Relevant information in the era of a pandemic: ways of broad-casting and peculiarities of perception

The choice of the subject of the article is due to the fact that numerous recent publications actively analyze the reaction of people to information about COVID-19, but do not investigate the stage of actually receiving and understanding this information by citizens. Using the example of the publication in the regional electronic edition of the telegram channel of the regional administration, some factors affecting the perception and understanding of information concerning the health of schoolchildren and teachers are studied. An empirical characteristic of the change in understanding is given when the logic of constructing a message changes - the combination of substantive and procedural logic. Possible directions for further study of the problem are formulated.

Structural and Organizational and Content Characteristics of Media Discourse on the Example of Web-Site «The Guardian».

The article considers the issues of media discourse on the example of the web-site «The Guardian» as a product of convergent journalism. Structural and organizational as well as content peculiarities of this electronic edition are described on the basis of the integrative methods of discourse analysis. These methods include formal criteria, criteria of multimedia technologies, extra- and intralinguistic criteria. The analysis of the representation of these criteria allowed to reveal its organizational structure and design; the degree of presence and severity of the phenomenon of convergence; the specificity of content via the realization on the site a range of discourse categories such as audience, communicative purpose, self-identification, space, time, intertextuality, intereventness, intersubjectivity. The category “stylistic range” reflects the text organization of the online edition.

HIDROQUÍMICA DE AGUAS SUBTERRÁNEAS EN EL MUNICIPIO DE SAN PEDRO, SANTA CRUZ, BOLIVIA: DETERMINACIÓN DE FLUORURO

El agua subterránea es la principal fuente de consumo en muchos centros urbanos y áreas rurales de Bolivia, tal es el caso del Municipio de San Pedro ubicado en el departamento de Santa Cruz.

Los resultados mostraron valores de pH ligeramente alcalinos comprendidos entre 7,8 y 8,6 y la conductividad eléctrica mostró valores en un rango que va de 313,3 a 1189 µS/cm. Las aguas son predominantemente del tipo Na-HCO3 y contienen elevadas concentraciones de fluoruro (F- ) en un rango que va de 2,1 a 6,4 mg/L excediendo el valor máximo recomendado por la Organización Mundial para la Salud (OMS). Cálculos de índice de saturación (IS) muestran que la fase mineral que podría dar origen al elevado contenido de F- en agua es la [F-Apatita].

Où en est l’édition de textes patristiques grecs aujourd’hui ? Théories, méthodes et pratiques

An overview of recent editions of Greek texts from Christian Antiquity is provided, with particular attention to the question of theories and methods of edition. First, we recall the main methods involved: the Lachmannian method, corrected or not by historical approaches, New Philology, etc. In a second step, we go through some large collections of editions of patristic texts, in order to identify their specificities and study their main recent productions; these are successively examined: Athanasius Werke; Gregorii Nysseni Opera; Die griechischen christlichen Schriftsteller der ersten Jahrhunderte; Patristische Texte und Studien; Corpus christianorum, series graeca; Sources chrétiennes. Some special cases are then considered: single-witness texts; treatment of overabundant traditions and phylogenetic methods; partial editions; anthologies, exegetical catenae and compilations. Finally, we propose a general reflection on the changes introduced in the editing process by the introduction of digital technologies, up to and including electronic edition itself.

Lexical diffusion in the making: the lengthening of Middle English /a/ during the eighteenth century and across the diasystem of English

A long /aː/ in pre-fricative and pre-nasal contexts in words such as fast, answer or after is one of the most distinctive phonological features of British RP and, to a certain extent, of Southern Hemisphere varieties of English (Trudgill 2010). The lengthening of /a/ has been particularly gaining ground from the eighteenth century onwards (Beal 1999; Jones 2006). The pronouncing dictionaries published between the eighteenth century and the present day allow us to trace its lexical diffusion (Labov 1994) across the whole lexicon. Drawing on the statistics of the ARCHER corpus, the lexical sets of the ECEP database, the full electronic edition of Walker's dictionary (1791), Wells’ Longman Pronunciation Dictionary (2008) and the Macquarie Dictionary (2015), this article examines the role played by the phonetic environment, word frequency, phonetic analogy and isolated lead words like draught or master in the spread of the lengthening of /a/. The results show that word frequency per se has no clear effect on /a/ lengthening in either pre-fricative or pre-nasal environments in eighteenth-century sources. The article also offers a possible relative chronology of the spread of that phenomenon to each phonetic environment within the bath set.

Traktat Parkosza. Eksperymentalna edycja elektroniczna

The fifteenth-century Latin manuscript presenting the proposal of Polish spelling formulated by Jakub Parkosz is an interesting challenge to the editors primarily because it introduces special characters that were not used later. The text of the treatise was presented and discussed in a book by Marian Kucała (available under open licence) which was used as the basis for an experimental electronic edition of the treatise in the form of an interactive PDF file, also available as a LuaLaTeX source. For transliteration, the electronic edition uses the existing Unicode letters with some additions from the private use area of the Medieval Unicode Font Initiative. This paper presents the rationale for the transliteration and discusses some possible alternative forms of electronic editions.
