« Baisier » et « extorquez »
Authors: Simon Maryse 
Published: October 2022

« Baisier » et « extorquez ». Les sorciers de Paris du XIVe au XVIIe siècle — Paris n’avait pas été étudiée jusqu’à présent en tant que territoire spécifique de sorcellerie à l’époque moderne. Le contexte urbain de la capitale du royaume montre des spécificités avec notamment l’importance des questions de sexe, d’amour et d’argent. La relative rareté des accusations de sorcellerie depuis le XIVe siècle jusqu’à la décriminalisation de la sorcellerie en 1682 peut s’expliquer par une certaine clémence affichée par la cour du Parlement de Paris, favorisée par un entrelacs de juridictions seigneuriales mais aussi par une proximité avec la cour férue de magie et avec une université qui parfois dédiabolise ces affaires. Les médecins participent du changement de perception de la sorcière, malgré l’influence du philosophe, juge et démonologue Jean Bodin qui veut au contraire convaincre de la dangerosité de l’engeance diabolique. Et les sorciers finissent par apparaître à la fin du XVIIe siècle comme des escrocs monnayant la crédulité des Parisiens. Mais cette étude toujours en cours de la sorcellerie parisienne peut encore révéler d’autres conclusions.
« La grande tyrannie et le terrible pouvoir du diable sur certaines femmes de Thisted »

« La grande tyrannie et le terrible pouvoir du diable sur certaines femmes de Thisted ». Le dernier cas de possession démoniaque au Danemark 1696-1699) — Cet article étudie la dernière chasse aux sorcières qui eut lieu au Danemark et se termina paradoxalement par la condamnation des « possédées » et de l’instigateur des poursuites, le pasteur Ole Bjørn, plutôt que par celle des sorcières présumées. L’article retrace les différentes étapes de l’affaire, depuis ses débuts dans le bourg de Thisted en 1696 jusqu’à son transfert à la juridiction de Viborg et son examen final par la Cour suprême du Danemark. En 1699, un livret anonyme fut publié racontant toute l’histoire et tournant en ridicule la croyance en la sorcellerie. L’étude de ce livret nous permettra d’éclairer et de mieux comprendre les événements et leur perception à un niveau local et dans les zones urbaines plus étendues. Nous montrerons aussi les changements qui étaient en train de se produire dans le discours tenu sur la sorcellerie, sous l’impact des événements survenus dans le reste de l’Europe et des procès en sorcellerie qui s’étaient tenus récemment au Danemark. Cet article met ainsi en relief la complexité des derniers procès en sorcellerie danois et les différentes raisons qui peuvent expliquer la fin des persécutions contre les sorcières dans le pays, éclairant ainsi par ailleurs, dans une perspective européenne plus globale, les évolutions ayant mené à l’arrêt définitif des chasses aux sorcières en Europe.
« Discurso[s] en razón de la Compañía que tienen los rebeldes de Olanda ». Les projets espagnols de réformes économiques en Asie au XVIIe siècle à l’aune du modèle de la VOC
Authors: Sánchez Jean-Noël 
Published: October 2022

« Discurso(s) en razón de la Compañía que tienen los rebeldes de Olanda ». Spanish plans for economic reform in Asia in the 17th century, designed in the light of the model of the Dutch East India Company — When Ferdinand Magellan left Sanlucar de Barrameda in 1519, the obvious goal of the Spanish monarchy was to gain a share in the spice trade of Insulindia, especially in the Moluccas. But the Spaniards only settled in Asia in 1565 and, in the early decades, mainly traded Chinese products rather than fulfilling their dreams of the Spice Islands. After the Flemish arrived in the area and created the Dutch East India Company (VOC) in 1602, the Spaniards finally settled in the Moluccas in 1606 and tried their hands at the clove trade. But the monarchy balked at organizing the trading circuit. Thus, while Asia cost a great deal and yielded little revenue to the Spanish State, the huge profits made by the VOC provided the “Dutch rebels” with funds for their war against Spain. In this context, numerous explanations were given to account for the success of the Netherlands, leading to debates about whether the model of the Dutch East India Company could be adapted to Iberian Asia. This paper outlines the context for such debates, describes their modalities and their concrete consequences in Asia.

Conflits, réseaux marchands et Consulats de mer en Catalogne à la fin du Moyen Âge
Authors: Coulon Damien 
Published: October 2022

Conflits, réseaux marchands et Consulats de mer en Catalogne à la fin du Moyen Âge — Plusieurs études ont déjà mis en valeur la notion de réseau et son caractère essentiel pour rendre compte du déploiement des négociants catalans à la fin du Moyen Âge. La force des liens qui les unissaient reposait en particulier sur certaines pratiques marchandes, mais également sur des institutions dont certaines ont suscité une moindre attention de la part des historiens, bien qu’elles aient joué un rôle clé dans la constitution et la consolidation de ces réseaux. Tel est en particulier le cas des consulats de la mer – à ne pas confondre avec les consulats outre-mer – dont les fonctions ont été progressivement définies dans les principaux ports de la couronne d’Aragon – Barcelone, Valence et Majorque – aux XIIIe et XIVe siècles. Ils se spécialisèrent en effet dans les fonctions de défense des intérêts marchands, puis à partir de 1348, dans un rôle de justice et d’arbitrage des conflits entre négociants, consolidant ou contribuant à ressouder les liens entre ceux qui dépendaient de ces institutions urbaines. Parallèlement se développa un code juridico-maritime commun progressivement consigné dans le fameux Llibre del consolat de mar, qui, lui aussi, constituait une référence commune aux marchands de la Couronne et contribua à la cohésion des vastes réseaux qui se tissaient parmi eux.
« Sculpter les mouvements de l’âme » : traduction des affects et émotions dans la sculpture du XIIIe siècle
Authors: Borlée Denise 
Published: October 2022

“Sculpter les mouvements de l’âme” : traduction des affects et émotions dans la sculpture du XIIIe siècle — Alors que l’on redécouvre les écrits des philosophes grecs – ceux d’Aristote en particulier –, les réflexions sur les mouvements de l’âme humaine sont intenses au tournant du XIIIe siècle. Parallèlement à ces débats philosophiques et théologiques, les artistes, notamment les sculpteurs empreints de ce naturalisme nouveau, vont s’employer à transcrire les affects et émotions de l’homme, non sans s’inspirer d’œuvres antiques dont ils cherchent à reproduire le caractère vivant. Puis, tandis que les modèles fournis par la sculpture antique ne sont pas complètement abandonnés, la nature elle-même devient la principale source d’inspiration. Moins contrariée, l’expression se fait plus naturelle alors qu’est introduit le sourire proscrit jusque-là. L’article examine à la suite d’autres de ces affects que la sculpture offrait à ses contemporains de lire, de déchiffrer. Et ceci, jusqu’à des propositions formelles qu’on pourrait juger paradoxales – têtes en raccourci, figures de dos –, autant d’autres manières, en fait, d’agir sur les émotions du fidèle.
Expulsion, grands récits nationaux et petits récits européens. Mémoires individuelles et construction des communautés en Europe centrale depuis 1945
Authors: Plyer Ségolène 
Published: October 2022

Expulsions, grand récités nationaux et petits récits européens. Mémoires individuelles et construction des communautés en Europe Centrale depuis 1945 – L’élargissement de l’Union européenne à l’est a suscité le retour d’un passé qui semblait jusqu’alors refoulé. Les expulsions de population à la fin de la Seconde guerre mondiale appartiennent à ces événements longtemps intégrés au discours idéologique de la Guerre froide et les témoignages recueillis auprès d’anciens expulsés sont de plus en plus sollicités pour renouveler cette histoire. A travers ces récits apparaissent les manières dont les communautés (ici : Tchécoslovaquie, RFA et RDA) se sont défaites et refaites entre 1945 et les années 1950 ; il ressort tout particulièrement que les assignations identitaires (plus ou moins arbitraires) des Etats ont été déterminantes pour les biographies des témoins. Ces « petits récits », longtemps négligés, sont non seulement intéressants pour analyser l’articulation des individus à leur principale communauté d’appartenance, mais aussi pour montrer, en creux, le coût humain qu’a pu représenter le fait d’imposer de « grands récits » nationaux dans ce contexte.
Understanding the Irregularities of Global Terrorism Incidents
Authors: Mirasol Joy M , Inovejas Christian J , Recente Joan M 
Published: October 2022

This study seeks to explain underlying causes of the persistence of terrorism incidents worldwide. A dataset (1970-2013) from the Global Terrorism Database of the University of Maryland was used through new methodologies embedded in a fractal analysis. Fractal analysis enables one to discover essential differences between the most frequently occurring values and the least occurring values, in effect, describing the emergent ruggedness of the data. Such ruggedness is summarized in terms of a quantity called fractal dimension. The fractality of the terrorist incidents was determined for the decades 1970-1979, 19801989, 1990-1999, 2000-2009 and 2010-2013. When the datasets of countries with the most significant events were compared per decade, a pattern showed that the common cause for the occurrence of the terrorist incident can be attributed to the marginalization of people/groups and economic discrimination. Further analysis also showed that other causes are associated with the marginalization issues that may be a result of interweaving factors relating to or encompassing economic, political, religious, cultural/historical, and ideological causes. Also, terrorism incidents can be explained utilizing the concept of détente as an alternative to the concept of balance of power.Keywords and phrases: Fractal analysis, detente, balance of power, terrorism, marginalization
Uncovering the Hidden Dimension of Global Business English Proficiency: A Fractal Analysis
Authors: Abejuela Hazel Jean M , Melendez Elle Christine D 
Published: October 2022

This study used the fractal statistical analysis to explain the Business English proficiency of 137,000 employees in multinational companies across 77 countries. Using the Global Business English Index (BEI) in 2013, this study compared and contrasted the natural and the normal states of English proiciency in three contexts of English use following the Kachruvian model: English as a Mother Tongue (EMT), English as a Second Language (ESL) and English as a Foreign Language (EFL); and subsequently, described the local characteristics of these countries to account for the fractal deviation. The results revealed that countries such as Bulgaria, Singapore, India, Sweden, Finland, and Belgium and the Philippines deviated from the natural state with BEIs of 6.076 to 6.575 (Basic Proficiency) and 7.95 (Intermediate Proficiency) respectively. The fractal variation could be attributed to two local characteristics of these countries: the sociolinguistic profile of the test takers and the provision of language training in multinational companies.Keywords: Business English Index, Business English Proficiency, fractal dimension, language proficiency
A Research-Based Evaluation Instrument of Teaching Performance Focused on the Learning Outcomes
Authors: Itaas Estela C , Valdez Maribel G 
Published: October 2022

All higher educational institutions in the Philippines have recently adopted the Outcomes-Based Education (OBE), and this has resulted in the need to revise how the faculty is to be evaluated. This study developed an evaluation instrument of the teaching performance of the faculty based on the learning outcomes. The study was conducted at Bukidnon State University with college students randomly selected from the different colleges. Factor analysis was used to generate the constructs. The researchers used Develop, Pilot Test, Evaluate, and Implement (DPTIE) model. The five factors with the constructs are Factor I – Motivation for Learning and Lesson Presentation, Factor II – Management of Learning; Factor III – Innovativeness and Creativity, Factor IV – Mastery of the Subject Matter, and Factor V – Assessment of Learning. Items corresponding to these factors or constructs are found in the final instrument. The evaluation tool was found to be valid and reliable to measure the performance of faculty. It cannot be seen yet how this can be applied to OBE where outcomes of learning are emphasized because the new curricula have to be implemented. However, it is recommended that this evaluation tool is utilized by the students, chairpersons, and deans to evaluate the teaching performance of the faculty.

Experiences of Graduate Students in Thesis Writing: Its Implications to ASEAN Integration
Authors: Itaas Estela C , Valdez Maribel G 
Published: October 2022

Graduate students often face problems of finishing their degrees based on the observation, experiences, and interviews with students and advisers. These problems are mainly due to the rigorous process of writing a scholarly thesis. Many graduate students are constrained by time and resources. Students do not have adequate research writing skills necessary for papers that reflect creativity, originality, and mastery of one’s specialization. In this study, qualitative methods were used with an open-ended survey questionnaire as the basis for the discourses employed in the narrative analysis. Five respondents represented each degree program. These graduate students were asked to describe their experiences of training designed to take them through the different sections of writing their thesis papers. The responses were then categorized using Gagne’s five categories of learning outcomes. Results indicate that the students found the training/ seminar-workshop informative and relevant. Based on the learning outcomes, the training improved their intellectual skills, verbal information, cognitive strategies, and attitudes. This training also impacts on the ASEAN integration in that students are confident they would be able to meet academic and professional requirements because of the learning they have undergone through the thesis writing training. Investing in training can help prepare students to meet the challenges of writing scholarly papers which are comparable to those written by other ASEAN member states.Keywords: training-workshop, thesis writing, scholarly thesis, rigorous writing process
The Implementation of the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) of the Agribusiness Firms in Bukidnon

Published: October 2022

This paper determined the implementation of the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) of the agri-business firms in Bukidnon. Specifically, it sought to identify the CSR projects that are being implemented by the firms, the manner they are implemented, the benefits of these CSRs, and the policies that can be generated based on the analyses of the findings. The results showed that the agri-business firms have been implementing several projects related to environmental protection, education, and training, community development and enhancement of local employment. Some of the firms are documenting the implementation of their CSRs while others disclose that they still have to measure the social impacts of their projects. Hence, one of the recommendations of the study is for the companies to employ an evaluation and monitoring mechanism to keep track of the progress and impact of their CSR programs. Keywords: corporate social responsibility, agri-business firms, education and training, community development, environment protection, job generation, health and wellness
The Effect of Different Adhesive Types on Failure Load
Authors: Birecikli Bahadir 
Published: October 2022

In this study, bonding joint with double zigzag type geometry was used. There are four types of overlap angles in the bonding geometry: 30°, 45°, 60° and 75°, respectively. Composite materials that are made of glass fiber have been used in this adhesive bonding geometry. These materials were produced by using prepreg (pre-impregnated) technique and [0°/90°] of orientation angle. Thickness of composite material is 3 mm. Ductile and brittle-type adhesives were used for the bonding joint. DP460 adhesive type shows ductile material properties while ATLAC580 adhesive type shows brittle material properties. The effect of adhesive type on the failure load was investigated experimentally. Test results demonstrated that failure load values were higher in the ductile-type adhesive.
Acoustic and Thermal Analysis of Food

Published: October 2022

Exploring the food acoustic features can help to understand and effectively apply some preservation treatments that extend their expiration date. The food composition and properties are crucial issues in their acoustic behavior when stimulated with acoustic waves. If these waves are varied in frequency and intensity, the temperature of food could be affected facilitating the moisture removal or degrading its nutritional condition. Therefore, we presented a guide to determine and apply the most influential spectral component of ultrasound waves on apple and tomato when dehydrated in an ultrasound-assisted dehydration system. In this guide, applying the finite element method, we study, simulate, and analyze the acoustic and thermic behavior of apple and tomato inside a chamber when radiated with acoustic waves at (1 Hz, 1 MHz) by using up to three piezoelectric transducers. From the physical parameters defined in the simulation environment for apple and tomato, we find the relevant spectral components that can produce temperature changes in each food sample considering the radiation time and the food sample location. This work represents an analysis guide that allows for determining the best conditions for the acoustic radiation of foods, avoiding their structural and nutritional damage, and seeking the design of energy-efficient processes.

Introduction
Knowledge of chemotherapeutic drug (CD) handling, administration, and waste disposal are important among nurses involved in cancer therapy. Inadequate knowledge of the management of CD could cause environmental contamination and potential harm to patients and nurses. To assess the knowledge of safe handling, administration, and waste management of CD among oncology nurses working at Khartoum Oncology Hospital, Sudan.

Methods
A questionnaire was developed by a team of experts to assess the knowledge in three domains of oncology nursing practice (handling, administration, and disposal). The study involved 78 oncology nurses working in Khartoum Oncology Hospital in Sudan from April 2020.

Results
The mean CD knowledge score of nurses was 12.7 ± 3.9 out of 26 items in the questionnaire. For each domain, their knowledge showed poor scores related to safe handling (mean = 2.0 ± 1.5 out of eight knowledge items) and good scores for administration (mean = 6.2 ± 1.7 out of 10) and poor scores for waste disposal (mean = 4.4 ± 1.5 out of eight). Simple linear regression indicated that education level (β = 3.715, p = .008) and training (β = 0.969, p = .004) significantly predicted knowledge among nurses.

Conclusion
There is a significant need to enhance the knowledge and safe handling skills of CD among oncology nurses in Sudan. Implementation of strict guidelines to manage cytotoxic waste to reduce health risks and hospital contamination.
Ontogenetic growth in the crania ofExaeretodon argentinus(Synapsida: Cynodontia) captures a dietary shift
Authors: Wynd Brenen , Abdala Fernando , Nesbitt Sterling J. 
Published: October 2022

BackgroundAn ontogenetic niche shift in vertebrates is a common occurrence where ecology shifts with morphological changes throughout growth. How ecology shifts over a vertebrate’s lifetime is often reconstructed in extant species—by combining observational and skeletal data from growth series of the same species—because interactions between organisms and their environment can be observed directly. However, reconstructing shifts using extinct vertebrates is difficult and requires well-sampled growth series, specimens with relatively complete preservation, and easily observable skeletal traits associated with ecologies suspected to change throughout growth, such as diet.MethodsTo reconstruct ecological changes throughout the growth of a stem-mammal, we describe changes associated with dietary ecology in a growth series of crania of the large-bodied (∼2 m in length) and herbivorous form,Exaeretodon argentinus(Cynodontia: Traversodontidae) from the Late Triassic Ischigualasto Formation, San Juan, Argentina. Nearly all specimens were deformed by taphonomic processes, so we reconstructed allometric slope using a generalized linear mixed effects model with distortion as a random effect.ResultsUnder a mixed effects model, we find that throughout growth,E. argentinusreduced the relative length of the palate, postcanine series, orbits, and basicranium, and expanded the relative length of the temporal region and the height of the zygomatic arch. The allometric relationship between the zygomatic arch and temporal region with the total length of the skull approximate the rate of growth for feeding musculature. Based on a higher allometric slope, the zygoma height is growing relatively faster than the length of the temporal region. The higher rate of change in the zygoma may suggest that smaller individuals had a crushing-dominated feeding style that transitioned into a chewing-dominated feeding style in larger individuals, suggesting a dietary shift from possible faunivory to a more plant-dominated diet. Dietary differentiation throughout development is further supported by an increase in sutural complexity and a shift in the orientation of microwear anisotropy between small and large individuals ofE. argentinus. A developmental transition in the feeding ecology ofE. argentinusis reflective of the reconstructed dietary transition across Gomphodontia, wherein the earliest-diverging species are inferred as omnivorous and the well-nested traversodontids are inferred as herbivorous, potentially suggesting that faunivory in immature individuals of the herbivorous Traversodontidae may be plesiomorphic for the clade.
