LANGUAGE NOTE | Document text in English ; abstract also in Chinese. 新興的人類胚胎研究技術中，14天限制是一個避免公眾爭議的政治決定。伊爾蒂斯(Ana S. Iltis)、馬修斯(Kirstin R.W. Matthews) 和洛伊(Sam Lowe)質疑國際幹細胞學會(ISSCR) 2021年新推的指引取消14天限制。這更改既未得到廣泛公眾支持，又未能顯示對人類胚胎研究各方觀點的尊重。故其政治合法性成疑。本評論反駁，新推的指引開設了若干會議和討論會，尊重各持分者的觀點。更重要的是，從儒家的賢能政治的觀點而言，廣泛公眾支持不等同於民主管治中的強共識，故伊爾蒂斯等人受限於民主原則，對廣泛公眾支持的定義過嚴。

This article takes the multi-dimensional (MD) analysis approach to explore the textual variations between native and non-native English abstracts on the basis of a balanced corpus containing English abstracts written by native English and native Chinese writers from twelve academic disciplines. A total of 47 out of 163 linguistic features are retained after factor analysis, which underlies a seven-dimension framework representing seven communicative functions. The results show that the two types of abstracts demonstrate significant differences in five out of the seven dimensions. To be more specific, native English writers display a more active involvement and commitment in presenting their ideas than Chinese writers. They also use intensifying devices more frequently. In contrast, Chinese writers show stronger preferences for conceptual elaboration, passives and abstract noun phrases no matter whether the two types of data are examined as a whole or whether variations across disciplines are taken into account. The results are discussed in relation to the possible reasons and suggestions for English abstract writing in China. Methodologically, this study innovatively expands on Biber's (1988) MD analytical framework by integrating colligation in addition to grammatical and semantic features.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Mindfulness is a phenomenon increasingly attracting interest in Denmark. It is offered by many different types of providers. This research categorizes in a complete sample of mindfulness providers in Aarhus the way in which these providers communicate their affiliation with mindfulness as respectively Buddhism, spirituality or a-religious technique. This is done using the criteria’s authorization, text reference and visual reference. The article's research shows that mindfulness is offered as a-religious technique, but claims simultaneously, based on Hornborg and Durkheim, that even this alleged a-religiosity can be considered religious.DANSK RESUMÉ: Mindfulness er et fænomen i vækst. Den udbydes af mange forskellige typer af udbydere. Denne undersøgelse kategoriserer i et komplet sample af mindfulness-udbydere i Aarhus måden hvorpå disse udbydere kommunikerer deres tilhørsforhold til mindfulness som henholdsvis buddhisme, spiritualitet eller a-religiøs teknik. Dette gøres ved hjælp af kriterier inden for autorisation, tekst- og visuelle referencer. Artiklens undersøgelse viser, at mindfulness udbydes som a-religiøs teknik, men hævder samtidigt med udgangspunkt i Hornborg og Durkheim, at selv denne påståede a-religiøsitet kan kaldes religiøs.

Groups embracing ideas that do not conform to the ideas prevalent in the society, may choose to keep some of their views secret from the rest of the society in order to avoid outside pressure. Alawites in the Islamic world have developed a similar reflex both to protect themselves from outside pressure and to maintain discipline within their own group. This paper tackles the notion of secret based on a passage found in the introduction of a Futuwwat Namah we came across in the Futuwwat Namah collection Number 8602 in the National Library Manuscripts Collection. The passage tells about how the Prophet disclosed to Ali some of the secrets he received during his dialogue with God in the Night of Ascension. Protecting this secret was deemed very important and although the nature of the secret is not to be found in any written or oral source, measures were taken to protect it from non-Alawites and penalties were set for those would reveal it. In this paper, the passage in question is transliterated in Modern Turkish Alphabet and presented to the reader. Also, there is a discussion of the nature of this secret and what this secret could be in the light of written Alawite sources namely Buyruks of Imam Jafar and Sheikh Safi and some modern works.Extended English abstract is in the end of PDF (TURKISH) file. ÖzetToplumun genel düşüncesi dışında fikirlere sahip olan gruplar dışarıdan gelebilecek baskılara maruz kalmamak için görüşlerinden en azından bazılarını toplumun diğer bireylerinden gizleme yoluna gitmişlerdir. İslam dünyasının içinde yer alan Aleviler hem kendilerini dış baskılardan koruyabilmek hem de kendi grup disiplinlerini sağlayabilmek adına bu yönde refleks geliştirmişlerdir. İşte bu araştırma, Milli Kütüphane Yazmaları arasında 8602 numaralı Fütüvvetname Mecmuası’nda yer alan bir fütüvvetnamenin baş kısmındaki Hz. Peygamber’in Miraç’ta Tanrı ile konuşmalarından bir kısmını Hz. Ali’ye sır olarak verilmesini anlatan bölümden hareketle Alevilikteki sır kavramı üzerinde durmaktadır. Başkalarından gizlenmesine büyük önem verilen sırrın mahiyeti ne sözlü ne de yazılı kaynaklarda yer almamasına rağmen, Alevi olmayanlardan bunların korunması hususunda bazı tedbirler alınmış, hatta sırrı açıklayanlar için bazı cezalar öngörülmüştür. Burada hem bahsedilen kısım Türkçeye aktarılarak okuyucuya sunulmuş hem de Aleviliğin yazılı kaynakları olan İmam Cafer ve Şeyh Safi Buyrukları başta olmak üzere modern çalışmalar ışığında sırrın mahiyeti tartışılmıştır.
