A study of pre-service English language teachers' engagement with faculty-school collaboration at the English fest
Authors: Ahmet Önal , Nihan Erdemir , Derya Coşkun
Published: December 2023

In recent years, collaboration between faculty and schools has widely drawn attention in teacher education. However, little is currently known about the impact of faculty-school collaboration on pre-service teacher (PST) learning in the field of ELT. For this purpose, this study aims to investigate PSTs' insights of the English Fest event in terms of faculty-school collaboration, professional, personal, and pedagogical benefits, challenges, and their willingness to volunteer again. The study adopted a qualitative research design, and data were collected through open-ended survey questions with 34 PSTs who participated in the English Fest event. The findings of thematic analysis indicated that PSTs reported positive perceptions of the English Fest event, highlighting the benefits in terms of bridging their theoretical knowledge with practice. However, the study also revealed that PSTs faced some challenges during the event, including material development and lack of support from in-service teachers. Nevertheless, PSTs were willing to participate in future events and suggested improvements, such as more frequent events, better organizational planning, and more support in terms of materials and technological equipment. To conclude, the study contributes to the benefits and challenges of collaborative events from perspectives of PSTs and provides insights for improving future English Fest events.
Response of Ecosystem and Eco-Economic System to the Land use Structure Change in Tourism Typical Town: A Case Study in Yanyang Town of Guangdong Province, China
Authors: Wang Zhimin , Shariff Nurhazani Mohd
Published: December 2023

Purpose:  The main purpose of this paper is to explore the relationship among rural tourism development, land use structure and ecosystem, and provide decision-making basis for the sustainable development of rural tourism destination.

 

Theoretical framework:  Based on the theory of sustainable development, this paper explores the sustainable development of rural tourism destinations with the framework of the relationship among ecosystem, economy and society.

 

Design/Methodology/Approach: The research methodology used quantitative analysis. Taking Yanyang Town as the study area, based on the land use interpretation data from satellite remote sensing in 2004, 2014 and 2020, with the help of land use structure change index, ESV evaluation model and EEH index, the change characteristics of land use structure, and the response of ecosystem and eco-economic system in Yanyang Town were analyzed.

 

Findings:  Rural tourism is more conducive to the coordination development of rural ecosystem and economy than traditional agricultural production. However, in the process of tourism development, it is very important to reduce the interference to land use, protect ecological land, maintain the continuity and complexity of land use, enhance the ESV of land use, and pay attention to the excavation of ecosystem value and cultural connotation.

 

Research, Practical & Social implications:  It provides a basis for the optimizing land use structure, improving ecosystem service function, adjusting regional development model and coordinating economic development and ecological protection.

 

Originality/Value:  This research explores the influence mechanism of land structure-ecology-economy system in rural tourism destinations, which enriches the research results of rural sustainable development.
Addressing the quantitative skill shortage in the social sciences
Authors: Cotterell Gerard , Von Randow Martin
Published: December 2023

​Increasingly social science graduates in New Zealand, especially those in the subject areas of sociology and political studies, are graduating without essential skills in the area of quantitative data analysis. In an attempt to address these issues, the research team at the Centre of Methods and Policy Application in the Social Sciences (COMPASS) at the University of Auckland have developed two initiatives. The first of these, the New Zealand Social Statistics Network (www.nzssn.org.nz) organises short courses in research methods training. The second, the New Zealand Social Science Data Service (www.nzssds.org.nz), provides secondary data for analysis and teaching resources linked to quantitative research methods.

It’s with pleasure that the New Zealand Association of Scientists presents this issue of the New Zealand Science Review in collaboration with the Riddet Institute. The articles arising from the Agri-Food Summit meeting in April this year give insight into the research and educational resources necessary for a successful and sustainable agri-food sector in New Zealand. As mentioned in our guest editorial, the Summit speakers were selected to bring somewhat disparate views together on the topic under discussion. The result graphically illustrates the tranformational changes necessary to fully exploit New Zealand’s potential in agri-foods and the importance of growing our collaborative research and educational networks internationally

New Zealand’s bibliometric record in research and development: 1990–2008
Authors: Hendy Shaun
Published: December 2023

Over the last two decades, the New Zealand government has sought to achieve improved outcomes in science and technology through structural reform, rather than increased levels of investment in the sector. How successful has this strategy been? Here we look at New Zealand’s bibliometric output over the last two decades, using the Thompson Reuters Web of Science database. The database reveals that bibliometric productivity has remained static over this time period, with changes in publication rate driven by increasing levels of full–time equivalent staff members, principally through growth in the tertiary sector. Although the citation impact of university publications has increased, the citation impact of the Crown research institutes has grown at a similar, if not faster, rate, suggesting that the performance-based research fund is not responsible for this increase.
The giant leap to humankind
Authors: Corballis Michael
Published: December 2023

Penny (2009) urges that biologists stress more strongly the biological continuity between great apes and humans. Besides stressing genetic similarities, he suggests that great apes also share psychological capacities, including language and tool use. I argue that he underestimates the psychological differences. There is no evidence that great apes have anything approaching human language, or human technological capacity. A main ingredient of human cognition is recursion, which lifted communication to true combinatorial language and simple tool use to advanced combinatorial technology. Recursion may also explain the combinatorial structure of human memory, imagination, and theory of mind. Part of the key, as Penny recognises, may lie in the trajectory of human brain growth, but there is still much to understand in how micro-tweaking of the genome achieved such dramatic differences between ape and human.
The continuity of mind, from great apes to humans
Authors: Penny David
Published: December 2023

​It is a central prediction from mainstream evolutionary biology that there is a continuous set of intermediate states in the mental abilities from an ape-human ancestor to modern humans. A quick analysis is given to the problem introduced by Rene Descartes of the supposed gap between mind matter and physical matter, the former distinguishing humans from all other animals. A three-pronged analysis is then given that revolves around: (1) the continuity of mind from young children to adults; (2) the similarity of measured mental abilities between young great apes and young children at similar stages of development; and (3) the observation that there appear to be no unique genes in the human genome for mental abilities (including for ‘wisdom and intelligence’). The components that are required for language are then analysed, and important precursors found in the great apes. The conclusion is that the best supported hypothesis, especially in a Bayesian framework, is for a continuum in mental states between an ancestral ape and modern humans. There are a range of predictions from this model that can, and have been, tested.
La traducción de las expresiones militares estandarizadas en la películas del género bélico
Authors: Gordo Peleato Rosario
Published: December 2023

When the average Spanish audience watches a dubbed war or military-content film, they are seldom aware of the lack of content synchrony often to be found in dubbed military jargon. This article focuses on the audiovisual translation of five different kinds of formulaic military expressions: standardized military expressions correctly translated according to their professional use, ‘pseudo-military’ standardized expressions, formulaic military expressions wrongly translated according to their professional use, the translation of ‘radio language’, and finally the translation of expressions of ‘military courtesy’. This research follows Relvance Theory (Sperber and Wison 1986, 1995) and specially Gutt’s (1991, 2000) investigation of translation phenomena from a relevance-theoretical perspective. Our findings are that although many military fomulaic expressions have been incorrectly translated —with respect to their professional use— the audiovisual translation of formulaic military expressions can be considered valid as long as the surface characteristics of both expressions (source and target) are similar, and the military connotations of the Spanish dubbed expressions sound ‘military enough’ to activate in the Spanish audience their encyclopedic knowledge on this particular issue. In such cases the audiovisual translation is based on a comparison of interpretations and not on the classical reproduction of words.
Translating Colloquial Idioms/Metaphors in The Catcher in the Rye: A Comparison of Metaphorical Meaning Retention in the Spanish and Catalan Texts
Authors: O'Mara Michael
Published: December 2023

The use of colloquial idioms is one of the most unique and defining aspects of the idiolect of Holden Caulfield in The Catcher in the Rye. This research attempts to determine which of the two translations, Spanish and Catalan, retains more figurative/metaphorical meaning in their representations of such idioms. Our results would seem to suggest that the Catalan translation retains more figurative meaning. This translation employs on significantly more occasions lexicalized structures expressing similar metaphorical meaning, though differing in form while the Spanish translation, on significantly more occasions paraphrases or explains the idioms in question. This paper presents new findings as, to our knowledge, no studies have been carried out comparing the Spanish and Catalan texts in terms of figurative/metaphorical meaning retention in their representations of Holden Caulfield's colloquial idioms.
“Shakespeare’s Plausible Community: The First Act of Titus Andronicus and its Kydian Precedent”
Authors: Coral Escolà Jordi
Published: December 2023

This article re-examines the relationship between Thomas Kyd’s The Spanish Tragedy and Shakespeare’s Titus Andronicus. In the past decades the original credit of these two revenge plays of the 1590s has been restored. However, their parallel rediscovery has obscured the originality of Shakespeare’s first tragedy, which is often presented as an inferior derivative of The Spanish Tragedy. As a result, the historical significance of Shakespeare’s new representation of the self in the community has been insufficiently recognized. Shakespeare assimilated the Kydian discovery of character as the product of interactive dramatic context and developed the representation of the social basis of individual identity, an identity that grows even as it reveals itself in dialogical action. The tragic expression of this revolutionary conception of selfhood is revenge. In this perspective, Titus Andronicus ceases to appear as imitative melodrama and becomes a play that reinvents tragedy for the English Renaissance.
Dramatising the Conflicts of Nation and the Body: Displacement in Charlotte and Emily Brontë's Poetry of ‘Home’ and ‘Exile’ Dualities
Authors: Alexandra Guimaraes Paula
Published: December 2023

For Gregory Orr, the best way to respond to the chaotic unpredictability of our being is through the personal lyric because it “dramatizes inner and outer experience” by “clinging to embodied being”. The self in the personal lyric of the Brontés (Charlotte and Emily) is either ‘home’ or ‘away’, facing internal or external division or fracture, and in search of a prospective identity (personal and national) or a chosen location. The conflicts of nation (whether they are presented in a real or fictionalised manner) are simultaneously reflected in the conflicts of the body itself; and the word ‘home’ —a metaphor for both ‘place’ and ‘being’— assumes different but related nuances (from the familiar hearth and the exalted homeland to the poet’s mind, Nature or God’s bosom). There is an evasive attempt to overcome social and political coercions that create both confinement and displacement, but whether the Brontés choose to stay at home or are compelled to leave, they remain ‘exiles’. Ultimately, for these poets, it will be exilic displacement which will act as a ‘spur to creativity’ and define authorship.
'Keeping Going': Alquimia, violencia y sacrificio en la poesía de Seamus Heany
Authors: Raez Padilla Juan
Published: December 2023

EI presente artículo aborda, en primera instancia, ciertos valores de la simbología de la alquimia para, a posteriori, aplicarlos al estudio de la poesía de Seamus Heaney. Se destacan aspectos tales como la interdependencia entre materialidad terrena y espiritualidad aérea, entre el movimiento ascendente y el movimiento descendente, as´´i como la sublimación de lo puro en y a través de la impureza y la suciedad. A la luz de estas consideraciones simbólico-alquímicas se analiza en la obra de Heaney —especialmente en su poema “Keeping Going”—, entre otras, la imaginería del barro, el estiércol y la cal, desembocando esta última en la discusión sobre el simbolismo de la alquimia en la poesía del Premio Nobel norirlandés: la transmutación de lo sucio en beldad y blancura; la destilación de esperanza en la congoja; la evocación de la violencia y el sacrificio no desde una perspectiva inmovilista, irresolutiva, sino desde la creencia en la transmutaci6ón alquímica aprehendida en la magia del universo cotidiano.

Margaret More Roper: A Survey of Her Writings
Authors: Olivares-Merino Eugenio M.
Published: December 2023

As a contribution to the forthcoming 500th anniversary of the publication of Margaret Roper (née More)’s A Devout Treatise (1524-2024), the purpose of this article is to make a survey of her written production (public and private), including those works that were preserved as well as those others that were written but have been lost. The trial and death of Thomas More necessarily resulted in the loss of documents and writings, not only by More but by his daughter too. Sixteenth-century biographies of Thomas More are the main source of information about his daughter Margaret (1505-1544) and her written production. These early biographers were clearly concerned with the promotion of the figure of More, but they did not let pass the opportunity to ponder and testify to the scholarly excellence of his eldest daughter. This is particularly the case of Nicholas Harpsfield (1557) and, more especially, Thomas Stapleton (1588). Cresacre More’s biography of More (Douai, 1631), even though in general terms it offers no original information, has also been used in this study. Another important corpus of information is the epistolary writings of Margaret and her father, as well as of Erasmus. Various other documents subject to recent literary criticism are also consulted.
A Look at the Nativization of Bangladeshi English through Corpus Data
Authors: Suárez-Gómez Cristina , Seoane Elena
Published: December 2023

This paper explores Bangladeshi English, a relative newcomer to the family of world Englishes. First, we chart the evolution of English in Bangladesh across several phases of development. These show that a number of political and ideological factors make the evolution of English in Bangladesh unique in that it wavers between the status of an exonormative foreign language (English in Bangladesh) and the development of a local variety (Bangladeshi English). From a linguistic perspective, recent studies agree that the current level of proficiency is very low, with a dearth of teachers and an absence of quality education. Second, we examine the degree of nativization of Present-day Bangladeshi English on the basis of (i) its postcolonial evolution and the more recent effects of globalization, following the most popular models of analysis (the Dynamic Model and the Extra- and Intra-Territorial Forces Model), and (ii) linguistic evidence obtained through the analysis of a selection of linguistic features associated with this variety, as represented in the GloWbE corpus.
Ulûmü’l-Kur’ân Kaynaklarında “Kur’an’da Neshin Kısımları” Başlığındaki Çelişki
Authors: ENSARİ Abdurrahman
Published: December 2023

Öz

Tilâveti mensûh ayetlerin önemli bazı `Ulûmü’l-Kur’ân kaynaklarında “Kur’an’da neshin kısımları” gibi bir başlık altında ele alınmış olması çeşitli soru işaretlerinin zihne takılmasına neden olmuştur. Lafzî tevâtür derecesine ulaşmamış, tilâveti mensûh ayetlere Kur’an denebilir mi? Bu ayetler Kur’an’da yer almadığı halde böyle bir taksime gerek var mı? “Kur’an’da neshin kısımları” ifadesindeki “Kur’an” kelimesinden kastedilen kavramsal anlamdaki Kur’an değil mi?

Yapılan araştırmada bu tür sorulara tatmin edici cevapların bulunamamış olması, böyle bir çalışmanın yapılmasına neden olmuştur. Bu anlamda çalışmanın alana yeni bir şey katacağı düşünülmektedir.

Çalışmada önce giriş mahiyetinde Kur’an ve nesih kavramları hakkında kısa bir bilgi arz edilmiş, sonra “Kur’an’da neshin kısımları” gibi başlıklar altında verilen bilgi sunulmuş, ardından bu bilginin başlıkla uyumlu olup olmadığı ortaya konmuş ve nihayet genel bir değerlendirme ile makale sonuçlandırılmıştır.

“Kur’an’da neshin kısımları” gibi başlıklar altında zikredilen bilginin başlıkla uyumlu olmadığı, tevâtür şartının tahakkuk etmediği tilâveti mensûh ayetlerin böyle bir başlık altında zikredilmiş olmasının isabetli olmadığı, başlıktaki “Kur’an” kelimesinden kastedilenin kavramsal anlamdaki Kur’an olmadığı, böyle bir başlık yerine, “neshin kısımları” gibi genel bir başlık kullanmanın daha isabetli olacağı sonucuna varılmıştır.
The Influence on Anxiety and Avoidant Coping on Probable Cannabis Use Disorder
Authors: Blessing Alexis , Russell Patricia , Stout Madison , Barrera-Barker Juan , Morissette Sandra
Published: December 2023

Objective: Individuals with anxiety frequently use cannabis to cope and are at greater risk for developing probable cannabis use disorder (CUD). Previous literature suggests avoidant coping styles are associated with higher anxiety levels and risk for problematic cannabis use, while action-oriented coping is associated with lower anxiety and problematic cannabis use. No studies have examined whether anxiety and action- oriented coping or avoidant coping interact to influence risk for CUD, which was the aim of the present study. Method: College students were recruited as part of a cross-sectional study on cannabis use. Participants (N = 371; 72.2% female) completed the Depression Anxiety and Stress Subscale (DASS-21), Cannabis Use Disorder Identification Test-Revised (CUDIT-R), and the Brief-COPE (B-COPE). Results: The data were analyzed using logistic moderation analysis. After controlling for gender, anxiety was a positive significant predictor of probable CUD, but action-oriented coping and avoidant coping were not. The interaction between anxiety and avoidant coping on probable CUD was significant, indicating that participants with high avoidant coping (regardless of high or low anxiety) and those with high anxiety (even with low avoidant coping) were more likely to have probable CUD than those with both low anxiety and low avoidant coping. No significant interaction was observed with action-oriented coping. Conclusions: Results suggest that avoidant coping, but not action-oriented coping, influences the relationship between anxiety and risk for probable CUD. Findings emphasize the importance of targeting both anxiety and avoidant coping when considering risk for probable CUD.

Published: December 2023

Celem niniejszego artykułu jest odpowiedź na pytanie, jakie są skutki nieujęcia budowy składowiska odpadów w wojewódzkim planie gospodarki odpadami. Aby na nie odpowiedzieć, konieczne jest przedstawienie charakteru prawnego wojewódzkiego planu gospodarki odpadami i ukazanie jego roli w kontekście budowy szczególnego rodzaju obiektu budowlanego, jakim jest składowisko odpadów. W artykule postawiono tezę o kształtującym charakterze WPGO, skoro ustawodawca nakazuje organowi odmówić wydania pozwolenia na budowę składowiska odpadów, jeżeli budowa ta nie jest określona w wojewódzkim planie gospodarki odpadami. Zwrócono uwagę na złożoność prawną budowy składowiska odpadów, wymagającą od organu administracji budowlanej stosowania dwóch reżimów prawnych: prawa budowlanego i prawa ochrony środowiska.

Study of the structure of yttrium-based nanoporous ceramic materials
Authors: Kapustin R. D. , Uvarov V. I. , Kirillov A. O. , Koputsky V. O.
Published: December 2023

Porous ceramic materials with high filtration performance are widely used in conditions of high chemical, thermal and radiation loads. The results of studying the structure and morphology of the pore space of ceramic membranes are presented. Ultradispersed refractory powder Y2O3 was used as a main component-filler. The synthesis was carried out using compaction, technological combustion and self-propagating high-temperature synthesis. The use of ultradisperse sintering additives with highly developed surface (MgO — 5 μm, SiC — 3, SiO2 — 5 μm) allowed us to ensure the energy efficiency of synthesis of high- porous ceramic materials at low temperatures. Analysis of the structure and pore space using mercury porometry and alternative methods showed that the average pore size in the synthesized 3D matrix composite material based on yttrium orthosilicate matrix with yttrium oxide filler is 1.1 μm, the equivalent hydraulic pore diameter being about 100 nm. The difference is attributed to the variability of cross sections and high tortuosity of pore channels. Since the density of the material is 2.3 g/cm3 and the compressive strength is about 2 MPa, it can be easily machined with carbide tools being a promising material for manufacturing products with complex shapes. The obtained results can be used in developing energy-efficient technologies of one-stage production of yttrium oxide-based filters with high porosity to be used under conditions of exposure to radiation, aggressive media and high temperatures.

Constraints to community empowerment: A study of communities around forests in Pelalawan Regency, Riau Province
Authors: Herman Herman , Susilowati Indah , Astuti Retno Sunu , Warsono Hardi
Published: December 2023

The empowerment of village communities around the forest is called the Plants of Life program by the Regulation of the Minister of Environment and Forestry Number P.12/Menlhk-II/2015 concerning Industrial Plantation Forest Development where the community is entitled to 20% of the HTI area. However, this is very contradictory to the community in Pelalawan Regency where empowerment through plants of life still adopts the pattern of giving cash. The purpose of this study is to analyze and explain the obstacles to empowering communities around the forest in Pelalawan Regency, Riau Province. This research uses a type of qualitative research with a case study approach that the author considers can answer the problems faced, namely related to obstacles to community empowerment around the forest. The type of research used is qualitative research with a case study approach.  The data analysis techniques used are interview, observation, and documentation techniques. The informants in this study were the village government, community leaders, and the company. The data used consists of primary and secondary data. The results of the discussion show the lack of community ability to change from consumptive patterns to ideal empowerment patterns. Then existing institutions in the village such as teams/cooperatives are unable to accommodate the welfare of the community, as well as regulations that are unable to accommodate empowerment.

Published: December 2023

Public governance is a concept that describes the government's ability to fulfill people's satisfaction and achieve people's prosperity. Currently, the government is required to improve risk management to deal with various challenges that come quickly, uncertainly, and minimize the possibility that they will occur in the future. One form of risk management is through Governance, Risk, and Control (GRC). The Disdukcapil of Bantul Regency issued a website-based service that is expected to be able to provide convenience for the people of Bantul who experience problems in processing population documents. This article aims to understand and describe the application of risk management principles carried out by the Disdukcapil of Bantul Regency during the COVID-19 pandemic using a qualitative approach using the case study method. The results showed that risk management carried out through website-based services had not been fully responded to by the community, so Disdukcapil delegated tasks by opening Adminduk services in sub-districts. This is in response to reducing queue buildup during the Covid-19 pandemic.

ЗАСТОСУВАННЯ НЕЙРОМЕРЕЖЕВИХ ТЕХНОЛОГІЙ ДЛЯ ІДЕНТИФІКАЦІЇ КОЕФІЦІЄНТА ВОЛОГОПРОВІДНОСТІ ҐРУНТУ

Інформація про вологопровідність може бути використана для математичного (кількісного) аналізу різних випадків перенесення ґрунтової вологи, що відбуваються в природних умовах. Сюди входить фільтрація води в ґрунті, потік води від рівня ґрунтових вод до поверхні, поглинання ґрунтової вологи та потік ґрунтової вологи до коренів рослин. Універсальною функцією, яка відображає вплив усіх факторів, що можуть впливати на енергетичний стан води в ґрунті, є водний потенціал. Як відомо, вода завжди рухається від більш високого потенціалу до більш низького. Діюча сила – це вільна енергія або градієнт водного потенціалу ґрунту, який відображає силу, що викликає ізотермічний потік води. В ізотермічних умовах компонентами водного потенціалу є капілярний тиск, осмотичні сили та сила тяжіння. В результаті, вологопровідність ненасичених ґрунтів не характеризується єдиним значенням(як у випадку транспорту насиченої води), а скоріше є функцією тиску всмоктування або вологості ґрунту. Комплексний характер залежності ґрунту і води в термінах «волога – потенційна енергія – провідна вологість» часто подається у вигляді емпіричних формул і графіків. Було запропоновано багато емпіричних формул для апроксимації функції вологопровідності, які відтворюють цю функцію через певні проміжки часу з певною точністю. В даний час актуальним є завдання розробки технологій, що забезпечують економічну та екологічну ефективність регулювання води в системах осушення та зволоження. У зв’язку з цим необхідно створити повну математичну модель ґрунту на основі рівняння вологопереносу, одним із основних параметрів якого є коефіцієнт вологопровідності. Метою статті є розробка нового методу визначення параметра водопровідності ненасиченої зони ґрунту на основі прямої багатошарової статичної штучної нейронної мережі, що сприяє підвищенню точності вимірювання. Коефіцієнт вологопровідності, який описує фізичні процеси в ґрунті, можна визначити за допомогою ряду емпіричних формул, які містять емпіричні коефіцієнти. Альтернативним методом є використання нейронної мережі, за допомогою якої на основі досліджуваного зразка визначається коефіцієнт вологопровідності або будь-який інший параметр ґрунту, залежно від експериментальних даних, встановлений на досить високе значення. точність. Нейронну мережу, навчену на навчальному наборі даних, можна успішно використовувати на незалежних тестових зразках для конкретного типу ґрунту, який не входить до навчального набору.

Важливою актуальною проблемою є аналіз та оцінка ефективності функціонування вузла електронної комунікаційної мережі з урахуванням повторної передачі загублених пакетів. Реальна можливість проведення такого аналізу – побудова адекватної математичної моделі вузла. Метою завдання є відшукання ймовірностей перебування описаної системи на множині станів, знаходження ймовірності відмови системи та ймовірності ініціювання пакету, що стримує трафік. Побудовано модель вузла електронної комунікаційної мережі, яка базується на математичному апарату систем масового обслуговування. Модель враховує зберігання копій переданих пакетів до моменту отримання підтвердження про вдалу доставку, інакше вони знову ставляться у чергу обслуговування. Отримано формули розрахунку ймовірностей станів такої системи.
“Creative Translation” as Political Defamation: Hanuš Kuffner’s Great Czech State Utopia and its Propagandistic Instrumentalization against Czechoslovakia
Authors: Boris Blahak
Published: December 2023

In his political memorandum Náš stát a světový mír, published in Prague in 1918, the Czech military historian and national extremist Hanuš Kuffner called for a fundamental political reordering of the world that included the territorial curtailment and permanent military control of Germany and the creation of a defensible Great Czech state to which large parts of Germany, Austria and Hungary would be annexed. Although published in only a small number of copies, the pamphlet quickly became the most cited Czech work in the folkish German nationalist literature of the 1920s and 1930s, and was constantly referred to in order to ʻexpose’ the ʻreal aims’ of the Czechoslovak government towards Germany. The article reconstructs the facets of the political instrumentalization of the pamphlet in Sudeten and Reich German circles against Czechoslovakia. The focus is on its German-language basis: the translation Unser Staat und der Weltfrieden (Our State and World Peace), published in Warnsdorf/Bohemia in 1922. It will be shown that this was not a literal translation of the text, but a ʻdidacticised’ version intended for a German readership with no knowledge of Czech, which tended to intensify the already violence-laden pamphlet at crucial points. On the other hand, the ʻcreative’ handling of the map material that Kuffner included in his pamphlet by German nationalist authors is to be examined. Here, in the course of time, an increasingly clear identification of the state utopia of 1918 with the geopolitical reality of the 1930s became apparent in numerous reproductions.
Economic Discourse: Main Peculiarities in English and Spanish
Authors: О.А. Бутко
Published: December 2023

The paper highlights modern economic discourse peculiarities in English and Spanish. Everyday life is determined by the economic situation on the national, regional and international levels. Thus, the economy plays a leading role in any society. The presented research aims to outline language changes on the lexical and morphosyntactic levels that exist in the modern English and Spanish economic discourse. The article introduces the discussion about English overwhelming influence over all other languages in the economic and business area. Nowadays, as a result of globalization, economic discourse has become uniform everywhere. Nevertheless, the uniformity level can differ even in one language group. For instance, Italian is much more receptive to borrowings from English than Spanish or French. At the same time Spanish is evaluated in this research as a purist language example as it has changed to a lesser extent than other languages on the lexical level. This feature is clearly represented by Spanish economic discourse metaphors. For example, famous English metaphors “bear” and “bull” correspond to Spanish “bajista” and “alcista”. At the same time some Spanish metaphors coincide with English ones (the Debt Service (Eng.) – el Servicio de la Deuda (Sp.), country risk (Eng.) – riesgo país (Sp.)). Syntactic structures analysis enabled to investigate several English and Spanish economic discourse phenomena. One of the most important phenomena involves changes of grammatical category, especially the nominalisation of verbs in order to indicate processes as well as of adjectives in order to indicate conditions and qualities. As a nominalisation process consequence, ellipsis, Passive Voice and intransitive verbs employment is observed. In general, it is proved that Passive Voice is used more in English than in Spanish. Nevertheless, Passive Voice is used in Spanish economic discourse to emphasise its impersonality, i.e. subject in the sentence is not expressed by an author but by the action itself. The use of personalisation and metaphors helps to explain abstract notions, i.e., accountability, value, validity, welfare (Eng.) as well as la responsabilidad, valor, la validez, el bienestar (Sp.)

Türkçenin Yabancı Dil Olarak Öğretiminde Sırça Köşk Öyküsünün Metin Değiştirim Teknikleriyle B1 Düzeyine Uyarlanması
Authors: GÖKTAŞ Betül
Published: December 2023

Bireyler duygularını, düşüncelerini, hayallerini, deneyimlerini, istek ve ihtiyaçlarını belirli metinsellik ölçütlerinden yararlanarak sözlü veya yazılı şekilde iletirler. İletişimin temel yapı taşlarından biri metinlerdir. Ana dili konuşurlarına yönelik oluşturulmuş özgün (otantik) metinlerden dilin doğal yapısını ve içeriklerini barındırması nedeniyle yabancı dil öğretiminde de yararlanılmaktadır. Yetkin dil kullanıcılarının dilin sosyokültürel özelliklerini barındıran özgün metinleri anlaması daha kolay olsa da temel ve orta düzey dil kullanıcılarının bu metinleri anlaması mümkün olmayabilir. Bu nedenle özgün metinler, öğreticiler veya materyal yapıcıları tarafından düzeylere uygun hâle getirilmeli ve hedef dil öğretiminde kullanılmalıdır. Bu çalışmada Sabahattin Ali tarafından yazılmış “Sırça Köşk” adlı öykü, Diller İçin Avrupa Ortak Öneriler Çerçevesi’ndeki yeterlikler ve Yeni Hitit Türkçe Öğretim Seti’ndeki dil bilgisi yapıları dikkate alınarak B1 düzeyine uyarlanmıştır. Doküman analizi yöntemi kullanılarak yapılan çalışmada anlatı metninin evrensel ve derste kullanılabilecek nitelikte olmasına, olay örgüsü içermesine, öğrenicilerde yaşantı oluşturmasına ve hedef kitleye uygunluğuna dikkat edilmiştir. Çözümlenen ve sadeleştirilen metinde değiştirim, tamamlama, genişletme, yineleme, açık hâle getirme, yeniden oluşturma gibi çeşitli tekniklerden yararlanılmış; metin uyarlanırken metnin büyük ve küçük ölçekli yapısı korunmaya çalışılmıştır.
