Tempera painting on canvas has played multiple functions throughout the history of painting. They were used to cover altars in Lent, to make canopies and ceilings for beds, to act as organ doors, etc. In the 19th century and in the earlier 20th century, they were used as adornment on walls of palaces and theatres, as well as sceneries in the latter ones. Generally, this kind of tempera painting shows large proportions, which demanded a specific methodology of execution. Treatises of the epoch display how the painter, provided with paintbrushes of long handles, as brooms, walked on the canvases while the execution lasted. At that time, pigments derived from the activity of modern industry were already in use, in combination with other materials traditionally used in the previous centuries. This article presents the working methodology and materials used in tempera painting on canvas, mainly during the 19th century, providing a knowledge base for this subject.

<p>O café é uma das bebidas mais consumidas no mundo. Desde o século XIX, o consumo da bebida cresce apoiado por inovações tecnológicas. Uma dessas inovações consiste nas máquinas de café em dose única. No entanto, essa tecnologia causa danos ao meio ambiente devido aos materiais utilizados na fabricação das cápsulas, fato que preocupa ativistas, políticos e consumidores. Diante deste cenário, o presente artigo analisa as inovações sustentáveis que a indústria do café tem desenvolvido para lidar com o problema. Para isso, foram analisadas qualitativamente as estratégias de sete marcas de café em dose única. Os resultados mostraram que as empresas líderes do setor optaram pelo desenvolvimento de estratégias de reciclagem das cápsulas usadas. Por outro lado, apenas duas marcas possuem estratégias abrangentes de reciclagem. Os principais pontos fracos da reciclagem são a logística e dependência da iniciativa dos consumidores. Outra solução encontrada por marcas menores é a utilização de material compostável. Nesse caso, também há limitações, como a necessidade uma usina de compostagem.</p><p> </p><p>ABSTRACT</p><p>Coffee is one of the most consumed beverages in the world. Since the 19th century, technological innovations have boosted coffee consumption. The single cup coffee machines are one of these innovations. However, this technology causes damage to the environment due to the materials used in the coffee pods manufacture, an issue that worries activists, politicians and consumers. Given this scenario, the present article analyzes the sustainable innovations that the coffee industry has developed to deal with the problem. For this, the strategies of seven brands of single cup coffee were analyzed qualitatively. The results showed that leading companies in the sector opted for recycling strategies for used coffee pods. On the other hand, only two brands have comprehensive recycling strategies. The main weaknesses of recycling are logistics and dependence on consumer initiative. Another solution, found by smaller brands, is the use of compostable materials in single cups manufacture. In this case, there are also limitations, such as the need for a composting plant.</p>

The research subject of the article is the ideas that the peoples of the Middle Volga region had about the human life cycle in the 19th century - processes of birth, initiation, marriage and death. The aim of the article is to identify the general (typical) and particular (unique) in these perceptions as categories that unite and at the same time separate the inhabitants of the region. The general expresses the universal features inherent in all ethnic cultures of the Middle Volga region. The particular describe the local properties that act as markers of the identity of each ethnic group. The boundaries between the general and the particular in the Middle Volga region have a symbolic designation, since the region had for several centuries a complex synthesis of the interactions between Western, Russian and Eastern traditions. The article's research methods are based on the principle of historicism. The author uses structural and typological analysis to determine the general and particular in the Volga peoples' ideas about the life cycle, as well as the comparative-historical, logical and retrospective methods. The novelty of this study lies in the culturological comprehension of their ideas about the human life cycle in the regional culture, formed under the influence of paganism, Christianity and Islam. An important role in preserving the ethno-confessional values of the inhabitants of the Middle Volga region was played by the peasant community. The author concludes that the spread of Christianity and Islam in the region under the pressure of state power and as a result of intercultural interaction had made it possible to develop the universal requirements for human living. In this case, the particular was preserved at the level of individual rites. The source materials used in the article can be useful for scholars, culturologists, teachers, students and specialists developing programs in the field of preserving the cultural heritage of the region.

In this paper, we analyse features of the grammatical descriptions in Manchu grammar books from the Qing Dynasty. Manchu grammar books exemplify how Chinese scholars gave Chinese names to grammatical concepts in Manchu such as case, conjugation, and derivation which exist in agglutinating languages but not in isolating languages. A thorough examination reveals that Chinese scholarly understanding of Manchu grammar at the time had attained a high degree of sophistication. We conclude that the reason they did not apply modern grammatical concepts until the end of the 19th century was not a lack of ability but because the object of their grammatical descriptions was Chinese, a typical isolating language.

Levantine immigration to Chile started during the last quarter of the 19th century. This immigration, almost exclusively male at the outset, changed at the beginning of the 20th century when women started following their fathers, brothers, and husbands to the New World. Defining the role and status of the Arab woman within her community in Chile has never before been tackled in a detailed study. This article attempts to broach the subject by looking at Arabic newspapers published in Chile between 1912 and the end of the 1920s. A thematic analysis of articles dealing with the question of women or written by women, appearing in publications such as Al-Murshid, Asch-Schabibat, Al-Watan, and Oriente, will be discussed.
