Authors: Kavinkumar P.
Published: January 2022

In this paper the researcher attempts to study about the postmodern ethnicity and psyche in the novel The English Patient. After exploring the status of World War II in the different debates that surround the concept of the ‘postmodernism’, the most obvious point is that even while the conflict was still underway, the second World War was identified as a crisis of modernity and also the loss of psyche. Since 1945, the scattering for survival and the killing process is often repeated. People started to hide their identity for survival after the second world war. After modernism the people started to problematize the problems. This novel The English Patient has the flavours of the interesting story line and suspicious past with some actual historical events. The novel also has the fragments of narratives, lives etc. Linda Hutcheon the postmodern theorist talks about the postmodern aspects like historiographic metafiction, self-reflective and intertextuality. This novel has the genre of Historiographic metafiction. The postmodern writings emphasis the earnestness of the historical records and they also allow us to think differently about the historical events. It relies heavily on parody of historical characters. This paper also studies about the most silenced character the English patient, so it comes under the positive postmodernism. In the postmodern aspect the researcher intends to find what made them to lose their identity, culture and why the characters suffered both physically and mentally. So, the post-world war period brings the changes in the San Girolamo villa of Italy which tells the most impactful story of the characters. According to the postmodernism it depends on the race, class, gender, and ethnicity what we consider as the proper knowledge.

Published: January 2022

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kinerja keuangan dengan analisis rasio pada perusahaan telekomunikasi yang terdaftar di Bursa Efek Indonesia yaitu PT Telkomsel Tbk, PT Indosat Tbk dan PT Smartfren Telecom Tbk. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif yang menggunakan data sekunder yaitu data keuangan yang diambil dari Bursa Efek Indonesia. Alat analisis yang digunakan yaitu berupa analisis rasio. Rasio yang digunakan ada empat rasio yaitu rasio likuiditas yang terdiri dari current ratio, quick ratio, lalu rasio aktivitas yang terdiri dari receivable turnover, inventory turnover, dan total asset turnover, selanjutnya rasio solvabilitas yang terdiri dari debt to asset ratio dan debt to equity ratio, dan yang terakhir adalah rasio profitabilitas yang terdiri dari net profit margin, return on investment, dan return on equity. Dari hasil penelitian didapatkan bahwa jika dihitung dari rasio likuiditas, maka dapat dilihat dari current ratio yang menunjukkan bahwa ketiga perusahaan ini berada di dalam kondisi yang buruk karena rasionya berada di bawah 200 persen, begitu pula dalam quick ratio. Dalam rasio likuiditas, perusahaan tersebut dikatakan baik jika rasionya mencapai 200 persen karena itu berarti 200 aktiva lancar dapat menutupi 100 hutang lancar, yang berarti memiliki perbandingan sebesar 2:1. Jadi jika ditinjau dari rasio likuiditas maka ketiga perusahaan ini masih belum bisa dikatakan sebagai perusahaan yang likuid. Jika dilihat dari rasio aktivitasnya, ketiga perusahaan ini memiliki rasio yang bagus yang berarti ketiga perusahaan ini dapat mengelola piutang, persediaan, dan total aset dengan cukup baik. Jika dilihat dari rasio solvabilitasnya maka dapat disimpulkan bahwa hanya PT Telkomsel Tbk yang dapat dikatakan sebagai perusahaan yang solvable. Begitu juga dengan rasio profitabilitasnya, yang menunjukkan bahwa PT Telkomsel Tbk dapatmemperoleh laba yang lebih banyak jika dibandingkan dengan PT Indosat Tbk dan PT Smartfren Telecom Tbk. Jadi dari sini dapat kita simpulkan bahwa PT Telkomsel Tbk mempunyai kinerja keuangan yang terbaik.
Fauna in Art and Reality: from the Early Iron Age to the Early Middle Ages (based on materials from the Middle Desna Basin)
Authors:   Bryansk State University named after Academician I. G. Petrovski, Shinakov Evgenii , Chubur Arthur ,   Bryansk State University named after Academician I. G. Petrovski
Published: January 2022

The authors aimed to compare the real animal world of a particular region and its reflection in the minds of people of different historical eras, represented in works of applied art and small plastic arts. The choice of the Middle Desna region was determined by its transitional character for Eastern Europe in almost all historical and archaeological periods (both in physical-geographical and ethno-cultural aspects). The authors considered materials of the Yukhnovo culture of the early Iron Age, the Great Migrations, the “antiquity of the Antae”, as well as the beginning of the authentically early Slavic period (Volyntsevo-Romny antiquities). The greatest contamination of the real animal world (first of domestic) is observed in the early Iron Age. Later, in applied art, masters gradually would withdraw from the reality into a higher degree of abstraction, into the realm of mythological and totemic-religious images, in which, however, at times, some real representatives of the fauna were fancifully reflected, both typical and exotic ones for the region. The image of horse is a continuous image in the region — from ceramic figurines and ridge attachments of the end of the 1st millennium BC to the time of the Old Rus. In addition, evolution is noted from simple images associated with a species to composite images — “chimeras”, “shapeshifters” — combining features of various animals, sometimes with the inclusion of anthropomorphic elements (binary opposition “human-animal”).

Published: January 2022

The paper analyzes the issue of the spatial and ecological niche of the nomadic population of the south of the Kiev principality (“Black Hats”), as well as the dynamics of the settling in the Ros’ river basin in the 11th—13th centuries. An important part in the spatial organization of the Ros’ river basin was the multi-row system of long walls, which divided the steppe zone into closed sectors. Nomadic burials were not discovered yet in the large northern sector (“Perepetovo Pole”), it was used as a buffer between nomads and farmers of the Stugna river basin. The area of burial mounds concentration is characterized by a lower amount of precipitation and a higher winter temperature, which makes it suitable for winter pastures. The more humid northwestern part with single burials was used for seasonal migrations in summer. There are four main episodes of the nomad influx in the Ros’ river basin detected. The wave of the 11 th century were Torks and Pechenegs, they occupied the space between the Rosava and the Dnieper. Migrants of the 12 th century wave were added to the Rosava basin, but they also left burials near Vyshgorod. The third big wave of the Cuman origin came in 1223—1241. They occupy both the main area of the “Black Hats” and new sectors along western Ros’. The Yablunivka burial ground of the 2nd half of the 13th—14th centuries should be withdrawn from the list of the “Our Pagans” sites. It arose after the migration of a group of the North Caucasian population during the Golden Horde stage.
Furs, Feathers and Flowers in European Medieval Costume: Based on Materials from Manuscript Miniatures
Authors:   The Russian Academy of Sciences Library, Zhabreva Anna
Published: January 2022

Miniatures of medieval European manuscripts are considered a valuable pictorial source on the 13th—15th centuries costume history. The particular question of the application of such natural materials as furs, feathers and flowers in a costume is investigated in this article. The author selected and analyzed fragments of miniatures giving an idea of which furs and feathers, how and in what quantities were used by representatives of different classes. A significant number of images of clothes and hats trimmed with fur were revealed, much less — on the use of feathers, and very few and extremely conventional — of flowers. This information is compared with documentary evidence and fragments from the Middle Ages literary works. The author comes to the conclusion that a great number of surviving manuscripts, many of which are currently available in digitized form, make it possible to collect a representative array of images that provide answers to the most frequent questions about the evolution of European costume in the Middle Ages.

1733 bone fragments were excavated at the Rus layer of the archeological site Igren-8 placed near the Samara river falling into the Dnipro river in 2018. 1103 fossils were identified by their anatomical and species affiliation. Such sample is considered to be statistically sufficient to characterize the condition of animal husbandry in the settlement. Zoological material characteristics show that the cattle made up the absolute majority of the meat production consumed by the settlers. Hunting was paid insignificant attention. The cows take the first place according to the number of the found fossils (581 bone fragments). The small cattle take the second place (387 bone fragments). The swine take the third place (78 bone fragments). The fourth and the fifth places are taken by the horse (8 bone fragments) and the dog (3 bone fragments) accordingly. The elk, deer, hare, wolf, beaver and ferret fossils were identified too, with 46 bone fragments. The sex and age characteristics of the cattle suggest milk cattle breeding. The small cattle were bred for milk and wool both. The age of the killed animals and their teeth condition denotes the sufficient feed base at the site. The height of the cows at the withers ranges from 109 cm to 122.7 cm. The height of the sheep at the withers ranges from 58.6 cm to 65.9 cm. The height of the horse was 138.8 cm; also it was medium-legged according to the leg thickness.

Early Hungarian burials, previously being unidentified in the North-West Black Sea region, were confidently localized in this territory over the past decade. Among them, there is a plane grave near the Frumuşica village, discovered occasionally on the right bank of the Middle Dniester in 1975 and published in 1981 as the Golden Horde burial. The inventory consisted of a knife, a firesteel with fire flint, bone plates on the bow, arrowheads, ornamented bone plates on the quiver, a bone end of the arrowhead. Analysis of the materials showed that the complex from Frumuşica is the burial of a warrior-archer from the early Hungarian migrations period. The commonality of the details of the funerary rite, the identity of the items of the inventory and the chronology of things make it possible to quite definitely attribute this site to the group of Hungarian graves of the first third of the 10th centuries, studied in the North-West Black Sea region).

The article considers the main cultural and geographical patterns which affected the development of military affairs in Rus. The state of Rus had the frontier cultural and geographical location. This fact determined the special way of the development of military affairs. The consideration of differences between sedentary and nomadic concepts of military affairs from the tenth to the first half of thirteenth century receives an important place in the article. The concept of symmetric and asymmetric responses is suggested for identifying regularity of military affairs development. The given concept is based on the ideas from Arnold J. Toynbee’s civilization theory. Three main directions of cultural influence/interinfluence were identified and their features and role in the development of military affairs of Rus were highlighted in the research. This development was simultaneously imposed to two opposite challenges — nomadic and sedentary ones that led to a combination of opposite responses and formation of an intermediate way in which main features of both concepts could be found.

The authors have summarized the materials from a number of archaeological sites accumulated during many years of investigations by several generations of archaeologists in the Bolshaya Babka river valley. Despite their different quality of exploration and documentation of the research, the following areas were brought to light: general trends in exploration of this territory in temporal and spatial dimensions, preferred locations for settlement in certain landscapes, its usage and perception by various ethnocultural communities. The authors managed to determine some interdependencies between the river valley landscape, shaped by fluvial processes with frequent streamflow changes, and its usage dynamics. It was also discovered that stable flood land regions played an important role; they were not exposed to constant degradations in its widest segment — in its middle and lower reaches. It explains the multilayer nature of the most sites occupied by the population with the similar pattern of economic activity over the wide time line — from the Bronze Age to the Middle Ages. Moreover, some naturally emerged within the same landscape lines of communication with neighboring settlement enclaves had to play a significant role in determination of locations for residential areas.

Authors: Balyer Aydın , Bakay Mehmet Emin
Published: January 2022

Academic inbreeding is a recruitment practice for universities of hiring their own graduates as future academicians. Despite its benefits, it may have damaging effects on the academy. From this point of view, this qualitative research investigated whether academic inbreeding brings benefits to universities or poses risks. It was also purposed to determine how academicians define academic inbreeding and experience it in their daily practices. To this end, twenty academicians were interviewed, and the data were analyzed with content analysis technique. Results revealed that while few academicians underlined its benefits, most academicians manifested its risks and negative experiences. Thus, it is recommended that mobility among academic staff should be encouraged.
Geração de valor econômico e sustentabilidade financeira em instituições do ensino superior brasileiro

Published: January 2022

Objective: The article aims to analyze the creation of economic value, as well as the value vectors and the impacts caused by the number of students, value of tuition and costs on the economic results achieved in a higher education institution (HEI).Methodology/approach: This is a case study with adaptation of the EVA (Economic Value Added) model and the use of multivariate econometric analysis.Relevance/originality: Despite the representativeness of private organizations in the educational sector in the Brazilian economy, academic articles were not identified dealing with their capacity to create value, which is one of the necessary conditions for self-sustained growth of an organization.The main results: The University Center was able to generate value in the recent period. The disaggregated analysis showed the good performance of engineering and that most courses in the business area have destroyed the organization's value.Theoretical/methodological contributions: An incursion into the theory of corporate finance made it possible to adapt methods and procedures that led to an adequate application to the study of value generation in a HEI. The study can be replicated and contributes for HEIs to incorporate the dimension of value generation in their management model. Social contributions to management: Two segments were identified that demand differentiated strategies to improve the IES' market position. In the business area, given the competition, a policy of low prices is imposed, with revision/consolidation of the offer of courses. In the healthcare and engineering segment, the strategy to be followed is not price competition, but differentiation, with the pursuit of excellence being crucial.

Preeclampsia is a pregnancy complication characterized by proteinuria, hypertension, hypoxia as well an increased systemic inflammatory response. It affects 5 to 10% of all births and is a leading factor in fetal and maternal morbidity and death. Ficus elastica L. leaves are known to have natural compounds with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. This research assessed the potential of F. elastica leaf extract (FEE) as anti-inflammatory agent in a hypoxic-induced human endothelial cell line (EA.hy926) as preeclampsia model. F. elastica leaves were extracted using 70% ethanol. Cytotoxic assay of the FEE in different concentrations (3.13 to 100 µg/ml) against EA.hy926 was done using MTS assay. The FEE’s anti-inflammatory activity was measured with ELISA for the TNF-α and IL-10 parameters. The FEE did not cause cytotoxicity to the EA.hy926 cells, with viability above 80% at the highest concentration. The FEE could decrease the pro-inflammatory TNF-α level and increase the IL-10 level as anti-inflammatory markers in the preeclampsia model at significance level p < 0.05. This study suggests that FEE is a safe alternative herbal medicine for preeclampsia treatment.
Intersectionality and the Interpretation of Past Pandemics
Authors: Yaussy Samantha
Published: January 2022

Intersectionality refers to the potential for multiple axes of identity to overlap and interact within a single individual, whose lived experiences are further affected by structural forms of oppression that are perpetuated within their society. Intersectionality has been adapted by a variety of social science disciplines exploring the negative effects of multiple marginalization and systemic inequality in living populations, but remarkably few intersectional studies of health or pandemics in the past have been produced in bioarchaeology. Bioarchaeologists, specifically, are uniquely positioned to contribute to interdisciplinary discourse by expanding the contextual and temporal purviews of intersectionality scholarship, which currently focuses primarily on living populations from Western, industrialized contexts. The purpose of this review is to encourage and facilitate intersectionality research within bioarchaeology. To accomplish this goal, the article is divided into three sections: the first section provides a general overview of intersectionality, the second section discusses examples of intersectional scholarship from related disciplines that address health disparities and modern pandemics, and the third section considers the ways in which bioarchaeologists might integrate intersectionality in our empirical research on health and disease in the past. Given the potentially daunting task of using bioarchaeological data to investigate intersectionality and health in the past, the third section also highlights three quantitative methodologies that intersectionality scholars have used to investigate the independent, additive effects of individual social identities as well as the multiplicative effects of those same identities as they operate in conjunction with each other to produce patterns of health outcomes in living populations.
Um Framework para Avaliação de Transparência em Portais de Ecossistemas de Software a partir da Experiência de Desenvolvedor
Authors: Zacarias Rodrigo Oliveira , Santos Rodrigo Pereira dos
Published: January 2022

As interfaces que amparam a Web social (e.g., portais Web, fóruns, redes sociais etc.) desempenham um papel importante dentro de um ecossistema de software (ECOS), tendo em vista que facilitam o acesso à informação e a interação entre os desenvolvedores externos à sua plataforma tecnológica comum. Essas interfaces formam os chamados portais de ECOS. Nesse cenário, o conceito de transparência permite que os desenvolvedores acessem, entendam e aprendam os elementos e processos no contexto de desenvolvimento colaborativo. A ausência de transparência nos portais de ECOS pode trazer problemas tanto na comunicação entre os desenvolvedores como no entendimento das informações fornecidas. Isso afeta a Experiência de Desenvolvedor (DX, do inglês Developer Experience) no ECOS, podendo trazer como consequência a falta de engajamento entre os desenvolvedores externos na plataforma. Em casos mais graves, esse fato pode culminar na "morte" do ECOS. Nesse contexto, o objetivo desta pesquisa é desenvolver um framework para a avaliação da transparência em portais de ECOS a partir da DX. A base desse framework será constituída pela aplicação de heurísticas e/ou metaheurísticas para avaliar a transparência, que serão elaboradas ao longo deste trabalho. Para isso, é proposta uma abordagem metodológica composta de revisões de literatura, experimentos com desenvolvedores para monitoramento da DX e avaliação com especialistas. Esta pesquisa almeja como contribuições a criação do framework, para ser utilizado por profissionais de organizações que formam um ECOS ou por pesquisadores da área, o entendimento de como a transparência nos portais de ECOS afeta a DX e um conjunto de heurísticas e/ou metaheurísticas para transparência em portais de ECOS.
