Authors: Rizal Saifur
Published: September 2019

The number of theories and models of leadership is a positive response from experts and scientists of various countries as a form of attention to the development and demands of the times. Likewise in the world of education, many leadership theories require educational institutions to be able to make changes in the framework of developing education towards progress in achieving a goal. Servant leadership is one of them, this leadership concept was taught and applied by Prophet Muhammad 14 centuries ago and was reiterated by Greenleaf several years ago. Servant leadership of a leadership theory that is widely applied in the world of Islamic education, especially Islamic boarding schools as the oldest Islamic educational institution in Indonesia. Including Nurul Jadid Islamic Boarding School in implementing trilogy values and the five santri awareness that are carried out continuously. In the process of implementing trilogy values and awareness of all santri in various management activities it is the main role in running a system. Servant leadership is a milestone in the success of the planting of these values to be able to be imbued by every santri to plunge into society.

The Significance of Neuroscience for Teaching English as Second Language (TESL) in the Digital Era
Authors: Po Lan Sham Dr. Diana
Published: September 2019

In formal TESL courses, Phonetics, Linguistics, Grammar as well as Psychology are taught. However, Neuroscience, the study of the brain, is necessary for ESL teachers for future professional development to meet the rapidly changing needs of the students at all levels in the digital era. Designing educational practices without knowledge of the brain is like “an automobile designer without a full understanding of engines” (Hart, 1999). Based on the neurological evidence of processing of English and Chinese words in the bilinguals’ brain, Sham (2002) found a new Dual Coding (Paivio, 1986) model for designing CSL teaching materials that best fits young learners’ limited capacity of the brain by reducing their cognitive load (Sweller et al., 1998). Although little research linking neuroscience and learning, Guy and Byrn (2013) emphasis on the understanding of neuroscience of working memory has positive effects on motivating students learning. Direct implication of neuroscience by language teachers has been found difficult, but interdisciplinary study of neuroscience, psychology and education is fruitful (Coch et al., 2007) and there has a great impact of neuroscience on teaching and learning including its implication for ESL college classroom (Sousa, 2010). This paper reviews current research of neuroscience, psychology integrating with ESL teaching and learning, and provides the adult students’ feedback of learning IELTS through the design related to neuropsychological findings in order to demonstrate how significant neuroscience is on TESL. In other words, understanding of neuroscience facilitates ESL teaching and benefits ESL teachers’ professional development in future (247 words).
Characterising Generational Reboot Strategies: Contemporary Hollywood, Transmedia Culture, and Spider-Man
Authors: Wakeﬁeld Bethany
Published: September 2019

Across this portfolio I will be analysing the generational reboot strategies of Spider-Man, using Toby Maguire’s, Andrew Garﬁeld’s and Tom Holland’s cinematic portrayals. Using an essay film to demonstrate the industrial reboot timeline of the character, I will explore the marketing of each Spider-Man instalment to pinpoint specific reboot strategies over time. Supported with audience research, I will be conducting one-to-one interviews and social media analysis to highlight the values of Spider-Man consumers, curating and designing posters to re-market the ﬁlms to their opinions. My conclusions will draw attention to the fact that the character of Peter Parker is actually not the unique selling point of any of the three franchises. Labelled as ‘ﬁdelity reboot’, ‘reactive reboot’ and ‘stan culture reboot’, these strategies highlight the generational way in which Spider-Man is constructed and consumed.

How Do You Write for What the Camera Can’t Do: Scriptwriting, Animation, & Transmedia Storytelling
Authors: Fagence Brian
Published: September 2019

How do we write for what the camera can’t do? How do we imagine and create for a medium which resists definition, is constantly evolving, and ‘is a protest against the stationary condition’? (Dragic et al, 1972: 9). How might a writer realise in the initiating instances of pre-production, what may become and potentially catalyse the illusion to life? This article considers how the means of writing may reveal insights into animation. It will particularly focus on an analysis of my own writing practice for animation for the animated short film Fallow. This story is one component of an ongoing practice-as-research transmedia storytelling project in development at the University of South Wales. This project was created to explore the specificities of a medium, transmedia storytelling and the relationships found between these through the practice of creative writing and scriptwriting. The project draws on aspects of Punch and Judy and the themes of identity, memory and perception which are explored within each story across each of the primary components of: Fallow (animation), The Pier (comic), Desistence (computer game), The Deep Machine (songs), Observance (journal), dell’ Arte (mixed media), Stain (music video) and The Quay (novel). This article discusses the process of writing for animation while considering a transmedia cosmology, and through examining the creation of the short film script Fallow what, for the writer, this may reveal about animation.
A Crisis Discipline: Broadening Understanding of Environmental Communication Through Theory and Practice
Authors: Penrhyn Jones Sara
Published: September 2019

In times of unprecedented environmental crisis, which disrupt traditional ways of conducting research and force us to rethink our purpose in the humanities, creative practitioners have the imperative and skillset to make an essential contribution. This article is a multi-perspectival exploration of environmental communication, which draws from concepts in many fields including media communication and the environmental humanities, but is grounded in creative practice as research. It offers insights and examples gained through the author’s direct participation in several types of environmental communication over ten years in different settings: from embedded production in alternative media to environmentally focused research projects that utilise creative and participatory action research methods. Environmental communication can include, but must also go beyond, ‘messaging’; there is a need to recognise the intrinsic value of processes such as creativity, dialogue and participation, and to work for more intangible successes such as enhanced networks and civic participation. This article also counteracts the frustrating tendency in academic culture to generalise art and media forms as part of the same vague entity, either in service of impact and engagement or as too ‘mysterious’ to deconstruct’. This can reveal a limiting disconnect with creative processes, and lead to weak design – and poor understanding – of research projects with creative components. Furthermore, paying attention to the specific processes and characteristics of various art and media forms is an essential part of a general vigilance in foregrounding issues of power, voice, and language in practice. This is not an argument that all research should be practice-based. Ideally, environmental communication could be practiced in a mutually enriching intellectual circuit with more traditional research, but to achieve this we need better acts of translation between theory and practice.
Affective Cinema: Experimenting with Feelings of Meaning
Authors: Prokopic Pavel
Published: September 2019

Affective Cinema is an AHRC-funded practice research project in film, informed by art cinema, experimental film traditions, film theory and philosophy. The outcomes of the research are films that combine aspects of cinematic style, nuances of performance and elements of chance. When all these attributes align in an unpredictable way, a feeling of meaning can be produced: a moment of cinema that is engaging and captivating without trying to tell a story or communicating something specific or intentional through the film. The research thereby aims to expand the potential of the cinematic form by producing experimental film structures in which this feeling of meaning can be identified, and by testing and developing methods that can lead to its emergence. The research also seeks to unite the practice and theory in a unique way – bringing the theory directly into the practice through a poetic voice-over. This submission to IJCMR represents a new version of Affective Cinema, one that was designed especially for the MediaWall at Bath Spa University, and which was exhibited between March 26–April 5 2019.
Affective Cinema is the 2019 winner of our MediaWall Award, our annual award in creative media research that aims to provide researchers with an opportunity to produce, curate and disseminate creative media-based research for a unique platform and audience.

The increases service life of gas hot water supply boilers with uniform heat supply along of the depth (width) of the combustion chamber for more than 40 years, by using of slot bottom burners was shown. While reducing nitrogen oxide emissions by using of dual-screens its can significantly increase the heat stress of the furnace, the volume of the furnace chamber and the temperature of the flue gases had left unchanged. The boilers with a capacity of 1–10 MW, with the above technical design solutions of the Gas Institute of the NAS of Ukraine, with a total heat capacity of more than 60 GW, continue to be operated and produce in Ukraine and the CIS countries. Installed boilers relatively nitrogen oxide emissions comply with new EU directive (EU) 2015/2193. The using of gas slot bottom burners can reduce nitrogen oxide emissions by approximately 15 % compared to the basic factory vortex types GMG or GMGB installed on many boilers was shown. A project for the reconstruction of boilers TVG-8 (TVG-8M) and KVG-7.56 with an increase in convective surface area by replacing the factory pipe 28x3 mm with 32x3 mm had developed. Using the improved slot bottom burners in particular equipped with calibrated nozzles for precise dosing of natural gas into the air was envisaged. As a result of a research test of the reconstructed boilers for 3-5 years these technical solutions could increase the energy efficiency of existing TVG and KVG boilers up to the current European level —94–95 at rated heat output was shown.

Authors: Karp I.M. , Pyanykh K.Ye.
Published: September 2019

Technological aspects of energy use of solid waste and their constituents and possibility of applying certain technologies in Ukraine are analyzed. Global trends in waste management technologies are identified. When organizing waste sorting, half of their energy potential can be used, which is estimated to be 1.5 billion m3 of natural gas equivalent in Ukraine. Share of food waste is close to 40 %. It is advisable to recycle them in biogas and biomethane mixtures with agricultural waste and energy plants. Biomethane production can be increased in several times. Electricity and heat production from biogas require government assistance in form of special tariffs. Biomethane is being used alongside natural gas in compressed and liquefied state as a motor fuel. Biogas complexes are used as balancing power of grids. The most common technology for utilizing the energy potential of municipal solid waste is incineration. Emissions systems for waste incineration plants have reached a level of perfection that allows them to be placed close to residential areas. Ref. 15, Fig. 6, Tab. 2.

Published: September 2019

The goal of the research is to assess the bioenergy efficiency of individual elements of sugar beet growing technology.
Materials and methods. The experiment was conducted at the Training and Production Center (BCC) of Bila Tserkva National Agrarian University in 2015-2017. All field experiments were conduct on the background of the main fertilizer. Under the basic cultivation of the soil 40 t/h of manure and N120P100K140 mineral fertilizers (a.s.) were introduced, on the basis of the planned yield of 70 t/ha. Norms of organic and mineral fertilizers were calculated taking into account the presence of nutrients in the soil and the coefficient of their removal by sugar beet.
The results of research. For the energy assessment of the elements of sugar beet cultivation technology in the central part of the Right-bank Forest-steppe zone of Ukraine, the cost of the total energy per unit area was determined by the technological maps, which were grouped and analyzed according to the following articles: seeds, fertilizers, fuels and lubricants, mechanized and manual work, and etc. The energy efficiency was determined by the energy efficiency ratio (Cee) – the ratio of the difference between the reproduced energy (energy consumption of the crop) and the consumed energy efficiency coefficient where the seed with the laboratory similarity was sown more than 95 % – (Cee = 5.51). When used for sowing seeds with a laboratory similarity of more than 91–95 %, the energy efficiency was slightly lower than that of sowing seeds more than 95 % and was 5.42.
With the increasing of plant density to harvesting from 80–90 to 101–110 thousand/ha, the energy output from the harvest increased from 829521 to 905520 MJ, but due to higher yields in variants where the plant density was 101-110 thousand/ha of energy, comparatively before control was higher. The energy efficiency ratio tended to decrease both for the use of hybrids and for the introduction of trace elements in the feed and amounted to 5.57–6.08.
Conclusions. It is proved that the developed agrotechnological measures for sugar beet cultivation in the line hybrid – the quality of the seeds – the plant stomatal density – fertilizers – the duration of the vegetation period, provide a high economic effect.
The formation of optimal sugar beet seeding on the area provided the highest yield of energy with the yield on variants with double application of microfertilizers in the non-root nutrition.
Key words: sugar beets, bioenergy efficiency, similarity of sown seeds, plant density, varietal composition, foliar nutrition, duration of vegetation period.
Analysis of yield and essential oils formation on clary sowings in the conditions of the south of Ukraine
Authors: Ushkarenko V. , Chaban V. , Chaban A.
Published: September 2019

The aim. The purpose of the article is to analyze the state of growing musk sage in Ukraine, the use of medicinal plant raw materials of guaranteed quality, as well as the principles and rules of good practice for the production of herbal medicines in accordance with GMP requirements, which highlight the requirements of standardization for medicinal plant raw materials and basic indicators of their quality.
Material and methods of research. The rates of mineral fertilizer application under the plow are determined and the basic tillage of the soil is carried out at a depth of 20–22 and 28–30 cm. The determination of the sowing dates of muscat sage, the width of its rows, the terms of harvesting raw materials has been determined. To maintain moisture in the soil during the responsible period of development of plants, we conducted research on the use of Radchenko harrow with breeding segments from the scythe of the unit ZhVN-6, which well weed out weeds from the soil and retained moisture in the soil at 75 % N.V.
Results of researches. The conducted researches have established that products of photosynthesis in Muscat sage are deposited in the root roots, in which up to 35 % of sugars are accumulated in the winter, mainly in the form of sucrose.
If during the passage of the first phase of tempering (October) in the rod root there are slight changes in the content of sucrose, then with a decrease in air temperature to minus 8–10 °C, there is a sharp increase in the content of sucrose. So, if in October in the root roots contained 16,55 sucrose, then in January – 28,19. In February, the amount of sucrose is reduced to 22.58. At this time, the content of monosaccharides falls to 1.40 versus 12.75 % – in October.
In the usual cultivation of the cultivator KRN-4.2, the acclimativeness of the weed plants was up to 40, when applied technology with Radchenko harrows up to 15 %.
Discussion. Yes, E. Tkacheva notes that this depends not only on the request of the companies-purchasers, but also on the term of storage of raw materials. The point is that the way of use of medicinal plants depends on the characteristics of biologically active substances that are contained in plants. The content of biologically active substances in plants and in their various organs is inconsistent, depending on the conditions of the place of cultivation, time of day, weather conditions and a number of other factors that are no less important.
Conclusions. Thus, for the first time in the conditions of irrigation of the south of Ukraine during the three years of sowing, agronomic techniques for growing muscat sultana, norms for introducing mineral fertilizers for basic tillage, plowing depths, seedlings, and their aftermath to form the phenological phases of plant development were studied at different years of life on the yield of raw materials, and the content of essential oil in it.
Key words: Muscat sage, depth of plowing, dates of sowing, fertilization, row spacing, harvesting terms.

Authors: Ermantraut E. , Stefaniuk V.
Published: September 2019

The necessity of growing stevia in the Forest-Steppe and the Ukrainian Steppe has been theoretically substantiated and practically proved. Breeding methods and basic elements of stevia growing technology are developed on the basis of the plant biological characteristics, its adaptive potential and varieties analysis.
Research results. The recommended technology has ensured the maximum implementation of the biological potential of stevia plants, which is manifested in more intensive growth and development of plants, significantly increased the yield of green mass and dry leaves compared with the control, respectively, by 6.2 and 1.1 t/ha.
In order to obtain stevia dry leaves yield at the level of 3.5–4.0 t/ha it is recommended to sow the new generation varieties of domestic breeding: Halyna, Maryna, Kateryna; stevia propagation method was proposed (Patent No. 119472, 2017). Over the years of testing, the annual economic effect amounted to 585.1 thousand UAH.
Conclusions. 1. The theoretical basis of the recommended stevia cultivation technology is the determination of the patterns of leaf mass formation, photosynthetic potential and the net productivity of photosynthesis depending on the varietal composition of the elements of growing technology and weather conditions of the growing season.
2. To get a yield of stevia dry leaves at the level of 3.5–4.0 t/ha it is recommended:
- to grow stevia in the regions where the annual amount of precipitation year is 460–560 mm, including 322-460 mm for the vegetation period, the moisture content in 100 cm soil layer – 150–180 mm, the amount of temperature during the period of active vegetation – 2450–2800 °C, STC – 0.8-1.3;
- to sow varieties of domestic breeding: Berehynya, Slavutych, Halyna, Maryna, Kateryna.
3. Growing stevia by seedlings method should be carried out on May 20–30 in a 70x16 cm pattern.

An experiment was carried out at the Agronomy Field, Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka during November 2009 to July 2010 to study the effect of variety and varying levels of nitrogen application to ratoon crop of boro rice. Four varieties (BRRI hybrid dhan2, BRRI dhan29, BRRI dhan35 and BRRI dhan47) and four doses of nitrogen (0%, 25%, 50% and 75% N of recommended dose) were tested. These doses of N fertilizer were applied to the ratoon crop just after harvesting of the main crop leaving 15 cm stuble height above the ground level. Among the main crop BRRI hybrid dhan2 produced significantly highest grain yield (7.037 t ha-1). In the ratoon crop grain yield of BRRI hybrid dhan2 and BRRI dhan29 with all levels of N application produced significantly higher grain yield (710-917 kg ha-1). So, BRRI hybrid dhan2 and BRRI dhan29 with 25% extra N application could be considered for ratoon cropping.

IFRS Compliance in the Year of the Pig: Hong Kong Impairment Testing
Authors: M. Carlin Tyrone , Finch Nigel , Manh Tran Dung
Published: September 2019

Several studies have assumed that the implementation of IFRS can enhance the quality of financial reports, in turn improving their reliability and usefulness (Wyatt, 2005; Barth et al., 2008). However, such studies generally suggest that the introduction of IFRS guarantees consistency and compliance in practice. Given that goodwill impairment testing under IFRS presents a technically challenging task (Hoogendoorn, 2006; Wines et al., 2007) that can materially impact the determination of economic profit, this study focuses on assessing the compliance quality of a large sample of Hong Kong listed firms that are mature IFRS adopters. By examining the detailed disclosures made by 264 large listed firms in 2007, three years after Hong Kong’s implementation of IFRS, an alarmingly high rate of non compliance with HKAS 36 still exists among these goodwill-intensive firms, casting doubts over the hypothesis that lax compliance is a characteristic associated solely with early adoption.
Measuring Central Bank Independence for Vietnam
Authors: Duong Thi Thuy Nga , Do Van Vinh
Published: September 2019

Recent instabilities in conducting monetary policy in Vietnam’s macroeconomics demand instant preparations for adopting a new framework: Inflation targeting. In fact, the State bank of Vietnam has shown the International Monetary Fund its willingness to adopt this framework over the past 5 years since 2005. In order to prepare for successfully adopting this framework and reaching price stability, firstly, and most importantly, the central bank needs to have a certain degree of independence. In fact, the negative relationship between the degree of central bank independence (CBI) and inflation is found in both industrialised countries and developing countries. In this study, legal central bank independence indices are calculated for Vietnam according to the newest and most popular methods of Grilli, Masciandaro, and Tabellini (1991) and Cukierman (1992). We compare and conclude that the central bank independence index of Vietnam is lower than that of other emerging countries. In these countries, like Vietnam, the Central bank is a member of Government. Suggestions for the State bank of Vietnam in terms of improvements in lending regulations to government, thus, are provided.
The Impact of Some Macro-Economic Factors on Vietnam Youth Entrepreneurship and Self-Employment
Authors: Ngo Quynh An
Published: September 2019

The main objective of this work is to empirically understand the impact of some macro-economic factors on youth entrepreneurship and self-employment. In comparison with most of the existing literature that mainly considers self-employment in general, this study refers to two groups of young self-employed people: (i) self-employers who work for themselves (not employers), and (ii) business managers/owners (employers), and points out the factors that have quite different impacts on these groups. The balanced panel dataset during the period 2006-2009 that corresponds to a strong process of global economic integration in Vietnam is used. Applying fixed and random effects models, the results imply that self-employment is a temporary option for young people when the risk of unemployment and under-employment is high. In addition, the low labor market competitiveness of young people that is mainly due to limited skills and qualifications is the main reason that makes young people engage in the self-employment sector. There was also evidence that regional development factors have promoted local youth entrepreneurship in Vietnam.

In this short note, we give some new results on continuous bounded cohomology groups of topological semigroups with values in complex field. We show that the second continuous bounded cohomology group of a compact metrizable semigroup, is a Banach space. Also, we study cohomology groups of amenable topological semigroups, and we show that cohomology groups of rank greater than one of a compact left or right amenable semigroup, are trivial. Also, we give some examples and applications about topological lattices.

ASSESSMENT OF MECHANICAL DAMAGES IN THE PRIMARY Zn-MnO2 BATTERIES BY ELECTROCHEMICAL IMPEDANCE SPECTROSCOPY
Authors: Riabokin Oleg , Boichuk Oleksandr , Pershina Katherine
Published: September 2019

By current study determined dependence between changing of the average capacitance of the destroyed electrodes of chemical current sources, surface geometry and chemical composition of electrodes surface. In case of the minimum destruction of the surface of the electrode, the maximum value of the average capacity is achieved with the ratio Zn: Mn = 2: 1. The minimum capacity was been at a maximum concentration of manganese on the surface (Zn: Mn = 1: 3) and the maximum degree of destruction. That is, the destruction of the surface of the electrodes leads to a change in the ratio of Zinc and Manganese and with strong surface destruction, the number of Manganese increases significantly. The using of the second frequency-dependent parameter (capacitance dispersion) as a lumped parameter was allowed the application of the principles of electric current commutation for register the layered change in the electric characteristics of the destroyed electrodes. Due to that mathematical technique was obtained a visual picture of the quantitative and qualitative changes on the destroyed surfaces. The general view of the received diagrams repeated the contours of the SEM microphoto images of the same surfaces. There is a presence of sites with the local concentrated deviations from the total distribution of the capacitance in the specific frequency range in case of deep damage in the diagrams. Thus, these diagrams (EIS images) give a clear picture of the electrodes surface of and can be used to evaluate the type of surface damage and the degree of destruction of the electrodes of chemical current sources.
SYNTHESIS AND STUDY OF THE HETERONUCLEAR ACETYLACETONATE Nd(III) AND Ni(II) COMPLEX AS A PRECURSOR FOR OBTAINING COMPLEX-OXIDE STRUCTURES

Published: September 2019

The heterometallic acetylacetonate complex NdNi(АА)5·6Н2О has been synthesized to obtain nickel-neodymium-containing complex oxide materials. The properties of the complex have been investigated by physico-chemical methods of analysis (elemental analysis, differential thermal analysis, IR spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction).

The data of X-ray powder diffraction and IR spectroscopy of NdNi(АА)5·6Н2О confirmed the formation of a new heterometallic single-phase compound. In the IR spectrum of NdNi(АА)5·6Н2О, a change is observed in the amount and position of the bands in the region of stretching vibrations of the М-О, CС, CО bonds, as compared to the IR spectra of the monometallic complexes Ni(AA)2·2Н2О and Nd(AA)3·3Н2О.

An assessment of the thermal stability of the complex has been performed. It was shown that the synthesized heterometallic complex NdNi(АА)5·6Н2О is thermally more stable than monometallic acetylacetonates of Ni(II) and Nd(III). The heterocomplex can be used as a precursor to obtain heterometallic oxide structures. The pyrolysis of the NdNi(АА)5·6Н2О complex and, for comparison, the pyrolysis of the monocomplexes Ni(AA)2·2Н2О and Nd(AA)3·3Н2О were carried out with changing the thermolysis conditions — change of heating rate (from 5 °C/min to 20 °C/min), change of the final heating temperature (to 500 °C and to 800 °C), change of the exposure time at the final temperature (from 1 hour to 5 hours). It has been established that a change in the temperature conditions of the pyrolysis process affects the characteristics of the materials obtained (degree of amorphism, phase composition, the presence of impurities). The study of the composition of the pyrolysis products of the heterocomplex and the mixture of monometallic acetylacetonates of Ni(II) and Nd(III), obtained under heating to 800°C and holding at this temperature for 3 hours, showed the formation of a complex oxide Nd2NiO4, as well as other phases NiO, Nd6O11, Nd-Ni-O. However, their amount is noticeably smaller in the case of using a heterocomplex.

It is shown that the temperature of heat treatment of the heterometallic complex and the time of its pyrolysis are much less in comparison with solid-phase synthesis methods.
Postmodernism, Postmodernist Fiction, Apocalypse and Fantasy
Authors: Abbas Dr. S. Z.
Published: September 2019

Terms like 'modern', 'postmodern' and 'contemporary' are subject-centered, and not based on any historical or objective phenomenon or personality. Everyone feels that something called 'Postmodernism' has happened, but, as regards its true nature and causes, opinion is divided; a few people say postmodernism is a fiction. There is also a problem with the nomenclature. What was referred to as 'contemporary', for example, in 1956 by the writers of that year will not be so to the generation of Y2K. All these terms tend to shift about what is known as PP in temporal logic, which itself keeps moving on the time scale. When we rename modern literature as the age of T.S. Eliot, we assign it a slot in the historical perspective. A further complication is created by the use of ‘modern’ and 'modernist', ‘postmodern’ and ‘postmodernist' as well as ‘contemporary.’ We may, perhaps, safely assume that its element in each case signifies the avant-garde, a group of authors in the respective period that is distinguished by experimentation and innovation. While attempts to accord the postmodern period a definitive time frame (which includes the postmodernist movement in arts and literature) remain in an inconclusive stage, let us assume that postmodernism encompasses the period from the fifties to the present time, which is open-endeded. It should also be noted that some postmodernist writers concentrate on new tones and new reality rather than experimental techniques.

Edward Neale was a pupil of Joseph Wolf. His first oils and watercolours were exhibited in 1858, and his first published work appeared in 1862 in John George Wood's The Illustrated Natural History. His illustrations went on to appear in several significant ornithological works published during the latter half of the nineteenth century. His relationship with and work for Edward Thomas Booth were essential in establishing his reputation as a bird artist.
Taxidermy undertaken by Sheals of Belfast
Authors: Morris P. A.
Published: September 2019

The Sheals taxidermy business in Belfast became famous for the quality of their work. Three of their order books survive, recording jobs done for named customers from January 1897 to December 1911, and January 1919 to January 1920 inclusive. Such records are extremely scarce as few taxidermists appear to have kept any regular paperwork until recent times, and little information has survived about such businesses from the heyday of commercial taxidermy. This paper reviews the types of taxidermy undertaken, species handled and the customer base for what became one of the leading taxidermists in Ireland, with an international reputation.
Restrained Airs: The Diegetic Surface and Nondiegetic Depth of British Film Music
Authors: Mazey Paul
Published: September 2019

This article considers how pre-existing music has been employed in British cinema, paying particular attention to the diegetic/nondiegetic boundary and notions of restraint. It explores the significance of the distinction between diegetic music, which exists in the world of the narrative, and nondiegetic music, which does not. It analyses the use of pre-existing operatic music in two British films of the same era and genre: Kind Hearts and Coronets (1949) and The Importance of Being Earnest (1952), and demonstrates how seemingly subtle variations in the way music is used in these films produce markedly different effects. Specifically, it investigates the meaning of the music in its original context and finds that only when this bears a narrative relevance to the film does it cross from the diegetic to the nondiegetic plane. This reveals that whereas music restricted to the diegetic plane may express the outward projection of the characters' emotions, music also heard on the nondiegetic track may reveal a deeper truth about their feelings. In this way, the meaning of the music varies depending upon how it is used. While these two films may differ in whether or not their pre-existing music occupies a nondiegetic or diegetic position in relation to the narrative, both are characteristic of this era of British film-making in using music in an understated manner which expresses a sense of emotional restraint and which marks the films with a particularly British inflection.
Exotic Locales: Representations of Place and the Use of Colour in the British Transatlantic Telefilm
Authors: Sexton Max
Published: September 2019

The use of place and colour in the action adventure articulates not only an emerging aesthetic genre in the 1960s but also a system of production organisation that depended on a complex set of economic and technological circumstances. The purpose of this article is to examine how certain types of image within the telefilm were able to represent televisual space that relied on the technology of 35mm film and on shooting either on location or in a studio backlot. The article also explores how the use of colour in certain transatlantic dramas became a metonym for the epic and was used to devise new ways of presenting action on television.
