Old Testament translations in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and their contexts
Get PDFFrom the 15th century onwards, the Grand Duchy of Lithuania was a multiconfessional and multicultural state. Apart from Lithuanians, its population comprised Ruthenians (the ancestors of Belarusians and Ukrainians), Poles, and smaller Jewish, Tatar, and Karaim communities. After its Christianization, Lithuania officially fell under the jurisdiction of the Roman Catholic Church, but most of its inhabitants were of the Eastern Christian rite. Reformed Protestantism spread among the nobility at the turn of the 16th and 17th centuries, while Lutheranism flourished in Lithuania Minor. Smaller ethnic groups also had their confessional communities. All confessional groups had their sacred books. This article gives an overview of Christian vernacular translations of the Old Testament that were read in the Grand Duchy between the 15th and the 18th centuries. It briefly discusses the circumstances of the translation of the Old Testament into Ruthenian (the Skaryna Bible), Old Church Slavonic (the Ostrog Bible), Polish (the Brest, Nesvizh and Gdansk Bibles) and Lithuanian (the Bretkūnas, Chylinski and Quandt Bibles) as well as their characteristic features

Mykolas Firkovičius (1924–2000) and his work as a unique basis for the Karaim language revival
Get PDFThis article presents the contribution of Mykolas Firkovičius (1924–2000) to the revival and continuation of the Karaim language through three strands of his activities: religion, poetry and the language itself. Mykolas Firkovičius was a native speaker of Karaim, Karaim community leader in Lithuania for many years and officially served a senior priest in 1993–2000. Among other works, he published texts in Karaim, sources, poetry compilations, prayerbooks, textbooks, and wrote himself in Karaim. He was a man that profoundly helped his nation to continue its cultural and linguistic life after disastrous times that interrupted Karaim legacy, changed and transformed it. He provided plenty of material to be used by those who want to survive as Karaims, to still speak the language, and to stay strong rooted in the traditions
New generation of dictionaries of the Karaim language by Karaim speakers
Get PDFThe paper aims at providing an assessment of the new generation of dictionaries of the Karaim language prepared and published by Karaim speakers over the last two decades. Apart from that, the paper aims at providing a brief analysis of the already existing documentation of the Karaim language. The article is divided into two parts: firstly, the evaluation of the previously published dictionaries of Karaim language is provided; secondly, the new generation of dictionaries published by Karaim speakers, is being analysed, focussing on four works, namely two Polish-Karaim, one Russian-Karaim and one Lithuanian-Karaim dictionary. The dictionaries are being analysed by raising the same question in each case: what information in these dictionaries is provided about the Karaim language
The language of the Pentateuch translation in the Eupatorian printed edition from 1841
Get PDFThis paper provides an analysis of the language employed in the Pentateuch section of the Eupatorian print (Gözleve) edition, a comprehensive translation of the Old Testament into the Karaim language published in 1841. The objective of the study is to identify the specific Crimean Karaim variety employed in the translation through an examination of phonological, morphological, and lexical features. The analysis reveals that the translation displays features of both Crimean Kipchak Karaim and Crimean Turkish Karaim, and that the characteristics vary depending on the specific books and chapters of the edition
Enhancing Supply Chain Synchronisation in the Fast Moving Consumer Goods Industry
Get PDFIn 2021–2022, a decade’s worth of disruptions battered material supply chains, establishing them as a permanent factor. COVID-19 caused labour shortages, rising fertiliser costs altered farming, Europe faced energy crises, USA-China tensions grew, and the Ukraine-Russia war escalated. Extreme weather and policy shifts worsened global supply chains, leading to bare shelves and crippled businesses. Just-in-time delivery failed, and traditional supply chains no longer ensure business continuity. This article aims to prove the inefficiencies of traditional supply chains and offer an approach to creating an end-to-end model with better visibility, service, and cost control for Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) manufacturing plants. During the research phase, 12 European Pet food production plants were visited, analysing their supply chains via People/Systems/Process lenses. Risks, synchronisation needs, system requirements and training gaps were identified. Preliminary research findings are presented in this article
The Cohesion of the Error Management Culture and Risk Management Maturity in Healthcare
Get PDFErrors and mistakes are an inevitable part of organisational life and certainly life in general. However, errors result in adverse events. The consequences of them influence the safety of the staff and the health of patients. The focus is on the following fundamental question regarding the scientific problem at the theoretical level: How the error management culture relates to risk management maturity in healthcare? The aim of this study is to theoretically ground the importance of the link between the error management culture and risk management maturity in the field of healthcare. Methods of the research are literature review and the critical analysis of the latest scientific articles on the issue. In conclusion, the error management culture leads to the lowered occurrence of adverse events, improved error reporting, improved prevention of medical errors, improved quality and safety of the clinical services, and proactivity with regard to errors
