SOCIO-ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL STATUS OF WOMEN: UNDERSTANDING THE INDIAN CONTEXT
Authors: MAHAMUDUL HASSAN  , ABDULLAH ASMUDEEN
Published: November 2023

One of the major problems of Indian society is the inferior position accorded to women. They do not enjoy equal status and their condition is far from satisfactory. In this article, we have tried to cover the condition, status and position of women in a different period, viz. Ancient, Medieval, British and Present Time. Any assessment of the status of women has to start with the social framework, social structures, cultural norms and value systems that influence social expectations regarding the behaviour of both men and women and determine women’s roles and their position in society. A society is composed of many institutions and most important of them are the system of decent, family and kinship, marriage and religious traditions. They provide the ideology and moral basis for men and women about their rights and duties and their status and role.

Authors: MD. RUHUL AMIN  , MD. RASHIDUL ISLAM SHEIKH
Published: November 2023

Women’s economic empowerment is an inevitable part of development discourse. Excluding women from the mainstream development program, institutionalization of a sustainable development process is just unthinkable. Bangladesh has great entrepreneurial potential. Entrepreneurships enhance financial independence and self esteem of women. About 83% of enterprises in the sample were established between the years 2000-2007 indicating that young women are gradually becoming interested in business and entrepreneurial activities and women’s visibility in economic sector is increasing. Consequently, under successive Five-Year-Plans, women’s development initiatives have been gradually integrated into the macro framework and multi-sectoral economy to bring women into the mainstream of economic development and encourage potential women entrepreneurs realizing their business plans. Women’s contribution to household income and family welfare, increasing women’s participation in household decisions about expenditure and other issues leading to greater expenditure on women’s welfare. The purpose of this paper is to show empowerment of women through SHGs.
IMPRESS: Impact of Baseline Depression in Multiple Sclerosis Patients Starting Treatment with Interferon β-1a
Authors: Salgado António , Silva Ângela , Santos Ernestina , Flores Catarina , Lau Rita
Published: November 2023

Introduction: Some studies suggest an association between interferon beta (IFNβ) therapies and the development of depression symptoms in multiple sclerosis (MS). This study aimed to evaluate the impact of baseline depression (BLD) on depression score variation at 24 months (m) in MS patients starting treatment with IFNβ-1a.

Methods: Multicenter, prospective, observational study in patients recently diagnosed with relapsing-remitting MS or clinically isolated syndrome, starting treatment with IFNβ-1a intramuscular. The physician and the patient completed a questionnaire in each visit (baseline, 6, 12, 18 and 24 m) including demographic and clinical data, disability, depression, fatigue, balance, mental state, sleepiness and coping, compliance with MS treatment, treatment discontinuation, and adverse events.

Results: A total of 110 patients were included in the analysis, 20% with BLD. Both patient groups (with and without BLD) were similarly distributed concerning baseline demographic and clinical characteristics, except for EDSS, that was higher in patients with BLD (median EDSS of 1.25±1.75 vs 1.0±1.5; p=0.047). In BLD patients, only depression severity varied significantly over the five evaluations (p=0.034), with a marked decrease at 6 months. In patients without BLD, no significant variations were observed. BLD had a significant effect on variation in depression severity at 24 m (p=0.0253) and baseline fatigue was a good predictor for global fatigue over the study period (p=0.0399).

Conclusion: Despite its impact on MS patients, depression is frequently underdiagnosed and undertreated. IMPRESS results suggest that BLD and fatigue scores in MS patients influence score variations over the treatment period. Further research on depression and MS association may lead to better understanding of this relation.
King-Denborough Syndrome: Report of a Family
Authors: Vasco João , Viveiros Eulália , Pires Paula
Published: November 2023

We report a case of an Azorean family with the diagnosis of the King-Denborough syndrome. Both mother and the two siblings present all the characteristic clinical findings of this syndrome – facial dysmorphias (with palpebral ptosis, malar hypoplasia, arched palate and micrognathia), musculoskeletal abnormalities (bell-shaped chest, pectus excavatum and lumbar hyperlordosis), diminished lower limbs strength with associated hyporeflexia and susceptibility to malignant hyperthermia. The diagnosis was possible after the youngest member of the family, now a 4-year-old girl, was born and referred to in-hospital consultation, due to the described constellation of dysmorphias and delay in motor development.
The aim of this article is to raise awareness to the importance of the correct investigation approach of a congenital myopathy, and in this specific case, to the importance of an early diagnosis that can be crucial to prevent a mostly fatal outcome for these patients.

Published: November 2023

Os tumores do ângulo ponto-cerebeloso e do canal auditivo interno são frequentes e correspondem, tipicamente, a schwannomas vestibulares (estes, raramente bilaterais) e meningiomas. Descreve-se o caso de um homem de 76 anos que se apresentou com um quadro de paralisia facial periférica persistente, secundária a um processo de neurolinfomatose primária bilateral dos nervos cranianos faciais e vestibulococleares devido a envolvimento sequencial de ambos os ângulos ponto-cerebelosos e canais auditivos internos por linfoma difuso de grandes células B. A neurolinfomatose é uma causa invulgar de lesões com esta topografia. O seu diagnóstico é, habitualmente, difícil e moroso e o prognóstico ominoso. Apesar disso, e em virtude da possibilidade de responder favoravelmente ao tratamento dirigido, se atempado, deve ser considerada aquando do diagnóstico diferencial de tumores do ângulo ponto-cerebeloso em doentes com evolução atípica e agressiva.

În perioada dintre 2007 și 2013 au fost efectuate campanii anuale de săpătură în situl arheologic de la Iepurești, unde a fost deschisă o suprafață de 85 mp, la periferia nordică a așezării. În această așezare au fost evidențiate niveluri de locuire și structuri de tip gropi atribuite culturii Glina și niveluri de locuire, gropi și locuințe ce pot fi atribuite culturii Gumelnița. În acest articol sunt analizate 14 artefacte, reprezentând întregul lot de figurine antropomorfe gumelnițene descoperit în sit. Cu toate că acest lot este puțin numeros și este foarte fragmentar, observațiile realizate asupra modului de fabricare, morfologiei, tehnicilor și motivelor decorative sunt foarte interesante și completează o imagine, și ea fragmentară, asupra unei categorii de obiecte de lut puțin cunoscute, datorită săpăturilor reduse ca număr în niveluri atribuite fazei A1 a culturii Gumelnița, așa cum sunt cele din așezarea de la Iepurești. Artefactele vor fi prezentate în contextul descoperirilor similare provenind din niveluri de locuire atribuite fazei incipiente a culturii Gumelnița, dar și într-un context cultural mai larg, al influențelor percepute ca fiind din medii culturale vecine.

În această notă analizăm un tip special de vas eneolitic din vechile colecţii ale Muzeului Naţional de Antichităţi (Institutul de Arheologie „Vasile Pârvan”), reconstituit din cinci fragmente. Cioburile aparţin aşezării de la Isvoarele – Fântânele (judeţul Giurgiu) şi au fost recuperate de E. Comşa în anii ‘50 cu ocazia unei periegheze în sudul Munteniei. Mai târziu, E. Comşa a întreprins o mică cercetare arheologică în sit stabilind stratigrafia şi secvenţa culturală: două niveluri Boian-Spanțov – şi unul aparţinând fazei A2 a culturii Gumelniţa (căruia îi poate fi atribuit vasul nostru fragmentar). Am încercat să discutăm analogiile pentru acest tip de vas la Dunărea de Jos şi posibilele lui funcţii, în ciuda faptului că nu cunoaştem prea multe recipiente de acest tip, lucru cauzat de lipsa unor săpături pe scară largă în aria gumelniţeană.

Ansamblul arheologic analizat în acest studiu provine din situl preistoric pluristratificat de la Șoimești – Merez (jud. Prahova). Piesele au fost descoperite în nivelurile de locuire atribuite perioadei timpurii a epocii bronzului și într-un mormânt de inhumație. Din os au fost confecționate mai ales vârfuri, urmate de falange perforate, dăltițe și un ac, în timp ce din corn a fost confecționată o daltă, iar din dinte, un racloir și un pandantiv. În mormânt, alături de alte piese de inventar funerar (vase, inel de argint, artefacte de cupru), au fost depuse pandantive de dinte de mamifere, alături de mărgele circulare de cochilie de bivalvă / scoică și tubulare de cochilie de scafopod. Toate piesele au fost analizate atât macroscopic, cât și microscopic, cu scopul de a reconstitui schemele tehnologice de transformare ale materiilor prime, precum și modalitățile de utilizare sugerate de modul de dezvoltare al uzurii. În final, pornind de la tipologia pieselor descoperite în situl preistoric de la Șoimești, am căutat să identificăm analogii în contexte culturale contemporane.

Zeii medicinei în coloniile milesiene de la Pontul Euxin: cult și reprezentare iconografică
Authors:   Universitatea de Vest din Timișoara, Feraru Remus Mihai
Published: November 2023

Studiul nostru are ca obiect cultul zeilor medicinei (Asclepios, Hygieia și Telesphoros) și reprezentările lor iconografice în coloniile milesiene situate pe țărmurile Pontului Euxin. Cercetarea noastră se bazează pe studiul documentelor epigrafice, literare, numismatice și arheologice (altare, basoreliefuri votive, statui monumentale, statuete). Zeii medicinei sunt adorați cu epicleze specifice care se regăsesc în spațiul cultual grec. Într-o primă etapă, în cursul secolului al IV-lea î. Hr., cultul lui Asclepios a fost introdus în panteoanele Olbiei și Panticapaionului. Într-o a doua etapă, începând din secolul al III-lea î. Hr., cultul zeilor medicinei a cunoscut o largă răspândire în Tracia, Moesia Inferior, și pe țărmurile sudic și vestic ale Pontului Euxin, mai ales după transformarea Traciei în provincie romană (46 d. Hr.). Majoritatea dovezilor referitoare la cultele lui Asclepios și al Hygiei, descoperite în coloniile milesiene situate pe țărmul sudic al Pontului Euxin datează din epoca romană. Reprezentările iconografice ale zeilor medicinei se caracterizează printr-o extraordinară uniformitate și reproduc fidel tipurile iconografice grecești.

Published: November 2023

Ritu, the season, changes with time and potentially influences the earth’s biological systems and human health
differently. Ayurveda has classified these seasons as per their effects, and to habituate to the seasonal variations,
specific rules and regimens have been mentioned by the Acharyas. These changes in diet and practices help the
body transition easily from one season to another. As the pediatric age group with comparatively less immunity is
more susceptible to the changes in the season, to prevent this age group from falling prey to seasonal diseases, it
is important to practice Ritucharya. India is a tropical country. Monsoons here are responsible for many health
conditions among the pediatric age group, and various scientific studies are the basis for this. In this review article, the regimens in diet and lifestyle, as mentioned in Varsha Ritu, and its importance in preventing health conditions during the rainy season in the pediatric age group have been discussed.

BLESSED ELIZABETH OF HUNGARY— WIFE OF KING MILUTIN
Authors: Stojkovski Boris , Babić Boris
Published: November 2023

The aim of this paper is to provide as detailed as possible the biography of Hungarian princess Elisabeth, who has for some time Serbian queen and wife of King Milutin. Firstly, her origin will be discussed in more details, as well as her early life. Furthermore, particular stress will be on her marriages, firstly with King Milutin. Determining the date of that marriage and the children who had born in that marriage are not completely solved in the historiography, but there are indeed some interesting details which are worth concerning. Her alleged second (or for some scholars her first) marriage to Zaviš of Falkenstein (d. in 1290) will also be a special topic of the paper, since this topic is maybe not so well discussed. Finally, the authors will tend to describe one of the most interesting parts dedicated to Elizabeth’s veneration as blessed in the Roman Catholic Church.
ZANATSTVO U DOBA KRALjA MILUTINA

The economic growth happened during the reign of King Uroš II Milutin in medieval Serbia based on the development of mining and technology leap, parallel with the processes of conquering new territories and byzantiontion, as the urbanization, affected the economic sector itself. The production of precious metals increases, money is minted and the trade flourishes. The strong financial basis finds its special reflection in the increase and strengthening of the army, but also in construction, which in the literature is characterized as above average for one ruler. In addition, apart from the construction itself and military craft production, there is also a flourishing of arts and handicrafts, as well as the use of certain materials. Moreover, there is a flourishing of artistic crafts, as well as further stratification and differentiation of crafts. At the same time, the influences of Byzantium on the craft, that were in the continuity flowed, strengthened in the time of Milutin, as through the alliance, which was crowned with marriage, or through the newly seized territories, which until then were in the Byzantine economic system. Also the arrival of skilled craftsmen from the territory of Byzantium, whose work is preserved both in written sources and in the form of immovable material remains, was one more step for gaining new knowledge of certain skills. Apart from the further development of the craft production, during Milutin's time there was a new codification of it, as it could be seen from Banjska charter, which is the first significant source on crafts organization and with legal norms about some crafts, that is preserved until today.
JOŠ JEDNOM O MESAZONU: LEKSIČKI PRILOG KA TUMAČENjU VIZANTIJSKE SLUŽBE

In the article we’ve examined those examples from the Byzantine sources which ware, according to our opinion, essential for the most accurate conclusion concerning the term μεσάζων (μεσιτεύων) ‘mediator, envoy,’ We’ve concluded that the expression μεσάζων (μεσιτεύων), in a grammatical sense participle of denominative verbs μεσάζω / μεσιτεύω, originated from a very wide semantic field of Greek adjective μέσος ‘middle, cental’ and it is in a close connection with a Greek noun μεσίτης. The morphology and semantics of the participle clearly expressed, as well as syntax of the expressions in which it is used in primary sources that the mesazon, in its essence, is person who mediates, negotiates, participates in agreements, serves as a guarantor that a document is submitted to the Emperor or that some task has been done. Based on the use of the term in primary sources, we are prone to agree with those contemporary historians who believe that this was not a formal administrative function, but, more likely, service of chosen individuals very close to the Emperor and people of his greatest confidence performing this mediating duty according to a certain need and situation. At the same time most of them, before or at the same time, were engaged in another service or had some different responsibility in byzantine administration.
TEODOR METOHIT I NjEGOV UČENIK NIĆIFOR GRIGORA NA DVOROVIMA KRALjA MILUTINA I STEFANA DEČANSKOG
Authors: Dimitrijević Milan S.
Published: November 2023

Theodore Metochites (Θεόδωρος Μετοχίτης; 1270–1332), a Byzantine Greek statesman and polymath, and his student, the greatest Byzantine astronomer Nicephoros Gregoras (1295-1360) were in several diplomatic missions on the courts of King Milutin and his son, King Stefan Dečanski. Both gave significant contributions in astronomy. Metochites, considered as the one of the greatest forerunners of the Renaissance in the Greek world, was a Platonist philosopher, astronomer and patron of the arts. From 1305 to 1328 he held the position of personal adviser (mesazon) to emperor Andronikos II Palaiologos. During his long political career he was also Great Logothetes (a kind of Prime Minister) of the Byzantine Empire. His teacher in astronomy was Manuel Bryennius. His known astronomical writting is an introduction to the study of Ptolemaic astronomy (Στοιχείωσις επί τη αστρονομική επιστήμη). Related to astronomy is also his paraphrases of Aristotle's works on natural philosophy and Σημειώσεις γνωμικαί (Annotations), where he provided an important critique of Aristotle. Metochites was five times on the court of King Milutin as the envoy of Andronikos II to make the peace with Serbia and to arrange the mariage of King Milutin with Simonida, grand daughter of the Byzantine emperor. He wrote a writting about his travels to Serbia (Пρεσβευτικός) which is translated to Serbian.
BOGOODABRANOST KRALjA MILUTINA U ŽITIJU DANILA DRUGOG

Hagiographies of old Serbian literature speak of rulers as individuals chosen by God, for the benefit of the people and the country they will rule. Archbishop Danilo, writing about his contemporary, points out that King Milutin surpassed all his predecessors in terms of gender and position in the country. Apart from the typical elements - describing the good deeds of the king, as well as his imposing fundraising endeavors, the peculiarity of this life is reflected in the constant emphasis on God's help to the great king during military campaigns. Regardless of whether the initiator of the conflict was King Milutin himself or the attack on Serbian lands came from the other side, those who opposed the king were punished with a horrible death, thwarted in the endeavor or diplomatically deterred from the original plan. The help that comes from the metaphysical spaces of Good and Truth is at the same time a description of miracles, but the kind of miracle that is less talked about in medieval literature - when the intervention of the Lord punishes, in the already mentioned ways, those who chose the path of evil. Since every attack of others on the Serbian king and the Serbian land is clearly motivated by the invention of the dishonorable, placing King Milutin in opposition to such exponents of reality indirectly speaks of his godliness, correctness of his decisions and actions, but also his orientation towards eschatology.
BOGOSLOVSKA POLEMIKA OKO RECEPCIJE LIONSKE UNIJE U ISTOČNOJ CRKVI U DOBA PALEOLOGA – ARGUMENTI PATRISTIČKOG PREDANjA
Authors: Stojanović Marina
Published: November 2023

Having in mind the central question of the unity of the Church, as a basis for a meta-historical eschatological being, but also the historical harmony of the spiritual, cultural and social existence of individuals and people, this paper discusses the theological context of the attempt to unite Eastern and Western Christianity at the Council of Lyon in 1272-1274 in the time of Emperor Michael VIII Palaeologos. In addition to the political factors in accepting the proposal of the Lyon Union, the deeper, and more predominant, reasons for the negative reception of this council by the Orthodox Byzantium will be mentioned and analyzed here. In that context, attention will be paid to the theological notion of tradition, as well as to the preservation of basic patristic notions and ideas in the historical environment of late Byzantium.
POSLEDOVANjE OMIVANjA NOGU NA VELIKI ČETVRTAK U TIPIKU ARHIEPISKOPA NIKODIMA

Taking into account the fact that the acolouthy of the Footwashing on Maundy Thursday had been formed in Jerusalem, probably during 5th Century, the existence of this rite in Typicon of Nicodemus, Archbishop of Serbia (1316- 1324), is an inspiring subject for liturgiological research. Although this acolouthy is well-known in Greek as Ὁ νιπτὴρ or τὸ νίμμα, we have approached to this topic by theological and teleturgical studying of its origin. The roots of this rite lie in the early centuries of Christianity, with various additions, deletions and variations of the specific acolouthy in use even nowadays in some of the centers of the Eastern Orthodox Church. The acolouthy of the Footwashing on Maundy Thursday has been shaped in 10th Century in two different modalities, one for the urban churches, and another one for the monastic churches at the Orthodox East. The rite from Typicon of Nicodemus (1319) belongs to the group of monastic acolouthies with direct impact of liturgical praxis of the Holy City of Jerusalem and Constantinopolitan monasteries. It implies that should be performed immediately after the Ambo prayer on Maundy Thursday’s Holy Liturgy in the pronaos of the monastic church. Such an acolouthy had retained some aspects of the earlier prayer for the sanctification of the water for the footwashing and also rubric for the anointing of all assembled in the church. The acolouthy of the Footwashing on Maundy Thursday in Typicon of Nicodemus is very important testimony about vivid and strong liturgical life of the Eastern Orthodox Serbs and Archbishopric of the Serbian and Maritime Lands in the 14th Century.
SLUŽBA SVETOM KRALjU STEFANU MILUTINU U RUSKIM BOGOSLUŽBENIM RUKOPISIMA XVI–XIX VEKA
Authors: Rašković Ana
Published: November 2023

The cult of the Serbian Holy king Stephan Milutin existed in the Russian Orthodox Church from the second half of 16th to the beginning of the 19th century. This is evidenced by 12 liturgical manuscripts (Festal Menaions and various types of Sticherarions) from the most significant Russian monasteries – The Holy Trinity St. Sergius Monastery, Kirillo-Beloyersky Monastery and Moscow, in which the Holy king is mentioned under the date of October the 30th. Nine of the manuscripts (two menaions and seven sticherarions with Russian neumatic notation) preserved the Service to the Holy king Milutin by Danilo Bansky or its parts (usually sticheras prosomoions). The analysis of the texts showed that the hymongraphic composition and textual content in the Russian manuscripts did not change significantly in comparing to the Serbian transcripts. The Serbian transcript of the Service to the Holy king reached the Moscow Metropolitanate in 1550 and became a protograph from which the Russian transcripts were made. However, the spread of the cult of the Holy King Milutin and the multiplication of the transcripts of Service in his honor in Russia was stopped by the reform of Patriarch Nikon in the middle of the 17th century when, due to revision of the calendar and reduction of holidays, many books were destroyed and cults were abolished. For that reason, the Service to the Holy king Milutin did not enter the Russian written and old printed Menaions for October, just as the mention of the Holy king did not find a place in the calendar of the printed editions of the Jerusalem Typikon. In post-Nikon epoch, the cult of the Holy king Milutin continued to live in the old believer’s communities, where the hymnography in his honor was preserved in musical manuscripts until the beginning of the 19th century. The entire historical development of the cult of the Serbian Holy king Stephan Milutin in Russian Church shows how important topic he was not only in Russian liturgical literature, but also in church-singing art.
HOLY KING MILUTIN – PROTECTOR OF “ALL SERBIAN AND BULGARIAN LAND”
Authors: Vasiljević Marija
Published: November 2023

This paper analyses the evolution of the veneration of the Ser- bian King Stefan Uroš II Milutin (1282–1321) with regards to the trans- lation of his relics to Sofia (before 1469). Besides providing an analysis of the specific manifestations of his cult in Sofia, the aim of the paper is to demonstrate the polyphony of the memories of saints as an important characteristic of their veneration. As in this case, this dynamic of the saint’s veneration is often caused by wider social and political changes, thus sig- nalling its “social logic.”
