Year: 2017

description: This study was conducted on assessment of budget management practice in the case of Major General Hayalom Araya Military Academy. The research considered the scant literature review on the theme and aims to present scholarly report on the cause of the budget scarcity in this military academy. As primary observer and insider, I am motivated to conduct this research. Thus, the general objective of the study is to assess the budget management practice in the Major General Hayalom Araya Military Academy and explain the causes of budget scarcity in the academy. Thirty percent of the total target population with 85 respondents were used to fill the both open and close- ended questionnaires. In addition, four commandants of the military academy were interviewed to collect primary data through semi-structured interview. the analysed data using table of frequency indicates that the annual plan is not depends on scientific studies and need assessment, the budget of the military academy is centralized and the utilization is not transparent. The Academy Lacks adequate and experienced plan and budget experts. There is no evidence based evaluation mechanisms in the budget utilization at each level of hierarchy. From this, the researcher concluded that unscientific annual plan preparation, non-transparent budget utilization, and centralized budget management results in budget scarcity at lower level of the hierarchy to carry out their duties and responsibilities. Therefore, in order to improve budget management process the leaders of the military academy should be committed enough to prepare annual plan and budget depending on scientific research and need assessment. They should be rational in allocating budget for departments and budget users. Key words: Budget, Budget Management, plan, and budget, Major General Halom Araya Military Academy

description: Considerable controversy exists regarding the association between calcium intake and mortality risk. Therefore, this study aimed to summarize available findings on the associations of total, dietary and supplemental calcium intake with all-cause, CVD, and cancer mortality. We searched PubMed, Scopus, Embase, and ISI Web of Knowledge until February 2020 to identify eligible publications. Random-effects models were used to calculate pooled effect sizes (ESs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for highest versus lowest categories of calcium intake and to incorporate variation between studies. Linear and non-linear dose-response analyses were done to evaluate the dose-response relations between calcium intake and mortality. 36 publications were included in this systematic review and 35 in the meta-analysis. During the follow-up periods ranging from 4.2 to 28 years, the total number of deaths from all causes was 163,657 (83703 from CVD and 83929 from cancer). Total calcium intake was associated with a lower risk of CVD mortality (Pooled ES for highest v lowest category: 0.91; 95% CI: 0.83–0.99, I2=68.1%, P < 0.001). Dietary calcium intake was associated with a lower risk of all-cause mortality (Pooled ES for highest v lowest category: 0.95; 95% CI: 0.92–0.99, I2=62.1%, P < 0.001). Supplemental calcium intake was not significantly associated with risk of all-cause, CVD and cancer mortality. In the dose-response analysis, there was evidence of nonlinear association between calcium intake and risk of all-cause, CVD, and cancer mortality. In conclusion, a non-linear association between calcium intake with all-cause, CVD, and cancer mortality risk was observed in this meta-analysis. Moderate intake of total (1000–1800), dietary (600–1200), and supplemental calcium (600–1200) was inversely significantly associated with mortality risk but higher calcium intake was not associated with a lower risk of mortality.

description: The level structure of the transitional nucleus $\mathrm{^{217}Ra}$ has been extended with the addition of around 20 new transitions. The discrepancies between the placements of several transitions reported in the earlier studies are resolved. The newly-established negative-parity sequence at low excitation energies hints at the expected parity-doublet structures in this nucleus. The properties of the observed simplex bands are compared with that of similar bands in neighboring nuclei. Since the presence of parity-doublet structures reflect octupole correlations, theoretical calculations using reflection-asymmetric triaxial particle rotor model (RAT-PRM) have been performed. A comparison of the observed features of the simplex bands with the predictions of the RAT-PRM calculations suggests that $\mathrm{^{217}Ra}$ exhibits an intermediate the behavior between the extremes of spherical and octupole-deformed nuclei. The termination of the simplex bands at intermediate energies and the structures lying above reflect the dominance of the single-particle excitations at higher excitation energies.

description: Crustal cooling of accretion-heated neutron stars provides insight into the stellar interior of neutron stars. The neutron star X-ray transient, KS~1731$-$260, was in outburst for 12.5 years before returning to quiescence in 2001. We have monitored the cooling of this source since then through {\it Chandra} and {\it XMM-Newton} observations. Here, we present a 150 ks {\it Chandra} observation of KS~1731$-$260 taken in August 2015, about 14.5 years into quiescence, and 6 years after the previous observation. We find that the neutron star surface temperature is consistent with the previous observation, suggesting that crustal cooling has likely stopped and the crust has reached thermal equilibrium with the core. Using a theoretical crust thermal evolution code, we fit the observed cooling curves and constrain the core temperature (T$_c = 9.35\pm0.25\times10^7$ K), composition (Q$_{imp} = 4.4^{+2.2}_{-0.5}$) and level of extra shallow heating required (Q$_{sh} = 1.36\pm0.18$ MeV/nucleon). We find that the presence of a low thermal conductivity layer, as expected from nuclear pasta, is not required to fit the cooling curve well, but cannot be excluded either.

description: We study tadpole potentials of non-supersymmetric strings, resorting to a first-order formalism known in the literature as fake supersymmetry. We present a detailed analysis for vacua with only gravity and the dilaton, displaying the obstructions that forbid the simplest inclusion of form fluxes. Our focus is on codimension-one vacua, for which we propose a definition of energy that might be suitable for stability arguments. Our findings point to the central role of boundary conditions when supersymmetry is absent or broken.

description: We consider exact and asymptotic solutions of the stationary cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE) on metric graphs. We focus on some basic example graphs. The asymptotic solutions are obtained using the canonical perturbation formalism developed in our earlier paper \cite{paper1}. For closed example graphs (interval, ring, star graph, tadpole graph) we calculate spectral curves and show how the description of spectra reduces to known characteristic functions of linear quantum graphs in the low intensity limit. Analogously for open examples we show how nonlinear scattering of stationary waves arises and how it reduces to known linear scattering amplitudes at low intensities. In the short-wave length asymptotics we discuss how genuine nonlinear effects such as may be described using the leading order of canonical perturbation theory: bifurcation of spectral curves (and the corresponding solutions) in closed graphs and multistability in open graphs.

description: Nowadays, the study of disasters such as earthquakes and their consequences, specifically in metropolises such as Tehran, has attracted significant attention. Allocating relief goods to distribution centres before the earthquake and providing relief services to the injured can reduce the fatality rate. Therefore, it seems quite necessary to present a certain routing and allocation scheduling model of relief vehicles to serve the injured. In this research, a mathematical model was proposed to minimise the unmet demands and transportation costs of relief vehicles and in the affected areas. Regarding the inherent uncertainties of disasters, we developed a robust scenario-based optimisation model for relief logistics networks to reduce the risk of fatality and provide near-optimal solutions for different possible disaster scenarios. We showed that the proposed cooperation plan produces a situation with additive supper property, which means that this type of cooperation will finally lead to a greater incentive for aid agencies to form larger coalitions. Furthermore, we proposed a set of cooperative game theory methods to distribute the cost-saving of the cooperation fairly.
Prospects for Neutrino Spin Coherence in Supernovae

description: We present neutrino bulb model simulations of Majorana neutrino coherent spin transformation (i.e., neutrino-antineutrino transformation), coupled to neutrino flavor evolution, for conditions corresponding to the neutronization burst epoch of an Oxygen-Neon-Magnesium (O-Ne-Mg) core collapse supernova. Significant neutrino spin transformation in, for example, the neutronization burst, could alter the fluences of neutrinos and antineutrinos in a way which is potentially detectable for a Galactic core collapse supernova. Our calculations for the first time incorporate geometric dilution in the spin evolution of the neutrinos and combine two-flavor and three-flavor evolution with spin mixing physics. We find that significant spin transformations can occur, but only with a large neutrino luminosity and an electron fraction ($Y_e$) profile which facilitates adiabatic conditions for the spin-channel resonance. Using our adopted parameters of neutrino energy spectra, luminosity, density and $Y_e$ profiles, our calculations require an unrealistically large neutrino rest mass to sustain the spin transformation. It is an open question whether examining different density profiles or incorporating other sources of nonlinear feedback, such as $Y_e$ feedback, could mitigate this need. We find that spin transformations are not sensitive to the flavor structure of neutrinos, i.e., the spin transformations occur regardless of whether we simulate two- or three-flavor transformations. In the two-flavor case, spin transformations were insensitive to the choice of solar or atmospheric mass-squared splitting as well as the choice of the Majorana phase. Importantly, our three-flavor simulations, as well as our two-flavor simulations done with the atmospheric mass-squared splitting, show that the inclusion of spin degrees of freedom can significantly and qualitatively alter neutrino flavor evolution.

description: Graph neural networks (GNNs) have emerged as a powerful tool to process graph-based data in fields like communication networks, molecular interactions, chemistry, social networks, and neuroscience. GNNs are characterized by the ultra-sparse nature of their adjacency matrix that necessitates the development of dedicated hardware beyond general-purpose sparse matrix multipliers. While there has been extensive research on designing dedicated hardware accelerators for GNNs, few have extensively explored the impact of the sparse storage format on the efficiency of the GNN accelerators. This paper proposes SCV-GNN with the novel sparse compressed vectors (SCV) format optimized for the aggregation operation. We use Z-Morton ordering to derive a data-locality-based computation ordering and partitioning scheme. The paper also presents how the proposed SCV-GNN is scalable on a vector processing system. Experimental results over various datasets show that the proposed method achieves a geometric mean speedup of $7.96\times$ and $7.04\times$ over CSC and CSR aggregation operations, respectively. The proposed method also reduces the memory traffic by a factor of $3.29\times$ and $4.37\times$ over compressed sparse column (CSC) and compressed sparse row (CSR), respectively. Thus, the proposed novel aggregation format reduces the latency and memory access for GNN inference.
Acting the Private, Intimate, and Public Body of Cuba. Review of Bretton White’s Staging Discomfort: Performance and Queerness in Contemporary Cuba
Creators: name: Espinosa, Diona
Publisher: name: Skenè. Journal of Theatre and Drama Studies
Year: 2022

description: This study offers an alternative viewpoint for understanding contemporary Cuba after the 2000s from a performance studies perspective. Staging Discomfort: Performance and Queerness in Contemporary Cuba by Bretton White discusses how performing queerness in contemporary Cuban theater can also promote a counternarrative that criticizes the state’s failing rhetoric about socialism and revolution in Cuba. She concentrates on queer bodies to examine key concepts like race, sex, marginalization, citizenship, and the state. The book considers five plays by Cuban playwrights that have been judged subversive, or have been censored or met with minimal official recognition from state cultural institutions. From the title one can already appreciate the questioning of the official Cuban cultural archive and political agenda. This selection brings to light an absent and urgent topic in current Cuban performance studies. In addition, it evokes a practice of resistance through artistic expression, as theater-makers and even audiences refuse to be silenced, reprimanded, or forgotten from their right to live in an inclusive and democratic country.

The Nurse from Narrative to Drama: Euripides and the Tragic Deviations of an Ancient Anthropological Figure
Creators: name: Beltrametti, Anna
Publisher: name: Skenè. Journal of Theatre and Drama Studies
Year: 2022

description: The essay investigates some figures of nurses in Greek tragedy, highlighting their difference in order to elicit the transformations required by the dramatic reshaping of the ancient folkloric and epic figure of the character. Starting from Eurycleia, the archetypical figure of the nurse in the Odyssey, the study first focuses on Cilissa, the nurse of Orestes in Aeschylus’ Libation-Bearers, then analyzes the very different Euripidean figures of Medea’s Nurse, of Phaedra’s Nurse in Hippolytus and of Hermione’s Nurse in Andromache, highlighting their noble or high origin in contrast with a conventional line of study that classifies them among the humble characters of tragedy. Minor though not humble characters, the tragic nurses interpret from time to time the strong distinctive features of the Homeric Eurycleia: a good substitute mother is Cilissa, in conflict with the bad natural mother of Orestes in Aeschylus; the critical intelligence, almost a dramatic split of the protagonist, is the dominant trait of Medea’s nurse; the self-denial of unrequited maternal love connotes Phaedra’s nurse; the ambivalence bordering on servile duplicity distinguishes Hermione’s nurse. Introducing into tragedy now the language of feelings and bodies, now the voice of the shared and collective ethos in contrast with the passions of the main characters, the Nurses incarnate in the great texts the feminine dimension and, better than the Pedagogues, recall the common feeling with its principles and its gnomai, often overcome or transgressed for political reasons.

description: Following a recent publication, in this paper we count the number of independent operators at arbitrary mass dimension in $N=1$ supersymmetric gauge theories and derive their field and derivative content. This work uses Hilbert series machinery and extends a technique from our previous work on handling integration by parts redundancies to vector superfields. The method proposed here can be applied to both abelian and non-abelian gauge theories and for any set of (chiral/antichiral) matter fields. We work through detailed steps for the abelian case with single flavor chiral superfield at mass dimension eight, and provide other examples in the appendices.

The Ghost of Iphigenia and Oedipus on the Stairs: Ancient Theatre Festival - Syracuse 2022
Creators: name: Ugolini, Gherardo
Publisher: name: Skenè. Journal of Theatre and Drama Studies
Year: 2022

description: The programme of the 57th edition of the Ancient Theatre Festival at Syracuse (17 May – 12 July 2022) consisted of three Greek tragedies. The staging of Aeschylus’ Agamemnon (the first part of the Oresteia) was directed by Davide Livermore in Walter Lapini’s translation and was envisaged as taking place in the 1930s. The show was structured around a number of highly successful stage effects of great emotive impact, not least of which were the huge mirrors forming the backdrop in which the public could see themselves reflected throughout the course of the action. Besides this, the director introduces the ghost of Iphigenia into the action, a character who is absent in Aeschylus apart from the repeated re-evoking of her sacrifice before the war of the Greeks against the Trojans. The staging of Sophocles’ Oedipus the King, directed by Robert Carsen in Francesco Morosi’s translation, is in a style which is completely different from Livermore’s Agamemnon, employing no special effects and instead totally focussing on the words and gestures of the actors. On the stage there towers an enormous staircase where the characters, and in particular King Oedipus, move up and down, their ascents and descents symbolically representing the rise and fall of the sovereign in a starkly ‘existential’ reading of Sophocles’ play which sees in the figure of Oedipus the paradigm of the condicio humana. Finally Euripides’ Iphigenia in Tauris, directed by Jacopo Gassman in Giorgio Ieranò’s translation, locates the story in an abstract and atemporal space thus emphasizing the ‘traumatized’ personalities of the two protagonists (Iphigenia and Orestes), who only through a reciprocal recognition seem to be able to discover their own specific identity.

description: In this work, we report the discovery of a candidate planetary-mass object with a photoevaporating protoplanetary disk, Proplyd 133-353, which is near the massive star $θ^{1}$ Ori C at the center of the Orion Nebula Cluster (ONC). The object was known to have extended emission pointing away from $θ^{1}$ Ori C, indicating ongoing external photoevaporation. Our near-infrared spectroscopic data suggests that the central source of Proplyd 133-353 is substellar ($\sim$M9.5), might have a mass probably less than 13 Jupiter mass and an age younger than 0.5 Myr. Proplyd 133-353 shows a similar ratio of X-ray luminosity to stellar luminosity to other young stars in the ONC with a similar stellar luminosity, and has a similar proper motion to the mean one of confirmed ONC members. We propose that Proplyd 133-353 was formed in a very low-mass dusty cloud near $θ^{1}$ Ori C as a second-generation of star formation, which can explain both its young age and the presence of its disk.

description: The present study aimed to investigate the reduction of aflatoxins as a potent hazard for human health in nuts during roasting, irradiation, and fumigation processes. A systematic search was performed in PubMed, Scopus, and ISI Web of Science on 6 April 2020 to find interventional studies assessing the effects of roasting, fumigation, and irradiation methods on total and individual aflatoxins concentration in nuts. Study-specific results were pooled by using a random-effects model. A total of 19 trials were included in the analyses. In most studies, the influence of method on aflatoxin reduction was assessed on peanuts. The results showed that the roasting method significantly reduced aflatoxin B1, B2, G1, and G2 concentrations by 46.91%, 30.66%, 40.88%, and 26.19%, respectively. Such results for the fumigation method were 20.88% and 22.56% for aflatoxin B1 and aflatoxin total, respectively. There was a 58.60% reduction in aflatoxin B1 and a 74.97% reduction in aflatoxin total concentrations in nuts following the irradiation method. The findings indicated that the evaluated processes could be influential for reducing aflatoxin levels in nuts.

Maria Del Sapio Garbero, Shakespeare’s Ruins and Myth of Rome
Creators: name: Elam, Keir Douglas
Publisher: name: Skenè. Journal of Theatre and Drama Studies
Year: 2022

description: Del Sapio’s book reads Shakespeare’s Rome as a multi-layered and palimpsestic cultural and historical entity, tackling issues of national identity and geopolitical expansion in late Elizabethan and early Jacobean England. The author brings to this book a judiciously mixed methodological approach, that marries critical theory, cultural studies, historiography, rhetoric, and the history of art and archeology. The main texts discussed in this volume are all – in different ways and to varying degrees – ‘Roman’: Titus Andronicus, The Rape of Lucrece, Julius Caesar, Coriolanus, Cymbeline and Antony and Cleopatra. The Romanness in play is not merely geographic or temporal: Rome in Shakespeare’s plays and poems is not so much a setting as an existential, moral and ideological condition. Del Sapio discusses the rhetoric of Shakespeare’s Rome putting into performative action the multi-layered historical and literary compositional style of her subject in a pluri-perspectival critical discourse. The result is a critical palimpsest worthy of its topic. Keywords: myth of Rome; archaeology; anatomy; anthropology; Roman ruins

description: Recent computational results suggest that directional dark matter detectors have potential to probe for WIMP dark matter particles below the neutrino floor. The DRIFT-IId detector used in this work is a leading directional WIMP search time projection chamber detector. We report the first measurements of the detection of the directional nuclear recoils in a fully fiducialised low-pressure time projection chamber. In this new operational mode, the distance between each event vertex and the readout plane is determined by the measurement of minority carriers produced by adding a small amount of oxygen to the nominal CS$_{2}$ + CF$_{4}$ target gas mixture. The CS$_2$ + CF$_4$ + O$_2$ mixture has been shown to enable background-free operation at current sensitivities. Sulfur, fluorine, and carbon recoils were generated using neutrons emitted from a $^{252}$Cf source positioned at different locations around the detector. Measurement of the relative energy loss along the recoil tracks allowed the track vector sense, or the so-called head-tail asymmetry parameter, to be deduced. Results show that the previously reported observation of head-tail sensitivity in pure CS$_{2}$ is well retained after the addition of oxygen to the gas mixture.

Eurycleia: The Odyssey's Best Supporting Character
Creators: name: Felson, Nancy
Publisher: name: Skenè. Journal of Theatre and Drama Studies
Year: 2022

description: Homer’s Odyssey provides enough detail for us, as interpreters, to piece together a coherent character under the proper name “Eurycleia”. To establish who she is in the poem and what roles she fills, I first examine all her appearances in the poem and all her interactions with the main characters of the family that rules Ithaca (Odysseus, Penelope, and Telemachus) and with the other servants (“small people”) in the poem: Eumaeus the swineherd, Eurynome Penelope’s chambermaid, and Melantho the traitorous handmaid. Eurycleia is especially loyal to three generations of males in the family and is dedicated to ensuring the reunion of Penelope and Odysseus — in part as a foundation for her security. In the homecoming drama, she plays the critical role of matchmaker who helps (re)unite the couple. Her first two attempts as matchmaker fail, but in her final appearance, the silent Eurycleia is Penelope’s unwitting accomplice in tricking Odysseus into revealing his knowledge of the marriage bed he built and thus his true identity. In my Epilogue, I offer seven potential stagings that spotlight Eurycleia, including her final silent role, in which I imagine her starting to obey Penelope’s command to move the unmovable bed to the hall. Keywords: the Odyssey; Eurycleia; wet nurse; loyal slave; confidante; match-maker; arbiter of justice

"Speak; I will listen". The Body and the Words in the Dialogue with the Nurse in Sixteenth-Century Italian Tragedy
Creators: name: Perrotta, Annalisa
Publisher: name: Skenè. Journal of Theatre and Drama Studies
Year: 2022

description: This essay examines the dialogue between the Nurse and the milk-daughter in a few Italian tragedies composed between 1514, when Gian Giorgio Trissino wrote Sophonisba and 1565, the year of Speroni’s Canace. In the dialogues, the essay analyses the rhetorical construction of that common ground of communication that can be intimate, confiding, compassionate, or, at other times, modelling and prescriptive. Three nodes are at the centre of the investigation: 1. The relationship between Nurse and milk-daughter involves the body. The relationship’s foundation is nourishment and care (many of the Nurse’s interventions are due to her disposition to care). This bond is a product of male writers’ imagination: which models drive the representation of such a visceral relationship between two women? The paper investigates how Renaissance authors used classical models to define the Nurse’s role and function 2. The relationship between the Nurse and the protagonist is often indicative of the epistemological set-up of the tragedy: what does the Nurse know/understand about her dialogue partner? 3. The Nurse’s role in unfolding the facts is crucial in evaluating her character in each work: she may be in line with the main diegetic thread or compete with it. Does the Nurse’s advising construct an alternative narrative line to the unfolding tragedy, prefiguring another possible, non-tragic narrative world? The nurse character thus seems to associate the ancillary position with a symbolic and relational density only partially investigated so far. Keywords: Italian Renaissance tragedy; wet nurse; Sophonisba; Rosmunda; Orbecche; imitation; mother-daughter relationship

description: In this article we investigate the cumulative stochastic gravitational wave spectra as a tool to gain insight on the creation mechanism of primordial black holes. We consider gravitational waves from the production mechanism of primordial black holes and from the gravitational interactions of those primordial black holes among themselves and other astrophysical black holes. We specifically focus on asynchronous bubble nucleation during a first order phase transition as the creation mechanism. We have used two benchmark phase transitions through which the primordial black holes and the primary gravitational wave spectra have been generated. We have considered binary systems and close hyperbolic interactions of primordial black holes with other primordial and astrophysical black holes as the source of the secondary part of the spectra. We have shown that this unique cumulative spectra have features which directly and indirectly depend on the specifics of the production mechanism.

description: Seit Mitte der 1990er Jahre sammelt das Deutsche Schulsystem zunehmend Erfahrungen mit Schulleistungsstudien, zentralen Vergleichsarbeiten und einer neuen Generation zentraler Prüfungen. In Nordrhein-Westfalen werden im Frühjahr 2007 erstmals zentrale Prüfungen am Ende der Klasse 10 geschrieben. Alle Berichte aus Bundesländern und anderen Nationen mit zentralen Prüfungen zeigen, dass diese eine stark normierende Wirkung auf den Unterricht ausüben stärker als die Schulleistungsstudien oder Vergleichsarbeiten. Solche Erfahrungen sind Grund genug, sich bei der Konzeption, Implementation und Auswertung zentraler Prüfungen fortwährend Rechenschaft über intendierte und zu vermeidende Rückwirkungen abzulegen. Dieser Beitrag gibt einen Überblick über Instrumente der Leistungsmessung und deren Funktionen, stellt Hintergründe und Merkmale zentraler Prüfungen und Produkte der Entwicklungsarbeit für zentrale Prüfungen dar und schätzt (vermutete) Wirkungen auf die Unterrichtspraxis ab.

description: RECIPROCITY aims to transform European cities into climate-resilient and connected, multimodal nodes for smart and clean mobility. The project's innovative four-stage replication approach is designed to showcase and disseminate best practices for sustainable urban development and mobility.
 As part of this project, the present business model report (D3.3) provides an overview of innovative urban mobility business models that could be tailored to cities in the RECIPROCITY replication ecosystem. The work developed was based upon the work carried-out in WP1-2-4, and aimed to collect and derive the business model patterns for urban mobility and propose a business model portfolio that encourage cross-sector collaboration and create an integrated mobility system.
 This report is therefore addressed to cities and local authorities that have to meet mobility challenges (i.e. high costs and low margin, broad set of partners, competing with private car) by providing new services to activate and accelerate a sustainable modal shift. It also targets other stakeholders interested in business model concepts applied to cities.
The Nurse in Racine’s Phèdre. Between Imitation and Innovation
Creators: name: Gambelli, Delia

description: When attempting any mythological interpretation of Racine’s tragedies, consultation of their sources is a necessity: in the case of Phèdre the first works to be examined must clearly be those of Euripides and Seneca. However, even a meticulously close comparative reading of the play with its Greek and Latin predecessors does not end with the identification and analysis of the variants introduced by Racine in this epitome of seventeenth-century French tragedy in relation to the works of the Anciens. The intention here is that of examining the underlying motifs and the play of signification which these variants instigate. One of the most significant elements in such an analysis here is undeniably the role of the Nurse, where Racine operates unexpected differences when compared to his models. Although he keeps the indispensable dramaturgical features already present in his sources, here the Nurse does not simply embody the function of confidante and then bad counsellor, but becomes a character in the round, with her own name, OEnone, and with her own destiny. Above all it is the boundaries of her dialogue with Phèdre that change. Even allowing for the fact that in the first scene of Act I, during a sudden hesitation, the dialogue becomes a monologue, and that in the end Phèdre spurns OEnone, accusing her of being a bribed courtesan and a flatterer, during most of the action their voices blend to the point of almost seeming an interior monologue. What is even more fascinating is the space dedicated to OEnone’s suicide and its proximity to that of Phèdre when these events are recounted by the other characters. In this way it is the figure of the Nurse which becomes the moving force of innovation when compared to the ancient versions while the inevitable fascination of these sources never slackens its hold on Racine’s original project.
