Published: December 2022

A interdisciplinaridade possibilita um trabalho pedagógico voltado para a integração dos saberes, para além das disciplinas, contribuindo para o currículo integrado no ensino médio na educação profissional e técnica (EPT). O diálogo que permeia o ensino interdisciplinar amplia o conhecimento cientifico e permite enriquecer a relação com o outro e com o mundo. Nessa perspectiva o currículo organiza o conhecimento e desenvolve o processo de ensino-aprendizagem de forma que os conceitos sejam apreendidos como sistema de relações de uma totalidade concreta que se pretende explicar. Para esta pesquisa diversos autores foram utilizados tais como Fazenda (2011), Luck (2010), Santomé (1998), Mool (2010) Moreira (2007), entre outros. Este trabalho tem como objetivo analisar as contribuições da interdisciplinaridade para a proposição de um currículo integrado. A metodologia abordada foi uma pesquisa bibliográfica e a coletânea de ensaios realizados dentro da disciplina Teorias e Práticas do Ensino e Aprendizagem, no período de setembro a dezembro de 2021. Essa disciplina faz parte do programa de mestrado do PROFEPT, campus Parnaíba. Espera-se que essa pesquisa contribua com uma nova percepção sobre como as ações interdisciplinares podem trazer contribuições para o currículo integrado, trazendo um repensar nas práticas que permeiam as ações dos docentes do ensino médio integrado.
RECONHECENDO OS VEGETAIS NO ENTORNO: ENSINO POR INVESTIGAÇÃO
Authors: ORTEGA LEILA SADDI , TIAGO FABIANA DA CONCEICAO PEREIRA
Published: December 2022

Este trabalho aborda sobre uma prática de ensino denominada “Reconhecendo os vegetais no entorno” para o ensino de Botânica, de maneira remota, devido à pandemia da Covid-19, numa perspectiva didática que concilia discernimento cognitivo por metodologias de investigação em práticas efetivadas em ambiente doméstico. O desenvolvimento ocorreu em três turmas do 1º ano do Ensino Médio Integrado do CEFET-MG (Centro Federal de Educação Tecnológica de Minas Gerais), em Belo Horizonte MG, na disciplina de Biologia. O referencial teórico deste trabalho é a teoria de ensino de Biologia por Investigação. Os alunos realizaram práticas em casa orientados pelas professoras, de observarem a morfologia e anatomia das plantas de ambientes domésticos ou de regiões próximas, aprendendo por averiguações e ampliando as linguagens científicas de vegetais conhecidos no dia a dia. Os alunos foram fundamentando, em grupos, e gradativamente, os conhecimentos científicos adquiridos, e atando-os às noções preexistentes como informações e percepções. O trabalho incluiu o desenvolvimento de habilidades com diferentes formas de linguagem: visual, por fotografias, científica pela utilização das Normas de Nomenclatura Científica dos Seres, e pela aplicação de conhecimentos de Metodologia Científica. A aprendizagem deu-se por desafios e pela resolução de problemas, como por exemplo a ausência de exemplares de cada grupo para serem fotografados. Como resultados deste trabalho percebemos pelas imagens que os alunos perceberam e correlacionaram as caraterísticas das plantas fotografadas aos conteúdos de botânica, buscando diferentes ângulos para poder identificar o vegetal no seu respectivo grande grupo. Esta ação propiciou a lapidação do discernimento para classificação dos vegetais, dada às características percebidas. O aluno participou proativamente, sendo o responsável pela sua aprendizagem e o professor atuou como orientador do processo. Evidenciamos uma motivação dos estudantes durante o processo e, como consequência, uma aprendizagem significativa de aspectos da Botânica como nomenclatura, classificação e morfologia dos Grupos Vegetais.

Published: December 2022

The study gauges the impact of refugee influx on the labor market in Pakistan. The impact of Afghan refugees is analyzed using three indicators of labor market namely, unemployment, formal employment and informal employment from years 1979 to 2022. For the purpose of analysis, ADF and PP tests are applied first for examining unit root problem. Variables are found having mixed order of integration so ARDL bound test for co-integration is used to derive long run and short run relationship between labor market indicators and refugee inflow. It is found that Afghan refugees have caused positive impact on the labor market of Pakistan in long run while in the short run, it increases unemployment rate. Expenditure on Education, CPI, GDP, Trade Openness and Gross Fixed Capital are significantly reducing Unemployment rate of Pakistan.  Expenditure on Education and Gross Fixed Capital are found to have positive effect while CPI and population Growth are reducing Formal Employment. Hence, it is concluded that refugees can serve as stimulus for investment and production in the country.
Analysis of Dyslipidemia as per Ayurveda and its Management
Authors: Hridya A
Published: December 2022

Dyslipidaemias refers to any abnormality in the level of circulating plasma lipids. It is an extremely significant condition, majorly because of its contribution to atherogenesis. It is an independent and modifiable risk factor for CAD and stroke. More than half of global cases of ischemic heart disease are associated with dyslipidemia. Quality of care for dyslipidemia is suboptimal in general and variable by cardiovascular disease risk group, ethnicity and gender. In modern medicine, there are effective dyslipidemic drugs which give rapid relief, but may cause some long term side effects. So there is a need for safe alternative treatment which may be effective in reducing lipid level, for prolonged use. In Ayurveda, dyslipidemia can be considered as a condition in which Kapha, Medas and Rasa are pathologically deranged due to Ama. There is defective Medo dhatu poshana due to Dhatwagnimandhya and formation of Ama at the level of Medo dhatu. It can be considered as presumable level of stage of Samprapti or a morbid state which may cause disease, but not attained a full status of disease. Nidanas include Beejadushti, Ahara – vihara –vikara and Manasika nidanas. Lipid profile can be brought back to normal by correcting Agni and ensuring proper Dhatuparinama. Treatment modalities include Nidana parivarjana, Sodhana, Samana, Rasayana and following Pathyapathya. Drug having Kaphamedohara, Deepana, Pachana, Ruksha and Lekhana property is useful to treat this clinical condition.

Published: December 2022

With the concepts of online teaching, the study examines

online teaching in light of the COVID 19 pandemic effects.

Online teaching is a new and different alternative to

traditional teaching which was enforced by most

governments and education systems in several developing

countries due to the pandemic, which in turn raised several

questions for teachers, students, and their parents. To this

end, the study's primary goal was to learn about the

perception of teachers as well as students and parents

regarding the satisfaction, merit, and challenges of online

teaching. Teachers, students, and parents were all polled in

this study. The findings of this study revealed that there is a

difference in satisfaction with online teaching, as well as the

perceptions of teachers, parents, and students, depending on

gender. Along with the merits and challenges of online

teaching the current study also examines the perceptions of

teachers regarding the difficulties associated with online

learning, which in major cases was related to the technology.

Authors: YAĞANOĞLU Elif , AYDIN Adil
Published: December 2022

This study was carried out to determine the effects of nitrogen and zinc applied in different doses (0.0, 0.5, 1 and 1.5 kg N/ha and 0.0 and 2.5 ppm Zn) to the soil sample taken from Erzurum Atatürk University Faculty of Agriculture Farm land on the dry matter content and mineral content of wheat and maize. It was carried out under greenhouse conditions in 96 pots (2 plants, 2 application methods, 4 nitrogen doses, 2 zinc doses and 3 replications). As a base fertilizer, it was applied to all pots before planting at doses of 1 kg P2O5/ha (TSP: 44.0% P2O5) and 1 kg K2O/ha (K2SO4: 50.0% K2O). Considering the applications, Urea and Zinc fertilizers were applied to the soil before planting in soil application, and from foliar application 5 times in every 2 weeks, starting one week after germination in foliar application. 90 days after sowing, the plants were harvested, dried, their dry weights were determined, the necessary analyzes were made and the plant mineral content was determined. According to the results obtained, nitrogen application from the soil was more effective, and the highest dry matter amount and plant height in both plants were obtained from the soil application of 1.5 kg N/ha urea and 2.5 ppm Zn. Depending on the applications, the dry matter increase is 77.5% in wheat and 80.4% in corn in application from soil. In foliar application, the dry matter increase is 11.4% in wheat and 30.6% in corn. A similar change has also emerged in plant height, the plants applied fertilizer from the soil are taller, with an average of 62.5 cm in wheat and 75.5 cm in maize. These values are on average 55.0 cm and 64.0 cm in plants applied foliar fertilizer. The mineral content of the plants applied foliar fertilizer is higher.

Published: December 2022

The epidemic disease called COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) has affected the whole world. With the spread of the epidemic, various measures such as distance education, home-office, and especially movement restrictions, have been tried to be taken. These measures have increased people's demand for healthy food. The formation of food safety awareness among in consumers has revealed the necessity of control of the controlling food chain (production, storage, transportation of products, etc.). In this process, animal products gained importance, especially as people paid more attention to their nutrition compared to previous years. Especially in this process, animal production should be systematically sustainable in order to meet the increasing animal protein needs of people. In this review, it aims to compile sensitive livestock systems in order to ensure the sustainability of animal production, the production of healthier animals and the production of the obtained products within the framework of food safety rules, with the cessation of mobility due to the measures taken under quarantine and social distance in the COVID-19 epidemic. Thus, in addition to reducing the human workforce during the epidemic process, the data collected with modern animal husbandry will prevent diseases, and facilitate the diagnosis and treatment processes in the event of a disease. With the use of information and communication technologies (ICT), which have an important place in this system, the data obtained through the modern livestock system can be easily processed, managed, and shared, thus reducing the possibility of disease transmission during the pandemic process.

Published: December 2022

The preservation of natural resources and the production of enough food to meet the demands of a growing human population, will be one of the most important challenges that the world will have to face in the coming years, hence the need to promote the sustainable use of the resources. The objective of this research was to evaluate the sustainability of the sheep production system in the páramo ecosystem, municipality of Cerrito-Santander, Colombia. A survey was applied to 15 sheep farmers, allowing the characterization of the production system and the georeferencing of farms. This information was analyzed by applying descriptive statistics, using SPSS software, version 24, this allowed to present the most relevant aspects of sheep production in the sector. Participatory workshops were held with the producers, to select and evaluate the sustainability indicators of sheep production systems in the páramo area, which were visualized by a biogram or spider web graph. Finally, strategic guidelines were formulated to respond to the critical points of sheep production. Most producers prefer the commercialization of wool and the use of the animal's discarded stages to obtain economic income from the sale of meat. Critical points (food supplements, type of state support received, use of veterinary services and use of energy sources) and favorable points (cost of raw materials, food security and water sources) were evidenced for the economic, social and environmental dimensions. It is necessary to focus attention on the critical points and apply the strategic guidelines, since together with the favorable points they will allow generation and establishment of more sustainable sheep production systems.

Foram caracterizadas as condições de saúde bucal e fatores associados em uma população de com participação de 373 indivíduos, com 18 anos ou mais, de ambos os gêneros. Um questionário com 89 perguntas foi autoaplicado e contemplava variáveis sociodemográficas, de hábitos, comportamentos, moradia e segurança, e condições de saúde bucal. Dos participantes, 73,2% eram mulheres, das quais 57,1% eram chefes de família, com média de idade de 48,9 anos. Brancos compuseram 44% da amostra. Quanto à escolaridade 42,6% tinham 12 anos ou mais de estudo. A condição bucal autorrelatada foi “boa” para 41%. A extração ou perda dentária foi relatada por 78% dos pesquisados, com maior perda na arcada dentária inferior. Dos que afirmaram usar “dentadura” ou “chapa” (33%), 17% correspondiam à arcada superior, e a maior necessidade foi percebida para ambas as arcadas (13%). A autopercepção necessidade de tratamento para cárie dentária (33%) foi superior aos problemas gengivais (14%). Em relação à dor de dente, 84% indicaram ter tido um episódio algum momento da vida, e para 56,4% isso ocorreu nos últimos 12 meses. Para 60% não houve recebimento de orientação acerca de prevenção ou saúde bucal nos últimos 12 meses. Em conclusão, a população estudada apresentou problemas bucais relevantes que podem estar associados a um contexto menos favorável, portanto são necessárias estratégias voltadas para a melhoria da condição de vida dos sujeitos que resultem em impactos positivos também na saúde bucal.

Published: December 2022

O presente trabalho apresenta de forma clara e concisa o modelamento e simulação de campos de deformação obtidos em treliças planas através de medidas de centralidade em refinamento de malha por nós influentes. É utilizado o método dos elementos finitos com algoritmo desenvolvido e programado em FORTRAN com representação gráfica para visualização dos resultados feita através do GNUPLOT. Comprara os resultados dos campos de deformações com os de deslocamentos nodais tradicionalmente calculados para elementos finitos de barras planas constituídos de dois nós de extremidades. Constata-se que através dos campos de deformação é possível determinar com maior acurácia os valores internos às treliças planas, possibilitando assim uma análise mais criteriosa quando ocorrem variações de materiais no mesmo componente estrutural, como é o caso do modelo de vigas de concreto armado cujo comportamento idealizado é o de uma treliça plana.
Visual Form and the Skin of the World
Authors: Hariman Robert
Published: December 2022

Photography reveals a world of forms and how those forms become the skin of world. By delineating the shapes, patterns, routines, and other forms that make up ordinary experience, photography reveals deep relationality and untapped potential that is never fully knowable yet evident on the surface of things. By extending copies into analogies, particularity into abstractions, and fragments into allegories, it becomes a way of liminal knowing and of lateral communication. These affordances are essential for addressing the existential crises that are built into modernity.
Vulvodynie: een uitdaging voor artsen
Authors: Ghysbrecht C. , Claerhout F.
Published: December 2022

Vulvodynia: a challenge for physicians

Vulvodynia is characterized by vulvar pain present for at least 3 months and for which no other cause can be found. The complaints can be localized, generalized or mixed, may occur spontaneously or be provoked, primary or secondary, intermittently or continuously, and immediately after the triggering stimulus or delayed.

The underlying pathogenesis mainly involves hyperinnervation and hypersensitization of both the peripheral and central nervous systems. This is elicited by an abnormal response to an initial trigger.

The diagnosis is made through a comprehensive history and clinical examination using the cotton swab test. Other causes for the complaints must be excluded.

Treatment requires an individual and multidisciplinary approach and a lot of patience. Comprehensive counselling of the patient about the expected duration and results of the treatment is crucial, so that realistic expectations are set. In primary care, attention should mainly be paid to behavioural changes regarding vulva care. In addition, psycho- and physiotherapy are indispensable. To this date, there is little evidence for the added value of drug therapy compared to a placebo. Experts recommend a topical treatment first. In second line, a switch can be made to oral therapy or local injections. Surgery can be an effective treatment, but given its invasive nature, it should only be considered if other treatments have not been successful. Alternative treatments include acupuncture and hypnosis.

Shabir’s “SMART-LAB” score for predicting complicated appendicitis-a prospective study
Authors: Ahmad Mir Shabir , Din Wani Mumtaz
Published: December 2022

Objective: Complicated appendicitis needs an aggressive and urgent management, hence there is need of an efficient scoring system for predicting complicated appendicitis. With this in mind, the author developed the present scoring system for predicting complicated acute appendicitis. The study aimed to assess the suitability of this novel (Shabir’s SMART-LAB) score for predicting diagnosis of complicated appendicitis.

Material and Methods: In this prospective study, a novel score designated as “SMART-LAB” SCORE, proposed by the author (Shabir) based on his previous observations was calculated in all patients. This score includes sonography (S), migratory right iliac fossa pain (M), anorexia (A), rebound tenderness (R), tenderness (T), leukocytosis (L), Acute phase protein-CRP (A), and serum bilirubin (B).

Results: Of a total of 150 patients included in this study, 52 cases turned out to be perforated and/or gangrenous appendicitis on intraoperative/histopathologic examination. The most commonly affected age group was 10-19 years. SMART-LAB score of >9 was present in significantly higher number of patients in complicated (perforated and gangrenous) appendicitis than uncomplicated appendicitis (p value<0.001 i.e., highly significant). Hence, high likelihood of complicated appendicitis is reflected by a score >9 (with a sensitivity= 80.7%, specificity= 92.9%, PPV= 85.7%, NPV= 90.1%, and accuracy= 88.7%), while a score 7-9 needs further confirmation to reach a conclusion, and for a score of <7, there is low likelihood of complicated appendicitis.

Conclusion: It seems that this novel score (Shabir’s SMART-LAB score) is a reasonably good tool to predict the diagnosis of complicated appendicitis. Early diagnosis of appendiceal perforation is important to limit the associated abdominal sepsis.

Objective: In this paper, it was tried to determine the incidence of COVID-19, course of the disease, and mortality rate in liver transplant patients by evaluating all patients operated on in our center. In addition, the results of liver transplantation performed in our center during the pandemic period were also presented.

Material and Methods: All patients who had undergone liver transplantation in our liver transplant center were questioned about their history of COVID-19 either at their routine controls in the clinic or by phone interview.

Results: Our liver transplant unit had 195 registered liver transplantation patients (2002-2020), and 142 of these were still alive and under follow-up. During the pandemic period, 80 patients referred to our outpatient clinic for follow-up, and their records were evaluated retrospectively in January 2021. Among 142 liver transplant patients, a total of 18 (12.6%) COVID-19 patients were identified. While 13 of these patients were males, mean age of the patients at the time of interviews was 48.8 years (22-65 years). Nine of the patients had living donor liver transplant, and the rest had cadaveric liver transplant. The most common COVID-19 associated symptom in the patients was fever. During the pandemic period, 12 liver transplant operations were performed in our center. Nine of them were living donor liver transplantation and the remainder were cadaveric liver transplantations. Two of our patients got COVID-19 positive during this period. One of them who was transplanted after COVID treatment was followed-up in intesive care for a long time and was lost not related to COVID-19.

Conclusion: The incidence of COVID-19 is higher in liver transplant patients than in the general population. Nonetheless, mortality rates are low. During the pandemic period, liver transplantation can be continued by following general precautions.

Blake’s “Introduction” and Hesiod’s Theogony
Authors: Fosso Kurt
Published: December 2022

Northrop Frye was, so far as I can find, the first critic to shine a light on the Greek poet Hesiod’s influence upon William Blake. Specifically, Frye judged the divine characters Tharmas and Enion from The Four Zoas (c. 1796) to be “probably the Thaumas and Eione of Hesiod’s Theogony.” Kathleen Raine, following upon Frye, in turn detected the Theogony’s presence in Blake’s The Book of Urizen (1794), and recently Paul Miner has uncovered significant Hesiodic allusions in The Book of Ahania (1795). The Theogony’s influence can similarly be traced in the divine struggles described in the continental prophecies America and Europe (1793, 1794).
William Blake’s Visionary Landscape near Felpham
Authors: Roberts Jonathan
Published: December 2022

Perhaps the most striking account of a religious vision that Blake offers is a poem enclosed in an 1800 letter to his friend and patron Thomas Butts. This rare moment of autobiographical verse, usually referred to by its first line, “To my Friend Butts,” describes Blake’s vision on the beach at Felpham. The poem is well known beyond Blake studies, as it occurs more frequently in anthologies of mysticism than any other passage from his work (with the possible exception of the opening lines of “Auguries of Innocence”). Yet within Blake studies it has received comparatively little scholarly attention. This may be due in part to its anomalous character, something that it shares with another work from the same period and place: Blake’s pencil and watercolor sketch Landscape near Felpham. I argue below that there is a significant and demonstrable relationship between these two works, and that this connection offers a valuable resource for reflection on our treatment of the relationship between the material and the transcendent in our discussion of Blake.
Blake in the Marketplace, 2013

Published: December 2022

After two hectic years, Blake collectors deserved a respite. It was not to be. January brought to auction Two Visionary Figures on a leaf from the Smaller Blake-Varley Sketchbook and, for the second time in seven years, The Gambols of Ghosts According with Their Affections Previous to the Final Judgement, one of Blake’s watercolor illustrations to Robert Blair’s The Grave. The estimate range for Gambols was considerably lower than in 2006, when bidders failed to exceed the reserve price. Sotheby’s New York succeeded this time at the top estimate of $600,000 ($722,500 inclusive of the buyer’s premium charged by the auction house).
“Did he who made the Lamb make the... Tyger”?
Authors: Borkowska Eliza
Published: December 2022

None of the “duets” Blake included in his Songs of Innocence and of Experience contains more questions than the pair of lyrics that will be the focus of this essay, “The Lamb” and “The Tyger.” And none of these questions provokes more critical speculation than the experienced speaker’s “Did he who made the Lamb make thee?” It is just one of the unanswered queries of “The Tyger,” but it catches the eye and inflames the pen the most. Though other questions precede and follow it, critical intuition or simply sensitivity to sense and structure suggests that this is the climax of the poem’s (or indeed the poems’) questioning.
Carl-Johan Malmberg, Stjärnan i foten. Dikt och bild, bok och tanke hos William Blake
Authors: Lindberg Ossian
Published: December 2022

Carl-Johan Malmberg has written a large book of about 450 pages on Blake generally, concentrating on what Jean Hagstrum called Blake’s composite art, his unique illuminated printing from copperplates on which text, image, and decoration stand up in relief and can be printed like woodcuts. The writer thinks that the question whether Blake was greatest as a poet or as a pictorial artist presupposes the idea that poetry is something distinct from painting, but Blake seems to have looked upon both as one thing, which he called “art.” Malmberg is up to date on recent Blake scholarship, knows Morton Paley personally, and has corresponded with Bob Essick. The book is beautifully printed, proofread with reasonable accuracy, and richly illustrated. In a final chapter there is a short summary of Blake’s life, but the book is mainly criticism, not biography. Informative notes are in the margins, including the original wording of scholars quoted in translation.
Michael Farrell, Blake and the Methodists
Authors: Lincoln Andrew
Published: December 2022

At the heart of this study is a detailed and very informative comparison of Blake and John Wesley. The book needs its wider title because it includes a chapter on the Moravians and glances at other eighteenth-century figures associated with Methodism, including George Whitefield and William Cowper. Some earlier studies have considered Blake in relation to Methodism, but this is the first comprehensive treatment. Farrell suggests that critics have been put off exploring this subject more fully by E. P. Thompson, who attributed his own disapproval of Methodism to Blake himself. Against Thompson, Farrell points out that Blake “undeniably held sympathies towards” Methodism, as shown by the positive allusions to Whitefield and Wesley in Milton and Jerusalem (8).
Roger Lüdeke, Zur Schreibkunst von William Blake: Ästhetische Souveränität und politische Imagination
Authors: Erle Sibylle
Published: December 2022

In contrast to William Blake’s popular twentieth-century reception, which was dominated by his fans’ fascination with his visionary art and lyrical poetry, a substantial proportion of his recent academic audience has carved a poet-persona whose religious diction is closely linked to his opinions about the American and French Revolutions, as well as the 1790s, the decade of political repression in Britain. The main achievements of these academic interpretations, based on archival work and derived from historical contextualization, Lüdeke finds to be summarized in Jackie DiSalvo’s introduction to Blake, Politics, and History (1998). In his own nearly fifty-page introduction Lüdeke frequently returns to Jon Mee’s chapter in that collection. What starts off as a narrowly focused assessment of Blake studies and historicism soon expands into a complex discussion of the “defining tension between the religious and the political” (“konstitutive Spannungsverhältnis zwischen Religiösem und Politischem”) (9). Taking his starting points from Eric J. Hobsbawm and Jürgen Habermas, as well as Mee and Saree Makdisi, Lüdeke summarizes the outcomes of the research on the public sphere and its self-declared prophets, enthusiasts, antinomians, millenarians, and dissenters. Critics, he asserts, now perceive religion as a mode of compensation, affecting, in turn, the interiorization and aestheticization of art (12-13). Lüdeke wants to reconsider certain investigative leads and to reexamine the relationship between the political and the religious by focusing on radical and protestant discursive practices and textual strategies (14).
A Newly Discovered Copy of Blake’s Adam and Eve Asleep
Authors: Viscomi Joseph
Published: December 2022

When I first saw Adam and Eve Asleep, I was excited, thinking it may be evidence that the Linnell Paradise Lost designs were not a selection of just three designs but were once part of a full set of twelve, like the Thomas and Butts sets of 1807 and 1808, and that other designs from the set were waiting to be discovered. But when I looked more closely at the drawing and coloring, that idea and the idea that this design was by Blake began to fade. The nose, chin, lips, and eyes of the angel in profile looked wrong, wrong enough for me to enlarge and enhance the high-resolution image and compare the copy to its model in the Butts series. Comparing the foliage at the bottom of the design against its model reveals a similar hesitancy and indeterminacy not present in the model and in Blake’s late finished designs in general. The copyist did not understand the underlying structure of the foliage as plants or design any more than he did the finer features of the face.
Rosenbach and Blake
Authors: Bentley, Jr. G. E.
Published: December 2022

The person who dealt with more copies of Blake’s works than any other was Dr. A. S. W. Rosenbach (1876–1952), the famously successful dealer in Philadelphia and New York. He handled forty-two of Blake’s works in illuminated printing, eighty-seven drawings and paintings, “The Everlasting Gospel,” and the Pickering [Ballads] Manuscript, a large proportion of them from W. A. White. Most of those he handled went to Lessing J. Rosenwald (1891–1979).
Robert N. Essick, ed., William Blake. Songs of Innocence and of Experience
Authors: Gourlay Alexander S.
Published: December 2022

This book is an intellectual and critical gem that is also a great bargain. As an edition of a classic collection of challenging poems for use by serious but not necessarily expert readers, it is as successful as Stephen Booth’s classic facsimile and critical edition of Shakespeare’s Sonnets (Yale, 1977). Essick provides a foundation of perspicacious historicist/materialist contextual and critical analysis, drawing upon (without getting bogged down in) more than two centuries of Blake scholarship; the critical apparatus as a whole promotes a sophisticated appreciation of the contrary states of the human soul while gently steering modern readers, innocent and experienced, around the accumulated obstacles to subtle understanding of these poems and their illuminations.

Research on the relationship between spiritual intelligence and the mechanical solidarity of religious people (Case Study inNgawen Village, Cluwak District, Pati Regency, Central Java) is important research for the development of religious life inIndonesia. That is because, the appreciation of religion is something that accompanies religious life, but at the same timereligion also requires a strong bond of brotherhood. This study tries to look at the relationship between the individual andsocial dimensions of religious life. This study discusses the discussion of spiritual intelligence with the mechanicalsolidarity of Buddhists in Karangsari Village, Kec. Cluwak, Kab. Starch. Obtained from ex-post facto research because thefacts or symptoms that were collected already existed before the respondent or symptoms appeared without the presence ofconsultation. The data in this study were obtained based on respondents' answers in the questionnaire research. Datacollected includes ordinal data. This data refers to the resolution or classification of responses to instrument approval. Thisresearch proves that there is no difference between Spiritual Intelligence and Mechanical Solidarity. Based on dataprocessing, the results of the relationship between the two variables are positive, but in the low category. The lowrelationship between Spiritual Intelligence and Mechanical Solidarity can be interpreted as Buddhist social piety, not fullyrelying on the internal values of Buddhism. However, awareness can be determined by values and norms that are giventogether. The facts that occur in the field can show a phenomenon that is getting stronger and closer, the social ties ofsociety, the deeper the religious feelings and the feelings about the sacred things that accompany each manifestation aregathered.

Wyniki badań petrograficznych ceramiki
Authors: Gunia Piotr
Published: December 2022

Microscopic petrographic analysis was carried out on 18 samples of pottery from Pasym. Most of the slides were prepared from sherds featuring both rim and upper body. The petrographic characteristics of the pottery were described in keeping with generally accepted standards. Microscopic observations were used to determine details of the structure, texture, colour and fabric matrix of the sherds, and to identify any non-plastic inclusions. The mineral composition of the temper, forms and distribution of vitreous matter, types of organic residues and other additions to the ceramic body were also assessed. Pottery varieties were identified based on predominant colour and its variability, as well as on the structure and texture of the sherd fabric seen in cross-section. The quantity and mineral composition of temper was also taken into consideration. Two principal varieties of pottery, differing in structural and textural characteristics, were identified based on the results from the 18 analysed ceramic samples. The first group comprises sherds with relatively few non-plastic inclusions in the fabric matrix and a predominance of single fragments of angular or poorly rounded, coarse-grained crushed stone. The pottery mostly has a brown or reddish-brown fracture surface, and is sometimes slipped on both sides or coated with a thin wash of paint on the outside. This type of pottery was usually fired at around 600–650°C in an oxidising atmosphere. The only exception was a richly decorated sherd (Pas-7) with no coarse inclusions, probably made of levigated clay fired in reducing conditions. The second petrographic group consists of sherds with a brown or black fracture surface, some of them slipped or painted on the outside. All of these sherds have fabrics which are densely packed with fine, sometimes poorly sorted and variously rounded grains of temper. Some of the analysed pottery had traces of slip on either one or both sides made from a paler reddish, levigated clay featuring a predominance of silt-sized particles. These vessels were fired in an oxidising environment, or occasionally in a reducing atmosphere, at around 550–650°C. Most of the analysed pottery was made of poorly plastic, but iron-rich clay, either weathered or fluvioglacial, and of mixed provenance. A small proportion of vessels was made from probably locally sourced glacial till which had better plasticity.
