Abstract. We report on the sub-basin variability in particulate organic carbon (POC)
remineralization in the western and central Mediterranean Sea in late spring
during the PEACETIME (ProcEss studies at the
Air–sEa Interface after dust deposition in the MEditerranean sea) cruise. POC remineralization rates were estimated using
the excess biogenic particulate barium (Baxs) inventories in the
mesopelagic layers (100–1000 m depth) and compared with prokaryotic
heterotrophic production (PHP). Baxs-based mesopelagic remineralization
rates (MRs) ranged from 25±2 to 306±70 mgCm-2d-1.
MRs were larger in the Algero-Provençal (ALG) Basin than in the
Tyrrhenian (TYR) and Ionian (ION) basins. Our Baxs inventories and
integrated PHP data also indicated that significant mesopelagic
remineralization occurred down to 1000 m depth in the ALG Basin in contrast
to the ION and TYR basins, where remineralization was mainly located above
500 m depth. We propose that the higher and deeper MRs in the ALG
Basin were sustained by an additional particle export event driven by deep
convection. The TYR Basin (in contrast to the ALG and ION basins) presented
the impact of a previous dust event, as reflected by our particulate Al water
column concentrations. The ION and TYR basins showed small-scale
heterogeneity in remineralization processes, reflected by our Baxs
inventories and integrated PHP data at the Tyrr long-duration station.
This heterogeneity was linked to the mosaic of blooming and non-blooming
patches reported in this area during the cruise. In contrast to the western
Mediterranean Sea (ALG Basin), the central Mediterranean Sea (ION and TYR
basins) showed lower remineralization rates restricted to the upper
mesopelagic layer during the late spring PEACETIME cruise.
Geonews: Timely Geoscience Educational YouTube Videos about Recent Geologic Events
Authors: Wang Ning , Clowdus Zachary , Sealander Alessandra , Stern Robert
Published: November 2021

Abstract. Geologic events like volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and tsunamis hurt nearby people and stimulate the curiosity of people farther away, thus providing opportunities to engage the public to be more interested to learn about Earth processes. Geoscientists are increasingly using social media such as Twitter to explain to the public what caused these events and videos provide an especially vivid way to reach this audience. However, it is still unclear how to create, evaluate and disseminate videos on timely natural events to communicate geosciences. To address this challenge and opportunity, we analyzed the impact of 33 short geoscience educational (GeoEd) videos that we created and posted on YouTube between 2018 and 2020. These include 12 videos on timely geologic events (Geonews videos) and 21 videos that are not specially about timely geologic topics (General GeoEd videos), all of which were similarly advertised and have similar lengths. By comparing the performance of the Geonews and General GeoEd videos, we conclude: 1) The YouTube audience is consistently interested in Geonews videos but some General GeoEd videos are more popular; 2) Geonews videos may trigger more meaningful dialogues than General GeoEd videos, especially for local audiences; and 3) The ‘golden period’ of Geonews videos engaging YouTube audiences is within 3 weeks after posting. 4) The Geonews audience tends to be younger and more diverse than the General GeoEd video audience. 5) Creating Geonews videos can be a promising strategy for geoscientists to engage public audiences on YouTube-like social media.

Abstract. The Main Ethiopian Rift (MER), where active continental
rifting creates specific conditions for landslide formation, provides a
prospective area to study the influence of tectonics, lithology,
geomorphology, and climate on landslide formation. New structural and
morphotectonic data from central Main Ethiopian Rift (CMER) and southern Main Ethiopian Rift (SMER) support a model of progressive change in the regional extension from NW–SE to the recent E(ENE)–W(WSW)
direction, driven by the African and Somali plates moving apart with the
presumed contribution of the NNE(NE)–SSW(SW) extension controlled by the
Arabian Plate. The formation and polyphase reactivation of faults in the
changing regional stress field significantly increase the rocks' tectonic
anisotropy, slope, and the risk of slope instabilities forming. According to geostatistical analysis, areas prone to landslides in the
central and southern MER occur on steep slopes, almost exclusively formed on active normal fault escarpments. Landslide areas are also influenced by
higher annual precipitation, precipitation seasonality, vegetation density,
and seasonality. Deforestation is also an important predisposition because
rockfalls and landslide areas typically occur on areas with bushland,
grassland, and cultivated land cover. A detailed study on active rift escarpment in the Arba Minch area revealed
similar affinities as in a regional study of MER. Landslides here are
closely associated with steep, mostly faulted, slopes and a higher density
of vegetation. Active faulting forming steep slopes is the main
predisposition for landslide formation here, and the main triggers are
seismicity and seasonal precipitation. The Mejo area situated on the
uplifting Ethiopian Plateau 60 km east of the Great Rift Valley shows that
landslide occurrence is strongly influenced by steep erosional slopes and a
deeply weathered Proterozoic metamorphic basement. Regional uplift,
accompanied by rapid headward erosion forming steep slopes together with
unfavourable lithological conditions, is the main predisposition for
landslide formation; the main triggers here are intense precipitation and
higher precipitation seasonality.
Erosion fluviale et mutations morphométriques du drainage dans le secteur aval du barrage de Lagdo (Bassin de la Bénoué, Nord-Cameroun)
Authors: Mbele Abbo Félix
Published: November 2021

Abstract. La présente étude s'intéresse à la dynamique du drainage de
la Bénoué, par comparaison de deux situations à savoir, celles
d'avant et après implantation d'un barrage à Lagdo (1975–2016). En
effet, jusqu'en 1983, aucun barrage n'existait sur la Bénoué. La
mise en place de cet ouvrage a non seulement modifié l'équilibre
environnemental du bassin versant, mais actionné des dynamiques humaines
et physiques importantes. On y note une modification des modules
hydrologiques, tandis que les processus morphogéniques se sont
accélérés dans le secteur aval, et se révèlent à
travers des glissements fréquents de berges. Il est question dans ce
travail de caractériser l'évolution du drainage par l'entremise des
indicateurs morphométriques et d'en évaluer les impacts ou enjeux.
Pour ce faire, des observations de terrain ont été faites, des
enquêtes/entretiens ont été menés auprès des riverains,
et une base de données géoreférencées a été
constituée sous Qgis 2.6.1 afin de faciliter les analyses diachroniques
du drainage. Il en ressort que les activités morphogéniques ayant
cours dans ce secteur sont de plus en plus actives. Il y a également une
revalorisation positive des caractéristiques actuelles des méandres,
comparativement à la situation de 1975. Les longueurs d'onde et les
amplitudes des méandres n'ont connus que de légères
modifications, tandis que la largeur moyenne des sections est
régulièrement passée de 121,77 m en 1975 à 169,08 m en 2016.
En comparant les différentes sections définis dans le cadre de cette
analyse, on se rend également compte que les largeurs érodées
plein bord s'étendent en moyenne de 1,47 m an−1, alors que les
pertes en terre par section sont de l'ordre de 0,63 ha an−1.
Globalement, les impacts évalués ou ressentis s'avèrent non
négligeables d'où les propositions faites afin de juguler
l'aléa.
Investigating links between rainfall variations in the Ogooué River basin and ENSO in the Pacific Ocean over the period 1940–1999

Published: November 2021

Abstract. This paper investigates links between rainfall variability in the
Ogooué River Basin (ORB) and El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) in
the Pacific Ocean. Recent hydroclimatology studies of the ORB and
surrounding areas resulting in contrasting conclusions about links between
rainfall variability and ENSO. Thus, to make the issue clearer, this study
investigates the links between ENSO and rainfall in the ORB over the period
1940–1999. The principal component analysis of monthly rainfall in the ORB
was done. The temporal mode of the first component corresponds to the
interannual variations of rainfall on the ORB. Also, the pattern of the
spatial mode of the first component shows that the ORB is a homogeneous
hydroclimatic zone. However, no leading mode is significantly correlated to
the ENSO index. A cross-wavelet analysis of the time series of basin-scale
rainfall and the ENSO index was therefore carried out. The result is a set
of periodogram structures corresponding to some ENSO episodes recorded over
the study period. And wavelet coherence analysis of both time series
confirms that there are significant links between ENSO and rainfall in the
ORB.
Caractérisation hydro-climatique, analyse comparative des termes du bilan hydrologique du bassin versant d'Ambouli (République de Djibouti)

Published: November 2021

Abstract. Le bassin versant exoréique de l'Oued Ambouli
situé au sud-est de la République de Djibouti, s'étend sur plus
de 794 km2 soit 3.5 % de la surface du pays. Il est le plus grand
bassin versant du district de Djibouti. Cet oued est soumis à des crues
rares et brèves qui causent de lourds dégâts en vies humaines et
économiques, accentués par l'expansion urbaine de la ville de
Djibouti. Cette étude vise à calculer les différentes
composantes du bilan hydrologique. Sur la période 2008–2013, ce bassin a
reçu une pluie moyenne annuelle de 93.6 mm; l'évapotranspiration
réelle (ETR) sur le bassin versant est estimée à 79.6 mm/an soit
85 % des précipitations moyennes annuelles; l'écoulement total
approche un volume de 6.5 × 106 m3/an, soit 3.7 mm/an; par
déduction, selon la formule du bilan hydrologique, l'infiltration totale
est estimée à 10.3 mm/an. Ces résultats comparés aux
résultats obtenus antérieurement, apparaissent comme très
différents (principalement une baisse des valeurs). Les données
disponibles sont très fragmentées dans le temps et ne couvrent que
des périodes trop courtes pour pouvoir prétendre fournir des valeurs
de référence pour un bilan hydrologique et permettre un suivi
évolutif de celui-ci.

Published: November 2021

Abstract. The impact of climate change on precipitation and water availability is of
major concern for policy makers in the Mono Basin of West Africa, whose
economy mainly depends on rainfed agriculture and hydropower generation. The
objective of this study is to project rainfall, flows and evapotranspiration
(ET) in the future period and understand their changes across Mono River
Basin. Observed data were considered for the historical period 1980–2010,
and a Multi-model ensemble for future projections data of eight selected
Regional Climate Models under RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5 over the periods 2011–2100
was used. The GR4J model was used to simulate daily flows of the Mono
watershed. The ensemble mean shows a decrease and increase streamflows
between −54 % and 42 %, −58 % and 31 %​​​​​​​ under the RCP4.5, RCP8.5 scenario,
respectively. The greatest decreases of high flows is projected to occur in
the near term under RCP8.5, whereas the greatest decrease of low flows is
projected to occur in the long term under the same RCP. For the rainfall and
ET, the both scenarios (RCP4.5 and RCP8.5) predict an increase of ET while
the rainfall will decrease. The results of this study of would be very
useful in the choice of management and adaptation policies for water
resources management.

Abstract. The objective of this study is to model the Mono River basin at
Athiémé using stochastic approach for a better knowledge of the
hydrological functioning of the basin. Data used in this study consist of
observed precipitation and temperature data over the period 1961–2012 and
future projection data from two regional climate models (HIRHAM5 and REMO)
over the period 2016–2100. Simulation of the river discharge was made using
ModHyPMA, GR4J, HBV, AWBM models and uncertainties analysis were performed
by a stochastic approach. Results showed that the different rainfall-runoff
models used reproduce well the observed hydrographs. However, the
multi-modelling approach has improved the performance of the individual
models. The Hermite orthogonal polynomials of order 4 are well suited for
the prediction of flood flows in this basin. This stochastic modeling
approach allowed us to deduce that extreme events would therefore increase
in the middle of the century under RCP8.5 scenario and towards the end of
the century under RCP4.5 scenario.

Published: November 2021

Abstract. The numerical modeling of spatio-temporal evolution of
lagoon has an important role in predicting the behaviour of these systems.
Knowing the concentration of the pollutant field distribution in time and
space contributes significantly to the prediction of exceptional phenomena.
The purpose of this paper is to simulate the transport and dispersion of
salt at Nokoue Lake. To this end, the 2D hydrodynamic model SMS (Surface
Water Modeling System) has been used. Results showed that in flood period
the freshwater inflows produce a net seaward transport, while in low water
period the tides lead to periodic seaward and landward transport. The
developed numerical model is useful for predicting pollutants transport in
this system, for water quality management of the Nokoue Lake, and therefore,
fight against eutrophication.

Abstract. Le comblement et l'eutrophisation des retenues d'eau constituent des
contraintes majeures pour les usages qu'en font les populations riveraines.
L'étude bathymétrique a révélé une diminution moyenne de
0,116 m/an de la profondeur sur sept (07) ans. Ce niveau élevé de
comblement s'explique par l'érosion des terres due à la
dégradation du couvert végétal et le surpâturage. Les

spectrophotomètre DR 5000 par la Norme AFNOR T90-117 ont permis
d'évaluer le risque d'eutrophisation par la grille de diagnostic
d'Ifremer (2000). Les eaux sont dans un état eutrophe. Le comblement et
l'eutrophisation de la retenue constituent des menaces potentielles à
court terme pour la pisciculture, l'irrigation et la consommation tandis que
la disponibilité quantitative de la ressource est menacée à
moyen terme. Des relevés bathymétriques périodiques et des

The Best Thresholds for Rapid Identification of Episodic and Chronic Homeless Shelter Use
Authors: Messier Geoffrey , Tutty Leslie , John Caleb
Published: November 2021

This paper explores how to best identify clients for housing services based on their homeless shelter access patterns. We utilize the number of shelter stays and episodes of shelter use for a client within a specified time window. Thresholds are then applied to these values to determine if that individual is a good candidate for housing support. Using new housing referral impact metrics, we explore a range of threshold and time window values to determine which combination both maximizes impact and identifies good candidates for housing as soon as possible. New insights are also provided regarding the characteristics of the “under-the-radar” client group who are typically not identified for housing support.
Mulheres negras em movimento: criações individuais e coletivas por vidas com dignidade e direitos
Authors: Ribeiro Matilde
Published: November 2021

Este artigo contém três eixos: a determinação pela vida digna; 33 anos de organização nacional e internacional; e a criatividade a serviço da construção acadêmica do conhecimento. A organização é histórica, e, na busca de ampliação da plataforma feminista, antirracista e anti-homofóbica, as mulheres negras teceram inúmeras críticas quanto à invisibilidade de sua ação política nos movimentos sociais (em especial o negro e o feminista) e na sociedade. A contestação mais direta refere-se à maneira secundarizada no tratamento de sua opressão e organização. Desse modo, seja por meio dos discursos políticos, dos comportamentos e/ou da produção teórica, as mulheres negras apareceram historicamente como sujeitos implícitos. No período contemporâneo, motivadas pela busca de superação do racismo, sexismo, LGBTfobia e desigualdades sociais, econômicas e sociais, as mulheres negras têm tido êxito em seu processo organizativo com o ativismo político, social e acadêmico.

Toma Akvinski i Augustin Kažotić
Authors: Gavrić Anto
Published: November 2021

Proučavanje prve generacije učenika Tome Akvinskoga ostalo je još uvijek dosta neistraženo. Studije o prvim Tominim učenicima od posebnog su značenja za poznavanje načina kako se prenosila i u kojim sve područjima misao Zajedničkog naučitelja (Doctor communis). Stoga i ovaj članak ulazi u to područje istraživanja. Članak najprije prikazuje kako se stoljećima u raznim izvorima isticalo da je Augustin Kažotić bio izravni učenik Tome Akvinskoga te da je pohađao njegova predavanja za vrijeme studija na sveučilištu u Parizu. Zatim doktrinarno analizira kontekst Augustinova boravka na studiju u Pariz pokazujući da je Tomin nauk još uvijek bio živo prisutan u akademskim krugovima. Autor nadalje analizira kako je dominikanski red imao važnu ulogu u porastu doktrinarnog utjecaja Tome Akvinskog te pokazuje da je u tome i Augustin Kažotić dao svoj doprinos. Stoga autor argumentirano analizira Kažotićevu povezanost s Tomom Akvinskim na nekoliko doktrinarnih područja. Na kraju analizira i doprinos Augustina Kažotića kanonizaciji Tome Akvinskog. Članak potvrđuje kako je život i djelo Augustina Kažotića značajno svjedočanstvo za poznavanje prenošenja misli sv. Tome Akvinskoga, posebice u razdoblju prije same njegove kanonizacije.

Authors: Mumtaz Wardah , Rehman Umar , Mahmood Arshid , Nauman Fazal-E- , Shaikh Kausar , Saeed Zahid
Published: November 2021

Background: The most common post-thyroidectomy complication is hypocalcaemia. It could be permanent or transitory. Permanent hypocalcaemia has a prevalence of 0-13% and transient hypocalcaemia has a prevalence of 1-6%. Aim: The study objective was to ascertain the prevalence of postoperative hypocalcaemia in patients following total thyroidectomy. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out on 84 thyroid patients who underwent total thyroidectomy in the surgical department of HBS General Hospital, Islamabad for period of nine months during from September 2020 to May 2021. Patients within the age range of 15-69 years and had indicated thyroidectomy caused by carcinoma thyroid, multinodular goiter, and recurrent goiter were enrolled. Inform consent was obtained from each participant. Ethical approval was taken from the institutional ethical committee. Thyroid profile and serum calcium were done for a routine investigation. Serum calcium levels were measured 24 hours, 48 hours, and 7 days after total thyroidectomy. Signs and symptoms in hypocalcaemia patients were recorded on a proforma. Patients with hypocalcaemia were followed for six months. SPSS version 20 was used for data analysis. Results: The mean age of the patients was 46.7 ± 4.6 years with an age range of 16 to 69 years. Of the total 84 patients, 38 (45.2%) underwent total thyroidectomy and 46 (54.8%) underwent a complete thyroidectomy. The prevalence of male and female patients was 22 (26.2%) and 62 (73.8%) respectively. Malignant and benign were present in 71 (84.5%) and 13 (15.5%) respectively. Of the total 84 patients, 68 (81%) developed hypocalcaemia. Out of 68 hypocalcaemia patients, 29 (42.6%) and 39 (57.4%) were from the benign and malignant groups respectively. Conclusion: Postoperatively hypocalcaemia was prevalent following thyroidectomy. Malignant patients (84.5%) were more prevalent compared to benign patients (15.5%) after total thyroidectomy. Careful surgical procedures, parathyroid gland vascularity preservation, and identification are critical in preventing hypocalcaemia following total thyroidectomy.

Published: November 2021

Prior research shows that rural entrepreneurship has its own distinct elements and deserves additional attention within the research community. The frameworks and methodologies from studies focused on high-growth and technology-based entrepreneurship are often used to explore rural entrepreneurial activities. This incongruence limits our understanding of the true impact entrepreneurship can have on rural communities. The articles in this special issue help advance our knowledge of rural entrepreneurship as a distinct field of study, and add to our understanding of its impact in the rural context. Additional research avenues are suggested.
Rural Entrepreneurship Success Factors: An Empirical Investigation in an Emerging Market
Authors: Gyimah Prince , Lussier Robert N.
Published: November 2021

Small businesses in rural communities play a key role in achieving global sustainable economic development because they are the driving force of poverty reduction, job creation, resiliency, and economic development. This study examines the factors that drive the success or failure of small businesses in rural communities in an emerging market. The methodology is survey interview research using a logistic regression model to test the Lussier success vs failure prediction model with a sample of 230 businesses (successful n = 120, failed n = 110) from the rural communities in an emerging market. This study supports the Lussier model validity (p < 0.01) with a high overall accuracy of 71% in predicting a venture as successful or failed. Capital, industry experience, staffing, and marketing skills are the most significant (t-values < .05) factors that distinguish successful from failed rural businesses in an emerging market. The findings can help future, and nascent rural entrepreneurs avoid failure and successfully contribute to economic development. Implications for government agencies, public regulatory bodies, financial institutions, investors, suppliers, educators, professional institutions, and society, as well as limitations and future research, are presented. This study also contributes to the international validity of the Lussier model that can be used in both advanced and developing economies, and it contributes to the development of theory.
Lifestyle Entrepreneurship and Innovation in Rural Areas: The Case of Tourism Entrepreneurs
Authors: Dias Álvaro , Silva Graça Miranda
Published: November 2021

Lifestyle entrepreneurs play an important role in innovation and sustainability in rural destinations. Their competitiveness depends largely on how they explore their link to the place and generate innovation. To analyze the relationship between the link to the place and innovation, this article uses survey data from a sample of 221 rural lifestyle entrepreneurs. Using PLS-SEM modeling, the results indicate that place familiarity and relational capital positively influence innovation. Furthermore, place familiarity reveals as an important factor for improving relational capital. In its turn, the degree of relational capital contributes positively to the small firm’s knowledge absorption. The results also reveal that, although there is no direct relation between knowledge absorption and innovation, relational capital mediates the relationship between place familiarity and innovation and that there is an indirect relationship between relational capital and innovation, through the mediating effect of knowledge absorption. These results provides important elements for rural tourism destination decision making on innovation and competitiveness.
Fostering Entrepreneurial Ecosystems and the Choice of Location for New Companies in Rural Areas – the Case of Germany
Authors: Liedtke Matthias , Asghari Reza , Spengler Thomas
Published: November 2021

Startup ecosystems have become a popular field of research in recent years, not only for researchers but also for regional policy makers. Contemporary research on startup ecosystems generally focuses on urban areas and hubs such as Silicon Valley, Berlin, or Tel Aviv. However, little is known about startup ecosystems in rural areas. To fill this research gap, the research objective of this paper is to analyse disparities between entrepreneurial ecosystems in urban and rural areas in general and specifically in Germany. The major aim of this study is to examine the importance and development of startups in urban and rural areas and to identify challenges and opportunities for rural areas in order to set the right impulses. The research focus of this paper is to discuss which stakeholders and determinants affect the founders in their location decision. Using German Startup Monitor (DSM) 2019 data, it is found that the lack of network ties and opportunities to collaborate with established corporations; availability of qualified personnel; access to venture capital; an investment and economic policy initiative appear to be obstacles that prevent founders from starting up in rural areas in Germany. The results also confirm the findings of other studies that entrepreneurship tends to be an urban event. This study also provides suggestions for future research.

One photograph, showing a man falling head first as though performing a dive, appeared in hundreds of newspapers the day after the tragedy but soon became a taboo, never to be published again. Nevertheless, reverberations of its traumatizing effect can be felt in a number of works of art. By applying Roland Barthes’s terminology as an analytic tool, my purpose is to reveal inherent ambiguities in the photograph’s iconography that render its “verticality and symmetry” a palimpsest of interlacing significations. I will then proceed to examine artistic responses to this silenced aspect of the trauma of 9/11 in Kerry Skarbakka’s photographic performances, Don DeLillo’s novel Falling Man, and James Marsh’s documentary Man on Wire.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s Willing Belief in the Logos of Shakespeare and “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner”
Authors: Kállay Géza
Published: November 2021

The following piece is the last we have of Professor Géza Kállay. He could not revise, let alone edit his paper before its publication. Although he had expressed his doubts concerning its “merits” after the conference, and considered it rather a “curiosity”—a curious digression from his ongoing research on Shakespeare and philosophy—the editors wish to pay homage to him by conveying his words as faithfully as they can to transmit, however imperfectly, what Géza calls, in his paper, “voiced animation.” That is, the “heated passion” with which he—like Coleridge or the actors impersonating Shakespeare’s characters—used to “animate the ‘cold,’ arbitrary and con- ventional symbols [...] of everyday language” in lecture theatres, in seminar and conference rooms. Géza had a “strange power of speech” that used to mesmerise his students and colleagues alike.
Beyond Foreignisation and Domestication
Authors: Minier Márta
Published: November 2021

This article looks at the Harry Potter series in Hungarian translation, with some reference to translation in a broader sense, including parody. All the five translations of J. K. Rowling's series were prepared by Boldizsár Tamás Tóth, who had previously specialised in film translation. This present article intends to demonstrate that the translator neither unquestionably domesticates, nor foreignises the texts. Tóth respects the otherness of the 'original,' and, in the main, does not relocate the wizard world in Hungary. His translations intend to reconceive the foreignness the translator may have encountered in his reading of the 'originals.' On the understanding that creative and academic work are not so clearly distinguishable under the aegis of the postmodern, the article will also point out in what respects the translation strategies could be more daring or subversive. The analysis includes comparisons of names of persons, places, magicians' objects, school subjects, and so on, in the 'original' and the Hungarian translation.

'Heaven be praised for it, the problem of space remained'
Authors: Moise Gabriella
Published: November 2021

The painterly dilemma of translating reality into the language of aesthetics surfaces with a renewed difficulty for Lily Briscoe the painter of Virginia Woolf’s To the Lighthouse. The novelty of her challenge rests in her encounter of post-Cartesian (architectural, corporeal, pictorial) spaces, above all the “hideously difficult white space” of her canvas along with the emptiness of domestic spaces left behind by the death of her primary subject, Mrs. Ramsay. This paper explores Lily’s Cézannesque formalism, which she accomplishes through establishing a phenomenological relationship with things, bodies, and spaces. The painter familiarizes herself primordially and synaesthetically with her surrounding reality in a Merleau-Pontian fashion, defying the hegemony of cognition, language, and vision. Her body becomes the locus of the chiasmic node of the visual and the tactile, she realizes her own embeddedness and homogeneous oneness with the world and transposes this relationship, that is, her vision, onto the canvas.

George Szirtes's Meetings with 'Austerlitz'
Authors: Sears John
Published: November 2021

This essay addresses two recent long poems by Hungarian-born English poet George Szirtes ("Backwaters: Norfolk Fields" and "Meeting Austerlitz") to analyse their constructions of the literary friendship between Szirtes and his fellow writer, German-born W. G. Sebald. The poems are read through critical approaches informed by Blanchot, Derrida, and others, and through their connections with key precursor texts, to examine the complex interconnections they explore between themes of history and tradition, geography and place, text and canon and self and other. The essay argues that the two poems engage with a series of figures that ultimately offer literature itself as a shared space in which each writer finds a territory to substitute for that of home, while yet residing in a condition of exotic, displaced migrancy; the poems focus on language, writing and specific aspects of the English literary tradition in order to establish these spaces as grounds for a shared experience that transcends the irreducible singularity of the specific histories which each writer has, in radically different ways, encountered.

Derrida's Specter, Abraham's Phantom
Authors: Dragon Zoltán
Published: November 2021

The aim of this paper is to trace the haunting effect of two texts by Jacques Derrida and disclose the cause of that effect. First I discuss J. Hillis Miller's bafflement and subsequent misreading of Derrida's rather enigmatic text, "Fors," and then read it in tandem with a similarly haunting-haunted text, Specters of Marx. This forms the basis of my endeavor to disclose the silenced traces that lead to the work of Nicolas Abraham, an old friend of Derrida's, whose name is simply foreclosed from the French philosopher's oeuvre even though he wrote two prefaces to Abraham's works (one of them being "Fors" - which curiously turns into an enigma for Miller). My aim, in other words, is to let the foreclosed trace speak and to see what it does to Derrida's deconstructionist project culminating in his later project of "hauntology."
“How can I describe my emotions at this catastrophe...?”
Authors: Erle Sibylle
Published: November 2021

This essay reiterates the importance of Captain Robert Walton in Shelley’s novel. Walton is the addressee of Frankenstein’s story and drawing attention to his presence helps with unravelling the complexity of the creation scene. The focus is on physiognomical creation, i.e. not only on Frankenstein’s body-making but also his aesthetic response to both the immobile and animated body. Though the Creature’s physical ugliness may be a matter of degree, Frankenstein contradicts himself in his description of its effects. He also appears to have expected that animation would not substantially have interfered with the anticipated reality of the animated Creature. But it does. Shelley, it has been argued, revised Adam Smith’s ideas about sympathy, suggesting that—if a person inspires terror compensatory sympathy can be achieved through narrative. Is Walton able to handle the monster because he knows it? The essay discusses the dynamic between the visual and the auditory in Frankenstein to argue that Shelley responds to Johann Caspar Lavater’s Essays on Physiognomy (1789–98).

The aim of the present research work was to formulate and evaluate colon targeted pellets of lornoxicam for the pain management of rheumatoid arthritis. The product and process parameters were optimized by screening methods. Pellets were prepared by extrusion spheronization method using microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) as spheronizing aid and ethyl cellulose (EC) as controlled release polymer, in different ratios. Based on the physical appearance, sphericity and % in vitro drug release, batch B17 containing EC: MCC (6:4) was optimized for core pellets. The site specificity was obtained by screening Eudragit FS30D and Eudragit S100 as coating polymers and the core pellets were coated with Eudragit S100. The batch C4 (6%) showed appropriate physical appearance and % in vitro drug release upto 24 h, indicating controlled release property. The pharmacodynamic studies performed on rat model indicated the anti-inflammatory activity of pellet formulation. Thus, it is concluded that the coated pellets can be a good candidate for site specific delivery of lornoxicam to colon by decreasing the gastric irritation, reducing dose frequency and improving patient compliance.

Estimating the Ratio of a Crisp Variable and a Neutrosophic Variable
Authors:   Universidad de La Habana La Habana , Cuba, Bouza-Herrera Carlos N. Bouza ,   Jammu and Kashmir Institute of mathematical sciences, India, Subzar Mir
Published: November 2021

The estimation of the ratio of two means is studied within the neutrosophic theory framework. The variable of interest Y is measured in a sample of units and the auxiliary variable X is obtainable for all units using records or predictions. They are correlated and the sample is selected using simple random sampling. The indeterminacy of the auxiliary variable is considered and is modeled as a neutrosophic variable. The bias and variance of the proposed estimator are derived.

Erlang Service Queueing Model with Neutrosophic Parameters
Authors:   Department of Mathematical Statistics, Faculty of Science, University of Aleppo, Aleppo, Syria, Zeina Mohamed Bisher
Published: November 2021

In this paper, we generalize the classical Erlang service queueing model, which has determined and crisp parameters to neutrosophic Erlang service queueing model which is more accurate because it opens the ability to deal with imprecise and incomplete knowledge of parameters. We have used the neutrosophic statistical interval method introduced by F. Smarandache to describe the parameters of the Erlang service queueing model and to find the neutrosophic performance measures.
