Exceso y pecado: características de la ὕβρις en el Pseudo Justino Mártir
Authors: Blanch Carlos
Published: November 2021

El mundo griego clásico condenó claramente la conducta desmesurada. Ejemplos de esto pueden hallarse en las obras de los grandes escritores clásicos, en una gradación que parte de la simple fanfarronería hasta acabar en el nivel más grave, la soberbia contra los dioses. Los escritos del Pseudo-Justino Mártir rescatan el concepto clásico de ὕβρις, resignificándolo para censurar a quienes se oponían a la ortodoxia cristiana.
El valor temporal del sintagma preposicional latino regido por cum: aproximaciones desde la teoría del lexicón generativo
Authors: Gallardo Berg Marina Anabella
Published: November 2021

Este trabajo busca contribuir a la descripción del sintagma preposicional latino introducido por cum en contextos en que presenta un valor temporal. Exploramos la posibilidad de aplicar el modelo de la Teoría del Lexicón Generativo de Pustejovsky (1995) para explicar los rasgos subléxicos y los mecanismos generativos que habilitan este valor en el SP. Nuestra propuesta de análisis sostiene que el valor temporal es producto de la acción conjunta, generada por el mecanismo de co-composición, de los rasgos [–dinamismo], [–orientación] y [+coexistencia] de la estructura de qualia que presentamos para la preposición cum y los rasgos subléxicos de los nombres eventivos que la preposición toma como complemento.

Published: November 2021

Objectives

To develop a self-report scale to measure academic motivation among nursing students and to test its psychometric properties.

Methods

a cross-sectional validation study with a convenience sample of nursing students (n=1,635) was performed. The Motivation Nursing Students Scale was developed; content, face, construct validity, hypothesis testing and reliability were evaluated.

Results

The validity structure revealed a four-factor solution and the model reached a satisfactory fit (χ2=622.835 df=160, p<0.01, CFI=0.90, TLT=0.83, RMSEA=0.060 (90% [CI] 0.055–0.064, p=0.001, SRMR=0.067). The hypothesis testing was confirmed with a positive correlation of the academic self-efficacy with Introjected, Intrinsic motivation and a negative correlation with Amotivation.

Conclusions

We verified a link between academic self-efficacy and motivation. Both motivation and self-efficacy may increase academic achievement and the possibility for HEIs to degrees a number of students in line with demands.
Anti-sway method for reducing vibrations on a tower crane structure
Authors: Caporali Roberto P. L.
Published: November 2021

We develop a solution to the problem of the behavior of a tower crane considered as a deformable system, and therefore subject to vibrations, whereas the controlled movement of a payload is implemented. The motion of the payload is calculated taking into account the normal vibration modes of the tower crane and the swaying of the payload. A “command smoothing” method relative to an open-loop system is used for reducing the sway of the payload, through smoothing the original command by the crane operator. This leads, as a consequence, to a reduction in the vibrations of the crane structure. An iterative calculation of the sway angle and the corresponding applied velocity profiles as input to the crane motors is applied. The tower crane is considered as a high nonlinear underactuated system; it is modeled considering the possible deformation of the structure. The results relating to the normal deformations of the crane are obtained, highlighting how these vibrations are strongly attenuated when an anti-sway system for the payload is implemented. Therefore, it is shown how this control leads to the best results in terms of performance for both the payload movement (shortest possible profile for the rotation movement and damping of the load oscillation) and the structure of the tower crane. Applying the method described in this paper, the structure of the tower crane does not undergo the strong horizontal and vertical oscillations that occur when the elastic structure is not considered in the crane model.

Published: November 2021

The spectroscopic characteristics of a bipolar, overstressed discharge of nanosecond duration between zinc electrodes in oxygen at a pressure p(O2) = 13.3 kPa are presented. In the process of microexplosions of inhomogeneities on the working surfaces of the electrodes in a strong electric field, zinc vapor is introduced into the discharge gap. This creates the prerequisites for the formation of zinc oxide molecules and clusters in the plasma and the synthesis of thin island zinc oxide films, which can be deposited on a dielectric substrate installed near the center of the discharge gap. The spectral characteristics of the discharge were investigated from the central part of the discharge gap 2 mm in size. The main excited components of the plasma of a vapor-gas mixture based on zinc and oxygen were established at high values ​​of the parameter E / N (where E is the electric field strength; N is the total concentration of particles in the plasma), which, when deposited outside the discharge plasma, can lead to the formation of fine nanostructured films based on zinc oxide.

Published: November 2021

Oils extracted from Cymbopogon citratus, Lantana camara, Artemisia camphorata, and Imperata cylindrica plants were used as potential insecticides against the rice weevil, Sitophilus oryzae (L.) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae). The phytochemical composition of the isolated oils was identified by gas chromatograph-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Oil contact toxicities were evaluated against the adults of S. oryzae. The activities of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and transaminases enzymes (AST) were measured. L. camara oil (LC50 = 9.81 mg/cm2) demonstrated the highest effect, followed by C. citratus oil (LC50 = 10.89 mg/cm2), A. camphorata EO (LC50 = 16.12 mg/cm2), and I. cylindrica oil (LC50= 36.85 mg/cm2) against the adults of S. oryzae. The inhibition percentages of AChE were 38.8, 41.7, 35.0, and 27.2%; ALP were 42.4, 49.3, 28.1, and 18.7%; AST were 33.9, 38.7, 20.8, and 11.8%; and ALT were 22.7, 30.5, 14.6, and 9.6% after treated S. oryzae with oils from C. citratus, L. camara, A. camphorata and I. cylindrica, respectively. The highest abundant compounds in C. citratus were geranial (25.95%), nerylacetal (8.85%), and neral (8.45%), in L. camara were caryophyllene (12.2%), and 3-elemene (8.89%), in A. camphorata were germacrene D-4-ol (20.83%), and borneol (19.47%), and in I. cylindrica were 5-phenylundecane (10.68%), and 6-phenyldodecane (8.70%).
Impacts of forest cover on surface runoff quality in small catchments
Authors: Trenčiansky Marek , Šterbová Martina , Výbošťok Jozef , Lieskovský Martin
Published: November 2021

Forest cover influences not only the amount of surface runoff, but also its quality. The concentrations of chemicals in surface runoff differ between forest catchments and non-forest catchments (agricultural areas). The authors investigated the chemical compositions of surface runoff in two small neighboring catchments (forest, non-forest), by analyzing and summarizing data over a period of 26 years from 1986 to 2012. During this period, the stock and absorption area of forest stands increased, air quality improved, the agricultural landscape was partly regenerated, and global climate change became apparent. The authors observed differences in surface runoff between forest- and non-forest catchments. However, these differences were not mainly caused by the influence of the forest cover, but by changes in agricultural land management. Since 2006, agricultural land has been managed without the use of artificial fertilizers, which reduced the contents of pollutants in surface runoff from the non-forest catchment. The existence of the forest as such excludes or noticeably eliminates the use of fertilizers and chemical substances that affect water quality.

Published: November 2021

Effects of fertilization with digestate from agricultural biogas plant and its influence on growth and selected physiological parameters of maize, triticale, and sorghum plants cultivated for biogas production were studied in this work. The digestate was used as an organic fertilizer, being a substitute or supplement to mineral fertilization. The fertilization with the digestate had a positive effect on the fresh matter yield (FMY) of sorghum (85.4 Mg ha-1), the dry matter content (DM) of maize (41.9%) and sorghum (23.6%), as well as on the dry matter yield (DMY) of triticale (12.2 Mg ha-1) and sorghum (19.8 Mg ha-1). Among the studied species, the maize fertilized with digestate (variants N2 and N3) showed better growth responses compared to the maize that was fertilized with mineral fertilizers (plant nutrition status – SPAD of 54.8). No significant influence of fertilization variant was observed on the photosynthetic active radiation (PAR) and the leaf area index (LAI) of the tested plant species. The digestate proved to be a good fertilizer, supporting high yields without adverse effects on the physiological parameters of the plants.

Published: November 2021

As heat-treated wood has an ever-increasing application, the research of its machining is the subject of many studies. This article investigated the technical, technological, material, and tool-related factors that influence the quality of the machined surface (average roughness Ra) and energy consumption during the process of planar milling of heat-treated meranti wood. The experimental measurements were performed on samples that were treated by four methods at temperatures of 160 °C, 180 °C, 200 °C, and 220 °C. One sample was in its natural state. The cutting conditions were as follows: feed rates 6 m × min-1, 10 m × min-1, and 15 m × min-1, cutting speeds of 20 m × s-1, 40 m × s-1, and 60 m × s-1, and tool rake angles of 20°, 25°, and 30°. Experimental measurement of the surface roughness was performed using an LPM – 4 profilometer. Individual measurements of cutting power were performed via a frequency converter. The experiments determined the effects of the individual parameters on surface roughness in the following order: rake angle, heat treatment of the material, feed rate, and cutting speed. The effects of observed parameters on energetic efficiency were in the order: cutting speed, feed rate, rake angle, and heat treatment.

Published: November 2021

A bio-based wood adhesive formulation free of formaldehyde and made from alkali-treated wheat gluten (WG) and sodium alginate (SA) was developed. Its formulation was optimised, and it was characterised by Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The bio-adhesive was utilized to make particleboards both with virgin wood particles and recycled wood particles. A dry bio-adhesive content of 35% (w/w) was used to make samples with both type of particles. Single-layer samples of 10 mm thickness were obtained using wood particles of 1 mm (both virgin and recycled). These samples then were subjected to 3-point bending tests. Whereas the bending strength of samples made with recycled wood particles was 18.09 N/m2 and therefore satisfied Type 18 of the Japanese industrial standards (JIS A 5908:2015), the bending strength of the samples made with virgin wood particles was 8.08 N/m2 and satisfied ‘Type 8 Base particleboard Decorative particleboard’ of the Japanese standards. The density of particleboard samples made from recycled wood particles was 916 kg/m3, while that of samples made from virgin wood particles was 732 kg/m3. The alkali-treated WG and SA bio-adhesive has the potential to be used to re-manufacture particleboards, which can then be recycled and not disposed in landfills.
Intertextuális utalások II-III. századi phrygiai sírfeliratokon
Authors: Grüll Tibor
Published: November 2021

A Közép-Anatóliában fekvő Phrygia nagy történelmi múlttal, sajátos nyelvvel és kultúrával rendelkező térség volt a Római Birodalomban, ahol az írásbeliséget és az irodalmi műveltséget igen sokra becsülték. A Kr. u. II–IV. század közötti időszakból több száz görög nyelvű epigráﬁai emlék maradt ránk, amely mindezt tanúsítja. A síremlékeken feltűnően nagy számban ábrázoltak írótáblákat, tolltartókat és papirusztekercseket, és sehol másutt nem került elő ennyi verses sírfelirat, melyeknek szinte mindegyike zsúfolásig tele van homérosi reminiszcenciákkal és klasszikus mitológiai utalásokkal. Mindez ráadásul nemcsak a városok, hanem a rurális területek lakói – többnyire egyszerű földművesek és állattenyésztők – körében is egyformán jellemző. Az epikus nyelven fogalmazott verses epitáﬁumok a görög–római vallás hívei és a keresztények között is népszerűek voltak. Az utóbbiak természetesen bibliai idézetekkel és allúziókkal is bővítették irodalmi repertoárjukat, ráadásul már nagyjából másfél száz évvel a konstantini vallásbéke előtti időszakban.

Phrygia in Central Anatolia was an area with a rich historical heritage, its own language, and particular culture within the Roman Empire, where literacy and literary education was highly valued. All this is witnessed by hundreds of Greek epitaphs that have come down to us from the period between the second and fourth centuries A.D. A strikingly large number of these funerary monuments depict writing tablets, styluses, pen cases and papyrus scrolls; and nowhere else have so many metrical epitaphs been preserved in the territory of the whole Empire, ﬁlled with Homeric reminiscences and classical mythological references. Besides, this is equally typical of the inhabitants of urban and rural areas – simple farmers and stockbreeders – as well. Poetic epitaphs in an epic language were popular among both the devotees of the Greco-Roman religion and Christians. And naturally, the latter expanded their literary repertoire with Biblical quotations and allusions as early as 150 years prior to the religious peace of Constantine’s reign.

Although the issue of the coronavirus pandemic has temporarily overridden discussions on the impacts of climate change on tourism, they have not lost their relevance at all. The exposure of the tourism industry to these effects is indisputable. This study, conducted in 2019–2020, examined the perceptible impacts of climate change that generate further changes, and the issue of climate adaptation involving certain supply-side players in the tourism sector at the local and regional levels. In the questionnaire used to explore the topic, questions were asked about a number of perceptible phenomena and their effects on everyday life, recreational habits, and adaptation. The quantitative surveys involved 1,615 respondents from the Transdanubian region of Hungary (NUTS1/HU2). The results of the research clearly confirm that the problem of climate change is no longer a concern only for scientists, and although the different generations perceive and evaluate the phenomenon differently in many cases, it increasingly affects people’s everyday lives and recreational habits. The perceived effects experienced by the respondents clearly influence the enjoyment of certain tourism product groups (beach holidays, hiking, attending open-air events) and the comfort and satisfaction experienced by individuals.

Published: November 2021

Electron transfer and ion transport occurs over multiple-length scales ranging from the atomic to mesoscale within battery materials and electrodes. Micro-X-ray fluorescence (µ-XRF) is an important characterization tool as it can resolve structural, compositional, and redox information while providing insight into the spatial distribution of an electroactive material. In this work, µ-XRF mapping is used to probe the distribution of iron within thin planar slurry-based and thick porous carbon nanotube (CNT)-based magnetite (Fe3O4) electrodes. Notably, the porous CNT-based electrode showed homogenous distribution of Fe within the electrode whereas the planar electrode demonstrated distinct Fe aggregates. This information was used to rationalize the electrochemistry observed by cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic cycling. The thick porous electrode delivered 215% more capacity per gram of magnetite during the first discharge, consistent with increased electrode homogeneity enabling effective ion access and electron transfer.

Opodatkowanie podatkiem od towarów i usług, usług świadczonych w ramach systemów franczyzowych w świetle genezy, istoty i podstaw prawnych franchisingu
Authors:   Kancelaria Radcy Prawnego Adrian Szlachciński, Kielce, Polska, Drezno Konrad
Published: November 2021

Franchising is a legal relationship originating in medieval Europe that has evolved over the years. The above evolution means that the interpretation of franchising requires constant changes. Carrying out a thorough analysis of the origin, essence and legal basis of franchising is therefore the key to understand this institution and its individual elements, in particular when analysing the taxation aspects of this legal relationship. Importantly, this legal relationship has not been defined in the EU or the national law, but there are legal provisions that define individual elements of franchising, such as know-how. This article, through a method of analysis and critical review of the literature as well as the dogmatic method, aims to present the origins and essence of franchise systems and the legal basis of franchising. As a consequence of the above analysis, an analysis of the taxation aspects of franchising was carried out in the field of taxation of goods and services. While achieving the purpose of the article, the author clearly indicates that services provided under a franchise relationship are subject to goods and services tax at a basic rate. The author also indicates the possibility of making an annual adjustment to the amount of input tax and describes the taxation of the services in question when importing services.

Published: November 2021

ABSTRACT Traditionally, irrigation management has not been used in forest nurseries, compromising the efficiency of the system and the quality of seedlings. In this study, we evaluated the quality of seedlings under different irrigation levels and the substrate composed of pure biosolid, and the initial growth of three Atlantic Forest tree species, produced with automated irrigation management. Four irrigation levels (V1 to V4) were applied by dripping on Schizolobium parahyba (Vell.) Blake, Cytharexyllum myrianthum Chamiáo and Ceiba speciosa Ravenna seedlings. After that, the seedlings were planted to evaluate their early growth in pots. The water was applied in response to species requirement and the volume was measured by water flow sensors, connected to an Arduino MEGA board. Height, collar diameter, leaf area, dry mass and chlorophyll content measurements were used to assess plant development on the seedling and early growth stages. Seedlings that received the highest average volume of water (V4) had a higher rate of growth in height and collar diameter for the three species studied. Despite this, the seedlings that received a smaller volume of water (V1) achieve similar size than V4 ones in pots. The plant growth and quality data, in the two phases analyzed, together with the aggregation of the substrate, indicate that the ideal irrigation level is linked to treatments that received the highest volumes of water (V3 and V4) in the seedling production phase. The results obtained indicate that it is possible to save water and produce seedlings of forest species with quality, ensuring their survival in the field.

ABSTRACT Oxisols are the main soils in Brazil and they classically occur in stable and gentle geomorphic surfaces. However, in the south of Minas Gerais State, Oxisols have been observed under strongly undulated relief, a very rare condition for these soils in this physiographic region. Therefore, this work aimed to assess the elemental dynamics and relief enhanced with portable X-ray fluorescence (pXRF) spectrometry, associated to geomorphology, to understand such occurrence. The studied soils are located in Muzambinho municipality, Minas Gerais State, Brazil. Oxisol profiles were characterized in the upper third (P1), middle third (P2) and lower third (P3) of the hillslope. After morphological description, soil samples were collected in the A, AB and Bo horizons of the profiles. Physical, chemical and pXRF analyses of the soils were carried out in the laboratory. Ti and Fe content (pXRF) had a high correlation with the soil textural fractions. High weathering-leaching degrees were determined, although they occur on a steep slope where younger soils (Inceptisols) would be expected in this region. The altitudinal concordance of summits observed in the more elevated surrounding areas indicates a flat paleorelief, helping to explain this unusual occurrence. The soils’ weathering degree values decreased down the hillslope, indicating silica enrichment through runoff and subsuperficial water flux in the lower landscape positions. The pXRF analyses assisted the characterization of these old soils occurring in steep relief. It provided bases for confirming their high weathering degree indexes and detected evidences of the pre-weathering of the regolith of this very old landscape.

Published: November 2021

Objective: to identify the factors associated with death due to COVID-19 among Brazilian postpartum women in the first five months of the pandemic and five subsequent months, and describe the sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of postpartum women who developed the disease. Method: cross-sectional population-based study using a secondary database available in the Sistema de Informação de Vigilância Epidemiológica da Gripe -SIVEP-Gripe (Influenza Epidemiological Surveillance Information System), Brazilian Ministry of Health. A total of 869 postpartum women were included, and the analysis considered the first five months of the pandemic and subsequent five months. Association between the variables of interest and outcome (death due to COVID-19/cure) was investigated using logistic regression. Results: most participants were aged between 20 and 34, of mixed race or Caucasian, and lived in the urban/peri-urban area. The proportion of deaths was 20.2% in the first period and 11.2% in the second. The likelihood of death increased in both periods due to the presence of respiratory signs and symptoms: dyspnea, respiratory distress, and oxygen saturation below 95%, in addition to the need for ventilatory support and intensive care. Conclusion: the proportion of deaths among postpartum women was high and decreased in the second period under study. Respiratory signs and symptoms, mechanical ventilation, and intensive care were associated with death in both periods.

Este trabajo se propone identificar trayectorias que contribuyen a que jóvenes de sectores populares sean víctimas de un homicidio. Nos ocuparemos de muertes producidas entre personas que mantienen vínculos previos al hecho y que no tienen como motivación cometer un robo u otro delito. El texto documenta y analiza la trayectoria de un joven víctima de este tipo de homicidio desde una perspectiva cualitativa. El trabajo de campo se produjo entre 2011 y 2017 en barrios populares de municipios del conurbano de la provincia de Buenos Aires, Argentina. Sostenemos que en la trayectoria existe un proceso colectivo que agudiza la vulnerabilidad del joven a la agresión letal. En su composición, destacamos acontecimientos clave que restringen las posibilidades de agencia de las víctimas y la conducen a una zona de fragilidad a la muerte en el contexto de la sociabilidad local.

RESUMO Este estudo visa responder aos seguintes questionamentos: quais diretrizes devem ser observadas no desenho da transferência da parcela discricionária da cota-parte do Imposto sobre Operações relativas à Circulação de Mercadorias e sobre Prestações de Serviços de Transporte Interestadual e Intermunicipal e de Comunicação (ICMS) pelos estados aos municípios para se ter melhorias nos resultados da educação? Quais estados possuem leis mais favoráveis a essa mudança legislativa? Os achados indicam que há diretrizes que dependem das leis formuladas - autonomia, equidade, incentivo, simplicidade, focalização e salvaguarda dos objetivos do transferidor - e outras que devem ser compreendidas em um contexto mais amplo em que as leis estaduais se inserem. Assim, é indispensável analisar as particularidades de cada ente para o desenho de transferências que viabilize o alcance dos resultados desejados e não fomente comportamentos indesejados.

Muitas barreiras impedem a defesa da equidade na saúde, especialmente aquelas que dificultam a participação popular. Em meados dos anos 90, Victor Valla propõe a incorporação da participação da população à prática da vigilância em saúde, por meio da educação popular de Paulo Freire. Este contraponto às práticas tradicionais da vigilância, nomeadas vigilância civil da saúde, se somam à concepção ampliada de saúde, e possuem forte ligação com a perspectiva crítica da epidemiologia enquanto meio de compreender a relação dialética entre classes sociais e seus espaços vividos. A prática da vigilância civil pretende superar lacunas importantes deixadas pelos métodos tradicionais de investigação em saúde pública, como falta de atenção aos contextos socioculturais, a construção do risco localizada somente no indivíduo e a representação de agendas de saúde pública que privilegiam e patologizam certos comportamentos.  Neste sentido, o presente trabalho debate o conceito de vigilância civil da saúde, o locus de discussão dos estudos de população na reificação do papel do efeito contextual para a explicação da produção social da saúde e a incorporação da participação popular à vigilância em saúde como elemento de transformação social. O aprofundamento desta discussão, no limite, permite uma construção participativa de novos modelos de saúde focados na redução efetiva das iniquidades em saúde e, consequentemente, universalização efetiva do direito à saúde.
Task-Aware Verifiable RNN-Based Policies for Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes
Authors: Carr Steven , Jansen Nils , Topcu Ufuk
Published: November 2021

Partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) are models for sequential decision-making under uncertainty and incomplete information. Machine learning methods typically train recurrent neural networks (RNN) as effective representations of POMDP policies that can efficiently process sequential data. However, it is hard to verify whether the POMDP driven by such RNN-based policies satisfies safety constraints, for instance, given by temporal logic specifications. We propose a novel method that combines techniques from machine learning with the field of formal methods: training an RNN-based policy and then automatically extracting a so-called finite-state controller (FSC) from the RNN. Such FSCs offer a convenient way to verify temporal logic constraints. Implemented on a POMDP, they induce a Markov chain, and probabilistic verification methods can efficiently check whether this induced Markov chain satisfies a temporal logic specification. Using such methods, if the Markov chain does not satisfy the specification, a byproduct of verification is diagnostic information about the states in the POMDP that are critical for the specification. The method exploits this diagnostic information to either adjust the complexity of the extracted FSC or improve the policy by performing focused retraining of the RNN. The method synthesizes policies that satisfy temporal logic specifications for POMDPs with up to millions of states, which are three orders of magnitude larger than comparable approaches.
Staging Scores: Devising Contemporary Performances from Classical Music
Authors: Pinchbeck Michael David , Egan Kevin
Published: November 2021

In this article, Egan and Pinchbeck combine Postdramatic Theatre (Lehmann, 2006), Composed Theatre (Rebstock and Roesner, 2012) and Score Theatre (Spagnolo, 2017) to address the representation of classical music in two separate contemporary performances they were involved in making. Egan addresses the question of ‘adapting scores’ in relation to Plane Performance’s Traviata (2010), where Verdi’s operatic score became the main ‘text’ from which the company were able to deconstruct and re-imagine the opera as a piece of contemporary theatre; one that celebrated the complexities and subtle nuances of the classical composition and brought a ‘sense’ of the opera to a contemporary theatre audience. The research focusses on the feedback loop between performance score and music score as an additive process of ‘musicalising’ the performance and ‘theatricalising’ the composition. Taking Etchells’ understanding of the interplay between ‘re-enacting and reactivating’ the score (2015) alongside Roesner’s sense of sampling as ‘the transformation of a citation into composable material’ (2016) the research examines the useful exchanges that emerge between the disparate texts of the performance world and the many ‘texts’ present in the music score. Pinchbeck addresses how to ‘stage scores’ by reflecting on Concerto (2016). The research is framed by Ravel’s instruction to conductors to ‘follow the score’ and biographises a piece of music (Concerto for the Left Hand). Using verbatim text, autobiographical and postdramatic devising techniques and archival research, the work advances Rebstock and Roesner’s definition of ‘composed theatre’ (2013) and Adrian Curtin’s ‘orchestral theatre’ (2019) by using music to structure theatre in both form and content. Concerto ‘stages scores’ by creating post-dramatic, post-traumatic performance and de-constructing/de-orchestrating post-conflict narratives around its original composition to reconfigure the relationship between audience and performer into an immersive and embodied ‘theatricalised concert’ (Bonshek, 2006).
Developing the Conceptual Foundations for the Science of Penitentiary (Prison) Law — Prison Studies — as an Independent Branch of Russian Criminal Law (Second Half of the XIX — Beginning of the XX Century)
Authors: Korablin Konstantin , Ostapenko Anna
Published: November 2021

The authors analyze the historical experience of the emergence and development of the science of penitentiary (prison) law — prison studies — as an independent branch of Russian criminal law that was formed in the second half of the 19th — beginning of the 20th centuries. They pay special attention to the institutionalization of the punishment of incarceration whose theoretical foundation was laid by outstanding representatives of Russian pre-revolutionary prison studies. In this historical period, famous legal scholars, practitioners, public figures, political and fiction writers studied problems of the organization and functioning of the Russian prison service, they offered suggestions on its optimization, on improving the effectiveness of its functioning regarding the implementation of the basic principles of punishment for persons who committed illegal actions. It is noted that in the history of Russian criminal law, the institute of punishment was studied by many representatives of legal science and practice who were not only outstanding scholars, but also highly effective organizers of prison work. However even today, in the process of establishing a civilized, humane, international law- and norm-based penitentiary system in Russia, there is an acute lack of complex research which would offer a comprehensive description and characteristic of the contemporary science of penitentiary law that became unofficially known as prison studies in the second half of the 19th — first half of the 20th centuries. Taking into account the historical past of our country, it is evident that a complex approach to researching the fundamental principles of the punishment of incarceration contributes to the further development of Russia legal science, to the objective assessment of the role and place of penitentiary institutions in the system of especially authorized state bodies that possess an exclusive right to counteracting crime. The studied empirical materials allowed the authors to conclude that it is necessary to analyze and widely use this rich historical legacy, which would help contemporary legal research and practice gain new knowledge in a dynamic and consistent way.
Corpus Delicti and the Subject of Proof: to the Discussion of the Relationship Between the Concepts
Authors: Kornakova Svetlana , Zavgorodnevа Ekaterina
Published: November 2021

The authors analyze the opinions of scholars about the correlations between the categories «corpus delicti» and «subject of proof». The main object of their criticism is the idea, supported by some scholars, that the elements of corpus delicti equal the circumstances to be proven that are included in the key fact. The authors use the logical criterion to demonstrate that this claim is unsubstantiated. The circumstances stated in Clauses 1 and 2, Part 1, Art. 73 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation characterize the key features of corpus delicti only conditionally. In this connection, the key fact is the aggregate of factual circumstances that constitutes the basis of corpus delicti.
In the logical aspect, the qualification of a crime is a syllogistic inference, according to which, if the essential features of the action under investigation coincide with the features of the concept of a specific crime as described in criminal law, then this crime becomes the concept of this action. According to the authors, from this standpoint it is possible to discuss not the equivalence of circumstances to be proven and corpus delicti, but only the equivalence of their essential features as determined by criminal law. They point out the specific character of criminal law and process terminology that also does not make it possible to equate the categories «corpus delicti» and «subject of proof».
The significance of the existence of a formulated subject of proof in criminal procedure law and its interconnection with corpus delicti is demonstrated. It is concluded that proof in a criminal case is based on certain knowledge, which performs a methodological function. In this connection, the subject of proof, in the gnoseological sense, is a program of criminal procedure activities determined by the lawmaker. The norms of criminal law determined the parameters of criminal procedure proving, so the subject of proof is based on the criminal law characteristic of the action but does not equal it. The circumstances of the case, determined in the process of proving, are correlated with the norms of criminal law with the purpose of possible criminal law qualification of the action. Corpus delicti, determined in the criminal law, and the subject of proof, formulated in the criminal procedure law, ensure strict certainly and specification of the process of proving carried out by the preliminary investigation bodies and the court.
Fogolytörzskönyv, sajtóvétség és biztosíték.
Authors: Somorjai Szabolcs
Published: November 2021

A Budapesti Királyi Törvényszéki Fogház 1878-as, 577-es számú fogolytörzskönyvi bejegyzése szerint az 52 éves, 171 cm magas, kék szemű, szőkés- őszes hajú, bajszos elítélt az 1878. június 5-én meghozott törvényszéki, sajtóvétség ügyében meghozott ítélet alapján június 6-án nyolc napos elzárásának letöltését megkezdte. A hét gyermeket nevelő, különösebb iskolai végzetség nélküli, héber vallású, németül és franciául (utóbbit csak „kis” fokon) beszélő, büntetlen előéletű férfi az ítélet szerint saját maga állta a börtön költségeit is. Az előző bekezdés összes információja mindössze egyetlen forrásból ered, abból a bizonyos 577-es fogolytörzskönyvi adatlapból. A vizsgálat célja annak bemutatása, miként lehet egy eleddig nem kellően kiaknázott forrástípust társadalomtörténeti vizsgálathoz alkalmazni: a kiolvasható személyes adatokon túl a forrást egy sajtóvétségi eset megvilágítására használom fel, és a levonandó következtetéseket szélesebb társadalomtörténeti kontextusban is megpróbálom értelmezni.
Politikai állatsereglet a Borsszem Jankó hasábjain
Authors: Tamás Ágnes
Published: November 2021

A test vizuális megjelenítése, az arcvonások torzítása, a test és az arc átalakítása a humor vagy gúny kifejezésére a politikai élclapok fegyvertárának egyik fontos eszköze a 19. század második felében – politikai beállítódástól függetlenül. A század derekát követő két évtizedet, Magyarországon az élclapok darabszáma emelkedésének időszakát még inkább az emberi arcvonások változtatása vagy a férfiak nőként való megjelenítése jellemezte, míg a 19. század utolsó évtizedeiben már nem csupán a politikusok jellegzetes vonásait figurázták ki a rajzolók, hanem állatokként vagy félig ember, félig állatként is ábrázolták őket. Tanulmányomban arra keresem a választ, hogy a korszak népszerű, Ágai Adolf által szerkesztett kormánypárti vicclapjában, a Borsszem Jankóban az 1890-es években1 milyen módon alkalmazták a rajzolók a karikatúrákon a test eltorzítását és állattá alakítását mint a humor, illetve a gúny eszközét.
A kolláció a domonkos és ferences apácáknál

Szent Margit magyar nyelvű legendájában többször botlunk olyan mondatba, amelyet érteni vélünk, de valójában nem tudjuk pontosan, mit is jelent. Ilyen a következő mondat is, amely a királylány devócióját jellemzi: „Szent kereszt naptól fogva kedég húsvétig ebéd után egy kevéssé megmarad vala az szororokkal, és az után el megyen vala az karban, és áll vala imádságokban nagy sirálmmal mind kollációig” (Margit-legenda, 5v:18–25). Az idézett szöveg kérdéses helye a kolláció, annak jelentése, formája és tartalma. A következők azt vizsgálják, mikor és hogyan tartották a kollációt a kolostorokban.
