La  Vie de Marc l'Athénien (BHG 1039-1041)

Edition critique du texte de la Vie de Marc l'Athénien, dont le témoin le plus ancien date du 12ème siècle. Le récit, composé probablement au 8ème ou 9ème s., se réfère à l'époque primitive de la vie monastique en Egypte. Dans l'Introduction sont discutés les divers emprunts à l'hagiographie ancienne qui composent la personnalité du saint, la structure du récit, la tradition manuscrite et les principes de l'établissement du texte; en appendice, quelques remarques sur le temps de la narration.

La Dynastie Macédonienne et les Grands Comnènes de Trébizonde. Éléments historiques dans les «Miracles de St. Eugène» par Jean-Joseph Lazaropoulos

La Relation des Miracles de St. Eugène, écrite par Jean-Joseph Lazaropoulos, évêque de Trébizonde (1364-68), comprend un grand nombre d'éléments historiques sur les empereurs de la dynastie Macédonienne - surtout sur Basile II et les premières années difficiles de son règne, quand il devait faire face à plusieurs attentats d'usurpation. Comme il est démontré dans cette étude, la source où Lazaropoulos puise ses informations est sûrement Jean Zonaras; de même l'étude essaie d'expliquer comment Lazaropoulos, lorsqu'il est question de Basile II, a voulu faire allusion à l'état turbulent de sa propre époque et à la réaction de l'aristocratie de Trébizonde contre Alexis III le Grand Comnène.

 Aimericus rex Cipri

Au premier seigneur Franc de Chypre Guy de Lusignan succéda en l'an 1192 son frère, connu dans l'historiographie sous le nom d'«Amaury de Lusignan» (avec pour seule exception essentielle l'oeuvre de l'historien anglais sir G. Hill).

Mais le nom de ce prince, qui en septembre de l'an 1197 fut couronné roi de Chypre et peu après roi de Jérusalem, se trouve cité dans les sources historiques contemporaines ou quelque peu postérieures à son époque sous plusieurs graphies du nom Aimery et diffère clairement et nettement par rapport au nom Amaury, nom sous lequel sont mentionnés le roi de Jérusalem Amaury I et d'autres nobles Francs qui ont opéré dans l'Orient Latin à cette période.

Après un examen assidu des sources et de l'historiographie, il devient évident que le nom du premier roi Franc de Chypre était Americ(us)>Aimery. Ce nom fut écrit de façon erronée comme Almeric(us)>Amalric>Amaury, nom passé sous des formes très variées dans la Chronographie postérieure et dans l'historiographie.

On propose, donc, la restitution par l'historiographie moderne de son vrai nom au premier roi Franc de Chypre et neuvième roi de Jérusalem Aimery de Lusignan et de le rendre en grec sous les formes Αιμερὺ ou Αιμέριχος.

 Notes sur l'image de l'autre à Byzance

Les approches et les méthodes d'analyse affinées par les anthropologues et les ethnologues ont enrichi le bagage de l'historien qui, en ce qui concerne Byzance, ne paraît pas toujours prêt à les adopter. Or le thème de l'alterité ou de l'identité nationale nous oblige d'aborder nos sources d'un nouveau point de vue.
A titre d'exemple notons l'Alexiade d'Anne Comnène, représentant bien les attitudes de son époque envers 1'«autre». De ce texte ressort clairement la conception d'un espace hiérarchisé: celui de l'empereur, celui des Romains et celui délégué aux peuples «étrangers», voire «barbares».

L'auteur montre que l'un des deux actes du Xllème siècle des archives de Lembiôtissa, le n° 105 de l'édition Miklosich-Müller, est constitué de fragments compilés de deux actes distincts. Il s'agit de deux actes qui concernent un conflit entre le monastère du Pantokrator de Constantinople et la veuve de Konstomyrès. Le premier est l'acte d'un moine envoyé par le monastère du Pantokrator dans la région de Smyrne, tandis que le second est l'acte d'un fonctionnaire civil. L'auteur essaie d'établir les circonstances et les dates de l'émission de ces deux actes. En annexe, édition de l'«acte».

 Thèbes, centre de commerce et de communications au 12e s.

Thèbes était une des étapes les plus importantes sur l'axe terrestre transversal qui assurait la communication entre le Péloponnèse et la Grèce centrale et septentrionale. Cet axe qui passait par Corinthe, Thèbes, Zètouni, Larissa et aboutissait à Thessalonique où il faisait jonction avec la Via Egnatia, a acquis une grande importance à partir du Xle siècle, lorsque le danger bulgare fut écarté du sud des Balkans. Il était souvent préféré à la voie maritime pour les déplacements des marchands entre Corinthe, Thèbes, Thessalonique et parfois même Constantinople. Conséquence de la revalorisation de la route terrestre fut le développement de nouveaux centres de commerce et d'échelles maritimes à des endroits où l'axe se rapprochait du littoral.

La floraison de l'artisanat de soie à Thèbes a entraîné le développement dans cette ville d'une classe aisée d'artisans, différenciée nettement de l'aristocratie locale. Les Vénitiens étant les seuls marchands Italiens qui aient pu obtenir la permission impériale de faire commerce à Thèbes, il est possible que les nouveaux centres de commerce n'aient pas seulement répondu à l'impératif de trouver de nouveaux marchés d'approvisionnement ou de nouveaux débouchés commerciaux; ils ont sans doute permis aux autres marchands étrangers, auxquels l'accès au marché de soieries de Thèbes était interdit, de contrecarrer l'interdiction et de se procurer par les Vénitiens des tissus de soie dans les autres marchés de l'espace géographique de la Grèce centrale où ils pouvaient se rendre sans difficultés et où ils entretenaient même des quartiers. C'était probablement le cas d'Halmyros, à l'entrée du golfe Pagasètikos.

The magister Theoktistos and Theodore the Studite: Monastic Life and Policy.

The quaestor Theoktistos was among the leading officials who took part in the conspiracy of the logothete Nicephorus against the empress Irene (802). He was identical with the magister Theoktistos who, as a supreme member of the Senate, received in 808 the letter No. 24 by Theodore the Studite. With this letter Theodore hoped that he could persuade magister Theoktistos to intervene to the emperor Nicephorus I, in order to avoid banishment. The magister, however, did not play a prominent role under the reign of Nicephorus and Theodore was forced to abandon the City.

During the brief reign of Michael I, where we can observe the weakening of the imperial institution and the simultaneous uprise of the senatorial power as well as the rise of the fanatic monks (the monastery of Studion experienced a significant prosperity at that time) magister Theoktistos and Theodore the Studite had then powerfully participated in political life and had played a crucial role in it.

Probably the same Theoktistos received one more letter (No 123) by Theodore the Studite after the accession of Leo V.

 The Slavs in the Athonite Monastery of Zographou

The article analyzes the prosopographical data concerning the presence of Slavs in the athonite monastery of Zographou. The chronological frame of the survey extends from 980 to 1650. In the period 1169-1661 are identified eighty three monks of Slavic origin. Twenty nine of them (34,9%) use Bulgarian vernacular and in five cases this vernacular seems to be Bulgarian dialect of Macedonian type. The monks using Serbian dialect are three (3,6%), two can be described as Russians (2,4%), while sixteen Slavs (19,3%) appear as linguistically neutral. One person is surely of Moldavian origin (1,2%) and in twenty five cases (30,1%) no data elucidating the ethnic identity of the Slavic-speaking monks of Zographou are available. However, it is clear that the monastery has been Bulgarian. The Serbians and the Russians appear only after the fall of Byzantium and the first Bulgarians in the monastery of Zographou were probably connected with the neighbouring Slavic population of Macedonia and the Chalkidiki peninsula.

Metropolitan Authority and Colonial Officials. The Capitaneus Crete. XIV-XV c.

A new official, the Capitaneus Crete, has been appointed for the first time after the revolt of St. Titus (1363-1366) to protect the venetian dominion in Crete against any internal or foreign enemy.

Capitaneus is the chief of the Cretan feudal and mercenary army, responsible for the island defence. He participates to the local government (regimen), as an equal with the Duke of Candia and his two Counsellors. Before leaving Venice, the capitaneus, as every venetian official, swears to the main principle of the venetian colonial policy, that is to fight «for the honour and the profit of the Venetian state» and also «for the good and the security of the colony».

The commissio of capitaneus Crete Nicolaus Mudatio (1411) offers a panorama of the capitaneus' restrictions and jurisdictions as a high official of the venetian colony of Crete. He is appointed by the metropolitan authorities for a two-year period of time with an annual payment of 1.000 venetian ducati. Among his other duties, the capitaneus has to organise and keep the army ready to defend the island whenever is needed; he also administers justice among the mercenaries and he is responsible for keeping the order in the city and the burgo of Candia. As far as his participation to the regimen is concerned, his contribution to decisions related to internal or foreign affairs is quite significant.

The Financial Situation of Bishops in the First Decades of the 16th Century and the Case of Gennadius of Serres

In the first part of this study evidence about the personality and the activities of Gennadius, metropolitan of Serres, is examined. An important feature of his long rule (1509-1540) is the donations he granted to monasteries, namely the Great Lavra in Mount Athos, as well as to the metropolis of Serres. As far as the Great Lavra is concerned, Gennadius financed the restoration and the wall paintings of the trapeza. He also offered precious objects, manuscripts and bought adelphata. Gennadius made also generous donations to the metropolis of Serres, to the adjacent monastery of Prodromos and the monastery of Kossinitza.

The 16th century is generally considered as a period of financial difficulty for the Christian population of the Ottoman Empire. The presence of a wealthy bishop is examined in the second part of the present study within this framework. In particular, we focus on the development of the financial situation of a metropolitan as it emerges through the synodic acts of election and ordination of the prelates and of berats, with which the election was acknowledged by the Ottoman authorities and the actual appointment took place.

In the Greek documents of the second half of the 15th century references to the financial state of hierarchs are vague and general. On the contrary, in the 16th century, and especially after the synodic act of 1497, which among other things regulated issues regarding the income of bishops and the way of its collection, we encounter more detailed information that enable us to acquire a clearer picture. Ottoman berats present a similar picture.

Combining this evidence with that deriving from other sources we may draw conclusions about the institutionalised income of metropolitans in the first decades of the 16th century: kanonikon, marriage rates, income from ecclesiastical fairs (panegyris), sources of holy water (hagiasma), zeteia, heritage of priests and monks, other usual sources (ta synethe) of income (emvatikion, exagoreutikion), income from properties owned by the metropolis as well as income from subordinate bishops. Finally, we conclude that this income together with the stable state of the currency, especially during the first half of the 16th century, and the political stability of the Ottoman state contributed to the development of bishops' finances, to the accumulation of wealth and of a surplus, that could thus be used for donations, an activity widespread among the bishops at the 16th century.

 À propos d'un acte de vente à Smyrne

L'étude examine les raisons de la présence de l'acte dans le dossier du couvent de Lembou. C'est un acte de vente de Mars 1208 d'une terre sise à Dèmosion (MM IV, n. 104, p. 183-184) et l'identité des personnes qui y sont impliquées pose des problèmes.

Selon toute probabilité, le vendeur, le moine Nikodèmos Gounaropoulos, était la même personne que Nikolaos Gounaropoulos, qui, en 1207, avec ses cousins avait vendu une terre dans la même région au vestiarite Basileios Blatéros.

L'identité de la personne de l'acheteur Anna, la veuve d'un certain Nikètas Blatéros, pose des problèmes plus grands, car ni Anna ni Nikètas ne sont connus par ailleurs.

L'auteur fait l'hypothèse que l'acheteur Anna était la même personne que la fille du vestiarite Basileios Blatéros Anna, l'épouse du vestiarite Iôannès Rhabdokanakès. Anna, d'un premier mariage, devait être la veuve d'un certain Nikètas.

The Slavs in the Athonite Monastery of Saint Panteleimon

The article analyzes the prosopographical data concerning the presence of Slavs in the athonite monastery of Saint Panteleimon. The chronological frame of the survey extends from 998 to 1661. During the period 1262-1661 thirty-six monks of Slavic origin are identified. Thirteen of them (39.3%) appear as lingually neutral, three can be described as Russians (9%), seven use Bulgarian vernacular (21%), and seven seem to be Serbs (21%). It is obvious that the Russian-speaking monks prevailed during the earlier period, whereas the Serbs and the Bulgarians took their place after the middle of the 14th century. According to the evidence available, in 1395-1396 and 1469, the monastery of Saint Panteleimon had some contacts with the Bulgarian monasteries of Rila and Bačkovo. It is clear that in the 16th centuty the monastery was strongly influenced by the Serbs, so one may state that after the Turkish conquest the connection with the Russian lands was gradually lost in favour of the Balkan Slavs. However, Saint Panteleimon continued being perceived by the other athonite monks as a Russian monastery, even during the 17th century when the Turkish raids (1618) diminished its Slavic population.

The plot of Romanus Boïlas: A Type of Concpiracy Prevention in the Mid-Eleventh Century

 

Conspiracy was not rare during the long-lived history of Byzantium. Accordingly, the plot of Romanus Boïlas against Constantine IX Monomachos, in the middle of the 11th century, would not have been of great interest, if the way by which the Byzantine emperor handled it did not render it an event worth to investigate.

According to the sources, Romanus Boïlas served Monomachos' bodyguard battalions, when he acquainted the emperor. Soon, he rose in the state hierarchy and became politically powerful, a fact that enabled him to conspire against the throne. His plot was revealed before his attempting to assassinate the emperor and was himself arrested. However, during the trial Monomachos tried to acquit Boïlas by claiming the offender's naiveté and honesty. After the deliberations, Monomachos honoured Boïlas with a symposium, while Boïlas abettors were arrested, tortured, deprived of their property and exiled.

Byzantine historiographers interpret Monomacho's peculiar reaction as the result of his dependency on Boïlas, whom they consider as the emperor's buffoon, although the Emperor was in his hands a weak-willed tool.

Nevertheless, the thorough examination of the sources, the investigation of the two heroes' profiles according to the point of view represented by Byzantine historiographers, and the detailed study of the political events at the time of the conspiracy, lead us to a different conclusion. Thus, Boïlas' plot is not to be seen as a hostile action targeting the central, imperial power, but rather as a means by which the imperial power attempted to control a conspiracy against itself.

 Τυμβωρῦχοι and σκυλευτὲς  νεκρῶν: The views  of Nicolaos Kataphloron on rhetoric and the rhetoricians in 12th century Constantinople

There were many factors that were conducive to the flourishing of rhetoric in Constantinople during the Comneni and Angeli era. In the preface of an unpublished encomium about a Greek governor, Nikolaos Kataphloron, 12th century maistor of the rhetors and oikoumenikos didaskalos, criticizes the rhetors of his time, without excepting himself, for being occupied in their works, excessively and exclusively, with the word elegance. He particularly rebukes 12 most prolific writers of Constantinople, whose compositions are indeed patchworks of borrowings from ancient literature. These plagiarists, by shamelessly exhibiting their plunder to the public, gain for themselves fame and renown. Our commentary of the passage demonstrates that Kataphloron's views are greatly influenced by the discussion on the worth of rhetoric, which started in antiquity and was resumed by the writers of the Second Sophistic. However, it is interesting to note that Kataphloron reproaches -in a humorous way- 12 specific rhetors, who are not any others but the 12 didaskaloi of the Patriarchate. It is also pointed out that Michael Choniates expresses similar views some years later.

Byzantine war against Christians – an "emphylios polemos"?
Authors: STOURAITIS Ioannis
Published: November 2014

The Byzantine civil wars have been the subject of studies which aimed to analyze and interpret the political and military dimension of the phenomenon of armed conflicts inside the Byzantine society. The ideological aspect of civil war in Byzantium has received less attention. During my study on Byzantine war ideology, I noticed that there are some cases of Byzantine authors of the period after the 9th century that present Byzantine war against another Christian people as a civil one. Beginning with a short overview of the Byzantines’ understanding of the term emphylios polemos which modern researchers interpret usually with the modern term civil war, this study will concentrate on the ideological and political similarities or differences between Byzantine civil war and Byzantine war against Christian enemies.

Interrelation Between Innovative Development Strategies of Higher Education Institutions and Graduates’ Quality of Education
Authors: Ермакова  , Ermakova S.
Published: November 2014

Innovations in the educational sphere is a matter of wide talk everywhere. Yet

these discussions deal with the only issue of innovative forms of education

in the first place, especially the so-called distance learning and intersubject

communications. Also much discussed is the issue of education quality control,

while the recently adopted Law of the Russian Federation On Education has

become a subject of extensive and loud discussions. However, there is an

evident lack of examination and research on the issue of management in

education, whereas it is essential for creating a solid basis for improving the

graduates’ quality of knowledge. The good news is that the importance of

managing educational processes is already grasped, which is confirmed by

the fact that a new major course for “management in education” profession

is established. The use of such a term, as management, proves that educational

institutions are considered now as commercial organizations, just as towns

and cities in recent years are meant to be corporations and as such are

qualified as subjects of exchange relations. Accordingly, such a stance may

also be extended by analogy on educational process, which may well result

in special treatment of managing such kind of education. The author considers

the whole issue to be determined by unavoidable imperative of our time.

Simulating the «Law of Supply» Formulation to Evaluate Its Accuracy
Authors: Юсим  , Yusim Vyacheslav
Published: November 2014

The paper shows, why frequently occuring phenomenon of supply growth as

a consequence of price growth should not be considered a manifestation of

the Law of Supply. Further the author provides evidence, that business

companies should not base their practices on the so-called “Law of Supply”

because of its invalidity. To find out, why Economic science has adopted and

up to now continues to back and promote the concept, expressed by the Law

of Supply, the author makes an attempt to simulate the very process, through

which the Law of Supply was coined, and to reveal the real reasons of its

adoption. After investigating various ideas and hypotheses put forward by

economists to prove the Law of Supply accuracy, the paper concludes, that

the Law of Supply introduction to the domain of Economic science can be

explained by nothing else, but determination of he, who has formulated the

Law, to provide relevant arguments explaining the phenomenon of market

economy equilibrium, notwithstanding the inconsistency of the Law itself with

real-world practice.

Published: November 2014

This article is devoted to the analysis of historical-cultural conditions, which contributed to the development of the tourist brand «Izhevsk — the forging arms capital of Russia». It looks at the history of arms production in Izhevsk, which is two centuries old and dates back to 1807, when the f rst ordnance plant was built. It is shown, that Izhevsk was one of the major centers of f re arms and cold steel production already in pre-Soviet Russia. In Soviet times, after the reconstruction in the 1930s, the production scale expanded signif cantly. During the Great Patriotic War, when defense plants from the west of Russia, had been

evacuated to Izhevsk, the city actually became the «forging arms capital of Russia». In post-war period Izhevsk machine-building plant became the center for production of the legendary AK-47 and other types of small arms, and also sporting and hunting guns.

In 2013 the Kalashnikov Concern was founded on the base of the research-and-production association Izhevsk machine-building plant. Legendary design engineer M.T. Kalashnikov made an invaluable contribution to the development of arms production traditions in Izhevsk, having made Izhevsk guns world famous. The article looks at historical and modern objects, that are of great tourist importance, and which characterize Izhevsk as the forging arms capital. These objects are: the main building of Izhevsk ordnance plant, the monument to Deryabin (the founder of Izhevsk ordnance plant), Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, the Arsenal Building, the Izmash plant museum, the Kalashnikov Museum — Exhibition Complex of small arms. It is shown, that the brand «Izhevsk — the forging arms capital of Russia» has high potential to promote Izhevsk as a tourist region on both Russian and International levels.

History of optics on materials of collections Museum of Anthropology and Ethnography named after Peter the Great (Kunstkamera).
Authors: Лупанова Евгения , Lupanova Evgeniya
Published: November 2014

Collections of Peter the Great’s Museum for Anthropology and Ethnography (Kunstkamera) represent unique combination of ethnic collections from dif erent countries of the world and historical monuments of Russian science, early period of St. Petersburg Academy of Sciences. Expositions and funds of the museum permanently attract the attention of specialists in dif erent f elds. One of topics that can be learned on the basis of our museum is history of optics. The collections provide opportunities to study the simplest optical devices in Eastern traditional cultures. Collections provide the opportunity to study usage of mirrors, clear

crystals (which were believed to possess magic power) in traditional cultures as well as the process of transformation of stored for ages celestial observations into a basis for further forming of scientif c knowledge. The interest of European scholars to Oriental countries in the 18th century was not just interest to exotic, but also interest to the stored experience of observations.

The expositions «М.V. Lomonosov and Academy of Sciences in the 18th century» and «First Astronomical Observatory of the Academy of Sciences», as well as the funds of the department of the history of the Kunstlkamera and Russian sciences in the 18th century present scientif c instruments, which have become monuments of Russian and European optics — lenses, mirrors, spyglasses, telescopes, transit instruments and others. They are just f ne material both for enlightening work with visitors and for historical researches. One can see there instruments made by famous masters of the 18-19th centuries — E.W. Tschirnhaus, E. Nairne, J. Bird, J. Ramsden, J. Fraunhofer.

There collections are also interesting from the cultural point of view. The period of forming Russian science is the same time as the process of refusing to perceive optical instruments as attributes of “elegant leisure”, devices for entertaining rich and enlighten public$ process of af rmance microscopes, telescopes, lenses etc. as scientif c instruments to be used by specialists at their observatories, laboratories and also for teaching purposes. Today we can see the revival of this fashion and high public interest to scientif c observations.

Exploring the ‘good’ birth: What is it and why does it matter?
Authors: Talbot Deborah
Published: December 2014

This article explores the relationship between childbirth and mothers' psychosocial experience of motherhood, through the lens of the ‘good’ birth. Case histories of eight mothers were selected and written up from research on birthing and risk in an East London locality; these were mothers who had reported an experience of a ‘good’ or ‘great’ birth ( Simkin, 2006 ). The aim was to see what they had in common. Three core themes were identified. Firstly, whether as a consequence or a cause of their birthing experience, and most likely both, the mothers were identified as having strong personalities or ‘ego's’. Secondly, they had all experienced respectful care. Thirdly, they had experienced a transition to motherhood ( Oakley, 1980 ) that was unambiguous and lacking in tension. Not all of these women had ‘natural’ births. The conclusion discusses the implications of this for further research and the way childbirth is managed in the UK and beyond.
What is social media?
Authors: Power Alison
Published: December 2014

There is growing evidence to suggest that social media platforms have great potential for professional discourse, dissemination of research and sharing of best practice; with their use being supported by the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) and the Royal College of Midwives (RCM) who both have active social media profiles on Facebook and Twitter. In the absence of official guidelines, the NMC advises its members to act as professionally online as in person, in line with the principles of The Code ( NMC, 2008 ). The extension of the construct of professionalism to the digital domain has blurred the boundary between personal and professional personas and this lack of clarity seems to have created a barrier to social media being used by midwives to its full potential in a professional context. This series of short articles will offer step-by-step guides on how to join the social media platforms Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn using appropriate privacy settings and will provide suggestions on how to use the platforms confidently, productively and safely in a professional context.
Analysis of Changes in Microflora and Flavor of Low and High Salt Content Soybean Paste (Doenjang)
Authors: Han Deok-Hee , Park Jung-Min , Bai Dong-Hoon
Published: December 2014

Changes in microflora and flavor during the one year fermentation of soybean paste (Doenjang) with different salt concentrations were analyzed. Doenjang was prepared by traditional methods with five different salt concentrations. The viable cell numbers of aerobic bacteria and halophile bacteria in all samples showed between 7 to 11 log CFU/ g during the fermentation period. The major bacterial species during early Doenjang fermentation were Bacillus licheniformis and B. amyloliquefaciens in low salt Doenjang with 4.8% and 8.4% concentrations. The viable cells of fungi were detected in small amounts in all samples. In order to analyze the tendency of main aromatic compounds during fermentation, the SPME method by using GC-MS was taken. Aldehydes, alcohols, and acids were the main compounds in low salt samples from the beginning to the third month of fermentation. As fermentation continued, various pyrazines were formed in low salt samples starting from the sixth month of fermentation.
Effects of Microwave Thawing Conditions on the Physicochemical Characteristics of Frozen Rice
Authors: Jang Min-Young , Min Sang-Gi , Cho Eun-Kyung , Lee Mi-Yeon
Published: December 2014

The effects of freezing and thawing rates on the physicochemical properties of rice were investigated to improve the quality of frozen rice as a home meal replacement product. Cooked rice was frozen by an individual quickfreezing (IQF) system at -45◦C or by a conventional freezing (CF) system at -24◦C. The frozen rice was then thawed using a microwave oven with multiple output powers of 200, 600 and 1000W. The quality of rice was evaluated by the water content, color and the textural properties of hardness and adhesiveness. In addition, the internal microstructure of the rice grain was observed by scanning electron microscope. Results showed that rice thawed by 600 W of microwaves contained lower water content and had harder textures than those treated with 200 or 1000 W. Lightness and redness of rice was increased by the freezing-thawing process, whereas yellowness decreased. The total color difference of individual quick-frozen rice was lower than conventional frozen rice. Microstructure imaging showed the thawed rice contained a crack in the core of the grain. Moreover, the large pore may occur with the 1000W microwave. High freezing and thawing rates seemed to improve the quality of frozen rice. However, using more than 600W of microwaves leads to the hardening of texture or porous structures in the rice.
