Published: December 2023

Статья посвящена исследованию архитектурно-планировочной среды северорусских исторических поселений на примере села Кянда и деревни Солозеро Онежского района Архангельской области. Онежский (Лямецкий) берег Белого моря, где расположены исследуемые поселения, относится к прибрежной арктической зоне, характеризуется высокой строительной активностью в период освоения и заселения Русского Севера. Он сохранил богатейшее историко-культурное наследие. Изучение исторических поселений прибрежной арктической зоны позволяет получить новые знания о традиционной архитектуре, организации пространства жизни, понять принципы органичности в пла-нировке и застройке.

Работа основана на архивных исследованиях по истории поселений Кянда и Солозеро. Планировочное развитие и архитектуру исследуемых поселений иллюстрируют исторические графические материалы. Кроме архивных исследований, в работе использован метод полевой этнографической работы для сбора воспоминаний местных жителей об образе жизни, промысловой и хозяйственной деятельности, утраченных архитектурных объектах.

Совокупность материалов натурных, архивных и этнографических исследований позволила раскрыть причины формирования структуры рассматриваемых поселений, получить новые знания об архитектуре деревянных храмов XVII–XIX веков, а также выявить направления трансформации сельской среды в ХХ века. Выполнены графические реконструкции храмового комплекса села Кянда и окружающего исторического ландшафта. Анализ пространственной структуры поселений послужил для выявления принципов их организации.
Единство образа и регулярность пространства: к 300-летию основания Академии наук и художеств в Санкт-Петербурге и первого университета Российской империи
Authors: Швидковский Дмитрий , Шмонин Дмитрий
Published: December 2023

В статье, которая посвящена юбилею Российской академии наук и Санкт-Петербургского государственного университета, даётся оценка истории архитектурно-планировочного замысла и развития материального наследия с точки зрения как опыта организации научно-технологических прорывов, так и социально-культурной, духовной составляющей единого научно-образовательного пространства, создание которого началось волей императора Петра I. Единство замысла основателя Санкт-Петербурга отразилось в полной мере в пространстве реальном, не только в архитектуре и градостроительстве, но и в целом в смысловых основах пространственной организации императорской России, наследие которой мы можем и должны использовать в сегодняшнем преобразовании нашей страны, которая вновь нуждается в технологическом прорыве в условиях глобального противостояния со «старыми центрами силы».
Non-specialist secondary mathematics teachers learning in study groups by engaging with activities of algebra
Authors: Hatisaru Vesife
Published: December 2023

Teaching ‘out-of-field’ is a present obstacle in mathematics education in many countries, and developing professional learning programs aimed at upskilling non-specialist teachers is urgent. A teacher study group was established wherein two non-specialist teachers of mathematics (Years 7–10; aged 12–16) engaged with algebra to develop a deeper understanding of the subject and its teaching. The study group lasted one school year, during which the teachers actively participated in the learning. Multiple data sources were collected, including reflection forms, open-ended questionnaires, and a storytelling form. Analysis of the teachers’ solutions to a sample of algebra problems and self-reports suggests that the study group enabled teachers to acquire new knowledge/skills in mathematics pedagogy, gain a new understanding of how student thinking and understanding develop, adapt new classroom instruction strategies, develop ability/confidence in problem-solving, and develop new knowledge/ability in algebra. The study findings contribute to our understanding of supporting non-specialist mathematics teachers’ professional development.

Published: December 2023

Mathematics is pivotal in the contemporary technology-driven world. However, poor mathematical performance continues to be a concern in many countries. Guided by Mathematics in a Cultural Context (MCC) framework, this article investigates the similarities, differences, and potential reasons behind early numeracy achievement in South Africa and China.  Applying a qualitative research approach, selected teachers, parents, and government officials in the two countries were interviewed for their views on the cultural context and pedagogical practices that potentially impact mathematics teaching and learning. The findings confirmed the multifaceted and interconnected nature of mathematics teaching and learning. However, the findings raise questions about the efficacy of certain practices on mathematics learning and achievement, including the teaching approach, the value of different kinds of motivations, and methods to inspire motivation. This finding suggests the importance of practicing key mathematics concepts in building a solid foundation and confidence in mathematics.
Mansai in the Marriage Tradition of the Banggai Ethnic in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia: A Living Sunnah Perspective
Authors: Puyu Darsul S. , Umar Subehan Khalik , Hanis Hasdin , Arifin Bustanul , Abili Muhammad
Published: December 2023

The Mansai tradition is the custom of collecting material assistance before the wedding to lighten the burden on the prospective groom. This procession becomes a problem whether it is in harmony with the Prophet's orders. This study is qualitative research using the approach of living traditions and anthropology of Islamic law. Living sunnah is used to analyze the concept of hadith that lives in the Banggai community, while the anthropology of Islamic law analyzes the practice of mansai which is a tradition in marriage. Data was collected by gathering information through in-depth interviews and literature studies. The field findings were then analyzed using the perspective of living sunnah and integrated with the customs of the people of the Banggai Tribe, Central Sulawesi. The selected hadiths are those that have been validated for the quality of their sanad and matan. This study found that the mansai tradition means that the prospective groom invites his family and community to bear the funds or assets as wedding expenses which will be handed over to the woman (mangantokon sai). Mansai as a custom has become a habit in accordance with Islamic law and has become a living sunnah. The main message in the Mansai tradition is to help each other and ease the burden on Muslim brothers and sisters in the process of marriage (banikah) in the Banggai Tribe community. Anthropologically, mansai as a tradition that has been accepted by the Banggai people for a long time, functions as a unifying medium, maintains the practice of deliberation and overcomes social problems.
Determination of Auspicious Days in Wedding Traditions in Mandar, West Sulawesi: Perspective of Islamic Law
Authors: Sadat Anwar , Tahmid Nur Muhammad , Sadik M. , Baharuddin A. Zamakhsyari
Published: December 2023

Determination of auspicious days is a discourse that still causes polemics and is often considered to be contrary to Islamic law. This study aims to discuss the determination of auspicious days in the Mandar wedding traditions in the context of Islamic law. This empirical legal study used a multiapproach framework that included the theory of social change and the theory of Islamic law, especially al-'urf (social tradition) and al-maslahah (public interest). Data were collected by means of in-depth interviews and literature reviews of scientific articles, textbooks, and books on Islamic law. The data were then analyzed through data display using the aforementioned theories. The results of the study revealed that determining auspicious days, practiced by the majority of the Mandar people prior to organizing a marriage, has been considered a custom and in accordance with Islamic law. Further, the Qur’an and hadith, as the sources of Islamic law, have also indicated that there are auspicious times and days e.g., Friday, known as sayyid al-ayyām (leader of the days). The determination of auspicious days in marriage has been adjusted to follow social changes, government policies, and Islamic laws, especially ‘urf and maslahah. Such a custom can be categorized as ‘urf shahih (good) and not 'urf fasid(deviating), with the values of public interest being for safety and blessing. The argument of this study is that in the context of Islamic law if the determination of the auspicious day does not deviate from the provisions of Islamic law, it can be accommodated as a legal consideration; yet, if it deviates from Islamic law, guidance is necessary. This is in accordance with the rules of fiqh: “preserving old things that bring benefits, and accommodating new things that are more beneficial.”

Published: December 2023

Many people continue to believe that the Islamic Law perspective of women differs from men, which tends to be based on subordinate doctrines. However, in the al-Qur'an, divine revelation proclaims that women also have Competencies which is demonstrated by various forms of narration in the language style of the Qur'an along with their prowess in the public sector based on social reality. This paper discusses the main problem, namely the competence of women in the Qur'an from the perspective of Islamic law and their work in society. This research uses a qualitative research type with the method of text analysis of the verses of the Qur'an with an interpretive science approach, as well as analysis of field data regarding the role of women in various sectors of life from the perspective of Islamic law. Data was collected through a literature study and in-depth interviews with several informants in various regions of Indonesia. The research concluded that women's competence is mentioned in the narration of the Qur’an with uslub and various language styles, showing that women have superiority and toughness according to their nature and identity. They act with the capital of intellectual, emotional, and spiritual intelligence as well as physical and psychological strength. Furthermore, women's involvement in the public sector provides clear evidence of women's abilities relevant to the verses of the Qur’an and refutes subordinate perspectives of them. Islamic law perspective recommends building a perfect mutualism symbiotic, respectful, civilized, and progressive.
The Phenomenon of Punishment at Pesantren in South Sulawesi: An Islamic Law and Islamic Education Approaches
Authors: Damopolii Muljono , Shabir U Muhammad , Burga Muhammad Alqadri
Published: December 2023

Pesantren (Islamic boarding school) is an educational institution in Indonesia that instills Islamic values in its students. In pesantren, the punishment given to students aims not to hurt, but to contain educational values. This study aims to analyze the application of punishment in pesantren. This research is qualitative with Islamic law and Islamic education approaches. The informants comprised several teachers and students of Pondok Pesantren DDI Mangkoso, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. Data were collected through observation, interview, and documentation, then analyzed using the descriptive analysis technique. The results showed that the forms of punishment applied to Islamic boarding schools were reprimands, assignments, and psychological and physical punishments. Punishment in Islamic boarding schools includes ta‘zīr in Islamic law. Even though there are written rules, in some cases, the implementation of ta‘zīr is very simple (depending on the subjectivity of the kiai or teacher), so it lacks legal certainty and only aims to give a deterrent effect to perpetrators. According to Islamic education, the punishments applied by Islamic boarding schools have met the objectives of implementing educational sanctions, namely a deterrent effect for the perpetrators and a deterrent for others. Therefore, legal certainty is not the main goal in determining and implementing punishment in Islamic boarding schools, but to improve the students’ scientific and moral quality. This research has implications for teacher innovation and various methods in Islamic boarding school education so that students participate in the educational process willingly and happily, not because they are forced or afraid of punishment.

Authors: Oliveira Denilson Araújo de
Published: December 2023

O foco da análise deste artigo é compreender como o racismo tem produzido existências desumanizadas e, concomitantemente, múltiplas formas de enfrentamento têm sido criadas. O nosso objetivo é analisar como o debate sobre segurança no Brasil tem produzido existências desumanizadas pela ideia de raça. Construímos uma análise genealógica do debate de segurança e a relação com a questão racial. Identificamos dispositivos de racialidade criados no contexto colonial-escravocrata e actualizados na cidade neoliberal como mecanismo de garantia de segurança em defesa de uma sociedade branca e burguesa. Nosso referencial teórico expressa um diálogo com as ideias de necropolítica de Achille Mbembe, colonialidade do poder Aníbal Quijano e antinegritude de João Vargas.

Published: December 2023

En este artículo nos enfocamos en el rol que juegan los afectos en la producción de conocimiento académico. Partiendo de una conceptualización del enojo como potencia, este artículo sistematiza nuestra experiencia como estudiantes latinoamericanas en el norte global. Dentro de esta experiencia colocamos el argumento de que la producción de conocimiento académico pasa por los afectos, y ponemos como ejemplo nuestra experiencia discutiendo los conceptos de colonialismo, settler colonialism y colonialidad de poder, así como los de territorio y territorialidad. Finalmente, identificamos las potencialidades, las cautelas y los retos de lo que implica reconocer los afectos como parte de la producción de conocimiento, y señalamos ciertas recomendaciones para este camino.

Published: December 2023

O artigo objetiva demonstrar o desenvolvimento de relações entre a Igreja, o Estado e o Espaço em Mossoró (RN). Esse processo revela-se crescente nos últimos anos indicando mudanças institucionais nas denominações religiosas a fim de consolidarem sua participação enquanto agentes na condução da sociedade e da política bem como na produção, apropriação e organização do espaço. Para sua elaboração, realizou-se uma pesquisa, dado a situação excepcional decorrente da Pandemia COVID-19, iniciando por revisão de metodologias e procedimentos de pesquisa, tanto no âmbito Geografia quanto em manuais específicos. O principal desafio foi realizar a verificação contemplando a observação não-participante, isto é, a apreensão de dados visuais, informações, documentos e a execução de campos reforçando a sensibilidade do olhar, padronizando seus focos a fim de se concentrarem em questões relevantes. Como resultado, a constatação da expansão das igrejas evangélicas, das relações que desenvolve no cotidiano com o espaço e a política local, um modus operandi que, simbolizado no discurso da sobrevivência dos valores religiosos, objetiva ampliar seu poder a partir da alteração dos limites constitucionais e sua materialização no e através do espaço político, circunscrito pelas ações das instituições e delimitado pelas regras preexistentes e estratégias da política e da coerção.
ECOFEMINISMO E CONSERVAÇÃO DA NATUREZA: UM ESTUDO DE CASO SOBRE A IMPORTÂNCIA DAS MULHERES AFROCOLOMBIANAS PARA A PESCA ARTESANAL
Authors: Bonfá Neto Dorival , Souza Rangel Kátia
Published: December 2023

Partindo do tema ecofeminismo no contexto da afluência das demandas feministas às reivindicações ambientais e sociais, este artigo tem como objetivo aprofundar o debate sobre o tema e demonstrar a função social das mulheres afrocolombianas do Pacífico Chocoano para a pesca artesanal. Justificando-o pela necessidade de dar visibilidade ao tema e ao estudo de caso em tela, percorremos a hipótese de que as mulheres afrocolombianas são responsáveis por diversas atividades pesqueiras e garantir a segurança alimentar de suas famílias e comunidades. No que se refere à metodologia de pesquisa, orientamo-nos pelo materialismo histórico e dialético, por meio do qual compreendemos as desigualdades de gênero no bojo das desigualdades sociais e da luta de classes. Quanto às técnicas de pesquisa, realizamos levantamento bibliográfico, análise documental, trabalho de campo e registro de entrevistas, a partir do que concluímos que as mulheres afrocolombianas vivenciam a desvalorização das atividades que realizam e limitações de acesso aos recursos que utilizam, mas ressurgem em seus contextos sociais e culturais como empreendedoras, líderes de associações, projetos e agitadoras culturais.

MAPEAMENTO DE TIPOLOGIAS DE VEGETAÇÃO DE CAATINGA A PARTIR DE IMAGENS ORBITAIS E GEOBIA: ESTUDO DE CASO DA BACIA HIDROGRÁFICA DO RIO TAPEROÁ, SEMIÁRIDO BRASILEIRO
Authors: Sperle da Silva Diego Vicente , Bernadete Madureira Cruz Carla , Albuquerque Xavier Rafael , Seabra Vinicius
Published: December 2023

A caatinga é um bioma exclusivamente brasileiro localizado no semiárido do país, sendo paradoxalmente um dos biomas menos estudados e mapeados. Esse bioma é repleto de espécies endêmicas e possui grande variedade paisagística, apesar de estar sob constante estresse hídrico. Devido às dinâmicas naturais sazonais do semiárido, onde em períodos secos a vegetação perde a maior parte das folhas, o mapeamento de vegetação de caatinga por sensoriamento remoto é desafiador. Neste trabalho, foi utilizado duas datas diferentes de imagens Landsat 8, uma para o período úmido e outra para o período seco para mapear diferentes tipologias de caatinga descritas por  CAVALCANTI (2014). Utilizou-se GEOBIA para a modelagem do conhecimento das classes escolhidas, a partir de parâmetros conhecidos de cada uma das classes. Foi realizado um trabalho de campo para coleta de dados e pontos de controle, e posterior validação da modelagem e mapeamento final. Obteve-se índice Kappa “quase perfeito” para todas as classes. Estes resultados mostram o potencial de uso da modelagem utilizada no mapeamento de um bioma tão desafiador de cartografar como a caatinga em outras áreas

Authors: Vieira João Luiz da Silva , Rosa Wedmo Teixeira
Published: December 2023

O povo Xukuru do Ororubá, cujo território está localizado nos municípios de Pesqueira e Poção-PE, a 215 km da capital pernambucana, passou por séculos de recriminação de seus rituais, perdurando até os movimentos por retomada das terras, na década de 1990. Após reaverem o território, os/as Xukuru do Ororubá puderam reestabelecer suas práticas sagradas livremente, sem a importunação dos fazendeiros intrusos no território. Com isso, espaços de rituais surgiram ou foram reativados, os Terreiros de Toré. Nesses locais sagrados, os/as frequentadores/as se encontram com os encantados e recebem orientações para sua vida espiritual e cotidiana, que reverberam nas dinâmicas da comunidade. O Terreiro da Mata Sagrada da Boa Vista, reativado 2012, vem se tornando notório no fortalecimento da etnicidade e das tradicionais práticas sagradas do povo em questão. Nesse interim, a pesquisa objetiva analisar e compreender as relações simbólico-afetivas entre indígenas e o Terreiro de Toré da Boa Vista. Para tanto, recorreu-se principalmente ao método da história oral, a fim de que os/as próprios/as indígenas narrem suas vivências no lugar, e a observação participante, para melhor compreender as relações entre indígenas e lugar sagrado. O espaço sagrado do Terreiro da Boa Vista enaltece a identidade territorial do povo Xukuru do Ororubá, bem como sua indianidade e relação com os encantados e a Natureza. É um espaço que reflete as dinâmicas territoriais que envolvem os indivíduos que vivenciam aquele lugar e se afirmam a partir deles.
MAPEAMENTO DA FRAGILIDADE AMBIENTAL A PROCESSOS EROSIVOS NO PARQUE ESTADUAL SERRA DA BOA ESPERANÇA (MG), BRASIL
Authors: Ribeiro Rodrigues Neto Manoel , Felícia Marujo Ferreira Marta , Gustavo Messias Cassiano
Published: December 2023

O Parque Estadual Serra da Boa Esperança (PESBE) é uma Unidade de Conservação (UC) criada para garantir a preservação do ecossistema serrano local, mas que sofre pressões antrópicas que podem culminar em problemas ambientais, como a degradação do solo. Nesse sentido, o objetivo deste artigo foi mapear e analisar a Fragilidade Ambiental (FA) à ocorrência de processos erosivos no parque, localizado no município de Boa Esperança, Minas Gerais, Brasil. A metodologia utilizada foi desenvolvida por Garofalo e Ferreira (2015) e emprega técnicas de análise geoespacial em sistema de informação geográfica (SIG). O mapa de FA foi gerado por meio da combinação de variáveis geoambientais, às quais se atribuíram pesos estimados a partir de sua associação com a ocorrência de processos erosivos. Esses pesos foram calculados por meio do teste estatístico Kolmogorov-Smirnov. Os resultados demonstraram que as áreas com maior FA estão localizadas nos níveis mais altos da Serra da Boa Esperança, no setor central do parque, onde também estão localizadas as nascentes do ribeirão Águas Verdes. Já os menores índices de FA foram identificados predominantemente no front da Serra da Boa Esperança na porção Sul da UC e na bacia do ribeirão Verde. Conclui-se que valores elevados de FA estão fortemente relacionados à baixa densidade de cobertura vegetal e à alta densidade de vias de circulação e, portanto, recomenda-se que sejam tomadas medidas para cessar as atividades conflitantes visando evitar a aceleração de processos erosivos.
The “Winter Morning” by Alexander Pushkin: the Tradition of English Translation
Authors:   Lomonosov Moscow State University, Nenarokova Maria R. ,   A.M. Gorky Institute of World Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences
Published: December 2023

The article focuses on the problem of reception of translations of Russian classical poetry in the English-speaking culture. The object of study is the poem “The Winter Morning” by A.S. Pushkin, translated into English from 1888 to 2016. The subject of study was the particularities of conveying the content of Pushkin’s poem in English translations. The material for the research was twelve translations of Pushkin’s poem “The Winter Morning”, made by both English and Russian native speakers. The main objective of the research is to determine, with the help of the close reading method, what difficulties translators of Russian poetry may face while translating the poem in question. The study showed that translation of culturally specific vocabulary may become a problem for translators, since some of the realia are typical of Russian everyday life. Sometimes translators introduce into their texts the realia that are lacking in the original. The “key words” of Russian culture are almost impossible to translate due to the differences in the cultural codes of Russia and the English-speaking world. Due to the abundance and variety of texts, close reading of Pushkin’s translations can serve as an excellent training for translators.
Late Antique Paraphrases and Centons as a Special Method of the Interpretation of Texts
Authors:   A.M. Gorky Institute of World Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Aleksandrova Tatiana L.
Published: December 2023

The paper gives an overview of the history of Paraphrase in Late Antiquity, considers its different types (school grammatic Paraphrase: the tutorial Paraphrase composed by the teacher, literary Paraphrase in verse or in prose and so on). The literary Paraphrase is based on the principle of competitiveness. For this reason, Paraphrases of classical works of the ancient literature are considerably rare. The same principle of competitiveness gave rise to numerous Biblical Paraphrases, both that of New and Old Testament, especially popular in the Latin World, but existing in the Greek World as well. Nevertheless, the embellishment of the text that seemed lacking of literariness is not the only task of Biblical Paraphrases. Each Paraphrase to one degree or another represents a new interpretation of the text. The Centos existing both in Latin and Greek worlds are close to the Paraphrases. In comparison with common Paraphrases a more significant role plays intertextuality involving not only Biblical text but the Classical texts, whence the verbal material is taken, as well. Paraphrases and Centos are genres undeservedly underestimated. They are of interest as a special way of conveying to the reader the content of authoritative texts.
The Role of Commentaries in the Formation of the Japanese Literary Tradition
Authors:   A.M. Gorky Institute of World Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Dyakonova Elena M. ,   HSE University
Published: December 2023

Classical studies were the mainstream of Far Eastern traditional culture. They structured many aspects of literature, philosophy, science, and sometimes dominated them. A study of the relationship between classics and their commentaries is central for an understanding of the intellectual history of the countries of the Far East, of which Japan is one. Commentaries made tribute to the canonization of literary monuments, but did this without regard of the artistic and intellectual character of the classical text. Commentaries to the classical texts of ancient Japan, in particular to the first poetic anthology “Collection of Ten Thousand Leaves” (Manyōsyū), are shaping up in the epoch of Heian (9–12 c.) as an attempt to restore the Japanese outlook on this poetry, written in the 8 c. in Japanese, but in Chinese hieroglyphs. This classical poetry has acquired a new form: it is now being written in hieroglyphs and Japanese sillabary (hiragana). Several types of literary criticism existed: treatises on literary works, commentaries on classical monuments, compilations of anthologies (selection of literary texts for the constitution of the highly constructed collections) as well as poetic contests. Commentators mostly concentrated on understanding the sense of the separate words and phrases but the general meaning of the text remained behind-the-scenes.
“Sanzijing” in Russian: Translation and Commentary by N.J. Bichurin
Authors:   A.M. Gorky Institute of World Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Zakharova Natalya V.
Published: December 2023

The research is devoted to an analysis of the translation and commentary to the Chinese classical text — “Troеslovie” (“San tse jing”), made by N.J. Bichurin and published in 1829. The text dates from the 13th century, the authorship is attributed to Wang Ilin. “San tse jing” was one of the first books to be addressed by Christian missionaries arriving in China. The book attracted them to the saturation of cultural, religious, historical and literary information and external simple language of presentation. Bichurin’s translation became a transplant of the Chinese text of the 13th century into a new socio-cultural discourse and was provided with a deployed, occupying two-thirds of the volume of the book, commentary. The study shows that thanks to the comment of N.J. Bichurin, a large Chinese text created in a written language other than the spoken language becomes available to the Russian reader. N.J. Bichurin, in his desire to convey the meaning of the Chinese original as accurately as possible and transfer all explanations to the commentary, anticipated the approach of Russian sinologists to the translation of Chinese classical texts.

There is growing curiosity in the exploration of novel renewable resources as alternatives for the production of protein hydrolysates (PH). Thus, the undiscovered potential of utilizing residual biomass from Spirulina, particularly after lipid extraction, for food production presents an encouraging avenue for further research. The aim of this study is to examine the technological and antioxidant properties of protein hydrolysates (PH) obtained from the leftover biomass of Spirulina. Around 70% of biomass was obtained as residue after lipid extraction. The yield and protein content of the PH from residual biomass were 48% and 78% respectively. PH had a high solubility at acidic pH-5. The emulsification power and foaming capacity of PH were 56 m2/g and 275% respectively. PH had a higher ratio of α-helix to ß-sheet (3.4) compared with the raw (1.6) and residual biomass (0.7), which indicates a high digestibility of PH. The antioxidant capacity of PH by reducing power assay, DPPH and ABTS were 80, 1746, 618 µM Trolox g-1 respectively. The findings suggest that PH could be used as a potential ingredient in food and pharmaceutical industry, thus providing a sustainable valorization to protein rich residual biomass.

In this study, 62 species of diatoms were identified. Spatio-temporal analysis of diatom community composition revealed that Amphora lineata Gregory, Amphora ovalis (Kutzing), Amphora proteus Gregory, Bacteriastrum hyalinum var. Princeps (Castracane) Ikari, Cyclotella striata (Kutz), Grun. Mastogloya Arabica, navicula sp, and surirella armoricana were the main species observed during the study period. A study was conducted to identify the abundance of diatoms and environmental factors that affect the growth of diatoms in the region and to identify major changes in diatom species according to seasonal changes. Community analysis revealed that diversity, abundance, uniformity and low winter season while dominance were pre-monsoon. In this record non-quantitative multidimensional scaling method (MDS) of the Bray-Curtis ordination, the highest similarity (82.55%) was observed for the abundance of diatoms at observation sites 2 and 3 before and after the 2014 monsoon. 1, Art. The similarity for Monsoon 3 in 2015 was the lowest at 16.32%. Comparison of our results with previous studies revealed that nitrate and ammonia are the main factors that have the greatest influence on diatom distribution. Community structure studies have shown that the pre-monsoon and monsoon season are most favorable for diatom production in the Pamban region of Mannar Bay.

Agricultural food waste such as fruit and vegetable scraps are a significant resource for farmers who can use these wastes to grow new plant. The valorization process involves using these agricultural food waste to produce animal feed and then using the resulting animal feed to produce meat or milk. Currently, most of the agricultural food waste is used in the form of methane gas, which is a potent greenhouse gas that cause global warming. The value-added products which are fine chemicals, nutraceuticals, antioxidants, bio-actives, biopolymers and many more are used to increase the value of a product. They help to reduce the cost of production and insure a high profit margin for companies. The average American throws away nearly two pounds of food per which add up to $2,275 worth of food that is wasted every year. It’s estimated that households in India waste 50 kilograms of food per person year or 68,760,163 tonnes a year. It is also estimated that the average Indian household throws away over $1,200 worth of food each year. There are several valorization methods which are sustainable and profitable to manage. The most common methods of valorization are pyrolysis, composting, landfilling, and gasification.

Among the horticulture crops, fruits and vegetables are the most commonly used commodity. Moreover, it is consumed in different forms, like raw or processed, due to its health- promoting factors and nutrition attributes. Further, due to the increase in population, demand for such commodities is also on the rise, leading to more significant production, resulting in wastage during processing that causes economic, nutritional and environmental problems. Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) reveals that 60% of the wastage is from fruits and vegetables, among all other food commodities. Furthermore, 25% to 30% of whole fruits or vegetables are processing waste. Fruits and vegetables are categorized under perishable and semi-perishable, where the utilization is limited unless processed. Moreover, some technologies play a significant role in valorizing fruits and vegetables with different processing techniques. The bioactive compounds and their nutritional benefits are made available by processing and preservation methods for utilization on extended shelf life. This chapter will briefly discuss thermal and non-thermal technologies with processing techniques that valorize fruits and vegetables.

Teaching that includes exposing systematic inequalities, racism, and sexism is facing challenges in Florida, USA. While the news media covers the new legislation in Florida, laws that are being replicated across the United States and dovetail with similar political intrusions into academia across the globe, the implications are found with how practices have changed. Reflecting on two decades of teaching on race and ethnicity in global perspective, this article describes the anthropology course offered at an honors college in terms of the teaching style, structure, and content. An anthropology of optimism and hope animates the pedagogy. Yet the course faces scrutiny under 2022 state legislation and is no longer being offered at New College of Florida.
Šibenski kršćanski robovi u Napulju i otkup šibenskoga plemića Ivana Krstitelja Zavorovića iz turskoga zarobljeništva
Authors: Kurelac Iva
Published: December 2023

Polazeći od vrlo slabe istraženosti porobljavanja i ropstva u Šibeniku i na području šibenskoga distrikta u renesansi i ranome novom vijeku u periodu intenzivnih osmanskih osvajanja, u radu se analiziraju i objavljuju dva povijesna izvora iz prve polovine 16. i s početka 17. stoljeća koji iz prve ruke svjedoče o sudbini ljudi odvedenih u roblje s pograničnih područja prema Osmanskom Carstvu (iz šibenske Zagore i Ugarske). U prvome dokumentu riječ je o skupini kršćanskih robova s područja Šibenika i šibenskoga distrikta pod osmanskom upravom, prisilno odvedenih u Napulj, vjerojatno u prvoj polovini 16. stoljeća, gdje se smatraju Turcima, a drugi izvor donosi svjedočenje Šibenskoga kaptola o otkupu šibenskoga plemića Ivana Krstitelja Zavorovića, sina šibenskoga humanista i povjesničara Dinka Zavorovića (oko 1540. – 1608.), iz turskoga zarobljeništva 1606., kamo je dospio 1605. kao pripadnik ugarskih vojnih snaga koje su tada pokušavale obraniti Ostrogon od osmanskih napada. Oba se izvora najprije stavljaju u kontekst povijesnih okolnosti u kojima su nastali, a potom se razmatraju u odnosu na dosadašnja saznanja o ropstvu na Jadranu i u Ugarskoj u renesansi i ranome novom vijeku, nastojeći naposljetku utvrditi u kojoj se mjeri sudbina kršćanskih robova i zarobljenika sa šibenskoga područja uklapa u tadašnje uzuse postupanja s robovima i zarobljenicima.
