ОЛЕКСАНДР ФІНКЕЛЬ І СТАНОВЛЕННЯ ПЕРЕКЛАДОЗНАВСТВА В УКРАЇНІ

The paper is a tribute to Oleksandr Finkel’s signifi cant role in establishing Ukrainian translation studies as an independent academic discipline. Finkel’s pioneering work introduced a methodological approach to analysing linguistic aspects of translation, marking him as one of the early adopters of this approach. As a leading scholar based in Kharkiv, he produced the research in Ukraine which had a ripple eff ect throughout the Soviet Union and beyond. Finkel’s extensive exploration of translation as a scholarly pursuit aimed at creating a distinct academic fi eld within Ukrainian academia utilizing a burgeoning linguostylistic methodology. Drawing primarily from Finkel’s published works and manuscripts, the paper organizes his perspectives around the core areas of translation studies: theory, criticism, and pedagogy. His application of linguostylistics delves deep into fundamental translation phenomena such as equivalence, text types, translation multiplicity, the translator’s role, intertextuality, and textual dynamics. In the framework of George Steiner’s classifi cation of translation studies periods, Finkel’s ideas align most closely with the third period, characterized by a linguistic approach to translation theory. Early on, he interconnects translation with stylistics and linguistics, later evolving into linguostylistics. Key inquiries in his work include the nature of translation, the smallest unit of translation, the linguistic structure of text elements like words and sentences, and how linguistic elements shape historical cultural realities. Key words: translation theory, equivalence, text types, translation quality assessment, translation didactics.

Bringing back the tribe: why we should not abandon the study of tribes in the Arab world

Once broadly applied, the term “tribe” has been discredited and is now rarely used in the social sciences. Critics argue that the concept is vague, is evocative of primitive and backwards connotations, and has been inappropriately applied to societies that are not “tribal.” While these criticisms are well-founded and legitimate, I argue in this Perspective piece that we must not abandon the study of tribes in the Arab world. The concept of “tribe” continues to be salient for Arab citizens and one that they aptly assign to themselves. To address criticisms of previous studies, I offer three ways to reform scholarly pursuit on tribes: (1) adopting a thin conception of tribe (2) treating the concept as a dynamic not static unit and (3) being led by on-the-ground reality and not by theoretical biases regarding the applicability of this term.

Being a Commodity

The qin 琴, a seven-stringed plucked musical instrument, occupies a unique status in Chinese cultural history. By the time it was established as the musical embodiment of classical tradition and literati culture in the Song dynasty, it had become an exchangeable commodity. While literary writings composed before the Song rarely focused on its monetary value, the unprecedentedly vibrant commercial world recast the qin, hitherto an aristocratic or scholarly pursuit, as a commodity that affected the life of the literati. This article examines how the literati worked through the conflicting values brought by the commodification of the qin to create and reinterpret its new meaning as an object with both cultural and monetary value. The commercial mechanism that the literati took part in also brought about changing characterizations in the connoisseurship of the qin. The astute perception of sound was no longer the sole criterion for appraisal, which now included familiarity with the qin’s physicality and knowledge of its craftsmanship. Behind the ostensible monopoly of the literati discourse on the qin, there was an economic and social network in which different groups participated—groups that together defined the cultural and commercial values of the qin.

The role of cell‐free DNA in non‐invasive diagnosis of urinary tract infection

AbstractUrinary tract infection (UTI) constitutes a pervasive health concern. UTIs are dichotomously classified into upper and lower strata, and further categorized as either complicated or uncomplicated. Upper UTIs predominantly afflict the renal and ureteral domains, typified by conditions exemplified in pyelonephritis, whereas lower UTIs manifest within the confines of the urethra and bladder. The conventional diagnosis of UTIs relies upon clinical manifestations and urine culture. Common symptoms encompass dysuria, frequent micturition, hematuria, and suprapubic discomfort. Urine culture serves to identify the specific pathogens instigating the infection and assess their antibiotic susceptibility. However, this procedural protocol generally necessitates an approximate duration of 24 h, coupled with an additional 24‐h interval for antibiotic susceptibility testing. In contradistinction, the detection of cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) in the circulatory system presents a potential avenue for non‐invasive diagnostic modalities. Notwithstanding, cfDNA emanates from deteriorating cells, affording insights into the extant cellular demise within the organism. Extensive scholarly inquiry has established a positive correlation between cfDNA concentration in the bloodstream and the incidence of cell death in conditions, such as severe traumas, sepsis, aseptic inflammation, myocardial infarction, and stroke. However, limited investigative effort has been devoted to elucidating the diagnostic potential of cfDNA in the context of UTIs. Consequently, the concentration and constitution of plasma cfDNA harbor substantial promise for non‐invasively diagnosing UTIs. In summation, the utilization of cfDNA in UTI diagnosis remains an incipient area of scholarly pursuit, underscoring the imperative for further research to elucidate the prospective role of plasma cfDNA in non‐intrusively discerning UTIs.

Intersectional sociodemographic and neurological relationships in the naming ability of persons with post-stroke aphasia

IntroductionSignificant attention has been given to the role of brain function and disruption in determining performance on naming tasks among individuals with aphasia. However, scholarly pursuit of a neurological explanation has overlooked the fundamental cornerstone of individual health—the underlying social, economic, and environmental factors that shape how they live, work, and age, also known as the social determinants of health (SDOH). This study examines the correlation between naming performance and these underlying factors. MethodsIndividual level data from the 2010 Moss Aphasia Psycholinguistic Project Database (MAPPD) was matched with the 2009–2011 Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS) using a propensity score algorithm based on functional, health, and demographic characteristics. Multilevel, generalized, nonlinear regression models were applied to the resulting data set to assess the correlation between the Boston Naming Test (BNT) percentile score and age, income, sex, race, household size, marital status, aphasia type, and region of residence. Poisson regression models with bootstrapped standard errors were used to estimate these relationships ResultsDiscrete dependent variable estimation with non-normal prior specification included individual level (age, marital status, years of education), socioeconomic (family income), health (aphasia type), household (family size), and environmental (region of residence) characteristics. Regression results indicated that, relative to individuals with Wernicke's, individuals with Anomic (0.74, SE = 0.0008) and Conduction (0.42, SE = 0.0009) aphasia performed better on the BNT. While age at the time of testing was not significantly correlated, higher income level (0.15, SE = 0.0003) and larger family size (0.002, SE = 0.002) was associated with higher BNT score percentiles. Finally, Black persons with aphasia (PWA) (-0.0124, SE = 0.0007) had lower average score percentiles when other factors were held constant. ConclusionsThe findings reported here suggest higher income and larger family size are associated with better outcomes. As expected, aphasia type was significantly associated with naming outcomes. However, poorer performance by Black PWA and individuals with low income suggests that SDOH can play a critical role (positive and negative) in naming impairment in some populations with aphasia.

Processing & Production of Scientific Data: An historical marriage, now in a permanent divorce?

Once upon a time, the same person generated and then processed data arising from an original scholarly pursuit. For example: an early modern astronomer predicted sky phenomena based on their observation; a ship's navigator plotted a course using readings from their instruments; and a natural philosopher uncovered laws of nature from basic physical measurements. These measuring and calculating skills would have been studied in tandem before being applied, thus ensuring their wedded deployment. And fittingly, when any results became known, "who got credit" would have been clear.

Facing the future through entrepreneurship theory: A prospective inquiry framework
