Introduction. The article describes a 3D documentation and visualization technique. Goals. The study seeks to preserve and reconstruct key forms and types of Kazakh memorial architecture with the aid of visual archeology tools. Materials and methods. The work started with determination of morphological characteristics inherent to the objects under study — mudbrick mausoleums. In accordance with the latter, a three-dimensional visualization technique was selected. The photography scenarios have been developed following recommendations of the software developers. The paper provides detailed insights into all stages of creating three-dimensional models, including data collection, feature description of the equipment used, pre-shooting computational analysis, shooting proper, and data post-processing. Special attention is paid to the most important and crucial moment of the survey — shooting, which was performed from different angles each to have yielded a distinguished set of photographs. It is urgent to take a sufficient number of high-quality photographs from different angles. A number of photographs for each angle should be as high as possible — from 30–40 to several hundreds and thousands. Results. The work notes that 6–8 sets were made for each mausoleum. Documentation of one object only (taking into account additional and spare photographs) includes a total of 500–600 photographs. Extensive efforts were made to process the obtained data, the latter work be implemented in a specific order to result in three-dimensional models and visualization patterns of the examined mausoleums. Preservation of mudbrick steppe monuments in digital format is an urgent need because those are a vanishing type of late medieval memorial architecture dating back to ancient times. Digital 3D-models of collapsing mudbrick mausoleums shall always be invaluable for science as historical sources, part of the Kazakh national cultural heritage.

Introduction. The issues pertaining to records keeping and management in 19th-century Russia’s government agencies have been well studied. However, there are no fundamental scientific works covering the phenomena in Kalmykia. The paper analyzes activities by the Astrakhan Kalmyk Affairs Commission for the actual document flow procedures and types of documents to have resulted from the Commission’s work. The review procedure of a petition filed by landlord E. Ts. Kichikov and dealing with the bronze medal awarded to the Russian nobility and merchants in memory of the Patriotic War of 1812 — and the Kalmyk nobility’s relevance to the mentioned category — arouses particular interest. Goals. The article aims to introduce some archival documents contained in Collection И-2 ‘Kalmyk Affairs Commission’, examine the execution procedure for a document identified as ‘register’, and thus trace document review procedures in administrative bodies of prerevolutionary Russia and Kalmykia. Results. The insight into the composition of archival documents (by types) created during activities of the Astrakhan Kalmyk Affairs Commission makes it possible to study the actual records keeping and management procedures in one ethnic periphery of Russia, as well as to consider relevance of the Kalmyk nobility to the Russian one.

Introduction. The oral tradition has figured largely in the literature of Mongols since ancient times. This is due to the nomadic way of life resulting in that sparse population gets scattered across vast territories forced to exchange news and knowledge by word of mouth. Such intensive functioning of the oral text transmission form can be witnessed even nowadays. Goals. The paper aims at introducing some data on ‘oral histories’ contained in Ts. Damdinsüren’s diaries into scientific circulation. Results. The tradition of using oral narratives in the functional sphere, in particular, to preserve and transmit historical facts — i.e. to somewhat ‘document’ the past — has given rise to such genres as ‘oral history’ (aman tuuh), ‘oral memoires’ (huuch yaria), and ‘folkloric accounts’ (yaria) that have become very popular in recent decades. And it is Academician Ts. Damdinsüren that can be viewed as initiator of this genre in Mongolian literature. The diaries of Ts. Damdinsüren dated from 1956 to 1986 contain materials used by him in his publications of ‘oral histories’. The latter can be somewhat provisionally classified into a few categories. First of all, it is evident enough that Ts. Damdinsüren was interested in funny stories, amusements, and anecdotes. Furthermore, he had been collecting narratives about supernatural entities for many years. The theme aroused the academician’s interest as manifested mythopoeia of the Mongols and as embodied living mythology of the people rather than as some mere object of curiosity, neither was he ever that enthusiastic about insights into esoteric practices of Mongolian Buddhist priests. The notebooks also contain quite a number of texts dealing with the Mongolian Revolution and the dramatic 1930s to have witnessed harsh repressions. The latter coupled with arrangements directed against the old culture did capture the scholar’s attention. The recorded ‘oral histories’ were articulating inconvenient and sometimes even hostile data for authorities on topics that remained banned up to the 1990s. So, the ‘oral histories’ not only introduce new historical and cultural facts, opinions of commoners on certain events, but also narrate about Mongolian household life of the past, peculiarities of ethnic worldviews and attitudes.

Introduction. Investigations of sources written in Old Kalmyk Clear Script (todo biciq) (17th–20th centuries) as part of academic Mongolian studies have been continuous for more than 150 years. However, in modern Kalmyk studies there can hardly be found any generalizing works on Kalmyk historical grammar. Besides, there is still a problem of digitizing all Clear Script texts (including lexicographical works) to form a corresponding database. Meanwhile, the study of such sources shall make it possible to describe the process of development — in a diachronic aspect — of the Kalmyk (Oirat) language which has been isolated from other Mongolic languages in differing ethnic and cultural environments of European Russia. Goals. The paper aims to describe some preliminary results dealing with the system of Old Kalmyk vowels and received through the analysis of Old Kalmyk bilingual dictionaries conducted on the Lingvodoc linguistic platform. Materials. The study examines five dictionaries of Old Kalmyk, namely: an anonymous 18th-century Russian-Kalmyk dictionary, dictionaries by V. Diligensky, P. Smirnov, N. Lvovsky, and A. Pozdneev. Results. The Lingvodoc-based insight into the Old Kalmyk vowel system throughout the five examined dictionaries has revealed some vowel concordances, such as u (ü) / o (ö), e / i — and analogues of the latter have also been found in Turkic languages. The u > o transition is traced in N. Lvovsky’s dictionary which suggests the registered (source) dialect involved can be associated with the modern Dorbet one characterized by the same process. The linguistic platform and its tools have been instrumental in identifying transitions similar to the ones observed in the examined dictionaries — in Kazakh, Bashkir, and Tatar languages together referred to as Kipchak Turkic ones. Moreover, our analysis of techniques once employed in the dictionaries to transcribe long vowels of Old Kalmyk has actualized and clarified some conclusions of D. Pavlov who had also investigated the issue.

Introduction. A number with peculiar symbolism is closely associated with the shaping of a certain linguistic worldview, and can articulate essentials of material and spiritual culture. However, official Kalmyk texts have not yet been examined for numeric symbolism. Official narratives usually tend to desacralize numbers, the latter to function only as denoters of quantities and measures. Still, such letters may contain tokens involving numbers to be characterized as sacred and able to preserve elements of symbolic semantics in definite contexts. Goals. The article aims at revealing peculiarities of number as ethnolinguistic component in Khan Ayuka’s letters, and comparing 17th–18th century Kalmyk-language texts to synchronic Russian translations. Materials and methods. The paper analyzes letters of the Kalmyk Khan Ayuka housed at the Russian State Archive of Ancient Acts and the National Archive of Kalmykia. Both synchronic and diachronic Kalmyk-to-Russian translations of 18th-century letters are investigated for culture-specific vocabulary translation strategies. The employed research methods include the descriptive, comparative ones, and that of contextual analysis. Results and conclusions. 18th-century official Kalmyk letters are abundant in numbers, the latter to be divided into ones that preserve semantic elements of sacrality — and desacralized ones that convey quantitative meanings only. Those are the numbers one, three, and four that retain symbolic semantics in materials analyzed. The number one conveys meanings of insignificance and extremely small quantity — virtually equal to ‘naught’ and ‘absence’. The number three retains its traditional messages to have been traced in etiquette formulas mentioning the Three Jewels of Buddhism. Synchronic translations articulate the deep cultural meanings of three without the number as such — with tools and concepts of a different religious tradition. Both in the original and translated texts, the number four maintains its spatial semantics in etiquette formulas mentioning the four cardinal directions — to convey ideas of dividing the world into ours and theirs, the latter to exist beyond the addresser’s locality characterized by four-side structure oriented towards the center.

Introduction. The article deals with lexical means of expressing the category of locativity, the latter to serve a basic concept of space. Descriptions of locative parts of speech in typological works analyzing different languages make it possible to consider lexical semantic groups of locative nouns in Mongolian, Buryat, Oirat and Kalmyk. Goals. So, the study aims at describing lexical semantic groups of locative nouns in the mentioned Mongolic languages. Materials. The work examines various dictionaries of the Mongolic languages, literary and journalistic texts included into the available corpora of the languages. Results. Our insights show that Mongolic nouns may serve as various tools to express locativity meanings. The paper distinguishes a total of four key lexical semantic groups of the considered nouns: 1) types of surface, cardinal points, types of landscape; 2) names of countries, regions, cities, streets, squares; 3) structures, buildings, dwellings; 4) transport. In Mongolic languages, the analyzed vocabulary is represented by a wide range of lexemes. Different use patterns, absence or presence of certain lexemes in the languages under consideration has been noted. Conclusions. Analysis of the identified lexical semantic groups of locative nouns shows a variety of meanings in different combinations, as well as peculiarities of their use in related Mongolic languages. Nouns employed to refer to parts of the world, types of landscape, earth’s surface, countries and cities constitute quite a diverse layer of vocabulary too.

Introduction. The economic development of Eastern Persian provinces Kerman and Sistan — and the latter’s role in Russian-British economic rivalry — throughout the late 19th and early 20th centuries remains somewhat understudied in both Russian and foreign historiographies. Goals. The article attempts an analysis of key trends in the development of Sistan and Kerman at the turn of the 20th century and their significance in foreign economic activities of both Great Britain and Russia. Materials and methods. The paper investigates reports by Russian diplomats to have headed Consulates to Kerman and Sistan. The employed research methods are the historical/genetic, historical/comparative, and historical/typological ones. Results. Russian diplomats paid great attention to peculiarities of Kerman and Sistan’s development, with due regard of their ethnic compositions, climatic conditions, and economic potentials. The article emphasizes that for a long time foreign trade of Kerman and Sistan was dominated by the British Empire which used, first of all, the potential and experience gained by India in organizing trade with Persia. The analysis of the Russian diplomatic reports shows since the late 19th century Russia — driven by its own foreign economic ambitions in Eastern Persia — was showing great interest in these provinces. St. Petersburg was aware of the impossibility of maintaining political dominance in Persia without strengthening its economic presence in the country, including in regions traditionally dominated by the British Empire. This initiative of St. Petersburg caused great concern in London. Conclusions. In the late 19th – early 20th centuries, Russia succeeded in challenging the positions of the British Empire in Sistan and Kerman markets, even in the segment of textile exports traditionally dominated by Great Britain. At the same time, when it comes to describe the obvious achievements of Russia in Persia’s eastern provinces it should be noted that Russian entrepreneurs showed little interest in developing trade with Kerman and Sistan. Therefore, most foreign economic operations were to be implemented with the active participation of Russian diplomatic missions. However, on the eve of WWI Russia’s entrepreneurs did take an initiative of their own, and thus paved further trade success in Sistan and Kerman.

Goals. The article seeks to reveal specifics of historical science’s institutionalization in the Buryat-Mongol ASSR throughout the 1920s and 1930s. It analyzes the conditions to have accompanied the development of historical science in the prerevolutionary era, peculiarities in the shaping of new organizational forms for historical research in the Republic (scientific institution, scientific society, museums and archives), and a corresponding educational infrastructure. Much attention is paid to the analysis of history and ethnography research endeavors of scientific societies (Dorzhi Banzarov Buryat-Mongol Society, Troitskosavsk-Kyakhta Branch of the Russian Geographical Society) and the first scientific institution of the Republic to have evolved from Buryat-Mongol Scientific Committee into the State Institute of Language, Literature and Cultural History during the mentioned period. Materials and methods. The paper examines unpublished documents stored at the Center of Oriental Manuscripts and Xylographs (Institute for Mongolian, Buddhist and Tibetan Studies SB RAS), Scientific Archive of the Buryat Scientific Center (SB RAS), and the State Archive of Buryatia. The principles of historicism and systemacity employed make it possible to reconstruct the process of historical science’s institutionalization in the young Buryat-Mongol autonomy, the latter having been determined by objectives of scientific, cultural, social, economic and political development of the Soviet state. This has yielded a balanced approach aimed to characterize the ideological predicaments faced by the humanities in earliest decades of the BMASSR. Results. The first post-October decade witnessed the shaping of a conceptually new paradigm of historical science based on Marxist-Leninist ideologies — paralleled by the formation of Buryat-Mongolia’s infrastructure of historical science represented by institutions of science and education, public organizations and archives. In methodological terms, the very historical science was being developed ‘under the flag of local history’ with the typically insufficient detailing and generalizing nature of historical problem statements. The first 1926 meeting on ethnic culture and the 1934 meeting on controversial issues of Buryat-Mongolia’s history did articulate consolidated ideas pertaining to development directions and objectives for historical science in the Republic. Despite the ideological extremities had had most negative impacts on human resources and potentials of regional historical science, by the late 1930s there were a source base and theoretical/methodological tools generally compliant with Marxist-Leninist ideologies. All that helped P. Khaptaev, A. Okladnikov, F. Kudryavtsev and many others prepare generalized works on the history of Buryatia that have become classics of Russian historiography.

Published: January 2023

Aim:
Durability of aortic valve replacement is becoming increasingly important. Aortic bioprostheses with RESILIA tissue have demonstrated outstanding outcomes thus far, but only in single-arm studies.
Methods:
We compared structural valve deterioration (SVD)-related hemodynamic valve deterioration (HVD) of grade ≥2 of RESILIA tissue valves from the COMMENCE trial (n = 689) to those from the PARTNER 2A contemporary AVR arm (n = 936) based upon annual core laboratory echocardiograms through 5 years of follow-up.
Results:
SVD-related HVD in the COMMENCE and PARTNER 2A cohorts were 1.8 versus 3.5%, respectively (one-sided 95% lower-bound hazard ratio of 0.92; p = 0.07). In propensity-matched cohorts (n = 239), these outcomes were 1.0 versus 4.8%, respectively (one-sided 95% lower-bound hazard ratio of 1.15; p = 0.03).
Conclusion:
RESILIA tissue-based AVR exhibited reduced SVD-related HVD compared with a contemporary AVR cohort devoid of RESILIA tissue.

Exile, Flight and Loss of Homeland: Margarete von Pusirewsky – A Baltic German Life Lost Between War and Resettlement
Authors:   University of Latvia, Wezel Katja
Published: January 2023

When the majority of Baltic Germans left Latvia in the fall of 1939, Margarete von Pusirewsky (1872–1948) stayed behind in her home town Riga. Together with her family – her mother Ludmilla Goegginger (Gēgingers) and her sister Marta Busz, as well as her two daughters and a son, they decided not to follow the mass exodus of Germans. In her life, Margarete von Pusirewsky had already experienced several episodes of self-imposed exile from her hometown and Baltic Heimat, firstly, as the wife of a military doctor post ed to different places around the Russian Empire, and secondly, during the First World War, when she and her family had fled to Helsinki. After these longer periods spent in other parts of the Russian Empire, she always returned to Riga. Even when she left Riga for the last time in 1944 to flee the approaching Red Army, she hoped to be able to return soon. Based on primary sources, in particular the memoirs of Margarete von Pusirewsky, this paper discusses the connectedness with one’s home town, the experience of exile, the longing for “being home” again during and after episodes of exile and in the context of flight, (forced) resettlement, and deportation.

Published: January 2023

The work by Belarusian historians Maksim Koroliov and Andrei Gerberg, which it was impossible to publish in Belarus due to the political situation and was therefore published in Latvia, addresses an essential issue in the history of both Belarus and Latvia: the history of the ethnic Latvian community in Belarus in the interwar period and the mass terror against it in the second half of the 1930s. The book focuses on the period of implementation of the so-called “Latvian Operation”, which was launched in December 1937 and entailed the repression of thousands of people throughout the USSR, based only on the criteria of their ethnic background. The book is well-written, it expertly tackles the abovementioned issue, which practically has not been studied yet, skilfully using the accessible sources stored in Belarusian and Russian archives as well as other groups of sources. An important annex of the book presents systematised information about 900 re-pressed ethnic Latvian residents of Belarus.

Carlos V y la república cristiana en Aragón. Del monasterio de Santa Engracia a la Lonja de Zaragoza y a la de Tarazona
Authors: Gómez Urdáñez Carmen
Published: January 2023

El libro incorpora nuevos y significativos casos al elenco conocido de conjuntos figurativos alusivos a la monarquía de Carlos V en el ámbito aragonés. Su reconocimiento y la lectura de su mensaje iconográfico les otorgan un valor inesperado, no solo intrínseco o de una trascendencia local o regional, sino general: en ellos se encuentra expresa la esencia de la concepción política de la relación entre el monarca y la república en vigor durante el reinado del emperador. El grupo de la cripta del monasterio de Santa Engracia de Zaragoza, atribuido al gran escultor Damián Forment, constituye el punto de partida, complejo y multiforme, pero claro en su génesis y significado; para llegar a las posteriores fachadas de la Lonja de la misma ciudad, con sus tondos de ciudadanos —y ciudadanas— presididos por la familia imperial, y de la renombrada Lonja-Ayuntamiento de Tarazona (Zaragoza), que es reinterpretada. Junto al patio de la casa de Zaporta y la portada de la casa del virrey conde Morata, ambas en Zaragoza, y la escalera del palacio arzobispal de Tarazona, estas nuevas obras desveladas forman un conjunto simbólico sobre Carlos V y el ejercicio de su gobierno de la máxima representatividad, explicable por la proximidad de sus promotores al monarca y a la corte.

Objective

To investigate the association between accelerometer-derived physical activity energy expenditure (PAEE) and incident type 2 diabetes (T2D) in a cohort of middle-aged adults and within subgroups.

Research Design and Methods

Data were from 90,096 UK Biobank participants without prevalent diabetes (mean age 62 years, 57% women) who wore a wrist accelerometer for 7 days. PAEE was derived from wrist acceleration using a population-specific method validated against doubly-labelled water. Logistic regressions were used to assess associations between PAEE, its underlying intensity, and incident T2D, ascertained using hospital episode and mortality data up to November 2020. Models were progressively adjusted for demographic, lifestyle factors, and body mass index (BMI). 

Results

The association between PAEE and T2D was approximately linear (n=2018 events). We observed 19% (95% confidence interval 17-21%) lower odds of T2D per 5 kJ.kg-1.d-1 in PAEE without adjustment for BMI, and 11% (9-13%) with BMI adjustment. The association was stronger in men than women, and weaker in those with obesity and higher genetic susceptibility to obesity. There was no evidence of effect modification by genetic susceptibility to T2D or insulin resistance. For a given level of PAEE, odds of T2D were lower amongst those engaging in more moderate-to-vigorous activity.

Conclusions

There was a strong linear relationship between PAEE and incident T2D. A difference in PAEE equivalent to an additional daily 20-minute brisk walk was associated with 19% lower odds of T2D. The association was broadly similar across population subgroups, supporting physical activity for diabetes prevention in the whole population.  
Dempet statsfeminist? Nasjonale tradisjoner og globale utviklingstrekk i Søreides periode som utenriksminister

Published: January 2023

Utnevnelsen av Ine Eriksen Søreide i 2017 var et historisk første: Norges første kvinnelige utenriksminister. For merkevaren Norge var dette viktig: Det viste likestilling i praksis, ikke bare som gode intensjoner. I norsk utenrikspolitikk har fredsengasjementet derimot hatt forrang. Det kom også fram under sikkerhetsrådskampanjen i 2018 ledet av Søreide, som ellers i hennes periode som norsk utenriksminister. Faktisk kom høyrepolitikeren i liten grad til å avvike fra en velkjent linje i utenrikspolitikken ved å fremstå som en forsiktig statsfeminist. I tråd med denne linjen er Norge likestillingslandet når det tjener landets omdømme og internasjonale betydning, ellers er Norge fredsnasjonen først og fremst.
Abstract in EnglishCautious State Feminist? National Traditions and Global Developments During Søreide’s Term as Minister of Foreign AffairsThe appointment of Ine Eriksen Søreide in 2017 was a historic first: Norway’s first female foreign minister. In terms of nation branding this was a significant change for Norway; it demonstrated gender equality in foreign affairs as a form of practice and not just as good intentions. Traditionally, the Norwegian peace engagement has overridden other priorities for Norwegian foreign policy. This could also be seen in the campaign to win the election for a non-permanent seat in the UN Security Council in 2018, which was led by Søreide as foreign minister. In fact, the conservative politician did little to deviate from established priorities in foreign policy and appeared as a cautious state feminist. By extension, Norway is a country which prioritizes gender equality when it serves the country’s reputation and international importance, otherwise Norway is first and foremost a peace nation.
Kina-politikken i Søreides periode som utenriksminister: kjente spor og nye konfliktlinjer
Authors: Gåsemyr Hans Jørgen
Published: January 2023

Perioden med Ine Eriksen Søreide som utenriksminister (2017–2021) gir et spennende vindu inn i utviklingen for norsk Kina-politikk. Etter seks år med frys i de politiske relasjonene mellom Norge og Kina, fikk Søreide en stor oppgave med å normalisere forholdet og navigere det inn i en tid preget av skarpere konflikter. I denne artikkelen søker vi svar på to sentrale spørsmål: Hvordan utviklet Kina-politikken seg i disse årene, og hva forklarer dreiningen mot mer sikkerhets- og verdiorienterte trekk i andre del av ministerperioden? Vi kombinerer teorier og forklaringer som vektlegger institusjonell stabilitet, trinnvis politikkendring og strukturell, internasjonal påvirkning.
Abstract in EnglishThe China Policy During Søreide’s Tenure as Foreign Minister (2017–2021): Familiar Tracks and New Conflict LinesThe period with Ine Eriksen Søreide serving as foreign minister (2017–2021) provides an exciting window into the development of Norwegian China-policies. After a six-year freeze in the political relations between Norway and China, Søreide took on the task of normalizing the relationship and navigating it into a time characterized by sharpened conflicts. In this article, we seek answers to two central questions: how did the China-policies evolve during these years, and what explains the turn towards more security- and value-oriented measures in the second half of the period? We combine theories and explanations emphasizing the role of institutional stability, stepwise political change, and structural, international influence.

Published: January 2023

Optimization of welding parameters is essential on austenitic stainless steel for industrial applications since they declare the best parameters compared with prioritized constraints. However, available optimization methods, such as the Taguchi method, widely used in this research domain, are weak. Their results are merely comparative and fail to particularly show the specific factor that displays the highest performance in the process. In this paper, the aim is specifically to position the parameters in order of importance and present them in a grey wolf optimization framework. The ultimate tensile strength and yield strength were optimized, and the optimization was conducted using the C++ programming code. Literature data were analyzed for austenitic stainless steel under un-notched/smooth and notched specimen conditions. Empirical models were developed for the ultimate tensile strength and yield strength, among other principal criteria of the material. For the ultimate tensile strength, the best value was obtained at the 100th iteration as 640.75. For the yield strength, the best value of 394.98 was obtained after 100 iterations. A value of 31.07 for the PE was obtained. These results are for the unnotched specimens. However, the PE, NTS, and yield strength values for the notched specimens are 16.32, 780.12, and 494.46, respectively. Based on the findings of this study and compared with other optimization methods, the optimal parameters and outputs predicted using the grey wolf optimization approach were found to produce reliable results. This shows that the grey wolf optimization approach is a good option for predicting the optimal parameters of the tungsten arc welding process by utilizing austenitic stainless steel. The usefulness of this research effort is to help process engineers to implement robust and effective cost decisions in the production of materials based on austenitic stainless steel.

Встановлено широкий клас органічних речовин, введення яких у вигляді невеликих добавок (до 10 %) у склад піротехнічних сумішей на основі порошків металевих пальних та окиснювачів приводить до зменшення швидкості та підвищення стійкості процесу їх горіння до зовнішніх впливів (підвищені температури нагріву, зовнішні тиски) для різних діапазонів зміни технологічних параметрів сумішей (співвідношення та дисперсності компонентів, коефіцієнта ущільнення). Зі зменшенням коефіцієнта надлишку окиснювача у суміші залежність швидкості горіння від величини добавки підсилюється, незалежно від її дисперсності. Добавки стеарину та тіоколу у суміші Al + NaNO3 та Zr + NaNO3, навпаки, призводять до збільшення швидкості горіння цих сумішей, що обумовлено підвищенням реакційної здатності Al та Zr у присутності газоподібних продуктів розкладання стеарину та тіоколу при підвищених температурах нагріву, які сприяють різкому зниженню температури займання частинок металевих пальних та призводять до зниження стійкості процесу розвитку горіння сумішей, особливо в умовах підвищених зовнішніх тисків (збільшення показника в законі горіння зі зростанням величини добавки).
