В 2017 г. издательство Санкт-Петербургской духовной академии выпустило в свет учебное пособие протоиерея Георгия Шмида «Введение в книгу Деяний апостолов». Уже в 2020 г. вышло второе переработанное и дополненное издание, которое и будет рассмотрено ниже. Протоиерей Георгий является кандидатом богословия и доцентом кафедры библеистики СПбДА. В основу издания положен курс лекций по книге Деяний апостолов, читаемый автором пособия в Духовной академии Северной столицы. Издание посвящено вопросам исагогики книги Деяний апостолов в свете современных научных исследований в этой области. Учебное пособие имеет целью воссоздать историческую и культурную обстановку, в которой появилась книга апостола Луки, и продемонстрировать направления и выводы дискуссий западных академических библеистов по исагогическим вопросам. Для этого привлечены исследования из области библейской текстологии, истории и патристики. In 2017 the publishing house of the St Petersburg Theological Academy published Archpriest Georgy Schmid's textbook Introduction to the Book of the Acts of the Apostles. Already in 2020 a second revised and enlarged edition was published, which will be discussed below. Archpriest Georgy is a Candidate of Theology and Associate Professor in the Department of Biblical Studies at St. Petersburg University of Applied Sciences. This book is based on a course of lectures on the Book of Acts of the Apostles which the author delivers at the Spiritual Academy of the Northern Capital. This book deals with the esagogy of the Book of the Acts of the Apostles in the light of current research in this area. The textbook aims to recreate the historical and cultural context in which the Book of Luke appeared and to show the directions and conclusions of the discussions of Western academic biblical scholars on isagogical issues. For this purpose, studies from the fields of biblical textology, history and patristics are drawn upon.

This book explores the corpus of motet cycles composed and disseminated in manuscript and printed sources of polyphony c.1470–c.1510 (including, but not limited to, the motetti missales). The different chapters investigate issues of textual and musical design, function, and performance, at the same time illuminating the rich devotional and cultural context in which this fascinating repertory flourished. About the series Since its establishment in 1933, the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis (University of Applied Sciences and Arts Northwestern Switzerland / Basel Academy of Music) has been involved in the research of historical musical practice. The series Schola Cantorum Basiliensis Scripta presents topical subjects and research results mostly in monographic form, whereby a broad spectrum of issues and presentation formats is cultivated. The publications are intended not only for specialists, but also for students and interested persons outside the immediate field, and in this way encourage an in-depth occupation with the diversity of Early Music.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to discuss the concept of a pedagogical strategy called innovation pedagogy and examine how it has been and will be developed. The paper is an overview of the latest development of the innovation pedagogy approach. It provides a discussion of the changes in innovation pedagogy and, more generally, in higher education, including the changes in educational aims and involving a sustainable future as the priority in all education. Design/methodology/approach The research methodology is based on action research, participatory observation and on the experiences of the authors of the development process, which has taken place in one Finnish university of applied sciences during the past decade. Findings The implementation of innovation pedagogy requires time, participation of the whole educational community and management commitment. The study describes the results of the development work and states that the educational goals require consideration of values, processes and structures. Research limitations/implications Because of the case study setting and a specific cultural context, there are limitations to the generalizability of the findings. Originality/value Focusing on the development of the concept of innovation pedagogy helps to understand how education development takes place gradually and how it can simultaneously aim to respond to the demands of a sustainable future. This study extends approaches on research in education and innovation pedagogy.

До сих пор на русском языке не было ни одного специального пособия по неканоническим книгам Ветхого Завета, поэтому появление рецензируемого учебника нельзя не приветствовать. Тем более, что написано оно признанным специалистом своего дела, доцентом кафедры библеистики СПбДА Дмитрием Георгиевичем Добыкиным, из-под пера которого вышел уже не один добротный учебник по православной библеистике. Пособие имеет грамотную и хорошо продуманную структуру. Первая часть посвящена рассмотрению Второй книги Ездры, книг Товита, Юдифи, Премудрости Соломона, Премудрости Иисуса, сына Сирахова, Послания Иеремии, Книги пророка Варуха, трёх книг Маккавейских и Третьей книги Ездры. Каждая книга рассматривается по следующему общему плану: 1. Содержание и богословие. 2. Авторство. 3. Время и место написания. 4. Язык оригинала. 5. История текста и толкования. The book is a work of great interest to the readers of the Bible, and it is a work of great value for the reader, and for the readers of the Bible. The more so because it was written by an acknowledged specialist in his field, Associate Professor at the Department of Biblical Studies of St. Petersburg Academy of Education Dmitry Georgievich Dobykin, from whose pen came many good-quality textbooks on Orthodox biblical studies. The manual has a competent and well thought out structure. The first part is dedicated to the Second Book of Ezra, the books of Tobit, Judith, the Wisdom of Solomon, the Wisdom of Jesus the Son of Sirach, the Epistle of Jeremiah, the Book of Baruch, the three books of Maccabees and the Third Book of Ezra. Each book is treated in the following general way: 1. Content and theology. 2. Authorship. 3. Time and place of writing. 4. The original language. 5. History of the text and interpretation.

This chapter situates Acts of the Apostles historically and examines previous scholarship on Jewish identity and Acts. It argues that Lukan ethnic reasoning—as mediated by the cultural context of Greek cities under Roman rule—sought to create an alternate construal of Jewish and Christian identity. This alternate identity integrated Christian non-Jews into the civic hierarchy. The chapter then surveys the scholarship on Jews and Judaism in Acts and looks at recent developments in interpretation that have emphasized the author's rhetoric rather than “attitude.” It also discusses four texts that highlight the value of ethnic reasoning and, scholar of ancient Christianity, Denise Kimber Buell's discussion of four uses of religious rhetoric in ethnic reasoning. Ultimately, Acts leverages the connection between gods, people, and places in its depiction of Jewish identity. It employs ethnic rhetoric in order to present all Christians as Jews and to privilege Christians as an ideal embodiment of Jewishness for the Roman-era polis.

The acoustical characteristics of cooling fans are an essential criterion of product quality in the automotive industry. Fan modules have to suffice growing customer expectations which are reflected in the comfort requirements set by car manufacturers around the world. In order to locate dominant acoustic sources and to reduce the noise emission generated by a shrouded fan configuration, numerical simulations and experimental investigations are performed. The working approach considers variously modified fan geometries and their evaluation regarding arising vortex flow phenomena and their effect on a decreased sound pressure level (SPL) in consideration of an improvement or the constancy of aerodynamic fan performance. Particular emphasis lies on the analysis of secondary flows in the blade tip region by post-processing CFD-results. Due to the large number of geometrical modifications investigated and the importance of highly resolved eddy structures, a hybrid approach is chosen by applying the SAS-SST turbulence model in URANS simulations. The SAS (Scale Adaptive Simulation) delivers LES (Large Eddy Simulation) content in unsteady regions of a RANS-simulation and exhibits not nearly the high computational effort needed to perform a full scale LES. An assessment of the actual propagation of noise emission into the far-field is made by performing experimental investigations on the most promising modifications. The acoustic measurements are carried out in a fan test stand in the anechoic chamber of Duesseldorf University of Applied Sciences. The aerodynamic performance is measured in a fan test rig with an inlet chamber setup in accordance to ISO 5801. The measured acoustical and aerodynamic performances are validated by the industrial partner. The results of the acoustic measurements are in turn utilized to determine indicators of noise radiation in the numerical simulation. Within this work an innovative geometry modification is presented which can be implemented into shrouded fan configurations with backward-skewed blades. The new design exhibits a reduced SPL (A-weighted) of approx. 4 dB over the entire operating range while showing no significant deterioration on the aerodynamic performance. While the design was registered for patent approval cooperatively by the industrial partner and Duesseldorf University of Applied Sciences, further investigations regarding variations of design parameters are performed and presented in this paper. All numerical simulations are performed with ANSYS CFX, a commercial solver widely spread in the industry. Methods similar to those shown in this work can be implemented in the design phase of axial fans in order to develop acoustically optimized fan geometries.
