Unpacking the Class Struggle in Emily Dickinson’s Because I Could Not Stop for Death: A Marxist Analysis
Authors: Jakhrani Muhammad Haroon
Published: January 2024

This research paper explores a Marxist analysis of Emily Dickinson’s Because I could not stop for Death. This research takes a qualitative approach, which will involve a close reading of Dickinson’s poem to identify instances that reflect Marxist ideology. Drawing on the concepts of exploitation, alienation, and class-consciousness, this paper demonstrates how the poem can be read as a critique of the capitalist system, which serves the interests of the ruling elite at the expense of the proletariat. The poem’s central metaphor of Death as the controlling force behind the journey underscores the coercive and suppressive nature of the bourgeois regime. The imagery of the sights and sounds encountered enroute likewise symbolizes the exploitation of the working class for the benefit of the capitalist class. Ultimately, the speaker’s final realization of the ongoing struggle and the need for revolutionary struggle highlights the Marxist ideals of revolutionary consciousness as a vital component of class resistance. While this paper is limited in scope and depth, it offers a unique perspective on the significance of one of Dickinson’s most famous poems as a social critique of the dominant political and economic structure of its time.

Authors: Ledinek Nina , Michelizza Mija
Published: January 2024

This paper presents the treatment of determinologized lexemes in the most recent growing monolingual general explanatory dictionary for Slovenian—Slovar slovenskega knjižnega jezika, 3. izdaja (Dictionary of the Slovenian Standard Language, 3rd Edition), or eSSKJ—while also drawing attention to conceptual differences in the understanding of the status of this vocabulary compared to previous editions of the dictionary (SSKJ and SSKJ2) and according to the treatment of terminology in the terminological dictionaries of the ZRC SAZU Fran Ramovš Institute of the Slovenian Language. It focuses on specific lexicographic issues that arise due to determinologization when dealing with this relatively extensive and hybrid segment of vocabulary in eSSKJ, addressing it from two points of view. It draws attention to the issues that editors face due to lexicographic requirements. At the same time, it presents issues and reservations external terminology consultants have as experts in individual subject fields when reviewing dictionary entries for determinologized vocabulary. Due to the specific nature of the work, both types of issues sometimes overlap.
The Terms We Share or Don’t Want to Share
Authors: Nahod Bruno , Vukša Nahod Perina
Published: January 2024

Through the decades of working on processing Croatian terminology in STRUNA we have identified two problems that can generate an extremely confusing situation for the end-user. On the one hand, we have homonyms, where the same term is used to indicate multiple concepts. This problem was anticipated since it is well-known that certain terms can have different or slightly different meanings in various fields of knowledge or even in the same field. We handle the homonyms by allowing multiple entries in STRUNA. On the other hand, fairly often, we come upon the case where a new entry was introduced into STRUNA even though the term with a semantically identical definition already existed. In anticipation of this problem, we have, from the very beginning of STRUNA, implemented the option of accepting the existing terminological entry and associating it with the ongoing project. Unfortunately, for various reasons, editors rarely use this feature. Therefore, this issue will have to be addressed in the future. In this paper, we will present these problems experienced by the end-user of STRUNA and suggest possible solutions implemented in a certain project (field) and/or interfiled solutions.

Musculoskeletal and connective tissue diseases which include around 150 different diseases represent a growing public health problem. This large group of diseases is often associated with the onset of mental illness, other chronic diseases and increased mortality. During the COVID-19 pandemic patients with musculoskeletal diseases were facing several challenges, such as medicine shortages, poor access to regular health services, particularly in developing countries. The present paper provides an overview of the situation in the field of musculoskeletal health of the population in Slovenia, based on data from regular health statistics, for a 5-year period, from 2017 to 2021. The retrospective-observational research was performed on the basis of data collected at the Slovenian National Institute of Public Health (NIJZ) and the Institute for Health Insurance (ZZZS). The COVID-19 pandemic, which marked the studied 5-year period, undoubtedly had an impact on musculoskeletal health in Slovenia. The results of our study showed a decrease in the rate of curative visits due to musculoskeletal diseases, both at the primary and secondary level of health care, a decrease in the number of issued prescriptions for medicines for the treatment of musculoskeletal diseases, a decrease in the rate of hospital treatment and longer sick leave.

Published: January 2024

This work presents the results of cytogenetic analysis performed during the period 1990-2021. The work focuses on cytogenetic analysis of selected diseases that represent a serious medical and social problem in the Prešov region of eastern Slovakia. The analysis also included the determination of cytogenetic and molecular-genetic marker frequency related to selected clinical genetic diseases in a specified population of Roma ethnicity. Chromosome analysis confirmed a wide spectrum of chromosomal aberrations in patients with Down’s syndrome and Turner syndrome, revealing a spectrum of aberrations from monosomy X, isochromosome Xq, and deletions Xp to marker chromosomes. Chromosomal aberrations cause 5.5% of fertility disorders in couples, with numerical and structural chromosomal aberrations found in 2.1 and 3.4% respectively, revealing a risk finding for offspring of carriers of balanced translocations. Microdeletions, combined microdeletions (AZFb,c) and complete deletion of the AZF region of the Y chromosome were found in men diagnosed with azoospermia. In addition, pathological karyotypes were detected in men and women (13 and 10%). Another set of analyses in patients with onco-haematological diseases revealed presence of Philadelphia chromosome (Ph1) in 94.4% of patients with chronic myeloid leukaemia, complex translocation of chromosomes 8, 9, 22; mosaic karyotype of Ph1. Chromosomal aberrations in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome also included also atypical and as yet unpublished cytogenetic markers. Myeloproliferative diseases were detected in 28.3% of patients with heterogenous chromosomal aberrations. Revelations from cytogenetic analysis enable improvement in the efficiency of health care, diagnostics, therapeutic significance and prognosis of affected people in the majority population and Roma minority in this region of Slovakia.

Le songe d'une nuit d'automne

Tant pis pour la noblesse du propos scientifique qui s’interdit l’autocitation… Il y a bientôt 12 ans, dans l’éditorial du numéro 100 d’exercer, je m’émerveillais des promesses d’un soir d’été qui voyait éclore, en même temps que la filière universitaire de médecine générale, une belle communauté de femmes et d’hommes pleins d’élan et d’enthousiasme1. C’était là le Congrès du CMGF à Nice, c’est ici celui du CNGE à Lyon, mais qu’importe le flacon… Et qu’importe encore que l’ivresse s’accorde mal avec les injonctions déclinées le jour même par la représentante de la HAS, venue nous expliquer avec force chiffres que de tels comportements n’étaient pas très bons pour la santé. Une trentaine d’entre nous sont présents à cette soirée – comme d’autres trentaines, sans doute, ailleurs dans la ville – de la plus jeune interne à son premier congrès au professeur vieillissant qui n’a plus rien d’autre à prouver que d’être jeune encore un peu… La communauté qui naissait à Nice se retrouve depuis chaque année, et s’enrichit, et continue à se renforcer, et se moque gentiment que, mal renseigné sans doute sur sa maturité, quelque brillant représentant du peuple se soit félicité cette après-midi de son « émergence ». Ses retrouvailles sont scientifiques, bien sûr, et dans ce domaine la qualité a progressé géométriquement depuis les premiers pas de la filière, pour atteindre aujourd’hui un niveau d’exigence et une hauteur d’engagement qui commence à faire frémir certains de ceux qui regardait avec commisération ses premiers efforts. Ses retrouvailles sont pédagogiques, évidemment, et la médecine générale, autrefois pionnière dans ce domaine, est aujourd’hui devenue autorité, et même inspiration pour d’autres spécialités. Mais ce ne sont pas ces aspects qui me frappent ce soir. C’en est un que je n’ai pas cru percevoir dans les autres communautés professionnelles que j’ai pu rencontrer, et qu’il n’est pas facile de décrire, et encore moins de nommer, sans sombrer dans la mièvrerie… Bien sûr, il y a le besoin de relâcher enfin la pression qui nous tient toute l’année. Bien sûr, il y a l’envie naturelle de faire la fête puisqu’on se retrouve. Bien sûr, il y a des taux sanguins habituellement considérés comme excessifs de substances désinhibantes diverses. Mais pas seulement. Il y a aussi et surtout l’envie de rire ensemble de tout, parce qu’on est entre nous.

Published: January 2024

Sungai Ciujung diketahui memiliki morfologi sungai meander yang memiliki banyak tikungan. Hal tersebut menyebabkan beberapa titik sungai rawan mengalami erosi. Pada Januari 2023, bantaran Sungai Ciujung yang terletak di Desa Bojong Catang mengalami longsor akibat erosi yang menyebabkan kerusakan pada beberapa rumah warga dan mengancam pemukiman di sekitarnya. Maka dari itu, diperlukan suatu penanganan guna mencegah terjadinya erosi. Krib merupakan salah satu struktur sungai yang berfungsi untuk mengatur arah aliran pada belokan sungai sekaligus melindungi tebing sungai terhadap erosi. Studi ini akan melakukan pengujian beberapa alternatif desain krib pada bantaran sungai Desa Bojong Catang. Simulasi dalam studi ini dilakukan dengan menggunakan debit banjir periode ulang 25 tahun yaitu dengan debit puncak sebesar 1538,10 m3/s. Pengujian dilakukan menggunakan pemodelan numerik dengan bantuan perangkat lunak HEC-RAS 6.2 guna mengetahui kecepatan aliran pada tikungan luar sungai.

Education is not only the main pillar of nation-building, but through education, a nation moves towards progress. In a country, with different races of people, both men and women became uplifted towards development when illuminated by education. By the united force of men and women, especially women, a country leads its way to the path of success. Women’s empowerment is a necessity for this success. Again, education is the most powerful instrument of empowerment as it generates consciousness that leads to empowerment. Hence, to pave the way for women’s emancipation and empowerment, education plays a pivotal and inevitable role. According to Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru –"If you teach a male, you educate an individual If you educate a lady, you educate an entire family.” Women who are educated and empowered succeed in society, business, and family life. So, Women empowerment refers to increasing women's social, economic, and educational power. It refers to an environment where there is no gender bias and equal rights in the community, society, and workplaces. Today, according to the GOI report, the male literacy rate is currently at 84%, while the female literacy rate is less than 70%. Again, the most recent labor force surveys conducted by the NSSO (National Sample Survey Office) published the female worker population ratio (%) on a status basis in the country during 2013-14 and 2015-16 are 29.6% and 25.8% respectively. Education helps women become aware of their rights, dignity, and opportunities. It gives them the chance to make a more meaningful decision in terms of political engagement and decision-making choices about life. Thus, education can benefit from building self-confidence, self-efficiency, and decision-making power and increasing gender parity in an organization or institution
