The Short Story: A Very Short Introduction charts the rise of the short story from its original appearance in magazines and newspapers. For much of the 19th century, tales were written for the press, and the form’s history is marked by engagement with popular fiction. The short story then earned a reputation for its skilful use of plot design and character study distinct from the novel. This VSI considers the continuity and variation in key structures and techniques such as the beginning, the creation of voice, the ironic turn or plot twist, and how writers manage endings. Throughout, it draws on examples from an international and flourishing corpus of work.

There are at least two approaches taken by the government to deal with the problem of poverty or create prosperity, namely through fiscal policy and monetary policy. In this article, the author will examine the fiscal policies that should be carried out by the government using the reallocation method of state revenue and expenditure funds or the so-called APBN. Several Muslim figures have studied the problem solving, such as, As-Syaibani and Umar bin Abdul Aziz. However, the author focuses on the contribution of Muslim scholar who was born from Byzantine descent in 154/1858, namely Abu Ubaid, his brilliant idea as outlined in the book Al-Amwal in order to create the mashlahat of society in a country. By using a qualitative method with the library research approach and assisted by the final character study approach, it can be concluded that some strategies according to Abu Ubaid are a solution in creating social welfare, namely Zakat, fa'I, khumus, kharja, and jizyah. As well as regarding the import and export of goods, Abu Ubaid uses a strategy of not having zero tariffs in international trade, excise on staples is cheaper, and there are certain limitations to be subject to excise. This means that when goods enter into a country, there is a cut or excise that enters zakat.

Recent years, Polymer matrix hybrid composites have a greater attention in industry and research due to growing demand for versatile applications. The present work focused on the development of epoxy based hybrid nanocomposites. Nanoclay is another novel material that is widely used in the research. In this investigation, nanoclay dispersed hybrid composite materials has been studied for mechanical and wear behavior. Glass fiber and banana fiber combined epoxy laminates (EGB) were reinforced with nanoclay at different weight fractions of 2%, 4%, 6%, and 8% using compression moulding. The enhanced properties of the nanoclay hybrid composites were analyzed with other specimens. Water absorption character study was also conducted. Morphological study was performed using Scanning Electron Microscope. It was observed that an optimum result attained with 4 wt% nanoclay reinforced composite with an increase in tensile strength of 8.62%, flexural strength of 30.19%, and impact strength of 48.15% when compared to EGB. Further the wear resistance of 4 wt% nanoclay hybrid composite showed an increase of 19.4% than the EGB composite.
