<p>Monitoring of the coast for the protection of the in-land populations has been one of the main problems in the province of Almería during a significant part of Modern Age. Due to this was planned and developed an entire infrastructure defensive and observational in view of the arrival of pirates and corsairs to the coast of Almería. With the present work it is tried firstly to give importance to these structures from a landscape point of view, tourism and culture through GIS techniques to create view sheds. On the other, from overlapping each different view shed, their presence or absence, can give useful conclusions for the archaeology science, as a part of a research project on the visual connection between the coastal defenses and in-land populations.</p>

Considers the problem of the Orthodox religious identity from the point of view of the influence of five types of discourse, widely represented in the Orthodox semiotic picture of the world: philosophical, mythological, artistic, political and ideological. Selected types of religious identity: normative, marginalized, and folkloristically, and determined what type of discourse most pragmatically strongly influences the formation of a type of Orthodox identity. The authors come to the conclusion about the existence in the Russian Federation "rural" and "urban" Orthodox discourses. The first leads to the development of social strain in the area of religious identity and is the base of the formation polarisierung religious identity. The second sets the normative Orthodox identity, avoiding archaism and development of the centaur-ideas. This study was conducted in part supported by RFBR, research project No. 18-011-00164 on "Discursive study of religious identity." Designed for a wide range of sociologists, philologists, cultural studies and religious studies, as well as for a wide circle of readers interested in questions of religion.

Abstract In this article, we describe the main methodological steps taken in the InterPhonologie du Français Contemporain (IPFC) research project to build an international corpus of spoken French as a Foreign Language for research and educational purposes. We offer a brief illustration of our approach with a four-session longitudinal study of 12 beginner Japanese learners of French over two years, especially /b/ and /v/ consonants produced in two tasks (repetition and reading of an identical wordlist). Our results illustrate how our perception-based first-screening coding approach provides us with rich information about the developmental profile of the learners, taking into account the task (repetition vs reading), the position in the word (initial, medial, final), the perceptual phonetic characteristics, and ultimately the left and right phonological context of the structure under scrutiny. This work is the first step in an iterative approach to further test experimentally subsets of the non-target-like productions from an acoustic-perceptual point of view.

Resumo: O presente artigo constitui a formulação das hipóteses e das linhas de análise de uma pesquisa sobre os elementos de teoria da literatura constantes das reflexões de diversos escritores da literatura brasileira sobre o ofício de escritor. O corpus da pesquisa inclui tanto poetas quanto prosadores de ficção, num arco temporal que vai do século XIX à contemporaneidade, com vista ao levantamento de reflexões e posições autorais sobre temas que se agrupam em dois campos, correspondentes à poesia e à prosa de ficção, respectivamente: a) inspiração poética, uso de formas fixas e ritmos, versificação, conceito de poesia, conceito de lírica, poesia e invenção, poesia e  tradição, poesia e outras artes, papel social do poeta, poesia e tradução; b) narrador, ponto de vista, conceitos de tempo e de espaço ficcionais, construção de personagens, construção autoral, representação da realidade na ficção, gêneros narrativos, literatura de ficção e outras artes, ficção e história, tradições narrativas, papel social do prosador de ficção, narrativa e tradução. O corpus privilegia autores que não tenham sido ou não sejam críticos profissionais, mas atém-se àqueles que, num momento eventual de suas trajetórias, sentiram a necessidade de fazer reflexões sobre o próprio ofício, seja através de livros especificamente dedicados ao tema e suas subdivisões, seja através de cartas, prefácios, memórias, crônicas, conferências ou entrevistas. O objetivo último do trabalho é o de construir uma visão geral dos problemas específicos da disciplina Teoria da Literatura através das reflexões dos escritores.Palavras-chave: ofício do escritor, teoria da literatura, elementos da poesia, elementos da narrativa.Abstract: The present paper displays the main hypotesis and approaches for a research project about elements of literary theory gathered from personal reflections made by several Brazilian writers on the task of writer. The scope includes poets as well as fictional writers ranking from XIXth century up to the present time. The project aims at taking into consideration authoral reflections concerned to two distinct fields, linked to poetry and narrative fiction respectively: a) poetic inspiration, use of poetical forms and rhythms,concept of poetry, concept of lyricism, invention and tradition, poetry and other arts, social role of poets, poetry and translation; b) narrator, narrative point-of-view, fictional time and space, character development, mimesis, narrative genres, novel and other arts, fiction and history, narrative tradition, social role of writers, translation. The research highlights poets and writers who have never been professional critics, focusing on those who, by chance or for personal interest, in a certain moment felt the necessity of reflecting on his/her own authorial work through personal letters, prefaces, memoirs, conferences, speeches, interviews or even books specifically dedicated to the theme. Evetually the present research project aims at building up a very course of Literary Theory throughout reflections brought up by poets and writers.Keywords: task of writer, literary theory, poetic elements, narrative elements.

The Valcourt program founded in 1990 with the aim of supplementing existing semester and academic-year programs available through Collegiate University and providing an opportunity for students with as little as two semesters of language instruction to study in France. In this article, perspectives from Molise and Ashley, who along with five other participants from Collegiate, agreed to serve as informants in a qualitative research project which sought to understand–from their point of view–the transition they were making from language learning in an American classroom to language use in Valcourt and back again. The resulting data show, among other things, how truly unique each participant’s perspective can be, even when backgrounds seem similar.

Emergency Risk Management

<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> Disasters such as floods, large fires, landslides, avalanches, or forest fires are often inevitable and cannot be fully prevented, but their impact can be minimized with sound disaster management strategies aided by the latest technological advancements. A key factor affecting these strategies is the time, where any delay can result in dramatic consequences and potentially human losses. Therefore, a quick situation report of the disaster is highly demanded, but still not an easy task because - in most cases - a priori known spatial information like map data or geo-databases, are outdated. In addition, visual and geometric information on the current situation is needed to help rescue teams and first responders. From this point of view, we came up to the main idea of the joint research project ANKommEn and its extension ANKommEn 2 (german acronym for Automated Navigation and Communication for Exploration). The project idea embodies an exploratory investigation to be smart in providing correct and timely geodata that can help in emergency cases; especially in support decision making in emergency risk management. For this purpose, automated unmanned systems, both ground (UGV) and airborne (UAV), are being developed to provide up-to-date information of rescue scenarios.</p>

Argentine Art

Grey literature, documentation published outside traditional commercial channels, is not very often taken into account by art librarians in Argentina, judging by searches on online databases. However, experience with grey literature at the Fundación Espigas, the highly specialized Argentinian art information center in Buenos Aires, is changing this point of view. The Center’s database offers access to a great corpus of such publications, especially to ephemera such as private view cards, pamphlets, auction catalogues, catalogues of solo and group exhibitions and posters. This ‘minimal documentary information’ has an important place as a resource, and would prove invaluable for any research project on Argentine art in the future. Indeed this material is not grey but unexpectedly brilliant at providing rich and hidden information.

And Control

For the industrial adoption of laser welding technology, it is important that the yards achieve full control of the process and that they and the classification societies reach a level of confidence in the technology to permit a reduced level of quality controls after the welds have been performed. This would lead to a practicable and easier implementation of the technology in the industrial field. This is the approach that two EU yards, Odense Steel Shipyard and Fincantieri, had in mind while developing, with the partnership of important EU research institutes and classification societies, the EU-supported research project Shipbuilding Laser Welds: An Integrated System for Assurance and Control of Quality (SHILWACQ). The author, who was the coordinator of the project, explains, from the point of view of an end user shipyard, how this approach was implemented following two main research lines:the quality assurance line, focusing on the "defect avoidance" criterion and the "defect acceptance" (fitness for purpose) criterion;the quality control line, concentrating on the on-line process monitoring and automated not-destructive-test inspection systems. The CO2 laser welding technology for small/medium-thickness steel hull components is addressed. The article explains the activity development and the scientific results achieved by the two research lines, as well as how these results have been tested and validated in the industrial environment.

Moral Ethos

As part of a wider Educational Action Research Project begun in the winter of 1992, following the publication of the police service statement of ethical principles and the attendant commentary on those principles, the research reported here focuses upon data patterns emerging from the development of two instruments, the ‘Bramshill ethics’ questionnaire and the ‘moral ethos’ questionnaire. These two instruments were specifically designed to provide police leaders and managers attending development courses at Bramshill with information concerning the ‘moral world’ of fellow practitioners. The emerging data patterns point to very real moral complexity and diversity among the middle managers of the police service. In addition, while some features of the moral ethos of police organisations are highly desirable from both a moral and a professional point of view, other aspects cast doubts upon the ability of police organisations to attain the status of quality organisations.
