Objective: To model and analyze the behavior of surface runoff in the Yaqui river basin under climate change scenarios. Methodology: Representative concentration pathways (RCP) of three sub-basins (La Angostura, El Novillo and El Oviachic) were shown using hydrologic modeling with SWAT, where the simulated variable was surface runoff. Results: A change in water availability of -67 % is expected in La Angostura for the period 2021-2040 (RCP2.6) and an increase of 60 % from 2041-2060 (RCP8.5), in El Novillo a decrease of 65 % is predicted for the period 2061-2080 (RCP4. 5) and a 42 % increase from 2061-2080 (RCP2.6), and in El Oviachic a 63 % decrease is predicted for the period 2041-2060 (RCP2.6 and 4.5) and a 47 % increase from 2041-2060 (RCP4.5). Limitations: Veracity and impact of basins studies depend on quality hydro-climatic information of unrestricted availability. Originality: The impact of climate change on the availability of water for agricultural use in the Yaqui River basin was projected. In addition, there is a technological platform for planning processes. Conclusions: The data collected can be used to generate adaptation and mitigation strategies for efficient water use in the basin and to propose long-term sustainable management alternatives.
Introduction: Divided by Death? Staging Mortality in the Early Modern Low Countries
Authors: Casteels Isabel , Deschryver Louise , Soen Violet
Published: July 2021

This special issue examines the multifaceted phenomenon of death in the early modern Low Countries. When war, revolt, and disease ravaged the Netherlands, the experience of death came to be increasingly materialised in vanitas art, funeral sermons, ars moriendi prints, mourning poetry, deathbed psalms, memento mori pendants, grave monuments, épitaphiers, and commemoration masses. This collection of interdisciplinary essays brings historical, art historical, and literary perspectives to bear on the complex cultural and anthropological dimensions of death in past societies. It argues that the sensing and staging of mortality reconfigured confessional and political repertoires, alternately making and breaking communities in the delta of Rhine, Meuse, and Scheldt. As such, death’s ‘omnipresence’ within the context of ongoing war and religious polarization contributed to the confessional and political reconfiguration of the early modern Low Countries.
Traduire en espagnol les textes pédagogiques des femmes de Lumières : défi ou viabilité ?
Authors: Onandia Ruiz Beatriz
Published: July 2021

De nombreux spécialistes contemporains définissent le XVIIIe siècle espagnol comme celui des traduc­tions. Tout au long de cette riche période, une multitude de traductions mettaient l’accent sur certains textes pédagogiques français destinés à l’instruction des femmes des Lumières. Ainsi, tous ces travaux contribuèrent à l’élaboration d’un corpus de textes en espagnol qui abordaient l’éducation des femmes au XVIIIe siècle. Ceci servit à configurer, dans un contexte social particulièrement patriarcal comme la société espagnole, une première pensée réfor­matrice à l’égard de l’éducation des femmes, et leur rôle dans la société.
(Re)traduire des classiques français en breton

Dans le cadre d’une politique volontariste d’aide à la publication d’ouvrages en langue bretonne par le Conseil régional de Bretagne, cet article s’intéresse au dispositif d’aide à la (re)traduction en breton d’œuvres du « patrimoine littéraire mondial » et plus particulièrement celles écrites en langue française. Comme ces (re)tra­duc­tions ne s’expliquent pas par la nécessité de rendre ces œuvres accessibles – le lectorat du breton étant francophone –, c’est donc qu’elles ont d’autres objectifs à replacer dans le contexte plus large de la politique de promotion, de diffusion et d’extension sociale de la langue bretonne.

Surface plasmon assisted toxic chemical NO2 gas sensor by Au ∕ ZnO functional thin films
Authors: Gaur Ravinder , Padhy Himanshu Mohan , Elayaperumal Manikandan
Published: July 2021

Abstract. In this short communication, we propose a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor based on a ZnO / Au hybrid thin-film material structure and experimentally investigate its sensitivity improvement. The Kretschmann-based SPR sensor utilizes ZnO thin films and nanostructures for performance enhancement. The advancement in SPR technology relies on a low-cost, high-sensitivity, and high-selectivity sensor. Metal oxide (MO) has been incorporated into the SPR sensor to be used for detection of biological and
chemical compounds. ZnO as one of the metal oxides is an attractive material due to its unique physical and optical properties. Numerous techniques for
fabrication and characterization of ZnO on SPR gold substrate have been
studied. The mechanism for gas and biomolecule detection depends on their interaction with the ZnO surface, which is mainly attributed to the high
isoelectric point of ZnO. There are several types of ZnO nanostructures
which have been employed for SPR application based on the Kretschmann
configuration. In the future, the thin film and nanostructures of ZnO could be a potential application for miniature design, robust, high sensitivity, and
a low-cost portable type of SPR biosensor to be used for on-site testing in a real-time and label-free manner. The present work includes the application of a developed SPR setup for gas sensing at room temperature using a specially designed gas cell. The change in the optical properties of dielectric layers
(ZnO) with adsorption of gases (NO2) in order to develop an optical
sensor has been presented. The obtained results emphasize the applications
of an SPR setup for the study of interaction of adsorbed gas molecules, with dielectrics and gas sensing.
Near-surface structure of the Sodankylä area in Finland, obtained by passive seismic interferometry
Authors: Afonin Nikita , Kozlovskaya Elena , Heinonen Suvi , Buske Stefan
Published: July 2021

Abstract. Controlled-source seismic exploration surveys are not
always possible in nature-protected areas. As an alternative, the application of
passive seismic techniques in such areas can be proposed. In our study, we
show results of passive seismic interferometry application for mapping the
uppermost crust in the area of active mineral exploration in northern
Finland. We utilize continuous seismic data acquired by the Sercel Unite
wireless multichannel recording system along several profiles during XSoDEx
(eXperiment of SOdankylä Deep Exploration) multidisciplinary geophysical
project. The objective of XSoDEx was to obtain a structural image of the
upper crust in the Sodankylä area of northern Finland in order to
achieve a better understanding of the mineral system at depth. The key
experiment of the project was a high-resolution seismic reflection
experiment. In addition, continuous passive seismic data were acquired in
parallel with reflection seismic data acquisition. Due to this, the length
of passive data suitable for noise cross-correlation was limited from
several hours to a couple of days. Analysis of the passive data demonstrated
that dominating sources of ambient noise are non-stationary and have
different origins across the XSoDEx study area. As the long data registration
period and isotropic azimuthal distribution of noise sources are two major
conditions for empirical Green function (EGF) extraction under the diffuse
field approximation assumption, it was not possible to apply the
conventional techniques of passive seismic interferometry. To find the way
to obtain EGFs, we used numerical modelling in order to investigate
properties of seismic noise originating from sources with different
characteristics and propagating inside synthetic heterogeneous Earth models
representing real geological conditions in the XSoDEx study area. The
modelling demonstrated that scattering of ballistic waves on irregular shape
heterogeneities, such as massive sulfides or mafic intrusions, could
produce a diffused wavefield composed mainly of scattered surface waves. In
our study, we show that this scattered wavefield can be used to retrieve
reliable EGFs from short-term and non-stationary
data using special techniques. One of the possible solutions is application
of “signal-to-noise ratio stacking” (SNRS). The EGFs calculated for the
XSoDEx profiles were inverted, in order to obtain S-wave velocity models
down to the depth of 300 m. The obtained velocity models agree well
with geological data and complement the results of reflection seismic data
interpretation.

Published: July 2021

The analysis of monthly mean locations of the planetary upper-level frontal zone in the Euro-Atlantic sector in summer during 1990-2019 is presented. Specific positions for the summer months (June, July, and August) are noted and maximum northward displacements from the climatological normal for 1961-1990 are found in the years with the formation of the atmospheric blocking. The values of standard deviations of the displacements relative to the normal position were calculated for the summer period of each year both for the North Atlantic, Europe, and the European part of Russia and for the Euro-Atlantic sector. On the basis of linear regression, a tendency is revealed toward an increase in the meridional displacements of the planetary upper-level frontal zone over the recent thirty years and toward the occurrence of maximum deviations over the last decade.

Published: July 2021

The International Health Regulations (2005) are legally binding on 196 States Parties, Including all WHO Member States. The IHR aims to keep the world informed about public health risks, through committing all signatories to cooperate together in combating any future “illness or medical condition, irrespective of origin or source, that presents or could present significant harm to humans.” Under IHR, countries agreed to strengthen their public health capacities and notify the WHO of any such illness in their populations. The WHO would be the centralized body for all countries facing a health threat, with the power to declare a “public health emergency of international concern,” issue recommendations, and work with countries to tackle a crisis. Although, with the sudden and rapid spread of COVID-19 in the world, many countries varied in implementing the WHO guidelines and health recommendations. While some countries followed the WHO guidelines, others imposed travel restrictions against the WHO’s recommendations. Some refused to share their data with the organization. Others banned the export of medical equipment, even in the face of global shortages. The UN Compliance Research group will focus during the current cycle on analyzing the compliance of the WHO member states to the organizations guidelines during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The quest for tourism authenticity: The mediation and appropriation of literary-induced tourism
Authors: Sullivan Susan
Published: July 2021

Authenticity is a much-debated concept across fields as diverse as tourism to philosophy. In

the tourism and travel arena, authenticity is primarily viewed through the lens of the tourist

rather than the experience of the travel writer. One way in which existential authenticity is

realised in tourism experiences is through the evocation of feelings, emotions and states of

being in both travel communication and the actual tourism activity. This article looks at how

themes from literature and subsequent adaptions into popular culture via film and television

are appropriated by tourism communicators to portray an authentic tourism experience. It

will examine examples of tourist locations that are appropriated and mediated into literarybased storytelling by travel writers in order to attract visitors. These case studies include the

adoption of Tolkien in New Zealand and Shakespeare in Italy. The article also considers how

these inter-media adaptations transform and extend the shelf-life of tourism communication

campaigns.
Prosthetic journeys: Re-thinking travel writing through documentary adaptation
Authors: Turgoose Tash
Published: July 2021

Miller (2008) writes that auto-ethnographical writing is a form of knowing and discovery,

allowing the auto-ethnographer to explore themselves and their topic. The travel

documentary film expands upon this notion, allowing audiences to become privy to the

discovery process; viewers are active participants in the journey, often discovering new

knowledge alongside the presenter. Audience and presenter inhabit a shared liminal space,

embarking on an educational and physical journey, together. The presenter combines

didactic and personable discourses to bridge the gap between complex knowledge and

accessible language. New experiences are imprinted on both the presenter and viewer’s

consciousness, evoking participatory experiences and creating ‘prosthetic memories’ –

synthetic recollections appended to our actual lived experiences. The illusion of participation

is further conjured through visual elements; animated cine-maps create geospatial awareness, allowing audiences to feel ‘in the know’, becoming actively involved in the journey progression. The construction of a simulacrum, through representations of the countries and experiences, creates a staged authenticity, allowing viewers to project themselves into the journey. This article deconstructs visual and verbal elements of Joanna Lumley’s In the Land of Northern Lights (2008) for the purpose of adaptation into a multimodal, static form. Narration is studied for adaptation into the written word, and visual devices for adaptation into illustration, peritext, marginalia and ephemera. The possibilities for these adaptations are explored through a practice-led approach, with these discoveries offering static-based alternatives to animation and tracking maps, then introduces ephemera and marginalia as a means of in-formalising language. Furthermore, the process of adapting form, rather than content, is unpacked – a technique currently underrepresented in scholarship. Consequently, this article provides an insight into both the process and practice of adapting form.
Between architecture and language as ‘form of life’
Authors: Langenthal Edna
Published: July 2021

Ludwig Wittgenstein’s philosophical writing is characterized by two main books,

both acknowledged as major philosophical breakthroughs of the twentieth century:

Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus (1922), and Philosophical Investigations (published

posthumously in 1953). Between these two texts, there is a shift in Wittgenstein’s

thought on the structure and use of language, which is made evident by his decision

to forego the idea of ‘pictorial form’ in favor of ‘life form.’ This transition, which

allowed for a new understanding of the relation between the ethical and aesthetic

aspects of Wittgenstein’s thought, greatly influenced Paul Engelmann’s

understanding of architectural space. Following Wittgenstein’s writing, Engelmann

claims that the concepts of ‘the beautiful’ and ‘the good’ are closely related, resulting

in a distinct connection between what is beautiful and the concept of ‘form of life.’ In

light of the influence that Wittgenstein’s writing had on Engelmann’s architecture,

this paper examines the relation between architecture and language as ‘form of life,’ a

connection which is suggested in Engelmann’s lecture ’How to Build in the

Kibbutz?’ in which Engelmann uses the term ‘form of life’ in reference to

Wittgenstein’s writing on language.
Writing post-colonial spatial subjects: reading Gorée Island through Frantz Fanon
Authors: Preston Sergio
Published: July 2021

In Black Skin, White Masks, Frantz Fanon interrogates the role of language in forming

the colonial subject, noting that while ’there is an extraordinary power in the possession

of a language,’ there are also potentially dire side effects, in that a ’man who possesses

a language possesses as an indirect consequence the world expressed and implied by

this language’ (Fanon 2008: 2). This paper assumes that as for the human subject, so

too for the spatial subject, as the language used to ‘express and imply’ the architecture

of a place both affects and is affected by colonized subjecthoods and spatial

hegemonies. A central aspect of Fanon’s project is decolonization of the subject, partly

through resistance to the instrumentalization of history, but also through his method of

writing, which marshals an interdisciplinarily powerful poetic voice. This essay

explores the issue of Fanonian subjectivation as applied to architecture by examining

as case study Gorée Island, off the coast of Senegal. Mirroring its turbulent history as

a trade hub, competing narratives struggle to take hold of the island. Some such

narratives considered here are driven by concern for the island’s development

(Boubacar Joseph Ndiaye, UNESCO), historical past (Philip Curtin, Mark Hinchman),

or its symbolic importance (Dionne Brand). Fanon helps to trace a route through these

narratives of Gorée, asking what kinds of writing might perpetuate or resist the

colonization of a place, its architecture, and its history.
Parade of ghosts: buildings & their echoes
Authors: Bastéa Eleni
Published: July 2021

At the centre of this personal essay is my effort to understand the impact of buildings on literature, and the impact of literature on buildings. What happens when the built environment is drastically altered? How does memory mediate between what used to be there and what replaced it? I have drawn from personal experience, ancient myths and modern fairy tales, seeking to highlight both the intimate and the universal voice about places and the memories of those places. Piecing together personal narrative in prose and poetry with passages from classic and modern works, I endeavor to create an openended collage of words and virtual images that help readers navigate their own oceans of memory and architecture. I am inspired by the work of other authors who animate the page, letting words and thoughts come in and out of focus. Among them are the American author Carole Maso (The Art Lover, 1990; Ava, 1993); the Canadian classicist and poet Anne Carson (If not, winter: Fragments of Sappho, 2003; Nox, 2010); the German academic and author W.G. Sebald (The Emigrants, 1996; Austerlitz, 2001); and the French conceptual artist Sophie Calle (Take Care of Yourself, 2007; The Address Book, 2012).

Authors: Egorov M. V.
Published: July 2021

The aim of the work was to analyze the significance of magnetic resonance volumetric measurement in assessing the response to neoadjuvant therapy for primary operable and locally advanced breast cancer (BC). The study included 77 patients aged 30 to 80 years, of which 40 (67,5 %) patients were with primary resectable and 37 (32,5 %) with locally advanced primary non-resectable ВС. When planning neoadjuvant therapy (NAT), the determining factors were the degree of malignancy (G) and proliferative activity (Ki-67) of the tumor, the level of expression of steroid receptors (estrogen — ER / progesterone — PR) and the HER2/neu protein. Completed from 4 to 6 courses of NAT. Their effectiveness was analyzed according to the data of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI); changes in the tumor volume and its axial dimensions were taken into account. When comparing the sizes of tumors determined by the results of the analysis of the resection material and MRI, it was found that MR-volumetry has a higher sensitivity (Ac = 89,6; 95 % CI: 64,1–90,9) compared to the RECIST 1.1 criteria, taking into account the linear dimensions (Ac = 78,3; 95 % CI: 53,6–93,0).

Published: July 2021

Mangrove species are growing in exposed areas which have heavy metal contamination. The safeguard the mangrove ecosystem, it is important to understand their antioxidant responses to heavy metal toxicity. The goal of this study was to determine the effect of multi-heavy metals i.e. (Pb, Cd, Cr and Hg) on two mangrove plants Avicennia marina and Rhizophora mucronata of Indus delta via investigating their antioxidative defence mechanism of leaves and roots. In this regard mangrove seedlings of both species were treated with five different concentrations of four heavy metals and different time durations (15, 30, 45 and 60 days) for ascorbate peroxidase, catalase and superoxide dismutase in leaves and root tissues. The findings indicate that the heavy metals have significantly altered the antioxidant enzyme activities with respect of metals concentration and duration of exposure. With extended exposure higher antioxidant activities was observed in metal treated roots and leaves at higher concentrations. A pronounced stimulation (P<0.001) of CAT activity in both roots and leaves of A. marina occurred after 15 days of stress (38.3 and 26.6 µmol/mg protein/min) at 1 MHM. Our analysis also found that roots have shown greater activity in protecting against reactive oxygen species (ROS). Among the roots of two mangroves SOD activity in marina showed better tolerance towards metals stress (9.26 U/mg protein at 15 MHM) compare to mucronata (6.09 U/mg protein at 10 MHM). APX showed maximum stimulation at 20 MHM in leaves (19.130 µmol/mg protein/min) and at 10 MHM in roots (19.02 µmol/mg protein/min) of A. marina after 30 days metals treated plant. Hence, it confirms that the antioxidative defence system plays a critical role in A. marina and R. mucronata to tolerate the multiple heavy metals stress. However, A. marina showed greater antioxidant activity especially catalyst enzyme activity as compared to R. mucronata, which is well evident by its dominancy in the region.

Para tanto, o momento, planejado para fomentação de reflexões e compartilhamento de vivências e experiências, sucedeu-se por intermédio do diálogo entre as mediadoras, mestrandas do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Ensino de Ciências e Matemática da Universidade Federal do Amazonas, e os discentes ingressantes do Programa. Tais discussões fundamentaram-se no processo de construção formativa continuada do professor pesquisador no Ensino de Ciências e Matemática mediante o cenário pandêmico atual, assim como nos vislumbres acerca dos desafios e posturas exigidas para o exercício docente desse profissional. Após o desenvolvimento da Roda de Conversa, constatou-se que os acadêmicos ingressantes possuíam dúvidas e anseios semelhantes aos apresentados pelas mediadoras, quando estavam na mesma condição, o que viabilizou a promoção de um espaço de interatividade e possíveis soluções para as indagações levantadas pelos participantes.

Authors: Giusfredi Federico , Pisaniello Valerio
Published: July 2021

In this paper, we will offer an edition andcommentaryof the fragment KUB 37.122, usually referred to as a Samenliste, but generally not included among the lexical lists from the Hattusa archives. We will also discuss some peculiarities of the contents, the syllabary,and the graphemics of the text, and we will try to contextualize the text within the complex scenario of the Akkadian texts written, or copied, in the Hittite capital city.
Servant leadership and power
Authors: Tangen Karl Inge
Published: July 2021

This is an explorative study of the relationship between power and servant leadership from a theological perspective. It is argued that Robert K. Greenleaf, Tom Marshall and Yvonne Bradley have provided useful theoretical perspectives on this relationship that may be used to generate important theological research questions. The nature of legitimate power is understood differently based on the underlying anthropology and worldview promoted by these theorists. For Greenleaf, servant leadership is synonymous with legitimate power. His theory of servant leadership is shaped by a religiously indeterminate moral vision of the world and includes a number of moral virtues. Bradley rejects Greenleaf’s model based on a conception of Christian Realism. For Marshall, legitimate power is identical with the character and virtues of servant leadership as this is revealed in Christ. For both Greenleaf and Marshall, the preferred mode of power is persuasion and moral modeling, yet under certain circumstances use of coercive power may be applied according to certain criteria. The study argues that the perspective of virtue ethics and phronetic analyses are useful to advance our understanding of both servant leadership and the dilemmas of power. Yet, such an approach also requires a systematical theological horizon that is sketched out by asking questions from the perspectives of Trinitarian theology, Christology and Eschatology.

Gender, Church, and Leadership: A Theological Study of Young Priests in Finland and Sweden
This article explores how gender, views of pastoral work and views of ecclesiology interact among young priests in the Church of Sweden and the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland. Using a survey we develop a model used to discern if the young priests emphasize leadership or serving in their pastoral work. We then compare this model with their views on e.g. sex, gender and the Church. The article shows that sex has is a significant factor in how one tends to view pastoral work. Men tend to see pastoral work more as leadership, whereas women tend to emphasize serving others. At the same time, another factor – to what degree they are enculturated in church culture and tradition – plays a role in clarifying some patterns in the data. This factor, too, interacts with sex, but in some cases it has more explanatory power than sex. The article sheds light on a polarization in views among priest in both Finland and Sweden.
How Can Strategic Leadership be Applied to the Development of the Local Church?
Authors: Jenssen Jan Inge
Published: July 2021

Whether you want to or not, strategies are formed. Increased awareness of strategic choices increases the chances that one arrives where one intends to. This is probably an important reason why some local churches work to develop and implement strategies. At the same time, the discussion in this article shows that there is very little research literature that provides a guide to how strategic leadership can be done in a good way in a local church. In this article, it is argued that the strategic leadership ideas developed in businesses can be used in the local church, taking into account the church’s peculiarities. The church’s theological-spiritual dimension must provide guidelines on how strategy processes should be designed and on the content of strategy. At the same time, strategic leadership can help support and develop the theological dimension of the church; an emphasis on strategy development would probably support the work of choosing a direction for a church, and this effort would probably contribute to creating progress in realizing the content of the strategy. Such an interaction can contribute to church development by making the church more able to be and do to what it is called to be and do. In the article, I try to apply the current knowledge base to formulate some assumptions about how the strategy process and content can be designed in the local church. Among other things, biblical material, revelation and the testing of its accuracy, time to listen to God, spiritual gifts, theological reflection, and prayer are of importance to strategic leadership in the church. These are very foreign elements in the general strategy literature but are still important for the church. If one is to be able to give better and more concrete advice on strategic leadership in local churches, it is necessary to examine in more detail how such work takes place today and how it can support the church’s theological-spiritual identity and development. Furthermore, closer theological studies are needed to discuss how the theological-spiritual dimension should influence strategic leadership in the local church.
Editorial for the Tenth International Translation Conference: Translation Beyond the Margins-Doha, 26–27 March 2019
Authors: Kockaert Hendrik J.
Published: July 2021

It is my pleasure and honor to present the proceedings of the 10th International Translation Conference, which are the result of a careful selection by peer reviewers. This special issue in QScience Connect Journals is dedicated to the papers submitted to the 10th International Translation Conference “Translation Beyond the Margins.” The Call for Papers for this conference invited contributions that fit in the following thematic area:

“Translation, by nature, deals with margins. Translators and interpreters still hold a marginal position in society, as they often work in the shadow, and go unseen, even though global economy and politics hinge on their work. Translation Studies (TS) holds a similar position in the Humanities and the Social Sciences. This has multifold consequences on professional recognition, leads to further marginalization of vulnerable minorities or invisible end-users, publics and audiences, and has an impact on the advancement of knowledge in and beyond translation.

As a discipline, Translation Studies challenges and transcends disciplinary frontiers, as it converges with and diverges from sister disciplines of the Humanities and Social Sciences, while mapping new territories in dialogue with other domains. Translation Studies not only crosses over in terms of the subject matters of the materials (verbal, auditory, visual, or otherwise) it works with, but also imports, appropriates and expands on knowledge and methods from other disciplines. In so doing, Translation Studies contributes to advancing new knowledge in interrelated domains of enquiry.

One of the remits of higher education, and of science in general, is to expand the borders of knowledge and that can only be achieved if researchers, teachers, students, professionals and all those involved in reflective practices look beyond the margins of what is presently known. Looking beyond the margins may mean to tackle topics that have never been addressed, or to address mainstream topics from a new angle. It may also mean taking the viewpoint of other disciplines or simply running the risk when applying innovative or crosscutting approaches to practices and/or research.” [https://tii.qa/en/tenth-annual-international-translation-conference]

The 10th International Translation Conference Program was an excellent occasion to start enriching the conference experience by inviting the speakers for a Call for Papers in a peer-reviewed venue so that their conference presentations be anchored in an academic journal, which could at the same time been seen as a Festschrift celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Translation Conferences organized by the Translation and Interpreting Institute (TII), part of Hamad bin Khalifa University’s College of Humanities and Social Sciences. As a result of the Call, we received five outstanding papers and we are proud of bundling these in a first special issue of QScience Connect, the academic open access publication of HBKU.
The visual aspect in the transfer – translation of the cultural code
Authors: Liseling-Nilsson Sylvia
Published: July 2021

This article presents the adaptation of the visual elements and how the illustrations have been adapted to fit new cultural and social context. The Swedish original of Astrid Lindgren’s book and the Polish translation will serve as the research material.

In the current analysis of the graphic aspect of Astrid Lindgren’s books published in Poland, Edwin Panofsky’s iconological approach to the image is combined with Roland Barthes’ semiotic approach. The application of these two methods enables an explanation to be formulated as to why the visual representation of certain elements of the Swedish cultural code disappeared in translation. The represented world in the original differs from the represented world in the translation, especially in the recreation of the Swedish village. In the Polish illustrations, the Swedish village setting has been placed higher up the social ladder than in the original illustrations, thereby avoiding a direct portrayal of village life, traditionally regarded as inferior in Polish culture. Polonization also happens in the purifying strategies adopted by the illustrators. Because of the reduction of illustrations representing children and adults engaged in agricultural work, as well as children in direct contact with nature or animals, the book’s character has considerably altered through its adjustment to the Polish cultural code, mainly in the protagonists’ outward appearance as inhabitants of the town.

In the Polish illustrations, a folklorization also appears, through the introduction of folkoric elements from the region of southern Poland symbolizing the superior status of this culture over the peasant culture of other regions.

In addition, the illustrations that accompany the translations are anachronistic in relation to the time setting of the plot as related in the text.
