Synaesthesia and Sensory Accessibility. Vicarious analog and digital technologies for accessibility to visual art / Sinestesia y accesibilidad sensorial. Tecnologías analógicas y digitales vicarias para la accesibilidad al arte
No full textIl paper affronta la relazione fra sinestesia e cecità con l’obiettivo di comprendere quali
aspetti di questa relazione possano essere applicati per rendere accessibile l’arte, e i progetti
comunicativi ad essa connessi, a persone con disabilità sensoriali. La prima parte è dedicata a
una sintetica ricostruzione storica dei principali contributi che hanno studiato le percezioni
sinestesiche in persone con disabilità visive rilevandone analogie e differenze con le stesse in
persone vedenti. La seconda parte rileva l’importanza della sinestesia per l’accessibilità dei
contenuti, nello specifico di opere d’arte visiva in contesti museali. L’ultima parte infine porta
il caso, realizzato dall’autrice con i suoi collaboratori, di una piccola esposizione multimediale
(“ControSenso”) in cui i contenuti comunicati – oggetto a loro volta di eventi espositivi
realizzati nella città di Milano – sono proposti su più registri sensoriali, ricercando e
proponendo una loro traduzione sinestesica.The paper addresses the relationship between synaesthesia and blindness with the aim of
understanding which aspects of this relationship can be applied to make art, and the
communication projects connected to it, accessible to people with sensory disabilities. The
first part is dedicated to a synthetic historical reconstruction of the main contributions that
have studied synaesthetic perceptions in people with visual disabilities, noting similarities and
differences with them in sighted people. The second part highlights the importance of
synaesthesia for the accessibility of content, specifically of works of visual art in museum
contexts. Finally, the last part brings the case, created by the author with her collaborators, of
a small multimedia exhibition ("ControSenso") in which the contents communicated - in turn
the subject of exhibition events held in the city of Milan - are proposed on more sensory
registers, researching and proposing their synaesthetic translation.El artículo aborda la relación entre sinestesia y ceguera con el objetivo de comprender qué

“Challenging the Authority of Religious Interpretation in Saudi Arabia::The Transformation of Suhaila Zain al-Abedin Hammad
No full textTaking as its starting point that a male monopoly is a problem in the recognition of Islamic religious authority, especially in matters related to women, this chapter discusses the possibilities for challenging this monopoly. The author argues that it is necessary to create alternative sources of authority from within the realm of religious scholarship through women scholars laying direct claim to the interpretation of sacred texts. Al Fassi uses the works and experiences of the Saudi scholar, Suhaila Zain al-Abedin Hammad, as a specific example for this approach. Hammad, an accomplished religious scholar, has worked tirelessly through her writing, both in books and her weekly newspaper column, to address difficult issues in Islamic law, to rethink the use of weak hadiths, and to critique Saudi legal rulings. The chapter also considers the intense backlash against her work and her impact on Saudi public opinion. © 2020 selection and editorial matter, Dina El Omari, Juliane Hammer and Mouhanad Khorchide; individual chapters, the contributors
Effects of chelating agent (RC – Preparation) on surface characterization of profile nickel-titanium endodontic instruments
No full textThe aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of a chelating agent, RC-prep, on the surface characterization
of nickel-titanium endodontic instruments. The instruments were immersed in RC-prep for varying times up to 1 hour.
The surface elements analysis of all instruments was carried out using electron microscope fitted energy dispersive
x-ray (EDX) analyzer. Surface analysis revealed no significant change in the amount of Ni, Ti and NiO for all the time
intervals. However, there was statistically significant increase in the concentration of TiO2, after 5 minutes, ½ hour
and 1 hour immersion times. In conclusion, the surface treatment of NiTi files with RC-prep may affect their biocompatibility.Corresponding Author:

Nea Ionia Magnesia, Grecia. Un progetto urbano
No full textIl saggio partendo dalla recensione del progetto vincitore del concorso Europan7- affronta la tematica del ruolo del progetto urbano nella trasformazione della città. Lo studio di cui fa parte l’autrice, vince nel 2003 il concorso in Grecia, a Nea Ionia presso Volos. Il tema del concorso è il progetto di un nuovo quartiere residenziale con servizi, una scuola e un centro cittadino. il progetto costituisce un frammento autonomo di città che intende riconnotare il contesto e confrontarsi con esso attraverso una impostazione identitaria esplicita e dirompente. La ricerca di una memoria antica di un luogo ormai privato dei segni dell’origine è costante in tutta la costruzione del nuovo insediamento e della sua rappresentazione come unica affermazione della possibilità del nuovo. Ne consegue l’impegno a ridurre al limite le connotazioni stilistiche in favore di un linguaggio scarnificato e composto di soli elementi primari, attraverso cui la mediterraneità è rievocata come condizione fondativa più che semplice riferimento figurativo. Su sollecitazione del bando il concetto di “durabilità” dell’architettura diventa centrale per la riflessione sulla trasformazione urbana. L’intero intervento risolve in tal senso le richieste funzionali.The essay starting with the review of the winning design Europan7-addresses the issue of the role of urban design in the transformation of the city.

The theme of the competition is the design of a new residential neighborhood with amenities, a school and a town center. the project is a fragment autonomous city intends riconnotare the context and deal with it through an explicit setting of identity and disruptive. The search for an ancient memory of a place now deprived of the signs of the origin is constant throughout the construction of the new settlement and its representation as the only affirmation of the possibility of the new. Consequently, efforts to reduce the limit the stylistic connotations in favor of a language stripped and consists of only primary elements, through which the Mediterranean is commemorated as a condition founding more than just figurative reference. At the urging of the notice, the concept of "durability" of architecture becomes central to the debate on urban transformation. The entire intervention results in this sense, the functional requirements
Cosmovisión, identidad e imagen de la mujer wampis en el poemario Sanchiu (2021), de Dina Ananco
No full textEn el presente artículo se estudian los temas de la cosmovisión, la identidad y la imagen de la mujer wampis en el poemario bilingüe Sanchiu (2021), escrito en lengua wampis y autotraducido al castellano por la poeta Dina Ananco (Bagua, 1985). Nuestra hipótesis de investigación es que la autora, a través de su voz poética, utiliza estos temas como parte de su proyecto estético-ideológico de revalorar e incluir a la cultura y lengua wampis en el panorama literario actual. Para sustentar lo mencionado, realizaremos un análisis hermenéutico de una selección de poemas en su versión castellana, teniendo en cuenta la versión wampis para plantear una caracterización general del poemario en el marco de la poesía escrita en lenguas originarias en Perú y en Latinoamérica. This article studies the themes of cosmovision, identity and the image of the Wampis woman in the bilingual poetry book Sanchiu (2021), written in the Wampis language and self-translated into Spanish by the poet Dina Ananco (Bagua, 1985). Our research hypothesis is that the author, through her poetic voice, uses these themes as part of her aesthetic-ideological project of revaluing and including the Wampis culture and language in the current literary panorama. To support the above, we will carry out a hermeneutic analysis of a selection of poems in their Spanish version, taking into account the Wampis version in order to propose a general characterization of the collection within the framework of poetry written in native languages in Peru and Latin America

Ibadah yang kita laksanakan dalam kehidupan sehari-hari memiliki makna tersendiri, yaitu melatih dan
menjadikan kita sebagai umat muslim yang bertakwa kepada Allah Swt. Begitu pula rangkaian ibadah
yang kita kerjakan yaitu ibadah wajib ataupun sunnah, pada dasarnya mengandung nilai etika atau moral
tertentu. Salah satu Ibadah yang dapat meningkatkan moral kita ialah ibadah puasa. Ibadah puasa adalah
bentuk ketaatan seorang hamba kepada sang Pencipta dengan menahan diri dari makan, minum dan
hubungan seksual serta hal-hal yang membatalkan puasa mulai dari terbitnya matahari hingga
terbenamnya matahari dengan niat dan mengharapkan Ridha Allah sesuai dengan tata cara yang terdapat
dalam syara. Dalam ibadah puasa tentu saja banyak nilai-nilai yang dapat membangkitkan semangat
jasmani, jiwa serta sosial, baik puasa wajib ataupun sunnah akan memberikan dampak positif bagi mereka
yang mengerjakan ibadah puasa dengan sebaik-baiknya dan dengan ketentuan yang sudah diajarkan oleh
syari’at Islam.
Kitab Minhajul Muslim membahas tentang nilai-nilai Ibadah Puasa yang bersifat wajib ataupun
sunnah yang perlu kita aplikasikan dalam kehidupan sehari-hari, yang menjadi rumusan masalah dalam
penelitian ini adalah apa saja nilai-nilai Ibadah Puasa dalam kitab minhajul muslim karya Syaikh Abu
Bakar Jabir Al-Jaza’iri dan bagaimana implikasinya terhadap pendidikan karakter. Penelitian yang
penulis lakukan bertujuan untuk mengetahui apa saja nilai-nilai Ibadah puasa dalam kitab Minhajul
Muslim karya Syaikh Abu Bakar Jabir Al-Jaza’iri dan implikasinya terhadap pendidikan karakter.
Adapun jenis penelitian yang penulis gunakan adalah penelitian Library Research. Sumber data yang
diperoleh dari penlitian ini yaitu sumber data primer (sumber data pokok) dan sumber data sekunder
(sumber data penunjang). Metode pengumpulan data yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah study
dokumentar (Dokumentar Study). Kemudian selanjutnya data yang diperoleh dianalisis dengan analisis isi
(content Analysis).
Penelitian ini menunjukan bahwa pemikiran Syaikh Abu Bakar Jabir Al-Jaza’iri dalam kitab Minhajul
Muslim menunjukan bahwa dapat diambil nilai-nilai ibadah puasa sebagai berikut: 1) Puasa mendidik
orang dengan sifat-sifat kesabaran, jujur, dan mengendalikan hawa nafsu 2) puasa menumbuh
kembangkan rasa kepedulian sosial, 3) Puasa dapat menyehatkan baik secara jasmani maupun rohani.
Nilai-nilai ibadah puasa sebagaimana yang dikemukakan Syaikh Abu Bakar Jabir Al-Jaza’iri dapat
berimplikasi terhadap pendidikan karakter, karena dengan berpuasa dapat melatih diri dengan berbagai
budi pekerti yang baik pada hakekatnya membentuk jiwa, kepribadian, sikap dan perilaku manusia ideal
dan pada gilirannya membentuk manusia yang tangguh dan bertakwa.

VALUES OF FAST WORSHIP IN THE BOOK OF MINHAJUL MUSLIM BY SYAIKH ABU
BAKAR JABIR AL-JAZA'IRI AND THEIR IMPLICATIONS ON CHARACTER EDUCATION
BY
DINA DESTRI RAHAYU NINGSIH
Worship that we carry out in everyday life has its own meaning, namely to train and make us as
Muslims who fear Allah SWT. Likewise, the series of worship that we do, namely mandatory or sunnah
worship, basically contains certain ethical or moral values. One of worship that can increase our morale is
fasting. Fasting is a form of obedience of a servant to the Creator by refraining from eating, drinking and
sexual relations as well as things that break the fast from sunrise to sunset with the intention and hoping
for the pleasure of Allah in accordance with the procedures contained in the syara. In fasting, of course,
there are many values that can arouse physical, mental and social enthusiasm, whether fasting is
mandatory or sunnah will have a positive impact on those who do fasting as well as possible and with the
provisions that have been taught by Islamic law.
The book of Muslim Minhajul discusses the values of fasting worship that are obligatory or sunnah
that we need to apply in daily life, the formulation of the problem in this study is what are the values of
fasting in the book of Muslim minhajul by Shaykh Abu Bakar Jabir Al -Jaza'iri and what are the
implications for character education. The research that the author conducted aims to find out what are the
values of fasting in the book of Minhajul Muslim by Shaykh Abu Bakar Jabir Al-Jaza'iri and its
implications for character education. The type of research that the author uses is Library Research. The
data sources obtained from this research are primary data sources (primary data sources) and secondary
data sources (supporting data sources). The data collection method used in this research is a documentary
study (Documentar Study). Then, the data obtained was analyzed by content analysis.
This study shows that the thoughts of Shaykh Abu Bakar Jabir Al-Jaza'iri in the book of Minhajul
Muslim, show that the values of fasting can be taken as follows: 1) Fasting educates people with the
characteristics of patience, honesty, and controlling lust 2) fasting develops a sense of social awareness,
3) Fasting can be healthy both physically and spiritually. The values of fasting as stated by Shaykh Abu
Bakar Jabir Al-Jaza'iri can have implications for character education, because fasting can train oneself
with various good manners which essentially shape the soul, personality, attitudes and ideal human
behavior and in turn form a strong and pious human being.

Operation Iraqi Freedom: The Unjust War of Generation Y
No full textOperation Iraqi Freedom: The Unjust War of Generation Y is an in depth look at three different Just War Theories. First, the Christian Just War Theory, the Classical Greek idea of Just War, and the Just War ideas of the Yoruba Tribe of West Africa are examined. In the second chapter the Christian model of Just War Theory is then applied to Operation Iraqi Freedom as a while in an effort to determine the "justness" of said operation. Finally, the author uses letters written home from his time spent fighting in Operation Iraqi Freedom to illuminate what combat is actually like and how that looks in juxtaposition with the idea of any war being "just".Modern and Classical Languages, Department ofHonors Colleg
Efficacy of essential oil nanoemulsion delivery system for strong antimicrobial action against pathogen Listeria monocytogenes
No full textListeria monocytogenes has gained increasing attention as a pathogen of public health importance owing to large numbers of foodborne outbreaks of listeriosis, led to this study. A wide range of essential oils (EOs) and natural products have been used to control Listeria monocytogenes. The reason for using essential oils is to preserve food by inhibiting the growth and proliferation of microorganisms in food due to its antimicrobial effects against microorganism, but their low water solubility limits their efficacy and application in food. This study included two objectives first, in the present study, 28 different essential oils were evaluated for their antimicrobial activities against Listeria monocytogenes.Various concentrations of EOs were introduced into brain heart infusion broth to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for the pathogen. The experimental data were fitted to the modified Gompertz model, and the lag phase duration and maximum growth rate were calculated and compared for each essential oil at various concentrations. Overall, our experimental results indicate that frankincense, eucalyptus, and fire needle oils had the strongest inhibitory effects against Listeria monocytogenes with MICs <2.4 µg/mL. Essential oils with moderate antimicrobial effects included key lime, cedar wood, egyptian geranium, nutmeg, peppermint, valerian, and ylang ylang. Second, the antibacterial effects of the essential oils derived from the extracts of cedar wood, copaiba, fire needle, frankincense, egyptian geranium, nutmeg, peppermint, valerian and ylang ylang against the Listeria monocytogenes, was investigated in the presence and absence of different, 17.59, 35.17 and 70.34 µg/ml, concentrations of the casein proteins. The lag phase durations and maximum growth rate of each essential oil were calculated and compared. The effectiveness of individual essential oil varied from one essential oil to the other. The influence of the food matrix such casein proteins, was tested and determined. The effectiveness of the essential oils in absence of casein proteins and in the presence 17.59 µg/ml of casein proteins was similar but further decreased in addition of 35.17 and 70.34 µg/ml of casein proteins.Ph.D.Includes bibliographical referencesby Dina H.
