Dominik Mokoš (1718–22.XII.1776) was a Franciscan monk and religious writer who also acted as preacher, vicar, teacher and chronicler in the second half of the 18th century in various regions of ...Slovakia (such as Nižná Šebastová, Stropkov, Kremnica, Pruské, Okoličné, Beckov) or as a missionary in various areas of Šariš, Spiš, Orava and Poland. He was one of the most prolific authors of homiletic literature in the second half of the 18th century in Slovakia. In his Marian, Christmas and lenten preaching, we can identify intertextual references to the Bible, patristic, medieval and humanist religious literature. This study focuses on how these sources were used by Mokoš to draft his sermons and how he applied their moral tidings to the particular situations that the believers in the 18th century were facing.
Pri novoj valorizaciji Crkvine, toga gotovo mitskog toposa hrvatske povijesti, ne će biti zgorega provjeriti može li ju se smjestiti u trokutnu prostornu strukturu (u smislu tumačenja Pleterski – ...Belaj). I doista, pet starohrvatskih crkava u Kosovu polju smješteno je na krakovima oštroga kuta od 23°27' i tvore trokut s odnosom između dulje i srednje stranice kao 1:1,6. Smije se zaključiti da je seoski svećenik/žrec/vrač, nakon slavenskoga zaposijedanja ovoga područja, posvetio novoosvojenu domovinu slavenskim vrhovnim bogovima (Perunu, Mokoši i Velesu) i njihovoj božanskoj djeci (Jarilu i Mari) određujući im njihova nova mjesta i tumačeći mitska kazivanja po-kazujući im pritom (doslovce kažiprstom) kako se i gdje zbivanja o kojima kazuju mitovi (konkretno: Jarilov trudan hod kojim ovaj izžmiče vodu iz zemlje) odvijaju u njihovu okruženju. To bi značilo da u Biskupiji moramo očekivati kontinuitet kulta bogorodice.
Ovisno o primarnomu izvoru koji se koristi u rekonstrukciji

re/konstrukcije južnoslavenske boginje. Naime, Helmoldova
Chronica Slavorum kao ...polapsku boginju upisuje Siwu (Živa), a u

okviru navedenih dviju mogućnosti protezanja polapske/ruske
boginje (Siwa/Mokoš) na koncept južnoslavenske boginje, namjera
mi je prikazati Nodilovu re/konstrukciju južnoslavenske dijadne

Music cultures today in rural and urban Mongolia and Inner Mongolia
emerge from centuries-old pastoralist practices that were reshaped
by political movements in the twentieth century. Mongolian
Sound ...Worlds investigates the unique sonic elements, fluid
genres, social and spatial performativity, and sounding objects
behind new forms of Mongolian music--forms that reflect the
nation's past while looking towards its globalized future. Drawing
on fieldwork in locations across the Inner Asian region, the
contributors report on Mongolia's genres and musical landscapes;
instruments like the morin khuur , tovshuur , and
Kazakh dombyra ; combined fusion band culture; and urban
popular music. Their broad range of concerns include nomadic
herders' music and instrument building, ethnic boundaries,
heritage-making, ideological influences, nationalism, and global
circulation.
A merger of expert scholarship and eyewitness experience,
Mongolian Sound Worlds illuminates a diverse and
ever-changing musical culture.

Background: Moko is a disease caused by the bacterium
Ralstonia solanacearum philotype II race 2, which has caused great economic losses and continues without proper management. So far there is no ...treatment to control the disease and the best solution is to avoid the arrival of the bacteria. This is done through strategies for managing the cultivation and eradication of infected plants, since the bacteria have the ability to spread through water, wind, and animals, among others. However, the main form of dispersal is infected planting material (hills).
Methods: For this reason, to investigate the dynamics of Moko disease in plantain, a population simulation model with nonlinear ordinary differential equations was presented, with disease prevention and population of susceptible and infected plants and associated economic losses over time.
Results: We found that replanting infected hills has a large effect on increasing the incidence of the disease and on production costs, in addition to generating greater economic losses. Both prevention strategies should be implemented in a medium proportion
( f=60% ; g=70%), in order to sustain a reasonable amount of susceptible plants over time. With this, the infected plants tend to be controlled, as well as leading to lower economic losses in general.
Conclusion: cultural control strategies in banana Moko disease, such as disinfestation of tools, footwear, weed pruning, among others, are important agronomic practices for disease control, however the identification of infected hills plays an essential role in preventing the spread of the disease.
In the 1830s an Irishman named James F. O'Connell acquired a full-body tattoo while living as a castaway in the Pacific. The tattoo featured traditional patterns that, to native Pohnpeians, defined ...O'Connell's life; they made him wholly human. Yet upon traveling to New York, these markings singled him out as a freak. His tattoos frightened women and children, and ministers warned their congregations that viewing O'Connell's markings would cause the ink to transfer to the skin of their unborn children. In many ways, O'Connell's story exemplifies the unique history of the modern tattoo, which began in the Pacific and then spread throughout the world. No matter what form it has taken, the tattoo has always embodied social standing, aesthetics, ethics, culture, gender, and sexuality. Tattoos are personal and corporate, private and public. They mark the profane and the sacred, the extravagant and the essential, the playful and the political. From the Pacific islands to the world at large, tattoos are a symbolic and often provocative form of expression and communication.
Tattooing the Worldis the first book on tattoo literature and culture. Juniper Ellis traces the origins and significance of modern tattoo in the works of nineteenth- and twentieth-century artists, travelers, missionaries, scientists, and such writers as Herman Melville, Margaret Mead, Albert Wendt, and Sia Figiel. Traditional Pacific tattoo patterns are formed using an array of well-defined motifs. They place the individual in a particular community and often convey genealogy and ideas of the sacred. However, outside of the Pacific, those who wear and view tattoos determine their meaning and interpret their design differently. Reading indigenous historiography alongside Western travelogue and other writings, Ellis paints a surprising portrait of how culture has been etched both on the human form and on a body of literature.

Bacterial wilt induced by the
species complex is endemic to Brazil, where it can cause variable losses in many hosts. Its economic importance, however, cannot be precisely measured due to Brazil's ...continental size, subject to variable weather conditions which directly affect disease expression. The objectives of this paper were (i) to gather scattered information on historical facts; (ii) to show the current distribution of the pathogen in the country, and (iii) to comment on future trends on the importance of the disease in economically important current and potential hosts, based on the pathogen's variability and the global climate change under way.
A population simulation model with non-linear ordinary differential equations is presented, which interprets the dynamics of the banana Moko, with prevention of the disease and population of ...susceptible and infected plants over time. A crop with a variable population of plants and a logistic growth of replanting is assumed, taking into account the maximum capacity of plants in the delimited study area.
