Josephus Between Jerusalem and Rome: Cultural Brokerage and the Rhetoric of Emotion in the Bellum Judaicum (1.9–12)
Authors: Glas J. E.
Published: September 2024

This contribution aims to address the simple but far-reaching issue of the relationship between the Judaean and Graeco-Roman currents in Josephus’ Bellum Judaicum. It offers a new perspective on Josephus’ use of personal emotions in this work, in particular by looking at his outburst in BJ 1.9–12. It proposes to examine Josephus’ motivations for fashioning this passage in the way he did by (1) placing his compositional choices in their literary context, i.e., the broader historiographical outlook of the BJ, and (2) comparing his practice to the Graeco-Roman literature supposedly familiar to his intended audience in Rome. What I aim to show in this article is that Josephus uses emotions in a rhetorically calculated way with the intention of investing Roman readers in his account of the Judaean revolt against Rome.
On Space, Place, and Form in Herodotus’ Histories
Authors: Barker E. T. E.
Published: September 2024

This article reflects on how our own technological developments can help us see Herodotus’ archetype of historical inquiry in a new light. It explores various aspects of place in the Histories—as spaces that are lived, constructed, and relational—to show how and why the idea of place can be such a powerful means for linking information and understanding the past. In discussing the role of place in structuring Herodotus’ narrative, it argues that the potential for linking is afforded by the new prose medium. By virtue of those linkages, Herodotus’ account differs in its spatial configurations from earlier, oral-based narratives.
Croesus at Dodona: The Test of Oracles in the Oracular Context
Authors: Crosby Daniel J.
Published: September 2024

In this paper, I reinterpret Herodotus’ account of Croesus’ test of the oracles (1.46–9). By comparing the words of Croesus’ question with the oracular tablets from Dodona, I show that Croesus’ inquiry was troublingly ambiguous. Croesus meant ‘What do I happen to be doing right now?’ but in the oracular tablets, similar questions mean ‘What might I do to find fortune?’ I propose, therefore, that the other oracles could have offered Croesus advice about having fortune, which the king unwittingly discarded as not fitting his test, and I argue that this interpretation is more consonant with Herodotus’ view of oracles in the rest of the Histories.

Ch. 2. Being There: Three Examples of Brief Dialogue in Herodotus and Thucydides
Authors: Baron Christopher
Published: September 2024

Though the idea of ‘eyewitness history’ held a central importance from the beginning, Greek historical writing did not typically feature the explicit citation of evidence provided by an eyewitness to an event. Rather, the Greek historians utilised a narrative style which elided any conceptual distance between the reader and the action. This narrative fiction raises the possibility of a different meaning for ‘eyewitness history’, one that shifts emphasis from the sources to the audience. In this essay, I examine three passages containing direct speech found in Herodotus and Thucydides which stand out from their surroundings in various ways. I suggest that the notion of ‘eyewitness history’ in its more reader-orientated sense may help explain the uncommon nature of these brief dialogues.

Livio e il Conflitto tra Generazioni
Authors: Beltramini Luca
Published: September 2024

A partire da un passaggio in cui Livio lamenta il venir meno del rispetto per gli anziani alla sua epoca, il contributo mira a indagare il ruolo narrativo e ideologico rivestito dal conflitto tra generazioni nel pensiero storiografico liviano, assumendo come caso di studio emblematico il resoconto del crollo della monarchia e della successiva instaurazione del regime repubblicano. Si tenterà di dimostrare che Livio, rispetto ad altre fonti anche coeve, tende a concepire le ultime vicende del periodo regio nei termini di un conflitto tra le istanze dei giovani e quelle dei vecchi, e che questa concezione intrattiene legami profondi con il suo ideale di storiografia morale.
Ch. 6. Tacitus and the Older Generation: Fatherhood and its Alternatives in the Agricola
Authors: Kemezis Adam M.
Published: September 2024

While fatherhood in the abstract and generational succession are major themes throughout Tacitus’ Agricola, biological father-son relationships are surprisingly under-emphasised. This article examines how Tacitus portrays Agricola’s father, Graecinus. Graecinus was a significant exemplary figure thanks to his noble death under Caligula, but Tacitus allots him only one sentence. I argue that this is a marked choice that by implication positions Graecinus as a negative exemplum for his more circumspect but effective son. This move of Tacitus’ is considered in relation to his portrayal of the ‘Stoic martyrs’ and to questions of generational continuity within the Roman elite between the hereditary Flavian dynasty and the age of the adopted emperor Trajan.

Ch. 5. Novel Leaders for Novel Armies: Xenophon's Focus on Willing Obedience in Context
Authors: Buxton Richard Fernando
Published: September 2024

Although the universalising bent of Xenophon’s leadership theory shows Socratic influence, its prioritisation of the general and the author’s fame for leading the Cyreans suggests an equal foundation in his battlefield experiences. In particular, the theory’s focus on securing willing obedience can be understood as a response to the novel fourth-century challenge of uniting ethnically disparate forces of free-agent mercenaries as an army, an issue central to Anabasis 5–7. Not only was Xenophon familiar with such a force, but he also shows an interest throughout his works in the advantages of mercenary professionalisation and specialisation, particularly with Jason of Pherae.

Authors: Mitina A.E. , Illarionova E.A. , Chmelevskaya N.V.
Published: September 2024

Introduction. Qualitative and quantitative analysis of pharmaceutical substances using reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography based on domestic hardware is an important stage in the approval of medicines. Drug «Kalidavir» is widely used in the treatment of human immunodeficien-cy virus. The developed methodology assumes significant advantages in comparison with foreign methods involving the use of imported equipment and standards from the United States recommended by regulatory documentation. The aim of the study was to develop and conduct validation procedures for the quantitative analysis of ritonavir and lopinavir in the combined drug «Kalidavir». Material and methods. The optimized parameters of chromatographic operations included the column size (752 mm), the choice of the polymer sorbent ProntoSil 120-5C AQ, as well as a binary mobile phase consisting of a 0.1% solution of trifluoroacetic acid in an aqueous medium and metha-nol, respectively, with a flow rate setting of 150 µl per minute and a column temperature of 35oC. An isocratic elution regime was applied, ensuring a continuous supply of eluent and the correctness of the analytical conclusion. Additionally, the injection volume of 2 µl and the determination of absorp-tion at four wavelengths from the range from 200 to 240 nm were established. Results. Retention times of ritonavir and lopinavir were 7.2 min and 11.9 min, respectively. Linearity was observed in the range from 0.025 mg/ml for ritonavir and 0.1 mg/ml for lopinavir and reached 0.5 mg/ml for both substances, with a good correlation coefficient (> 0.999). Relative errors accord-ing to the developed quantitative determination methods did not exceed 0.85% for lopinavir and 0.96% for ritonavir. Conclusions. The methods of qualitative and quantitative determination of lopinavir and ritonavir in the combined tablet dosage form "Kalidavir" by high-performance liquid chromatography using domestic equipment have been developed and approved, which allowed to obtain sufficiently reliable and reproducible results.

Emerging Trends in Sports Cardiology: The Role of Micronutrients in Cardiovascular Health and Performance
Authors: Biswajit Sharma , Kishore Mukhopadhyay
Published: September 2024

Micronutrients are critical components of an athlete’s diet, affecting both performance and cardiovascular health. This review summarizes current studies on the importance of micronutrients in sports cardiology, focusing on their effects on energy metabolism, antioxidant defense, and cardiac function. Key findings emphasize the relevance of micronutrient sufficiency in improving athletic performance and avoiding long-term health issues linked to strenuous training programs. Micronutrients like B vitamins help energy generation pathways, while antioxidants like C and E reduce exercise-induced oxidative damage. Minerals like magnesium and iron are important for muscle function and oxygen delivery, which are required for endurance and recovery. Effective nutritional practices include balancing food intake and, if required, supplementing under medical supervision to address individual needs and enhance performance results. Future research paths will focus on individualized nutrition techniques based on genetic and metabolic profiles, allowing for more precise food recommendations for athletes. Collaboration between sports medicine and nutrition disciplines is critical for establishing evidence-based practices and improving cardiovascular health in athletes.

The religious understanding of Nigerians affinity for Donald trump
Authors: Akpan Ubong-Abasi Asukwo
Published: September 2024

President Trump has a tremendous fanbase from an unlikely place: Nigeria. To bring this to the fore, I compare the perception of Trump in Africa with that of immediate past American presidents of the last decade. He is fondly idealized as a strong man leader who upholds high moral standards, a defendant of the Christian faith, and a fulfillment of Biblical prophesies. I argue that Nigerian's fondness for Trump stems from these religious premises. I aver that although Trump’s policies at the time of his administration were seemingly unfavorable to African nations such as Nigeria, many of these nations hold him in high esteem. To understand this paradoxical affinity, I point to religious themes that resonate with many Nigerians' fundamentalist religious teachings. Such themes include Trump's policies on same-sex marriage, abortion, the declaration of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, and his stance on religious terrorism, amongst others. My argument is premised on the notion that for many Nigerians, Trump's policies, which directly impacted the nation and African region, can be understood as God’s will and purpose, which is geared towards a positive end. It exemplifies the Christian idealistic fundamentalist positivist mindset and attitude.
Balancing customary practices with constitutional principles: The best interest of the child in south African law
Authors: Lizelle Ramaccio Calvino
Published: September 2024

This paper examines the tension between customary practices and constitutional principles in applying the best interest of the child within South Africa's legal framework. The Constitution of South Africa, 1996, recognizes customary law as valid, alongside common law, while also mandating that children's rights and their best interests be paramount in all matters. This dual recognition creates a unique conflict, particularly in marriage and family law, where customary practices may diverge from constitutional mandates. The study critically analyses how the South African legal system reconciles these tensions, focusing on key legislation such as the Recognition of Customary Marriages Act 120 of 1998 and the Children’s Act 38 of 2005, alongside constitutional provisions like section 28(2), which emphasizes the paramountcy of children's best interests. Employing a qualitative methodology, including doctrinal analysis of legislation, case law, and academic literature, the research is grounded in legal pluralism and child rights theories. Preliminary findings reveal that while constitutional protections aim to uphold children's best interests, certain customary practices, such as child marriages, initiation rites, polygamy, and lobolo (bride price), may conflict with these mandates. Consequently, customary law may require modification to align with constitutional principles. The study highlights the challenge of consistently applying the best interest of the child principle across diverse cultural contexts, advocating for ongoing legal reform to ensure that customary practices evolve per constitutional values, thereby safeguarding children's rights within South Africa's pluralistic legal system.

Changes and determinants of the shape of irregular trunk trees over time in a semi-deciduous forest in Central Africa
Authors: Melain Merland Nguila Bakala  , Géraud Sidoine Mankou  , Jean Joël Loumeto
Published: September 2024

A better understanding of the determinants behind changes in the shape of irregular trunk trees over time is needed to predict likely changes in carbon stocks and biodiversity when environmental conditions change. To investigate this question, we studied the changes and determinants of irregular trunk shape in 6 tree species (72 trees) from a semi-deciduous forest in Central Africa. The change in trunk shape of each tree over time was assessed from the Deficit Basal Area Index (DeBA) using photogrammetric point cloud data and conventional measurements over a 7-year period. DeBA quantifies trunk irregularity, with values ranging from zero for a perfectly circular cross-section to one for highly irregular shapes. By comparing DeBA values for 2014 and 2021, we have tracked the evolution of trunk shape. A reduction in DeBA indicates a trend towards a more irregular shape. For all species, significant differences were observed in trunk shape between 2014 and 2021, with a mean change of 0.55±0.16, suggesting that these trees are evolving towards a more irregular shape. Among the species, Triplochiton scleroxylon showed a lower mean variation, indicating an evolution towards a more irregular shape. Notably, trees developing highly irregular shapes over time were generally large canopy trees with expansive crowns. Species with very irregular shapes tend to be large trees with wide, deep crowns, low wood density, deciduous trees, trees that don't require light and are dispersed by the wind. These results provide insight into the life-cycle strategy of tropical tree species.

Published: September 2024

Control of gonad maturation and spawning is a major problem in the development of shrimp and lobster cultivation. Reproductive technology in hatching this type of crustacean has not experienced significant development. Progesterone is a precursor of estrogen in vertebrates, which is also found in crustaceans and other invertebrates. While several crustacean reproductive hormones have been characterized, the identity and function of other reproductive hormones are still under investigation. In hormone analysis, the use of the Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) method continues to grow, both for research purposes and clinical applications. This study aims to evaluate the concentration of the hormone progesterone in Panulirus versicolor lobsters of different sizes with a body weight range of 300-750g which are caught in the wild using the ELISA method. The hormone progesterone is measured in the ovaries, hepatopancreas and hemolymph. This research uses descriptive analysis methods. From using the ELISA method, the results of the parallelism test showed that the test sample curve was parallel to the standard curve. Absorbance and standard value recovery tests showed that the measured concentrations of the progesterone hormone in Panulirus versicolor lobsters were acceptable because they had an average recovery value of 98%. The precision testing results of the ELISA kit used show that the test prescription is good and acceptable based on the percentage of coefficient variation (%CV) from QC1 and QC 2 (<15%). The concentration value of the progesterone hormone in P. versicolor lobsters shows that there is a difference in concentration depending on body size, where in lobsters with a body weight of 650-750g, the concentration of the progesterone hormone in the hepatopancreas, ovaries and hemolin is 1.059 ng/ml, 0.357 ng/ml and 0.042 ng/ml. while at lower body weights, namely 300-350 grams, the concentration of the hormone progesterone is 0.753 ng/ml, 0.181 ng/ml, 0.010 ng/ml.

Бродский передал свои наблюдения и впечатления от города, полученные в течении трех дней, придавая симультанный характер конфликту Востока и Запада, Стамбула и Константинополя, пространства и времени. Автор через физическое пространство современного турецкого мегаполиса воспроизводит историческое пространство столицы Византийской империи Константинополя. Пространственные наблюдения автора переплетаются с временными, формируя пространственно-временной образ города, который сам автор называет «пыльной катастрофой Азии», «спятившим светофором», шумным, грязным, накуренным восточным городом. В статье утверждается, что лингвокультурный образ города создается с помощью индивидуальных авторских эпитетов и ассоциаций, представленных сравнениями и метафорами. Очевидно, что для Бродского Стамбул представляет не мозаичное сочетание восточных и западных цивилизаций, а противостояние европейского индивидуализма восточному коллективизму. Присущие Востоку покорность, поклонение, традиционность на протяжении длительного периода сформировали коллективное существование, которое состоит их социума. Образ пыли, образовавшийся после взрыва, катастрофы, и символизирующий не только время, указывающее на забвение, утрату и разрушение западной цивилизации, византийской культуры, вызывающей чувство ностальгии, печали и ощущение потери, но и утрату человеческой индивидуальности, ограничение прав человека. В целом, образ Стамбула И. Бродского совпадает с идентичным образом города, установившимся в русском лингвокультурном сознании, в котором Стамбул олицетворяет моральное и культурное опустошение, не настоящее или будущее, а прошлое.
Ключевые слова: лингвокультурное пространство, Стамбул, Бродский, ассоциация, эссе, путешествие.
Ortaokul Türkçe Ders Kitaplarının Tamamlayıcı Ölçme Araçlarının Kullanılması Bakımından Karşılaştırılması
Authors: Aydın İlker , Kanık Uysal Pınar , Uyar Yunus Emre
Published: September 2024

Eğitim politikalarında yapılandırmacı felsefenin ağırlık kazanması öğretim programlarının ölçme-değerlendirme anlayışlarına yansımış ve bunun doğal bir sonucu olarak tamamlayıcı ölçme araçlarına olan yönelim artmıştır. Bu durum 2006 ve sonrasında yayımlanan Türkçe dersi öğretim programlarında da etkisini hissettirmiştir. Artık öğrencinin etkin katıldığı, duyuşsal alanlara da önem veren ve sürecin de değer gördüğü çoklu bir ölçme-değerlendirme anlayışı egemen olmaya başlamıştır. Türkçe derslerinde kullanılan temel materyal ders kitabı olduğundan bu dönüşümün Türkçe ders kitaplarına ne ölçüde yansıdığı sorusu önem kazanmıştır. Bu amaçla bu çalışmada 1981, 2006 ve 2019 Türkçe dersi öğretim programlarına göre hazırlanan ortaokul düzeyindeki Türkçe ders kitaplarının söz konusu dönüşümden ne ölçüde etkilendiğini ortaya çıkarmak için kitaplarda kullanılan tamamlayıcı ölçme araçları incelenmiştir. Tamamlayıcı ölçme araçlarının program felsefesi gereği 2006 öncesi kitaplarda kullanılmadığı, ilk kez 2006’dan itibaren kullanılmaya başlandığı ancak bu kullanımın da yetersiz olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Bu araçların hem programlardaki hem alanyazındaki çeşitliliğinin Türkçe ders kitaplarına yeterince yansımadığı, sınırlı sayıda ölçme aracının kullanıldığı, kullanılan bu ölçme araçlarının da öğrenme alanlarına ve sınıf seviyelerine dengeli olarak dağıtılmadığı ve okuma/dinleme/izleme alanlarının bu konuda ihmal edildiği tespit edilmiştir. Yine tamamlayıcı ölçme araçlarının kullanılma sıklığının 2006’dan 2019’a gelindiğinde azaldığı ortaya konmuştur. Dil becerilerini ölçerken yeni programların felsefesinin getirdiği imkânlardan yeterince yararlanılmadığı, bunların da birtakım sınırlılıklara sebep olduğu görülmüştür.

Fantastik ve Büyülü Gerçekçi Edebiyatın İzinde Aykut Ertuğrul Öykücülüğü
Authors: Can Muhammet
Published: September 2024

Çağdaş Türk edebiyatının dikkat çeken öykücülerinden olan Aykut Ertuğrul, eserlerinde fantastik ve büyülü gerçekçiliği kullanarak kendine özgü bir öykü dili geliştirmiştir. Fantastiğin yadırgatıcı ve merak uyandırıcı gücü ile büyülü gerçekçiliğin etkileyici atmosferini bir araya getiren Ertuğrul’un, okuru aşina olduğu zaman ve mekânlara yabancılaştırarak şaşırtma ve tanıdık konuları alışılmadık şekilde anlatarak onu bunlar üzerine yeniden düşündürme yoluna gittiği görülmektedir. Öykülerinde bilinen dünyaya sızan olağanüstü ve doğaüstü unsurları genellikle masal, mit, halk hikâyesi, Kur’an kıssaları gibi yerli geleneksel anlatılara dayandıran Ertuğrul, bu anlatılardan ve halk kültüründen gelen kahraman ve motifleri, modernist ve postmodernist anlatım teknikleriyle harmanlamaktadır. Fantastik ve büyülü gerçekçi kipleri kullanarak metinlerin anlam alanını genişleten ve okura eğlenceli ve düşündürücü bir okuma deneyimi sunan Ertuğrul, öykülerinde güncel politik ve toplumsal sorunların yanı sıra modern bireyin sıkışmışlığı, kahraman olamama yazgısı, döngüsel zaman ve kaderin kaçınılmazlığı gibi felsefi ve metafizik izleklere de sıkça yer vermektedir. Literatürde zaman zaman birbirine karıştırıldığı görülen fantastik, fantezi ve büyülü gerçekçilik kavramlarının detaylıca irdelendiği bu makalede, Aykut Ertuğrul’un fantastik ve büyülü gerçekçilik kipi kullandığı öyküleri; olağanüstünün kişiler, nesneler, zaman ve mekâna yansımaları ile distopya, fal ve büyü ögelerinin kullanımları bakımından incelenmiş ve böylelikle yazarın fantastik evreninin mahiyeti ortaya konulmuştur.
Climate Justice und der ethical turn in der Psychoanalyse
Authors: Fellner Markus
Published: September 2024

Nach einer kurzen Auseinandersetzung mit dem Begriff wissenschaftlicher Neutralität soll das Konzept der radical ethics von Donna Orange vor dem Hintergrund des ethical turn in der Psychoanalyse vorgestellt werden – in dem Emmanuel Levinas’ Denken von Alterität eine zentrale Rolle spielt. Hier zeigt sich eine radikale Form von dezentrierter Subjektivität und damit ein radikales Differenzdenken, das im Prinzip den Kern des psychoanalytischen Subjektbegriffs auf eine sehr spannende, grundlegende und produktive Weise in Unruhe versetzt. Im Anschluss daran soll dieses radikale Differenzdenken durch eine universalistische (und auch radikale) Perspektive, wie sie derzeit Markus Gabriel und Omri Boehm vorlegen, wieder eingefangen werden, um sie am Schluss den theoretischen Suchbewegungen von Dipesh Chakrabarty, in denen neue Begriffe der ›Spezies‹ und ›Planetarität‹ skizziert werden, zuzuführen.
Klimakrise und Menschenbild
Authors: Wirth Hans-Jürgen
Published: September 2024

Der Beitrag untersucht den Zusammenhang zwischen der Klimakrise und verschiedenen Menschenbildern. Es werden soziologische, psychoanalytische, evolutionsbiologische und philosophische Menschenbilder diskutiert. In den verschiedenen Erklärungsansätzen für die Ursachen der Klimakrise spielen Menschenbilder eine zentrale Rolle. Folgende Menschenbilder werden diskutiert: der Mensch als Maschine, der Mensch als bio-psycho-soziales System, der homo oeconomicus, der Mensch als Zerstörer, der Mensch als Triebwesen, der Mensch als »weltoffenes« Wesen, der Mensch als »ultra-soziales« Wesen, der Mensch als selbstreflexives Wesen. Alle Menschenbilder haben theoretische Stärken und Schwächen. Die Herausarbeitung der Menschenbilder ermöglicht auch eine Einschätzung und Bewertung der vorgeschlagenen Strategien zur Lösung der Klimakrise.
Ein alter Mensch wird misshandelt
Authors: Hirsch Rolf D.
Published: September 2024

Jeder Mensch ist verletzlich und der Gewalt im öffentlichen, familiären und institutionellen Bereich ausgesetzt. Bei alten Menschen ist die Verletzlichkeit erheblich größer und auch die Vulnerabilität höher als bei jüngeren. Will man Gewalt gegen alte Menschen sichtbar, fassbar und in all ihren möglichen Formen verstehbar machen, bedarf es eines sozio-psycho-somatischen Verständnisses. Psychodynamische Aspekte können hierzu einen besonderen Beitrag leisten, da sie innere und äußere Gewalt erfassen sowie bewusste und unbewusste Bereiche einbeziehen. Zudem verdeutlichen sie die destruktiven Formen der Beziehung, in welcher Gewalt stattfindet, und betonen, dass Gewalt ein Prozess ist, der je nach Lebensgeschichte bei den Beteiligten sehr unterschiedlich sein kann.
Berteologi dalam krisis: Pembacaan hermeneutik trauma terhadap metafora gender Allah dalam kitab Yeremia
Authors: Siahaan Vera Herawati
Published: September 2024

This study examines the use of gender metaphors for God in the book of Jeremiah through the lens of trauma hermeneutics and contemporary gender theory. In situations of crisis, gender metaphors play a crucial role in describing the relationship between God and his people, enabling traumatized communities to articulate their suffering and seek healing. The analysis reveals how traumatic experiences shape the way people talk about God and open up space for more inclusive language. This approach is relevant to contemporary theology, offering a more transformative perspective for addressing global challenges. This study invites us to critique binary gender constructions and develop a more complex and inclusive understanding of God.
 
Abstrak
Penelitian ini mengkaji penggunaan metafora gender untuk Allah dalam kitab Yeremia melalui lensa hermeneutik trauma dan teori gender kontemporer. Dalam situasi krisis, metafora gender memainkan peran penting dalam menggambarkan hubungan antara Allah dan umat-Nya, memungkinkan komunitas yang mengalami trauma untuk mengartikulasikan penderitaan mereka dan mencari pemulihan. Analisis ini mengungkapkan bagaimana pengalaman traumatis membentuk cara orang berbicara tentang Tuhan dan membuka ruang bagi bahasa yang lebih inklusif. Pendekatan ini relevan untuk konteks teologi kontemporer, menawarkan perspektif yang lebih kaya dan transformatif untuk menghadapi tantangan global. Penelitian ini mengajak kita untuk mengkritisi konstruksi biner gender dan mengembangkan pemahaman yang lebih kompleks dan inklusif tentang Tuhan.
