Authors: Szakály Sándor
Published: December 2023

A szerző évtizedek óta művelt kutatási témája a két világháború közötti magyar katonai elit. Alkotó munkájának eredményei tették lehetővé a magyar katonai elithez fűződő, pártállami indíttatású téveszmék megcáfolását (a tisztek arisztokraták, műveletlenek és dorbézolók voltak stb.). Tanulmányából egyértelműen kitűnik, hogy a vizsgált időszakban a Magyar Királyi Csendőrség felső vezetői kétség kívül a magyar katonatiszti kar részét alkották. Olyan kimagasló műveltséggel és szakmai tudással, valamint példamutató jellemvonásokkal rendelkeztek, amelyet a harmadik évezred magyar rendvédelmi testületeinek a vezető rétege még nem ért utol.

Published: December 2023

On the one hand, water scarcity poses challenges to the growth, development, longevity and resistance of grapes to diseases and low temperatures, on the other hand, however, it is necessary to obtain a high-quality harvest. Under the conditions of increasing continentality of the climate, it is of great importance to breed the cultivars characterised by effective fruiting without damaging the grape plant under drought conditions. Identifying characteristics of drought resistance in grapes is a challenging task, given the size of the plants, the extended development period, the absence of a specific criterion for drought resistance and the labour-intensive and time-consuming nature of the exploratory analysis. This study proposes the use of intact leaves from a specific grape variety placed in controlled environmental conditions as a model system. The paper assesses the applicability of intact grape leaves as a reliable model for evaluating drought resistance in the cultivar. It compares variations in physiological parameters—electrolyte leakage, chlorophyll stability index, and malonyldialdehyde content—observed in intact leaves under the influence of sorbitol and in leaf discs under the influence of polyethylene glycol with different concentrations and exposure times. The variations of physiological parameters in grape leaves subjected to controlled soil drought were used as a reference standard. In two independent experiments in 2022-2023, exposure to simulated intense soil drought for three weeks revealed cultivar differences in the ratio of electrolyte leakage and chlorophyll stability index in the test and control cultivars. Similar results were obtained in an experiment on intact grape leaves placed in a 10 % sorbitol solution for 3 hours. It was established that the cultivars ‘Morozko’, ‘Kutuzovsky’ and ‘Dostoiny’ exhibit higher drought resistance compared to the V. vinifera varieties ‘Cabernet Sauvignon’ and ‘Barkhatny’. This approach can be used as a preliminary method for determining the drought resistance of grape cultivars, independently or in combination with fi eld studies.

Published: December 2023

The present work aimed to make a didactic model called Caixa Teatral, related to the transformations of the primitive Earth for the development of life, and to evaluate it from the perspective of undergraduates in Biological Sciences. Planet Earth was a hostile place that did not allow the existence of life forms, from billions of years of transformations it was possible for life to arise. In this way, it is necessary to understand these processes, however, because they are contents marked by different theories and approaches, students may have difficulties in their learning. The use of didactic models as teaching-learning tools allows the conduction of subjects in the classroom in a practical, playful and illustrative way. Therefore, the National Curricular Common Base provides for the construction of knowledge about the transformations of the primitive Earth for the development of life within the theme Life, Earth and Cosmos. In this sense, from the creation of the didactic model “Caixa Teatral” it was presented to undergraduate students of Biological Sciences to demonstrate its use in teaching the contents of Earth's evolution and emergence of life. Subsequently, a questionnaire was applied to assess the perception of future teaching professionals about the exposed didactic model. Through it, it was possible to identify the profile of these students, to know the way in which the teaching of the contents worked in Caixa Teatral took place during the high school of these students and to acquire the evaluation of the didactic model from the perspective of the licentiates. Therefore, it was possible to perceive that non-traditional methods enable effective education, with Caixa Teatral being a cheap, applicable and efficient teaching tool.

Published: December 2023

O presente artigo discute a importância do estágio supervisionado, atividade exigida nos cursos de licenciatura na formação de professores, realizado no curso de Química do Instituto Federal de Pernambuco/ Campus Vitória de Santo Antão, e como campo de estágio escolhemos uma instituição privada. O contexto relacional entre teoria e prática apresenta um importante significado na formação de professores, sendo assim imprescindível para obtenção do domínio dos instrumentos necessários para a execução da funções do professor em sala de aula, oportunizando a construção da sua identidade profissional. Isto posto, o estágio supervisionado vem com a função de interligar esses dois pontos, teoria-prática, visando beneficiar a experiência que possibilita ao indivíduo a compreensão da realidade a qual irá encarar em seu cotidiano, seja em escolas públicas ou privadas e promovendo assim a desenvoltura dos futuros docentes no campo profissional.  Para isso, foi escolhido um colégio que apresentasse espaço-tempo necessários para realização de metodologias ativas, assim como foi realizado a priori uma busca sobre as formas de ministrar o conteúdo pelos professores das escolas circunvizinhas, o que levou na escolha do professor que mais utilizasse diversas ferramentas na construção do processo de ensino-aprendizagem. Na escolha do colégio X (assim o chamaremos para não haver identificação da escola) que é uma instituição privada, localizada na cidade da Vitória de Santo Antão, objetivamos com esse trabalho compreender como a elaboração de recursos didáticos – roteiros experimentais – podem contribuir com a formação inicial de professores no estágio supervisionado, e para observação/atuação foi escolhido a turma de 9° ano do ensino fundamental, a qual tem como professor que ministra a disciplina de ciências da natureza, subdividida em Química e Física e uma eletiva  sobre tópicos experimentais também relacionado a Química.

Published: December 2023

Through the process of cultural hybridization form a unique identity by mixing elements from interaction of cultures which has occurred throughout the world since the past. Representation of this identity can be understood with the dressing styles of cultures. With the influence of foreign cultures by the exposure throughout history, Sri Lankan culture has formed a unique identity with the hybridization process. The beginning of colonialism with Portuguese intervention and European culture marked a pivotal point in Sri Lanka's cultural identity, which lasted to the present. This study is conducted with the association of hybrid community Portuguese burghers located in Batticaloa and their traditional practices that developed as a result of cultural interaction that occurred during the Portuguese era in the eastern coastal area that has been identified as a cultural exchange zone using the hybrid component identification methodology suggested by Historian Peter Burke in order to analyze the process of hybridity formation and the reasoning behind the cultural identity formation. The study will primarily focus on female dressing associated with the community's Marriage ceremony traditions to understand the dressing and cultural identity formation with hybridization through data gathering methods such as interviews, literature, and visual observation of documents. In order to formulate a conclusion for the research, the study examines the history, traditional practices, cultural influences, and current condition, as well as the discussion of findings. Through a careful analysis of historical context and utilizing the hybridity research method, it was evident that the formation of a unique Sri Lankan cultural identity involved intentional reasoning from the perspective of the Portuguese and oppression and intentionality from the Sri Lankan perspective. This hybrid identity, embracing elements from both Portuguese and Sri Lankan cultures, culminated in the emergence of the Burgher community. However, in the present day, this community faces challenges of counter-globalization and external cultural pressures, pushing them to assert their identity within society. Researchers can expand on the study of cultural hybridity and identity formation through dressing, with a focus on Portuguese intervention. They have the opportunity to investigate the dance practices of the Portuguese Burghers and the African-influenced Kaffir community using the same framework. Alternatively, they can explore other cultures' influence on Sri Lankan culture, utilizing this research's framework to gain deeper insights into the process of cultural hybridization and its impact on identity formation.

Authors: Jankauskaitė-Jokūbaitienė Vitalija
Published: December 2023

The growing number of research investigating the efficacy of Web 2.0 tools in ESP classroom (Selevičienė 2020; Almuhaisen et al 2020; Rodgers and Dhonnchadha 2018; Šulovská 2013) has revealed the positive effect of technology integration on the development of students’ language learning in higher education. However, the implementation of web-based technologies, namely digital video creation for language learning, has been scarcely discussed through the prism of K-12 environment. The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness of video making in L2 acquisition of English from the perspective of secondary learners and explicate the potential strengths and weaknesses of its utilisation in the ESL classroom. Qualitative research methodology was employed to analyse an open-ended survey. Tenth and ninth graders were asked to produce their responses to a two-fold questionnaire aimed at evaluating the use of video making for revisiting target vocabulary of the lesson. The current research indicates a polarised view of video making practice in the ESL classroom. Regarding the potential of video creation, learners admitted it being beneficial for the acquisition of vocabulary, when it comes to memorising it, forming strong associations, comprehending and communicating the meaning more properly. Yet the results of the study also demonstrated that creating content via video aids proved to be relatively demanding and time consuming due to lack of ICT skills in video making, not sufficient Internet connection speed or restrictions imposed on time and vocabulary limit. The study may provide English language instructors with useful insights as to how the use of video creation may facilitate the learners’ acquisition of vocabulary and how possible hindrances can be prevented to achieve more effective learning outcomes with the aid of digital video making tools in the ESL classroom. The major contribution to the research in this field is its focus on the adoption of video making method in the English as the second language classroom considering the context of secondary education in Lithuania.
Lending and Borrowing in the Teaching of Sirach (Sir 29:1–7)
Authors: Piwowar Andrzej
Published: December 2023

Among the various topics and issues that Ben Sira discusses in his book is the issue of borrowing. The sage covers it in detail and at length in Sir 29:1–7, presenting it not from a financial and economic perspective, but from a sapiential viewpoint, appropriate to the nature of his work. The purpose of this article is to explore Sirach’s teaching on the subject of borrowing and lending of material goods. As a preliminary matter, the issue of borrowing in the setting of the ancient Near East and in biblical Israel is presented in a highly synthetic manner. Next, the boundaries of the literary unit that is the subject of the presented analyses and its structure are defined. In the remainder of the article, the Greek text of Sir 29:1–7 (the Hebrew version of this pericope is not known) is exegetically analyzed drawing on the historical-critical method. The examined literary unit is divided into two main parts. The first is a discussion of the general rules concerning lending and borrowing, i.e. based on the texts of the Torah, the obligation to grant a loan also reminds one of the obligation to return the debt according to the terms agreed upon. The second part of the pericope depicts the difficulties associated with not returning borrowed goods on the part of dishonest borrowers (delay in returning the loan, making excuses, even aggression towards the creditor). Fundamental to the sage’s teaching on the subject of borrowing are the texts of the Pentateuch saying that one should give loans. However, the author is a realist and therefore devotes much of his reflection on the issue to the difficulties involved in returning borrowed goods, with a view to encouraging his disciples to adopt an attitude of prudence and caution lest they suffer the loss of some of their possessions. Yet, despite these risks, he encourages them to support those in need with loans.
Understanding the Catholic Notion of Redemptive Suffering in a Contemporary Context
Authors: Yuen Hiu-tung
Published: December 2023

Although the Catholic Church nowadays still officially values the ideas of self-sacrifice and the redemptive nature of suffering, academically, there exists a tendency to adapt these ideas to modern values. With the advancement of medical technology, the pursuit of health predominates the mindset of modern people and the practice of redemptive suffering turns out to be an outdated or even ridiculous idea. At the societal level, it is a problem concerning the incompatibility between Catholic dogmas and secular values. At the individual level, it is a question of believing these “empirically unbelievable” religious doctrines without being in a curious form of schizophrenia and insincerity. This paper attempts to examine the difficulties in understanding the Catholic notion of redemptive suffering in the twenty-first century. We attempt to demonstrate that the unintelligibility of this notion lies not in the idea of the willing sacrifice of a person for another human being; rather, it is more concerned with the content and way of suffering, as well as the explanation offered for it. We then suggest that taking the “supernatural Catholic worldview” seriously is an important condition to attain a deeper understanding of the notion of redemptive suffering. Lastly, we will examine whether the notion lacks contemporary significance by looking into some cases in the Catholic communities nowadays.

The article attempts to reconstruct the most dramatic episode of Sologub’s and Chebotarevs-kaya’s later days, their persistent efforts to emigrate from the Soviet Russia between 1919 and 1921. The recently discovered documents (primarily from the Russian State Military Archive), enrich the chronicle of these attempts with new documents and characters; the role of L. D. Trotsky, L. B. Kamenev and other prominent Bolsheviks appears in a different light. A letter from A.V. Kartashev to K. K. Enkel, requesting an entrance permit to Finland (March 1919), is published in the Appendix.

Background: The axillary artery is a direct continuation of the subclavian artery. The axillary artery is usually described as giving off six branches. The first part gives superior thoracic artery. The second part gives lateral thoracic (LT) and thoracoacromial(TAC) arteries. The third part gives three, subscapular(SS), anterior circumflex humeral(ACH)and posterior circumflex humeral(PCH) arteries. Anatomical variations in the branching pattern of axillary artery are quiet common and typically include the subscapular artery(SS), lateral thoracic artery(LT) and the posterior circumflex humeral artery(PCH). The variation of the axillary artery branching pattern has anatomical as well as clinical and surgical relevance given the proximity to the shoulder joint and humerus.Patients & Method: Bilateral axilla dissection was conducted on 26 embalmed axillae (13 cadavers) to allow examination of the axillary artery and its branches. The study was carried out in Department of Human Anatomy, College of Medicine.Results: The classical branching pattern of the LT originating from the axillary artery posterior to the pectoralis minor muscle and the SS producing the circumflex scapular (CS) artery and thoracodorsal(TD) occurred in 77%. The SS was observed originating from the LT 7% of the time. The LT was observed originating from the SS 5% of the time. The LT was observed producing the circumflex scapular artery and TD in the absence of SS 2.5% of the time. The PCH originated from four different sources, from the third part of axillary artery as is classically described in 77%. From the SS 11%. From deep brachial artery DB 9% and from LT 2%.Conclusion: Vascular variation in the axillary artery and its branches is quiet common , This variation should be considered seriously as will implicate risk of bleeding during surgery in the axilla and also the difficulty in interpretation of the angiography after axillary catheterization.
VISUAL INTEGRATION OF SCULPTURE IN FORMING THE IMAGE OF THE CITY

Published: December 2023

This work examines the issue of the phenomenon of modern sculpture and its influence on the formation of urban space. It has been established that Ukrainian sculpture is a young art that has undergone changes of generations and aesthetic views. Modern sculpture, creating new and modifying existing cultural and symbolic images of settlements, plays an extremely important role in creating the effect of authenticity of urban space, strengthens its cultural, artistic and historical meaning, is a kind of effective means of actualizing cultural memory. It is renewed not only according to the laws of the internal logic of classical fine art, but also inspired by external tectonic factors. 

The image of the city creates, first of all, spiritual and scientific life, forming its cultural, artistic and intellectual states, a certain level of quality of the social dimension - aspirations and needs of residents, culture and art, consciousness and language. 

It is small urban sculpture designed to create or emphasize the uniqueness and originality of each specific place, designed to awaken imagination and emotions. After all, it is precisely through it that the connection between architecture and fine art is possible, which aestheticizes the environment and life of a person, appealing to his feelings and thinking at the same time, brings variety and harmony, which are so necessary for a person. 

As you know, a small plastic form attracts a person with its proportionality: it makes you want to approach it, touch it, take a picture. It is an integral and sometimes decisive part of the communication between the city and the person. It is the sculptures that make the city understandable, pleasant and accessible to people. A small urban sculpture can transform an ordinary space or strengthen existing advantages and place accents in a saturated historical center.

Many copies of a single plant can be grown using the plant tissue culture technology. These copies have the right characteristics to satisfy medical and nutritional demands. Secondary metabolites are purposefully synthesized by using the in vitro technique. These metabolites act as protectors for plants during stressful conditions and offer resistance against different organisms and factors, ultimately helping the plant to survive. With the passage of time, the development of new instruments for the improved synthesis of secondary metabolites via the genetic control of biosynthetic pathways has been aided by the speedy development of recombinant DNA technology. Plants generate a wide range of secondary metabolites that have various biological functions, such as fungicide, herbicide, anti-parasitic, and anti- microbial functions. Nanotechnology has the potential to drastically alter conventional plant growing methods and bring about the synthesis of flavonoids, anthocyanin, and diosgenin by using silver nanoparticles and cadmium oxide nanoparticles (CdONPs). The technique of callus cultures is increasingly utilized to produce secondary metabolites. Hence, the main objective of the current review is to increase the synthesis of secondary metabolites.
Carcinogenic Effects of Lead (Pb) on Public Health

Published: December 2023

Lead (Pb) is a potentially hazardous metal that penetrates the bones and blood as well as other major organs including the skin, liver, kidneys, and brain after being absorbed by the body. It is the most abundant heavy metal found in nature and utilized for a variety of industrial purposes. Lead is used in the manufacturing of bearings and printing fonts, as well as in the manufacturing of sulfuric acid, cable coverings, soldering products, guards in nuclear power stations, shields, vessels for radiation emitting materials, paints, ceramics, chemicals, and building structures. It is advantageous for physiological and biochemical processes in living beings in low concentrations. However, when it surpasses a specific threshold, it causes significant health issues. Lead is extremely persistent in nature and its continued use causes serious toxicological impacts, such as renal failure, carcinogenicity, high blood pressure, hematological effects, brain damage, reproductive system complications (in both men and women), bone screening, heart diseases, and liver damage. The available treatments, such as chelation therapy and other types of medicines, can help to reduce its adverse effects. The objective of this review is to delineate the adverse effects of lead on the human body, spanning from childhood to adulthood. Lead is a cumulative toxicant that affects multiple body systems and is particularly harmful to young children. The second major goal of this study is to define lead contamination and identify its sources and levels.

Entre las causas de la prevalencia de obesidad y sobrepeso de la población se encuentra la falta de actividad física. Según datos de la OMS, más del 80% de los adolescentes del mundo tiene un nivel insuficiente de actividad física. Objetivo: Analizar y comparar los niveles de actividad física, condición física e IMC de estudiantes de octavo básico y primero medio de un colegio de la ciudad de Talca. Método: Se evaluaron 136 estudiantes de 13,6 años de edad promedio, para los cuales se establecieron datos sociodemográficos, niveles de actividad física y condición física por medio de evaluaciones y test de autoreporte. Resultados: No se encontraron diferencias significativas en IMC entre hombres y mujeres (22,3±2,7 vs. 21,2 ± 4,8, p=0,17). Hubo un promedio bajo de 2,51±0,65 de actividad física; las mujeres presentaron una puntuación inferior (2,32±0,63) en comparación a los hombres (2,72±0,60) (p<0,000). En condición física, respecto a los sexos, se encontraron diferencias significativas en todas las variables evaluadas, siendo mayor en hombres. En base a las diferencias en horas de educación física se aprecian puntajes inferior de actividad física en estudiantes de octavo básico (2,57±0,67) en comparación a primero medio (2,47±0,64).
