Mrožkov Tango in problemi njegove recepcije na Slovenskem
Full text linkThe Problematic Reception of Tango by Slawomir Mrožek in Slovenia. The article focuses on the play Tango by t he Polish playwright Sławomir Mrozek and its fate on the Slovenian stage. Although it was staged in Belgrade and Ljubljana as early as in 1965, the same year in which it was first performed in Poland, it was later relegated to the theatrical margins. It re-entered the repertory of the Ljubljanska Drama theatre as late as in 2023. This paper analyses individual productions and critical reactions, and concludes that Josip Vidmar had a significant influence on the fate of its reception.Članek se osredotoča na dramo Tango poljskega dramatika Sławomirja Mrožka in na njeno usodo na slovenskih odrih. Čeprav je bila uprizorjena v Beogradu in Ljubljani že v letu 1965, istem letu, ko je doživela krstno uprizoritev na Pojskem, je bila kasneje potisnjena na gledališko margino. Ponovno je prišla na repertoar ljubljanske Drame šele leta 2023. V članku so analizirane posamezne postavitve in kritiški odzivi; ugotovljeno je, da je na usodo recepcije Tanga pomembno vplival Josip Vidmar
Monolingualism vs. bilingualism: Formants as a personal identification of Slovenian and Italian vowels – absolute values versus ratios
Full text linkSince the speakers in this research differ in age, gender, emotions, physical condition, etc., the absolute values of the formants are different. Comparing the ratios between the formants shows that the values of the ratios between the formants are much more stable and comparable than the absolute values. The present paper analyses the relationships between formants F1, F2 and F3 on the basis of published formant measurements for Slovene and Italian and determines whether the relationships are constant regardless of the absolute values of the individual formants. The aim of the study was to compare the Italian and Slovenian formant relationships in monolingual and bilingual speakers. The results show, among other things, that descriptive statistical measures for stressed vowels in monolingual Italian-Slovenian speakers display a decrease in the mean value of F2/F1 from front to back vowels, with a minimum value for central and back vowels.Formanti kot osebna identifikacija slovenskih in italijanskih samoglasnikov pri eno- in dvojezičnih govorcih – absolutne vrednosti proti razmerjem. Zaradi govorcev, ki se razlikujejo po starosti, spolu, čustvih, telesni konstituciji itn., so absolutne vrednosti formantov različne. Ob primerjanju razmerij med formanti lahko ugotovimo, da so vrednosti razmerij med formanti veliko bolj stabilne in primerljive kot absolutne vrednosti. V prispevku sva analizirali razmerja med formanti F1, F2 in F3 na podlagi objavljenih meritev formantov za slovenski in italijanski jezik ter ugotavljali, ali so razmerja konstantna ne glede na absolutno vrednost posameznih formantov. Primerjati sva želeli italijansko in slovensko formantno razmerje pri eno- in dvojezičnih govorcih. Rezultati so med drugim pokazali, da opisne statistične mere za naglašene samoglasnike pri italijansko-slovenskih enojezičnih govorcih kažejo zmanjšanje srednje vrednosti F2/F1 od prednjih proti zadnjim samoglasnikom, z minimalno vrednostjo količnika/razmerja pri osrednjih in zadnjih samoglasnikih

Etika zastiranja in podrejenosti žensk v islamu
No full textThe Ethics of Veiling and Submission of Women in Islam
The article focuses on Islamic ethics, the veiling of women in Islam, and the Western criticism of this phenomenon. It describes how Islamic ethics affect interpersonal relationships, whereby religious commandments and principles contribute to establishing orderly coexistence between people. Particular emphasis is placed on the veiling of women in the Islamic religion, where different interpretations and practices are manifested because of a complex cultural and religious framework. It analyses how the veiling of women stems from religious beliefs but, at the same time, faces diverse interpretations and understandings in different societies. The article deals with the free choice of female veiling and how it is defined and conditioned in different societies. The whole discussion raises questions about diversity, culture, gender equality, and freedom of religious choice, which are embedded in the complexity of the relationship between Islam, Western culture, and the veiling of women.Članek se osredotoča na temo islamske etike, zastiranja žensk v islamu ter zahodne kritike tega pojava. Opisuje, kako islamska etika vpliva na medčloveške odnose, pri čemer verske zapovedi in načela prispevajo k vzpostavitvi urejenega sožitja med ljudmi. Poseben poudarek je namenjen zastiranju žensk v islamski veri, kjer se različne interpretacije in prakse kažejo kot rezultat kompleksnega kulturnega in verskega okvira. Poglobljeno je analizirano, kako zastiranje žensk izhaja iz verskih prepričanj, a se obenem sooča z raznolikimi interpretacijami ter razumevanjem v različnih družbah. Članek obravnava tematiko svobodne izbire ženskega zastiranja in kako je to opredeljeno in pogojeno v različnih družbah. Celotna razprava odpira vprašanja o raznolikosti, kulturi, enakosti spolov ter svobodi verske izbire, ki so vpete v kompleksnost odnosov med islamom, zahodno kulturo in zastiranjem žensk
Modalni katapulti in meje modalne logike
Full text linkI explore modal “catapults,” a variety of closure principles for modal operators. Consider a proposition p that logically implies, entails, strictly implies, modally implies, materially implies, …, a proposition q. According to the appropriate catapult for a modal operator M, if Mp, then also Mq. Modal catapults play a crucial role in the logical analysis of traditional philosophical arguments, such as fatalism and incompatibilism. Additionally, standard deontic paradoxes and moral dilemmas involve a deontic modal catapult in some form. In the realm of deontic logic, I advocate for a solution grounded in actualism and counterfactuals (Jackson, Goble). In considering whether it ought to be that A we should look particularly at what would be the case, were A the case. This approach explains the failures of closure while still acknowledging its central role in modal reasoning. Modal catapults are indispensable to the logic of modalities, but they also delineate the boundaries of this approach.Modalni »katapulti« so osnovne logične sheme sklepanj za modalne operatorje (»zaprtost« za logično posledico). Denimo, da propozicija p logično implicira, strogo implicira, modalno implicira ali materialno implicira …, propozicijo q. V skladu z ustreznim »katapultom« za modalni operator M velja prenos modalnosti: če Mp, potem tudi Mq. Modalni katapulti imajo pomembno vlogo pri logični analizi tradicionalnih filozofskih argumentov, kot sta fatalizem in inkompatibilizem. Tudi pri deontičnih paradoksih in v moralnih dilemah imajo katapulti osrednjo vlogo. Zagovarjam pristop, ki temelji na aktualizmu in protidejstvenem razmišljanju (Jackson, Goble): v razmišljanju o tem, ali bi moralo biti res, da p, upoštevamo, kaj bi bilo res, če p. Ta pristop dobro pojasni, kdaj prenos deontične nujnosti ne deluje in hkrati razloži njegovo uporabnost. Modalni katapulti so nepogrešljivi v logiki modalnosti, vendar tudi zarišejo meje tega pristopa
Tematika NOB v mladinski književnosti Branke Jurca: ob 110. obletnici rojstva Branke Jurca
No full textV prispevku je predstavljen tisti del mladinskega književnega opusa Branke Jurca, ki tematizira narodnoosvobodilni boj. Otroški literarni liki sodijo v dve skupini: v prvi so otroci, ki odraščajo v vojni in niso idealizirani, v drugi pa povojni otroci, ki narodnoosvobodilni boj poznajo zgolj iz pripovedovanja in ga doživljajo kot pravljico.The Theme of the National Liberation War in Branka Jurca\u27s youth literature : on the 110th anniversary of the birth of Branka Jurca. This paper presents the part of Branka Jurca’s literary oeuvre for young people which thematises the national liberation struggle. The children’s literary characters fall into two groups: the first group includes children who grow up during the war and are not idealised, and the second group includes post-war children who know the national liberation struggle only through narratives and experience it as a fairy tale
Od Girl, Woman, Other do Dekle, ženska, druga_i: spolno nevtralni jezik in literarni prevod
Full text linkFROM GIRL, WOMAN, OTHER TO DEKLE, ŽENSKA, DRUGA_I: GENDER-NEUTRAL LANGUAGE AND LITERARY TRANSLATION. Linguistic expressions of gender, gender perceptions and identities change along with society; but while there is an international tendency towards developing gender-inclusive/gender neutral as well as nonbinary langu-age, both rhythms of change and grammatical possibilities differ from language to language. Slovenian is a highly-gendered language where cur-rent best gender-neutral practices are as yet very experimental and not generally known, as well as more complex and visible than their English counterpart, the singular »they«. Still, literary translators can’t wait for these linguistic means to become generally established before engaging with contemporary texts including and exploring this aspect of language and/or texts by non-binary authors. After outlining the currently-available means and strategies for gender- -neutral language in Slovenian, including recommendations by relevant advocacy groups and organisations as well as the few linguists who have written on the subject, the paper presents the author’s own process of sha-ping the linguistic depiction of a non-binary character in the Slovenian translation of Bernardine Evaristo’s novel Girl, Woman, Other. Dilemmas and challenges are pointed out (such as the higher visibiliy of gender-ne-utral language in the translation as compared to the original due to the use of the underscore, including in the title Dekle, ženska, druga_i) and the decisions taken are discussed and contextualised.Jezikovni izrazi spola, spolnih percepcij in identitet se spreminjajo z družbo. Najbolj sveže vprašanje v slovenščini kot visoko ospoljenem jeziku je spolno nevtralno izražanje in/ali izražanje nebinarnosti. Prevajalke_ci pa ne more-mo čakati na ustaljene in preizkušene rešitve, da bi se lotevali izvirnikov, ki vključujejo in tematizirajo to plast jezika, oziroma izvirnikov nebinarnih av-toric_ jev. Članek na podlagi trenutnega stanja v slovenščini (jezikovna praksa, priporočila zagovorniških organizacij, prve jezikoslovne obdelave) predstavlja proces prevodnega odločanja o jezikovni upodobitvi nebinarnega lika in nje-gove jezikovne prakse v romanu Bernardine Evaristo Dekle, ženska, druga_i
Raba družbenih zvrsti jezika pri pouku slovenščine in širše v osnovnošolskem izobraževanju
Full text linkUsing Social Varieties in Slovenian Language Lessons and Broader in Elementary School Education. Spreading globalization and increasing digitization have affected the linguistic situation in Slovenia regarding languages in contact – both English on the one side and languages of immigrants on the other. Consequently, modern social conditions have blurred students’ perception about situational use of either literary or non-literary varieties of language. The Curriculum for Slovene (2018) is dichotomous, as it mainly introduces students merely to what literary and non-literary language varieties are. School is a key factor in the development of Slovenian language identity, and students must be introduced to the theory of language varieties with examples for everyday speech situations. The purpose of this article is to demonstrate how to raise linguistic consciousness in school practices, i.e. not solely focusing on the attitude towards the literary variety, but also towards regional language types, especially to dialect and slang, which are most often used by students in everyday speech situations.V slovenskem jezikovnem prostoru vse večja globalizacija in približevanje digitalizacije vplivata na jezikovno situacijo z jeziki v stiku – tako angleščino na eni strani kot jeziki priseljencev na drugi. Sodobne družbene razmere učencem brišejo predstave o položajni rabi med knjižnim jezikom inneknjižnimi zvrstmi jezika. Učni načrt za slovenščino (2018) je dihotomen, saj učence v večji meri seznanja le s tem, kaj je knjižno in kaj neknjižno. Šola je ključni dejavnik razvoja slovenske jezikovne identitete, pri čemer moramo učence s primeri vsakdanjih govornih položajev seznanjati s teorijo zvrstnosti. Namen članka je prikazati primere, kako v šolskih praksah privzgajamo jezikovno zavest, tj. odnos ne samo do knjižnega jezika, ampak tudi do neknjižnih zvrsti jezika, zlasti do narečja in pogovornega jezika, ki ju učenci najpogosteje uporabljajo v vsakdanjih govornih položajih
Navigating Through Habitual Residence Determination
No full textWithin the private international law area today, habitual residence seems to be omnipresent. Almost irrespective of the context, there seems to be no more appealing connecting factor than a habitual residence. It makes one wonder what exactly is so appealing about it. Is it the ease of determining habitual residence? Or maybe legal certainty? Uniformity? Flexibility? All these questions are legitimate and require answers in order to grasp the concept, its advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, this article provides an overview of the development of the concept, both in theory and in case law, with the aim of consolidating existing knowledge and seeking answers to the remaining questions.
Povzetek
Na področju mednarodnega zasebnega prava gre dandanes zaznati, da je običajno prebivališče vseprisotno. Skoraj ne glede na kontekst se zdi, da ni bolj atraktivnega povezovalnega dejavnika kot običajno prebivališče. To vzbuja vprašanje, kaj točno je tako atraktivno. Je to enostavnost določanja običajnega prebivališča? Ali morda pravna varnost? Enotnost? Prilagodljivost? Vsa ta vprašanja so upravičena in zahtevajo odgovore, da bi lahko razumeli predmetni pojem ter njegove prednosti in slabosti. Zato ta članek ponuja pregled razvoja koncepta, tako v teoriji kot v sodni praksi, z namenom utrditi obstoječe znanje in poiskati odgovore na odprta vprašanja.

Use of Botulinum Toxin for the Treatment of Headache and Facial Pain: Uporaba botulinusnega toksina za zdravljenje glavobolov in bolečin obraza
No full textBotulinum toxin (BT) is widely used in cosmetics and clinical practice. This literature review explores the applications of BT for the management of headaches and facial pain. The most widespread, well-reported, and ALIMS and EMA approved application for BT is in preventing chronic migraine at doses between 165–196 IU. After an incidental discovery, BT was validated through several RCTs, including most notably, the PREEMPT study. Following validation, BT was approved for use in treating chronic migraines. According to current guidelines, BT is used for the prevention of chronic migraines in patients who are resistant to other forms of therapy, such as triptans or NSAIDs. The most widely used BT injection protocol was established in the PREEMPT study and recommends 31–39 injection sites. In other primary headaches, such as tension-type headaches, there is little and confounded evidence of the efficacy of BT. However, some small-scale studies reported that BT outperformed placebo and improved pain in trigeminal autonomic headaches. BT is also used to treat chronic facial pain, most notably trigeminal neuralgias, with encouraging results in RCTs. While the primary mechanism of action of BT is the inhibition of acetylcholine release from terminal cholinergic nerves, more specific mechanisms of pain relief are yet to be elucidated, especially for migraine headaches. Our review of relevant published literature indicates that BT therapy is safe, generally well-tolerated and efficacious, and is a viable option for the management of certain primary headaches and chronic facial conditions.Botulinum toksin (BT) se pogosto uporablja v kozmetiki in klinični praksi. Ta pregled literature obravnava uporabo BT pri zdravljenju glavobolov in obraznih bolečin. Najbolj razširjena in dobro opisana ter odobrena uporaba je preprečevanje kronične migrene v odmerkih med 165 in 196 IE. Po naključnem odkritju je bila potrjena z več raziskavami RCT, predvsem s študijo PREEMPT. Po potrditvi je bila BT odobrena za uporabo pri zdravljenju kronične migrene. V skladu z veljavnimi smernicami se BT uporablja za preprečevanje kroničnih migren pri bolnikih, ki so odporni na druge oblike zdravljenja, npr. triptane ali nesteroidna protivnetna zdravila. Najpogosteje uporabljen protokol vbrizgavanja, ki je bil določen v študiji PREEMPT, priporoča 31–39 mest vbrizgavanja. Pri drugih primarnih glavobolih, kot so glavoboli tenzijskega tipa, je dokazov o učinkovitosti BT malo in so zmedeni. Pa vendar nekatere manjše študije poročajo, da je BT učinkovitejši od placeba in izboljša bolečino pri trigeminalnih avtonomnih glavobolih. BT se uporablja tudi pri kronični obrazni bolečini, predvsem trigeminalni nevralgiji, pri čemer so rezultati raziskav RCT spodbudni. Čeprav je glavni mehanizem delovanja BT zaviranje sproščanja acetilholina iz terminalnih holinergičnih živcev, je treba pojasniti še bolj specifične mehanizme lajšanja bolečine, zlasti pri migrenskih glavobolih. Po pregledu ustrezne literature je mogoče zaključiti, da je zdravljenje z BT varno, na splošno dobro prenašano in učinkovito
