Authors: Abid Nasir S. , Sultan Maha T. , Tomma Jumbad H.
Published: February 2019

A new class of thiadiazole /silica nanocomposites with chemical bonds between thiadiazole monomers and modified nanosilica surface were synthesized by free radical polymerization. Presence silica nanoparticles in the structure of  nanocomposite showed effectively improve the physical and chemical properties of Producing polymers. A nanocomposite material with feature properties comparison with their polymers, The structure and morphology of the synthesis materials were investigated by FT-IR spectrum which display preparation new thiadiazole compounds and polymerization monomers. FT-IR showed disappeared double bond (C=C) of monomers, due to produce long chains of thiadiazole polymers and nanocomposite. X-ray diffraction gave idea about crystalline structure of nanoparticles and nanocomposite , X-ray showed that silica nanoparticles have high intensity at 18000 , due to nanoscale of particles which allowed for particles aggregation together. While nanocomposite show low intensity due to reacted thiadaizole polymer chains with silica nanoparticles surface. The distribution of nanoparticles had characterized by Atomic forces microscopy AFM. AFM results shown roughness in the surfaces of nanocomposites C1 and C2, comparison with silica nanoparticles which gave smooth surface. The roughness attributed to reaction between functionalized surface of silica nanoparticles and chains of thiadaizole polymers, which led to change in size particles distribution and surface of particles that refer to nanocomposite.

Published: February 2019

Objectives: Measuring the incidence of pressure injury (PI) in users hospitalized in critical units of a public reference institution in southwestern Bahia. Method: Prospective longitudinal study. Data were collected between June and August of 2017, through a direct interview, medical records, medical prescription and inspection of the participant’s skin. Results: Of the 83 participants, 39 (47%) developed PI. The medium stay in the study was 6.8 days. Most of them were male, black or brown and had low schooling. The mean age was 47.6 years (± 19.8). It was evidenced that the continuous use of vasoactive drugs and sedoanalgesia is associated with PI. Thirty- two (38.55%) participants presented a high risk for PI development. The calcaneal region (44%) was the most aﬀected. The number of lesions per participant was 1.28, on average, with lesions in stage 1 (68%) predominating. The occurrence of an unfavorable outcome (death) was statistically signiﬁcant. Conclusion: The multifactorial character of the emergence of PI requires the adoption of institutional measures focused on the prevention of this adverse event, and should be part of the process of permanent education of professionals.

O número de lesões por participante foi de 1,28, em média, predominando lesões no estágio 1 (68%). A ocorrência de desfecho desfavorável (óbito) foi estatisticamente signiﬁcativa. Conclusão: O caráter multifatorial de surgimento das LP requer a adoção de medidas institucionais focadas na prevenção deste evento adverso, devendo fazer parte do processo de educação permanente dos proﬁssionais.
ABORDAGEM ETNOMATEMÁTICA PARA TRANSFORMAÇÕES GEOMÉTRICAS A PARTIR DA TECELAGEM AFRICANA
Authors: Schunk Thaciane Jähring , Sá Lauro Chagas e
Published: February 2019

O Programa Etnomatemática de D’Ambrósio é um programa de apoio pedagógico que valoriza as culturas de determinada sociedade e seus conhecimentos adquiridos ao longo de sua existência. Além disso, podemos verificar que tal programa está intimamente relacionado à lei nº 10.639/2003, a qual estabelece que todas as unidades de ensino básico devem inserir a história e a cultura africana e afro-brasileira no currículo escolar, em consonância com o resgate dos valores da diversidade étnico-racial brasileira. Nesse sentido, esta pesquisa apresenta e discute uma oficina ocorrida na I Semana da Consciência Negra e Indígena do Instituto Federal do Espírito Santo (Ifes), campus Viana, sobre transformações geométricas em estamparias africanas, no segundo semestre de 2017, com estudantes do primeiro e segundo ano do Curso Técnico em Logística Integrado ao Ensino Médio. O objetivo principal da oficina era analisar as estamparias africanas para reconhecer as transformações geométricas presentes nos tecidos, além de realizar transformações por meio dos símbolos africanos para aflorar as habilidades de construções desses modelos. Para isso, passamos por três etapas: discussão sobre a importância das estamparias e símbolos na cultura africana – identificando as transformações geométricas nas estamparias – e exploração das transformações geométricas por meio dos símbolos africanos. O nosso método de análise da oficina foi constituído de questionário diagnóstico realizado antes e depois da proposta didática. Por meio desses questionários observamos que a oficina contribuiu positivamente para o conhecimento dos alunos sobre a relação entre a estamparia africana e a matemática. Esta proposta de ensino baseado no Programa Etnomatemática e na lei nº 10.639/2003valoriza a cultura africana e pode incentivar outros profissionais da educação a realizar metodologias que evidencie essa lei.

MODIFIKASI MODEL PEMBELAJARAN MATEMATIKA COLLABORATIVE LEARNING DENGAN STRATEGI TUGAS DAN PAKSA
Authors: Hasanah Annisa Faidah , Wibowo Linda Ari , Pardede Lamtioma Rinca
Published: February 2019

The purpose of this writing is to make students more active, discipline able to work together, in the learning process and also can improve learning creativity. The learning process in Indonesia is currently too monotonous and runs as it is without focusing on learning. So, this problem must be taken seriously, especially by the teacher. Therefore, the teacher must be able to inspire students to be actively involved in the learning process. The selection and determination of learning strategies that are most appropriate to the characteristics of students will certainly produce the desired learning goals. To make it happen, a merger of Collaborative Learning Mathematical Learning Model with Task and Forced Learning Strategy is combined. Collaborative Learning is a Learning Model that forms groups that makes it easier for teachers and students to complete learning material. Task and Forced Learning Strategies are strategies that focus on giving assignments and a little coercion so that students complete their tasks on time so that the learning process can run effectively. By modifying the Collaborative Learning Mathematics Learning Model with Task Learning Strategies and Forces students will motivate students that learning is the responsibility, all students will be more active, creative, and disciplined in learning, making students not delay work or assignments given, and will make group work becomes solid. To apply the Collaborative Learning Mathematics Learning Model with Task and Forced Learning Strategies teachers should have better and more mature planning. The teacher should master and understand the rules in the Collaborative Learning Mathematical Learning Model with Task and Forced Learning Strategies, and the teacher must always motivate students to be more active in learning.

Authors: Handayani Nurmaita Putri , Kholifaturohmah Siti , Syahrini Thania Intan
Published: February 2019

This writing aims to motivate students to be more disciplined in the learning process and can also improve and develop students’ understanding in solving problems. In order for these objectives to be achieved and the quality of learning to increase, the writing of a combination of Inside-Outside Circle Learning Method and Task and Forced Learning Strategies was conducted. The Inside-Outside Circle Learning Method is learning with a system of small circles and large circles in which students share information at the same time with different pairs briefly and regularly. While the Task and Forced Learning Strategy is alearning strategy that emphasizes the discipline and self-awareness of students with the assignment of tasks that force students to finish on time. As for this strategy combined, it is expected to overcome and cover the lack of the Inside-Outside Circle Learning Method. The result of the discussion show that the combination of Inside-Outside Circle Learning Method and Task and Forced Learning Strategies has a major influence on improving student understanding in completing tasks, making student learning outcomes better, students becoming more disciplined and more active in learning, and students accustomed to preparing self by learning before starting teaching and learning activities. Therefore, this combination is very necessary in the learning process and can be applied to improve the quality of learning in schools.

Published: February 2019

The selection and determination of appropriate learning strategies can improve the results to be obtained from the application of classroom learning models. This writing aims to discipline students to develop individual abilities of students to be more active in the learning process and improve the quality of learning. The learning process in Indonesia in general only uses conventional learning models that make students passive and undeveloped. In order for the quality of learning to increase, the Team Assisted Individualization learning model is combined with the task learning and forced strategies. The Team Assisted Individualization cooperative learning model is one of the cooperative learning models that combines learning individually and in groups. Meanwhile, task and forced learning strategies are strategies that focus on giving assignments that require students to complete them on time so that the learning process can run effectively. Students are required to do assignments according to the given deadline. This makes students become familiar with the tasks given by the teacher. Combining or modifying the learning model of the assisted individualization team with forced and forced learning strategies is expected to be able to make students more active, disciplined, independent, creative in learning and responsible for the tasks assigned. Therefore this method of incorporation is very necessary in the learning process and can be applied to improve the quality of learning in schools.
Improve social studies learning outcomes through problem-based learning, interpersonal intelligence, and initial abilities
Authors: Nurdiansyah Nurdiansyah
Published: February 2019

Abstract: The reality of social studies learning empirically only focuses on theoretical and learning material only so that it becomes uninteresting and boring learning. Social studies learning is also less noticed because of memorization so it does not seem to develop students' critical thinking skills. Learning that tends to be teacher-oriented makes students have a high level of dependence on the teacher and makes the teacher a source of information in learning. In order for social learning to be effective and efficient, this must be done by teachers who have competencies and qualifications that are appropriate to their fields. Teachers must also have the ability to choose and use relevant and appropriate learning strategies so that they can improve their learning outcomes. But sometimes many teachers have not maximally used the appropriate learning strategies in their learning, so the low social studies learning outcomes of students. This study aims to determine social studies learning outcomes through problem-based learning, interpersonal intelligence, and initial abilities. This research was conducted at Subang 1 Junior High School 1 using a quantitative approach and carried out from January to March 2016. Data was collected using questionnaires and learning outcomes tests which were then processed and analyzed using descriptive statistical analysis. The results of the study show in general that the use of problem-based learning strategies can improve social studies learning outcomes. This study provides a number of suggestions including the need to use appropriate learning strategies to improve social studies learning outcomes. Keywords: social studies learning outcome, problem based learning, interpersonal intelligence, and initial abilities.

Still weakness learning process in Indonesia is a problem that must be taken with seriously especially by the teacher. Therefore the teacher must be able to be actively involved in the learning process. This research aims to change the character of students in Indonesia who tend to be lazy in doing assignments. Thinking aloud pairs problem solving learning model is a of learning based learning in groups where students are required to be able to work together between group members. So that students are responsible for the assignments given by the teacher, a task and force learning strategy emerges so that students can change the way of learning both group and individually. Therefore with the modification between the learning model of thinking aloud pairs problem solving with task and forced strategies is expected to be more active in the learning process. This research also aims to train students to be responsible, disciplined and think critically. To apply modifications between the thinking aloud pairs problem solving learning model with the task strategy and forced, teachers should make the planning carefully, the teacher should master all the stages. The teacher must also motivate students to be more enterprising and better in learning so that the learning outcomes obtained can be maximized.

Can Text Messages Identify Suicide Risk in Real Time? A Within-Subjects Pilot Examination of Temporally-Sensitive Markers of Suicide Risk
Authors: Glenn Jeffrey J , Nobles Alicia , Barnes Laura , Teachman Bethany
Published: February 2019

Objective tools to assess suicide risk are needed to determine when someone is at imminent risk. This pilot laboratory investigation utilized a within-subjects design to identify patterns in text messaging (SMS) unique to high-risk periods preceding suicide attempts. Individuals reporting a history of suicide attempt (N=33) retrospectively identified past attempts and periods of lower risk (e.g., suicide ideation). Language analysis software scored 189,478 text messages to capture three psychological constructs: self-focus, sentiment, and social engagement. Mixed-effects models tested whether these constructs differed in general (means) and over time (slopes) two weeks before a suicide attempt, relative to lower-risk periods. Regarding mean differences, no language features uniquely differentiated suicide attempts from other episodes. However, when examining patterns over time, anger increased and positive emotion decreased to a greater extent as one approached a suicide attempt. Results suggest personal electronic communication has the potential to provide real-time markers of suicide risk.

Patterns bit by bit. An Entropy Model for Rule Induction
Authors: Radulescu Silvia , Wijnen Frank , Avrutin Sergey
Published: February 2019

From limited evidence, children track the regularities of their language impressively fast and they infer generalized rules that apply to novel instances. This study investigated what triggers the inductive leap from memorizing specific items and statistical regularities to extracting abstract rules. We propose an innovative entropy model that offers one consistent information-theoretic account for both learning the regularities in the input and generalizing to new input. The model predicts that rule induction is an encoding mechanism triggered by the discrepancy between input complexity (entropy) and the encoding power of the human brain (channel capacity). In two artificial grammar experiments with adults we probed the effect of input complexity on rule induction. Results showed that as the input entropy increases, the tendency to infer abstract rules increases gradually.

Authors: Casey Kevin , Argo Roberto , Bianco Albert
Published: February 2019

Background & Purpose: The prevalence of acute pancreatitis(AP) has increased over time and is one of the most important gastrointestinal causes of frequent admissions to hospital in the United States. The cost burden of AP has been steadily increasing. The primary objective of our study was to analyze patient demographics, cost burden, mortality and length of stay associated with AP hospital admissions.Methods: Nationwide inpatient sample (NIS) database was used to identify AP admissions in all patients from ≥18 years of age from 2001 to 2014 using ICD-9-CM code 577.0 as the principal discharge diagnosisResults: The number of hospitalizations increased from 215,238 in 2001 to 279,145 in 2014. In-hospital mortality decreased from 1.74% in 2001 to 0.66% in 2014. Mean length of hospital stay has decreased from 6.1 days to 4.6 days during the same period, but the mean hospital charges increased from $19,303 in 2001 to $35,728 in 2014. The proportion of males to females with acute pancreatitis is slowly trending up from 2001 to 2014. Conclusion: The number of hospitalizations due to acute pancreatitis has been steadily increasing, and further research needs to be done on finding out the reasons for increased causes of hospitalization and ways to decrease the cost burden on patients and hospitals.

The Intersection of Youth Masculinities, Decreasing Homophobia and Class: An Ethnography
Authors: McCormack Mark
Published: February 2019

This article examines the emergence of progressive attitudes toward homosexuality among working-class boys in a sixth form in the south of England to develop an intersectional analysis of class, youth masculinities and decreasing homophobia. Drawing on three months of ethnographic data collection, I find that working-class male youth intellectualize pro-gay attitudes and that homophobic language is almost entirely absent from the setting. I document the presence of homosocial tactility, as well as the valuing of friendship and emotional closeness. However, these behaviours are less pronounced than documented among middle-class boys, and I use these findings to advance understanding of how class influences the development of inclusive attitudes and behaviours. Inclusive masculinity theory is used to understand these findings, refining the theory and extending it to a new demographic.
The Consequences of Incarceration for Mortality in the United States
Authors: Daza Sebastian , palloni alberto , Jones Jerrett
Published: February 2019

Previous research suggests that incarceration has negative implications for individuals’ well-being, health, and mortality. Most of these studies, though, do not follow former prisoners over extended periods of time and into older adult ages when it is more likely that cumulative consequences of incarceration will be felt. This paper contributes to this literature by employing for the first time the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID) to estimate the long-run association between individual incarceration and mortality over nearly 40 years, and supplementing those analyses with the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979 (NLSY79). We then use these estimates to investigate the implications of the US incarceration regime and the post-1980 incarceration boom for the US health and mortality disadvantage relative to industrialized peer countries (the United Kingdom).
Hydropower Policy and Site-Level Contestation under the Political Transition: Challenges for Ending the Power Cut in Nepal
Authors: Dhungana Hari , Maskey Gyanu
Published: February 2019

The growing optimism for hydropower development in Nepal over the past few years faces significant bottlenecks amid the country’s political transition. The government’s policies to attract more and more investment in new hydropower projects face the challenge of retaining investors and bringing projects to success, as considerable confusion and uncertainty exist around environmental and social-political demands on the projects. Ongoing political transition retains and harbours greater grey area for local and indigenous rights, labor issues, grievance handling, site-level decision-making, and responding to the widespread resort to obstructionism, blockages, and strikes. This paper draws on the evidence and insights from the case study of hydropower project in Western Nepal and a series of meetings in Kathmandu with water sector stakeholders to identify key challenges for the development and implementation of hydropower projects in terms of physical and social impacts. To achieve policy goals on hydropower development, it is essential to have policy-legal clarity on the above issues in a manner that is understood and legitimated by local stakeholders, and internalized into decision-system at the local level. These conditions will be rendered feasible only with the end of ongoing political transition in favour of a stable, transparent and democratic polity in the country.

We interviewed visitors (n=60) to assess their satisfaction level with the services they are offered. Homestay income was found to have contributed more to the poor households than to the richer ones. Social contributions included increase in community pride, women empowerment and improved community relationship. The contribution in environmental sector was mainly the increase in environmental education and plantation activities. Visitors (n=60) were more satisfied with the hospitality and culture and least satisfied with the available means of communication. Linear regression models did not show any significant effect of age, sex and prior experience of visitors with homestay program on their overall satisfaction score which ranged from –10 to +10 (βage= -0.003±0.02; βsex.male= 0.003 ±0.02; βfirst.time=- 0.003 ±0.02). Linking the home stay village with markets (e.g., travel agencies) and capacity building training for the homestay owners on management and marketing could be crucial to increase socio-economic and environmental outcomes of the homestay.

Air merupakan salah satu sumber kehidupan yang sangat penting. Seiring meningkatnya populasi penduduk maka keperluan untuk memenuhi kebutuhan sehari-hari seperti minum, memasak, mencuci pakaian, mandi cuci kakus (MCK) dan lain sebagainya juga meningkat. Hal ini tidak diimbangi oleh kesadaran masyarakat untuk melakukan penghematan air. Salah satu cara untuk melakukan penghematan air yaitu dengan memonitoring debit air yang dikonsumsi perbulannya. PDAM merupakan perusahaan daerah yang memberikan jasa penyediaan air kepada seluruh penduduk masyarakat Indonesia yang membutuhkan. PDAM mengecek jumlah penggunaan air pada masing-masing pelanggan setiap bulan dengan mengirimkan petugas ke rumah pelanggan untuk mengecek dan mencatat jumlah penggunaan air melalui meter air. Meter air yang digunakan PDAM masih bersifat analog sehingga pelanggan mengalami kesulitan dalam pembacaan jumlah penggunaan air. Karena cara pengecekan yang masih bersifat manual dan alat yang masih bersifat analog, maka penulis merancang suatu alat yang dapat memonitoring penggunaan air secara digital dan online yang dapat diakses melalui smartphone secara real time. Sehingga Masyarakat akan mengetahui jumlah penggunaan air setiap harinya. Alat ini dirancang menggunakan sensor flow water yang akan mengukur debit air yang mengalir ke pipa dan hasil pengukuran akan diolah oleh mikrokontroler NodeMCU. Data akan diolah dan ditampilkan pada LCD serta dapat diakses juga melalui smartphone.

Dalam praktek kehidupan bernegara sejak masa awal kemerdekaan hingga hari ini, ternyata pemahaman demokrasi saat ini di Indonesia terdiri dari beberapa model demokrasi perwakilan yang berbeda satu dengan lainnya. Sejak era reformasi, ada perubahan politik yang signifikan di Indonesia. Melihat implementasi demokrasi di era reformasi ini sering disebut sebagai masa-masa euforia kebebasan, kita harus jujur dan rela merupakan cara untuk mengembangkan demokrasi kita yang tidak sehat, sehingga konsep demokrasi yang berulang kali kita kembangkan itu dapat meningkatkan situasi dan segera membawa bangsa ini keluar Dari krisis multidimensi yang terjadi, bahkan ada tanda-tanda semakin memperburuk situasi. Ayat Al-Qur'an yang berhubungan dengan demokrasi adalah QS.Ali Imran 159. Sementara di dalam Al Qur'an membahas musyawarah di QS.Ash-Shuraa: 38. Diskusi tentang konsep demokrasi pada akhirnya menuntun umat Islam untuk bergerak maju dan mengimplementasikan garis besar Qur'an dan Sunnah Nabi dan praktek masyarakat yang ada di zaman Nabi dan Sahabat-Sahabatnya. Penggalian demokrasi itu penting dan relevan karena dalam Al Qur'an dan kehidupan Nabi dan Muslim sebelum kita ada dalam kehidupan masyarakat yang adil, beradab dan menjunjung tinggi nilai persaudaraan yang dapat dipertanggungjawabkan dalam kehidupan sosial di Indonesia.
Usporedba samoprocjene glasa nastavnika i službenika

Samoprocjena glasa pomoću upitnika Indeks vokalnih teškoća (Voice Handicap Index, VHI) jednostavna je i pouzdana trijažna metoda u dijagnostici poremećaja glasa, posebno u skupinama glasovnih profesionalaca koji su podložniji poremećajima. U ovome radu predstavljena je analiza rezultata samoprocjene glasa nastavnika i službenika. Uzorak čine dvije grupe ispitanika: nastavnici (N=93) i službenici (N=19). Skupine su ujednačene prema dobi, godinama staža i spolu. Prema rezultatima samoprocjene, potvrđeni su poremećaji glasa kod 26 % nastavnika, dok je njih 67 % u anamnezi imalo poremećaje glasa. U skupini službenika samoprocjenom 10 % ispitanika ima teškoća s glasom, u anamnezi je njih 36 % imalo poremećaj glasa. Samo dvoje nastavnika je zbog teškoća s glasom potražilo stručnu pomoć. Potvrđena je prediktivnost dobi i radnoga staža kao negativnog čimbenika, koji može dovesti do poremećaja glasa nastavnika. Rezultati istraživanja potvrđuju veći rizik poremećaja glasa u skupini glasovnih profesionalaca. Zabrinjavajuće je da gotovo nitko od nastavnika s poremećajima glasa ne traži stručnu pomoć. Dobiveni podaci, kao i u prijašnjim istraživanjima, trebali bi biti poticaj uvrštavanju glasovne edukacije u obrazovanje nastavnika, te primjena načela glasovne higijene tijekom svakodnevnoga rada.
Flies, Wasps, and Gadflies: The Role of Insect Similes in Homer, Aristophanes, and Plato
Authors: Harris John P.
Published: February 2019

This article examines how Plato, influenced by epic and comedy, uses the gadfly simile to elicit heroic qualities not typically associated with this insect. The majority of Homer’s animal similes liken heroes to nobler animals such as lions or boars, while a few compare them to less heroic creatures such as flies or wasps. Yet Homer can also use these insects to highlight a hero’s martial prowess and valour. In his Wasps Aristophanes primarily uses the wasp as a symbol of irascibility, but can also use it to symbolize staunch defence against enemies external and internal. Plato deliberately conflates these heroic and comedic strands within his gadfly simile, thus taking advantage not only of the insect’s obvious blameworthy features, but also of its surprisingly praiseworthy ones, and so forges an enduring and unforgettable icon, the Socratic gadfly.
Can Carbides resist Nitriding?*
Authors: Leunis E. , Gauvin M.
Published: February 2019

The behaviour of Me-carbides during nitriding without compound layer was studied on ternary Fe-C-Me model alloys, with Me representing Ti, Nb, Cr, Mo or V. The behaviour strongly depends on the amount of nitride forming element in solid solution during the nitriding treatment and on the coarseness of the initial carbides. This is reflected in the realized N-contents, the presence and morphology of Fe-nitrides and the resulting hardness increase after nitriding. Even in the case of strong nitride forming elements (e. g. Ti), efficient nitriding cannot be performed with the tested nitriding conditions, if these elements are bound in coarse carbides. This illustrates the relevance of a specific alloy design and prior heat treatment for nitriding steels.
DETERMINATION OF VOLUMETRIC CONTRACTION AND DRYING KINETICS OF THE DRYED BANANA
Authors: De Souza Lucas Fernandes , De Andrade Ednilton Tavares , Rios Paula De Almeida
Published: February 2019

Banana (Musa spp.) is one of the most nutritious and consumed fruits, especially in tropical countries. The drying of the fruit is an alternative against the injuries suffered, mainly during the post-harvest process. Thus, the knowledge of the physical properties of the product that is intended to be processed has a big importance for the dimensioning of equipment. Therefore, the objective of this work was to study the drying kinetics of the banana, transforming it into dried banana, besides evaluating the volumetric contraction suffered during drying. The bananas were dried in an oven at temperatures of 70, 60 and 50 ºC. The volumetric measurements were carried out before and after drying to determine the volumetric contraction during the process. After drying, the experimental data were modeled by nonlinear regression analysis by the Quase-Newton method, to adjust 4 mathematical models of moisture ratio and 5 mathematical models of volumetric contraction. Among the models tested, the best fit for the prediction of the Moisture Ratio was the exponential model, and for the Volumetric Contraction was the modified BALA and WOOD model.
‘World literature’ as a problem and challenge
Authors: Shaytanov I. O.
Published: February 2019

The article focuses on the conception, transformation, and operation of the term ‘world literature’, including its historical origins and modern problematics. When meaning is problematized, and the reality of world history is radically revised, the changes cannot but affect the derivative phenomenon of world literature, where historical challenges give rise to the need for reconstruction of its very concept and clarification of its components (language, culture, nation, and territory), as well as of the nature of their connection. The author distinguishes between world, or global, literature, on the one hand, and globalization, multiculturalism, and other concepts, on the other. He argues that cultural references in a ‘post-national’ world are doomed, and that world literature, rather than neutralizing cultural differences, should identify and define them, also by comparison.
Renе Descartes and Jean-Louis Guez de Balzac in the context of intellectual libertinism
Authors: Fokin S. I.
Published: February 2019

The article attempts to analyze the relationship between Renе Descartes and Jean-Louis Guez de Balzac. The study focuses on one of the most amazing episodes of 17th-century French literature, when philosophers, following Descartes, were transitioning to the use of the vernacular, while writers, including de Balzac, were experimenting with new forms of expression, favouring the epistolary genre, among other things. The episode is even more significant because it begins with a young Descartes’ little known reflections on de Balzac’sLetters[Lettres]: published in 1624, the latter provoked one of the century’s most vociferous public disputes. At the same time, the notes provide a good starting point for discussion of a highly controversial topic of the philosopher’s legacy, namely, his ties with 17th-century intellectual libertinism, epitomized by de Balzac, as well as his hostile opponent, the preeminent French poet Thеophile de Viau. The study mainly suggests that, despite certain differences, the philosopher tends to share the two authors’ views of the greatness and freedom of the human self.
