Authors: Tarando Elena , Lipatova L.
Published: December 2022

The indicators reflecting the achievement of national development goals in terms of living standards in St. Petersburg are analyzed.It was found that the pandemic had the greatest negative impact on the implementation of the national projects "Demography" and "Health Care". And in the country as a whole, and in St. Petersburg, in particular, the mortality rate has increased and the life expectancy of the population has decreased. Housing construction is actively underway in St. Petersburg, although its volumes have decreased slightly. The pandemic has not significantly affected the implementation of goals in this area. The availability of the Internet information and telecommunications network for residents of St. Petersburg is at one of the highest levels in the country, and the pandemic has given this process an additional impetus. It is proposed to revise the deadlines for the implementation of the national projects "Demography" and "Healthcare". It is also necessary to make adjustments to the content of these programs, taking into account the peculiarities of demographic development during the pandemic, in particular, health professionals should develop in-depth medical examination programs that will identify the consequences of COVID-19 for human health.

Authors: Irori Queenett , gben Harvey G.O.I , Nwanne Ben
Published: December 2022

The study examined the role of radio in the campaign on birth control in Delta State. Through purposive sampling of 60 study participants it was established that the radio has been influential and quite effective in the campaign on birth control in Delta State. Though the rate of compliance is relatively commendable, certain factors, especially in rural area, which include the people’s level of education, perception, sociocultural factor, as well as the issue of misinformation about the practice, have affected the high rate of compliance in the State. The study therefore recommends that there should be frequent and proper radio programmes induced enlightenment about birth control, mostly in rural area where there is high level of reproduction, and misinformation about radio campaign on birth control.

Энецкие показатели каритива и их прасамодийские источники
Authors:   Institute of Linguistic Studies, RAS (St. Petersburg), Urmanchieva Anna
Published: December 2022

The article examines three caritive markers in the Enets language: a verbal one -se (‘not to have something’), an attributive one -seδa/-seδe (‘(a person) not having something’) and an adverbial one -śuδiɁ (‘being without something’). It analyzes their Samoyedic cognates, both quite transparent and less obvious ones. The etymology of the attributive caritive marker is quite transparent even at the synchronic level: the forms of the attributive caritive (-se-δe) are imperfective participles from verbal caritive forms (-se). However, the formation of the imperfective participle in Enets in this case is accompanied by a complicated morphonological phenomenon: the form of the participial morpheme (-δe) with a fricative rather than a stop points to a glide that precedes that participial marker. Based on its Nganasan (adverbial caritive marker -kaj) and Mator (attributive caritive marker -gǝsta/-kǝsta) cognates, a protoform with the glide *j is reconstructed: for the verbal caritive, *-kaj, for the attributive caritive, *-kaj-ntå-jǝ̑. The etymology of the adverbial caritive marker -śuδiɁ is somewhat less obvious. The final -Ɂ is a reflex of the Proto-Northern Samoyedic adverbializer, which is used to form adverbs from adjectives (and causes the change of the quality of the preceding vowel). Accordingly, the adverbial form -śuδiɁ is formed from the hypothetical attributive form **-śuδe, which also resembles a participial form (-śu-δe). The allomorph of the participial marker (-δe) also points to a preceding etymological glide. In Mator, there is another caritive marker -gǝda/-kǝda, which can only go back to *-kaw-ntå(-jǝ̑): the protoform without the glide would have resulted in Mator **-gǝnda/-kǝnda, the protoform with the glide *j results in another Mator caritive marker -gǝsta /-kǝsta, mentioned above. The glide *w can also explain the appearance of the close back rounded vowel in Enets -śuδiɁ.
«Букварь для вотяцких детей Сарапульского уезда»: графико-орфографические и фонетические особенности

Published: December 2022

The article describes the vowel and consonant features of the “Primer book for Votyak children of the Sarapul districtˮ (1913). It is practically impossible to consider the phonetic isoglosses of this written record without taking into account its graphic and spelling system; therefore, the article also pays special attention to the graphics and orthography of the source material. The phonetic features are described by comparing the vowel and consonant system of the primer with the vowel and consonant system of the modern Udmurt literary language, adding, whenever available, correspondences from the dialect dictionary by Y. Wichmann [Wichmann 1987], the materials for which were collected at the end of the 19th century. Furthermore, corresponding modern forms from the audio dictionaries based on 2013 field data are also indicated. Such a comparison makes it possible to try to determine the archaic or innovative nature of each identified feature. The analysis shows that most of the phonetic features of the primer, both innovative and archaic, are characteristic of modern dialects of the Southern dialect zone. It follows that this record was most likely written in one of the dialects located on the border of the Middle and Central-Southern dialects of the Udmurt language, i. e. its present-day counterpart would be the dialect of the northern part of the Malopurginsky district of the Udmurt Republic. However, it turns out to be difficult to locate it more precisely at the moment as, unfortunately, this area is described by dialectologists rather poorly today.
Распределение переднеязычных щелевых согласных в говорах карельского языка Средней Карелии (на основе применения алгоритма «анализ когнатов» лингвистической платформы ЛингвоДок)

Published: December 2022

The article reports the results of an analysis of the distribution of front fricative consonants in the Middle Karelian group of Karelian sub-dialects. The study area was chosen due to its position at a transition between Karelian supradialects, where two opposite sibilant presentation systems collide. Intensive migrations of Karelians inside the study area have generated a fairly sophisticated situation with the phenomenon in question: which consonant variant is used depends on quite a few factors (opening or closing position in the word, presence of the vowel i in the immediate vicinity, front or back vocalism of the word, quality of the second component in consonant blends), which appear in different combinations across the distribution range. Application of the cognate analysis algorithm of LingvoDoc linguistic platform to the thematic dictionaries, which were made using the “Programs for collecting material for the dialectal atlas of the Karelian language” filled out in the mid-20th century in 146 settlements in Karelia, permitted determining which specific word beginning and middle phonetic positions influence the distribution of possible variants of front fricatives in the Middle Karelian sub-dialect group. Visualization of the results in a map brings about the conclusion about the areal nature of the dialect differentiating phonetic phenomenon, on the one hand, and demonstrates that the main sibilant distribution isoglosses do not coincide with the boundaries of Karelian dialects and supradialects in the traditional division, on the other.
Распределение фонем в татарском тексте: опыт квантитативного исследования
Authors:   NextGIS Company (Moscow), Galieva Alfiya
Published: December 2022

Along with the qualitative description of phonemes which is presented in Tatar grammars, their quantitative description is often required. Such a research should be performed on a sufficient volume of text data which would contain lexical items in their natural surroundings and reflect basic regularities of the language system. This paper analyzes the distribution of phonemes and phoneme combinations in the story by Amirkhan Yeniki “Äytelmägän vasɪyät” (“The unspoken testament”). The research material was the text converted to a phonologically relevant form. The absolute and relative frequencies (using the quantiles of the standard normal distribution) are provided for each of the 34 phonemes distinguished in the text. The approach to data normalization (z-statistics) is based on information about both the number of phonemes depending on their position (wordinitial, wordfinal or wordmedial), and the total number of occurrences of each phoneme in the text; this allows us to retain information about positional features of low frequency phonemes and to find individual tendencies for each cell in the contingency table. The deviation of the z-statistics from the quantiles of the standard normal distribution (-1.96, 1.96) indicates the character of phoneme sequences in the language. It is shown that for the absolute majority of Tatar phonemes, the z-statistics are far beyond the interval (-1.96, 1.96), with the exception of borrowed phonemes |ц| and |щ|, as well as the low-frequency phoneme |ж|, which indicates the random nature of the distribution of these phonemes in Tatar. The syntagmatic component of the phonological system, just like the inventory of phonemes, is unique for each language, so without such study the phonological description would be incomplete. That is why a special section examines Tatar phoneme sequences using the example of two and three phoneme combinations. Since there is often a gap in grammar books between the descriptions of the phonological and morphological levels, quantitative information on phonemes is complemented with grammatical interpretation; in particular, the author shows that high frequency combinations of phonemes are associated with affixes and stems, which is determined by the agglutinative structure of the Tatar language.
Компаративно-аттенуативная полисемия в финно-угорских языках
Authors:   HSE University (Moscow), Cheremisinova Maria
Published: December 2022

The topic of this paper is comparative and attenuative polysemy in Finno-Ugric languages. In some Finno-Ugric languages comparative markers have attenuative meaning (‘a little bit, slightly’) as well. This paper focuses on three markers exhibiting such a polysemy: -ges in Beserman (Permic), -šək in Kazym Khanty (Ugric) and -rak in Hill Mari (Mari). These markers can be used in comparative constructions, have attenuative function and can be attached to the markers of negation. The markers can be used crosscategorically, therefore I also describe compatibility of the markers in different functions. In comparative constructions, all of the markers can be attached to adjectives and adverbs, while in Beserman it is also possible for the marker -ges to be combined with verbs, nouns and pronouns. However, in Kazym Khanty the marker -šək has attenuative meaning even in comparative constructions. In attenuative function, the markers in all three languages can attach to adjectives, adverbs, postpositions (or relational nouns), while in Beserman and Hill Mari verbs can be modified by the markers as well. Finally, comparative-attenuative markers in all of the languages can be attached to the markers of negation. In this function, the most common context allowing the use of the marker is the context meaning ‘not yet’: it appears in all of the described languages. In Kazym Khanty the marker -šək can also express the meaning of emphatic negation (‘no way’) when making a reference to future or present.

Published: December 2022

При решении задачи групповой классификации уравнений, описывающих движение чисто механического континуума, появились некоторые новые системы дифференциальных уравнений, которые можно использовать для описания реальных физических процессов. Одна из таких новых систем: асимметричная теория упругости. Эта система может быть использована для материалов имеющих малый модуль Юнга, а также для материалов, которые работают при нагрузках близких к критическим. В данной работе изучаются уравнения асимметричной теории упругости на основе их группового расслоения: разложения системы на автоморфную и разрешающую системы, которые являются системами дифференциальных уравнений первого порядка. Построены бесконечные серии законов сохранения для разрешающей системы уравнений и автоморфной системы. Эти законы позволили решить краевую задачу Дирихле для асимметричной теории упругости в двумерном случае. Решения построены в виде квадратур, которые вычисляются по контуру исследуемой области.

When solving the problem of group classification of equations describing the motion of a purely mechanical continuum, some new systems of differential equations have appeared that can be used to describe real physical processes. One of such new systems is the asymmetric theory of elasticity. This system can be used for materials with a small Young’s modulus, as well as for materials that operate at loads close to critical. In this paper, the equations of the asymmetric theory of elasticity are studied on the basis of their group bundle: decomposition of the system into automorphic and resolving systems, which are systems of differential equations of the first order. Infinite series of conservation laws are constructed for a resolving system of equations and an automorphic system. These laws made it possible to solve the Dirichlet boundary value problem for the asymmetric theory of elasticity in the two-dimensional case. The solutions are constructed in the form of quadratures, which are calculated along the contour of the studied area.

Authors: Субботин Сергей Львович , Алексеев Андрей Алексеевич
Published: December 2022

В работе для случая плоского напряженного состояния получены определяющие соотношения связи за пределом упругости между напряжениями и деформациями в скоростях. За параметр прослеживания принимается обобщенное время, монотонно возрастающее в процессе деформирования. Представленные соотношения с конкретизированными функционалами пластичности позволяют решать краевые задачи в рамках теории упругопластических процессов с использованием метода конечных элементов в скоростях.

For the case of a plane stress state, the constitutive relations of the connection beyond the elastic limit between stresses and strains in velocities are obtained. The tracking parameter is taken to be the generalized time, which increases monotonically in the course of deformation. The presented relations with specified plasticity functionals make it possible to solve boundary value problems based on the theory of elastoplastic processes using the finite element method in velocities.

Authors: Мурашкин Евгений Валерьевич , Радаев Юрий Николаевич
Published: December 2022

В настоящей работе обсуждаются вопросы использования в механике сплошных сред ковариантно постоянных тензоров и псевдотензоров (в том числе, двухточечных) произвольной валентности и целого веса в Евклидовых пространствах. В работе продемонстрировано, что тензоры дистории и обратной дисторсии не являются ковариантно постоянными двухточечными тензорами, в противовес указаниям на их ковариантное постоянство, встречающееся в литературных источниках по нелинейной механике континуума. Приводится общая форма упругого потенциала для линейного анизотропного микрополярного континуума. На основе неконвенционального определения полуизотропного тензора приводятся координатные представления определяющих тензоров и псевдотензоров четвертого ранга в терминах дельт Кронекера и метрических тензоров. Показывается ковариантное постоянство определяющих линейный анизотропный микрополярный континуум тензоров и псевдотензоров четвертого ранга.

The present paper is devoted to applications of covariantly constant tensors and pseudotensors (including two-point ones) of arbitrary valency and integer weight in Euclidean spaces to continuum mechanics. The tensors of distortion and inverse distortion are not covariantly constant two-point tensors, in contrast to their covariant constancy mentions found in the literature on nonlinear continuum mechanics. The general form of the elastic potential for a linear anisotropic micropolar continuum is given. Based on the non-conventional definition of a semi-isotropic tensor, coordinate representations of constitutive tensors and pseudotensors of the fourth rank are given in terms of Kronecker deltas and metric tensors. The covariant constancy of the constitutive tensors and pseudotensors of the fourth rank for the linear anisotropic micropolar continuum is shown.
Hard X-Ray Observations of the Hydrogen-poor Superluminous Supernova SN 2018hti with NuSTAR

Published: December 2022

Some hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae are likely powered by a magnetar central engine, making their luminosity larger than common supernovae. Although a significant amount of X-ray flux is expected from the spin-down of the magnetar, direct observational evidence is still to be found, giving rise to the “missing energy” problem. Here we present NuSTAR observations of nearby SN 2018hti 2.4 yr (rest frame) after its optical peak. We expect that, by this time, the ejecta have become optically thin for photons more energetic than ∼15 keV. No flux is detected at the position of the supernova down to F
10–30 keV = 9.0 × 10−14 erg cm−2 s−1, or an upper limit of 7.9 × 1041 erg s−1 at a distance of 271 Mpc. This constrains the fraction of bolometric luminosity from the putative spinning down magnetar to be f
X ≲ 36% in the 10–30 keV range in a conservative case, f
X ≲ 11% in an optimistic case.
The Armed Forces in Institutional and Functional Concept
Authors: Skoruša Leopold , Horák Ondřej , Vičar Radim , Zbořil Tomáš
Published: December 2022

The article deals with the interpretation of the term "armed forces" in the context of the current legal system of the Czech Republic. The authors propose to distinguish between the armed forces in the institutional concept and in the functional concept. The essence of the solution is the interpretation of Section 3(1) of the Armed Forces Act (No. 219/1999 Coll.) in the functional concept, i.e. in such a way that the armed forces are understood to include soldiers assigned to the Ministry of Defence, military schools, the Military Police and the Military Intelligence. Another solution could be to add a paragraph to the Armed Forces Act stating that "The provisions on members of the armed forces shall apply mutatis mutandis to soldiers on active service assigned to the Ministry of Defence, military schools, the Military Police and the Military Intelligence." The aim of the article is initiation professional discussions about the issue in question, as well as indications of directions as to how it would be appropriate to solve the matter.
Innovative view of the methodical process of facing disinformation
Authors: Havlík Martin
Published: December 2022

The article describes an innovative view of a possible methodical process of access and protection against disinformation. The ever-increasing digitization and use of cyberspace to disseminate all kinds of data and information provides users with an indisputable number of associated benefits associated with rapid access, distribution or sharing of current knowledge. However, this development trend also reciprocally generates a number of related threats that need to be faced. Our own resilience and effective tools against information campaigns and information actions of all relevant actors play the key role here. The critical thinking itself and the process mechanisms used to access information are the focus of overall resilience to this type of security threats. Thus, the methodical process can help a wide range of readers broaden their view of the complexity of the problem and partially minimize the associated security risks.
Identification of factors for the prevention and elimination of undesirable forms of impulsive behavior in the context of solving difficult situations under conditions of professional activities of military leadership students
Authors: Ullrich David , Milichovský František , Koleňáková Veronika , Čadová Lenka
Published: December 2022

The effective leadership and the effectiveness of a leader reflect, as the strongest factor, the degree of his transformational approach, which influences the objectively measured performance of the led group. The main goal of the pilot research study was to identify personality and psychophysiological factors that could be monitored in the prevention and elimination of undesirable forms of impulsive behavior in the context of solving difficult situations in real conditions for professional leadership students according to the Big Five theory. The chosen research design made it possible to effectively combine the advantages of a behavioral and personalized approach to the study of impulsivity. The results of the study carried out on the final sample of subjects N=63, aged 21 to 26 years (r=21.7 years; 34.9% women and 65.1% men) are currently being processed. However, it can already be stated that the degree of impulsivity in military leadership students is related to the level of conscientiousness.

The Path to Bucha: Organisational Practices of the Russian Army and Violence against Noncombatants
Authors: Kučera Tomáš
Published: December 2022

The Bucha massacre raises the question of whether the Russian army predisposes its soldiers to unlawful violence against civilians. This article assumes that regardless of superior orders, perpetrators of violence must overcome the psychological barriers developed during socialisation. The psychological mechanism of "moral disengagement" allows soldiers to kill in combat and act violently on civilians. The duty of the armed forces is not only to prepare soldiers to fight and kill but also to prevent illegal violence. The case of the Russian army demonstrates how formal activities to prevent moral disengagement and violations of the International Humanitarian Law (IHL) face insurmountable obstacles in the form of institutional culture and insufficient human capital.
In Vitro Activity of Single and Combined Antibiotics against Carbapenem Resistant Enterobacteriaceae Clinical Isolates in Relation to their Resistance Genes
Authors: El-Defrawy Inas , Aitta Aisha Abu , Fam Nevine , Khaled Manar , Madany Nadia , El Damarawy Mervat , Gamal Doaa , Alkholy Mohammed Amr
Published: December 2022

Background: Mortality due to infection with carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) is reported globally and carbapenemase production is the main mechanism of resistance in these isolates. The detection and treatment of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) is a major challenge in health care facilities.
Objectives: The aim of the current study was to evaluate the in-vitro effect of different single and combined antibiotic agents against CRE clinical isolates.
Methodology: Fifty CRE isolates were detected using disk diffusion test as a screening test. Species identification and antibiotic susceptibility testing was done using Vitek 2 system. Carbapenemase enzyme production was confirmed by Carba NP test. Multiplex PCR was done to detect carbapenem resistance genes. Antibiotics were tested in the form of single agents (colistin and tigecycline) and combined (tigecycline/ colistin, doripenem/ colistin and dual carbapenem therapy (ertapenem and doripenem) against CRE isolates using E-test method.
Results: Most of the CRE isolates were K. pneumoniae, 68%, followed by E. coli, 22%, S. marcescens, 4%, E. cloacae, 4% and C. freundii, 2%. CPE was confirmed in 46 isolates by multiplex PCR; blaNDM-like was the main carbapenem resistance gene in (84%) of the isolates, followed by blaOXA-48-like (6%) and blaKPC-like (2%). Carba NP test detected 90% of CPE isolates. Single use of colistin and tigecycline showed 100% sensitivity against all tested CRE isolates except in blaNDM-like (83%).  Combination of colistin/tigecycline showed synergetic activity in 18% of CRE that was correlated to their carbapenemase R genes showing a significant increase in blaOXA-48-like and blaKPC-like positive isolates (100%) compared to blaNDM-like (7%). Other combinations showed indifferent effect whereas antagonism was not detected in any of the tested combinations.
Conclusions: blaNDM-like is the main carbapenemase-producing gene detected among our CPE isolates followed by blaOXA-48-like. Colistin and tigecycline are still effective when used as single agents, and may offer effective treatment options when used in combination for CRE infections. Characterization of carbapenemases is crucial in determining treatment options. There is urgent demand for the development of novel therapeutic agents against NDM-producing CPE isolates.
Florida Keys Mosquito Control District mosquito trapping data between Vaca Key and Lower Matecumbe Key, 2018-2021
Authors: Murray Heidi
Published: December 2022

The Florida Keys Mosquito Control District (FKMCD) is an independent taxing district in Monroe County, Florida. The mission of FKMCD is to protect the community and visitors of the Florida Keys from mosquito-borne disease and prevent nuisance mosquitoes from impacting the quality of life of its citizens and the local economy. The State of Florida requires mosquito control programmes to provide recorded evidence of mosquito activity prior to pesticide application. Surveillance is an appropriate method to record the abundance and mosquito species present in an area to determine if adulticide applications are necessary. Mosquito surveillance traps have been set by FKMCD since 1998. Trapping is conducted throughout the District to document species composition and abundance. Mosquito surveillance is used for operational decisions for both nuisance mosquitoes and disease vectors.

This dataset includes previously unreported mosquito trapping results in Monroe County, Florida. This dataset includes trap results collected from CDC light traps and BG Sentinel traps set weekly on Vaca Key, Flamingo Island, Key Colony Beach, Fat Deer Key, Crawl Key, Long Point Key, Grassy Key, Long Key and Lower Matecumbe Key from 1 January 2018 through to 31 December 2021.

A new species of music frog, Nidirana guibeiensissp. nov., is described from northern Guangxi, China. Based on two mtDNA fragments analyzed, phylogenetic trees reveal that N. guibeiensissp. nov. is most closely related to N. leishanensis. However, the new species can be identified by conspicuous diagnostic morphological characteristics as well as bioacoustics. In contrast to the known Nidirana species, the advertisement calls of the new species can be divided into three types, calls with one, two, and three notes. In addition, the new species has nest construction behavior, which is inconsistent with N. leishanensis. Nidirana guibeiensissp. nov. occurs in paddy fields or still pools at 300–1300 m a.s.l.

The mechanical performance of the Ilizarov system is closely related to the biologic status of the fracture or osteotomy line. The aim of this study was to compare the mechanical performance of 2 different Ilizarov frame configurations. Two different frame models were applied to cow tibiae, 1 with 2 rings only, 1 proximal and another distal, vs the conventional 4 rings, 2 proximal and 2 distal. The 2 models were applied to both tibiae of the same animal to overcome variations between the animal's bones. The midpoint of the tibial bones was osteotomized, and the osteotomy was distracted for 2 cm. Six identical samples for each model were created, and each identical sample of each model was tested under axial compression. Mechanical testing was performed with a load cell of 20,000 N and a speed of 2 mm/min. Measurements were evaluated using load cell and goniometric grading; load deformation was calculated using load-deformation graphs. Our comparison showed that the 4-ring frame had 37.5% greater stiffness than the 2-ring frame under direct loading under larger loads (
P
<.01). A comparison between the 4- and 2-ring configurations demonstrated that the 4-ring frame had 7% greater stiffness than the 2-ring frame under direct loading under smaller loads (
P
>.05). An excellent outcome can be achieved by using a conventional 4-ring frame, but the use of the 2-ring frame remains an available option for fixation of fractures in low-weight patients. [

Li0.4La0.56TiO3 (LLTO) lithium-ion conducting solid electrolyte has been synthesized by aqueous sol-gel synthesis method. The free standing and alumina substrate supported thick films have been prepared from the obtained powder by tape casting. The films and bulk ceramics were studied by impedance spectroscopy in the frequency range from 10 Hz to 10 GHz. The equivalent circuit modelling was implemented in order to determine the electrical parameters of LLTO films and ceramics. The free standing LLTO films grain conductivity was found to be similar to the one of ceramic sample, while the grain boundary conductivity of the free standing film was slightly higher compared to LLTO ceramics.
Centering Students with Disabilities: An Accessible User Experience Study of a Library Research Guide
Authors: Campbell Lisa Bouffard , Kester Brittany
Published: December 2022

Library practitioners can use digital accessibility standards to inform and evaluate accessible design, but how can we ensure online learning objects, such as library research guides, are both accessible and usable for students with disabilities? This is the research question that drove our accessible user experience study. Six undergraduate students with diverse disabilities completed the study. While all participants found our guide to be usable, it was not fully accessible to them. We outline our methodology, including considerations for involving participants with disabilities, and discuss our findings and limitations, so that our readers can consider the use of accessible user experience testing in their work.

PAN-AMERICANISMO E A ESCRITA DA HISTÓRIA BRASILEIRA
Authors: Correa da Silva Goettems Gabriela
Published: December 2022

Este artigo se insere na área da História da Historiografia. É fruto de uma pesquisa de doutorado sobre as relações entre a escrita da História do Brasil e o pan-americanismo (1889-1933). Os objetivos deste texto são: 1) Contribuir para a compreensão do papel desempenhado pelo Instituto Histórico e Geográfico Brasileiro no que se refere à aproximação entre os diferentes países das Américas na chave pan-americana; 2) Analisar a trajetória da constituição do pan-americanismo em problema historiográfico no IHGB. Para tanto, serão abordados, em linhas gerais, os temas debatidos no I Congresso Internacional de História da América (1922) e na Assembleia de criação do Instituto Pan-Americano de Geografia e História (1932-1933). Além disso, também será realizado um exame sobre o processo de reescrita da biografia de Alexandre de Gusmão. As fontes para esta análise são, majoritariamente, as atas de sessão publicadas nos anais dos referidos eventos.
REUNIR DOCUMENTOS PARA ESCREVER A HISTÓRIA
Authors: Schell Deise Cristina
Published: December 2022

Pedro de Angelis foi um erudito italiano que chegou a Buenos Aires em 1827. Entre as décadas de 1830 e 1850, colecionou documentos e os publicou em edições impressas, produzindo assim uma série de conjuntos documentais. Este artigo analisa as motivações do erudito ao colecionar e reunir documentos. O estudo utiliza como fontes principais as correspondências e a produção de Pedro de Angelis. Os documentos que reuniu – como sua coleção pessoal e sua Colección – serviriam, em particular, para garantir que outros letrados escrevessem história no futuro.

IRMANDADES LEIGAS E SOCIABILIDADES
Authors: Briskievicz Danilo Arnaldo
Published: December 2022

A construção de um templo religioso para abrigar a Ordem Terceira do Carmo da Vila do Príncipe é o ponto de partida para este estudo sobre as devoções e sociabilidades serranas que expressam características comuns de muitos arraiais e vilas do Brasil colonial. Analisamos como a elite local composta pelos “homens bons” se organizaram para conseguir as terras, o apoio do Senado da Câmara para a edificação do templo e do rancho de tropas, responsável pelos rendimentos necessários para a manutenção das despesas da ordem leiga. Usamos a metodologia de pesquisa bibliográfica e de documentos de arquivos públicos, além de propor narrativas biográficas envolvendo a escravidão colonial. O resultado é uma narrativa sobre a criação da Ordem Terceira do Carmo serrana e os conflitos relacionados à sua atuação numa vila que passava por complexas mudanças relacionadas ao seu crescimento comercial centralidade mercantil regional.
“É SEMPRE INCOMPLETA A EDUCAÇÃO DE UM POVO, QUANDO IGNORA A HISTORIA E A GEOGRAPHIA DE SUA NAÇÃO”
Authors: Dantas Máximo Maria Leopoldina
Published: December 2022

Esse artigo visa analisar quais os interesses e objetivos em torno da fabricação do Atlas do Império do Brasil, produzido por Candido Mendes de Almeida em 1868. Até que ponto ele utilizou-se de um discurso cientificista, através do diálogo entre as disciplinas de História e Geografia para legitimar os seus desenhos e ajudar na consolidação da nação brasileira, ainda, quais as intenções de Candido Mendes ao dedicar o seu trabalho ao Colégio Pedro II. Para isso, analisamos o texto e os mapas que compõe o Atlas, bem como, periódicos e os Anais do Senado e Parlamento brasileiro, desenvolvendo uma compressão a respeito das relações sociais e jogos de poder que envolveram a fabricação desse tempo e espaço, tendo em vista que os mapas longe de serem neutros, traduzem a visão de determinados indivíduos acerca do espaço representado.
MEMÓRIAS DA INTOLERÂNCIA RELIGIOSA NO INTERIOR DA PARAÍBA
Authors: Firino Daniel da Silva , Cavalcanti Carlos André Macedo
Published: December 2022

A Igreja Adventista do Sétimo Dia instalou-se na fazenda Baixa Verde na então vila de Queimadas em 1938. Em 1940, o prédio, onde eram realizados os cultos, foi atacado por cerca de 300 católicos que o apedrejaram e espancaram o pastor Moyses S. Nigri. O evento foi relatado, no mesmo ano, na Revista Adventista por Jeronimo G. Garcia, que presenciou o ocorrido, e por H. O. Olson, presidente da Missão Nordeste. Nigri só descreve o ocorrido em 1960 e em 1964 na Revista Adventista e em sua biografia lançada em 2014. Este trabalho tem como objetivo analisar a biografia de Nigri, utilizando-se de uma perspectiva histórico cultural, para compreender os conflitos religiosos que ocorriam em uma parte da sociedade paraibana do início da década de 1940.
