El mito y su influencia en el vínculo emocional entre el espectador y la obra en el teatro musical del Siglo de Oro: recursos mitológicos en "Ícaro y Dédalo" de Melchor Fernández de León
Authors: Rozenbergaite Ieva Emilija 
Published: January 2021

El presente artículo propone un análisis del tratamiento de los recursos mitológicos en Ícaro y Dédalo, de Melchor Fernández de León, y su posible influencia en el nexo psíquico entre el público y la obra. El método de trabajo consiste en la aplicación de la noción de «distancia psíquica», un concepto filosófico orientado al involucramiento emocional en un momento de apreciación estética. Con la ayuda de esta herramienta, me dispongo a examinar los impulsos psíquicos producidos por el uso de la materia mitológica en la elaboración del argumento, los personajes y los símbolos de la zarzuela aurisecular. El objetivo final del trabajo es, sirviéndose del ejemplo de Ícaro y Dédalo, detectar los reflejos de la mentalidad de la sociedad del siglo XVII latentes en la predilección por la temática mitológica en el teatro musical de la época.

The Dissemination of Žemaitė’s Literary Fiction in the Education System in 1905–1914
Authors: Bleizgienė Ramunė 
Published: January 2021

The article describes the syllabi of Lithuanian language subject for public and private schools prepared in 1905-1914 for the developing modern Lithuanian education system with the aim to determine the extent of representation of Žemaitė’s literary fiction. Referring to previous works by V. Pupšys, V. Pukienė, M. Karčiauskienė, A. Piročkinas and analysis of their sources, 9 syllabi of Lithuanian language and their recommended textbooks have been described in this article. The analysis has shown that Žemaitė first established herself in the Lithuanian education system as the author of the textbook Rinkinėlis vaikams, first published in 1904 and intended for primary schools. Žemaitė emerges as the author of short stories and a co-author of dramas for the first time in 1912 in the syllabus published by J. Kairiūkštis. The attention allocated to her and the list of her works is the same as for the majority of other fiction authors of the time. In 1912 M. Biržiška’s project of the Lithuanian language syllabus Žemaitė is referred to as one of the four women prose writers of the end of the 19th century among G. Petkevičaitė-Bitė, Šatrijos Ragana, and Lazdynų Pelėda.
The Literary Experience of God in Death’s Vicinity in the Works of Freedom Fighter Bronius Krivickas
Authors: Čiočytė Dalia 
Published: January 2021

Bronius Krivickas (1919–1952), a Lithuanian poet and fiction writer, a fighter against the Soviet occupation of Lithuania, reflects carefully the main ideas of existentialism: Søren Kierkegaard’s concept of individual freedom, Martin Heidegger’s notion of being-toward-death, the concept of a limiting situation developed by Karl Jaspers. In the worldview of B. Krivickas’s literary works, these ideas are associated with the context of Catholic philosophy and theology.This article investigates the notion of God within the existential limiting situation (especially the situation of death) in the literary works by B. Krivickas. The main critical perspective is the theology of literature.
In the context of the dramatic experience of World War II, B. Krivickas’s short stories, a symbolist play A Tale About a Princess, and poetical prose works interpret God as being perceived through human conscience and a human longing for spiritual harmony. God is being thought of as the ultimate metaphysical mystery.In the period of Lithuanian fights for freedom, B. Krivickas’s poetry reveals an intense partisan self-consciousness. The poetry interprets the fight against the Soviet aggressor as a sacrifice for the nation’s freedom and compares it indirectly with the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ. According to the logic of existentialism, B Krivickas’s poetry claims that a human being is absolutely free, even if this means to choose freedom at the cost of life.God becomes the personal you for the fighter seen in B. Krivickas’s poetry. The main theme of the fighter’s dialogue with God is an existential complaint. The fighter experiences deep theodic dilemmas. He has no doubts about the righteousness of the war against the Soviet occupation, but he has deep doubts about the divine permission for evil to exist in the world. The faith of the poetic fighter is just his will to believe, his desire to believe. Thus the poetic figure of the fighter acquires both patriotic and religious heroism.

OBJECTIVES:To identify predictors of becoming a daily cigarette smoker over the course of 4 years.METHODS:We identified 12- to 24-year-olds at wave 1 of the US Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health Study and determined ever use, age at first use, and daily use through wave 4 for 12 tobacco products.RESULTS:Sixty-two percent of 12- to 24-year-olds (95% confidence interval [CI]: 60.1% to 63.2%) tried tobacco, and 30.2% (95% CI: 28.7% to 31.6%) tried ≥5 tobacco products by wave 4. At wave 4, 12% were daily tobacco users, of whom 70% were daily cigarette smokers (95% CI: 67.4% to 73.0%); daily cigarette smoking was 20.8% in 25- to 28-year-olds (95% CI: 18.9% to 22.9%), whereas daily electronic cigarette (e-cigarette) vaping was 3.3% (95% CI: 2.4% to 4.4%). Compared with single product triers, the risk of progressing to daily cigarette smoking was 15 percentage points higher (adjusted risk difference [aRD] 15%; 95% CI: 12% to 18%) among those who tried ≥5 products. In particular, e-cigarette use increased the risk of later daily cigarette smoking by threefold (3% vs 10%; aRD 7%; 95% CI: 6% to 9%). Daily smoking was 6 percentage points lower (aRD −6%; 95% CI: −8% to −4%) for those who experimented after age 18 years.CONCLUSIONS:Trying e-cigarettes and multiple other tobacco products before age 18 years is strongly associated with later daily cigarette smoking. The recent large increase in e-cigarette use will likely reverse the decline in cigarette smoking among US young adults.

Published: January 2021

OBJECTIVES:
To examine the contribution of early life factors and preschool- and school-aged language abilities to children’s 11-year language and academic outcomes.

METHODS:
Participants (N = 839) were from a prospective community cohort study of 1910 infants recruited at 8 to 10 months of age. Early life factors included a combination of child (prematurity, birth weight), family (socioeconomic disadvantage, family history of language difficulties), and maternal factors (education, vocabulary, and age). Language (standardized assessment of receptive and expressive skills) and academic (national assessment) outcomes at 11 years were predicted by using a series of multivariable regression models.

RESULTS:
Early life factors explained 11% to 12% of variance in language scores at 11 years. The variance explained increased to 47% to 64% when language scores from 2 to 7 years were included. The largest increase in variance explained was with 4-year language scores. The same early life factors explained 13% to 14% of academic scores at 11 years, with increases to 43% to 54% when language scores from 2 to 11 years were included. Early life factors adequately discriminated between children with typical and low language scores but were much better discriminators of children with typical and low academic scores. When earlier language scores were added to models then the area under the curve increased to 0.9 and above.

CONCLUSIONS:
Children’s language outcomes at 11 years are accurately predicted by their 4-year language ability and their academic outcomes at 11 years are predicted by early family and home environment factors. Children with low language abilities at 11 years consistently performed more poorly on national assessments of literacy and numeracy.
Recovery of continuous functions from their Fourier coefficients known with error
Authors: Pozharska K.V. , Pozharskyi O.A. 
Published: January 2021

The problem of optimal recovery is considered for functions from their Fourier coefficients known with error. In a more general statement,this problem for the classes of smooth and atalytic functions defined on various compact manifolds can be found in the classical paper byG.G. Magaril-Il'yaev, K.Y. Osipenko.Namely, the paper is devoted to the recovery of continuous real-valued functions $y$ of one variable from the classes $W^{\psi}_{p}$, $1 \leq p< \infty$,that are defined in terms of generalized smoothness $\psi$ from their Fourier coefficients with respect to some complete orthonormal in the space $L_2$ system$\Phi = \{ \varphi_k \}_{k=1}^{\infty}$ of continuous functions, that are blurred by noise.Assume that for function $y$ we know the values $y_k^{\delta}$ of their noisy Fourier coefficients, besides $y_k^{\delta} = y_k + \delta \xi_k$, $k = 1,2, \dots$,where $y_k$ are the corresponding Fourier coefficients, $\delta \in (0,1)$, and $\xi = (\xi_k)_{k=1}^{\infty}$ is a noise.Additionally let the functions from the system $\Phi$ be continuous and satisfy the condition $\| \varphi_k \|_{C}\leq C_1 k^{\beta}$, $k=1,2,\dots$,where $C_1>0$, $\beta \geq 0$ are some constants, and $\| \cdot\|_{C}$ is the standart norm of the space $C$ of continuous on the segment $[0,1]$ functions.Under certain conditions on parameter $\psi$, we obtain order estimates of the approximation errors of functions from the classes$$W^{\psi}_{p} = \left\{ y \in L_2\colon \| y \|^p_{W^{\psi}_{p}} = \sum\limits_{k=1}^{\infty} \psi^p(k) |y_k|^p \leq 1 \right\}, \quad 1 \leq p< \infty,$$in metric of the space $C$ by the so-called$\Lambda$-method of series summation that is defined by the number triangular matrix $\Lambda = \{ \lambda_k^n \}_{k=1}^n$, $n=n(\delta) \in \mathbb{N}$,with some restrictions on its elements.Note, that we extend the known results [8, 7] to a more wide spectrum of the classesof functions and for a more general restrictions on the noise level.In our results a case is considered when the noise is stronger than those in the space $l_2$ of real number sequences, but not stochastic.
Introduction: Literary Texts and their Translations as an Object of Research
Authors: Kolehmainen Leena , Penttilä Esa , Van Poucke Piet 
Published: January 2021

This special issue of the International Journal of Literary Linguistics offers seven state-of-the-art contributions on the current linguistic study of literary translation. Although the articles are based on similar data – literary source texts and their translations – they focus on diverse aspects of literary translation, study a range of linguistic phenomena and utilize different methodologies. In other words, it is an important goal of this special issue to illuminate the current diversity of possible approaches in the linguistic study of translated literary texts within the discipline of translation studies. At the same time, new theoretical and empirical insights are opened to the study of the linguistic phenomena chosen by the authors of the articles and their representation or use in literary texts and translations. The analyzed features range from neologisms to the category of passive and from spoken language features to the representation of speech and multilingualism in writing. Therefore, the articles in this issue are not only relevant for the study of literary translation or translation theory in general, but also for the disciplines of linguistics and literary studies – or most importantly, for the cross-disciplinary co-operation between these three fields of study.The common theme that all these articles share is how the translation process shapes, transfers and changes the linguistic properties of literary texts as compared to their sources texts, other translations or non-translated literary texts in the same language and how this question can be approached in research. All articles provide new information about the forces that direct and affect translators’ textual choices and the previously formulated hypotheses about the functioning of such forces. The articles illustrate how translators may perform differently from authors and how translators’ and authors’ norms may diverge at different times and in different cultures. The question of how translation affects the linguistic properties of literary translations is approached from the viewpoint of previously proposed claims or hypotheses about translation. In the following, we will introduce these viewpoints for readers who are not familiar with the recent developments in translation studies. At the same time, we will shortly present the articles in this issue.
Death to Neologisms: Domestication in the English Retranslations of Thomas Mann’s Der Tod in Venedig
Authors: Prinzl Marlies Gabriele 
Published: January 2021

Thomas Mann’s Der Tod in Venedig (1912) owes much of its fame in English to a translation from 1928 by Helen Tracy Lowe-Porter. The novella however has in fact been translated many times – first by Burke (1924, with a revised edition following in 1970), and, after Lowe-Porter, by Luke (1988), Koelb (1994), Appelbaum (1995), Neugroschel (1998), Chase (1999), Heim (2004), Doege (2007) and Hansen & Hansen (2012). Most of these versions are neither known to readers nor discussed in academic literature. This paper, which comes as part of a larger study on linguistic creativity in Der Tod in Venedig, focuses on the use of neologisms by Mann and what happens to them in (re)translation. Relying on a digital corpus composed of the complete set of English retranslations and a corpus-based methodology, the paper argues that, despite the extended time period between the publications and different translation conditions, neologisms are treated uniformly by the translators. Mann’s coinages are nearly always obliterated through normalisation and, if preserved, demonstrate less creativity overall than in the ST, raising questions about the Retranslation Hypothesis (RH) which proposes that early TT versions tend to domesticate while later ones increasingly foreignise.
‘He just isn’t my Frost’: Television adaptation of R.D. Wingfield’s Jack Frost.
Authors: Statham Simon 
Published: January 2021

Abstract
This article presents an analysis of the police television series A Touch of Frost (Yorkshire Television, 1992) and the crime novels of Rodney Wingfield upon which it is based. In analysing characterisation of the protagonist of each version, Inspector Jack Frost, data is drawn from the pilot episode of the series and Wingfield’s debut novel Frost at Christmas (1984). Wingfield was less than impressed with television’s version of Frost, stating, ‘He just isn’t my Frost’. Given that a core motivation for stylistics is to ‘support initial impressions in various extracts’ readings’ and to ‘describe the readers’ response with some precision’ (Gregoriou, 2007:19), this article offers a linguistic explanation for the response of an author to the adaptation of his own work. The famously reticent Wingfield did not elaborate in detail on why he disapproved of the television version of Frost, although several critics contended that Wingfield felt television had ‘softened’ his creation. This article will analyse each version in terms of the elements of narrative outlined by Simpson and Montgomery (1995) and will in turn suggest an elaboration of this model by integrating frameworks for the analysis of impoliteness (Culpeper, 1996; 2010), examining pragmatic elements of Frost’s dialogue. In investigating whether television’s Jack Frost is ‘softer’ than the character envisaged by Wingfield free direct speech and accompanying physical behaviour in novel and television adaptation are analysed, focussing on whether the perceived softness of the latter has been partly achieved by making the speech of Frost less impolite on television.

Actuotaphonomic model of the mollusk fauna of Laguna de Mandinga, Veracruz, Mexico
Authors: Gío-Argáez F. Raúl , Gómez-Espinosa Catalina , Romero Saraí 
Published: January 2021

Introduction: The taphonomic attributes of a faunal assemblage provide information about which agents affect both, the distribution and preservation of ancient or newly-formed biogenic materials, during their depositional and post-depositional processes.
Thus, actuotaphonomy is a valuable tool to the reconstruction of fossil communities, as it establishes analogies between observable processes in the present and those that happened in the past.
Objective:The taphonomic attributes of a marginal marine environment were analyzed, in order to assess the origin of fragmentation, bioerosion and incrustation processes and the role of these characteristics in the deterioration of current sediment accumulations of mollusks (gastropods and bivalves), to generate an actuotaphonomic model that could be applyable to analogous ecosystems to Laguna de Mandinga (Mandinga Lagoon), in Veracruz, Mexico.
Methods: The material came from a shell-remain accumulation called "El Conchal". A batch of 1,697.9 g was processed, selecting 1,165 complete specimens, of which 5 genera of bivalves and 4 genera of gastropods were identified. Results: The taphonomic analysis showed that fragmentation and bioerosion have a medium attribute, which may be due to energy, constant rework and exhumation of the remains at the lagoon's water-sediment interface; three biogeneous agents were identified: Entobia isp, Oichnus and Caulostrepsi, being Caulostrepsi the less abundant. The incrustation showed of poor degree since the ecosystem intrinsic conditions did not allow many encrusting organisms to grow properly, however, these organisms are represented by calcareous tubes of serpulid polychaetes, bryozoans with calcareous skeleton and barnacles.
Urbanization, habitat extension and spatial pattern, threaten a Costa Rican endemic bird
Authors: Muñoz Pablo , García-Rodríguez Adri´án , Sandoval Luis 
Published: January 2021

Introduction: The migration of people from rural environments to cities has accelerated urbanization. This has modified the landscape as well as the ecological processes and communities in these areas. The Costa Rican endemic Cabanis´s Ground-Sparrow (Melozone cabanisi) is a species of limited distribution restricted to the Gran Area Metropolitana, which is the biggest urban settlement of the country. This area has experimented and still experiment an ongoing fragmentation and loss of habitat of the areas used by this species (i.e., coffee plantations, shrubs, and thickets). Objective: Determine the effects of urbanization on habitat abundance and spatial pattern for the occurrence of the Cabanis´s Ground-Sparrow. Methods: We modeled the area of potentially suitable habitat for the Cabanis´s Ground-Sparrow in Costa Rica using occurrence and bioclimatic data. Then, we estimated the actual suitable habitat using the potentially suitable habitat and land cover type layers. Finally, we analyzed the connectivity among the actual suitable habitat patches using single-patch and multi-patch approaches. Results: From the area of potentially suitable habitat estimated by the bioclimatic model, 74 % were urban areas that are unsuitable for Cabanis´s Ground-Sparrow. The largest suitable patches within urban areas were coffee plantations; which also were crucial for maintaining connectivity between habitat patches along the species’ range. Conclusions: To preserve and protect the endemic Cabanis´s Ground-Sparrow these areas must be taken into consideration by decision-makers in the present and future management plans. We recommend avoiding change shrubs and thickets to urban cover to preserve the occurrence of the endemic Cabanis´s Ground-Sparrow, and implement a program for the payment of environmental services to landholders, supported by the local governments, to protect those habitats in urban contexts. Finally, this is a tool that will help to detect which habitats within heavily urbanized areas are the most important to ensure different species conservation.
Characterization and cytotoxic activity on glial cells of alkaloid-enriched extracts from pods of the plants Prosopis flexuosa and Prosopis nigra (Fabaceae)
Authors: Cholich Luciana Andrea , Pistán María Elena , Torres Ana María , Ortega Hugo Héctor , Gardner Dale R. , Bustillo Soledad 
Published: January 2021

Introduction: Prosopis spp. pods have shown to be a potential source of protein and energy in livestock. However, prolonged ingestion of some of these species produces neurological symptoms in ruminants. Objective: In the present study, the alkaloid content and the in vitro neurotoxic activity of alkaloid enriched-extracts from P. flexuosa and P. nigra pods were determined in order to elucidate the mechanism of animal poisoning caused by these species. Methods: The main alkaloids present in both extracts were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (HPLC-HRMS). The cytotoxic activity of Prosopis alkaloid enriched-extracts in primary mixed glial cell culture was assessed by phase contrast microscopy and using neutral red, and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity assays. Results: Juliprosine and juliprosopine were identified in P. flexuosa pods, while the absence of these alkaloids in P. nigra was confirmed. Both extracts (5-30 μg/mL) induced in a dose dependent manner, morphological alterations, such as swelling, enlargement and detachment from the culture surface. Consistent with this, decrease in cell viability and release of LDH 48 hours after exposure, revealed that P. flexuosa pods was significantly more cytotoxic than P. nigra. Conclusions: The present study suggest that the cytotoxic effect displayed by both extracts are due to the alkaloid content. However, the presence of the alkaloids juliprosine and juliprosopine in P. flexuosa could explain the greater cytotoxicity on glial cells with respect to P. nigra that was not shown to contain these alkaloids.
Klasyczna koncepcja postępu w ujęciu Roberta Spaemanna
Authors: Kożuchowski Józef 
Published: January 2021

W artykule zaprezentowano wybrane aspekty klasycznej koncepcji postępu w rozumieniu Roberta Spaemanna. Koncepcję tę wybitny niemiecki myśliciel rozwijał w dyskusji z innymi wizjami postępu, takimi jak modernizm, naturalizm, marksizm, transhumanizm. Wspólna jest dla nich nowożytna idea, zgodnie z którą ciągle wzmagająca się naukowa dominacja nad naturą i wskutek tego również nad człowiekiem oznacza postęp. Taka jednak wizja stoi w sprzeczności z właściwym sensem postępu. Jest on realizowany wówczas, gdy dokonuje się w harmonii z teleologiczną naturą bytów.Wedle wspomnianych wizji postęp jest procesem koniecznym i nieskończonym. Szczególną zaś rolę w określaniu jego dynamiki odgrywa współczesne przyrodoznawstwo z charakterystyczną dla niego tendencją progresywnej instrumentalizacji natury. Spaemann słusznie poddaje ją krytyce. O tym, czy rzeczywiście dokonuje się postęp, rozstrzygają odpowiednie jego kryteria. Wśród nich filozof wskazuje i rozwija kryteria metafizyczne, etyczne (zarówno w ich negatywnym, jak i pozytywnym brzmieniu) oraz teologiczne. Jego zdaniem postęp zakłada moralnie dobre ulepszenia i sytuuje bytowanie człowieka w perspektywie nadziei, motywującej nieprzerwanie do doskonalenia siebie i świata. W artykule podjęto również próbę określenia aktualności, specyfiki i oryginalności analiz niemieckiego myśliciela.
