Middle Eastern Culture in Tasting the Sky: A Palestinian Childhood: A Cognitive Corpus Stylistic Study
...Show More Authors

Background: Understanding Middle Eastern Culture in literature is essential for engaging readers worldwide. A society's culture can be reflected through literature. To this end, this study aims to identify the stylistic patterns that reflect Middle Eastern culture in the selected data and to examine how the multilevel approach of this study helps to locate these patterns. Ibtisam Barakat’s Tasting the Sky: A Palestinian Childhood (2007) memoir is selected as the data of the study. Methodology: the cognitive corpus stylistic approach is applied to identify language patterns and stylistic features in the selected data. The multilevel method targets the language patterns that reflect the culture of the Middle East in the book, as well as the stylistic features of cultural constructions and examine how they are linguistically and cognitively encoded in the text, so that the gap found in the literature can be filled. Results: The findings of this study show that the frequent use of particular language patterns related to religion, food, and traditions in the text reflects the culture to global readers. Conclusion: The cognitive corpus stylistic approach is employed to analyze the data and achieve the intended objectives. Corpus stylistics plays an effective role in supporting and providing insights that strengthen the cognitive stylistic analysis. AntConc software helps to find textual evidence to support the analysis. Consequently, integrating bottom-up (quantitative analysis utilizing corpus tools) and top-down (qualitative analysis) methodologies yields a thorough and nuanced examination of the data in question.

: خلفية البحث: يُعدّ فهم ثقافة الشرق الأوسط في الأدب أمرًا أساسيًا لجذب القراء في جميع أنحاء العالم. إذ يمكن أن تنعكس ثقافة أي مجتمع من خلال الأدب. ولتحقيق هذه الغاية، تهدف هذه الدراسة إلى تحديد الأنماط الأسلوبية التي تعكس ثقافة الشرق الأوسط في البيانات المختارة، ودراسة كيفية مساهمة المنهج متعدد المستويات في تحديد هذه الأنماط. وقد تم اختيار مذكرات ابتسام بركات "تذوق السماء: طفولة فلسطينية" (2007) كبيانات للدراسة. المنهجية: تم تطبيق المنهج الأسلوبي المعرفي لتحديد الأنماط اللغوية والخصائص الأسلوبية في البيانات المختارة. ويستهدف المنهج متعدد المستويات الأنماط اللغوية التي تعكس ثقافة الشرق الأوسط في الكتاب، بالإضافة إلى الخصائص الأسلوبية للبنى الثقافية، ودراسة كيفية ترميزها لغويًا ومعرفيًا في النص، وذلك لسدّ الفجوة الموجودة في الأدب. النتائج: تُظهر نتائج هذه الدراسة أن الاستخدام المتكرر لأنماط لغوية معينة تتعلق بالدين والطعام والتقاليد في النص يعكس الثقافة للقراء العالميين. الاستنتاجات: يُستخدم المنهج الأسلوبي المعرفي القائم على تحليل النصوص لتحليل البيانات وتحقيق الأهداف المرجوة. يلعب علم أسلوب النصوص دورًا فعالًا في دعم التحليل الأسلوبي المعرفي وتقديم رؤى تُعززه. يُساعد برنامج AntConc في إيجاد أدلة نصية تدعم التحليل. بالتالي، يُؤدي دمج المنهجيات التصاعدية (التحليل الكمي باستخدام أدوات تحليل النصوص) والتنازلية (التحليل النوعي) إلى فحص دقيق وشامل للبيانات قيد الدراسة.

Reaction pathways and transition states of the C-C and C-H bond cleavage in the aromatic pyrenemolecule - A Density Functional study
...Show More Authors

The activation and reaction energies of the C-C and C-H bonds cleavage in pyrene molecule are calculated applying the Density Functional Theory and 6-311G Gaussian basis. Different values for the energies result for the different bonds, depending on the location of the bond and the structure of the corresponding transition states. The C-C bond cleavage reactions include H atom migration, in many cases, leading to the formation of CH2 groups and H-C≡C- acetylenic fragments. The activation energy values of the C-C reactions are greater than 190.00 kcal/mol for all bonds, those for the C-H bonds are greater than 160.00 kcal/mol. The reaction energy values for the C-C bonds range between 56.497 to 191.503 kcal/mol. As for the C-H cleavage rea

A Comparison Study for The Performance of Polyethersulfone Ultrafiltration Mixed Matrix Membranes in The Removal of Heavy Metal Ions from Aqueous Solutions
...Show More Authors

Polyethersulfone (PES) ultrafiltration membrane blending NaX zeolite crystals as a hydrophilic additive was examined for zinc (II) and lead ions Pb (II) removal from aqueous solutions. The effect of NaX zeolite content on the permeation flux and removal efficiency was studied. The results showed that adding zeolite to the polymer matrix enhanced the permeation flux. The permeation flux of all the zeolite/PES matrix membranes was higher than the pristine membrane. No significant improvement was observed in the removal of Zn (II) ions using all prepared membranes as the removal percentage did not raise above 29.2%. However, the removal percentage of Pb (II) ions was enhanced to 97% using a membrane containing 0.9%wt. zeolite. Also, it was
