A alegoria em J.R.R. Tolkien: entre as Ciências da Religião e a Filosofia Perene
Authors: Klautau Diego , Caldas Filho Carlos Ribeiro
Published: July 2024

O ensaio On Fairy-Stories de J.R.R. Tolkien (1892-1973) é resultado da conferência de 1939 para a Universidade de St. Andrews e revisado para publicação em 1947. Neste texto, Tolkien dialoga com duas figuras importantes para as Ciências da R)eligião, Max Müller (1823-1900) e Andrew Lang (1844-1912). O primeiro é um dos fundadores da ciência da religião, a partir de suas pesquisas em filologia, enfatizando as relações entre linguagem, mito e religião. O segundo foi antropólogo e folclorista, igualmente discutindo as relações entre mito e religião. Neste diálogo, Tolkien estabelece críticas a ambos, fundamentalmente relativas à concepção de alegoria, e indica uma proposta teórica que resgata elementos da filosofia perene, enfatizando elementos de Platão, Aristóteles, Agostinho e Tomás de Aquino.
Nem criptoteologia nem reducionismo sociológico: contribuições para o debate epistemológico das Ciências da Religião no Brasil
Authors: Huff Júnior Arnaldo Érico , Calvani Carlos Eduardo Brandão
Published: July 2024

Construiu-se ao longo das últimas décadas um conflito teórico-político interno às Ciências da Religião no Brasil. De um lado, estão as abordagens próximas à filosofia, à teologia e à fenomenologia, onde autores como Otto, Tillich e Eliade são referências. De outro, as abordagens em perspectiva social científica, quando autores como Durkheim, Weber e Bourdieu constituem o parâmetro. Esta polarização, ao passo que, acirra os ânimos, ao mesmo tempo constiui um panorama pouco auspicioso para a consolidação da área. Fluem, de ambos os lados, acusações de “criptoteologia” e de “reducionismo sociológico”. A tendência é a de um encastelamento disciplinar e ideológico que não possibilita nem horizontes dialogais e nem a construção identitária das Ciências da Religião no contexto das demais humanidades. Uma possibilidade de superação de tal polarização consiste no entendimento da disciplina como composta por dois momentos complementares, um sistemático e outro histórico. Trata-se de uma compreensão que surge nos inícios da Ciência da Religião europeia e que pode lançar luzes no atual debate brasileiro. Sustentando tal concepção, uma atitude empática ante o fenômeno religioso continua sendo necessária por parte dos pesquisadores.

Um olhar sobre as benzedeiras do município de Quirinópolis: entre a cultura, a religião e a medicina popular
Authors: Xavier de Azevedo Gilson , Lemos Carolina Teles
Published: July 2024

O objetivo desta pesquisa é o de situar a figura das benzedeiras a partir de três contextos a saber: a cultura, a religião e a medicina populares. O presente estudo se justifica a partir das muitas benzedeiras encontradas no município de Quirinópolis, 23 ao todo, sudoeste do Estado de Goiás entre os anos de 2013 e 2016. O problema central é verificar como se dão as condições de permanência dessas mulheres como uma espécie de artefato social em tempos de secularização. Trabalha-se como hipótese o fato de que as práticas de benzeção são uma forma de racionalização simbólica do mundo e de esperançamento, o que justifica sua procura. A metodologia empregada na pesquisa é a de um estudo exploratório de caráter bibliográfico com pesquisa de campo, utilizando como instrumento de pesquisa um questionário fechado aplicado a dez mulheres. Realizou-se a análise qualitativa dos dados por meio dos conceitos de ‘popular’ e ‘oficial’ em relação aos três contextos acima indicados. Aponta-se, por resultado, a constatação de que as condições de permanência das práticas de benzeção tendem a durar por muito tempo ainda ou talvez enquanto a humanidade perdurar.
Rubem Alves e o entretempo messiânico: variações sobre corpo, poder e esperança
Authors: Cabral Alexandre Marques , Fernando de Almeida Edson
Published: July 2024

Este artigo tem como objetivo apresentar o conceito de temporalidade messiânica ou entretempo messiânico em Rubem Alves. Tal temporalidade está construída sobre três elementos fundamentais da sua antropologia teológica, a saber, o corpo, o poder e a esperança. Em um primeiro momento, sob a chave da esperança, mapeamos duas temporalidades do mundo que se entrechocam em seus escritos, quais sejam, o realismo e a utopia. Em seguida, sob a chave do corpo, apresentamos a noção de teogonia somatológica como imprescindível para a compreensão da temporalidade do entretempo nestes mesmos escritos. Finalmente, sob a chave do poder, desenvolvemos a noção entretempo que em Rubem Alves diz respeito às descontinuidades qualitativas que interrompem experiências históricas que amarram as possibilidades criativas da condição humana.
A expulsão do artista na República de Platão e a expulsão de Adão e Eva no Gênesis Judaico
Authors: Coutinho Luciano , Albergaria Caroline
Published: July 2024

Este artigo discorrerá sobre semelhanças e diferenças nas expulsões do artista na República de Platão e da humanidade do Paraíso no Gênesis. 1) No início da República, Sócrates, tirânico, expulsa o artista da polis, pois avalia que a arte torna-se uma arma manipulatória das psychai, quando entendida literalmente; porém, ao final do diálogo, Sócrates, já filósofo, sustenta que a cegueira religiosa que torna representações artísticas em verdades é que deveria ser expulsa. 2) No Gênesis, Deus, tirânico, expulsa Adão e Eva do Paraíso, por provarem do fruto da árvore do conhecimento que os tornaria menos ignorantes. Assim, o ‘conhecimento’ e sua falta (a ignorância) serão nosso foco de análise, já que assumem princípios fundantes da própria humanidade nas duas imagens.
“Gênero é pedofilia, zoofilia e necrofilia”: a destruição da família e as ideologias de gênero e gênesis nos discursos de Magno Malta
Authors: Maranhão Fº Eduardo Meinberg de Albuquerque
Published: July 2024

A partir de discursos do político evangélico Magno Malta e de notícias veiculadas na mídia sobre o mesmo, apresento neste texto alguns dos modos como uma certa “ideologia de gênesis” (MARANHÃO F°, 2018a e b) tem se consolidado na contemporaneidade recente como perpetradora de um dispositivo da cis-heteronorma, da sofismática “ideologia de gênero”, da bélica resistência aos estudos que objetivam a justiça e igualdade de gênero e da sinalização de possível rompimento da laicidade do Estado.

A linguagem da fé na perspectiva de Paul Ricoeur
Authors: Xavier Donizete José
Published: July 2024

Este artigo tem por objetivo analisar a especificidade da linguagem religiosa à luz do pensamento de Paul Ricoeur. Considerando a linguagem como fenômeno global que toca todo o universo da existência humana, o filósofo encontra na fenomenologia da linguagem e em seus elementos específicos uma função específica que tangencia as estruturas de uma linguagem superabundante de sentido. Para Ricoeur, categoricamente o discurso religioso não carece de sentido, uma vez que é por si uma linguagem de fé capaz de desvelar novas dimensões da realidade e da verdade. Nesse sentido, o artigo examina a linguagem religiosa em sua capacidade de proporcionar e comunicar a experiência religiosa. Analisa o discurso religioso sob aspecto linguístico ricoeuriano ressaltando que o discurso religioso não pretende ser apenas significativo, mas também verdade, e, para isso, é preciso reconhecer o valor dessa verdade desse tipo de linguagem a partir dos seus próprios critérios emprestados do discurso filosófico. Por fim, considera ainda que são os múltiplos jogos de linguagens que fazem figurar o auto aplicativo, o performativo e o parabólico na eclosão da expressividade humana em sua constituição simbólica.

A terapêutica do religioso na pandemia: uma leitura sociofilosófica da questão
Authors: Hahn Noli Bernardo , Vianna Lucas Oliveira , Mendonça Matheus Thiago Carvalho
Published: July 2024

A crise sanitária desencadeada pela pandemia de Covid-19 ensejou a rápida implementação de medidas de distanciamento social. Decretos públicos implicaram a suspensão irrestrita de liturgias religiosas públicas. Nesse contexto, desenvolve-se uma análise sociológica e filosófica da questão: as medidas excepcionais adotadas avaliaram adequadamente a relevância socioantropológica e terapêutica do fenômeno religioso? Adotando a revisão bibliográfica e a análise qualitativa como metodologia principal, o trabalho harmoniza os conceitos de secularismo moderno (Taylor), vida e religião como bens humanos básicos incomensuráveis (Finnis) e espiritualidade como elemento constitutivo central do sujeito (Frankl) para, por fim, abordar casos limítrofes da ponderação entre saúde pública e liberdade religiosa, a fim de avaliar a proporcionalidade das medidas empregadas.

Published: July 2024

O presente artigo, resultado de pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, prescruta um dos segmentos do catolicismo presente no Brasil a fim de evidenciar como nasceu a proposta da Economia de Comunhão. Nossa pesquisa lança luz sobre aspectos desconhecidos da história recente da Igreja no Brasil: a percepção de um movimento eclesial quanto à atuação do episcopado no período da ditadura militar; a autocompreensão do Movimento dos Focolares frente às críticas dirigidas pelo episcopado aos Novos Movimentos Eclesiais; a posição das lideranças dos Focolares no Brasil quanto à atuação política do episcopado durante a ditadura; o processo de recepção das indicações do magistério latino-americano, por parte do Movimento dos Focolares, no qual a “opção preferencial pelos pobres” não significou a incorporação das práticas e da linguagem então hegemônicas no contexto eclesial brasileiro.
Effect of rice husk morphology on the ability to synthesize silicon carbide by pyrolysis method
Authors: Kien Kieu Do Trung , Ong Dieu Hanh , Nguyen Hoang Thien Khoi , Huynh Ngoc Minh
Published: July 2024

Silicon carbide (SiC) is a mineral with good technical properties and high economic value. However, the synthesis of SiC is expensive because it is synthesized at a high-temperature environment (above 1500oC). The synthesis of SiC from biomass can significantly reduce the synthesis temperature. One commonly used biomass material for synthesizing SiC is rice husk. However, the ability to synthesize SiC depends on the shape of the rice husk. The influence of the morphology of rice husk on the ability to synthesize SiC was studied in this study. Experimental results showed that the original rice husk would give better SiC formation capacity than the rice husk powder. The amount of SiC formed using the original rice husk when impregnated by sodium silicate solution and pyrolysis at 1200oC is 18.3% (wt%.). With rice husk powder, it is 15.12% (wt%.). The results of analysis of the mineral composition, functional groups, and morphologies by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier Infrared Transform Method (FT-IR), and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) found that the polymorphy of SiC is α-SiC and β-SiC. These minerals are the basis for SiC from rice husks, which can be applied as wear-resistant materials.
Preparation and characterization of Lithium-stabilized Colloidal Silica as a silicate densifier for concrete surface treatment
Authors: Nguyen Hoang Thien Khoi , Nguyen Ngoc Tri Huynh , Huynh Ngoc Minh , Nguyen Khanh Son
Published: July 2024

Enhancing the durability of concrete by safeguarding it against cracking and environmental deterioration is paramount. While silicate-based densifiers have been instrumental in shielding concrete surfaces from wear and environmental factors, the surging popularity of lithium silicate solutions faces a significant impediment due to the high cost of lithium, mainly attributed to its predominant use in manufacturing lithium batteries. To address this substantial challenge, an intriguing approach involves blending lithium silicate with colloidal silica, potentially offering a cost-effective and efficient solution for concrete surface treatment. This study delves into the feasibility of utilizing lithium-stabilized colloidal silica as a silicate densifier, focusing on their preparation, characterization, and efficacy in lab-scale applications. The results demonstrate that lithium-stabilized colloidal silica can heighten surface hardness while concurrently reducing porosity. However, it is worth noting that this approach presents particular challenges, particularly regarding preparation and water resistance, when compared to surfaces treated solely with lithium silicate. Addressing these hurdles holds promise for optimizing and enhancing lithium-stabilized colloidal silica and advancing the concrete surface treatment field in future research endeavours.

Published: July 2024

Treating dredged sediment is a complex processing and ongoing challenge. To utilize dredged sediment for the landfill or construction purposes, a material fabricated from a mixture of dredged sediment, Portland cement, and fly ash, was cured under room temperature and hydrothermal condition at 180 °C and 0.9 MPa pressure for 16 hours. The response surface methodology was used to evaluate the compressive strength of the material, with the range of factors investigated being the dredged sediments/solid ratio (0.3-0.9), cement/fly ash ratio (2-4), and water/solid ratio (0.45-0.55). The fitting models offered an accurate and reliable match to the actual data. The optimum mix proportions of two curing conditions were obtained using total desirability function, meet multi-objective criteria. This result finger out hydrothermal curing significantly enhances treatment capacity of dredged sediment, with a lower CO2 emission in the mixture compared to ambient curing. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) were used to figure out the difference between the minerals formed in the material under two curing conditions, such as tobermorite.

Authors: Khanh Huynh Cong , Phap Ly Thai , Toan Do Thanh
Published: July 2024

Aluminum alloy of thermal-resistant aluminum alloy wire for overhead line conductors usually contains zirconium, silicon, iron, and other components. Hence, Al-Zr-Si master alloy can be used to produce thermal-resistant aluminum alloy. In this study, the manufacturing procedure of Al-Zr-Si master alloy from zircon concentrate has been introduced. The zircon concentrate was thoroughly mixed with different amounts of KCl and Na2SiF6 or Na3AlF6, then sintered in the electric muffle furnace at 700oC for 2 hrs with automatic temperature control. The sinter was premixed with Na3­AlF6 at the 1:1 ratio and dried at 140-160oC to remove the humidity. The powder mixture was added to the aluminum molten at 1200o­C and then stirred well to ensure proper powder mixing in the melt. After the finish reaction and slag skimming, the melt was taken out of the furnace and poured into the mold. The master alloy was characterized by a Spectrometer, ICP-OES, and optical microscopy.
Differential abundance in upper respiratory microbiome between smoking and non-smoking COVID-19 patients

Published: July 2024

The COVID-19 pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 has resulted in significant respiratory morbidity and mortality. Smoking is a well-established risk factor for adverse respiratory outcomes, and it may exacerbate COVID-19 outcomes by altering the upper respiratory tract (URT) microbiome. However, the association between smoking, the URT microbiome, and COVID-19 severity remains controversial. In this study, we investigated the microbial community in the UTR of smoking and non-smoking COVID-19 patients using 16S ribosomal RNA metagenomic datasets. By characterizing the microbial profiles of the URT of 88 COVID-19 patients with and without a smoking history, we examined the differences in the URT microbiome between smokers and non-smokers and identified bacteria that could serve as smoking signatures. Our study found that Prevotella was the most abundant genus in the URT microbiome of both smoking and non-smoking COVID-19 patients, followed by five other dominant genera. Notably, Fusobacterium was significantly higher in smokers than non-smokers, suggesting that smoking may affect the URT microbial composition. However, the alpha and beta diversity indices showed no significant differences within and across communities, regardless of smoking status or levels of severity. Differential abundance analysis suggested that the impact of smoking on the URT microbiome may lead to an increase in the abundance of Streptobacillus in smoking patients. Overall, this study highlights the potential impact of smoking on the URT microbiome and its relevance to COVID-19 outcomes. Thus, it provides insights into the underlying mechanisms that may lead to worsened COVID-19 outcomes due to smoking-induced alterations in the URT microbiome.
The Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Corporate Governance
Authors: Kalkan Göktürk
Published: July 2024

The advent of artificial intelligence (AI) marks a pivotal shift in the landscape of corporate governance, catalyzing a reevaluation of traditional frameworks and necessitating a forward-looking approach to decision-making, risk management, and ethical considerations. This study explores the multifaceted impact of AI on corporate governance, offering a nuanced analysis of how AI technologies are transforming the operational, strategic, and ethical dimensions of organizations. The research underscores the potential of AI to enhance decision-making processes, optimize operational efficiencies, and foster innovation by providing advanced analytical capabilities and predictive insights. However, it concurrently highlights the emergence of unprecedented challenges, including data privacy concerns, algorithmic bias, and the need for robust regulatory frameworks to mitigate risks associated with AI deployment. The article advocates for a proactive stance in redefining corporate governance models to accommodate the disruptive nature of AI, emphasizing the integration of ethical considerations and transparency in AI applications. It calls for a collaborative effort among corporate leaders, policymakers, and stakeholders to develop governance structures that not only leverage AI’s potential but also safeguard against its inherent risks. The study’s recommendations include the establishment of ethical AI guidelines, the adoption of transparent AI practices, and the continuous monitoring of AI systems to ensure their alignment with corporate governance objectives and societal values. However, it is important to note that the approach and methods used in this study are based on a qualitativeliterature review and, therefore, the generalization of the findings across different sectors and corporate governance frameworks may be limited. Additionally, the rapidly evolving nature of AI technologies poses inherent challenges to keeping up with emerging trends and potential risks.
Is the Russian Green Bond Market Strong Enough to Hedge in the Crisis Times?
Authors: Frecautan Ion
Published: July 2024

The scope of this research has two facets. First, we study the spillover effects between the Russian green bonds and the leading capital market’s ‘indexes before and after the February 2022 events. Second, the identified level of asset connectedness permits to identify portfolio management implications for the analyzed assets. To reveal the spillover effects, we applied the vector autoregressive model and created a synthetic index to capture the dynamics of the green bonds market which included 14 green bond issues between 2021 and 2023 in Russia. We analyze oil & gas, electrical utilities, metals & extraction, chemical sectors collectively referred to as “pollution intensive indexes”. The paper contributes by discoveringthat the total connectedness index (TCI) between Russian green bond market and pollution intensive indexes changed over time and increased after the outbreak of the conflict. Additionally, the paper is novel on revealing the relationship between low hedging effectiveness and hedging ratio of green bond and energy, metals and extraction, sustainability and oil and gas indexes which indicate no need for hedging after February events. The optimal bivariate portfolio weights analysis shows that Russian green bonds market is an outstanding instrument for assets portfolio management during geopolitical conflict. These findings have implications for the government and other stakeholders to manage both the contagion and climate risks during the military conflict.

Optimizing the Effect of Additives on qPCR Detection v1
Authors: Phillips Jonathan , Blaha Gregor
Published: July 2024

Optimizing qPCR reactions has two key objectives: (1) to handle a wider range of samples, and (2) to minimize variability between replicates. [Anonymous 2009; Minas K., et al. 2011; Nolan T., et al. 2006]. Anecdotal evidence suggests that certain additives can enhance the PCR reactions and other DNA- and RNA-polymerase-based reactions, resulting in the detection of even smaller quantities of nucleic acids with higher confidence [Villalava C., et al. 2001; Rapley R., et al. 1994]. Although several mechanisms of action for these additives have been evoked, their effect on a particular assay cannot be predicted and must be determined experimentally. At the end of this protocol, we provide a table with some additives that may improve PCR-based reaction.

Published: July 2024

Delivering content and language at the same time is believed to equip students with excellent and balanced competence. The goal of this study is to investigate and describe the implementation of CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) in an English class during the COVID-19 pandemic. A qualitative case study design was employed in this research. The participant in the study is an English teacher at a private junior high school in Cimahi, West Java, Indonesia. The data was collected through observations and in-depth interviews. The findings indicate that CLIL is implemented based on the 4C’s framework (communication, content, cognition, and culture) in all stages of learning activity (pre-while-post activity). Although CLIL is theoretically mentioned to be applied flexibly, the teacher emphasized the particular pattern: communication comes first, followed by content, continued by cognition, and last is culture, with the intention of accommodating and facilitating both students’ cognitive and affective sides, as well as learning engagement and interactivity during remote learning in the pandemic era. Some challenges are also reported to emerge, but the school's support has helped this approach be executed successfully. This study implies that CLIL can provide ideal outcomes when all components of the school work together to be ready to execute it, despite the obstacles that grow in cyberspace that hamper face-to-face learning.

Published: July 2024

Literatures are meanings of everyday life as on point with Sandra Bem’s concept about androgynous sides that focuses on indicating masculinity and femininity of individuals and societies. Why Don’t You Get a Job? is a song by The Offspring in 1999 that underlines American couples’ condition where only one side is working while the other is doing nothing. Interestingly, this band shows how that situation happens to both gender. Then, how is androgynous perspective represented on The Offspring’s Why Don’t You Get a Job?? Through qualitative method, this paper exposes that man and woman are proved not to be so independent and dependent, but both should work to complement each other. That song indicates that society is so androgynous that spots roles of man and woman supported by Bem’s theory. In conclusion, the song shows society is not totally about man or woman but how each side asks other side for better deed. The Offspring asserts androgynous perspective that requires roles of man and woman, not of being dominant but to be complementary.

This research attempts to describe how accurate the implementation of formative assessments designed by teachers is through reviewing the learning plans or 'teaching modules' of the Merdeka curriculum.Methodologically, this research uses a descriptive qualitative approach to explain the position and function of formative assessment in a sample of teaching modules as well as reviewing the management and interpretation of formative assessment results. The data in this research is in the form of learning flows in teaching modules as formative assessment content of the learning process. As a research sample, the data source for this research took teaching modules from SMA Negeri 1 Tanjungbalai, SMA Negeri 1 Rowosari, and SMA Negeri 7 Medan. The data was analyzed using an application balance review process using the Merdeka curriculum assessment guidelines. The data is reconstructed if there is a discrepancy between the formative assessment applied by the teacher in the teaching module and the theory and principles of formative assessment. Then, the results of the review and reconstruction of the comparison results in the preparation of formative assessments produce conclusions in the form of a series of learning process flows which are the core of formative assessment in the teaching module.The results showed that the position of formative assessment in the three learning modules had different proportions. The proportion of formative assessment in the first module looks very small, so the reconstruction of the flow of formative assessment is carried out for five learning activities. In the second and third modules, the proportion of formative assessment is already large, so the second module only reconstructs the flow of formative assessment in one learning activity. While in the third module, the formative assessment flow was reconstructed for two learning activities.

Generalized anxiety disorder is an anxiety disorder commonly experienced in excessive worry by some people with trauma. In the short story entitled Shifting written by Ann Beattie, Natalie is worried about her marriage because Natalie thinks that Larry's mother will not approve of their marriage, this is because Natalie is rarely accompanying Larry. Then, how are generalized anxiety disorders accentuated in Ann Beattie’s Shifting? In analysis, the main character in this story is over-worrying that makes herself being different in the view of the others. The language that she knows has been over consumed that she has been swallowed by the language itself.  In conclusion, the short story indicates how any disorder may come from any small worry. If the worrying is not finished, it could be piled up and be shaped into further anxiety that disturbs life of being individuals and parts of societies.

The use of the mobile phone as a gamification tool to improve attention and interest in a university context has been barely evaluated. The objective of this study is to evaluate it in some subjects of the Medicine and Biology degree. The experiment was carried out in three highly demanding and rote learning subjects of the Degree in Medicine and Biology at the University of Oviedo. After each lesson, the researchers devoted 8 minutes to carry out game-based quizzes through mobile phones. The students' satisfaction with the technique was evaluated at the end of the subject. The statistics used are descriptive together with histograms. The results were encouraging, with more than 90% of the students wanting to use the methodology in the rest of the subjects and more than 90% also having a high degree of overall satisfaction. The results were highly concordant in the three subjects analysed despite their technical diversity.

In the 2020-2021 academic year, during the pandemic, the teaching team of the Master Social and Educational Interventions of the University of Barcelona applied the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) model, which integrates technology in the teaching-learning processes (Mishra & Koehler, 2006). A participatory evaluative research (Redice Redice20-2861), with the participation of faculty and students involved, was carried out to identify the elements that facilitate and hinder virtual teaching, to know the impact of its application and to formulate recommendations applicable to online university higher education. A mixed quantitative and qualitative methodology was used, employing different instruments such as questionnaires, focus groups, interviews and observations during the 2020-2021 academic year, analyzed with NVivo 11, Atlas.ti 8.0 and Excel. The results obtained show that the application of digital environment activities within face-to-face training improve, among others, the connection with the professional world and offer dynamization strategies in the classroom that contribute to the creation of learning communities as an effective strategy.

Committing to the consolidation of an inclusive school implies a transformation of political, cultural structures and school practices, as well as a commitment and positive attitude of all those people who make up and initiate the change. It is about believing, betting and fighting for the construction of friendly environments. This work arises from a research project and its purpose is to analyze and understand the interventions, strategies and inclusive measures implemented by the different people who have intervened in the educational process of Alma's case, as well as the intentions expressed from what they have achieved towards what they would have liked to achieve and the barriers that may have hindered that ideal to be fulfilled. For this, a qualitative methodology has been carried out, using the semi-structured interview as an instrument. The conclusions show us evidence of the existence of difficulties in achieving their goals, as well as a teaching predisposition towards an inclusion that has not been achieved.

This study explores the relationships between emotional intelligence (EI), general intelligence (GI), and demographic factors (gender, age, grade repetition). The sample consisted of 341 secondary students (177 male students and 164 female students) aged between 12 and 17 from the province of Valladolid (Spain). Regarding gender, significant differences were identified in the correlations between EI and GI, suggesting variations in the manifestation of this relationship between male and female students. Age also influenced these correlations, highlighting the evolution of the EI-GI relationship as students grow and mature. Grade repetition was associated with differences in correlations, indicating the impact of educational experiences on the development of emotional and cognitive skills. Although the correlations found do not support concluding theories, they highlight the importance of addressing EI, especially in students repeating grades, to enhance social skills and academic well-being. These findings help to understand the EI-GI interaction in educational contexts, emphasizing the relevance of considering demographic and contextual factors in the promotion of these skills in students.
Los corridos revolucionarios publicados por la imprenta de Eduardo Guerrero (México, siglo XX)
Authors: Monroy Sánchez Grecia
Published: July 2024

Based on the question of how much the editorial dimension has been considered in the production and circulation of the revolutionary corrido, in this paper I present the results of the research around the first compilation of this literary subgenre, published in 1931 not by a researcher, but, precisely, by an author, editor and printer of popular literature. I am referring to Eduardo Guerrero and his Corridos históricos de la revolución mexicana desde 1910 hasta 1930. In addition to offering a profile of Guerrero's publishing house, recovering primary and secondary sources, I place the compiled volume in its context, critically assuming its biases and the fact that it is made up of materials that originally circulated as broadsheets, whose dynamics may contradict the commemorative vocation of the compilation. Then, I address the results of the main analysis, which is the editorial dimension of the broadsheets around four aspects (the graphics, the enunciation of the titles, the organization of the texts and the authorship). All these aspects are inseparable from the complete understanding of the history of popular printing in the 20th century and from the evolution of the revolutionary corrido as a literary expression aimed fundamentally to be oralized.
Nociones básicas de fraseodidáctica y pasos para la construcción de una unidad didáctica centrada en la enseñanza-aprendizaje de la fraseología
Authors: Guevara Rincón Gema
Published: July 2024

Knowledge of one (or more) foreign language is very necessary for good communication between countries; for this reason a second language is taught in schools on a mandatory basis. The problem is that, at present, only the basic points defined by the educational law in force are taught. In our opinion, and as established by the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), it is necessary to know in depth the language of study, as well as its possible variants and common colloquial expressions. Among these expressions are the famous phrases made, paremias, locutions or placements (Phraseology); and his teaching-learning is known as Phraseeodidactic. The main objective is to give an overview of this discipline, still little exploited, and outline some key points to know how to introduce it in a teaching unit for the complete review and study of a foreign language (French in our case).
Media Discourse as Semiosis: the Potential of Semiotics for Defining Media Discourse
Authors: TSARYK Halyna ,   Danylo Halytsky Lviv National Medical University, Lviv, Ukraine
Published: July 2024

The methodological apparatus of linguistics and various related fields such as sociology, culturology, psychology, and linguosemiotics, is applied to study, comprehend, interpret, and formulate the methodological principles of discourse analysis (including media discourse as a subtype of institutional discourse) and its components (text, utterance, communicative event, communicative act). Methods and approaches to studying media discourse mostly complement each other, thus being participatory. At the current stage of language science development, media discourse is the object of numerous research investigations by Ukrainian and foreign linguists. The article aims to propose a definition of media discourse by identifying its key features as a category of communication generated by mass media. To achieve this purpose: a) we consider media discourse as a complex sign and analyze its action of sign (semiosis); b) with a focus on the sociosemiosic approach to discourse analysis, we identify characteristic features of this discourse and define it as a subtype of institutional discourse; c) we provide an interpretation of the main metalanguage units used to describe the proposed approach. Media discourse is characterized by the following features: generated by various agents (including media producers – institutions and individuals – and recipients); comprises a variety of speech genres embodied in texts, which are complex signs, the signification of which is characterized by code, information and cultural dimensions; directed towards interaction. The core finding of our investigation is considered to be the reasoned presentation of the effectiveness of applying a semiotic approach to the analysis of media discourse. Media discourse is a complex sign, the signification of which occurs in the informational space and is characterized by code, informational, and cultural dimensions.
