Este texto se debruça sobre formas de conhecimento histórico mediadas pela presença de espíritos de colonizadores na vida cotidiana e ritual de residentes da região costeira da Guiana, antiga Guiana Britânica. Por meio da descrição de diversas ordens de relações entre membros de uma vertente hindu heterodoxa – o culto à deusa Kali, divindades hindus e espíritos –, demonstro que espíritos de colonizadores têm o potencial de desestabilizar e transformar os corpos de humanos continuamente, precisamente por conta de seus atributos, constituídos de forma violenta no passado. Apresento, ainda, distintas possibilidades de historicizar o culto à Kali, na medida em que concebo o corpo como instância fundamental de incorporação da história e lócus de transformações. Por fim, abordo o conceito de forma, que aponta para a construção relacional de divindades, espíritos e pessoas humanas.

Synthesis and further study of the structure and various properties of the model Na-Cs and Na-Rb aluminoborosilicate glasses with calcium, strontium, and barium addition have been carried out at fixed ratio of modifying and network-forming cations as part of research in the safe immobilization of high-level radioactive waste. Vibrational spectroscopy techniques have been used to establish the high degree of polymerization and noticeable structural similarity of all synthesized glasses. It has been shown that increasing fraction of large cations in the total content of modifying cations leads to changes in distribution of modifying cations between silicate and borate structural units. The observed structural homogeneity, as well as the similarity of anionic structure, at different content and various combinations of alkali and alkaline-earth cations points at promising application of the glasses with such content as a basis for synthesis of borosilicate matrix materials for high-level radioactive waste disposal.

Authors:   South Ural State University, Chelyabinsk, Russia, Shinkaruk N. , Nitskaya S.
Published: September 2024

The current legislation provides for tight standards of residual concentrations of pollutants if wastewater is discharged into reservoirs. The problem of waste management for phenolic compounds in wastewater is one of the most urgent, which requires the development of new efficient, environmentally friendly and economical methods. The conditions of wastewater formation are very diverse in chemical composition; this implies the use of specific technological conditions for purification, taking into account not only complexity of the component composition of wastewater, but also the presence of related substances, which in most cases are not fully considered. The range of concentrations of phenols in various industries varies significantly. Currently, there are various methods of wastewater dephenolization. Choosing a technique for removing phenol and its derivatives, it is necessary to determine the composition of the related contaminants, and adopt a purification method on the basis of the requirements, established for the quality of the purified wastewater. Currently, the development of optimal solutions for treatment of phenolic wastewater is a priority, taking into account the subsequent use of treated water. The applied methods of dephenolization can be divided into two groups: separation methods and destruction methods. Biopurification is mainly used at sufficiently low concentrations of phenol, the restrictions for biopurification of wastewater are associated with the biodegradability of pollutants and the presence of substances that inhibit the growth of microorganisms in the composition of wastewater. Photocatalytic oxidation with a fairly wide range of photocatalysts is considered one of the promising techniques for destruction of organic pollutants. The main methods of removal of phenols and their derivatives from wastewater are systematized and described. Attention is mainly paid to the most efficient methods of phenol degradation, such as photocatalytic oxidation, electrochemical oxidation, and biopurification.

Published: September 2024

Patients with renal diseases associated with salt-losing tubulopathies categorized as Gitelman and classic form of Bartter syndrome have undergone genetic screening for possible mutation capture in two different genes: SLC12A3 and CLCNKB. Clinical symptoms of these two diseases may overlap. Patients with clinical symptoms of antenatal form of Bartter syndrome were screened for mutations in two different genes: KCNJ1 and SLC12A1. The aim was to establish genetic mutation screening of Bartter/Gitelman syndrome and to confirm the proposed diagnosis. We have identified seven different causative mutations in the SLC12A3 gene, four in the CLCNKB gene, two in the SLC12A1 gene, and none in the KCNJ1 gene. Nine of these mutations are novel. In one case, genetic analysis led to re-evaluation of diagnosis between the Gitelman and classic form of Bartter syndrome.

Published: September 2024

Multiple explanations have been provided as to why individuals with disabilities are so underrepresented in the ‘helping’ professions (e.g., medicine, social work, psychology and more). One possible reason is that as undergraduate students they were less likely to obtain the competitive credentials needed to gain admission to professional programs in such areas, either due to lower ability or lack of sufficient accommodations. The present study assessed the degree to which type and severity of disability, demographic factors (e.g., SES), dispositional factors (e.g., self-esteem), perceived stress, and perceived barriers are predictive of undergraduate students’ ability to obtain such credentials. A survey of 132 North American students suggests that dispositional factors such as the Big Five personality trails of Conscientiousness, Openness and lower Agreeableness, self-esteem and, self-efficacy/self-advocacy, as well as lower disability severity and higher SES are the strongest predictors of success in obtaining competitive post-graduate admission credentials. We propose that, similar to other demographic groups, dispositional factors are the strongest predictors of resilience necessary for academic success.

Published: September 2024

Cardiac metabolism ensures a continuous ATP supply, primarily using fatty acids in a healthy state and favoring glucose in pathological conditions. Pyruvate kinase muscle (PKM) controls the final step of glycolysis, with PKM1 being the main isoform in the heart. PKM2, elevated in various heart diseases, has been suggested to play a protective role in cardiac stress, but its function in basal cardiac metabolism remains unclear. We examined hearts from global PKM2 knockout (PKM2−/−) mice and found reduced intracellular glucose. Isotopic tracing of U‐13C glucose revealed a shift to biosynthetic pathways in PKM2−/− cardiomyocytes. Total ATP content was two‐thirds lower in PKM2−/− hearts, and functional analysis indicated reduced mitochondrial oxygen consumption. Total reactive oxygen species (ROS) and mitochondrial superoxide were also increased in PKM2−/− cardiomyocytes. Intriguingly, PKM2−/− hearts had preserved ejection fraction compared to controls. Mechanistically, increased calcium/calmodulin‐dependent kinase II activity and phospholamban phosphorylation may contribute to higher sarcoendoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase 2 pump activity in PKM2−/− hearts. Loss of PKM2 led to altered glucose metabolism, diminished mitochondrial function, and increased ROS in cardiomyocytes. These data suggest that cardiac PKM2 acts as an important rheostat to maintain ATP levels while limiting oxidative stress. Although loss of PKM2 did not impair baseline contractility, its absence may make hearts more sensitive to environmental stress or injury.
Akt1 deficiency does not affect fiber type composition or mitochondrial protein expression in skeletal muscle of male mice

Published: September 2024

Insulin‐like growth factor‐1‐induced activation of ATP citrate lyase (ACLY) improves muscle mitochondrial function through an Akt‐dependent mechanism. In this study, we examined whether Akt1 deficiency alters skeletal muscle fiber type and mitochondrial function by regulating ACLY‐dependent signaling in male Akt1 knockout (KO) mice (12–16 weeks old). Akt1 KO mice exhibited decreased body weight and muscle wet weight, with reduced cross‐sectional areas of slow‐ and fast‐type muscle fibers. Loss of Akt1 did not affect the phosphorylation status of ACLY in skeletal muscle. The skeletal muscle fiber type and expression of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation complex proteins were unchanged in Akt1 KO mice compared with the wild‐type control. These observations indicate that Akt1 is important for the regulation of skeletal muscle fiber size, whereas the regulation of muscle fiber type and muscle mitochondrial content occurs independently of Akt1 activity.

Published: September 2024

This article is concerned with the qualitative properties for the Cauchy problem of a non-Newtonian filtration equation with a reaction source term and volumetric moisture content. On the basis of the slowly decaying behavior of volumetric moisture content, we establish new critical exponents that depend on the ratio of coefficients and exponent of volumetric moisture content. Meantime, under appropriate conditions, we show that the solution globally exists for small enough initial data and blows up in finite time for large enough or any nontrivial initial datum.

Biosynthesized nanomaterials and nanocomposites (NCs) could have promising potentialities to overcome the multi-drug-resistant (MDR) pathogenic bacteria, particularly Salmonella Typhimurium. Radish seed (Raphanus sativus) mucilage (RSM) was employed for synthesizing/capping selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) and their nanoconjugates with chitosan (Ct) were assessed for inhibiting MDR S. typhimurium. The SeNPs were effectually biosynthesized using RSM and have 4.21 nm mean size and −25.6 mV surface charge. Different NC formulations of Ct/RSM/SeNPs were generated and validated using infrared spectroscopy and electron microscopy. The entire formulations could suppress S. Typhimurium growth, including MDR strains. F3 NCs (with 53.64 nm diameter and +21.1 mV surface charge) had the strongest anti-S. Typhimurium activity that exceeded the action of cephalosporin, and the subsequent antibacterial formulation was F2 (with 41.77 nm diameter and −17.3 mV charge). The NCs of Ct/RSM/SeNPs could severely destruct, deform, and lyse S. Typhimurium cells’ structures throughout 10 h of exposure. The innovative fabricated NCs of Ct/RSM/SeNPs are auspiciously suggested as effectual biocides to eradicate MDR S. Typhimurium in various food-processing facilities.
Unidirectional transmission of optical waveguides in optical communication bands based on the valley Hall effect
Authors: Yang Aichun , Chen Minghua
Published: September 2024

Unidirectional transmission of optical waveguides in optical communication bands has been a difficult problem in the field of optical communication. In this paper, the valley Hall effect is utilized to enhance the transmission efficiency of optical wave in optical communication system. Valley photonic crystal is selected as the main material of optical waveguide in optical communication band. Valley photonic crystal is composed of air columns periodically arranged according to the honeycomb lattice in the dielectric material, which shows the valley Hall topological effect in transverse electric wave mode. By introducing the energy valley degree of freedom into the photonic crystal, the light wave is transmitted locally on the dielectric material at the interface, and the control of the dielectric material realizes the regulation of light transmission. The Chern number of optical waveguide topology in the optical communication band, the exchange phenomenon occurs at the same energy band position and realizes efficient unidirectional transmission of optical waveguides in optical communication bands. The experimental results show that the optical communication band optical waveguide based on the valley Hall effect has unique unidirectional transmission characteristics and robustness to cornering and is capable of realizing unidirectional optical transmission in optical communication systems.

Published: September 2024

The therapeutic efficacy of anticancer drugs heavily relies on their concentration and retention at the corresponding target site. Hence, merely increasing the cellular concentration of drugs is insufficient to achieve satisfactory therapeutic outcomes, especially for the drugs that target specific intracellular sites. This necessitates the implementation of more precise targeting strategies to overcome the limitations posed by diffusion distribution and nonspecific interactions within cells. Consequently, subcellular organelle-targeted cancer therapy, characterized by its exceptional precision, have emerged as a promising approach to eradicate cancer cells through the specific disruption of subcellular organelles. Owing to several advantages including minimized dosage and side effect, optimized efficacy, and reversal of multidrug resistance, subcellular organelle-targeted therapies have garnered significant research interest in recent years. In this review, we comprehensively summarize the distribution of drug targets, targeted delivery strategies at various levels, and sophisticated strategies for targeting specific subcellular organelles. Additionally, we highlight the significance of subcellular targeting in cancer therapy and present essential considerations for its clinical translation.

Published: September 2024

Inducing an anti-inflammatory response before neurogenesis is crucial in effectively addressing peripheral nerve damage. Herein, we developed shell-core-structured nanofilms (Cur/PLCL@BDNF/CNT) using poly-(l-Lactide)-Caprolactone (PLCL) and curcumin (Cur, an anti-inflammatory agent) as the shell layer, and carbon nanotubes (CNT) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF, a neurogenic factor) as the core via coaxial electrospinning technology. The resulting Cur/PLCL@BDNF/CNT film exhibited a characteristic fibrous structure with remarkable shell-core architecture, demonstrating unweakened mechanical properties. Notably, it displayed sustained release kinetics with distinct stages: prioritized Cur release within the initial 12 days and delayed BDNF release between 10 to 30 days. Additionally, the Cur/PLCL@BDNF/CNT film demonstrated high biocompatibility with Schwann cells. Subsequent in vitro analysis revealed the potent anti-inflammatory capabilities of the released Cur from the shell layer, while the BDNF released from the core layer effectively induced neurogenic differentiation of Schwann cells. The Cur/PLCL@BDNF/CNT film was rolled into a nerve conduit and then utilized for nerve regeneration in a 10 mm rat sciatic nerve defect model. The staged release of Cur and BDNF facilitated by the Cur/PLCL@BDNF/CNT film established an anti-inflammatory microenvironment before initiating nerve regeneration, resulting in better nerve restoration. This study emphasizes the significance of shell-core-structured nanofilms in temporally regulating anti-inflammation and neurogenesis.

Published: September 2024

The Social and Civic Women’s League operated in communist Poland in the years 1945–1949. Its first official publication, Praca Kobiet, appeared in 1946. Periodicals were published by the Warsaw Regional Board of the association. The national magazine Nasza Praca, an organ of the General Board, reached the readers just before the start of 1947. The published texts provided information concerning the activity of international women’s movements and organizations such as the Women’s International Democratic Federation (WIDF). The cognitive values of such publications greatly varied. This was significantly influenced by the language journalists used to communicate (‘newspeak’), and the propaganda (non-substantive) choice of recorded and omitted facts. Their analysis, however, helped to reveal the mechanisms of the functioning (interaction) of leftist women’s movements on the international arena in the second half of the 1940s.

Das Kartellrecht soll den Wettbewerb schützen und damit Verbraucherwohlfahrt fördern. Es könnte jedoch auch Unternehmen daran hindern, mehr Nachhaltigkeit durch Industriekooperationen zu erzielen. Dieser Beitrag zeigt auf, dass Initiativen von Unternehmen eine zweitbeste Lösung für Nachhaltigkeitsdefizite sein können (wenn politische Lösungen ausbleiben) und es daher erstrebenswert wäre, Nachhaltigkeitsinitiativen kartellrechtlich zu prüfen und gegebenenfalls freizugeben. In diesem Zusammenhang wird erläutert, unter welchen Bedingungen Nachhaltigkeitsinitiativen wohlfahrtssteigernd sind bzw. kartellrechtlich bereits möglich sind. Dahingehend wird beschrieben, insbesondere im Kontext der Verbraucherbeteiligung, welche Methoden zur Verfügung stehen, um einzelne Initiativen zu bewerten und wie Wettbewerbsbehörden in der bisherigen Fallpraxis vorgingen.

Authors: Kim Hyeon Cheol , Ha Si Young , Yang Jae-Kyung
Published: September 2024

The antioxidant properties of Ainsliaea acerifolia, a wild edible plant, were examined by ultrasonic-assisted ethanol extraction methods. The primary objective was to optimize the extraction conditions and accurately predict antioxidant activities using advanced machine learning models. The extraction conditions were optimized using Response Surface Methodology (RSM). Various parameters, including temperature, extraction time, and ethanol concentration, were adjusted to maximize antioxidant activity. The optimal conditions identified were a temperature of 68 °C, an extraction time of 86 min, and an ethanol concentration of 57%. Under these conditions, the extracts exhibited the highest antioxidant activity. To enhance the predictive accuracy of antioxidant activity, an XGBoost (XGB) model was employed. The XGB model performance was evaluated and compared with the RSM model. The XGB model achieved an R² value of 94.71%, significantly outperforming the RSM model by 12.8%. This highlights the superiority of the XGB model in predicting antioxidant activities based on the given extraction parameters. Additionally, the study developed a graphical user interface (GUI). This GUI allows researchers and industry experts to input extraction conditions and obtain quick, accurate predictions of antioxidant activity.

Published: September 2024

Purpose: to evaluate the impact of classes using adaptive games on the psychological rehabilitation of military personnel in a health care facility.

Material and methods. The study involved 34 male military personnel who were undergoing rehabilitation in a health care facility after being wounded. The study involved determining the psychological state (using the standard TRANS test) and the speed of sensorimotor reactions (using the Visuomotor Choice Reaction and Reaction RMO Pro computer programs) of the military personnel undergoing rehabilitation at the beginning and end of the study. The study lasted three weeks, during which classes were held using adaptive games (Cornhole, Jacollo, Elastik, Kulbutto, Boccia, Paka laka). Classes were held three times a week, lasting 90 minutes each.

Results. It has been established that classes using adaptive games have a positive effect on the level of psychological state and the manifestation of a simple sensorimotor reaction of military personnel undergoing rehabilitation in a health care facility. According to the results of the study, it has been established that anxiety indicators have decreased, and indicators of performance, activity, mood and health have increased. In the course of determining the manifestation of a simple reaction of military personnel undergoing rehabilitation, it has been established that the use of adaptive games has a positive effect on the speed and accuracy of the sensorimotor reaction.

Conclusions. The obtained results prove the effectiveness of the implementation of the project "Ukrainian Center for Occupational Therapy with Adaptive Games" under the program "RITA - Region in Transition" of the Foundation "Education for Democracy". Thanks to the activities carried out using adaptive games aimed at motor activity, fine motor skills and attention, the psycho-emotional state and sensorimotor reaction of military personnel undergoing rehabilitation have changed positively. The presented results indicate the positive impact of adaptive games on the psycho-emotional state and the general process of rehabilitation of military personnel. Therefore, it can be argued that adaptive games are a powerful means of psychological rehabilitation, as well as psycho-emotional and social adaptation.

Published: September 2024

Purpose. Moderate-altitude training is widely accepted to enhance sports performance, particularly for endurance athletes, more than low-altitude training despite the lack of rigorous scientific studies at a project level in Ethiopia. This study aims to identify the effect of varied altitude training on physiological variables at varied altitudes in young project trainees in Ethiopia.

Material and methods: A quasi-experimental, particularly counterbalanced study design was employed using 15 male endurance project trainees, 5 individuals from each training center whose ages ranged from 16 to 20 years. Pre and posttests on Vo2max, heart rate at rest, breath holding time, systolic blood pressure, and mean arterial pressure were made in early morning sessions in their training centers using standardized instruments from 6:00 -8:00 AM.

Results: The moderate-altitude trainees had better mean scores in Vo2max, systolic blood pressure, and breath-holding capacity, but in resting heart rate and mean arterial pressure, the low-altitude trainees were better than the moderate-altitude trainees. However, all training centers showed an improvement in mean score difference, but the result indicates no significant difference (P>0.05) between the moderate and low-altitude project training trainees.

Conclusion: The results show that training at various altitudes has distinct effects on endurance athletes' Vo2max, systolic blood pressure, breath-holding capacity, resting heart rate, and mean arterial pressure. This emphasizes how crucial it is to create customized training plans to maximize output and recuperation. These findings are significant for athletes and coaches who want to use altitude training techniques to improve endurance training results.
Poetics of Genius Loci in Victor Pulkin’s Short Novel (Povest’) “Dobraya Poveter’” (“The Good Wind”)
Authors: Shilova Natalia , Liskov Arseniy
Published: September 2024

. Literary work of V. I. Pulkin (1941–2008) was closely connected with the “local legends” (a term coined by N. P. Antsiferov) of Karelia and the Russian North. The creation of tales, essays and short novels was most often preceded by expeditions in collaboration with the famous folklorist N. A. Krinichnaya (1938–2019). The integration of local folklore plots into the author’s literary text is clearly manifested in the biographical short novel “Dobraya Poveter” (“The Good Wind”) (1984), dedicated to the storyteller M. Korguev and his homeland, the Pomeranian village of Keret. The article for the first time clarifies the creative history of the short novel, discusses its sources, narrative structure and chronotope using archival documents. It establishes that the short novel of V. Pulkin is strongly influenced by both the fairy tale and historical legend genres: Korguev’s life path is described from his daughter’s perspective; the background to the storyteller’s biography is the story of the village of Keret transmitted in the oral memoirs of its inhabitants. The concept of “artistic history” of the Russian North (V. Pulkin’s term) is in sync with N. P. Antsiferov’s and A. A. Ukhtomsky’s reflections on the synthesis of “true story” and “myth” in folklore and literary representations of the area, the specifics and significance of literary local history

Political, religious, and socio-psychological aspects of the relationship between the socio-cultural systems of Russia and the North Caucasus are revealed through the comparison of the poet’s notebooks and notes from the Journal of Military Operations, historical journalism, official documents of the 1830s. The article presents rare materials from the archives of the Russian National Library, the Russian State Library, the Institute of Russian Literature (Pushkin House) of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The manuscripts directly related to Lermontov’s military service in the Caucasus, official documents prepared on special instructions of the General Staff of the Russian Imperial Army, diaries and reflections of Lermontov’s contemporaries containing records of his stay in Caucasian expeditions are considered. Based on the figurative and stylistic analysis of individual entries of the Journal of Military Operations, their belonging to Lermontov is postulated. The emphasis is placed on the integration of the knowledge of a professional military man, a participant in the Caucasian events and the artist’s exploration of the world with his special perception of reality in Lermontov’s style. The systematization of archival sources and the analysis of the opinions expressed in them about the relationship between Russia and the Caucasus made it possible to recreate the context in which Lermontov’s historiosophy was formed, to determine the influence of public sentiment on the formation of the poet’s historical thinking. As a result, the leading ideological constants in the assessment of historical events correlating with Lermontov’s Caucasian historiosophy are revealed in handwritten essays of the 1830s.
Holy Names in Russian Wedding Speeches
Authors: Krasheninnikova Yulia
Published: September 2024

The paper considers the Holy Names (agionyms) that occur in the texts of wedding speeches. The reasons and mechanisms of inclusion of these nominations in the text of wedding rites are analyzed, the key and frequent onyms related to sanctity are highlighted. The work uses a wide range of sources — archival and published materials of the 19th — early 21st centuries. Аghioanthroponyms, aghiotoponyms, eortonyms, templeonyms, and icononyms are recorded in wedding speeches. The group of agioanthroponyms consisting of the names of characters of the Christian pantheon, the Old and New Testaments, famous Christian saints is multifarious. The frequent agioanthroponyms are Jesus Christ, the Mother of God, and Nicholas the Wonderworker, the use of which in some texts in pairs (Spas — Nicholas / Spas — the Mother of God / Nicholas — the Mother of God) indicates that they are endowed with an equal degree of holiness in popular beliefs. The names of biblical characters Adam and Eve are next in frequency of use: their mentioning in the wedding text is connected with the perception of these characters as the progenitors of the human race. The rest of the agioanthroponyms are fixed in single variant, their appearance in the text is sporadic and irregular. Each name has certain meanings in the biblical cultural tradition, and the situation associated with it refers to a certain biblical story. The knowledge of these stories and their articulation by both sides of the wedding rite makes it possible to clarify the cultural orientations and value attitudes of those who came for the bride, as well as the similarity of these attitudes to the perceptions of the bride’s family. Other varieties of agionyms (agiotoponyms, eortonyms, templeonyms) are represented in speeches by one or two examples; their appearance in folklore texts is not a systematic occurrence.
ЛЕКСИКА З ЕМОЦІЙНО-ОЦІННИМ ЗАБАРВЛЕННЯМ У ПОЕТИЧНОМУ МОВЛЕННІ ОКСАНИ ЗАБУЖКО
Authors: Рибалка Я. , Шевченко Т.

Постановка проблеми. У контексті розвитку сучасної лінгвістичної парадигми пріоритетними є антропоцентричні підходи, які спрямовані на вивчення творчості вітчизняних письменників, художній доробок яких зберігає і збагачує українську мову. Соціокультурний підхід спрямовує увагу на людині та її ролі в організації мови як засобу спілкування. Категорії емоційності та оцінності є яскравими засобами передачі досвіду сприйняття. Тому актуальним є дослідження емотивних аспектів мови на прикладі творчості тих чи тих авторів.
Метою статті є дослідити емоційно-оцінні компоненти у творчості Оксани Забужко з акцентом на семантичний і стилістичний рівні.
Методи дослідження: описовий метод, а також комплексний аналіз із залученням компонентного.
Основні результати дослідження. Окреслено межі категорії емотивності та визначено її місце в системі лінгвістичних категорій; проаналізовано погляди провідних мовознавців щодо емоційно-оцінних компонентів та їхнього функціонування в худоньому дискурсі; з’ясовано зв’язок емотивного і оцінного компонентів у значенні слова з урахуванням аспектів їх дослідження; проаналізовано семантичні особливості емоційно-оцінної лексики у поетичному мовленні Оксани Забужко, розглянуто стилістичний аспект відтворення емоцій на прикладі творчості авторки.
Висновки і перспективи.  У художньому дискурсі Оксани Забужко фіксуємо численну кількість неоднорідних та різнозначеннєвих емоційно-оцінних компонентів. З огляду різних класифікацій досліджуваної лексики констатуємо, що у творах авторки наявні: емотивна лексика зі вказівкою на емоції та переживання, емотиви з емоційно-оцінним інгрідієнтом, інтимні звертання, слова з суфіксами зменшеності, пестливості, згрубілості, непритаманні художньому стилю лексеми, модальні слова. Оцінна лексика представлена словами з неоцінним та оцінним денотативним компонентом. У творах емоційна забарвленість надається лексемам за допомогою переносного значення і суфіксів. Аналізовані емоційно-оцінні компоненти є виразниками захоплення, здивування, суму, урізноманітнюють стилістичний художній простір, виконують емоційно виражальну, номінативну, естетичну й  волюнтативну функції, функцію вуалювання й табуювання розповіді.
Nacionalização do ensino e reforma educacional no Rio Grande do Sul (1937-1945)
Authors: Quadros Claudemir de
Published: September 2024

O processo de nacionalização do ensino impactou de modo intenso as políticas dedicadas à educação no Rio Grande do Sul. Por meio desse processo, abriu-se um campo de possibilidades para a atuação do Estado no âmbito educacional do Rio Grande do Sul, que, até então, estruturava-se de forma relativamente frágil, restringia-se a poucos atos administrativos e a incipientes iniciativas de aperfeiçoamento do magistério. Neste texto, apresenta-se um estudo bibliográfico, documental e descritivo, que tem como objetivo demonstrar que, em função da nacionalização do ensino, alteraram-se as formas de administração do sistema educativo no Rio Grande do Sul. Conclui-se que a nacionalização do ensino abriu um campo de possibilidades para a intervenção estatal, pela qual se promoveu uma ampla reforma educacional, orientada e planejada a partir de diretrizes teóricas, técnicas e administrativas, que redefiniu o problema da educação, da escola e da profissionalização do magistério.
A Multi-setting, Contrastive Exploration of both the Eurometal Nightmare Tour and the Nekronomikon Dream Forest in Dean Swinford's Death Metal Epic I: The Inverted Katabasis
Authors: Guardado Salguero Eliseo
Published: September 2024

By using content analysis, this article seeks to explore the different, clashing settings in the novel Death Metal Epic I: The Inverted Katabasis by American novelist and metal music researcher Dean Swinford. In this novel, set in the early 1990s, David Fosberg – both the narrator and the main protagonist – narrates both his challenges and other experiences while in a European tour with his band Valhalla/Katabasis. The settings in this novel are: Miami, Florida, Trondheim, Norway, Prague, Czechoslovakia, and Ghent, Belgium. Such settings are symbolized in the Ouroboros, symbolizing David’s challenges with his band. Also, there is an extra imaginary setting of the Nekronomikon forest, which reflects David’s dream in becoming a successful metal musician. These popular and imagined urban settings are fundamental for musico-cultural adaptations and exchanges within the metal community, which are not excluded from cultural clashes.
