Performance, Paradigms of Visual Culture and The Matrices of Representation: Anna Deavere Smith’s on The Road
Authors: Biju C.S. 
Published: May 2021

This paper attempts to put radically in to question the hegemonic choices of representation in western visual culture by examining Anna Deavere Smith’s performance series On the Road: A Search for American Character. What is brought to the sharp focus of this study is the logic of perpetuating the conventional categories of race, ethnicity, gender and age in performance – a logic that prevails in the mainstream media; more specifically in theatre – and the unmasking of these categories in representation.
Then with a shout we rushed upon him and locked our arms about him; but the ancient god had not forgotten his craft and cunning. He became in turn a bearded lion, a snake, a panther, a monstrous boar; then running water, then a towering and leafy tree, but we kept our hold, unflinching and undismayed, and in the end this master of dreaded secrets began to tire. So he broke into speech ... .

Authors: FUEL REVELO FABIÁN 
Published: May 2021

El presente trabajo se encuadra en el proceso de transformación que viene desarrollando el Ejército Ecuatoriano y describe la investigación realizada para establecer una base para la Línea de Transformación (LDT) “entrenamiento”, tomando en cuenta el modelo de entrenamiento actual comparado con el de otros países; la cultura física, con sus respectivos promedios obtenidos tanto de oficiales como de tropa, y los centros de entrenamiento disponibles en el ejército. Una vez establecida esta línea base en función de la información obtenida en el Comando de Operaciones Terrestre se conceptualiza la LDT “entrenamiento” como: “Mejorar los actuales modelos de entrenamiento, cultura física y entrenamiento físico militar individual y colectivo, a través de modernas metodologías y la implementación de centros de entrenamiento que permitan incrementar el alistamiento operacional de las unidades militares para hacer frente a los escenarios actuales y futuros”. Establecido el diagnóstico, se proponen objetivos y estrategias para las diferentes etapas que conforman el plan de transformación, el cual determina cuatro períodos iniciando en el año 2019 y concluyendo en el 2033; finalmente, se determina un gráfico de convergencia entre el relacionamiento de la LDT “entrenamiento” con otras LDT establecidas en el Plan de Transformación de Ejército. La presente investigación descubre aspectos muy importantes que, plasmados en los objetivos y estrategias, fortalecerá al Plan de Transformación de Ejército, lo cual permitirá diseñar programas y proyectos en beneficio del alistamiento operacional y con ello el cumplimiento de la misión del Ejército. La LDT “entrenamiento” definitivamente es uno de los pilares fundamentales de la transformación. Solamente la voluntad, compromiso y continuidad del proyecto permitirá la transformación del Ejército para estar en mejores condiciones de enfrentar los nuevos desafíos a la seguridad y defensa.
Assessing the role and significance of project selection by the contractors in the Saudi construction industry
Authors: Bageis Abdulrahman , Alsulamy Saleh 
Published: May 2021

Abstract

Introduction
Construction companies hold great significance in Saudi Arabia due to new developments taking place in the region. A project automatically turns out better if it has been selected based on the level of expertise and resources available to the construction company and vice versa.

Purpose
The study aims to investigate the importance of project selection by the contractors within the Saudi construction industry.

Methodology
The study has employed a quantitative research design to conduct a survey through the administration of questionnaire. A total of 46 employees from construction companies were selected. A questionnaire was distributed among maintenance contractors, contractors, and construction contractors.

Findings
The findings have shown that mostly organizations were unclassified or classified under the fifth category (projects valuing AED10,000,000 or lesser) (34.8%). Most of the respondents (94.4%) agreed that consideration of the project selection is important. Moreover, there is a positive correlation between the level of importance given to the project selection and the organizational size of the respondents. Success factors play an important role in the project selection phase.

Practical implications
Careful project selection is the first step toward the success of the construction company, so it needs to be carried out carefully.
Akustisches Gedächtnis und bruitistisches Gedenken an den Ersten Weltkrieg: das Album Lament der Einstürzenden Neubauten (2014)
Authors: Häcker Andreas 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
Zum Gedenken an den Ersten Weltkrieg wurden in Belgien einzigartige Musikwerke in Auftrag gegeben wie Lament, Ypres oder Shell Shock, a requiem of war, eine Oper über das posttraumatische Syndrom der Frontsoldaten. Für die Gedenkfeiern in Westflandern hat die Berliner Experimental-Band Einstürzende Neubauten um Blixa Bargeld die Performance Lament im Auftrag der Regierung Westflanderns konzipiert. Lament erschien zunächst als Studioalbum, die Weltpremiere fand am 8. November 2014 in Diksmuide statt, es folgte alsbald eine Tournee mit rund 30 Konzerten in Europa und Australien bis 2018. Obwohl die Wahl deutscher Underground-Musiker verwirrend für manchen belgischen Musikkritiker sein mochte, ist das Album durch eine bedeutende Recherchearbeit geprägt: Es verbindet bruitistische Komposition und historisches Material aus Tonarchiven. Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es zu untersuchen, welchen Beitrag die Musiker zur Erinnerungsarbeit an den Ersten Weltkrieg leisten, welche Herausforderungen ein Auftragswerk stellt und wie die Erwartungen des Publikums erfüllt werden.
THE INFLUENCE OF THREE MEN IN EDNA PONTELLIER’S LIFE IN THE AWAKENING BY KATE CHOPIN: A Psychoanalytic Study
Authors: Asmarani Ratna 
Published: May 2021

This paper focuses on the life of Edna Pontellier, the female main character in Kate Chopin’s The Awakening. The purpose is to analyse the influence of the three men in Edna Pontellier’s life. The analysis is done using the concept of id, ego, and superego from Freudian psychoanalysis. The result shows that the first man in Edna Pontellier’s life, Mr. Pontellier/her husband, serves as the superego that always directs Edna’s ego. The second man, Robert Lebrun, is her lover who encourages her to win back her ego which makes her able to begin resisting the superego’s demands. The third man, Alcee Arobin, is the woman-seducer who arouses and fullfils her id in the form of sexual desires which has been repressed so far. However, the psychological conflicts that she has to endure lead to her decision to end her own life in her own way. Key words: id, ego, superego, Freudian psychoanalysis.

Purpose. To develop a methodology for assessing the degree of cerebrovascular insufficiency in patients with moyamoya angiopathy (AMM) based on measurement of cerebral blood flow (CBF) and determination the presence of arterial transit artifact (ATA) using MR method of arterial spin labeling (ASL).Materials and methods. The study included 47 patients with AMM who underwent 148 MR studies in PCASL mode (296 hemispheres), of which 47 (94 hemispheres) were done before surgical treatment. On received perfusion maps 7 areas of interest (ROI) were manually set in the gray and white matter of the brain using “Fusion” technique outside the ATA zones. The CBF values at the central point of the ATA were estimated. In the preoperative stage, 47 patients underwent direct angiography to assess the stage of the disease according to Suzuki, the presence and severity of leptomeningeal and transdural collaterals and MR angiography to assess the stage of the disease according to Houkin and the level of ICA stenosis. Statistical processing included univariate analysis of variance (ANOVA) and chi-square test (IBM SPSS Statistics 23).Results. ATA was detected in 77% of studies (69% of hemispheres). The average minimum CBF in ATA was 120.2 ± 21.1 ml/min/ 100 g at the lower bound of the confidence interval of 117.43 ml/min / 100 g. The average maximum CBF in ATA was 234.9. Depending on the CBF values in the MCA territory and the presence of ATA, 4 degrees of perfusion deficiency were identified: degree 0 (CBF = 64.5 ± 16.2 ml/min / 100 g, without ATA) corresponded to the stage of “compensation” of cerebral blood flow, degree 1 (CBF = 61.5 ± 16.6 ml/min/ 100 g, with ATA) – “subcompensation”, degree 2 (CBF = 26.5 ± 7.2 ml/min/100 g, with ATA) – “initial decompensation”, degree 3 (CBF = 16.0 ± 4.7 ml/min / 100 g, without ATA) – “decompensation”. The highlighted degrees statistically significantly differed among themselves in all ROIs (p < 0.0001). More severe perfusion deficiency corresponded to the more developed stages of AMM according to Suzuki and Houkin, proximal stenosis of the ICA (p < 0.0001), and more severe neurological deficit (p < 0.02). The occurrence of ATA reliably reflected the presence of leptomeningeal collaterals (p < 0.001).Conclusions. The proposed method for assessing patterns of ASL perfusion has a good agreement with the stage of the disease, the presence of sources of collateral circulation, the severity of neurological deficit and can be used to assess cerebrovascular insufficiency in patients with AMM.

Neuroendocrine tumors (NEТ) are a heterogeneous group of neoplasms of various locations originating from the APUD system cells with biologically active properties. Although immunohistochemical assay for Ki-67 has been proved to have prognostic significance in GEP-NENs, pitfalls may lead to misjudgment of the tumor grades, prognosis and during treatment planning due to the presence of cells with varying degrees of differentiation and proliferative activity within a single lesion, as well as the entire neoplastic process. These features can affect the results of imaging and therapy planning.An increase in the number of somatostatin receptors on the surface of membrane cells, as well as an increase in glycolysis may occur in NETs. These phenomena play role when choosing imaging methods, as well as in treatment planning.Combined dual-tracer imaging, specifically PET/CT or SPECT/CT using labeled somatostatin analogues can be used in intermediate assessment of cellular heterogeneity in the entire neoplastic process in NENs and help to minimize diagnostic pitfalls listed above.We present an observation of a patient with metastatic GEP-NEN of unknown primary in which 18F-FDG PET/CT and 99mTc-HYNIC-TOC SPECT/CT were performed for initial staging. In the framework of this, aspects of use of dual-tracer radionuclide imaging in patients with NENs are widely discussed.

The purpose of the study. To analyze possibilities of computed tomography (CT) for esophageal injuries and their complications as part of a differentiated approach to the choice of a minimally invasive treatment method.Materials and methods. The results of CT scans were analyzed in 25 patients with esophageal injuries of various etiologies who were treated at the N.V. Sklifosovsky Research Institute of SP in the period 2019–2020. CT was performed with oral and intravenous bolus contrast, primarily at admission and in dynamics, a total of 77 studies.Results. In all cases, direct and indirect CT signs of esophageal damage were detected, and the degree of involvement of surrounding organs and tissues in the pathological process was assessed. Based on the data obtained, the following variants of esophageal damage and its complications were identified: intramural esophageal hematoma (2); rupture of the thoracic esophagus without the development of purulent complications (2); rupture of the thoracic esophagus complicated by the development of mediastinitis (4); rupture of the thoracic esophagus with the development of mediastinitis and pleural empyema (13); rupture of the cervical calving of the esophagus, complicated by phlegmon of the neck and descending mediastinitis (4). Different patient management tactics were used for each variant. Thus, the selection and sequence of minimally invasive interventions, such as thoracoscopic sanitation mediastinal and pleural cavity, esophageal stenting, percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (CEG) and endoscopic vacuum aspiration system (E-VAS), were carried out taking into account CT data, including observations in dynamics.Conclusion. CT scan for esophageal injuries allows you to get complete information about both the nature of esophageal damage and its complications, to determine their type, localization and volume. CT data allow us to justify a minimally invasive approach in the treatment of esophageal injuries, to determine the order of interventions. CT studies performed in dynamics allow us to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment and to carry out timely correction of tactics.

Acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding (AUGIB) is the most common GI emergency observed with mortality of 6-10% overall. The authors aimed to assess the pharmacotherapy of upper gastrointestinal bleeding along with its drug utility and their performance. A total of 120 patients were enrolled meeting the criteria and observed that the main cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding was found to be esophageal varices followed by duodenal ulcers.The major contributing factor for UGI bleed was alcohol and smoking. The study revealed that males are predominantly being affected with UGI bleed; probable reasons may be habitual behaviour of the patients. Majority of the population who are affected were associated with comorbidities like hypertension, cirrhosis, jaundice, hepatitis, ulcers and diabetes mellitus. Portal hypertension was the major complication seen among the study population, followed by Jaundice and Ascites.The most common cause of portal hypertension is cirrhosis of liver. As an initial evaluation modality of all our UGI bleed patients were done with UGI endoscopy for both therapeutic and diagnostic purposes. The most commonly prescribed drugs were anti-secretory agents [pantoprazole], mucosal protectants [sucralfate], vasoactive agents [terlipressin], antibiotics [rifampicin, ceftriaxone, metronidazole]. It is observed in the study with high dose of alcohol consumption results into serious complications and increasing mortality and morbidity. In the modern era of medical management, it would be better to deal with rational drug prescription in association with clinical pharmacologist suggestions during medical rounds by clinician.

A Lesson Learned? The Image of Poland during World War II Presented by Recent German Literature and Its Perception in Public Discourses
Authors: Hiemer Elisa-Maria 
Published: May 2021

Based on Wolf Schmid’s Narratology, this article depicts the influence of the so-called abstract dimension on the reception of Kevin Vennemann’s Nahe Jedenew (Close to Jedenew, 2005) and Matthias Nawrat’s Die vielen Tode unseres Opas Jurek (Numerous Deaths of Grandpa Jurek, 2015). The abstract dimension – being, among others, the result of personal beliefs and individual “literary experiences” – helps to understand contradictory opinions about the same work and depends often (but not exclusively) on different historical knowledge and awareness. The reception in the media and academic discourse reveals schemata that cannot be explained by the text alone. I argue that the recipient is highly influenced by the author’s personal background, although it is not about autobiographies – which clearly reduces options for interpretation.

Pożegnalne listy Mariny Cwietajewej w tłumaczeniach na język polski – unisono czy polifonicznie?
Authors: Ojcewicz Grzegorz 
Published: May 2021

The subject of the author’s considerations are three letters written by Marina Tsvetaeva before her death. All three letters were subject to a translation analysis. The author focuses here on transformation procedures in order to discover the strategies applied by each translator and to answer the question: do these renditions create a poetic unison or a translator’s polyphonic version? Following the analysis, it is argued that, by principle, the Polish versions of farewell letters written by Marina Tsvetaeva provide very similar arrangements with regard to their content and form, which leads to the conclusion that these translations represent the poetics in unison. However, at times, especially in the version translated by Anna Piwkowska there is the visible polyphonic tendency of disparities between the target text and the end result.
"DOSTAŁEM ZAPROSZENIE NA KARNAWAŁ STRACHU/ MAM SIĘ TAM UDAĆ ZA ŻYCIA.” O OBECNOŚCI SACRUM W LIRYCZNEJ TWÓRCZOŚCI DARIUSZA DEKANSKIEGO
Authors: Borek Bartłomiej 
Published: May 2021

Streszczenie:
Idea sacrum w lirycznej twórczości Dariusza Dekańskiego to konglomerat wielu składowych. Zarówno rzeczywistości konsystencjalnej, jak i tej sensytywnej – wyobrażonej, percypowanej na drodze synestezji. W prezentowanym artykule, pełniącym rolę asumptu do dalszych badań nad poetycką aktywnością autora Saudade, zwrócono szczególną uwagę na więź człowieka z Bogiem, kontakt z sacrum, przejawiającymi się w wewnętrznych przeżyciach podmiotu lirycznego, bezustannie szukającego swojego miejsca w świecie. Aby zbliżyć się do zrozumienia działań bohatera tej poezji wykorzystano przede wszystkim instrumentarium oferowane przez metodologie badań sacrum (krytyka ekumeniczna oraz krytyka teologiczna).
