OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the results of the INtubate-SURfactant-Extubate (INSURE) method in the treatment of respiratory distress syndrome in premature infants at Bac Ninh obstetric pediatric hospital from March to September 2017. METHODS: A descriptive study was conducted on 50 preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome. The infants were treated with INSURE method . RESULTS: Of the 50 infants, 29 (58.0%) were male. All of infants,  49 (98.0%) gestational age under 32 weeks, of which 56.0% was less than 30 weeks. The infants birth weight less than 1500 grams accounted for 78.0%, of which 28.0% under 1000 grams. Only 40.0% of mothers were injected with corticosteroid before giving birth. The most common symptoms are cyanosis , apnea neoatorum  > 10 seconds; lower temperature. X.ray III is 92.0%. All infants were pumped pulsed surfactant before 6 hours, intubated endotracheal tube and was removed within 50 minutes. There were 13 children (26.0%) had to have mechanical ventilation, the highest rate of reintroduction in infants birth weight less than 1000 grams. The rate of SpO2 increased, the FiO2 and Siverman index decreased and remained stable significantly after 6 hours of treatment. The complication rate was 4.0%. Treatment outcomes were only associated with birth weight (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: INtubate-SURfactant-Extubate is effective methods in treatment of infants with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS).
Peptidomics analysis of potato protein hydrolysates: post-translational modifications and peptide hydrophobicity
Authors: Yao Shixiang , Udenigwe Chibuike
Published: December 2017

Post-translational modifications (PTMs) often occur in proteins and play a regulatory role in protein function. However, the role of PTMs in food-derived peptides remains largely unknown. The shotgun peptidomics strategy was employed to identify PTMs in peptides from potato protein hydrolysates. Various hydrophobicity-inducing PTMs were found to be located in different potato peptides, e.g. acetylation of lysine, N-terminal of proteins and peptides, C-terminal amidation, asparagine/glutamine deamidaiton, methylation and trimethylation, methionine oxidation, and N-terminal pyro-glutamate formation. Some of the PTMs are likely formed by chemical reactions that occur during isolation and proteolytic processing of potato proteins. The PTMs enhance peptide hydrophobicity, which can improve bioactivity, decrease solubility and increase the bitterness of peptides. This is the first report that food-derived peptides are widely modified by various PTMs associated with hydrophobicity-inducing structural changes. This finding will enhance understanding of the behaviour of bioactive peptides in biological matrices.
The Rise of Insurgency in Ghana: Developing Fertile Grounds?
Authors: Siaw Emmanuel , Elikem Eric
Published: December 2017

Ghana can largely be described as a nation that has enjoyed relative peace and stability in a sub region bedevilled with violence and instability. However, this relative peace and stability has been overhyped leading to the neglect of certain conflict-prone variables that can prong the country into an insurgency; as has been experienced in many African countries. Analysing this from the perspective of the human needs theory, coupled with conducting a survey, the study finds that a sizeable number of Ghanaians are deficient in access to their basic needs. Consequently, it predisposes citizens to insurgent ideas and make them susceptible to insurgency. Thus the study recommends that the Ghanaian government must make provisions for achievement of basic needs, security presence and engagement of people in the governance system a priority to prevent the possibilities of the rise of insurgency in Ghana.

Authors: Anwar Fadilla , Sriherwanto Catur , Yunita Etyn , Suja’i Imam
Published: December 2017

To reduce broiler production cost, a study was carried out on utilisation of alternative, less costly feed components, namely kepok banana peel and corn hominy which were mixed and fermented using the fungus Rhizopus oryzae. The fermented substrate was added into commercial feed in order to determine its influence on the poultry’s production performance. This study employed a completely randomized design (CRD) with four treatments: one using 100% pure commercial feed, and the other three commercial feed mixed with the fermented feed component at the levels of 5%, 10% and 15%. All treatments were repeated four times during 25 days growth period. The results showed that supplementation of the fermented ingredient in the broiler ration at the levels of 5%, 10%, or 15% had no significant effect (P>0,05) on the feed consumption, body weight gain, feed conversion ratio, and the final body weight of the animals. Although mixing the fermented feed ingredient up to 15% in the commercial feed promoted the growth of the broilers, the results were not yet comparable to pure commercial feed.Keywords: Corn hominy, broiler, fermentation, kepok banana peel, Rhizopus oryzae AbstrakUntuk mengurangi biaya produksi ayam pedaging, dilakukan pengkajian penggunaan bahan penyusun pakan alternatif yang lebih murah, yaitu kulit pisang kepok dan ampok jagung yang dicampur dan difermentasi menggunakan jamur Rhizopus oryzae. Hasil fermentasi tersebut lalu ditambahkan pada pakan komersial ayam pedaging dengan tujuan mengetahui pengaruhnya terhadap penampilan produksi ayam pedaging. Penelitian ini menggunakan Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) dengan empat perlakuan, yaitu satu perlakuan 100% pakan komersial murni, dan tiga perlakuan pakan komersial yang dicampur bahan pakan hasil fermentasi tersebut dengan kadar 5%, 10%, dan 15%. Seluruh perlakukan diulang empat kali selama 25 hari masa pemeliharaan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penambahan bahan pakan terfermentasi ke dalam ransum ayam pedaging pada kadar 5%, 10%, atau 15% tidak memberikan pengaruh nyata (P>0,05) terhadap konsumsi pakan, pertambahan bobot badan, nilai koversi pakan, dan bobot badan akhir hewan. Meskipun penambahan bahan pakan fermentasi tersebut hingga 15% dalam pakan komersial mendukung pertumbuhan ayam pedaging, namun capaian pertumbuhannya belumlah sebaik pakan komersial.Kata kunci: Ampok jagung, ayam pedaging, fermentasi, kulit pisang kepok, Rhizopus oryzae

Taro or Satoimo (Colocasia esculenta (L) Schott var antiquorum) is an alternative of non-rice food. To support saitomo mass cultivation in several regions in Indonesia, shoot multiplication and induction of satoimo microtuber through in vitro technique is amongst the stage to be undertaken. The aims of this study were to determine the effect of BAP (benzylaminopurine) and sucrose for shoot multiplication and microtuber induction of in vitro culture of satoimo. The experiment was arranged in two factors: BAP (0, 1, 2 and 3 mg/L) and sucrose (30, 60, 90 and 120 g/L). The result showed that the single effect of BAP or sucrose and interaction of both significantly increased the number of shoots. The effect of 2 mg/L BAP was more homogeneous than that of 1 and 3 mg/L BAP. Sucrose with the concentration of 30 g/L was the best concentration for shoot multiplication. The highest number of microtuber was achieved with 2 mg/L BAP + 30 g/L sucrose treatments, but tended to decrease due to increasing sucrose concentration. In 2 and 3 mg/L BAP treatments, the number of microtuber increased along with the increasing sucrose concentration.Keywords: satoimo, in vitro shoot, microtuber, benzylaminopurine, sucrose ABSTRAKSatoimo (Colocasia esculenta (L) Schott var antiquorum) merupakan bahan pangan alternatif non-beras. Untuk mendukung produksi massal satoimo di beberapa wilayah di Indonesia, multiplikasi tunas dan induksi umbi mikro secara in vitro merupakan tahapan yang harus dilakukan. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh BAP dan sukrosa terhadap multiplikasi tunas dan induksi umbi mikro satoimo dalam kultur in vitro. Perlakuan terdiri dari 4 taraf konsentrasi BAP (0, 1, 2 dan 3 mg/L) dan 4 taraf konsentrasi sukrosa (30, 60, 90 dan 120 g/L). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa BAP dan sukrosa secara tunggal serta interaksinya berpengaruh nyata terhadap multiplikasi tunas in vitro. Pengaruh konsentrasi BAP 2 mg/L lebih homogen dibandingkan perlakuan BAP 1 dan 3 mg/L. Sukrosa 30 g/L merupakan konsentrasi terbaik untuk multiplikasi tunas. Umbi mikro terbanyak terdapat pada perlakuan BAP 1 mg/L + sukrosa 30 g/L tetapi cenderung mengalami penurunan jika konsentrasi sukrosa dinaikkan pada konsentrasi BAP tetap. Pada perlakuan BAP 2 dan 3 mg/L jumlah umbi mikro yang terbentuk cenderung meningkat seiring dengan peningkatan konsentrasi sukrosa.Kata kunci: satoimo, tunas in vitro, umbi mikro, benzilaminopurin, sukrosa

Authors: Anggadiredja Jana Tjahjana
Published: December 2017

The interaction between species and species diversity with their growing habitats are essential in the conservation of species. This study deals with the diversity and conservation of seaweed (marine macro-algae) with the emphasis on substrata habitats (sandy and rocky shores) and seasonal conditions (rainy and dry seasons). The study was carried out on the Warambadi seashore of Sumba Island. The t-test analysis showed that the “species diversity index of algae” (H’) on both sandy and rocky substrata did not significantly different. The (H’) during both rainy and dry seasons on different substratum (sandy and rocky substrata) did not show any significant differences. The two-way anova analysis recorded that the (H’) and the number of algae species were not affected by the differences of both substrata and seasons, but it was significantly affected by the interaction between the types of substratum and season. The study also reported that the types of substrata and seasons affected the (H’) of Chlorophyceae but not by of their interaction, and the (H’) of Rhodophyceae was affected by the types of substratum and season but not by their interaction. Moreover, the types of substratum and season affected the (H’) of Phaeophycea, but their interaction did not affect such diversity index. Substrata and seasonal phenomenon also indicate that the types of substratum, season, and their interactions affected the number of species Chlorophyceae, Rhodophyceae, and Phaeophyceae.Keywords:  seaweed, diversity, conservation, substrata, season

Information overload in healthcare management: How the READ Portal is helping healthcare managers
Authors: Green Alyssa
Published: December 2017

Abstract: Information overload is a serious threat to the productivity of healthcare managers. Instead of facilitating informed decision making, an overabundance of information actually impedes managers from negotiating information effectively. There are many methods of dealing with information overload, one of which is the use of web infomediaries as a source of information. The University of British Colummbia’s Centre for Health Care management’s READ Portal (http://www.read.chcm.ubc.ca) is an example of an infomediary that is striving to help healthcare managers overcome the effects of information overload. This portal aggregates content from numerous high-quality sources, which is then hosted in one easy to access location. Content is condensed into brief abstracts and synopses that are easy to ingest and includes links to full-text articles and papers that viewers can either choose to visit or not, depending on their needs. The READ Portal can be used as a model for other organizations looking to meet the information needs of managers without overwhelming them with excessive information.

O “se-movimentar” e a temporalidade: uma aproximação entre dança e linguagem
Authors: Marques Danieli Alves Pereira , Kunz Elenor
Published: December 2017

ResumoO texto faz uma aproximação da dança na perspectiva da linguagem com o “se-movimentar” e suas relações com a temporalidade. Discute sobre os lugares da exploração dos gestos, da aprendizagem da cultura de movimento e da criação nas experiências com a dança no contexto pedagógico. Entrelaçando tempo e “se-movimentar”, observamos que a expressão criadora se dá na troca eu-outro-mundo. O entendimento de um tempo estendido, não fragmentado, nos mostra que uma motricidade original se projeta entrecruzando passado-presente-futuro. Nessa perspectiva, podemos pensar numa prática de ensino que não opõe as transcendências de limites da aprendizagem (forma direta, forma aprendida, forma criativa inventiva), uma vez que há o jogo da transitividade entre elas.Palavras-chave: Dança. Linguagem. “Se-movimentar”. Temporalidade. The “self-move” and temporality: an approximation between dance and languageAbstractThe text draws an approximation of dance from the perspective of language with the “self-movement” and its relations with temporality. It discusses about the places of the exploration of the gestures, the learning of the culture of movement and the creation in the experiences with the dance in the pedagogical context. Interweaving time and “self-movement”, we observe that the creative expression takes place in the I-other-world exchange. The understanding of an extended, non-fragmented time shows us that an original motricity projects itself cross-crossing past-present-future. In this perspective, we may think of a teaching practice that does not oppose the transcendences of learning limits (direct form, learned form, inventive creative form), since, between them, there is the play of transitivity.Keywords: Dance.

A agricultura familiar apresenta-se pujante nas últimas décadas e seu desenvolvimento aponta para outros desafios nas questões ambientais e de relacionamento com o mercado. Contudo, mesmo diante de tantas facilidades tecnológicas, econômicas e políticas, essas empresa encontram dificuldade para comercializar seus produtos. Neste panorama a gestão de design se defronta em um contexto para propor soluções a esses desafios, por meio de processos de cocriação. O objetivo é identificar por meio da gestão de design, formas de se agir intencionalmente com a abordagem da cocriação para promoção da sustentabilidade, mais ao mesmo tempo preocupa-se com a identificação da produção de seus aspectos e impactos ambientais. Este artigo caracteriza-se como uma pesquisa de natureza aplicada, com objetivo exploratório, abordagem qualitativa, com procedimento metodológico documental e bibliográfico. Como resultados aponta-se que a cocriação até o presente momento, para os casos estudados, trouxe benefícios; que na agricultura familiar a abordagem deve levar em conta aspectos fitossanitários, climáticos e sazonais e que estudos devem ser estimulados, com a finalidade de ampliar este escopo teórico para que essa abordagem, mediada pela prática da gestão de design contribua para o desenvolvimento sustentável na práxis produtiva e gerencial e que a abertura de um canal de comunicação entre os clientes e mais de um produtor rural, aplicando um ou mais modelos apresentados neste artigo, por exemplo, deve ser aplicado para que avaliações comparativas possam ser efetuadas e hipóteses levantadas, confirmadas ou não

Authors: Caccere João Paulo Amaral , Dos Santos Aguinaldo
Published: December 2017

As mudanças na organização e distribuição da informação decorrentes das duas últimas décadas têm criado novas oportunidades de inovação para a sustentabilidade. Estas possuem como característica a crescente troca de dados, informações, conhecimento e cultura de forma livre e cada vez mais inclusiva através da internet. Neste contexto, a dissertação de mestrado desenvolvida dedicou-se à investigação de aplicações da Fabricação Digital, entendida preliminarmente como a utilização de uma série de ferramentas e tecnologias capazes de transformar desenhos digitais em artefatos tangíveis através de máquinas controladas por computador (GERSHENFELD, 2012). Essa abordagem foi pensada de maneira que pudesse viabilizar um panorama de utilização e difusão de estratégias de Produção e Design Distribuídos, que remetem a modos de esparjo do projeto e fabricação para regiões específicas, orientado ao consumo no próprio território onde se estabelecem tais atividades, implicando em impactos positivos nas dimensões ambiental, social e econômica da sustentabilidade (JOHANSSON et al., 2005; LENSIN, 2016). Os métodos principais utilizados foram a Revisão Bibliográfica Sistemática e a Pesquisa-Ação com a lógica abdutiva da Design Science Research. A pesquisa de campo foi subdividida em quatro ciclos de ação voltados para a criação de um Sistema Produto+Serviço que ofertasse mobiliário residencial open-source para moradores de Habitação de Interesse Social.

LAJE MISTA DE BAMBU-CONCRETO LEVE: ESTUDO TEÓRICO E EXPERIMENTAL
Authors: Acosta Caio Cesar Veloso , Carbonari Gilberto
Published: December 2017

A busca de novas alternativas para a sustentabilidade na construção civil vem sendo foco de estudos nos últimos anos, visando amenizar os impactos causados pelas ações antrópicas no meio. O bambu é um material com excelentes propriedades mecânicas, de rápida produção para fins estruturais (a partir de 3 anos), baixo custo de produção, leve, de origem natural e totalmente renovável. Este trabalho tem como objetivo verificar a possibilidade da utilização do bambu em lajes de edificações, na forma mista com concreto leve. Para isto, foram desenvolvidas e ensaiadas duas lajes, onde a parte inferior é de bambu da espécie DendrocalamusGiganteus, e a parte superior uma capa de concreto leve com argila expandida. Em uma das lajes todas as varas são cortadas no meio da seção, e na outra, foi mantida a seção natural na região dos nós, na tentativa de melhorar a interface de aderência. Apesar de terem sido ensaiadas somente duas lajes, é possível constatar o ganho significativo de resistência da laje com seção completa na região dos nós.
SUSTENTABILIDADE SOCIAL ATRAVÉS DA ACESSIBILIDADE EM ESPAÇOS LIVRES: METODOLOGIA DE ANÁLISE E PROPOSIÇÃO NOS PASSEIOS PÚBLICOS
Authors: Savi Aline Eyng , Hespanhol Lays Juliani
Published: December 2017

Os espaços livres públicos formam um complexo sistema de conexões com múltiplos papéis, entre eles a socialização. Neles, a existência de barreiras físicas restringem o uso, ocasionando constrangimento e impedindo a participação nas atividades. Nesse cenário, o objetivo é avaliar as condições de acessibilidade e propor diretrizes de projeto para os passeios públicos num recorte de Criciúma, sul de Santa Catarina. A metodologia considera os critérios da “Active Design: Shaping the Sidewalk Experience” e as impressões do Passeio Acompanhado. Os resultados são sugestões que contemplam as normas e proporcionam ao usuário segurança, conforto e independência no uso e deslocamento, baseados no Desenho Universal. O resultado é socializado em forma de croquis sobre imagens reais para compartilhar com a comunidade as informações técnicas. Ao permitir que a cidade aprenda e conviva com a inclusão em suas diferentes esferas, viabiliza-se a sustentabilidade social.

O Biodesign talvez seja uma das maiores alternativas na contemporaneidade para se repensarem processos produtivos da cadeia têxtil, recriando desde o próprio tecido a processos de beneficiamento. A presente pesquisa faz um levantamento dos estudos recentes relacionados à utilização de seres vivos na fabricação de artigos têxteis e exemplifica por meio de um experimento de tingimento em tecidos orgânicos utilizando bactérias, que além de repensar o processo, renova a estética do design de superfície atual.
Editors’ Introduction: Introducing a Methodological Research Collection on Pressing Issues for LGBTQ Students
Authors: Cimpian Joseph R. , Herrington Carolyn D.
Published: December 2017

This special issue of Educational Researcher focuses on pressing issues for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning (LGBTQ) students from a variety of methodological perspectives. Here, we introduce the articles, which cover a broad range of topics, including homeless LGBTQ youth, student-led groups known as Gay-Straight Alliances, classification bias, power, and intersectionality. In addition to the overarching theme of pressing issues and methodology that all of the authors were expressly asked to address, we discuss two organically arising common themes across the papers: The first theme of “space” explores how LGBTQ youth navigate through educational spaces and create communal spaces while also acknowledging that not all LGBTQ youth may feel welcomed in these various spaces. The second theme of “categorization” problematizes the ways in which research defines groups for study—raising concerns about methodological preferences and biases within specific approaches—and challenges how we assess and describe heterogeneity of experiences within broader categories. In total, this special issue raises fundamental questions about the current state of educational contexts and supports for LGBTQ youth as well as the current state of research methods and the politics around methodology.
Improvement using frequency relays compared to dynamic and static relays in frequency instability
Authors: Rasaei A , Emamhosseini A
Published: December 2017

Nowadays a smarter, more diverse and robust electricity infrastructure is necessary because power grids form one of the most effective components of the infrastructure on which modern society depends on. The stability of an electrical grid is very important for suppliers and consumers. Frequency variations cause instability in the electricity grid. There will be so many problems such as overproduction, overloading, and etc. which have irreversible effects on suppliers and consumers. Balancing the isolated systems in terms of production and consumption, and also using the frequency relays in power grids are useful ways to solve these problems. Due to the importance of frequency relays in proportion than dynamic and static relays, designing and optimizing the frequency relays are very important to guarantee the stability of the electrical grid. The frequency relays can be used in a different network with different charges. The frequency relays have two parts, namely measurement, and detection which undertake separate tasks. In this paper, we investigated the function of frequency relays. We also simulated and analyzed the aforementioned issues. The simulation provides a comparison of grid charge variations and nominal frequency in a state of disarray and approach to the ideal state. Some blocks have been used for counting the frequency in this simulation which most notably, included a block of frequency measurement and another block that has the protection duty.Bangladesh J.

Agro-economic evaluation of potassium application in spring maize under early and late sown conditions
Authors: Ahmad I , Akram M
Published: December 2017

Although the yield potential of spring maize is much higher than autumn maize but high temperature at anthesis stage is one of the main problems in spring maize especially in late sown conditions which caused a synchronous pollination, fertilization and grain formation. Early sowing of the crop seems an ideal solution to escape the heat period but low temperature causes poor seedling establishment. Both temperature extremes osmotic and oxidative stresses are major reasons of economical crop damage. Potassium application may lessen these oxidative damages and crop stand establishment of maize under semi arid conditions of Faisalabad. Observations on number of plants per unit area, cobs per plant, grains per cob, 100-grain weight, grain yield, grain protein and oil contents were recorded by using standard procedures. The net income and benefit cost ratio were calculated to evaluate the most economical and profitable potassium level. Sowing dates affected significantly number of plants, cobs per plant, grains and 100-weight, grain yield, grain protein and oil contents while potassium application considerably improved grain yield through increasing crop stand under both early and late sown conditions by ameliorating stresses. It is concluded that the benefit cost ratio of 100 kg ha-1 potassium application is only beneficial under early planting on 1st February.Bangladesh J. Sci. Ind. Res. 52(4), 295-302, 2017
L*a*b* color model based road lane detection in autonomous vehicles
Authors: Kazemi M , Baleghi Y
Published: December 2017

Autonomous vehicles, as a main part of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), will have great impact on transportation in near future. They could navigate autonomously in specific areas or highways and city streets using maps, GPS, video sensors and so on. To navigate autonomously or follow a road, intelligent vehicles need to detect lanes. This paper presents a method for lane detection in image sequences of a camera on top of a robotic vehicle. The main idea is to find the road area using the L*a*b* color space in consecutive frames. Subsequently, by applying this model in road area and equalization of histogram and calculation of gradient image using Sobel operator, the parameters of the lane can be calculated using a Hough transform. The proposed method is tested under various illumination conditions and experimental results indicate the good performance of the proposed method.Bangladesh J. Sci. Ind. Res. 52(4), 273-280, 2017
The Early Writings of Joy Davidman
Authors: King Don
Published: December 2017

Joy Davidman’s place in the canon of twentieth century American literature deserves more attention than it has heretofore received. For instance, in her role in the late 1930’s as poetry editor for New Masses (the weekly voice of the Communist Party of the United States of America), Davidman published poets such as Langston Hughes, Margaret Walker, Alexander Bergman, and Aaron Kramer. At the same time, her poems in Letter to a Comrade (1938) touting a Communist agenda, while clearly written in the tradition of “proletarian literature,” are nonetheless well done; although a political agenda drives her selection of subject matter in these poems, they are not simply set pieces. She uses irony effectively and her imagery is evocative and striking. In fact, Davidman was very much a conscious craftswoman, spending the summers of 1938, 1940, 1941, and 1942 at the MacDowell Colony, a writers’ retreat in New Hampshire, where she honed her skills. For instance, her best piece of fiction, Anya (1940), is a direct result of her time at the colony. She understood the intellectual energy it takes to become an effective writer of poetry, fiction, and non-fiction, and she never backed away from hard work. Her commitment to writing—especially her voice, her rhetoric, her style, and the literary influences informing her work—merit more scholarly attention. In this essay I explore Davidman’s early devotion and commitment to the craft of writing; in addition, I evaluate the poems, fiction, and non-fiction she produced before she wrote for New Masses and published Letter to a Comrade.
What Lewis really did to Miracles A philosophical layman’s attempt to understand the Anscombe affair
Authors: Smilde Arend
Published: December 2017

An examination of Elizabeth Anscombe’s critique of C.S. Lewis’s Miracles (1947), chapter 3, and of the changes introduced in the book’s revised edition (1960) shows that Lewis fully maintained his original position, apparently using Anscombe’s attack chiefly to improve his own argument. The present essay leads up to a proposal for a very brief summary of the whole exchange, followed by a brief consideration of Anscombe’s final appreciation and further critique (1981), and concludes by arguing that neither party to the debate won, while both gained.
Tolkien’s ‘Leaf by Niggle’: A Blossom on the Tree of Tales
Authors: Hanks D. Thomas
Published: December 2017

J. R. R. Tolkien’s short story, ‘Leaf by Niggle’, embodies the theories of story, fantasy, and ‘myth’ which he outlined in his Mythopoeia, in “On Fairy-stories,” and in his letters. That view was eventually to appear more fully fleshed out in The Lord of the Rings
The Garden as Unfinished Narrative of the Good in C.S. Lewis’ Perelandra
Authors: Ness-Bergstein Evrea
Published: December 2017

In Lewis’ transposition of Milton’s Paradise to a distant world where Adam and Eve do not succumb to Satan, the structure of Eden is radically different from the enclosed garden familiar to most readers. In the novel Perelandra (1944), C.S. Lewis represents the Garden of Eden as an open and ‘shifting’ place. The new Garden of Eden, with Adam and Eve unfallen, is a place of indeterminate future, excitement, growth, and change, very unlike the static, safe, enclosed Garden—the hortus conclusus of traditional iconography—from which humanity is not just expelled but also, in some sense, escapes.

The innovation is not in the theological underpinnings that Lewis claims to share with Milton but in the literary devices that make evil in Perelandra seem boring, dead-end, and repetitive, while goodness is the clear source of change and excitement.
C. S. Lewis and the Truth about Angels
Authors: Brown Janice
Published: December 2017

Lewis’s perspective on angels is apparent in The Discarded Image, his scholarly work on medieval and Renaissance literature. His preface to The Screwtape Letters reveals the seriousness with which he approaches the subject: it proposes that a mistaken view of angelic beings is more dangerous than ignorance of them. The space trilogy seeks to avert that danger. In it we are confronted by angelic eldila—inscrutable and holy beings inhabiting “deep space” who relentlessly accomplish the purposes of the Almighty. Characterized by absolute goodness and archetypal charity, they are serene yet they pulsate with energy. Lewis’s intense interest in angels is further apparent in a number of his poems. Throughout his work he depicts angels as real beings, inhabiting an actual universe, who actually participate our lives. They represent mysterious eternal realities, yet they are part of God’s daily providence.
