Pisan i ureðen u trostrukom ključu koji ujedno prati i trostruka struktura zbornika, on nas grosso modo uvodi u socijalne, tehničke, povijesne, ali i afektivne narative koji se obavijaju oko, ali i ...ucjepljuju u finalni proizvod, objekt - konzervu; govori nam pritom i o povijesti razvoja ribopreraðivačke industrije u korelaciji s usko povezanim djelatnostima poput ribolova te se naposljetku sidri u prikazu i analizi rada, odnosno njegovih mijena i mutacija u postindustrijskom periodu koji stremi k turizmu kao gotovo isključivoj privrednoj grani. S jedne strane to je specifična terminologija karakteristična za povijest prerade, poput garuma (riblji umak, začin jelima), ali i u suvremeno vrijeme korištenog rječnika poput svićala, barila, barake, sardelina, papalinka, šperuna itd., dok nas s druge strane približavaju idiosinkrazijama te industrije u nizu lokalnih miljea. Prerada ribe u Istri za vrijeme poratnog perioda vojne uprave, ali i tvornice smještene u nizu otočkih mjesta poput Plavice u Cresu, Fabrike i Ambalaže u Veloj Luci, Kvarnera u Malom Lošinju, odnosno tvornice u južnoistarskom mjestu Banjole, a koja je od 1927. do 1990. godine djelovala pod imenima Angelo Parodi, Učka, Istra, Mirna, većim su dijelom danas mahom nestalog industrijskog arhipelaga. Treća cjelina zbornika "Od rada ka povijesti rada" (Nataša Rogelja Caf, Alenka Janko Spreizer, Srečko Gombač, Dunja Janković, Iva Kosmos, Martin Pogačar i Tanja Petrović) vodi čitatelje u niz reartikulacija, odnosno današnjih interpretacija i pokušaja oživljavanja nekadašnjih fabrika i tvornica.
In December 2016, a panel of experts in microbiology, nutrition and clinical research was convened by the International Scientific Association for Probiotics and Prebiotics to review the definition ...and scope of prebiotics. Consistent with the original embodiment of prebiotics, but aware of the latest scientific and clinical developments, the panel updated the definition of a prebiotic: a substrate that is selectively utilized by host microorganisms conferring a health benefit. This definition expands the concept of prebiotics to possibly include non-carbohydrate substances, applications to body sites other than the gastrointestinal tract, and diverse categories other than food. The requirement for selective microbiota-mediated mechanisms was retained. Beneficial health effects must be documented for a substance to be considered a prebiotic. The consensus definition applies also to prebiotics for use by animals, in which microbiota-focused strategies to maintain health and prevent disease is as relevant as for humans. Ultimately, the goal of this Consensus Statement is to engender appropriate use of the term 'prebiotic' by relevant stakeholders so that consistency and clarity can be achieved in research reports, product marketing and regulatory oversight of the category. To this end, we have reviewed several aspects of prebiotic science including its development, health benefits and legislation.
Through the decades of working on processing Croatian terminology in STRUNA we have identified two problems that can generate an extremely confusing situation for the end-user. On the one hand, we ...have homonyms, where the same term is used to indicate multiple concepts. This problem was anticipated since it is well-known that certain terms can have different or slightly different meanings in various fields of knowledge or even in the same field. We handle the homonyms by allowing multiple entries in STRUNA. On the other hand, fairly often, we come upon the case where a new entry was introduced into STRUNA even though the term with a semantically identical definition already existed. In anticipation of this problem, we have, from the very beginning of STRUNA, implemented the option of accepting the existing terminological entry and associating it with the ongoing project. Unfortunately, for various reasons, editors rarely use this feature. Therefore, this issue will have to be addressed in the future. In this paper, we will present these problems experienced by the end-user of STRUNA and suggest possible solutions implemented in a certain project (field) and/or interfiled solutions.
While topics such as death, funerary cult, and the netherworld have received considerable scholarly attention in the context of the Ugaritic textual corpus, the related concept of life has been ...relatively neglected. Life and Mortality in Ugaritic takes as its premise that one cannot grasp the significance of mwt (“to die”) without first having wrestled with the concept of ḥyy (“to live”).
In this book, Matthew McAffee takes a lexical approach to the study of life and death in the Ugaritic textual corpus. He identifies and analyzes the Ugaritic terms most commonly used to talk about life and mortality in order to construct a more representative framework of the ancient perspective on these topics, and he concludes by synthesizing the results of this lexical study into a broader literary discussion that considers, among other things, the implications for our understanding of the first-millennium Katumuwa stele from Zincirli.
McAffee’s study complements previous scholarly work in this area, which has tended to rely on conceptual and theoretical treatment of mortality, and advances the discussion by providing a more focused lexical analysis of the Ugaritic terms in question. It will be of interest to Semitic scholars and those who study Ugaritic in particular, in addition to students of the culture of the ancient Levant.
