tundrán, a sivatagban, s újabban a nagyvárosok elővárosaiban is. Hazánkban régebben erdei vadnak tartották, holott a mezőgazdasági területeken is mindenütt jelen volt. Ez a széleskörű élettérfoglalás napjainkra is jellemző. Nálunk is érzékelhető az utóbbi időszakban, peremvárosokban (üdülő övezetekben) való megtelepülése, illetőleg mind gyakoribb jelenléte.
Az aranysakál (Canis aureus) párzási időszakon kívüli párpótlása
Authors: Csányi Erika , Sándor Gyula
Published: December 2024

Az aranysakál elterjedési területe az elmúlt évtizedekben rohamosan növekedett Európában. Az adatok és vizsgálatok hiánya korlátozza a faj ökoszisztémában betöltött szerepének megértését. A rugalmas szociális szerkezet és viselkedés, beleértve a párzási rendszer jellemzőit és a falkában a segítők jelenlétét, hozzájárulhat a faj sikeres terjeszkedéshez. A nagy sakálsűrűségű területeken a nem szaporodó egyedek olyan lehetőségekkel néznek szembe, mint a szétszóródás vagy épp a territóriumok megüresedése. Nagyszámú GPS-nyakörvvel ellátott aranysakál viselkedését követve Magyarországon egyedülálló kölcsönhatást észleltünk egy alfa pár (M08 hím és F10 nőstény) között, illetve egy szomszéd nőstény (F07 nőstény) között. Az M08 és az F10 legalább három kölyköt nevelt, és mint alfa pár otthonterületük és annak magterülete jelentősen átfedték egymást. Az F07 külön élt, az alfa pár közvetlen közelében egy családi csoport tagjaként. Az F10 elejtését követően F07 gyorsan belépett a korábbi alfa pár otthonterületére (egy napon belül). Ez követően már nem tért vissza a korábbi otthonterületére, és az alfahím közelében maradt, annak területét még hím halála után sem hagyta el. Dokumentáltuk, hogy egy nem rokon, nem szaporodó nőstény helyettesítette az elhullott alfa nőstényt a párzási időszakon kívül. Ez a korábban nem dokumentált párpótlódás az aranysakál evolúciós szempontból előnyös stratégiáját támassza alá és a jelenség hozzájárulhat az aranysakál intenzív populációnövekedéséhez és gyors terjedéséhez.
The biology of the Weasel (Mustela nivalis L.) in the light of the Hungarian literature
Authors: Vass Gábor , Bende Attila
Published: December 2024

To gain a better understanding of the biology of the Weasel, we collected and evaluated the literature on this species based on publications related to hunting, wildlife management and zoology in Hungary. The evaluation was based on 267 articles published in ten journals in the period between the 19th and 21st centuries, covering morphology, ethology, habitat, veterinary aspects, reproduction and nutritional biology. The importance of each topic, such as the importance of issues related to the biology and perception of the species, was assessed by the number of publications in that topic. The highest proportion of mentions related to nutritional biology was published in the national press (44.6%). We also had the opportunity to compile a taxon list summarising the potential food components of the Weasel based on the mentions published in the papers. Reports on the habitat of the species were the next most important topic (23.2%), but also a significant proportion of publications on the morphology of the species (12.0%), similar to the studies on reproduction (10.5%). Publications on animal health and ethology represented a smaller proportion (4.9%) of the publications on the biology of the Weasel. It is clear from the summarised works that the focus of the authors' work was on outlining the role of wildlife management, since a realistic assessment of the role of this species requires a basic understanding of the range of species preyed upon and the habitat types they prefer. Based on these studies, a comprehensive picture of the biology of the Weasel has been obtained, which is a gap in the Hungarian zoological literature on this understudied small carnivore in Europe
Correlation between the medial longitudinal arch and foot-related quality of life in recreational runners: a cross-sectional study
Authors: Joshi Sonali , Chahal Aksh , Kaushik Himani , Ali Kamran

BACKGROUND: The foot's anatomical structure, specifically the medial longitudinal arch (MLA), is critical in running biomechanics, as it absorbs impact forces and facilitates movement. Alterations in MLA structure can lead to abnormal foot kinematics, increasing susceptibility to injuries and negatively impacting foot functionality. AIM: This study aims to explore the potential impact of MLA height on recreational runners' quality of life (QoL) and determine the correlation between MLA height and foot-related QoL. METHODOLOGY: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 38 recreational runners aged 18-30, classified into three MLA groups (low, normal, high) using the Arch Height Index (AHI). Foot functionality and QoL were assessed using the Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM) questionnaire, including 22 items for Activities of Daily Living (ADL) and 8 for sports-related activities. RESULTS: Low MLA was positively correlated with higher FAAM scores in both ADL (AHI-Right = 0.79, AHI-Left = 0.71) and sports subscales (AHI-Right = 0.67, AHI-Left = 0.53; p<0.01). Conversely, high MLA showed a negative correlation with ADL (AHI-Right = -0.44, AHI-Left = -0.44) and sports subscales (AHI-Right = -0.60, AHI-Left = -0.70; p>0.05). CONCLUSION: MLA height is inversely correlated with QoL in recreational runners, suggesting that both high and low MLA heights may impact functional quality of life.

The environmental impact of polystyrene and other petrochemical packaging has increased interest in researching biodegradable materials as alternatives. The main objective of this research was to develop biodegradable trays from five formulations of Poraqueiba sericea Tulasne (known as umari) seed starch and corn cob meal. The trays were produced using the thermoforming process applying temperatures of 135°C and 145°C for each side of the tray for a time of 6.5 min. Physical analysis of the trays showed that the increase in the percentage of corn cob flour caused changes in color (L*: 68.69 - 64.94), thickness (2.20 - 3.17 mm), density (0.251 - 0.414 g/cm3), moisture (3.85 - 5.68%), water absorption (21.86 - 39.05%), volatile solids (95.33 - 98.31%). Regarding mechanical properties, it was also evidenced the increase in hardness (67.70 - 90.97 N), fracturability (1.43 and 3.19 mm), tension (2.84 to 3.43 MPa) and elongation (1.54 to 2.04%). The formulation of 87.5% umari seed starch and 12.5% tusa flour presented more favorable physical and mechanical properties. Further analysis of this formulation was performed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), which identified bands characteristic of starch (1055 and 1027 cm-1); X-ray diffraction (XRD), which revealed characteristic peaks (2θ = 16.83° and 2θ = 22.69°) associated with cellulose crystallinity in the biodegradable tray; and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), which revealed cellulosic voids with irregular distribution due to the addition of fibers. Future research should examine the potential applications of these biodegradable trays for the packaging of raw materials in the food industry.
Towards Alexander Gorsky’s Three Theses on Psychoanalysis
Authors:   Stasis Center for Practical Philosophy, European University at St. Petersburg (EUSPb), Russia, Kostyleva Elena
Published: December 2024

The article deals with the original version of psychoanalysis by Alexander Gorsky
(1886–1943), a philosopher of Russian cosmism. His psychoanalytic theory is considered in close connection with the teachings of Nikolai Fedorov. It is discovered that
the general principle of Gorsky’s theory lies in resurrection as the main idea of Russian cosmism. Gorsky puts forward three theses about the psychoanalysis of Sigmund Freud: autoerotic mirroring, intracorporeal space and organ projection by
Ernst Kapp. Gorsky’s theory of psychoanalysis is based on the positivistic premise
that it is possible to see without eyes, with the help of receptors located in the skin.
On this hypothesis, Gorsky builds his theory of the “phallic pupil,” in the center of
which is the body, which not only sees by many phalluses, but also produces images
that are not inferior to real ones. The most important figure here is the muse, the
virgin, the woman.
Gorsky’s psychoanalytic theory is placed in the general context of psychoanalytic
discourse and contemporary thought about sexuality. The general mimetic origins of
the theories of Gorsky, Sigmund Freud, and René Girard are taken as a theoretical
framework. It is disclosed that the mimetic principle is preserved in Gorsky’s theory,
but he moves it into the sphere of the non-material. A hypothesis is put forward that
with this gesture Gorsky frees up space for the magnetic-cloud eroticism he invented,
as earthly and practical, but free from original sin. It is also noted that, being no
less original and radical than the ideological legacy of Wilhelm Reich and Georges
Bataille, and comparable in degree of originality to the theories of Paul Preciado or
Catherine Malabu, Gorsky’s theory remains practically unknown.
From Mineralogy to Philology: Researching the Stone Anthropograms
Authors:   National Research University Higher School of Economics (HSE University), Khan Kate ,   Peoples’ Friendship University of Russia (RUDN University), Moscow, Russia
Published: December 2024

From Aristotle and Albert the Great and up to modern geological surveys the
studies of stones and minerals as non-human forms of existence turned out to be
more or less theoretically loaded with anthropomorphism. Stone as one of the first
materials for technical and writing tools (from the Stone Age) used to provide elementary and radically passive prototypes for the works of art. A special provocation to create art consists precisely in those precious stones and crystals that strike
the imagination as facts of beauty, bringing a person into a special state of mind
(fascination in terms of Caillois). In his concept of the fantastic and in classification of games, Caillois criticizes the structuralist interpretation of magical universalism: the involvement of any object in the magical practices of mana circulation
rather serves as a reflection of its specific objectification (Baudrillard) in modern
commodity-money relations, rather than reveals the prospect of understanding of
the function of the “demon of analogy.”
Due to Caillois’ argument against the concept of mimesis in the biological theories of the nineteenth century, we can better understand perspectivism in poststructuralist anthropology and adequately assess the philosophical and anthropological
claims of all kinds of hermeneutics of reading and writing as well. Paradoxically,
the same demon of analogy comes to the fore in the specific hermeneutics of reading texts, when we carry out disjunctive syntheses and build certain figures, or
anthropograms of meaning, which serve as serifs, reminders of the desired image
of ourselves. Imaginary anthropograms can lead to geophilia (Jeffrey Cohen) or
geophilosophy (Valery Podoroga), but in each case, one should bear in mind the risk
of falling into extremes—from hypostasis of fantastic hyperobjects, dreaming about
the greatness of epochs of Titans, to the transformation of raw material into faceted
souvenirs of a collector of trinkets.
Violent (Non)Reciprocity: Mimesis and Anti-Mimesis of Conflict
Authors:   Stasis Center for Practical Philosophy, European University at St. Petersburg (EUSPb), Russia, Kondakova Alina
Published: December 2024

Violence in its genesis is defined by René Girard as a purely human phenomenon,
which is conditioned by the ultimate identity of the subjects, the non-recognition
of which pushes them to establish a difference, which is impossible due to the illusory nature of the latter. Thus, the mimetic crisis (the crisis of differences), which is
almost losing its discontinuity, reveals only a homogeneous form of violence, and it
itself is endowed with hypostatic agency by Girard, which means that it’s impossible
to overcome the current situation of looping mutual violence from within. The root
of violence is what Girard defines as the mimesis of appropriation. The only way to
cope with the destructive effects of the human mimetic nature is an individual rejection of violence by imitating a transcendent model unattainable to mimetic rivalry,
which violates the principle of reciprocity of mimetism. Consequently, the heterogeneity of the subject necessary to get rid of striving to the extreme appears in Girardian theory only when the metaphysical dimension opens.
The author suggests a radical revision of the principles of mimetic theory. The
main method of redefining the foundations of mimetic theory turns out to be its
ontologization, which ultimately makes it possible to form a socio-political space for
resolving the mimetic crisis and to show the possibility of an alternative to the logic
of possession. Thus, during the reconstruction of the ontological basis of violence, it
is revealed that it is inherent primarily in being itself as part of the mechanism for
the production of being, and, consequently, it is neutral, which allows the author to
propose a project of an immanent way out of striving to the extreme, by establishing
the heterogeneity of both violence and the subject.

A crescente conscientização da sociedade com relação à responsabilidade socioambiental vem desencadeando uma transformação no meio industrial. A atenção às questões ambientais está sendo incorporada no cotidiano das organizações, mediante sistemas de gestão ambiental e práticas sustentáveis. Sendo assim, a implementação do marketing sustentável é considerada como uma importante ferramenta a ser abordada pelas empresas. O objetivo deste trabalho foi estudar do marketing sustentável na visão dos consumidores de produtos lácteos. Para atingir estes objetivos, a pesquisa contou com a aplicação de questionário online que foi respondido por 133 consumidores. Observou-se que os consumidores de lácteos apresentam preocupação com os aspectos ambientais e tem consciência de que são necessárias ações de sustentabilidade. Estes estão dispostos a modificarem a sua rotina e consideram a questão ambiental no momento da compra. Porém, eles apresentam, ainda, grande preocupação com o preço e com a regularidade da oferta dos produtos ecológicos. Verificou-se que os consumidores optam pelo produto que gera menos poluição ambiental quando podem fazer esta escolha. Conclui-se que é necessário fomentar ainda mais a sinergia entre a indústria, meio ambiente e o consumidor na definição de estratégias de produção e consumo que priorizem a valorização das questões ambientais.

Actinobacteria are Gram-positive bacteria known for forming filamentous structures named mycelium and hyphae. They stand out from other bacteria by their high production of secondary metabolites with antimicrobial properties. Composting sites are favorable to produce these metabolites due to the competition patterns held by the presence of a large number of microorganisms. The importance of actinobacteria turns out in the multidrug-resistant bacteria scenario, a consequence of selective pressure on pathogenic bacteria, directly related to the wrong antibiotic administration. This research aimed to evaluate the antimicrobial potential of actinobacteria isolated from composting soil against five clinical importance pathogenic bacteria. The experiment used the direct sensibility test method, and the antimicrobial potential was verified by the presence of an inhibition halo around the bacterial colonies. Between the isolates, seven strains showed inhibitory effects on the growth of at least one of the pathogenic bacteria tested. The results of this research demonstrated that actinobacteria can be an important source of antimicrobial biomolecules which can be used to develop new drugs.
