Characterization of Biharmonic Hypersurface
Authors: Srivastava S.K. , Sood K. , Srivastava K.
Published: January 2023

The main purpose of this paper is to study biharmonic hypersurface in a quasi-paraSasakian manifold $\mathbb{Q}^{2m+1}$. Biharmonic hypersurfaces are special cases of biharmonic maps and biharmonic maps are the critical points of the bienergy functional. The condition of biharmonicity for non-degenerate hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{Q}^{2m+1}$ is investigated for both cases: either the characteristic vector field of $\mathbb{Q}^{2m+1}$ is the unit normal vector field to the hypersurface or it belongs to the tangent space of the hypersurface. Some relevant examples are also illustrated.
La Universidad del Aire: programa radial y tribuna para la historia de Cuba (1933-1953)
Authors: Relys Arango Eliany , Arencibia Coloma Yaneidys
Published: January 2023

El artículo examina la contribución de la Universidad del Aire –programa radial creado y dirigido por el intelectual Jorge Mañach Robato (1898–1961)– a la divulgación y socialización de la historia de Cuba entre los años 1933 y 1953. El objetivo central es revelar las principales líneas temáticas de las conferencias radiadas y publicadas en los Cuadernos de la Universidad del Aire, importante gestión editorial paralela al programa. Se pondera el uso de la radio como vehículo idóneo para superar las barreras del analfabetismo, se demuestra que el programa se convirtió en cátedra no solo del análisis y difusión de los hechos pasados, sino también de la contemporaneidad del país. Se aporta un índice cronológico y temático de las conferencias y conferencistas relacionados con la historia de Cuba.

Authors: Lima Ingrid Andrade , Annes Laryssa Maryssan Barreto , Góis Amanda Regina da Silva
Published: January 2023

Introdução: O uso de quimioterapias antineoplásicas atuando a nível celular com objetivo de tratar as neoplasias malignas, pode levar ao surgimento da toxicidade dermatológica, ocasionada pelo extravasamento, que consiste em um dano tecidual decorrente da infiltração, por via endovenosa, dos quimioterápicos aos tecidos circunvizinhos do local puncionado, necessitando de uma atuação profissional rápida e efetiva para evitar desfechos desfavoráveis para o paciente.
Objetivo: Compreender a percepção do enfermeiro sobre os cuidados relacionados ao extravasamento de drogas antineoplásicas.
Método: Trata-se de um estudo de campo, descritivo-exploratório com abordagem qualitativa, realizado com quinze enfermeiros que atuam no ambulatório e enfermarias da oncologia adulto de uma instituição hospitalar filantrópica localizada em Recife/Pernambuco, Brasil. Os dados foram coletados entre janeiro e dezembro de 2020 através de entrevista e passaram por análise de conteúdo temática-categorial.
Resultados: Emergiram duas categorias. Cuidados preventivos: da identificação dos fatores de riscos à educação do paciente e equipe de saúde; Cuidados diretos: da identificação da ocorrência ao gerenciamento institucional do evento.
Conclusão: Compreendeu-se que a percepção do enfermeiro destaca a importância do planejamento da assistência, incluindo a intervenção imediata, o registro do evento e o acompanhamento do paciente após o extravasamento, como forma de realizar um cuidado especializado e com maior segurança.

Indicadores de saúde mental e de atividade física de trabalhadores do setor bancário durante a pandemia da COVID-19
Authors: Oliveira Íris Silveira , Quirino Natália Quirino Maria Mesquita de Lima , Teixeira Gabriella Jenniffer Oliveira de Freitas , Guedes Dantas Jean Paulo , Oliveira Leonardo Santos
Published: January 2023

Introdução: Indivíduos fisicamente ativos parecem apresentar melhores indicadores de saúde mental e estresse em comparação a seus congêneres com prática insuficiente de atividade física. Contudo, a análise da prática de atividade física e de indicadores de saúde mental de trabalhadores do setor bancário não tem sido explorada durante a pandemia da COVID-19.
Objetivo: Analisar escores de depressão, ansiedade, estresse e da prática de atividade física em trabalhadores do setor bancário durante a pandemia da COVID-19.
Método: Uma estratégia comparativa associativa foi empregada com 21 trabalhadores do setor bancário (24-44 anos, 71,4% mulheres) de uma cidade do Nordeste brasileiro. Um questionário on-line foi aplicado explorando informações sociodemográficas, antropométricas, indicadores de ansiedade, depressão e estresse (EADS-21), de função laboral e do nível de atividade física. A correlação entre os escores EADS-21 e o nível de atividade física foi obtida pelo coeficiente Rho de Spearman e a comparação dos indicadores entre trabalhadores insuficientemente ativos e fisicamente ativos foi realizada pelo teste U de Mann-Whitney.
Resultados: O nível de atividade física apresentou uma correlação fraca e inversa com os escores de ansiedade (Rho= −0,15), depressão (Rho= −0,35) e de estresse (Rho= −0,11). Além disso, verificou-se que não houve diferença estatisticamente significante entre os trabalhadores do setor bancário insuficientemente ativos vs. fisicamente ativos em relação à ansiedade (P= 0,719), depressão (P= 0,548) ou estresse (P= 0,842).
Conclusão: Os indicadores de saúde mental e estresse foram inversamente associados à prática regular de atividade física. Em adição, os níveis de ansiedade, depressão e estresse foram similares entre trabalhadores do setor bancário fisicamente ativos e insuficientemente ativos.
Concepción, práctica y enseñanza de la expresividad musical. Un estudio de caso
Authors: Lorenzo de Reizábal Arantza
Published: January 2023

El presente artículo muestra una investigación empírica situada en el campo de la interpretación musical. Su objetivo consiste en conocer el pensamiento de los músicos acerca de la expresividad musical y su enseñanza con el fin de profundizar y avanzar en su conocimiento y abordaje didáctico. El estudio, que sigue un método descriptivo, se realiza con 219 sujetos, entre docentes y estudiantes de un conservatorio superior. El enfoque metodológico aplicado es cuantitativo, basado en el cálculo de estadísticos descriptivos básicos, el cual se centra en la administración a los participantes de un cuestionario elaborado específicamente para la investigación. Los resultados muestran que el nivel de comprensión y la inteligencia emocional son factores que influyen en la expresividad, siendo esta característica la más valorada por un intérprete. Por otro lado, se constata que el trabajo de la expresividad dentro del proceso de montaje de la performance no sigue pautas estandarizadas y es enseñada con diferentes estrategias didácticas, que normalmente atienden al nivel académico del estudiante, aunque prevalecen los modelos basados en el uso de metáforas y de instrucciones técnicas. Por último, se concluye que la enseñanza de la expresividad debe estandarizarse.
El cabaret online. Homosocialidad y masculinidades entre hombres que pagan por sexo en Argentina.
Authors: Morcillo Santiago
Published: January 2023

Para muchos varones heterosexuales el mercado sexual, además de ofrecer sexo, ha brindado espacios para intercambios homosociales, y por ello potencialmente reproductores de asimetrías de género. Sin embargo, en la última década estos espacios se han transformado en cuanto a sus formas de visibilidad y accesibilidad. En este período surgieron y se consolidaron sitios online donde los varones que pagan por sexo intercambian experiencias y socializan. A partir de una etnografía virtual llevada a cabo durante cinco años en los dos foros online más importantes de Argentina –parte de un trabajo de campo más amplio en el mercado sexual–, este artículo busca analizar específicamente las formas de homosocialidad que emergen en estos espacios virtuales y sus vinculaciones y tensiones con las distintas formas de masculinidad. El análisis articula las dinámicas de intercambio y las transformaciones en los foros online, tomando en cuenta el papel de la propia economía del mercado sexual. Se busca así comprender los vínculos entre estas formas de homosocialidad con la reproducción (o no) de los patrones que sostienen asimetrías de género y las características específicas que adquieren los intercambios entre estos varones en el mundo online.

Published: January 2023

En el artículo se describe el análisis realizado sobre los ataques de ingeniería social en Colombia; así como un compilado de buenas prácticas y recomendaciones para evitar el riesgo que pueden ser aplicables tanto a usuarios comunes como a empresas. Inicialmente se realiza una breve descripción de la terminología relacionada con la Ingeniería social, normativa, legislación y conceptos, esto con el propósito de familiarizar al lector; posteriormente se logra identificar cuáles son las técnicas de ingeniería social más utilizadas y que afectan a la población colombiana. Otro aspecto importante es mencionar las estrategias o campañas creadas por parte de las entidades del estado o privadas, para contribuir a mitigar la ocurrencia de incidentes relacionados o producidos por este tipo de ataques. A partir de esto, la ciudadanía, los entes gubernamentales y las empresas, deberán abordar el tema como una problemática socioeconómica, que puede afectar desde su entorno familiar hasta el laboral o, en el caso de las empresas, su imagen y reputación. Por otra parte, al analizar los casos reportados fue posible identificar las técnicas que utilizan los ciber criminales y, con el fin de contribuir a mitigar la brecha de inseguridad, se obtiene un conjunto de buenas prácticas y recomendaciones para que las personas no se vean afectadas por ataques basados en ingeniería social, esto para que posteriormente las organizaciones las puedan utilizar para realizar la concienciación del personal y como estrategia de prevención.

Las categorías antropológicas filosóficas en el pensamiento de Miguel De Unamuno
Authors: Castillo Gaitán Bernardo Antonio
Published: January 2023

Se pretende explicar que la conciencia y la muerte son dos categorías antropológicas filosóficas que están presentes en el pensamiento de Miguel de Unamuno y son expresiones de lo más humano posible. Para el desarrollo del texto se utiliza la metodología de análisis de documentos que implica consultar, seleccionar y detectar los contenidos del tema. Se concluye que la muerte y la conciencia son dos categorías que definen las expresiones y experiencias propias del ser humano y que la antropología filosófica de Unamuno tiene un carácter individual dirigida a la explicación del ser humano concreto, de carne y hueso.
“Es la patria una cuestión de acento”, una lectura de las locuciones presentes en dos crónicas de José Ignacio Cabrujas
Authors: Ardila Cabrera Vanessa
Published: January 2023

José Ignacio Cabrujas (1937-1995) es un referente fundamental en el contexto cultural venezolano del siglo XX. El tema constante en todas sus producciones es Venezuela, sobre todo en la crónica, donde cuestiona abiertamente la conformación política, económica, social y cultural de un país marcado por hechos históricos contradictorios. Por esto, una lectura de las locuciones presentes en dos de sus crónicas permite un acercamiento al lenguaje de su autor para evidenciar cómo, a través del uso de expresiones coloquiales, Cabrujas retrata la realidad de un país. Las locuciones de ambas crónicas son analizadas bajo las clasificaciones y propuestas teóricas de Mario García-Page (2008). Con este análisis se esboza una aproximación a la configuración ideológica-semántica de Cabrujas, que parece estar ya presente en la afirmación de su personaje Purificación, en Acto cultural (1976): “Es la patria una cuestión de acento”.
Algunas notas para una recepción crítica del novelista Clarín en España (1901-1984)
Authors: López Ruiz Patricia Teresa
Published: January 2023

Como es sabido, las novelas de Clarín no siempre formaron parte del canon de las grandes obras del siglo XIX. Este trabajo pretende, por una parte, establecer las causas por las que dicho autor permaneció alejado del grupo de los grandes novelistas del siglo XIX durante tantos años. Por otra, se plantea ofrecer algunas notas para un panorama diacrónico que abarque la crítica clariniana desde 1901 hasta 1984, y reflejar así quiénes fueron los primeros investigadores que se interesaron por dichas novelas, cuáles fueron sus intereses y las claves sobre las que sustentaron su valoración. Esta puesta en valor de las novelas clarinianas conllevó varias décadas del siglo XX, en las que fue fundamental un acercamiento a los elementos intratextuales de su obra que dejara atrás la visión de Clarín como un simple eslabón que abría paso hacia las obras de grandes autores como Galdós o a los de la generación del 98.
La enseñanza de la expresión escrita a estudiantes universitarios bribris y cabécares: el caso de las discordancias
Authors: Serrato Pineda Luis
Published: January 2023

Este trabajo aborda el tema de las discordancias presentes en textos académicos escritos por estudiantes universitarios de comunidades bribris y cabécares. Partiendo de propuestas sobre el bilingüismo (Baker, 1993), el contacto de lenguas (Palacios, 2011) y la revisión (Cassany, 2014), se diseñó y aplicó una propuesta didáctica de 10 horas de duración orientada, primero, a la concientización del fenómeno de las discordancias en variedades de español en contacto con el bribri y el cabécar, y, segundo, al reconocimiento y revisión de estas en textos académicos; asimismo, se buscó generar conciencia sobre algunas características deseables en estos escritos. El tema fue definido luego de realizar un diagnóstico, el cual mostró que las producciones escritas por dichos estudiantes tienden a presentar mayor cantidad de discordancias que las de hablantes de comunidades históricamente monolingües en español, tanto de zona rural como de zona urbana. Con base en un instrumento de evaluación aplicado al inicio y al final de un curso-taller, se observó una reducción en la cantidad de discordancias en los textos revisados y corregidos, así como una mejor comprensión de características importantes de los textos académicos.

Performance of laboratory ELISA and rapid ELISA tests for Ehrlichia spp. and Anaplasma spp. antibody detection in dogs
Authors: Gospodinova K. , Koev K. , Petrov V.
Published: January 2023

The aim of the study was to compare the performance of two diagnostic approaches for the detection of antibodies against Ehrlichia canis (E. canis) and Anaplasma phagocytophilum (A. phagocytophylum). Two types of tests were used. Anti-E. canis ELISA Dog (IgG) and Anti-A. phagocytophilum ELISA Dog (IgG) are ELISA kits for the detection of relevant antibodies in laboratory conditions, and SNAP® 4Dx Plus is a pet-side ELISA-based serological screening test for simultaneous detection of antibodies against A. phagocytophilum/A. platys, E. canis/E. ewingii, B. burgdorferi and Dirofilaria immitis antigens. A total of 61 blood samples obtained from dogs with clinical signs and haematological changes suspect for granulocytic anaplasmosis or monocytic ehrlichiosis were analysed. Antibodies against E. canis were found out in 29 (47.54%) and A. phagocytophilum in 7 (11.48%) of the samples tested by laboratory ELISA. When using the SNAP test, the results were 35 (57.38%) and 11 (18.03%), respectively. Using the laboratory ELISA kit, 18 samples (29.50%) were positive for antibodies against both pathogens vs 9 (14.75%) samples tested by SNAP. The comparison of the two tests showed a greater agreement of the results in the detection of antibodies against Ehrlichia spp. (52 samples) than against Anaplasma spp. (44 samples). This difference was attributed to possible cross-reactions
Densification of nanoporous metals during nanoindentation: The role of structural and mechanical properties
Authors: Huber N. , Ryl I. , Wu Y. , Hablitzel M. , Zandersons B. , Richert C. , Lilleodden E.
Published: January 2023

The analysis of the densification behavior of nanoporous metals in nanoindentation is challenging in simulations and experiments. A deeper understanding of the densification behavior provides valuable information about the different deformation mechanisms in nanoindentation and compression experiments. The developed two-scale model allows for predicting the densification field for variable microstructure and elastic–plastic behavior. It could be shown that the penetration depth of the densification field is mainly controlled by the ratio of the macroscopic work hardening rate to yield stress. The shape as well as the value at characteristic isolines of densification depend mainly on the macroscopic plastic response of the nanoporous material. This could be confirmed by nanoindentation experiments, where the densification under the indenter was measured for ligament sizes from 35 to 150 nm. Although the depth of the densification field was underpredicted by the simulations, the experiments confirmed the predicted trends.

Autonomia podmiotu politycznego w ujęciu Johna Rawlsa
Authors: Andryszczak Piotr
Published: January 2023

Rawls’s philosophy in general and his conception of the person in particular has undenia- bly Kantian foundations. Kant, in his attempt to find a basis for his ethic, came to a conclusion that it can be found only in the autonomy of the will which has to be independent of any em- pirical determination. Any influence of our social and psychological inclinations leads us to the refusal of freedom and makes our will heteronomous. Therefore we are able to be moral only as participants in a transcendental subject.Rawls preserves Kant’s teaching by detaching it from transcendental idealism and recast- ing in the new context. His social and political theory is founded on a specific anthropology. The metaphysical essence of a person is not determined by any form of the good, ie by the ends we choose, but consists in our capacity to choose them. The reason for that is very clear: If a conception of the good were a part of my identity, I would try to impose it on others in a society we plan to build behind the veil of ignorance. That is why only the persons who are individuated prior to their ends can construct a just society. So in Rawls’s view the autonomy turns out to be our essence.However his anthropology and his political thought as well induce us to raise some objec- tions to his proposals. Rawls sees a human being in a very abstract and artificial way and such characteristic does not show the truth about ourselves but is used by him to justify liberal prin- ciples. Rawls simply constructs a certain notion of the person, which is liberal in its content to convince us that we have to choose to live in a liberal society. If we do not recognise ourselves in his theory of the person and therefore we are reluctant to accept the liberal vision of society, then what?
Psychologiczne aspekty nadziei w encyklice Spe salvi
Authors: Makselon Józef
Published: January 2023

Hope has always been a major factor which motivated human behaviour. It signified expectations of something better, which would sometimes guarantee either a profound existential experience, or at least adaptation to the social context. In the name of hope, not only did people undertake expeditions to unknown territories, but they engaged in scientific research too. They did it with the conviction that it would maintain the lives of both individuals and communities, and bring them some meaning.It seems paradoxical that diverse quests for the sources of hope in the contemporary humanities rarely refer to the deep thought of the Church. Therefore, this article attempts to present compatibility between the papal reflections on hope (mostly in Pope Benedict XVI’s encyclical Spe salvi) and some psychological analyses. To present a multidimensional experience of hope, this article mainly discusses some forms and conditions of hope and focuses on the chances of building it.
Rola Maryi w duchowym życiu Kościoła w ujęciu Wilfreda Le Sage’a
Authors: Godawa Marcin
Published: January 2023

This article concerns the vision of meditation contained in Vision of Renewal. An Aggiornamento by Wilfred Le Sage SJ. In the spirit of post-Vaticanum II mariology the author tries to combine intelectual elements with emotional ones in order to show the life of Our Lady as a pattern of christian life. She is depicted from the wide theological perspective as a Virgin and as a Mother of God who by her part in mission of her Son is also a Mother of the Church. Her sufferings represented as an especially significant aspect of her vocation express the degree of her love developed in all her life. Thanks to the exceptional grace the Mother of God, called “the Woman”, suffered more then all the martyrs and therefore she can be a helper of the regulars also on the way of mistical experience. With a reference to an everyday christian life the riches of Mary’s soul is the conspicuous sign how the God’s plan is to be fulfilled. Being a student of Jesus she is a teacher of believers and an exemplar of humility and silence directed to God right up to contemplation. The Le Sage’s presentation characterised by the maturity of analysis and conclusions makes the interesting achievment in the process of catholic theological reflection salient for prayer and activity.
Istota i cechy niebiańskiego szczęścia w nauczaniu Grzegorza Wielkiego
Authors: Kashchuk Oleksandr
Published: January 2023

The main purpose of the article is to look at the doctrine of Gregory the Great and explore his teaching on the essence and characteristics of the celestial felicity. According to the teaching of Gregory the Great, the essence of celestial felicity consists of two elements: the vision of God and the joyful fruition which flows from the vision. The vision of God identifies with the possession of God and unity with Him through the beatific love. The celestial felicity first of all is characterized by feature of perfection because of the clarity of the celestial vision. The celestial felicity is spiritual, i. e., the felicity concerns only spirituality of the human in contrast to the teaching of the followers of the chiliasm. The celestial felicity is eternal, because the human soul in heaven participates in the eternity of God. The celestial felicity is true, because in the state of the felicity the human perfectly communes with God who is Truth (John 14:6). The celestial beatitude is beautiful, because in heaven the human participates in God clothed with majesty (Ps 92:1).
Barmherzigkeit-Gottes-Frömmigkeit nah der heiligen Faustina Kowalska. Im Kontext der Lehre von Johannes Paul II und Benedikt XVI
Authors: Machniak Jan
Published: January 2023

Nabożeństwo do Bożego Miłosierdzia przekazane przez św. Faustynę Kowalską w jej Dzienniczku jest mocno osadzone w teologii Miłosierdzia Bożego czasów, w których żyła Mistyczka z Krakowa. Ukazuje ono miłosierdzie jako „największy przymiot Boga”, to znaczy wsobny atrybut Boga, który objawia swoją miłość wobec świata i człowieka jako miłość darmo daną, czyli miłosierdzie. Jan Paweł II podejmując temat miłosierdzia Bożego w encyklice Dives in misericordia, przyjmuje perspektywę historii zbawienia, ukazując bogactwo Bożego Miłosierdzia objawionego na Synaju (Księga Wyjścia), a przede wszystkim w Osobie Jezusa Chrystusa. Kanonizując Siostrę Faustynę (Rzym 2002), stawia nabożeństwo do Bożego Miłosierdzia jako propozycję, przez którą każdy człowiek może otworzyć się na Boga. W 2002 roku podczas pielgrzymki do Ojczyzny Jan Paweł II zawierzył cały świat Bożemu Miłosierdziu. Do nauczania na temat Bożego Miłosierdzia nawiązuje Benedykt XVI, szczególnie w swoich wystąpieniach z okazji Święta Miłosierdzia.

Żyjemy w świecie fantastycznych odkryć naukowych. Człowiek podejmuje podróże ko- smiczne i zgłębia tajniki wszechświata. Zna ludzki genom. Jednakże najdoskonalsze mikroskopy i teleskopy odczytujące tajemnice świata nie odkryją w nim informacji po co żyjemy, dlaczego płaczemy, po co umieramy, jaki jest sens naszego życia. Dzisiaj te pytania są spychane często na obrzeża naszego życia i naszej świadomości. W świecie wykreowanym przez media bardzo rzadko pojawia się odniesienie do Boga. Paradoksalnie nasz wzrok stał się słabszy i krótszy, a nasz horyzont duchowy ograniczył się często jedynie do tego, co widzialne i namacalne. Człowiek współczesny niejednokrotnie nie potrafi wybiegać poza nakreślony mu horyzont, nie potrafi przenikać kolorowej warstwy obrazów i materii. A podstawowe pytania pozostają bez odpowiedzi... Tymczasem to, co jest naprawdę ważne, jest niewidoczne. Trzeba zatem dostrzec Niewidzialnego, sięgnąć do Biblii, żyć prawdą, zrozumieć drugich, mieć radość z czynienia dobra. Kultura chrześcijańska to nie tylko katedry i kantaty Jana Sebastiana Bacha, poezja mistyczna, ikony czy malarstwo sakralne. Istnieje także inspirowany chrześci- jaństwem sposób bycia, atmosfera miłości w rodzinie, uśmiech matki, uścisk ojca, rodzinna więź, bezinteresowna pomoc – to ciche i ukryte skarby kultury chrześcijańskiej, z pewnością warte dostojeństwa katedr, piękna płócien Fra Angelico, kantat Jana Sebastiana Bacha.Powyższy wykład został wygłoszony w Liverpool Hope University 28 lutego 2008 roku, na posiedzeniu Hope Theological Society.
Beda Czcigodny o klasztorach mieszanych na Wyspach Brytyjskich (Historia Ecclesiastica, III–IV w.)
Authors: Kastelik Justyna
Published: January 2023

The system of double monasteries, or monasteries for both men and women, is as old as that of Christian monasticism itself. The double monastery in its simplest form was that organization said to have been founded in the fourth century by St. Pachomius, an Egyptian monk. This settlement soon became a proper nunnery under the control of the superior of the monks, who delegated elderly men to care for its discipline. Through the ages, double monasteries comprising communities of both men and women dwelling in contiguous establishments, united under the rule of one superior, and using one church in common for their liturgical offices. It’s cannot be stated with any certainty when the system found its way into the West. At the opening of the sixth century, double monasteries existed in Gaul. St. Caesarius of Arles persuaded his sister Caesaria to join him at Arles, to preside over the women who had gathered there to live in monastery under his guidance. Later the system of double monasteries in Gaul was widely propagated by St. Columbanus and his followers. The double monasteries seem always to have flourished wherever the fervor of the Irish missionaries penetrated. In a short time, British Isles were became covered with similar dual establishments, of which Whitby, Coldingham, Ely, Sheppey, Minster, Wimborne, Barking and Kildare are prominent examples. Abbesses ruled these houses.Bede Venerabilis in his work Historia Ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum, gives much information about double monasteries and the most famous abbesses. Princesses, royal widows, sometimes reigning queens, began to found monasteries, where they lived on terms of equality with the daughters of ceorls and peasants. Bede writes that from the beginning of Christianity in England, the women, and particularly these royal women, were as active and persevering in furthering the Faith, as their men. Hild from Whitby, Aethelthryth (Etheldreda) from Ely, Aethelburh (Ethelburga) from Barking are the most luminous examples of powerful abbesses. A system of double monasteries was always an object of solicitude and strict legislation at the hands of ecclesiastical authority. Many synodal and conciliar decrees recognized its dangers, and ordered the strictest surveillance of all communications passing between monks and nuns. The Norman invasions of the eight and ninth centuries destroyed the double monasteries of British Isles and, when they were restored, it was for one sex only, instead of for a dual community.
Status chrześcijan w Libanie według Règlement z 1861 oraz 1864 roku
Authors: Kościelniak Krzysztof
Published: January 2023

Lebanon’s experiment with power sharing dates back to 1861 and 1864. Règlement, the law regulating relations between of all the ethnic-religious groups of Lebanon (Maronite Christians, Sunni Muslims, Christian Greek Orthodox, Greek Catholics, the Shi’a Muslims, and the Druze) was a novel, very interesting solution for multi-ethnic society of Lebanon. This society was divided along confessional lines concentrating in distinct geographical regions. The Ottoman governor had to be a appointed by Constantinople, non-Lebanese Catholic with the authorization of the five foreign guarantors (from England, France, Germany, Austria and Russia). Each of the six mentioned communities was allotted two seats on the twelve-member administrative council that helped the governor rule. According to the Règlement, all members of the administrative and judiciary councils as well as local officials of smaller counties were to be nominated and chosen by the leaders of the respective communities and appointed by the government. The Règlement Organique transformed Mount Lebanon into a fully autonomous Ottoman province with political institutions based on power sharing among its various denominations under an Ottoman-European consortium protectorate giving a half century communal peace (1864–1920) to Mount Lebanon.
Najazdy wikingów a kryzys Kościoła anglosaskiego w IX wieku. Zarys problemu
Authors: Zinkiewicz Jacek
Published: January 2023

The end of the 7th and the first half of the 8th century was a time of flowering and relatively greateness of anglo-saxon Church. Nonetheless some prominent ecclesiastics (Bede Venerable for example) caught sight of the crisis symptoms. Any attempts of more or less general reforms of the Church, which had place since the Clofesho Council (747), had been unsuccessful. Political disruption and frictions between rulers and bishops made impossible any real and constant changes. Secularised minsters were too serious sources of mundane profits for their lay masters, and that’s why they didn’t want to leave the control of this issue to the clergymen. It caused fall of discipline, morality and intelectual quality of minsters. The end of the 8th and the beginning of the 9th centuries gave another examples of unsuccessful attempts to reform the basic problems of anglo-saxon Church in the time of political confusion. There also appeared another factor, which soon radically influenced political, social, cultural and ecclesiastical situation of anglo-saxon kingdoms.Since the end of the 8th century the Viking raids era had begun. The viking menace didn’t seem very considerable at first, it happended after some time when started to be regular. In the first half of the 9th century there existed some ecclesiastical centres, still giving an example of greateness, which could have been the source of potential reform. But to do this, a social and political peace was needed, and also cooperation of two powers: lay and spiritual. An attempts of the Church reforms (or rather – minsters), initiated by archibishop Wulfred, failed, and the next had place during the reign of Alfred the Great. In the meantime the viking menace grew up. The vikings caused very serious impoverishment of the Church in Britain, and also shaked its structures. They caused a great material losses but did not start ecclesiastical crisis; a symptoms of this crisis had been seen long before the Vikings, as a result of gradual fall and because of unrealized changes suggested since the times of Bede, and especially since the Clofesho Council in 747. In this circumstances, in the moment of the highest exterior menace, there couldn’t have been a place for any contentions, and Alfred the Great kept in his hands an initiative of the general renewal and reforms, also by means of foreign clergy.

The Church’s teaching concerning community between Herself and the College of Bishops, which was considerably broadened by Vatican II, is the foundation of their varied and diversified collaboration.This collaboration also manifests itself in such over diocesan institutions as Episcopal Conferences, regional convocations as well as the structure of the Church metropolis itself.The post-Vatican II legislation has reshaped and ascribed new tasks to all the above mentioned institutions. Owing to that fact they can be an efficient instrument of the over diocesan ministry.

The right to association is one of the fundamental rights of every human being. The right has the foundations both in the natural and supernatural dignity of man. No one can unjustly deprive of the right in question neither civil, nor ecclesial authorities.The arouse interest of application and realization the right to association could be seen in Poland in recent years especially after year 1989 when the new law on association was issued and made public life more democrat and liberal. The political changes make possible for Catholics in Poland to put the right to association into action.The paper has the aim to bring closer the associations showing the characteristics of the type of associations and presenting step by step how it comes into being. The intention of the paper is to be of help to the faithful who want to establish association and build communio of the Church by its working.The paper consists of the following parts: the first one presents possible distinctions of associations according to a variety of criteria. The second chapter is a description of private association of faithful. The third one elucidates to stages of its origin until it become a church and civil legal person.
Wizerunek współczesnej szkoły w artystycznym obrazie wybranych dziedzin sztuki. Wybrane aspekty

The school institution has always been subject to social criticism. The negative image of the school was not always fully justified and true. It happened that the words of criticism contributed to the improvement of school’s image. The school is one of the most important social institutions, it is therefore essential that its assessment be objective and the difficulties encountered / shortcomings have become an impulse for discussion, dialogue, and then for correction and supplementation. This text is an attempt to indicate the role of the art that presents selected areas of the functioning of the school. In the text, I refer to historical examples of art involvement in the educational and upbringing process at school, thus trying to signal that art was already an important element of education in the past. It was creating the image of the school. Today we can notice a similar practice. On the one hand, the presence of art in school creates its image, and on the other hand, art that works outside also creates its image. In the text, I present a number of examples of how school is perceived in an artistic image of fine arts, film and theater.

The aim of the study was to analyze the psychological determinants of starting homeschooling by parents towards their school-age children. We analyzed the dependence of this decision on personality traits according to the Big Five, anxiety as a trait, hope trait and factors such as political and religious views or parents’ own school experiences. A comparative analysis has been made with parents whose children attend public primary schools. We used Hope for Success Questionnaire (Łaguna, Trzebiński & Zięba, 2005), State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (Wrześniewski, Sosnowski, Jaworowska & Fecenec, 2011), IPIP-BFM-20 Questionnaire (Topolewska, Skimina, Strus, Cieciuch & Rowiński, 2014), questions about homeschooling and demographics. Stronger hope for success, ability to find solutions, willpower, emotional stability and intellect, lower anxiety and conscientiousness were observed in parents undertaking homeschooling compared to parents of school children. A qualitative analysis was also conducted on the declaration of reasons for undertaking homeschooling. The article ends with recommendations for further empirical research.
Education “Ever Anew” – A Reflection on the Changing Educational and Professional Reality in Theoretical and Practical Terms
Authors:   University of Adam Mickiewicz in Poznań, Christoph Monika
Published: January 2023

The article aims to make a critical reflection, theoretical and practical, on the school and its functioning in the context of shaping the desired competences among graduates that distinguish them on the labour market. It is a strong impression that young people in the Polish classroom system still play the role of passive recipients of educational services rather than independent creators. Thus, there is a clear need to create high-quality bridges between the areas of pedagogical support for students in their educational and professional choices and the labour market and employers’ space in Poland. Education “ever anew” is the one that continually changes, adjusts its forms and contents to the changing socio-economic reality, creates a new quality focused on an individual and demanding recipient. The introduction takes the form of a brief reflection on the current dynamics of educational and professional life and the competences that will be needed in the future. The next section presents selected contexts and the diversity of the conditions of educational spaces in Poland. The summary contains inspiration for selected aspects of the future of education, such as the concept of learning in cyber parks and the use of “creative confidence” in learning.
The Concept of Successful Ageing from the Perspectives of Older Adults: An Empirical Typology
Authors:   Jan Długosz University in Częstochowa, Kozerska Agnieszka
Published: January 2023

Purpose: This paper attempts to examine the concept of successful ageing (SA) from the perspectives of older adults. Methods: Data were gathered from 224 persons. The research used a categorized interview and a test as methods of data collection. In order to select the types of subjective definitions of SA, the method of cluster analysis was applied. Results: 5 types of definitions were distinguished: 1) Around 40% of older adults consider the biomedical model to be in line with their idea of good old age, but they also add new components that they consider more important. These are: Living in an environment of loving persons (Type 1 definitions), and Religiousness, Generativity, Relationships with others based on love (Type 4). 2) About 40% of the respondents’ present one-dimensional definitions, with one of the following factors: Family (Type 2), and Religiousness (Type 3). 3) Lack of a precise definition is more often demonstrated in people with low life satisfaction who have been experiencing difficult life situations in recent times. Conclusions: Understanding of SA depends on life satisfaction and the context related to the life situation. Three key words are essential for the definitions: family, activity, religion.

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurological disease characterized by the progressive loss of motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord. No effective therapeutic strategies have been established thus far, and therefore there is a significant unmet need for effective therapeutics to arrest the disease and reverse the pathologies induced by it. Although the cause of ALS is not well-defined, it appears to be heterogenous. Currently over 20 genes have been found to be associated with ALS. Family history can only be found in 10% of ALS patients, but in the remaining 90% no association with family history is found. The most common genetic causes are expansion in the C9orf72 gene and mutations in superoxide dismutase 1, TDP-43, and FUS. In our recent study, we also found mutations in TDP43 and FUS in ALS patients. To understand the pathogenesis of the disease, we set ourselves the task of analyzing the phenotype and function of all key immune effectors in ALS patients, comparing them with either a genetically healthy twin or healthy individuals. Our study demonstrated a significant increase in functional activation of NK and CD8+ T cytotoxic immune effectors and release of significant IFN-γ not only by the effector cells but also in the serum of ALS patients. Longitudinal analysis of CD8+ T cell-mediated IFN-γ secretion from ALS patients demonstrated continued and sustained increase in IFN-γ secretion with periods of decrease which coincided with certain treatments; however, the effects were largely short-lived. N-acetyl cysteine (NAC), one of the treatments used, is known to block cell death; however, even though such treatment was able to block most of the proinflammatory cytokines, chemokines, and growth factor release, it was not able to block IFN-γ and TNF-α, the two cytokines we had demonstrated previously to induce differentiation of the cells. In this review, we discuss the contribution of cytotoxic effector cells, especially primary NK cells, supercharged NK cells (sNK), and the contribution of sNK cells in expansion and functional activation of CD8+ T cells to memory/effector T cells in the pathogenesis of ALS. Potential new targeted therapeutic strategies are also discussed.
