This article dwells on a number of episodes related to the last years of Alexander Shakhnarovich, an outstanding Russian psycholinguist and a talented academic advisor. Alexander Shakhnarovich is known primarily for his research in child speech. The periodisation of speech development in early childhood he worked out is of particular interest. The article pinpoints that Shakhnarovich’s research was not related solely to speech development in ontogenesis, but elucidated a broader range of issues from those of general theory, like the structure of language consciousness, to those of special purposes, like linguistic expertise in forensics, dialectology, intonation and modality, peculiarities of text analysis, etc. It was Shakhnarovich’s great experience in analysing child speech that helped him to explore other psycholinguistic trends. The scientist proved to be an expert both in psycholinguistic issues that were intertwined with pure linguistics and in the psychology of speech. Alexander Shakhnarovich was a remarkable proponent of Lev Vygotsky’s scientific school whose theoretical insights made in the first half of the 20th century underlay Shakhnarovich’s findings. It is noteworthy that both Shakhnarovich and Vygotsky probed into child speech attempting to make conclusions on language capacity development as a whole and to tap into the fundamental through the applied.

1. In a paper “On the Fourier Constants of a Function,” published in the ‘Proceedings’ of this Society, I showed how certain theorems, previously given by myself, might be employed to obtain formulæ for the sums of certain series involving the Fourier constants of a function. In the case in which the function is bounded, it was only proved that the formulæ hold whenever the series converge, or, more generally, when the summation is performed in the Cesàro manner (index unity). In a more recent paper, also published in the ‘Proceedings’ of this Society, “On a Mode of Generating Fourier Series,” I showed incidentally that the formulæ are still applicable when the function has every power of index less than 1 + p summable, provided only the index q , which occurs in the formulæ in question, is greater than 1/(1 + p ). Here again the theorem, as stated, contained the restriction that the summation was to be made in the Cesàro way. The main object of the papers in question was, in fact, to explain how certain methods might be employed, and these methods were in themselves inadequate for the purpose of removing the restriction. The theorems used involve the general theory of the integration of the Fourier series of a function term-by-term, when multiplied by another function. The coefficient n -q in the series Ʃ n = 1 n -q a n and Ʃ n = 1 n -q b n considered, is, however, itself the typical Fourier constant both of an odd and an even function, which may be expected to possess special properties bearing on the matter in hand. A careful scrutiny of these properties has accordingly enabled me to take the step of removing the restriction above explained. The former of the main results, above stated, may be otherwise expressed by saying that, though the Fourier series of a bounded function need not converge, even if the function be continuous, it, and its allied series, will be made to converge, by dividing its coefficients by any power, however small, of the index denoting their respective places in the series. This affords a convenient necessary test that a given Fourier series is the Fourier series of a bounded function. In the same way we have a corresponding necessary condition that a Fourier series should have a function whose (l+ p )th power is summable for associated function.

A study is made in this paper of the elastic-plastic analysis of tubes subjected to various loads and temperatures. The kinematic hardening rule is used in the analysis and constitutive equations are developed for the tube problems. By piecing several elastic and plastic solutions together, various tube problems can be solved in closed forms.

Accurate neutron-diffraction measurements from crystals suffering from severe extinction have been used to test the recent general theory of extinction of Zachariasen (Acta Cryst. (1967). 23, 558). Analysis of these measurements indicates that certain of the approximations made in the theory are not generally valid and result in systematic deviations between theory and experiment, namely a marked angle-dependent effect and an inadequacy of the theory for strong extinction. The original theory is therefore extended to take these factors into account and to give agreement with the observed data.

SummaryWhy do parasites kill their hosts? During this past decade, research in three different areas; evolutionary ecology, medical microbiology, and population genetics has provided theory and data that address this and related questions of selection and the evolution and maintenance of parasite virulence. A general theory of parasite–host coevolution and the conditions for selection to favour parasite virulence has been put forth. Considerable advances have been made in elucidating the mechanisms of pathogenicity and inheritance of virulence in bacteria. The population genetic structure and the relation ship between pathogenic and non-pathogenic forms has been determined for a number of species of bacteria. We critically review these developments and their implications for questions of selection and the evolution and maintenance of virulence in bacteria. We postulate how selection may operate on specific types of bacterial virulence and present a general protocol to experimentally test hypotheses concerning selection and the evolution of virulence in bacteria.

Opening ParagraphIn this paper I do not propose to try to discuss those contributions made in the name of psychology to anthropological research and explanation which are already well known. Most of these have been made in the interests of some general theory. They involve assumptions concerning which there is legitimate and sharp division of opinion. My task is the less controversial one of attempting a survey of developments of psychological research which have taken place during the last ten or fifteen years, with a view to indicating the ways in which they may be of service to the anthropologist.

Abstract Humor is a tool to develop and to strengthen mutual  relationships among people. Humor sometimes is used to show superiority of a person, sect, caste or gender to other. This particular study about the linguistic structure of randomly selected jokes is made in order to highlight different stereotypes that are associated with the Pakistani wives. For this purpose a corpus of 60 jokes is developed by collecting jokes randomly in Urdu languge related to wives, using facebook pages,“Husband & Wife jokes” and “Laughing colours” and then twenty jokes are further selected under specific themes for analysis. These jokes are translated into English language and then analyzed using the Atordo’s and Raskin’s model of (GTVH) general theory of verbal humour (1991). This study also throws light on the fact that the stigmas attached with pakistani wives in the form of jokes are widely accepted and enjoyed even by  wives themselves that is giving way to their disparaged identity in our society. Hence, the aim of this study is to make the Pakistani women and the wives aware of the intensity of this situation and to provoke them to reject this practice of their disrespect and exploitation through verbal humour. This study will also prove helpful for the future reserch in order to check and make variations in the attitude of the participants and the receivers of the jokes to discourage jokes which are the source of disresopect for any other sect or gender. Key words: Verbal humor, GTVH, wives in jokes,

Abstract The general theory of formation of high molecular weight linear polymers by condensation between bifunctional compounds of low molecular weight to form products of large molecular mass has been so thoroughly reported in the literature that no extensive citation is believed to be advisable here. A very thorough study of this type of reaction has been made by Carothers and his co-workers on the formation of polyesters, the reaction being of the general type: One can, without taxing the imagination, conceive of the polymerization of isoprene or butadiene as belonging to the same general type of phenomenon, differing only in the fact that the reacting molecules are alike instead of different and that the “condensate” is one double bond per molecule. Therefore, no attempt will be made in this paper to distinguish between condensation and polymerization. When organic dihalides having CH2X terminals, in which “X” denotes a halogen, are caused to react with metallic polysulfides, MSxM, there usually results a linear polymer of high molecular weight.
