Epistemologias do sul e educação intercultural
Authors: Pires Correia SOARES Khellen Cristina , GRANDO Beleni Salete , STROHER Jonathan
Published: October 2021

Tecemos contribuições à temática Direitos Humanos e Interculturalidade em tempos de pandemia, dialogando com os estudiosos da decolonialidade e interculturalidade crítica. A leitura da realidade pautada na pesquisa-ação traz as falas de participantes da formação contínua Ikuia-Pá: história e cultura bororo na perspectiva da educação intercultural na primeira infância. Neste contexto formativo nasce o “grupo-pesquisador” e a sistematização da metodologia “formação-ação-intercultural” que pretende descolonizar fundamentando-se em epistemologias do Sul em contraposição à colonialidade do saber/conhecimento. Conclui-se que as formações de professores demandam outras proposições teóricas que possam criar novas pedagógicas capazes de promover a educação intercultural crítica na escola.

El Nobel germinal: las columnas iniciales de García Márquez
Authors: Villegas-Botero Adriana
Published: October 2021

Gabriel García Márquez publicó sus 10 primeras columnas periodísticas en El Universal de Cartagena, entre el 21 de mayo y el 2 de junio de 1948. A continuación, se presenta un análisis textual de dichas piezas cortas, para identificar en ellas microelementos alusivos a lo animal y lo femenino. En la frecuencia con la que García Márquez alude al universo femenino y animal, y en los recursos narrativos que emplea para hacerlo, el lector encuentra los primeros vestigios del desarrollo de la obra posterior del Nobel.
La forma de la contingencia: teoría política de lo particular
Authors: DeTar Matthew
Published: October 2021

Los juicios políticos se hacen en la incertidumbre y con información incompleta; la persuasión ocurre en el ámbito de la probabilidad, y la sedimentación de estos juicios y decisiones produce una historia que pudo haber sido diferente. Aunque la contingencia es el supuesto de base de la teoría política, los teóricos en este campo no siempre quieren decir lo mismo cuando utilizan este concepto. Este artículo amplía la distinción entre dos formas de contingencia, opera sobre la distinción de Gaonkar (2001) entre contingencia interna y externa. La contingencia tiene dos posibles significados actualmente: 1) la contingencia hace referencia a fenómenos históricos/culturales/sociales del pasado que se han sedimentado, o 2) la contingencia hace referencia a características propias de la toma de decisiones y de la acción humana en el presente o en el futuro. La contingencia describe no solo el ámbito de la política, sino que también se convierte en un concepto político-retórico en sí mismo. Al centrarse en estos dos sentidos, este artículo demuestra cómo el tema no solo se focaliza en los detalles de una situación de esta naturaleza, sino que transforma nuestra comprensión sobre qué es una situación contingente.
El paisaje de los sabores. Un recorrido por las cocinas tradicionales del Paisaje Cultural Cafetero de los municipios de Manizales y Aránzazu, a través de una instalación sonora y realidad aumentada
Authors: Reyes Arias Diana Milena
Published: October 2021

El paisaje de los sabores es un proyecto de investigación-creación que busca traer a los oídos citadinos los paisajes sonoros (soundscapes) de las cocinas tradicionales del Municipio de Manizales y Aránzazu que hacen parte del Paisaje Cultural Cafetero (PCC). Este proyecto tiene como propósito general construir una obra procesual a partir de paisajes sonoros recreados de las prácticas culinarias tradicionales en fincas cafeteras de los municipios de Manizales y Aránzazu dentro del PCC. Para lograrlo, se recolectaron y seleccionaron -a través de registros sonoros- las marcas (soundmark) de cada cocina tradicional. El resultado será una instalación sonora con realidad aumentada que permita traer, no solo los paisajes sonoros en un diseño de escucha, sino que permita también que quien interactúe viaje a las cuatro cocinas mediante la técnica de realidad aumentada.

La Cueva de Alfredo Montero. Una narrativa de la deshumanización
Authors: Cano Isabela , Mejía Paulina
Published: October 2021

Como objeto de reflexión, en este artículo se aborda la película La cueva dentro del subgénero Metraje Encontrado. Se hace un paralelismo con la alegoría de la caverna de Platón a partir de un relato centrado en la inhumanidad y la prevalencia de instintos básicos. Por medio de la cámara subjetiva y las tomas inestables se aborda la historia de un grupo de jóvenes que vacacionan y desaparecen al interior de una cueva
Aproximación a La peste de Camus desde la propuesta semiótica de Joseph Courtés
Authors: Salgado Acosta Libia , Buitrago Osorio Luis Armando
Published: October 2021

Este artículo pretende mostrar la propuesta semiótica de Joseph Courtés, aplicada a la obra litera- ria La Peste de Albert Camus. Para alcanzar este objetivo nos centraremos, principalmente, en los tres niveles de análisis propuestos por Courtés en su obra Análisis semiótico del discurso, el nivel figurativo, el nivel temático y el nivel axiológico, que permiten que nos aproximemos a la obra desde tres enfoques; primero, a la representación figurativa que tenemos del fenómeno- la peste-, bien sea desde lo icónico o desde lo abstracto; segundo, a lo temático que encierra la propuesta general del autor y que se puede traducir, en el caso de La Peste, en la pandemia ocurrida en Oran, escenario físico y sociocultural donde se desarrolló la historia; tercero, a lo axiológico que enfrenta al lector a los juicios de valor que asume ante las situaciones vividas por los personajes, y que permite una confrontación entre sus propios principios de lector con los valores morales de los habitantes de Orán, que se van transformando a medida que avanza la enfermedad. Parece como si fuera necesaria una situación extrema para que consideremos la impor- tancia de pararnos a reflexionar, a mirar la vida con otros ojos, a enfrentarnos a ella con la sensibilidad de ayudarnos los unos a los otros.
Secondary succession of woody plants following sand mining in the Soesdyke-Linden area, Guyana: A Chronosequence study
Authors: Sherilyn Jeanette Inniss
Published: October 2021

Sandy soils comprise a large proportion of low productivity areas of Guyana on the Soesdyke-Linden Highway, where there is ecological disturbance and evidence of secondary succession after sand mining activities. This study investigated secondary succession of woody plants on abandoned sand mining locations. Secondary succession was studied inferentially by comparing sites in a homogeneous zone that was abandoned at different times post disturbance due to sand mining. Species diversity and community composition at five (5) sites which included an undisturbed area and areas at 3, 5, 10, and 15 years after the disturbance of sand mining were studied. Fifteen 10m x 10m plots were sampled for woody plants with a DBH of more than 2.5cm, and 1m x 1m sub-plots were randomly selected and sampled for seedlings with a DBH less than 2.5cm. A total of 241 plants were recorded, encompassing 22 species across 16 Families. Tapiria marchandii of the family Anacardiaceae dominated the chronosequences of 5, 10, and 15 years and recorded the highest Importance Value Index (IVI) of 112.88, 154.51, and 215.42, respectively. Dimorphandra conjugata of the family Fabaceae also adapted well to conditions post sand mining in the latter chronosequences of 10 and 15 years with IVIs of 54.17 and 38.83, respectively. The youngest site of three years exhibited the highest species diversity post the disturbance of sand mining; however, the undisturbed site possessed the highest overall species diversity. Species diversity of chronosequences decreased with age as competition for limited resources increased and the dominant species proliferated.
Problem-Thematic Singularity of R. Mukhamadiev’s Short Stories
Authors: Zakirzyanov Alfat Magsumzyanovich , Gabidullina Farida Imamutdinovna
Published: October 2021

The study aims to identify the problem-thematic singularity of R. Mukhamadiev’s short stories. The paper is novel in that it is the first to analyse R. Mukhamadiev’s short stories in detail from the perspective of originality of themes and problems, the author’s interpretation of the raised problems of modern life, ways of creating images, as well as singularity of the world depicted. The results of the study and analysis have shown that, firstly, R. Mukhamadiev’s short stories mainly reflect philosophical, publicistic and critical principles; secondly, peculiarities of the writer’s creative work are characterised by the masterful use of linguistic and stylistic means of depiction, for instance, such as metaphoricity, simile, binarity and aphoristicity, etc., as well as by the author’s explicit standpoint in assessing both current events and unique images.
Implementasi Kebijakan Penataan Minimarket di Kabupaten Sidoarjo
Authors: Ardhana Rhea , Hertati Diana
Published: October 2021

Pertumbuhan jumlah minimarket di Kabupaten Sidoarjo terus meningkat dari tahun ke tahun, hingga tahun 2019 tercatat ada 398 minimarket yang berdiri di Kabupaten Sidoarjo. Selain memberikan investasi yang tinggi kepada daerah, bertambahnya jumlah kegiatan perdagangan di sektor minimarket di Kabupaten Sidoarjo tentunya juga memberikan dampak yang buruk bagi masyarakat yang menjalankan UMKM dan Pasar Rakyat. Pemerintah Kabupaten Sidoarjo telah mengeluarkan sebuah kebijakan melalui Peraturan Daerah Kabupaten Sidoarjo No 10 Tahun 2019 yang mengatur tentang Penataan Toko Swalayan di Kabupaten Sidoarjo. Peraturan Daerah ini dibuat untuk meningkatkan pembinaan dan penataan usaha minimarket yang semakin banyak berkembang dan juga sebagai salah satu upaya perlindungan terhadap keberadaan pasar tradisional dan Usaha Mikro, Kecil dan Menengah. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui, mendeskripsikan, dan menganalisis implementasi Kebijakan Penataan Minimarket di Kabupaten Sidoarjo. Teori yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini yaitu dengan menggunakan model implementasi kebijakan Edward III. Metode penelitian yang digunakan kualitatif dengan pendekatan deskriptif bertujuan untuk mengungkapkan kejadian atau fakta, fenomena, variable, dan keadaan yang terjadi pada saat penelitian berlangsung dengan menyuguhkan apa yang sebenarnya terjadi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan pelaksanaan Peraturan Daerah tersebut sudah terimplementasikan namun belum optimal. Masih banyaknya permasalahan dalam pelaksanaan Peraturan Daerah tersebut diantaranya masih adanya pelanggaran-pelanggaran yang terjadi dan tidak sesuai dengan Perda. Kurangnya sumber daya staf yang ada di Bidang Perdagangan Disperindag Kabupaten Sidoarjo sehingga kurang adanya pengaawasan terhadap pelanggaran yang terjadi, hal tersebut juga menjadi penghambat implementasi kebijakan ini.
Air pollution: cardiovascular and other negative effects on pregnancy: a narrative review
Authors: Eeden Leen Van den , Leysens Greet , Mannaerts Dominique , Jacquemyn Yves
Published: October 2021

Objectives: The main goal of this narrative review is to summarize the data on the relationship between air pollution and pregnancy outcome. Mechanism: The authors conducted a critical but concise review on published studies relating to particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM10), carbon monoxide, ozone and nitrogen oxide versus pregnancy outcome. Findings in brief: (Over) exposure to particulate matter is associated with a negative outcome on fertility and early pregnancy loss. There is an increased risk of congenital birth anomalies, birth weight and pregnancy-induced hypertensive disorders with exposure on PM2.5. Exposure to ozone and NO2 decreases the chance of live birth rate and increases the risk of congenital heart diseases, preterm birth and hypertensive disorders. Conclusions: Air pollution is traditionally correlated with adverse health effects. In the current review, we concisely but critically compile the most relevant studies on pregnancy-related effects. Particulate matter, carbon monoxide, ozone, and nitrogen dioxide are the key air pollutants. Exposure to these pollutants has been associated with cardiovascular disease, respiratory disease, and negative effects on pregnancy.
The effects of Chinese herbal medicine on the pregnancy outcomes of infertile women with polycystic ovary syndrome undergoing in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Authors: Liu Chang , Dai Minchen , Zhao Lei , Wang Fangfang
Published: October 2021

Background: At present, Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) has already been widely used as an important adjuvant treatment for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients undergoing in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET). This systematic review and meta-analysis were designed to evaluate the effects of CHM on the pregnancy outcomes of infertile women with PCOS undergoing IVF-ET. Methods: We searched seven electronic databases systematically for published articles to January 2021. All randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing CHM with blank or placebo for infertile PCOS patients undergoing IVF-ET were included. The measures of treatment effect were the pooled odds ratios (OR) of the clinical pregnancy rate, the abortion rate and the ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) incidence. Results: This meta-analysis included 10 studies involving 663 patients comparing CHM with blank or placebo for infertile PCOS patients undergoing IVF-ET. The pooled data showed that CHM could improve the clinical pregnancy rate (OR = 2.41, 95% CI: 1.73–3.35, p < 0.01) and reduce the OHSS incidence (OR = 0.31, 95% CI: 0.18–0.55, p < 0.01) of infertile PCOS patients with IVF-ET treatment. No significant difference in the abortion rate was found between the CHM and control groups (OR = 0.64, 95% CI: 0.23–1.81, p = 0.40). Discussion: CHM can be used as an auxiliary treatment for infertile PCOS patients undergoing IVF-ET.

Published: October 2021

Background: The aim of our study was to evaluate the accuracy of Three Dimensional Tomographic Ultrasound Imaging (3D-TUI) and 3D power Doppler using Alalfy simple criteria in the diagnosis of placenta previa and PAS (Placenta accrete spectrum) with differentiation of placenta previa (non-adherent placenta) from PAS disorders and determination of its subtypes (Accreta, increta, and percreta). Methods: A prospective observational study that included 90 pregnant women was made at Algezeera Hospital, Egypt. A systematic combined approach using Alalfy simple criteria; with applying the ultrasound criteria suggestive of PAS in the 3D-TUI, and 3D power Doppler ultrasound volume was performed to scan the placenta previa and to assess if it is non-adherent or PAS and to determine its subtype (accreta, increta or percreta). Results: The study shows a high agreement between the 3D-TUI with 3D power Doppler US using Alalfy simple criteria and the operative findings in the diagnosis and differentiation of placenta previa (non-adherent) from PAS (adherent) and its subtypes. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV) and accuracy of the 3D-TUI cuts in diagnosing adherent from non-adherent were 100%, 100%, 100%, 100% and 100%, respectively. 3D TUI-cuts has a diagnostic accuracy of 98.8 percent when compared to operative findings in accurately determining the exact subtype of placenta accreta spectrum. Conclusion: The systematic combined approach using Alalfy Simple Criteria for assessment of placenta previa and PAS that entails applying the ultrasound criteria suggestive of PAS in the 3D-TUI—3D power Doppler volume has a high degree of accuracy in the diagnosis of PAS from non-adherent placenta and in accurately diagnosing the subtype of PAS (accreta, increta or percreta). 3D-TUI-cuts facilitates the evaluation of the myometrial thickness and the depth of placental invasion with much better differentiation between different subtypes of PAS with better identification of focal from diffuse invasion with the ability of 3D power Doppler to delineate the vessels invading a part of the myometrium or the whole myometrium, and bridging vessels and high vascularity.

Authors: Kim Min Jung , Lim Hee-Sook , Lee Hae-Hyeog , Kim Tae-Hee , Park Yongsoon
Published: October 2021

Background: The nutritional status of pregnant women has a significant impact on maternal health, fetal growth, and pregnancy outcomes. The purpose of this study was to investigate the associations among advanced maternal age, eating habits, knowledge level, and obstetric outcome in pregnant women. Methods: We conducted an observational single center study of 168 pregnant women. The participants were divided into three groups by age: group I (≤29 years old, n = 36), group II (30 to 34 years old, n = 87), and group III (≥35 years old, n = 45). We studied general features, dietary habits, nutritional knowledge and necessity of education, and understanding of dietary guidelines and practice of them. Results: The pre-pregnancy weight of pregnant women significantly increased with age (p = 0.002), and the group I pregnant women were more likely to be underweight, while rates of overweight and obesity were higher in the group III women than the other groups (p < 0.001). Frequencies of hypertension and gestational diabetes tended to increase as the age of mother increased. In the assessment of level of knowledge of information about pregnancy, childbearing, and infant care, pregnant women who responded “do not know at all or do not know” was higher in group I than group III (p = 0.025). During pregnancy, the experience of having received counseling or education was less common in group I compared to the other groups, but the difference was not statistically significant. The total score for dietary action guidelines was lower in group I, but the difference was not statistically significant. Conclusion: The pregnancy outcome will be good, despite advanced maternal age, if they have good nutritional status, a healthy lifestyle, good and knowledge of nutrition.
Intraoperative management of a Robert’s uterus without hematometra in blind hemi-cavity preoperatively misdiagnosed as septate uterus
Authors: Wang Ji-Chen , Wei De-Ying , Su Chen , Han Qi , Gai Yong-Hao
Published: October 2021

Background: Robert’s uterus is a rare müllerian duct anomaly described as an asymmetric septate uterus with a noncommunicating cavity. Its main presentation is recurrent cyclical abdominal pain. However, patients with Robert’s uterus may present with recurrent pregnancy loss and infertility. Case: We herein report a rare presentation of Robert’s uterus in a 23-year-old woman who suffered from primary infertility without a history of dysmenorrhea. Preoperative two-dimensional ultrasound (2D-US) suggested that the patient only had a partial septate uterus. A hysteroscopy found only the right side of the uterine cavity with a narrow channel while the left uterine cornua and left tubal ostium were not visualized. Intraoperative transabdominal 2D-US confirmed that there were two uterine cavities, a blind hemi-cavity, and a contralateral communicating hemi-cavity. Subsequently, the asymmetric septum was successfully removed by ultrasound-guided hysteroscopy. Conclusion: For patients diagnosed with septate uterus by 2D-US, three-dimensional ultrasound or magnetic resonance imaging is required to make a definitive diagnosis and to help with surgical planning. If results are inconclusive, intraoperative ultrasound-guided hysteroscopic metroplasty may be a reliable pathway for the definitive diagnosis and treatment of Robert’s uterus.

The manuscript from Subramanian and Kumar shows a lack of vaccine efficacy on Covid Incidence. However, this paper suffers major pitfalls : inadequate outcome, lack of confounding factors, inadequate time period (7 days), inclusion/exclusion criteria not respected, causal inference from inappropriate data, and erroneous interpretation of the data. We comment on these issues in detail and show that Subramanian and Kumar’s paper is flawed and misleading.

Modernization of Russian district heating systems with the help of biomass energy – a Gordian knot?
Authors: Salonen Hilma
Published: October 2021

The article discusses the prospects of local wood waste resources as replacements for fossil fuel imports in the remote settlements of the Russian North from a viewpoint of a case study: the Arkhangelsk region and its outdated heating and fossil fuel delivery systems. Drawing on energy transition literature and expert interviews, the most influential factors are defined in geographic-infrastructural, institutional, financial, and behavioral contexts. In conclusion, the article determines that a key issue is that the constraints for alternative energy sources reinforce each other, while the actors working for them find themselves in an isolated position. This is especially true for the institutional and financial constraints. However, by examining the enabling factors it is possible to see how the bundle of constraints could also be undone together. Most efficient way for success would likely be helping municipalities and actors in the fields of biomass and energy production to form joint clusters and share resources.
Kobiece spotkania z Islandią. Prolegomena
Authors: Rott Dariusz
Published: October 2021

W artykule autor podejmuje tematykę sposobu przedstawiania kobiet w relacjach podróżniczych o Islandii, których autorami są mężczyźni (m.in. Daniel Vetter, Edmund Chojecki i Ferdynand Goetel), a także kobiecego pisania o Islandii w piśmiennictwie polskim. Zagadnienie to nie było w ogóle podejmowane w dotychczasowej refleksji naukowej. Dokonano chronologicznego i syntetycznego przeglądu oraz zinwentaryzowania literatury podmiotowej z wykorzystaniem elementów feministycznej krytyki literackiej. Wypowiedzi przestawiające kobiece doświadczenie i poetykę kobiecego pisania o Islandii pojawiają się w praktyce twórczej polskich autorów dopiero w 1977 roku (pierwsza kobieca relacja autorstwa Haliny Ogrodzińskiej), by w ostatnich latach znacznie się rozwinąć (ilościowo i jakościowo) w licznych reportażach książkowych autorstwa m.in. Magdaleny Anny Węcławiak, Agnieszki Rezler, czy projekcie z pogranicza sztuk plastycznych i książki artystycznej autorstwa Soni Rammer. Dokonany przegląd pokazuje, że praktyka kobiecego pisania o Islandii rozwinęła się w ostatnich latach i wymaga szczegółowych analiz i interpretacji badawczych. Otworzy to niewątpliwie nowe perspektywy badawcze penetrujące również inne, intersemiotyczne obszary: fotografię, muzykę (Hania Rani i jej płyta Esja) czy plastykę (Magdalena Armanda Kołakowska i Sonia Rammer).
Czerwone imperium. Obraz Związku Radzieckiego w reportażach polskich klasyków gatunku (M. Wańkowicz, K. Pruszyński, H. Krall, R. Kapuściński)
Authors: KALISZEWSKI ANDRZEJ
Published: October 2021

Powodem podjęcia tematyki opisu Związku Radzieckiego w polskich reportażach była chęć zbadania, jak najwięksi polscy reportażyści zmagali się z tak ważnym polityczno-społecznym problemem. Radziecki komunizm stanowił dla pisarzy i historyków trudne wyzwanie, które stawiało przed nimi wiele pytań: jak ustrzec się czarnych i białych stereotypów, presji historycznych zaszłości czy nacisków cenzury okresu PRL. Jak nie dołączyć do naiwnego chóru niektórych zachodnich intelektualistów oczarowanych sowiecką propagandą (z czym borykali się Wańkowicz i Pruszyński)? W artykule pokazano wykorzystanie indywidualnych technik reporterskich i środków artystycznych w podjętych obserwacjach i formułowanych refleksjach.Materiał badawczy uporządkowany został chronologicznie. Napisane z artyzmem reportaże Wańkowicza z lat 30. XX w. utrwalają fascynację nowo powstającym państwem robotników, ale odnotowują też wiele niepokojących zjawisk, kontrastów, kłamstw. Szczególnie krytyczne spostrzeżenia musiał potem pisarz usuwać bądź łagodzić w powojennych wydaniach. Te interesujące, autocenzorskie zmiany zbadano szczegółowo w niniejszym artykule. Teksty Pruszyńskiego stanowią cenny suplement do skomplikowanych relacji rządu Sikorskiego i głównych aliantów z państwem Stalina. Przedstawiają też budowanie polskiej armii na terenie ZSRR. Jest to zarazem pełen kunsztu i ekspresji obraz dzielnego narodu kierowanego przez charyzmatycznego dyktatora (teksty powstały przed odkryciem zbrodni katyńskiej!). Hanna Krall – reporterka z państwa satelickiego – choć zależna od swoich partyjnych szefów, zdołała swym stylem „małego realizmu” i techniką mikroanaliz przekazać autentyczny obraz życia jednostek w państwie radzieckim. Nie udało jej się jednak uniknąć obowiązkowego wtedy optymizmu w odniesieniu do całego systemu (zwłaszcza reform rozpoczynanych przez Chruszczowa i Breżniewa). Ryszard Kapuściński podejmował tematy radzieckie w licznych utworach na przestrzeni wielu lat, szczególnie ciekawe są jego reportaże z egzotycznych, azjatyckich republik i pokazanie całego tygla kulturowego byłego ZSRR. Dane mu było też opisywać pierestrojkę i ostateczny upadek czerwonego imperium, budowanie fundamentów nowej Rosji.Artykuł opiera się na następującej tezie: najwybitniejsi a dysponujący zróżnicowanym warsztatem reportażyści natrafiali na poważne – obiektywne i subiektywne – trudności w ukazaniu dynamicznego spektrum przeobrażeń i perspektyw, jakie dla samego ZSRR, ale także dla Polski, niósł komunizm. Efekty prac reporterskich są więc zróżnicowane, widać na nich odciśnięte piętno czasów.Tekst sytuuje się w obszarach: nauki o komunikacji społecznej i mediach, literaturoznawstwa i historii współczesnej. Metodologie zastosowane w artykule to analiza i interpretacja tekstu, analiza stylistyczna, genologiczna i porównawcza, badania tematologiczne i historyczne.

Роль перевода в становлении поэтики раннего украинского модернизма начала ХХ в.
Authors: Лесная Галина
Published: October 2021

В статье рассмотрен своеобразный переводческий «взрыв», которым отмечены первые десятилетия ХХ в.: необходимость перевода как акта художественного творчества осознавали все поколения украинских писателей. В первую очередь это касается литературных групп «Молодая Муза» и «Украинская хата», стремившихся освоить эстетику модернизма. Их эстетические установки былиориентированы на западноевропейскую философию, поэзию французских символистов, а также на восприятие художественных тенденций, идущих из Польши и России. Будучи инструментом, с помощью которого молодое поколение украинских писателей осваивало новое содержание зарубежных литератур, перевод как вид художественного творчества способствовал обновлению поэтики украинской литературы начала ХХ в. и вёл к новаторским открытиям в ней самой.

“Down Beside where the Waters Flow": Reclaiming Rivers for American Studies (Introduction)
Authors: Della Marca Manlio , Lübken Uwe
Published: October 2021

Over the past three decades, rivers have become a fascinating and popular subject of scholarly interest, not only in the field of environmental history, where river histories have developed into a distinct subgenre, but also in the emerging field of environmental humanities. In this scholarship, rivers have often been reconceptualized as socio-natural sites where human and non-human actors interact with the natural world, generating complex legacies, path dependencies, and feedback loops. Furthermore, rivers have been described as hybrid “organic machines,” whose energy has been utilized by humans in many different ways, including the harvesting of both hydropower and salmon. Indeed, as several environmental historians have noted, in many regions of the world, watercourses have been transformed by technology to such an extent that they increasingly resemble enviro-technical assemblages rather than natural waterways. Rivers have also been discussed through the lens of “eco-biography,” a term coined by Mark Cioc in his influential monograph on the Rhine River, a book informed by “the notion that a river is a biological entity—that it has a ‘life’ and ‘a personality’ and therefore a ‘biography’.” Quite surprisingly, despite this “river turn” (to use Evenden's phrase), rivers have played a marginal role in recent American Studies scholarship. To address this gap, this issue of RIAS brings together scholars from different disciplines, countries, and continents to analyze a wide variety of river experiences, histories, and representations across the American hemisphere and beyond. Hence the title of this volume, Rivers of the Americas, should be seen as both an allusion to the Rivers of America book series (a popular series of sixty-five volumes, each on a particular US river, published between 1937 and 1974) and as a reminder of the still untapped potential of hemispheric, transnational, and comparative modes of critical engagement with rivers in American Studies.
Entre jeu et nostalgie. Les topoï courtois dans Les Trois Aveugles de Compiègne de Jean Ott
Authors: Gęsicka Anna
Published: October 2021

The subject of this paper is an analysis of Jean Ott’s theater play Les Trois Aveugles de Compiègne. In his adaptation of a 13th-century famed “fabliau” Jean Ott (1878–1935), a lesser-known French author, offers its receiver an interesting intertextual play. In a manner that is both parodic and nostalgic he appeals to the courtly topoi, treating it as a signpost that defines the development of action and the semantic scope of his work.

Published: October 2021

In this paper, the fundamental semiconductor properties of Hg1-xCdxTe and Hg1-xZnxTe are investigated by ab initio calculations based on the FP-LAPW method.   Structural properties have been calculated using LDA and GGA approximations. The electronic properties are studied using the LDA and GGA approximations, and the potential TB-mBJLDA coupled with the lattice parameters aLDA and aGGA. The optical properties are determined from the optimal gap energies based on the TB-mBJLDA potential. Lattice parameters aLDA obtained by the LDA calculations predict values that are in good agreement with the experimental results and are better than those results obtained by the GGA calculations.  The use of TB-mBJLDA potential coupled with the lattice parameter aGGA gives gap energy values in good agreement with the experimental results for all alloys except  Hg1-xZnxTe (x=0.5, 0.75) where the (TB-mBJ LDA+aLDA) is more suitable. Optical constants are calculated from the dielectric function in the energy range (0-30 eV).  The spectrum of real and imaginary parts of the dielectric function, the energy loss function, the refractive index, the extinction coefficient, the absorption coefficient, and the reflectivity show that optical properties of Hg1-xCdxTe are comparable to those of  Hg1-xZnxTe. Our results are found to be in reasonable agreement with existing data reported in the literature.
La propuesta del Cesder-Chiapas en la construcción de una interculturalidad experiencial
Authors: Navarro Martínez Sergio Iván , Saldívar Moreno (México) Antonio
Published: October 2021

El artículo reflexiona sobre la construcción de la práctica educativa desde una perspectiva que denominamos interculturalidad experiencial del Centro de Estudios para el Desarrollo Rural, en Chiapas. En el aspecto metodológico, la investigación se posiciona en el pensamiento decolonial y en una perspectiva constructivista. Uno de los hallazgos es que lo experiencial se asume como el espacio de intersección entre las distintas dimensiones que conforman la práctica educativa y la cotidianidad del sujeto, y es que en la experiencia están los saberes, emociones, posiciones políticas, expectativas y deseos que contribuyen a la construcción de aprendizajes socioculturalmente significativos. El compromiso del proceso formativo va más allá del espacio áulico; es decir, se presta especial atención al proceso individual y colectivo que los estudiantes van desarrollando a lo largo de su formación y la manera en que sus acciones repercuten en su familia, grupo de trabajo, organización o comunidad. El trabajo concluye que la propuesta educativa de la interculturalidad experiencial (no intencionada en términos curriculares) se propicia y enriquece por las diferentes reflexiones, discusiones, interacciones, contradicciones y dinámicas entre docentes y estudiantes que se construyen en la cotidianidad dentro y fuera del aula y a partir de la vinculación con las comunidades y organizaciones sociales.

A Critical Discourse Analysis of the Marriage Certificate (Nikah Nama) in Pakistan
Authors: Asghar Jabreel
Published: October 2021

This research paper looks at the language use to exploit and propagate certain stereotypes imposing on the parties involved in the institution of marriage. A critical discourse analysis with a field, tenor, mode approach uncovers how bride and bridegroom are deprived of their consents on various issues and are socially forced to accept the assumptions created by prevalent social norms. The study exposes how the use of certain discourses and lexical choices restrict the participants to overlook or discard other options which could be otherwise legally and religiously granted to them. The study emphasizes that the current marriage certificate (Nikah Nama) needs to be thoroughly revised in order to eliminate language exploitation and allow both parties to be well aware and exercise their rights before giving their consent in good faith, predetermined by the social taboos.
Impact of Shia-Sunni Annoyances on the Contemporary Geopolitics in the Middle East: A Critical Appraisal
Authors: Kalim Inayat , Mubeen Muhammad , Ahmad Sohail
Published: October 2021

The modern-day Shiite-Sunni split between the Sunnite Kingdom of SaudiArabia and Shia theocracy Islamic Republic of Iran is predominantly portrayed as a sectarian conflict. Instead, their rivalry constituted geopolitical, economic, military, and religious supremacy and legitimacy in the region of the Middle East. Riyadh and Tehran are convoluted in a complex rivalry over a volatile region where both want their dominance and become a Muslim world leader. Religious dissimilarities are of secondary worth for the political elite of both the states, despite the doctrinal variance of Wahhabism and Shiism in their socio-religious setup; the competition of geostrategic influence in the Middle East makes the primary concern instead. Both countries have directly and indirectly supported sectarian violence and militancy in the region, which has caused immense harm to Muslim unity. Muslims are embroiled in several problems and conflicts throughout the world in the name of religious sectarianism, which has weakened their position at the international level.

Published: October 2021

The beauty of society lies in the differences of opinions, and if this difference of opinion is constructive, society booms. The difference of opinions is also known as conflict of opinions. The study aimed to explore the practices and perceptions of different conflict management styles adopted by the different academic managers in the area of Southern Punjab. As the research problem is a current phenomenon and survey research design is most appropriate to achieve such kind of study. All Principals/Vice Principals and teachers of all public and private colleges of the Southern Punjab region were the populations of the study. By adopting a multistage sampling technique, the targeted sample was selected. Rahim Organizational Conflict Inventory (ROCI), designed by Rahim in 1983, was adopted to measure the conflict management styles of administrators and cross-check them with their subordinates. Data collection was done by the researcher personally. Collected data was feed in the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 21 and got the results by the test of ANOVA. Based on the findings of the study in a tabulated form, observable suggestions were also designed.
Hemangioblastoma diagnosis and surveillance in von Hippel–Lindau disease: a consensus statement
Authors: Huntoon Kristin , Shepard Matthew J. , Lukas Rimas V. , McCutcheon Ian E. , Daniels Anthony B. , Asthagiri Ashok R.
Published: October 2021

OBJECTIVE

Hemangioblastomas are a frequent underlying cause of neurological morbidity and death in patients with von Hippel–Lindau disease (VHL). Although these benign tumors can cause significant neurological debility when undetected and untreated, unified evidence-based surveillance recommendations for VHL patients have not been established. To develop consensus recommendations, the VHL Alliance established an expert committee, named the International VHL Surveillance Guidelines Consortium, to define surveillance recommendations.

METHODS

The Central Nervous System (CNS) Hemangioblastoma Subcommittee of the Guidelines Consortium was formed as a multidisciplinary team of experts in the diagnosis and management of hemangioblastomas. Recommendations were formulated using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) and National Comprehensive Cancer Network Categories of Evidence and Consensus categorization after a comprehensive literature review.

RESULTS

Published studies (n = 49) that discussed age at onset, MRI frequency, natural history of VHL, and the risks and benefits of surveillance were analyzed. Based on this analysis, the authors recommend that clinical evaluation (yearly) be used as the primary screening tool for hemangioblastomas in VHL. The subcommittee suggests that screening be performed between the ages of 11 and 65 years, or with the onset of symptoms, for synchronicity with other testing regimens in VHL. The subcommittee also recommends that baseline MRI be first performed at the age of 11 years (suggested 2B, level of evidence D) or after identification of neurological symptoms or signs (if earlier) and continue every 2 years (recommended 2A, level of evidence A).

CONCLUSIONS

The CNS Hemangioblastoma Subcommittee of the International VHL Surveillance Guidelines Consortium here proposes guidelines that aim to increase the early detection of VHL-associated hemangioblastomas to reduce their morbidity and mortality.
Utility of GPI+VIM dual-lead deep brain stimulation for Parkinson’s disease patients with significant residual tremor on medication
Authors: Azghadi Adel , Rajagopal Megan M. , Atkinson Kelsey A. , Holloway Kathryn L.
Published: October 2021

OBJECTIVE

Randomized controlled trials have demonstrated that deep brain stimulation (DBS) of both the globus pallidus internus (GPI) and subthalamic nucleus (STN) for Parkinson’s disease (PD) is superior to the best medical therapy. Tremor is particularly responsive to DBS, with reports of 70%–80% improvement. However, a small number of patients do not obtain the expected response with both STN and GPI targets. Indeed, the authors’ patient population had a similar 81.2% tremor reduction with a 9.6% failure rate. In an analysis of these failures, they identified patients with preoperative on-medication tremor who subsequently received a GPI lead as a subpopulation at higher risk for inadequate tremor control. Thereafter, STN DBS was recommended for patients with on-medication tremor. However, for the patients with symptoms and comorbidities that favored GPI as the target, dual GPI and ventral intermediate nucleus of the thalamus (VIM) leads were proposed. This report details outcomes for those patients.

METHODS

This is a retrospective review of patients with PD who met the criteria for and underwent simultaneous GPI+VIM DBS surgery from 2015 to 2020 and had available follow-up data. The preoperative Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale scores were obtained with the study participants on and off their medication. Postoperatively, the GPI lead was kept on at baseline and scores were obtained with and without VIM stimulation.

RESULTS

Thirteen PD patients with significant residual preoperative tremor on medication underwent simultaneous GPI+VIM DBS surgery (11 unilateral, 2 bilateral). A mean 90.6% (SD 15.0%) reduction in tremor scores was achieved with dual GPI+VIM stimulation compared to a 21.8% (SD 71.9%) reduction with GPI stimulation alone and a 30.9% (SD 37.8%) reduction with medication. Although rigidity and bradykinesia reductions were accomplished with just GPI stimulation, 13 of the 15 hemispheres required VIM stimulation to achieve excellent tremor control.

CONCLUSIONS

GPI+VIM stimulation was required to adequately control tremor in all but 2 patients in this series, substantiating the authors’ hypothesis that, in their population, medication-resistant tremor does not completely respond to GPI stimulation. Dual stimulation of the GPI and VIM proved to be an effective option for the patients who had symptoms and comorbidities that favored GPI as a target and had medication-resistant tremor.
