Factors associated with depression among university students: the role of students satisfaction
Authors: Bekova Saule , Dementeva Julia , Smirnov Ivan
Published: November 2021

University education is recognized as an important period of life that determines the future trajectories and success of individuals. It is also the time when the onset of depression peaks. In this paper, we use data on 4,182 students from a selective university to identify the main factors associated with symptoms of depression among this cohort. Besides socio-demographic characteristics that are largely out of the university's control, we pay specific attention to the role of students’ satisfaction with various aspects of their university life. We find that controlling for potential confounders, satisfaction is negatively associated with depression. We also find that survey data routinely collected by the university could be used to identify individuals at high risk of future depression.
Strangers in the Homeland? The Academic Performance of Children of Return Migrants in Mexico
Authors: Hoffmann Nathan Isaac
Published: November 2021

The number of return migrants from the U.S. to Mexico has swelled in recent years, yet we know little about the academic performance of the over 500,000 U.S.-born children who have accompanied them. This study compares Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) test scores of U.S.-born children of return migrants in Mexico to two groups: Mexican-born students in Mexico and students in the U.S. born to Spanish-speaking immigrant parents. While previous work often highlights the struggles these children face in adapting to schools in Mexico, at age 15 they attain slightly higher PISA scores than their Mexican-born counterparts. However, these adolescents’ scores are much lower than similar youths’ in the U.S. Results for both comparisons change little in models controlling for variables related to immigrant selection and are consistent across possible individual moderators, including age at migration. This paper highlights the importance of a cross-border perspective and attention to institutional context in studies of immigrant education.
Sweat Equity: Student scholarships in Aotearoa New Zealand’s Universities
Authors: Soar Max , Stewart Lucy C , Nissen Sylvia , Naepi Sereana , McAllister Tara
Published: November 2021

This paper responds to calls from past and present students to increase the value of postgraduate scholarships in Aotearoa New Zealand. Here we provide context for understanding the scholarship landscape in Aotearoa, including how scholarships are understood in relation to dominant neoliberal framings of higher education and persistent inequities within the sector. We present data which provides insight into the current inequities in Summer, Masters and PhD scholarship values. The average value of PhD scholarships has remained stagnant between 2011 and 2019 resulting in the average being $11,238 less than the Living Wage in 2019. We show that the average length of time full-time PhD students take to complete their doctorates exceeds the three-year tenure of scholarships. We argue the status-quo of low scholarships, supplemented by postgraduate ‘sweat’, excludes people from participating in postgraduate education, preventing them and their communities from realising the public benefits that such an education can produce. We suggest that these inadequacies could be addressed through 1) raising Summer, Masters and PhD scholarships to the living wage; 2) extending tenure of PhD scholarships; and 3) reinstating the postgraduate student allowance.
The relevance of dietetics in Gandhian philosophy: Mapping the trajectories of his experiments
Authors: MITRA DEBASHISH
Published: November 2021

This article argues for analytics of dietary habits of Mahatma Gandhi through an argument around his practices and manner of articulation on discourses on food; his experimentation around dietetics and its relation to political goals in the light of colonial governmentality. Gandhi's dietetics practice intervened with the construction of Oriental as the 'others', showing that the subject (Indian) domain constituted the hegemonic order of colonial reign by presenting the superiority inherent in the colonial culture. In this regard, this article describes the emergence of Gandhi's alternative dietary habits, with analyses of discourses on scientific treatment of food as a part of daily livelihood, while understanding and arguing for the importance of dietetics as an integral part of the political world of modernity. It concludes that the broader contours of Gandhian philosophy and its introduction in Indian society through nationalist politics are uniformly appended with the formulation of his experimentation, not only with his philosophical and political goals but also with his daily practices dietetics constitute an essential part. Throughout, there is an attempt to present the symbolic and discursive construction of dietetics and experimentations to negotiate the individual's character.

“Fruchtcocktails” and “Explosionen”: Navigating War and Destruction in Olga Grjasnowa’sGott ist nicht schüchtern(2017)
Authors: Steckenbiller Christiane
Published: November 2021

With more than two thirds of Olga Grjasnowa’s Gott ist nicht schüchtern set in present-day Syria, the novel’s main objective is to convey to its readers a sense of the Syrian Civil War and its effects on individual lives. Grjasnowa goes to great lengths to describe the early days of the uprising, the atrocities committed by the Assad regime, and the slow but definite destruction and ultimate uninhabitability of the Syrian nation state. But the text also reveals the importance of coping mechanisms and strategies for survival and resistance. By foregrounding the quotidian spaces of everyday life and the often banal routines for navigating war and destruction, this article interrogates to what extent life under extreme conditions is still conceivable and explores what kinds of insights the depiction of war opens up for envisioning a more hospitable environment for newcomers in the host country.
Auf den Spuren ihrer Geschichte: Black German Detectives and the Cases of Anäis Schmitz and Fatou Fall
Authors: Plumly Vanessa D.
Published: November 2021

The various types of detective work that Black individuals and communities undertake enables them to collect evidence and knowledge and disseminate tactics for resistance. I first contextualize the advent of Black German detection in real life and then turn to fictional Black German detectives in literature and on television. In doing so, I explore the interconnectedness of Black German belonging—both real and imagined—through the act and art of detection. The earliest official, fictional Black German female detectives within these media, Anäis Schmitz and Fatou Fall, allow for an exploration of the intersectionality of race, cisgender, and heteronormative reproduction. Their introduction to this genre overlaps in the timing of their debut appearances (2019), but the characters contrast in terms of representation, due in part to the medium employed and to the racial positionality of their creators. Thus, I investigate how crime novels and crime television shows shift the representation and recognition of Black Germans but remain attuned to how institutional and historically anchored racist structures “frame” Black German belonging.
SOCIAL WORK WITH SERVICEMAN AND THEIR FAMILIES IN THE CONDITIONS OF LONG CONFLICT IN EASTERN UKRAINE
Authors: Logvinova Olga , Rasskazova Olha
Published: November 2021

The purpose of the article is to study the current state, features, content, methods, and technologies of social work with the military and their families amid the current conflict in eastern Ukraine.

In line with the activities of the Information and Social Center for IDPs of Kharkiv Humanitarian and Pedagogical Academy of the Kharkiv Regional Council, the authors conducted a pilot focus group survey to determine the quality of social assistance to the servicemen and their families using a proprietary questionnaire “Assessing the quality of social service for the servicemen and their families members.”

It has been found that social work with servicemen includes social protection, social support, social services, and adaptation work. The following major areas of social work with the military have been identified: social, socio-legal, socio-healthcare, socio-economic, financial, and socio-labour. However, it is necessary to develop socio-psychological, socio-pedagogical, socio-informational areas that will ensure a person’s adaptation in society, personal growth, and self-improvement. Development and implementation of ways to promote public and professional awareness of servicemen's social problems and their families are also relevant in current conditions along with constant scientific and practical search, and effective assistance to this social group in solving their problems in practice.

The article proves that the goals of current social work are to preserve the physical and mental strength of servicemen, adjust their attitudes, and enhance their development in society.

The article outlines the need for enrichment methods and technologies (individual therapy, group therapy, family therapy, counselling, and support) of social work with servicemen. It establishes that optimization of present-day technologies of social work with war veterans is possible under the following conditions: expansion of the range of services in the state network of social services, creation of alternative centres for social services; availability of social work professionals trained to work in the military environment and solve the problems of the military; organization of self-help and mutual assistance for the families of servicemen; formation of an effective social policy of the state in general and in the field of social protection of war veterans in Ukraine in particular.

The article also includes practical recommendations for social workers on improving mechanisms of regulation of social protection for servicemen and families members.
YOUTH PUBLIC ORGANIZATIONS AND THEIR ACTIVITIES IN THE CONTEXT OF ETHNIC PEDAGOGICS OF WESTERN UKRAINIANS
Authors: Rusyn Halyna
Published: November 2021

This article analyzes the activities of children and youth organizations with a pronounced national pedagogical component. It is noted that the progressive development of these organizations acquired the features of consistency at the turn of the 20th century. Social movement in the student environment is associated with education in many educational institutions in Western Ukraine's school communities. With their help, Ukrainian literary circles, theatres, libraries were created, which, on the one hand, contributed to the youth’s self-education, on the other – reflected the people's pedagogical experience of teaching and upbringing of children accumulated over centuries; student societies often issued their periodicals.

The ethnopedagogical component of the activities of created youth organizations and movements ("Sokil", "Sich", "Plast", "Lugh", Kamenyary”, "Dorist", etc.) is analyzed. People's pedagogical foundations of their activities expressed in moral and ethical principles, included, as a rule, the upbringing of a healthy body and spirit of the young generation of the Ukrainian nation, love for Ukraine, concern for the national honour, the development of a strong character, ability and aptitude for daily work and cohesion. The connection between the content of the activities of youth organizations and movements and the leading ethnopedagogical concepts is highlighted: Family

(these public organizations declared and embodied the enduring value of the Ukrainian family as the most important unit of national education and the formation of a Ukrainian patriotic character), language (all youth societies of the late XIX - early decades of the 20th century were Ukrainian-speaking and considered the Ukrainian language as an indispensable basis for their nationally oriented activities), Faith (each of the youth organizations had representatives of Christian churches, most often - Greek Catholic), Society (each of such organization was itself a community, implemented a social model of functioning and management; the collective nature of decision-making provided youth organizations with wide popularity and respect among the Western Ukrainian national-conscious community).
Fetal cardiac functional performance and development of diabetic gestations
Authors: Refaat Kotb Sally Ahmed , Shaaban Amr
Published: November 2021

Objective of research: To reveal and asses probable change in fetal cardiac physiological function of pregestational diabetic gestations. Research design: We performed a prospective research study of 31 gestations between 22 weeks’ gestational age and full term, and who had pregestational diabetes. All diabetic women recruited in the research performed had glycosylated hemoglobin lower than 6.5%. All gestations involved in the research performed had an early sonographic confirmation of fetal gestational age. Doppler study of blood flow via the fetal mitral and tricuspid valves were performed every 4 weeks using a pulsed wave sonographic Doppler machine with a 3.5- or 5-MHz ultrasound transducer. The subsequent parameters were analysed and calculated automatically from the revealed flow velocity waveforms: the peak velocity during the rapid ventricular filling phase (E wave) and during the atrial systole phase (A wave), and the ratio between these obtained velocities (E/A ratio); and the velocity time fundamental of the fetal atrioventricular blood flow (correlated with volume flow). A comparative statistical analysis between the Doppler parameters revealed from fetal examination of diabetic gestations and of normal gestations was performed by using the Mann-Whitney test. Results: Each gestation recruited for the study performed around four to five fetal echocardiographic Sonographic assessments at 22, 26, 30, 34, and 38 weeks’ gestation. The E/A ratio of the mitral and tricuspid valves did not Rise in fetuses of diabetic women during the third trimester and was observed to be statistically significantly higher manner in fetuses of nondiabetic gestations in comparison with fetuses of diabetic gestations at 34 and 38 gestational weeks. Calculated velocity time basic of the mitral and tricuspid valves when multiplied by fetal heart rate was greater, but not statistically significant, in fetuses of nondiabetic gestations when put in comparison with diabetic gestations fetuses at 34 and 38 weeks’ gestational weeks. The E-wave of both the mitral and tricuspid valves rised in both study categories all the way through pregnancy. The A-wave of the mitral and tricuspid valves rised only in diabetic gestation fetuses all over the final gestational trimester and was statistically significant in a greater manner at 34 and 38 gestational weeks compared with fetuses of nondiabetic women. Conclusion: variability in fetal atrioventricular blood flow forms between fetuses of diabetic gestations and normal gestations does not essentially cause variability in fetal functional cardiac compliance.

Authors: El-Gaber Ali Abd El-Naser Abd , M Abdallah Khaled , Abdelhamid Ahmed
Published: November 2021

Background: Prevention of the premature birth occurrence remains is considered one of the most tough challenges for obstetricians worldwide, mainly to avoid neonatal prematurity complications leading to short and long term morbidities additionally prematurity prevention will reduce premature neonatal mortality rates which is considered a major health concern of obstetricians, neonatologists and families. Objective: To compare and contrast the efficacy of Sildenafil citrate, Nifedipine and Dydrogesrone in prevention of premature labor in gestations with short cervix. Setting: Obstetrics & Gynecology Departments, Faculties of medicine, south Valley and Al-Azhar (Asyut) Universities, Egypt. Duration: from September 2014 to March 2018. Patients And Methds: the study was conducted on 300 pregnant women who randomly divided into three groups: Group I included 100 cases received Sildenafil citrate (Respatio tablet 20mg twice daily orally), Group II included 100 cases received Nifedipine (Epilat retard tablets 20mg twice daily orally) and Group III included 100 pregnant women received dydrogesreone 10 mg (Duphaston) twice daily orally. Results: incidence of preterm labor was (9.37, 8.51 and 14.28) in (Group I, Group II and Group II) respectively. Mean ± SD of cervical length at 32 weeks of gestation was mildly statistically significant among groups (p value <0.05) but no significance in neonatal outcome (p value >0.05) except birth weight which had a highly statistically significant difference (p value < 0.001). There was a highly statistically significant difference among studied groups as regard to drug side effects in (p value <0.001). Conclusion: Sildenafil citrate was as effective as Nifedipine and better than oral Dydrogesterone on myometrial relaxation and prevention of preterm birth in pregnant women who had short cervix.

Development in medicine in large scale merits the development of biomechanical and biomedical engineering. This highly concerns with the medical rehabilitation, which according to the modern understanding is the interdisciplinary management aiming at recovering or improving efficiency of the organism which is beyond the ability of pure medical [1]. Model of Polish rehabilitation is based on four basic principles: early application of rehabilitation, it’s universality, complexity and continuity procedures. Early application of rehabilitation prevents from development of unwanted changes such as: contractures, muscular atrophies, trophic abnormalities and decreases the frequent negative outcomes due to long term immobilization [2].Complexion principles defines then interdisciplinary character, paying attention at the importance increasing maximum care to improve the activities disabled, supplying him with necessary prosthetic – orthotic equipment in order to easy the performance of activities at home conditions, environment and if possible – come back to professional job.

Extensor Carpi Radialis brevis: Review of Anatomy and Clinical Significance to Orthopedics
Authors: L Smith Jennifer , B Stirton Jacob , A Ebraheim Nabil
Published: November 2021

The extensor carpi radialis brevis (ECRB) muscle is an integral extensor and abductor of the wrist. It originates from the lateral epicondyle of the humerus, laying deep to the extensor carpi radialis longus and extensor digitorum communis, and superficial to the supinator. Insertion occurs at the base of the third metacarpal. The radial nerve or a derivative supplies innervation. Its significance in orthopedics is highlighted by its involvement in multiple surgical approaches, such as the Thompson and Kaplan approaches for exposure of the radius, as well as its association with several routinely observed pathologies. Many of the associated syndromes, such as lateral epicondylitis, arise from repetitive gripping motions or overuse and are frequently seen in the orthopedic clinic. This review seeks to provide a comprehensive summary of the relevance of the ECRB to the orthopedic setting to broaden knowledge of its anatomy and increase recognition and proper management of associated pathologies.

Erythema dyschromicum perstans is an asymptomatic eruption of oval, polycyclic, or irregularly shaped, gray-blue hyperpigmented macules on the trunk, the arms, the face, and the neck. It begins as ash-colored macules, sometimes with an erythematous or elevated border. The patient is not usually suffer from any systemic symptoms. Erythema dyschromicum perstans may resolve in 2-3 years in prepubertal children, but it is more likely to persist in adults. [1] Erythema dyschromicum perstans (EDP) most often affects darker skinned patients, most frequently Latin Americans and Indians. It has also been reported in people of lighter skin colour and various ethnicities. It may occur in women more often than men. It is repoted in young adults than adults. The exact etiology of EDP is unknown. Damage to melanocytes and basal cell keratinocytes that is observed with EDP is due to an abnormal immune response to antigens with a predominance of CD8 + T lymphocytes in the dermis and HLA-DR +, intercellular adhesion molecule 1 + keratinocytes in the epidermis. EDP is characterized in histological examination by a vacuolar liquefactive degeneration of the basal cell layer with dermal melanosis and a perivascular infiltrate.

Endovascular Treatment of High Output Heart Failure from Aortocaval Fistulas
Authors: Xu Jun , Marjan Anna
Published: November 2021

Aortocaval fistulas are a rare cause of high output heart failure. The infrequency with which it is encountered makes these fistulas a formidable diagnostic and treatment challenge. In the absence of infection, traditional repair with open surgical approach has required in-situ graft replacement of the affected portion of the aorta with concomitant repair of the cava defect. Mortality associated with open repair is reported to be as high as 66%. Technical advances in endovascular treatment of aortic aneurysms over the past two decades are increasingly used in other large vessel pathologies. This mini-review summarizes current evidence for employing endovascular techniques for aortocaval fistulas.

Introduction: Leukemia is a heterogeneous group of hematological disorders that is made up of several diverse and biologically distinct subgroups. Leukemia is the 11th and10th most common cause of cancer morbidity and mortality worldwide, respectively. There are insufficient data on the prevalence and associated factors of leukemia in Yemen, particularly in the study area. Aims: This cross-sectional study aims to determine the prevalence of different types of leukemia and associated factors among children with leukemia in the pediatric cancer units of Al-Kuwait Hospital, Sana'a City. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on children with leukemia who were treated selectively in the pediatric leukemia units of Kuwait University Hospital in Sana'a. Group diagnostics and histopathological diagnoses were formed in line with the French, American and British classifications of leukemia in children in the pediatric leukemia units, over a period of 5 years. Factors associated with become infected with leukemia that were studied included ages, gender, and regarding outcomes. The association of death and recovery with different age groups and leukemia types was also studied through rates and calculation of OR, CI, chi-square test and p values ​​through probability tables. Results: 244 leukemia patients were diagnosed, treated and followed; there was association of leukemia with younger age group; 50% were in the age group 1-5 years and with mean ± SD age= 6.44 ± 3.7 years. There was significant association with male gender (66.7%). There was non-significant association between high mortality and the 6-10 year age group [(8/78; 10.2%), with OR = 2.6, p = 0.060, and with the AML [(4/38; 10.5%), OR = 2.1)]. Considering, the cure rates association with ages, roughly there were similar cure rates occurred in the different age groups. Also, there was high cure rate in the JCM (2/3; 66%), with OR = 2.9. And with the CML (7/11; 63.6%; OR = 2.60. Conclusion: In the current study an association between leukemia and younger age group, with males was found. An association between high mortality and the 6-10 year age group, with AML was found. Also, there was no association between ages and cure rate but a high cure rate occurred with JCM and CML.

We report a 56-year-old male who presented with a solitary swelling in the right side of neck which was clinically diagnosed as a benign cystic lesion, hence complete excision of the lesion was done. Histopathology demonstrated the papillary proliferation of endothelial cells, in favour of Masson’s tumor.

Spontaneous pneumothorax is a rare but potentially fatal complication of coronavirus infection and COVID-19 pneumonia. Data is limited to guide clinicians in the setting of spontaneous pneumothorax when conservative management fails and operative intervention is required. We report the clinical course and operative strategy for a patient who presented with sequential bilateral spontaneous pneumothorax after being diagnosed with severe COVID-19 pneumonia. Conservative management with bilateral tube thoracostomies failed to resolve persistent alveolar-pleural fistulae, and ultimately the patient recovered after synchronous bilateral VATS blebectomies in the operating room. The timing and treatment of spontaneous pneumothorax requires follow-up education and surveillance for patients with this disease, as lack of prompt treatment outside the hospital could increase patient mortality. Spontaneous pneumothorax is a concern in patients who re-present with recurrent symptoms after COVID-19 diagnosis. When conservative treatment fails, surgery can safely be performed in COVID-19 patients with simultaneous bilateral pneumothorax with full functional recovery.
Acute Testicular Torsion in Children: A Tertiary Hospital Experience in a Developing Country
Authors: Kevin Emeka Chukwubuike
Published: November 2021

Background: Testicular torsion is a urological emergency in which there is a race against time to salvage the testis. The aim of this study was to evaluate our experience in the management of children who presented with acute testicular torsion. Materials and Methods: This was a retrospective study of children aged 15 years and below who had surgery for acute testicular torsion between January 2013 and December 2017 at the pediatric surgery unit of a teaching hospital in Enugu, Nigeria. Results: Sixty-four children were managed during the study period. The ages of the patients ranged from 2 months to 14 years with a median of 6 years. The right testis was mostly affected and the mean duration from the onset of symptom to presentation was 4 hours. All the patients presented with testicular pain and half of the patients had a prior history of intermittent testicular pain. Four (6.3%) patients had a history of trauma precipitating the testicular torsion and 3 (4.7%) patients had undescended testis. Detorsion and Orchidopexy was the most performed surgical procedure and wound infection was the most common post-operative complication. There was no mortality. Conclusion: Testicular torsion is not uncommon in children and may be associated with testicular loss. The right testis is mostly involved in children. Prior history of intermittent testicular pain, trauma and undescended testis are important considerations. Prompt detorsion and orchidopexy remains the cornerstone of treatment.

Authors: Al Mosawi Aamir Jalal
Published: November 2021

Background: On the first of June, 2021, 1,201,352 cases of covid-19 were reported by the Iraqi Ministry of Health, and 16375 patients died because of the disease. The aim of this paper is to describe chest CT-scan findings of an Iraqi patient who was observed early during June, 2021, and had symptomatic covid-19, but he didn’t need hospitalization. Patients and methods: A forty-year old school teacher developed covid-19 disease with fever, fatigue, anorexia, and cough. The patient recovered after about two weeks. Results: Chest CT-scan performed during first week of illness showed: (1) Multiple bilateral ground glass opacities. (2) Atelectatic bands. (3) Thickening of the interlobular septa. (4) Vascular thickening. Conclusion: The chest CT-scan findings in this Iraqi patient was rather typical of covid-19 disease and included the most commonly reported abnormality of ground-glass shadows.
Sistema de alerta temprana: Centinela, una experiencia para la retención estudiantil en la Universidad Católica de la Santísima Concepción

Published: November 2021

The aim of this work is to describe the design and development process of the early warning system (SAT, for Sistema de Alerta Temprana) of the Universidad Católica de la Santísima Concepción, named Centinela. The work presented here explains the context in which the SATs were born within educational institutions, followed by a detailed description of the theoretical basics of the Centinela SAT, and the speculative and practical management of academic risk. In addition, a description of the multilevel concept used in designing Centinela, its creation process, and the management of information is included. Lastly, this work provides an analysis and future projections which may be valuable to educational institution overseers interested in SATs.This system is innovative with respect to other SATs, as it proposes a multilevel monitoring, analysis, and follow-up model, which goes beyond the individual situation of students, and it is based on a relational logic of learning. It is founded on a relational logic and learning dynamic, which enhances the institutionâ€™s innovation and the studentsâ€™ potential, proposing in turn an overcoming of the mere remedial logic.
Riesgos en la transición a la educación terciaria. Narrativas sobre cómo se perciben y gestionan

Access to tertiary education through university pathways, on the one hand, and vocational education, on the other, brings different degrees of risks. When students make their choices, they are assessing the risk they are willing to take, and this raises questions of equity according to the social prestige of each pathway. In this paper we explore how students from diverse social backgrounds make educational choices, how they experience their educational pathway and the future prospects they advance. The data come from 19 interviews with vocational training and university students (2017/2018). Students differ in some respects according to their social background: when an upper-middle class student chooses the vocational training pathway, they tend to come into conflict with their family; working class students experience their relationship with money in a tenser way. On the other hand, they all show great optimism about academic future and work success.
Z dziejów wokabuł literowych w leksykografii polsko-	rosyjskiej (na materiale ilustracyjnym XIX-wiecznego słownika Piotra Dubrowskiego)
Authors: Marszałek Marek

Autor zajął się słabo opracowanym zagadnieniem obecności w słownikach dwujęzycznychartykułów hasłowych z literą w nagłówku. Przedstawił skromny stan badań, wskazał– głównie na podstawie prac J. Wawrzyńczyka – potencjał przekładowy tkwiący w hasłachgrafemowych, dokonał przeglądu słowników polsko-rosyjskich i rosyjsko-polskich podkątem rejestrowania haseł literowych oraz pod kątem zawartości takich haseł. Autorpodał też w wielkim skrócie wyniki analizy zawartości wokabuł grafemowych, dokonanejwcześniej na podstawie części rosyjsko-polskiej XIX-wiecznego słownika P. Dubrowskiego,po czym przeszedł do krytycznego oglądu analogicznych haseł w części polsko-rosyjskiej.Wykazał, że tak jak w komponencie rosyjsko-polskim hasła literowe są segmentamiszkicu graficzno-fonetycznego, rozrzuconymi po całym korpusie słownika. LeksykografXIX-wieczny nie potraktował grafemów jako jednostek przekładowych, nie wykorzystałodnośnych artykułów nawet jako miejsca prezentacji frazeologii, którą pewne litery obrosły.
Fonetyczno-graficzny obraz polszczyzny końca XIX stulecia zawarty w hasłach literowych słownika polsko-rosyjskiego P. Dubrowskiego
Authors: Mędelska Jolanta
Published: November 2021

Autorka przedstawia obraz XIX-wiecznej wymowy i pisowni polskiej wyłaniający sięze wskazówek na temat realizacji głoskowej liter polskiego alfabetu. Te rekomendacjefonetyczne, skierowane do Rosjan, zawarte są w artykułach hasłowych z literami w nagłówkachzamieszczonymi w słowniku polsko-rosyjskim P. Dubrowskiego. Stwierdzono,że opracowując zasady współczesnej sobie polskiej wymowy (rzadziej pisowni), RosjaninP. Dubrowski niekiedy odrzucał dane przedstawione w słownikach jednojęzycznychi prezentował swoje stanowisko albo – wobec braku w źródłach potrzebnej informacji– opierał się na własnych obserwacjach. Zdarzało mu się ignorować różnice artykulacyjnemiędzy głoskami przy zgodności funkcjonalnej. Słownikarz zazwyczaj upraszczał opisy,nie uwzględniał szczegółów i wyjątków, czasem istotnych. Prawdopodobnie celowo niekomplikował deskrypcji, ale możliwe też, że będąc nierodzimym użytkownikiem polszczyzny,po prostu pewnych kwestii nie dostrzegał, innych nie uważał za ważne, wiedzącz własnego doświadczenia, że nie zaburzają procesu komunikacji. Rezultaty analizy wskazująteż, że wiele nieścisłości dostrzeżonych w opisach polskich głosek mogło wynikać zewschodniosłowiańskich przyzwyczajeń mownych rosyjskiego słownikarza, urodzonegona ziemi ukraińskiej i osłuchanego z polszczyzną kresową. Zestawienie rekomendacjiP. Dubrowskiego z tendencjami rozwojowymi polszczyzny ostatniej ćwierci XIX w. zdajesię wskazywać na przywiązanie leksykografa do starszych norm. Jednakże ten konserwatyzmleksykografa mógł być tylko pozorny i jedynie odzwierciedlać nawyki artykulacyjneosoby rosyjskojęzycznej.
