Methodological approaches to forming strategic alliances
Authors: Shandova N. , Shandov R.
Published: February 2025

The article is devoted to a comprehensive study of methodological approaches to the creation of strategic alliances, identification of their applicability and limitations in the context of the current economic conditions of Ukraine. For domestic companies, strategic alliances, as a tool for cooperation between Ukrainian and international companies, public and private organisations, can play a crucial role in ensuring the adaptation of companies to market conditions characterised by an unstable political situation and limited opportunities for internal financing. The study identifies three key approaches: systemic, resource and institutional, justified by their widespread use in global practice and the universality of the analysis of complex organisational interactions. Their main provisions, principles and peculiarities of application in different economic conditions are analysed. Particular attention is paid to their application in the context of the Ukrainian economy, which makes it possible to identify the strengths and weaknesses of each approach. The systemic approach views strategic alliances as complex systems in which interaction and coordination between all elements are important, as well as consideration of the impact of the external environment. It helps to assess how internal processes and relationships in an alliance affect its success. The resource approach focuses on the pooling and efficient use of alliance members' resources, which helps to increase their competitiveness and achieve synergies. The institutional approach focuses on external factors, such as laws, regulations, social and economic institutions, that influence the formation and development of strategic alliances. However, in the context of modern Ukraine, where military conflicts, economic instability and the need for post-war reconstruction have a significant impact, traditional approaches are not always sufficient. In this regard, the article proposes an adaptive approach as the most relevant in the context of the crisis and economic uncertainty faced by Ukrainian enterprises. It is based on the flexibility and ability of enterprises to quickly adapt to changes in the external environment. Recommendations on the use of this approach for the creation of strategic alliances in modern conditions are provided.
Crisis management of Kharkiv cultural sphere in the conditions of martial law
Authors: Piliuhina K.
Published: February 2025

The article is devoted to the study of models and scenarios of Crisis Management in cultural institutions of a city Kharkiv under martial law. The relevance of the study lies in the insufficient development and under-research of ways of Crisis Management in the cultural sphere, the search for which has become an urgent need for cultural institutions with the spread of COVID-19 pandemic, and has especially intensified with the beginning of a full-scale invasion of the territory of Ukraine. The relevance of the research topic is also associated with random and spontaneous scenarios of decision-making by cultural institutions (such as museums, galleries, educational centers) in the state of crisis, with the lack of anti-crisis management algorithms and the recommendations for the evacuation of cultural values at the level of administrative management by government bodies. With the beginning of a full-scale invasion, cultural institutions of a city Kharkiv and all Ukraine found themselves in a state of uncertainty about further steps in the gradual withdrawal of the institution from the state of crisis in such issues as: securing cultural values, their evacuation; the search for resources for the functioning of the institution and its personnel, as well as for the elimination of damage due to rocket attacks; the search for alternative ways for the institution to fulfill its main mission and tasks, such as exhibition activities and popularization of cultural heritage. The purpose of the study is to determine the models and stages of Crisis Management in cultural institutions of a city Kharkiv during 2022 – 2023. The practical basis of the study is an expert questionnaire survey and the results of interviews with heads of cultural institutions of a city Kharkiv, conducted by the author independently. The author reveals the essence of Crisis Management in the field of culture at the level of local management of a cultural institution and at the level of state/regional management of the cultural sphere. The article reveals the issues regarding the role of international organizations, donors, and business collaboration with the field of culture in times of crisis. Models and stages of Crisis Management in cultural institutions of a city Kharkiv are identified, which reveal the process of anti-crisis management in galleries, museums and educational centers, including those that are units of V. N. Karazin Kharkiv National University.
Management of municipal land property in Ukraine: problems and solutions
Authors: Yasinetska I. , Kushniruk T. , Hryb V.
Published: February 2025

The article deals with the problems of municipal land property management in Ukraine. According to the authors, these problems are quite complex and multifaceted, but there are various ways to solve them. The paper emphasizes the need for systematic work to optimize the management of this category of property in order to ensure efficient use of land resources and increase the corresponding investments in regional development. The study considers the main aspects of the process of implementation of the national land use mechanism in the general system of land management. The authors note that one of the main problems of municipal land property management in Ukraine is insufficient legal and regulatory framework in this area. The work also proves that the legal regulation of municipal land property management is scattered and unsystematic, resulting in contradictions between state and regional legislation, and there is no clarity in defining the competence of different levels of government. The article emphasizes the absence of a unified concept for the development of municipal land property at the state level, which has no legislative support and does not allow solving all the problems of the sphere. special attention is focused on the need to develop comprehensive regulations that will unify existing laws and provide a clear system of rules and procedures. The paper identifies the problem of the complexity of the process of obtaining land rights for individuals and legal entities. We also emphasize the low efficiency of mechanisms for controlling the use of municipal land, which causes the risk of unjustified spending of budget funds and violation of the rights of citizens and legal entities to use this land. As a result, the author underlines the need to create a unified and systematic model of legal regulation of municipal land property management in Ukraine, which will ensure more efficient use and protection of these lands.
“Front-load” your co-design—evidence in mental health supports it
Authors: Bensemann Clive , O’Keeffe Karen , Pearson Arana , Ryan Jacqueline , Wairama Karl , Keelan Wi
Published: February 2025

Co-design in quality improvement projects is well-established as an effective way of creating more consumer-centred, whānau-centred
care, and to shape solutions that work for consumers as well as services. However, in practice, consumers of health services, families
and whānau are often consulted after key decisions about project design are made. This can result in tokenism, missed opportunities
for improvement and breached obligations to the Māori right to autonomy, self-determination and control of their own destiny as
expressed in Article 2 of Te Tiriti o Waitangi.
“Front-loaded” co-design was used in selection of project areas and project design in Te Tāhū Hauora – New Zealand Health Quality
& Safety Commission’s mental health quality improvement work and has been critical to success. With broad sector consultation,
one area mental health consumers agreed was a priority for improvement was elimination of seclusion in mental health services,
particularly for Māori who experienced significant health inequity in this area. This aim was considered unachievable by many in the
sector at the time. However, the zero seclusion project has successfully contributed to reductions in rates of seclusion of all ethnicities,
and continues to do so.
“Front-loaded” co-design with Māori and consumer guidance is critical to this success. Furthermore, true co-design also ensures the
mana motuhake and tino rangatiratanga (self-determination and control over one’s own destiny) of Māori, and of all peoples who use
our health services.
Clinical alert: arrival of terbinafine resistant Trichophyton indotineae in New Zealand
Authors: McKinney Wendy , Blakiston Matthew , Roberts Sally , Morris Arthur
Published: February 2025

background: Over the past decade there has been a rapid emergence of a new dermatophyte species Trichophyton indotineae (T.
indotineae) in the Indian subcontinent, with associated global spread. It is noted for extensive recalcitrant infections and high rates of
terbinafine resistance that are changing treatment paradigms for tinea infection.
aim: To report on the epidemiology of dermatophyte infections from the National Mycology Reference Laboratory at Auckland City
Hospital and the arrival of T. indotineae in New Zealand.
methods: This was a retrospective review of laboratory data from January 2017 to August 2024. Antifungal susceptibility was
performed by disc testing. Species identification was performed by phenotypic methods and for a limited number of isolates by DNA
sequence analysis.
results: There were 961 dermatophytes identified. Trichophyton rubrum was the most common species, accounting for 72% of all
isolates. There were 85 (9%) confirmed or probable T. indotineae identified from 63 individuals. These included both Auckland isolates
and isolates referred from laboratories around the country. Of the 49 T. indotineae isolates that had antifungal susceptibility testing
performed, only 30 (61%) were susceptible to terbinafine, while 45 (92%) were susceptible to itraconazole.
conclusions: Terbinafine resistant T. indotineae has arrived in New Zealand. To assist appropriate management, practitioners
encountering extensive tinea infection, particularly if failing terbinafine treatment, should request culture, asking for full dermatophyte
identification and susceptibility testing. Itraconazole is the recommended treatment for T. indotineae, and up to 12 weeks duration
may be required.

Published: February 2025

Gandana is an experimental sound ensemble formed by Jogja Disability Art with instrument maker Nanang Garuda. Gandana together with the instrument maker has the concept of sound deliberation. Sound deliberation is a responsive tone-by-tone improvisation that is played spontaneously. Inclusive development in various sectors, including arts in Indonesia, accommodates the artistic expression of artists with disabilities, such as Suluh Sumurup Art Fest 2023 and Biennale 2023. Various stages of experimentation were passed by Gandana and the instrument maker as a forum for creative sound deliberation. This article shows that sound deliberation is Gandana’s desire to play. The relevance between social identity and play desires is used to get recognition from other communities. Data was obtained through literature study, interviews, documentation, and observations at two locations, Suluh Sumurup Art Fest and Jogja Biennale 2023 Interview was conducted at Rumah Museum Garuda with six informants, including Nanang Garuda as the instrument maker and Gandana’s members. The data is divided into two categories, primary and secondary. This research applies inductive logic, where the exploration began through field studies, interviews, and observations. The data then got into the analysis stage to produce a systematic description of the findings. This research reveals that sound deliberation is a playful desire used by Gandana to unite the sense and soul of others, as well as build meditative nuances through the repetition of sounds.

Weak solvability of the initial-boundary value problem for the second-order Kelvin-Voigt model with smoothed Jaumann derivative
Authors: Zvyagin V. G. , Turbin M. V.
Published: February 2025

The paper establishes the solvability in the weak sense of the initial-boundary value problem for the second-order Kelvin-Voigt model with smoothed Jaumann time derivative taking into account the memory of fluid motion. For the proof, a problem approximating the original one is considered, and its solvability is established based on a priori estimates of solutions and the Leray-Schauder degree theory. After that, the limit transition is carried out as the approximation parameter tends to zero, and it is shown that the solutions of the approximation problem weakly converge to the solution of the original problem.
Classification of the Calogero equations with respect to point transformations
Authors: Kuznetsova V. P. , Streltsova I. S.
Published: February 2025

The article is devoted to the problem of classification of Calogero-type equations with respect to point transformations. It is known that Calogero equations can be reduced to linear equations using contact transformations, provided that the function f is quadratic. However, for an arbitrary function f the equivalence problem is open. Admissible point transformations that preserve the class of Calogero equations are considered. We construct differential invariants with respect to such transformations and apply them to solve the equivalence problem.

Comparison of Machine Learning Methods for Predicting Electrical Energy Consumption
Authors: Wahyusari Retno , Sunardi Sunardi , Fadlil Abdul
Published: February 2025

This research investigates how to accurately predict electrical energy consumption to address growing global energy demands. The study employs three Machine Learning (ML) models: k-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Random Forest (RF), and CatBoost. To enhance prediction accuracy, the researchers included a data pre-processing step using min-max normalization. The analysis utilized a dataset containing 52,416 records of power consumption from Tetouan City. The dataset was divided into training and testing sets using different ratios (90:10, 80:20, 50:50) to evaluate model performance. Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) and Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) were used to assess prediction accuracy. Min-max normalization significantly improved KNN's performance (reduced RMSE and MAPE). RF achieved similar accuracy with and without normalization. CatBoost also demonstrated stable performance regardless of normalization. Data pre-processing, specifically min-max normalization, is crucial for improving the accuracy of distance-based algorithms like KNN. Decision tree-based algorithms like RF and CatBoost are less sensitive to data normalization. These findings emphasize the importance of selecting appropriate pre-processing techniques to optimize energy consumption prediction models, which can contribute to better energy management strategies.
TRANSFORMATION OF THE ACTIVITIES OF MODERN MUSEUMS IN THE CONTEXT OF DIGITAL CULTURE
Authors:   Institute of Sociology of the NAS of Belarus, Smykova Evgeniya Yu.
Published: February 2025

The article is attempted to interpret the museum in the context
of a new modernity, formed in the context of structural changes in the society.
As a result of the active introduction of digital technologies into the museum
space, the content of cultural potential has been significantly transformed and
representation in the global network has led to the complication of representation models. The dual nature of the museum – physical and digital spaces,
makes it possible to diversify the process of communication with visitors, introduce qualitatively new interaction practices. The realized cases of museums
are a timely response to the request from visitors and act as an alternative to
expanding their cultural capital. In the context of new sociocultural trends
communication between the museum and the visitor is based on the principle
of equality not subordination, it is implemented in the format of a participatory
museum. In the modern world the scope of museums has gone beyond their
classical understanding. Today museums are social innovators in solving signif﻿icant problems of society.

Abstract
Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety and efficacy of calcium d‐pantothenate and d‐panthenol for the renewal of its authorisation. Calcium d‐pantothenate and d‐panthenol are currently authorised as nutritional feed additives for all animal species and categories. The FEEDAP Panel concluded that the use of calcium d‐pantothenate and d‐panthenol as feed additive in animal nutrition under the conditions of use is of no concern for the safety of the target species, the consumer and the environment. Calcium d‐pantothenate is not irritant to skin and eyes and is not a dermal sensitiser. d‐panthenol is considered to be a skin and eye irritant and a dermal and respiratory sensitiser. There is no need for assessing the efficacy of the additive in the context of this renewal of the authorisation.

Abstract
Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety and efficacy of l‐arginine produced with Corynebacterium glutamicum KCCM 80387 as a nutritional feed additive for all animal species (category: nutritional additive; functional group: amino acids, their salts and analogues; and category: sensory additives; functional group: flavouring compounds). The production strain C. glutamicum KCCM 80387 is a genetically modified strain and raises no safety concerns. The FEEDAP Panel concluded that the additive does not pose any safety concern with regard to the production strain. The use of l‐arginine produced by fermentation with C. glutamicum KCCM 80387 in feed as nutritional additive or as flavouring compound is safe for the target species. The FEEDAP Panel has concerns on the use of l‐arginine in water for drinking. The use of l‐arginine produced by fermentation with C. glutamicum KCCM 80387 in animal nutrition is considered safe for the consumers and for the environment. As regards the safety for the user, l‐arginine produced with C. glutamicum KCCM 80387 is not irritant to skin, and not a dermal sensitiser but is irritant to the eyes and respiratory tract. The additive l‐arginine produced by fermentation with C. glutamicum KCCM 80387 is regarded as an efficacious source of the essential amino acid l‐arginine for non‐ruminant nutrition. For the supplemental l‐arginine to be as efficacious in ruminants as in non‐ruminant species, it requires protection against degradation in the rumen. l‐Arginine is also considered efficacious when used as a flavouring compound in animal nutrition.

Authors: Tiwari Iti , Mudgal Abhay
Published: February 2025

Indian writers have significantly impacted literature worldwide by offering new perspectives and compelling stories to people globally. Authors such as Rushdie, R.K. Narayan, and Rabindranath Tagore have brought Indian stories and personalities to life through their works, infusing them with the rich flavours and textures of Indian culture. Raja Rao significantly contributed to the development of the English novel in India. He skillfully fictionalises the diverse socio-cultural, economic, and interpersonal interactions of different people. These elements of Indian ethos include religiosity and spirituality. Achakka, a character in the novel, narrates how Kanthapura assimilates the oral traditions seen as deeply rooted in the Indian knowledge system.This paper highlights Rao’s narrative techniques and how he uses oral traditions to portray India's freedom struggle. Further, the paper intends to explore Raja Rao’s Kanthapura as a narrative rooted in Indian oral tradition. It emphasises how Moorthy uses Harikatha and Bhajans to unite people and fight for independence. This paper attempts to establish how Raja Rao used oral traditions that were deeply rooted in Indian society and played a significant role in India's freedom struggle.

AI and Dialect Recognition: Challenges and Opportunities in Linguistic Diversity
Authors: Alwi Shaliza , Mohd Saleh Masrina Nadia , Md Mansor Mohamad Naqiuddin
Published: February 2025

This article explores the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and dialect recognition, highlighting both the challenges and opportunities presented by linguistic diversity. As globalization increases, the need for effective communication across dialects becomes paramount. Recent advancements in machine learning, particularly deep learning, have transformed the capabilities of AI in understanding and processing human language. This article examines the current state of dialect recognition technologies, the linguistic complexities involved, and the implications for social inclusion and technological advancement. By analyzing recent studies (2013–2024), this article aims to provide insights into the future of AI-driven dialect recognition systems, identifying key areas for further research and development. The study highlights significant breakthroughs in artificial intelligence-driven terminology recognition tools. Important problems include the inability of technology to generalise over a wide range of dialects, the under-representation of low-resource dialects in training datasets, and biases that reflect cultural preconceptions. These difficulties give rise to concerns regarding inclusivity and fairness, as well as the fact that marginalised communities frequently experience failures in acknowledgement. To enhance cultural sensitivity and trust, the study underscores the significance of ethical frameworks that prioritise diversity, interdisciplinary collaboration with linguists and sociologists, and community engagement. Transfer learning is a promising solution for the mitigation of low-resource dialects and the preservation of linguistic diversity. The article also emphasises the importance of ongoing monitoring to accommodate evolving sociocultural and linguistic environments, as well as the ethical implications of implementing such technologies in sensitive situations.
Cross-Linguistic Influence on Relative Clause Structure: An Experimental Study of Resumptive Pronouns in an Arab ESL Speaker
Authors: Alotaibi Khalid M.
Published: February 2025

This study examines the influence of first language (L1) on the use of resumptive pronouns (RPs) in English by an Arab second language (L2) learner. Specifically, it investigates whether the participant’s grammatical judgments and preferences in English relative clauses (RCs) reflect transfer from Arabic. The study involved a grammaticality/preference task, where the informant, an Arab female studying English in the United States, was presented with a series of sentences containing resumptive pronouns. She was asked to identify the correct or most preferable sentence structures. The results indicate a tendency to favor English RCs that resemble Arabic structures in their use of RPs, suggesting cross-linguistic influence. Notably, the participant demonstrated a preference for structures where resumptive pronouns appeared in object and prepositional positions, aligning with Arabic syntactic norms. These findings contribute to the broader understanding of syntactic transfer in second language acquisition, particularly in relation to learners whose native languages permit resumptive pronouns in contexts where they are ungrammatical in English. The study highlights the necessity for targeted instructional strategies in ESL classrooms to address such transfer issues, emphasizing explicit awareness of RC structures across languages. Future research should explore larger populations and additional syntactic environments to further investigate the scope of cross-linguistic influence on relative clause formation among Arab ESL learners.

Published: February 2025

One of the most striking methodological developments in geography during the last two decades is concern with soil erosion. This study of geographic space is part of a more general trend in modern geography, which has been termed the physical revolution, and which followed the quantitative revolution of solving and analyzing soil erosion problems.

Very few models have the potential to predict ephemeral gully erosion sites, for example, CREAM, WEPP, and EGEM. The Ephemeral Gully Erosion Model (EGEM), A method for computing ephemeral gully erosion was developed under the direction of Dr. John Laflen, USDA, Agricultural Research Service (ARS), to predict soil loss by ephemeral gully erosion.

Erosion of farm fields due to concentrated flow is severe in many parts of Isuikwuota. Soil erosion prediction methods currently in use include the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) and Revised USLE. These methods account for sheet and rill erosion and not for erosion from concentrated flow. The term “ephemeral gully” has been applied to a concentrated flow channel larger than a rill routinely obliterated due to tillage operations. An estimation technique for ephemeral gully erosion is needed both to quantify the problem and analyze alternatives for the solution of the problem. With renewed interest in modeling ephemeral gully erosion in agricultural areas, the EGEM model could be the basis for an improved model with stronger physically based algorithms, wider geographical applicability, and watershed application using GIS.

Authors: Piyush Nakum  , Bhavna Singh  , Hitesh Solanki
Published: February 2025

In order to preserve the genetic diversity of plant species, seed banks are essential organizations for the conservation of plant biodiversity. They serve as a buffer against extinction brought on by habitat loss, climate change, and environmental changes by storing seeds of both wild and domesticated plants. The idea of seed banks is examined in this review study along with their varieties, operational procedures, and obstacles, such as seed viability, resource scarcity, contamination hazards, and the effects of climate change. It also emphasizes how crucial seed banks are to preserving biodiversity, assisting with ecological restoration initiatives, and guaranteeing food security. Future directions for seed bank development are also covered in the report, with an emphasis on the necessity of better technology, international cooperation, and including local populations in conservation initiatives. To sum up, seed banks are essential to the long-term conservation of biodiversity, and resolving present issues will guarantee their continuous efficacy in protecting plant species for coming generations.

Published: February 2025

Healthcare organizations are increasingly dependent on digital technologies, such as Electronic Health Records (EHRs) and Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) devices, to improve patient care and streamline medical processes. However, this digital transformation has introduced significant cybersecurity risks, including ransomware attacks, data breaches, and unauthorized access to sensitive health data. This paper provides a comprehensive review of cybersecurity threats in healthcare, examines vulnerabilities in EHR systems and connected medical devices, explores encryption and blockchain technologies for data protection, evaluates regulatory frameworks such as HIPAA and GDPR, and discusses case studies of major cyber incidents. The study concludes with future directions for improving cybersecurity resilience in healthcare systems.
Ludis, lex Sportiva, lex Mercatoria: A comparative analysis of informal legal orders in a globalized world
Authors: Francesco Ernesto Alessi Longa
Published: February 2025

This article looks at the development and interaction of three types of law: ludis (playful culture), lex sportiva (the sporting law), and lex mercatoria (commercial law). Though each arose to meet particular social and economic purposes – from sociability to sporting control to trade – these legal systems exhibit autonomic regulation, dynamic creation of norms, and arbitration of disputes. Based on historical analysis, theoretical review, and current practices, this study establishes how non-state legal systems have contributed to legal pluralism and still affect the global legal systems. It concludes by identifying the potential and difficulties of combining these systems within the formal state structures in a increasingly interconnected world.

Design and Implementation of Client-Side, Service-Based Caching Techniques for Cost Reduction in Cloud Backend Client-Side, Service-Based Systems
Authors:   Korean Institute of Smart Media, Seo Jiung , Jang Joonhyouk
Published: February 2025

The increase in the usage of backend services has led to a sharp rise in load and costs for cloud-based systems. This not only slows down the performance of client software but also increases the cost burden on backend service users. To address these issues, We designed a system that caches user data, such as profile information, user settings, and recent activities, on the client side. This approach reduces server requests, thereby alleviating server load and lowering cloud operation costs. Additionally, the cached data is encrypted to enhance security and ensure data integrity. A prototype of the proposed system was implemented in commercial software. This study details the design and implementation process of the system and validates its performance improvement and cost reduction through experiments
Mujeres públicas versus salubridad pública. El control sanitario de la prostitución en el centro de México, 1876-1910
Authors: Rivera Reynaldos Lisette Griselda
Published: February 2025

En el México de la segunda mitad del siglo XIX, la preocupación por la higiene pública como una manifestación del progreso político y social que se pretendía alcanzar, hizo que uno de los problemas a combatir con más esfuerzo lo fuera la expansión de enfermedades venéreas. En este marco, la mujer pública fue considerada como la principal responsable de la propagación de dichos males, por lo cual la política impulsada durante la presidencia del general Porfirio Díaz en torno a la prostitución y bajo el amparo del reglamentarismo y de las ideas higienistas, descansó en buena medida en el establecimiento de un control sanitario sobre las prostitutas, por medio de exámenes médicos obligatorios con los que se pretendió garantizar la salubridad pública.
La imagen de la maternidad en la España de finales del siglo XIX y principios del XX
Authors: Morata Marco Eva María
Published: February 2025

En las últimas décadas del siglo XIX el movimiento higienista español inició una campaña de popularización de la higiene infantil similar a las realizadas en otros países occidentales, proponiendo la necesidad una nueva idea de maternidad moderna, instruida específicamente. La imagen de esta maternidad fue presentada por los médicos en sus revistas especializadas y manuales para el cuidado de los niños, a través de unos rasgos bien definidos. Este trabajo trata de mostrar, a través de un análisis iconográfico comparativo, las diferencias e incluso oposiciones existentes entonces entre las concepciones e ideas que se ocultaban tras esta novedosa representación y la que persistía entre la opinión pública general.
Mito y realidad de la "feminización del consumo" en la Europa moderna: Las pautas de consumo de las mujeres en el Penedés preindustrial
Authors: Moreno Claverías Belén
Published: February 2025

A finales del Setecientos emergieron algunas teorías para explicar la atracción que supuestamente las mujeres sentían por las frivolidades y las novedades, lo que las convertiría en consumidoras potenciales de estos objetos en mayor medida que los hombres. Sin embargo, prácticamente todos los trabajos que distinguen y caracterizan este "comportamiento femenino" en cuanto al consumo se basan en el análisis de un grupo muy reducido de mujeres: las de clase alta residentes en centros urbanos como París y Londres. Poco se sabe, en cambio, acerca de las pautas de consumo de la mayoría de mujeres, gran parte de las cuales eran pobres y residentes en ámbitos rurales. El principal objetivo de este artículo es hacer una aproximación a esta cuestión en un área concreta, la comarca catalana del Penedés, a partir, principalmente, del análisis de los inventarios post-mortem redactados entre 1670 y 1790. Para ello se presta particular atención a los efectos del régimen jurídico de la familia catalana y de los diversos estadios de la vida de las mujeres en su relación con la posesión y el uso de bienes.
Laicismo, derechos humanos y derechos femeninos en la masonería. Acerca de los cimientos en los siglos XVIII-XIX
Authors: Lacalzada de Mateo M.ª José
Published: February 2025

Anderson y Desanguliers (1717-1723) pusieron un cimiento al edificio masónico desde la Gran Logia de Londres, en la onda expansiva de la Ilustración, que no conmocionó la estructura patriarcal. El Gran Oriente de Francia estableció el rito de Adopción o de Damas en 1774. Era este un espacio alternativo, ahormado dentro de la cultura patriarcal. Marie Deraismes, iniciada en el Rito Escocés Antiguo y Aceptado (1882) y Georges Martín fundamentaron el trabajo masónico conjunto masculino-femenino, creando Le Droit Humain (1893). La idiosincrasia española se manifestó por entonces con una pluralidad de prácticas en las que intervinieron las mujeres, como plantearemos en las páginas siguientes.
El testimonio de dos damas medievales: Leonor López de Córdoba y Elena Quottanner
Authors: Cortés Timoner Mª Mar
Published: February 2025

Leonor López de Córdoba –nacida en torno a 1390 en Córdoba– es la primera escritora en lengua castellana. Conservamos de ella un texto conocido como Memorias, que combina elementos de las confesiones, de las autobiografías, de las memorias y de los testimonios espirituales.Las Memorias de Leonor López de Córdoba muestran interesantes coincidencias de estilo, temática y finalidad con las Memorias de Elena Quottaner, que nació en Austria hacia 1400. Elena es la primera escritora alemana y su texto se considera la primera autobiografía en la literatura germánica. Leonor y Elena fueron camareras de regentes viudas y jugaron un papel importante en la inestable situación política de sus respectivos países en el siglo XV. Las dos damas compusieron unos textos importantes que difieren de la historia oficial de las Crónicas y, por ello mismo, complementan sus informaciones.
