No full textStraipsnio tikslas - nustatyti Vilniaus Šv. Pranciškaus Asyžiečio bažnyčios (toliau vartojamas sutrumpinimas Vilniaus Bernardinų bažnyčia) altorinių paveikslų „Šv. Pranciškus Asyžietis“ ir „Šv. Didakas“ autorystę. Šie tapybos kūriniai buvo beveik netyrinėti. 2012 m. iš Vilniaus Šv. Dvasios (Dominikonų) bažnyčios grąžintų ir 2013 m. restauruotų paveikslų „Šv. Pranciškus Asyžietis“ ir „Šv. Didakas“ lyginimas tarpusavyje ir su 2009- 2012 m. restauruotu paveikslu „Apreiškimas Švč. Mergelei Marijai“ leidžia hipotetiškai priskirti juos XVIII a. Vilniuje dirbusiam tapytojui Matui Motiejui Sluščianskiui (Matthias Sluszczański (Sluszcański, Slusczański) ir patikslinti duomenis apie šį dailininką. Padėka: Už pastabas, konsultacijas ir įžvalgas straipsnio autorius dėkoja Lietuvos dailės muziejaus Prano Gudyno restauravimo centro eksperto kvalifikacijos metalo restauratoriui Rimvydui Derkinčiui ir Lietuvos kultūros tyrimų instituto mokslo darbuotojai Regimantai Stankevičienei, o už vertimą iš lotynų į lietuvių kalbą - Vilniaus universiteto mokslinių tyrimų ir paveldo rinkinių centro rankraščių skyriaus vyriausiajai bibliotekininkei Irenai Katilienei.

The identic shape, similar size, composition, manner of execution of the paintings mentioned above gave rise to the search of possible the same author. To justify the hypothetical insight that the author of these pieces of art can be painter Matas Motiejus Sluščanskis who worked in Vilnius, mutual comparison, the technical and other facts of the paintings, their visual art analysis, the published information about the author, are invoked. Even though it is known that the frescoes of Vilnius St. Therese church were painted by the artist Sluščanskis, due to painting on canvas with oil paints and rendering technology and specific image and differences, comparative analysis of these pieces is very complicated. Even though the repainting works of Mary Mother of Jesus in the painting revelation are performed by artist Sluščanskis, they are inappropriate because they do not have the individual features of the painter’s manner and the range of colors used for the repainting works is adapted to the overall color scheme of the painting being renovated. It is reasonable to draw such conclusions that the painting St. Francis of Assisi restored in 2013 is the first hypothetical easel painting of the famous 18th century painter Matas Motiejus Sluščanskis and the other painting St. Didacus can be assigned the painters of his ambient

Sant'Ambrogio nella letteratura religiosa slava orientale del Sei e Settecento : per uno studio preliminare delle citazioni ambrosiane nell'omiletica rutena barocca
No full textThe aim of this study is to investigate the reception of Ambrose in the writings of three Ukrainian baroque preachers, viz. Ioannikij Galjatovs’kyj, Antonij Radyvylovs’kyj and Dimitrij Rostovskij. The method that has been adopted in the presentation of the results of our survey can be outlined as follows. First, we focused on the thematic aspects of the process of reception, which generally fall into two categories: 1. Exegetical themes, based on motives drawn from the Scriptures; 2. Philosophical-doctrinal themes. Furthermore, for all the writers which we examined we tried to determine whether an author made a direct or indirect usage of Ambrose’s oeuvre. Indirect use is generally to be ascribed to the influence of either exegetic Comments on the Bible, such as those of Cornelius A Lapide and Didacus de Baeza, or of emblematic literature produced in the West, such as Hemannus Hugo’s Pia desideria (1624).
A second question to be addressed is how the intellectual and ecclesiastical context of the Ukrainian lands, whose distinctive features were pluriconfessionalism and the close ties to Western Renaissance and Baroque, influenced our authors in the way they made use of Ambrose, especially as far as the relationship between Orthodoxy and Catholicism is concerned
Can public education campaigns equitably counter the use of substandard and falsified (SF) medical products in African countries?
No full textSubstandard and falsified (SF) medical products are a serious health and economic concern that disproportionately impact low- and middle-income countries and marginalized groups. Public education campaigns are demand-side interventions that may reduce risk of SF exposure, but the effectiveness of such campaigns, and their likelihood of benefitting everybody, is unclear. Nationwide pilot risk communication campaigns, involving multiple media, were deployed in Ghana, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Uganda in 2020-2021. Focus group discussions (n=73 FGDs with n=611 total participants) and key informant interviews (n=80 individual interviews and n=4 group interviews with n=111 total informants) were conducted within each of the four countries to ascertain the reach and effectiveness of the campaign. Small proportions of focus group discussants (8.0%-13.9%) and key informants (12.5%-31.4%) had previously encountered the campaign materials. Understandability was varied: the use of English and select local languages, combined with high rates of illiteracy, meant that some were not able to understand the campaign. The capacity for people to act on the messages was extremely limited: inaccessibility, unavailability, and unaffordability of quality-assured medicines from official sources, as well as illiteracy, constrained what people could realistically do in response to the campaign. Importantly, reach, understandability, and capacity to respond were especially limited amongst marginalized groups, who are already at greatest risk of exposure to SF products. These findings suggest that there may be potential for public education campaigns to help combat the issue of SF medicines through prevention, but that the impact of public education is likely to be limited and may even inadvertently widen health inequities. This indicates that public education campaigns are not a single solution; they can only be properly effective if accompanied by health system strengthening and supply-side interventions that aim to increase the effectiveness of regulation.

Picture of St. Bruno from the Vilnius St. Bernardin church
No full textStraipsnyje nagrinėjamas XVII a. paveikslas, buvęs Vilniaus Bernardinų bažnyčioje. Tai Lietuvoje religiniame mene retai aptinkamas šv. Brunono (1032-1101), kartūzų ordino įkūrėjo, atvaizdas. Remiantis ikonografiniais ir literatūriniais šaltiniais, taip pat publikuotais šventojo ikonografijos tyrimais, analizuojamos paveikslo sukūrimo aplinkybės, aptariamas kūrinio turinys ir pavaizduotas siužetas. Šv. Brunono atvaizdų iki 1621 m. Europos mene sukurta palyginti nedaug, o ir vėliau jo ikonografija plėtojosi visų pirma kartūzų vienuolynų aplinkoje. Pagrindiniais jo ikonografijos šaltiniais buvo iliustruoti jo gyvenimo aprašymai arba raižinių ciklai, sukurti dažniausiai pagal žymiausius kartūzų vienuolynus puošusius darbus. LDK svarbiausias šv. Brunono kulto centras buvo Berezos kartūzų vienuolynas, kurio bažnyčioje buvo šv. Brunono koplyčia su to paties titulo altoriumi. Vilniaus Bernardinų bažnyčios paveikslo kompozicija susideda iš dviejų dalių: dešinėje pusėje vaizduojama scena "Paryžiaus teologo laidotuvės", kairėje paveikslo pusėje - peizažo fone, nutapytas visos figūros šventojo portretas. Paveikslo "idėjinė programa" turi aiškią antiprotestantišką nuostatą: šventųjų ir Švč. Mergelės Marijos kultas, Švč. Sakramento pripažinimas ir garbinimas, pati vienuoliško gyvenimo institucija susiejama su dieviškuoju gyvenimo šaltiniu ir priešpriešinama pasaulio išminčiai. Straipsnyje keliama hipotezė, kad Šv. Brunono paveikslas, kaip ir "Šv. Pranciškaus mirtis" bei "Šv. Didako stebuklai", galėjo būti sukurtas kurio nors Sapiegų giminės nario egzekvijoms Bernardinų bažnyčioje. Reikšminiai žodžiai: Restauravimas; Paveikslai; Bažnyčios; Bernardinai; Vilnius; Ikonografija; Šventieji; Saints; Churches; IconographyA painting of the 17th century, which was in the St. Ber-nardin church in Vilnius (now it is stored at the Lithuanian Museum of Art) is discussed. This work was not given thorough studies. The author corrects its name, identifying that St. Bruno (1032-1101), the founder of the Carthusian order, in Lithuanian religious art is rarely painted. The circumstances (establishment of a Carthusian monastery in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania in the middle of the 17th c., the spread of St. Bruno's iconography in Europe and Lithuania, a similarity between portraits of St. Bruno and St. Francis of Assisi) that influenced the appearance of this work are analyzed. According to iconographical and literary sources, as well as studies of St. Bruno iconography published earlier, the main plot of the painting ("The funeral of Paris' theologian"), the saints' attributes (a star, an open book, a monstrance, a fountain) and their symbolic meaning are discussed. The counter-reformational content of the painting is pointed out. The scene from the saint's legend and other symbols representing human wisdom and glory (a theologian of Paris is identified with Protestant religion) are in contrast with the real, divine wisdom and piety (Carthusians represent Catholic Church). Considering the relations of Carthusians with the Sapiehas (they were the main patrons of this order), an assumption is made that this picture, like the other two from the so-called Bernardins' cycle ("The death of St. Francis" and "The miracles of St. Didacus") might have been intended to decorate the funeral of one from the Sapiehas
