Réalisme magique ou fantastique ? - Stratégies narratives dans la réappropriation des traumatismes historiques
Authors: Lutas Liviu 
Published: November 2022

This essay starts with a theoretical discussion about the differences and similarities between Magical Realism and the Fantastic, especially concerning the possibility to apply the two concepts to the writing about the past, in particular a past marked by trauma. On the basis of this thoretical introduction, I analyze two theoretical works written by two francophone authors who have both won the prestigious Goncourt prize: Biblique des derniers gestes by Patrick Chamoiseau (2002) and Trois femmes puissantes by Marie NDiaye (2009). The two works appear as original ways to appropiate a traumatic, deeply hidden past, using a style which can be seen as close to magical realism or to the fantastic.
History, Art and Shame in von Donnersmarck’s The Lives of Others
Authors: Löfgren Hans 
Published: November 2022

Commentary on the successful directing and scriptwriting debut of Florian von Donnersmarck, The Lives of Others, tends to divide into those faulting the film for its lack of historical accuracy and those praising its artistry and conciliatory symbolic function after the reunification of the GDR and BRD. This essay argues that even when we grant the film’s artistic premise that music can convert the socialist revolutionary into a peaceful liberal, suspending the demand for realism, the politics intrinsic to the film still leads to a problematic conclusion. The stern Stasi officer in charge of the surveillance of a playwright and his actress partner comes to play the part of a selfless savior, while the victimized actress becomes a betrayer. Her shame however, is not shared by the playwright, Dreyman, and the Stasi officer, Wiesler, who never meet eye to eye but instead become linked in a mutual gratitude centering on the book dedicated to Wiesler, written years later when Dreyman learns of the other’s having subversively protected him from imprisonment. Despite superb acting and directing, dependence on such tenuous character development makes the harmonious conclusion of the film ring hollow and implies the need for more serious challenges to German reunification.
El ingreso del absurdo al campo cultural rioplatense a través de tres revistas periódicas dirigidas por Abelardo Castillo
Authors: Rimoldi Lucas 
Published: November 2022

Since the late 1950s, the Argentine writer Abelardo Castillo has published the cultural magazines El Grillo de Papel (1959-1960), El Escarabajo de Oro (1961-1974) and El Ornitorrinco (1977-1986). Under Sartre's notorious influence, their pages framed the theater in philosophical, sociological, and political discussions. This study of critical reception shows different ways in which these publications intervened accompanying the irruption of European absurdity in the Río de la Plata cultural field: from the beginning in the transdisciplinary and experimental El Grillo ..., to the interest in avant-garde expressions and the problems they present in front of the models of traditional representation, deployed in El Escarabajo ... This trail inscribes traces of a genealogy of the independent theater, as well as episodes of the debate on the social function of theater.
Hispanismos en el discurso romántico de Harlequin y Mills & Boon. Ámbitos temáticos y funciones socio-pragmáticas
Authors: González Cruz María-Isabel 
Published: November 2022

This paper studies the Hispanicisms employed in 25 English popular romance fiction novels published by Harlequin and Mills & Boon. The texts belong to the corpus compiled for Research Project FFI2014-53962-P, which focuses on an interdisciplinary analysis of romances set mainly in the Canaries (Spain), but also in other Atlantic islands. In these romances, most of the authors resort to code-switching, i.e. the insertion of Spanish words, phrases and sentences, as a literary strategy. After offering a description of the socio-cultural framework of this type of works and a brief review of some studies on Hispanicisms, we will examine the semantic fields and the socio-pragmatic functions that these Spanish words and expressions seem to play in the English discourse. Our findings reveal that the Hispanicisms used in the texts are not merely restricted to the semantic field of ‘romance and love’, and that the socio-pragmatic functions they play go beyond the referential function. We suggest that the variety of functions detected seem to contribute to the performance of a kind of macro-function of representation of the bilingual contexts and identities the novels portray.
Übersetzungsstrategien für den deutschen Referatkonjunktiv in Kehlmanns "Die Vermessung der Welt"
Authors: Ek Britt-Marie , Nystrand Mikael 
Published: November 2022

Das Deutsche unterscheidet sich vom Schwedischen dadurch, dass das morphologische Mittel des Konjunktivs dem Sprecher zur Markierung der Redewiedergabe zur Verfügung steht. Bei der so genannten berichteten Rede ist im Deutschen der Konjunktiv grundsätzlich obligatorisch. Hier wird morphologisch signalisiert, dass es sich in der gegebenen Textpassage um Redewiedergabe handelt – eine Möglichkeit, die im Schwedischen also nicht besteht. Im Schwedischen kann eine Redewiedergabe z.B. durch lexikalische Mittel wie redeindizierende Verben oder durch Präpositionalphrasen sowie durch die sog. Tempustransposition angezeigt werden. Jedoch sind auch viele andere sprachliche Mittel zur Signalisierung von Redewiedergabe vorhanden.
In dem hier untersuchten Text, der schwedischen Übersetzung von Daniel Kehlmanns Die Vermessung der Welt, besteht der Originaltext aus langen Passagen mit dem Referatkonjunktiv. Dies stellt den Übersetzer vor das Problem, in einer Sprache ohne den Referatkonjunktiv eine geeignete Entsprechung zur Redewiedergabe im Originaltext zu finden. Das Problem verschärft sich dadurch, dass das bei der Tempustransposition im Schwedischen vorhandene Präteritum auch in Erzählerkommentaren und in der erlebten Rede vorliegt, so dass nicht immer deutlich zwischen diesen Kategorien unterschieden werden kann. In solchen Problemfällen hat sich der Übersetzer verschiedener Übersetzungsstrategien bedient, die in der vorliegenden Arbeit näher diskutiert werden.
Percursos de Eros em O escuro que te ilumina de José Riço Direitinho
Authors: Araujo da Silva Maria 
Published: November 2022

Propõe-se aqui uma reflexão sobre os percursos de Eros em O escuro que te ilumina de José Riço Direitinho (2018), um romance-diário que tece o retrato de um homem a caminhar, entre luz e sombra, à procura de si. Representado nas mais diversas manifestações e vivências e oscilando entre voyeurismo e exibicionismo, Eros assume, ao longo da narrativa, as vias do desejo sensual, da posse e do prazer para se afirmar como impulso que derruba fronteiras, num permanente desafio à moral vigente. Os corpos delineados no romance-diário erigem-se como força transgressiva numa Lisboa libertina, propícia a encontros fortuitos e repleta de variadíssimas tentações. Guiados pelo desejo e pela luxúria, esses mesmos corpos enveredam pelo excesso e pela vertigem, que funcionam como antídoto à angústia e a uma solidão potencialmente avassaladora.
Cruces textuales y reconfiguraciones del deseo: De Leonor Silvestri a Iosi Havilio y Gabriela Cabezón Cámara
Authors: Semilla Durán María A. 
Published: November 2022

La proposición de este artículo consiste en leer, a la luz de los conceptos vertidos por Leonor Silvestri en Ética amatoria del deseo libertario y las afectaciones libres y alegres, dos novelas: Opendoor de Iosi Havilio y Las aventuras de la China Iron de Gabriela Cabezón Cámara. Ambas podrían inscribirse en un intento ficcional de imaginar nuevas formas de organización social y familiar que incluyan la circulación entre los géneros, como instancias posibles e incluso fundadoras de prácticas subversivas y, como tales, emancipadoras. Las dos propuestas son de diversa profundidad, extensión, eficacia y radicalidad, pero ambas rompen los órdenes establecidos y, a la vez, cuestionan mitologías culturales e históricas y hacen estallar los marcos políticos de la dominación.
The proposal is to read two novels following the ideas displayed by Leonor Silvestri in Ética amatoria del deseo libertario y las afectaciones libres y alegres: Opendoor by Iosi Havilio, and Las aventuras de la China Iron by Gabriela Cabezón Cámara. These novels could be understood as a fictional attempt to imagine new ways of social and family organisation, ones that would allow circulation between genders, in order to produce subversive and emancipated practices. The two propositions are different in depth, extent, effectiveness and radicality, but both break the established order and, at the same time, question historical and cultural mythologies, while blowing up political domination’s frameworks.

Published: November 2022

The pandemic caused by COVID-19 has fostered the digital turn, which has resulted in the transformation of different areas of daily life. The goal of this work is to identify new digital practices and their social impact in this context of progressive digitization. By means of a methodology based on a bibliographical and secondary data sources review, the work stresses some of the consequences of these digital habits, such as self-exploitation due to the difficulty of dissociating between leisure time and teleworking, videodysformia and exhaustion caused by the permanent videoconferences, the excess of misinformation or the lack of digital privacy and security. To prevent these undesirable effects of a hyperconnected, hyperactive and unequal society, the adoption of digital hygiene measures is proposed to minimize risks and turn them into opportunities. The improvement of digital skills becomes essential to achieve this aim.

Authors: Vijaykumar N. , Ushadevi K. N. , Arularasan G. S. 
Published: November 2022

Aims: Non-Timber Forest Products (NTFPs) form a significant source of livelihood for tribal communities living in the forest area. Various institutions have been established to help the forest-dependent communities (tribals) for collection and effective marketing of NTFPs collected by them. Study aimed to analyse the perception of tribals with respect to the role of various institutions in collection and marketing of NTFPs.
Place and Duration of Study: The present study was conducted in the Thrissur district of Kerala State. A sample of 50 tribals from Kadar tribe involved in NTFPs collection were selected randomly. The primary survey was conducted by administrating a semi- structured interview schedule during the month of February 2022.
Methodology: Participatory technique was adopted in elucidcating the information from tribals. Venn diagrams was used to determine the role of institutions supporting NTFPs collectors at Vellikulangara, Thrissur district. Venn diagram provide a clear picture of number of institutions, their importance, and the effectiveness of rendering services to them. Seasonal calendar used for exhibiting the monthly collection details of NTFPs collected by Kadar tribe.
Results: The study highlighted that the Kadar tribes considered Kerala Forest and Wild Life Department as most important institution. They play predominant role to improve in the livelihood of the Kadar tribe by procuring the NTFPs. They maintain good relationship with this department as they feel that service rendered by them is useful. The role of College of Forestry and Scheduled Tribes Development Department are limited to providing training and implementing various schemes of the government respectively.
Conclusion: Kerala Forest and Wild Life Department, College of Forestry, Scheduled Tribes Development Department and Kerala State Development Corporation for Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes play various roles in collecting and marketing of NTFPs. However, timely and effective services of the institutions and effective implementation of the schemes will surely help to improve the livelihood of tribal communities.

Abstract

Objectives
We conducted inhalation and intratracheal instillation studies in order to examine the effects of tungsten trioxide (WO3) nanoparticles on the lung, and evaluated whether or not the nanoparticles would cause persistent lung inflammation.

Methods
In the inhalation study, male 10-week-old Fischer 334 rats were classified into 3 groups. The control, low-dose, and high-dose groups inhaled clean air, 2, and 10 mg/m3 WO3 nanoparticles, respectively, for 6 h each day for 4 weeks. The rats were dissected at 3 days, 1 month, and 3 months after the inhalation, and the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and lung tissue were examined. In the intratracheal instillation study, male 12-week-old Fischer 334 rats were divided into 3 subgroups. The control, low-dose, and high-dose groups were intratracheally instilled 0.4 ml distilled water, 0.2, and 1.0 mg WO3 nanoparticles, respectively, dissolved in 0.4 ml distilled water. The rats were sacrificed at 3 days, 1 week, and 1 month after the intratracheal instillation, and the BALF and lung tissue were analyzed as in the inhalation study.

Results
The inhalation and instillation of WO3 nanoparticles caused transient increases in the number and rate of neutrophils, cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant (CINC)-1, and CINC-2 in BALF, but no histopathological changes or upregulation of heme oxygenase (HO)-1 in the lung tissue.

Conclusion
Our results suggest that WO3 nanoparticles have low toxicity to the lung. According to the results of the inhalation study, we also propose that the no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) of WO3 nanoparticles is 2 mg/m3.

Published: November 2022

AbstractExamples of anisotropic movement paired with helical geometry abound in the animal and plant kingdoms are used for a variety of reasons, such as diverse social signaling directed at conspecifics or camouflage to avoid predation. Inspired by these natural phenomena, a smart sensor is developed with a chiroptical 3D actuator that can fold, bend, and twist in response to external stimuli, reflecting light of specific wavelengths, and possessing circular polarization properties. Chirophotonic crystal actuators are constructed with an asymmetric Janus structure and are fabricated by self‐assembly, screen printing, and in situ photopolymerization. The optically active layer consists of cholesteric liquid crystal polymer, and the mechanically active layer is composed of a polymeric gel thin film. The programmed in‐planar and out‐of‐planar asymmetric Janus structures control the directionality of various shapes morphing from 2D to 3D. Finite element simulations allow to predict the shape changes associated with these chirophotonic crystal actuators: flower blooming, tendril climbing, eagle hunting, ant lifting, and inchworm moving motions. By utilizing the chirophotonic crystal actuator, a reusable and portable methanol‐laced water identifier is developed.
Boronate Building Blocks for Intracellular Protein Delivery
Authors: Ren Qianyi , Cheng Yiyun , Lv Jia 
Published: November 2022

AbstractIntracellular protein delivery plays a critical role in the development of biotherapeutics and biotechnologies, yet it is hampered by a number of factors including protein binding, cellular uptake, endosomal escape, and protein release. Boronate building blocks, which are frequently employed to create effective protein delivery systems, have shown significant promise in overcoming these limitations thanks to their versatile reactivities and stimuli‐responsive property. Boronate ligands transport conjugated proteins into the cytosol via receptor‐mediated endocytosis by forming reversible boronate disaster bonds with carbohydrates like sialic acid on the cell surface. Additionally, boronate modification gives cargo proteins extra binding sites for forming complexes with nanocarriers. After internalization, boronate‐tagged proteins are released from their carriers in response to endolysosomal acidity, reactive oxygen species, and adenosine triphosphate, and sometimes transport into the nucleus via the importin α/β pathway. Besides, boronate ligands are directly decorated on nanocarriers to enhance their binding affinity to native proteins via nitrogen–boron coordination. Owing to these promising features, various supramolecular and dynamic nanoassemblies are constructed based on boronate building blocks for efficient intracellular protein delivery.

AbstractCurrently, mRNA‐based tumor therapies are in full flow because in vitro‐transcribed (IVT) mRNA has the potential to express tumor antigens to initiate the adaptive immune responses. However, the efficacy of such therapy relies heavily on the delivery system. Here, a pardaxin‐modified liposome loaded with tumor antigen‐encoding mRNA and adjuvant (2ʹ,3ʹ‐cGAMP, (cyclic [G(2ʹ,5ʹ)pA(3ʹ,5ʹ)p])), termed P‐Lipoplex‐CDN is reported. Due to an nonlysosomal delivery route, the transfection efficiency on dendritic cells (DCs) is improved by reducing the lysosome disruption of cargos. The mRNA modified DCs efficiently induce tumor antigen‐specific immune responses both in vitro and in vivo. As prophylactic vaccines, mRNA transfected DCs significantly delay the occurrence and development of tumors, and several immunized mice are even completely resistant to tumors. Interestingly, the efficacy depends on the major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC‐I) expression level on tumor cells. Furthermore, epigenetic modification (decitabine, DAC) is applied as a combination strategy to deal with malignant tumor progression caused by deficient tumor MHC‐I expression. This study highlights the close relationship between mRNA‐DCs vaccine efficacy and the expression level of tumor cell MHC‐I molecules. Moreover, a feasible strategy for tumor MHC‐I expression deficiency is proposed, which may provide clinical guidance for the design and application of mRNA‐based tumor therapies.
A Continuous Gradient Colloidal Glass

Published: November 2022

AbstractColloidal crystals and glasses manipulate light propagation depending on their chemical composition, particle morphology, and mesoscopic structure. This light–matter interaction has been intensely investigated, but a knowledge gap remains for mesostructures comprising a continuous property gradient of the constituting particles. Here, a general synthetic approach to bottom‐up fabrication of continuous size gradient colloidal ensembles is introduced. First, the technique synthesizes a dispersion with a specifically designed gradual particle size distribution. Second, self‐assembly of this dispersion yields a photonic colloidal glass with a continuous size gradient from top to bottom. Local and bulk characterization methods are used to highlight the significant potential of this mesostructure, resulting in vivid structural colors along, and in superior light scattering across the gradient. The process describes a general pathway to mesoscopic gradients. It can expectedly be transferred to a variety of other particle‐based systems where continuous gradients will provide novel physical insights and functionalities.
Honeycomb‐Structured 3D Concave Photovoltaic Modules Supported by 3D Mechanical Metamaterials for Enhanced Light Recapture

Published: November 2022

AbstractFor a policy of 100% renewable energy, most renewable‐energy research is aimed at decarbonization; particular emphasis is being placed on increasing the portion of electricity generated by photovoltaics (PVs). As the application fields of PVs broadens from PV power plants and rooftop to various urban environments, achieving high energy yields requires expansion beyond current PV module structures. To satisfy these demands, honeycomb‐structured PV modules with incorporated mechanical metamaterials are proposed, to overcome the aforementioned problems associated with the limited mechanical properties of PVs, and to advance the development of 3D PV modules with enhanced energy yield. The honeycomb structures provide 28% greater power compared with flat cells by utilizing extra reflected or scattered light inside a 3D tetrahedron structure. For mechanical robustness, the 3D concave tetrahedron units are supported by a 3D‐structured mechanical metamaterial that exhibits a negative Poisson's ratio and is arranged in a 3D pattern.
