Afraid of the Dark and the Light: Visceralizing Ecocide in The Road and Hell
Authors: Weik von Mossner Alexa 
Published: March 2020

The essay is concerned with the ways in which contemporary science fiction films explore the future subjectivities and societies that may result from radical ecological changes, looking at two pertinent examples from two different national traditions: John Hillcoat’s 2009 film adaptation of Cormac McCarthy’s Pulitzer Prize-win­ning novel The Road (2006), and one of the very few German-Swiss science fiction films with an environmental theme, Tim Fehlbaum’s Hell (2011). It is particularly interested in the relationship between the films’ imagined ecological spaces and the actions of the protagonists of each film on the one hand, and in the relationship between these futuristic diegetic spaces and the contemporary real-life ecological spaces that “play” them on the other hand. Together with the performances of the human actors and the tension and suspense built by the narratives, it argues, the spectacle and insinuated agency of these ecological spaces are centrally responsible for the films’ emotional force and for their ability to engage viewers in stories of global ecocide and human survival. Resumen El ensayo analiza cómo las películas de ciencia ficción exploran las sociedades y subjetividades futuras que pueden surgir de cambios ecológicos radicales, atendiendo a dos ejemplos relevantes de dos tradiciones nacionales diferentes: la adaptación cinematográfica de 2009 de la novela de Cormac McCarthy The Road (2006), ganadora del premio Pulitzer, dirigida por John Hillcoat; y una de las muy escasas películas de ciencia ficción germano-suizas de temática medioambiental, Hell (2011) de Tim Fehlbaum. Se presta especial interés a dos aspectos: por un lado, la relación entre los espacios ecológicos imaginados en las películas y las acciones de los protagonistas de cada película; y por otro lado, la relación entre estos espacios diegéticos futuristas y los espacios ecológicos reales que los representan. Junto con la interpretación de los actores humanos y la tensión y el suspense que construyen las narraciones, el espectáculo y la agencia insinuada de estos espacios ecológicos son en gran medida responsables de la fuerza emocional de las películas y de su habilidad para implicar a la audiencia en historias de ecocidio global y supervivencia humana.
A Turkish Posthumanist Perspective in Science-Fiction: Ecocritical Approaches in Özlem Ada’s Embriyogenesis
Authors: Agin Donmez Basak 
Published: March 2020

The world of science-fiction in Turkey is like a closed circuit, only supported by fans and authors, but an outstanding example, Özlem Ada's Embriyogenesis (1997), provides the reader with a unique experience in the two stories titled "Hisse Senetleri" and "Çaya Yetiştirilir," which can be respectively translated as "Share Certificates" and "You Can Be Ready for Tea Party." Both stories are analyzed in this paper with an ecocritical approach to science-fiction as regards how this genre plays a crucial role in broadening the horizons of ecocriticism. The posthumanist perspective of the author offers the reader a chance to interrogate how traditional science-fiction uses apocalyptic and complacent modes to create futuristic images of the world. Ada's stories are exceptional to the Turkish science-fiction genre as they are environmentally oriented. Resumen El mundo de la ciencia ficción en Turquía es como un circuito cerrado, sólo apoyado por fans y autores; pero un ejemplo destacado, Embriyogenesis (1997) de Özlem Ada, proporciona al lector una experiencia única en las historias tituladas "Hisse Senetleri" y "Çaya Yetiştirilir", que podrían traducirse como “Compartir certificados” y “Puedes estar listo para la fiesta del té”. En este ensayo se analizan ambas historias desde un enfoque ecocrítico en lo referente a cómo la ciencia ficción tiene un papel crucial a la hora de ampliar los horizontes de la ecocrítica. La perspectiva posthumanista de la autora ofrece al lector la oportunidad de cuestionarse cómo la ciencia ficción tradicional usa el modo apocalíptico para crear imágenes futuristas del mundo. Las historias de Ada son excepcionales en el género de la ciencia ficción turca por su orientación medioambiental.
“I know of places where there are stones that talk to me”: A. M. Pires Cabral’s Arado through the lens of Ecocriticism
Authors: Alves Isabel Maria Fernandes 
Published: March 2020

A.M. Pires Cabral (b. 1941) is a Portuguese poet, novelist, essayist, and translator. His first book of poetry Somewhere in the Northeast (1974), condenses the originality of his poetic achievement: the meeting between classic form and rural experience. Stemming from the fact that his poetry is based on a specific place and on an instance of attention to ordinary people and objects is a vision which underlines the involvement of the human destiny with the landscape we inhabit. This paper concentrates on the way A. M. Pires Cabral’s poetry has been an example of attentiveness to and of human conversation with the non-human world. Its uniqueness stems from the relationship to a remote and rural Portuguese region. If isolation defines the place, Pires Cabral’s poetry builds a sense of inclusion and communion between physical place, people, and animals, that is, a sense of belonging. The article analyses A. M. Pires Cabral’s Plow (2009), a book in which his poetic engagement with the natural world promotes new insights into the potential role of poetry, generating a greater environmental awareness and calling for new visions and new responsibility. Resumen A. M. Pires Cabral (n. 1941) es un poeta portugués, novelista, ensayista y traductor. Su primer libro de poesía, Algún lugar en el noreste (1974), condensa la originalidad de su logro poético: la unión entre la forma clásica y la experiencia rural. De hecho, su poesía se basa en un lugar específico y en un ejemplo de atención a la gente común y a los objetos como resultado de una visión que pone de relieve la participación del destino humano con el paisaje que habita. Este trabajo se concentra en cómo la poesía de A. M. Pires Cabral ha sido un ejemplo de atención y de conversación humana con el mundo no humano. Su singularidad se debe a la relación con una región portuguesa remota y rural. Pero si el aislamiento define el lugar, la poesía de Pires Cabral construye un sentido de inclusión y de comunión entre el lugar físico, las personas y los animales, es decir, un sentido de pertenencia. El artículo analiza Arado (2009), obra de A. M. Pires Cabral, un libro en el que su compromiso poético con el mundo natural promueve nuevos conocimientos sobre el papel potencial de la poesía, lo que genera una mayor conciencia ambiental, pidiendo nuevas visiones y nuevas responsabilidades.
<b>Melting Ice and the Paradoxes of Zeno: Didactic Impulses and Aesthetic Distanciation in German Climate Change Fiction</b> // Impulsos didácticos y distancia estética en la ficción alemana sobre el cambio climático
Authors: Goodbody Axel Howarth 
Published: March 2020

Although global warming has been a topic of American and British popular fiction since the 1980s, its literary representation has only recently become an object of academic enquiry. Perhaps a score of German novels on the subject have also appeared, and critical analysis of these is now called for. Following a general outline of the socio-political, philosophical, and ethical issues which climate change raises, and of the particular aesthetic challenges which writing about global warming poses, Ilija Trojanow’s EisTau (Melting Ice, 2011) serves as a basis for discussion of the tensions between confessional and didactic impulses on the one hand, and recognition of the need for an aesthetic facilitating detachment on the other. Resumen Aunque el calentamiento global ha aparecido en la literatura popular americana y británica desde los años 80, su representación literaria no se ha converitdo en objeto de investigación académica hasta recientemente. Quizá una veintena de novelas alemanas sobre el tema también han aparecido, requiriendo así un análisis critico. Siguiendo un resumen general de los asuntos socio-políticos, filosóficos y éticos que el cambio climático ha planteado, y de los desafíos estéticos particulares que surgen al escribir sobre el calentamiento global, la novela EisTau (Melting Ice, 2011) de Ilija Trojanow sirve como base para debatir las tensiones entre los impulsos confesionales y didácticos, por un lado, y sobre el reconocimiento de la necesidad de una estética que facilite el desapego, por otro.
<b>The Ecopoetics of Survival: The <i>Transborder Immigrant Tool</i> and <i>The Desert Survival Series</i></b> // La ecopoética de la supervivencia: <i>Transborder Immigrant Tool</i> y <i>The Desert Survival Series</i>
Authors: Zeiger Melissa Fran 
Published: March 2020

The Desert Survival Series (2010, 2014) by Amy Sara Carroll, a set of poems that forms part of an activist project called the Transborder Immigrant Tool, departs from the methods of both radical political poetry and some avant-gardist forms of aesthetic resistance that rely on a poetics of randomness to challenge the prevailing order. Instead, the DSS employs design—the design of the poetic object revealing other designs—as a political resource. It addresses a group endangered and abjected by the United States government: migrants crossing the Sonora desert. In doing so, it recalls traditional forms such as the pastoral and the georgic in order to reimagine earlier attitudes toward poetic making, hierarchical politics, and the environment. Orienting in their address to migrants, disorienting and counterintuitive with reference to their contemporary poetic context, the poems are of interest for debates around ecopoetics, because they make an intervention in the domains of environmental poetry as well as political activism of the border. Resumen La serie Desert Survival (Supervivencia en el desierto) (2010, 2014) de Amy Sara Carroll, un grupo de poemas dentro del proyecto artivista llamado Transborder Immigrant Tool (La Herramienta del Inmigrante Transfronterizo), se aleja de los métodos tanto de la poesía política más radical como de algunas formas de vanguardistas de resistencia estética dependientes de una poética de lo aleatorio para desafiar el orden predominante. En su lugar, la serie Desert Survival utiliza el diseño—el diseño del objeto poético que revela otros posibles diseños—como una herramienta política. Esta enfocada a un grupo en peligro y vilipendiado por el gobierno de Estados Unidos: los migrantes cruzando el desierto de Sonora. De esta manera, recupera formas tradicionales como el género pastoril y las geórgicas para reimaginar actitudes pasadas hacia la creación poética, la política jerárquica y el medio ambiente. Los poemas están dirigidos a orientar a los migrantes, aunque su vocación en el contexto poético contemporáneo es desorientadora y contraintuitiva. Son poemas interesantes en los debates de lo ecopoético, pues postulan la intervención de la poesía sobre el medio ambiente al igual que sobre el activismo político en la frontera.
Contre-culture et environnementalisme au Québec : Une écosociété à bâtir
Authors: Isabel Mariève 
Published: March 2020

Résumé
En lisant les commentaires de la critique littéraire contemporaine à propos des discours contre-culturels des années 1970, il ressort parfois que l’héritage laissé par ce mouvement au Québec est assez mince. On pourrait conclure que la contre-culture n’a finalement pas laissé de grandes traces dans les discours d’aujourd’hui et qu’elle n’a pas modifié en profondeur ni en surface les discours politiques de la société québécoise. Mais qu’en est-il du vaste mouvement environnemental que l’on observe depuis environ deux décennies? Ne fait-il pas partie, lui aussi, de l’héritage contre-culturel? Dans cet article, j’aimerais suggérer que l’héritage laissé par la contre-culture est à rechercher du côté de l’environnementalisme qui caractérise le 21e siècle. Pour comprendre comment les discours de la contre-culture ont contribué à façonner les discours environnementaux d’aujourd’hui, je propose de centrer mon analyse sur l’idée d’une société utopique à créer, pour montrer que l’héritage contre-culturel se retrouve en grande partie dans l’imaginaire environnemental québécois et plus précisément dans l’idée d’une « écosociété ». À partir de quelques numéros de Mainmise et d’essais de l’époque, il sera possible de montrer la résonnance de ces discours dans la littérature québécoise contemporaine.
The perceived present: What is it, and what is it there for?
Authors: White Peter A. 
Published: March 2020

AbstractIt is proposed that the perceived present is not a moment in time, but an information structure comprising an integrated set of products of perceptual processing. All information in the perceived present carries an informational time marker identifying it as “present”. This marker is exclusive to information in the perceived present. There are other kinds of time markers, such as ordinality (“this stimulus occurred before that one”) and duration (“this stimulus lasted for 50 ms”). These are different from the “present” time marker and may be attached to information regardless of whether it is in the perceived present or not. It is proposed that the perceived present is a very short-term and very high-capacity holding area for perceptual information. The maximum holding time for any given piece of information is ~100 ms: This is affected by the need to balance the value of informational persistence for further processing against the problem of obsolescence of the information. The main function of the perceived present is to facilitate access by other specialized, automatic processes.
Local transformations with a singular wavelet
Authors: Romanchak V. M. 
Published: March 2020

The paper considers a local wavelet transform with a singular basis wavelet. The problem of nonparametric approximation of a function is solved by the use of the sequence of local wavelet transforms. Traditionally believed that the wavelet should have an average equal to zero. Earlier, the author considered singular wavelets when the average value is not equal to zero. As an example, the delta-shaped functions, participated in the estimates of Parzen – Rosenblatt and Nadara – Watson, were used as a wavelet. Previously, a sequence of wavelet transforms for the entire numerical axis and finite interval was constructed for singular wavelets. The paper proposes a sequence of local wavelet transforms, a local wavelet transform is defined, the theorems that formulate the properties of a local wavelet transform are proved. To confirm the effectiveness of the algorithm an example of approximating the function by use of the sum of discrete local wavelet transforms is given.
Comparative study of quality estimation of binary classification
Authors: Starovoitov V. V. , Golub Yu. I. 
Published: March 2020

The paper describes results of analytical and experimental analysis of seventeen functions used for evaluation of binary classification results of arbitrary data. The results are presented by 2×2 error matrices. The behavior and properties of the main functions calculated by the elements of such matrices are studied. Classification options with balanced and imbalanced datasets are analyzed. It is shown that there are linear dependencies between some functions, many functions are invariant to the transposition of the error matrix, which allows us to calculate the estimation without specifying the order in which their elements were written to the matrices.It has been proven that all classical measures such as Sensitivity, Specificity, Precision, Accuracy, F1, F2, GM, the Jacquard index are sensitive to the imbalance of classified data and distort estimation of smaller class objects classification errors. Sensitivity to imbalance is found in the Matthews correlation coefficient and Kohen’s kappa. It has been experimentally shown that functions such as the confusion entropy, the discriminatory power, and the diagnostic odds ratio should not be used for analysis of binary classification of imbalanced datasets. The last two functions are invariant to the imbalance of classified data, but poorly evaluate results with approximately equal common percentage of classification errors in two classes.We proved that the area under the ROC curve (AUC) and the Yuden index calculated from the binary classification confusion matrix are linearly dependent and are the best estimation functions of both balanced and imbalanced datasets.

Prevalence and structure of psychotic disorders in participants of military action
Authors: Pishel V. Ya. , Ilnytska T. Yu. , Drevitska O. O. , Polyvyana M. Yu. 
Published: March 2020

Background. Military psychological trauma is today a very widespread phenomenon, which is an actual and socially significant problem of modern domestic psychiatry. Many of its aspects remain not fully disclosed, in particular, the clinical features of psychotic disorders in combatants. This necessitates the development of modern diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to the optimization of treatment-diagnostic and social-rehabilitation assistance in this category of patients.
Objective. Оn the basis of the analysis of literature data and own research to determine the prevalence and structure of psychotic disorders in participants in participants of military action.
Materials and methods. The analysis of the data of scientific researches and official statistics of the Ministry of Health concerning the prevalence and structure of psychotic disorders in the participants of combat operations is carried out.
Results. It was found high level of comorbidity of a martial psychic trauma with other mental illnesses – up to 75%. Psychotic signs most often appear in the clinic of chronic post-traumatic stress disorder and determine its more severe course, which can be compared with progressive forms of schizophrenia.
Conclusions. Significant prevalence of psychotic symptoms in the event of a military traumatic trauma in combatants indicates the urgent need for further study of signs of high risk of psychosis, as well as their early detection in order to optimize treatment and diagnostic and socio-rehabilitation care for this category of patients.
Clinical-psychological and pathopsychological features of mental disadaptation of students at a medical higher educational institution
Authors: Khaustov M. M. 
Published: March 2020

Background. Education in university is a special period which characterized by a high level of stress and stress. In recent years, the prevalence of adaptation disorders has been growing in the student population, which is a significant medical, psychological and social problem, adversely affecting the effectiveness of future professional activities.
Objective – to develop a system of psychotherapeutic correction and psycho-prophylactic support during the period of professional education on the basis of a systematic approach to studying the mechanisms of formation of mental disadaptation states of medical students.
Materials and methods. A comprehensive examination of 412 students of II – V courses of the Kharkov National Medical University of both sexes and aged 17–22 years was conducted. All examined were divided into three groups: 1 group - 215 students - were residents of eastern Ukraine; 2 group - 87 students - were residents of the Lugansk and Donetsk regions, who entered the KNMU before the start of the ATO; 3 group - 110 students - were immigrants from the anti-terrorist operation zone. We used such research methods: clinical and psychopathological; anamnestic; psychodiagnostic and statistical.
Results. It has been established that the structure of adaptation disorders is represented by depressive, neurotic, anxious and dissociative syndrome complexes. Based on the obtained data, we have developed a system of medical and psychological support for a medical student during the education period, which provides for the use of complex psychotherapeutic, psycho-educational and psychoprophylactic actions.
Conclusions. The effectiveness of the proposed system of medical and psychological support has been proved. The positive dynamics of the mental state, the rapid reduction of anxious and depressive symptoms, the normalization of the emotional state, the increase in the psychophysical activity of students, the change of coping strategies to constructive ones have been established.
