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.

A Study Of Corrosion Inhibition Of Low Carbon Steel In Washing Water Of Crude Oil Solution In The Presence Of Folic Acid
...Show More Authors

The corrosion behavior of low carbon steel in washing water of crude oil solution has been studied potentiostatically at five temperatures in the range (30–70)°C .The corrosion potential shifted to more negative values with increasing temperature and the corrosion current density increased with increasing temperature. Folic acid had on inhibiting effect on the corrosion of low carbon steel in washing water at a concentration (5× 10-4-- 5× 10-3 ) mol/dm3 over the temperature range (30–70)°C. Values of the protection efficiency were calculated from the corrosion current density .From the general results for this study, it can be seen that thermodynamic and kinetic function were also calculated (?G, ?S, ?H and Ea )

Balancing Heritage Preservation and Sustainable Development in Historic Cities: A Case Study of Old Najaf in the Context of Global Best Practices
...Show More Authors

Historic cities such as Old Najaf are challenged with balancing the preservation of their cultural and architectural heritage against the pressures of modern urban development. Being one of the major religious centers for Shia Islam, Old Najaf receives annual millions of pilgrims and tourists, pressuring its infrastructure and threatening its historic façade. The aim of this study was to explore the viability of integrated approaches that balance heritage conservation with sustainable urban development, and lessons learned from international best practices, as well as stakeholder perspectives on this issue in the face of these challenges. This prompted the study to identify the challenges and opportunities for the heritage preservation and

Study of the Anticancer and Antimicrobial Biological Activity of a New Series of Thiohydantoin Derivatives
...Show More Authors

        Recently, some prostate cancer patients have acquired resistance to the second -generation drugs (anzalutamide and apalutamide) prescribed for the treatment of this disease due to the emergence of the F876L mutation, which represents a challenge to modern medicine. In this study, a new series of 2-thiohydantoin derivatives were prepared through the reaction of different derivatives of maleimide (1c-4c) with isothiocyanate derivatives. The prepared compounds were diagnosed using FT-IR,1H-NMR ,13C-NMR, Mass spectra. The prepared series compounds has been studied against prostate cancer cells. The MTT assay was used to determine the activity of the prepared compounds against prostate cancer cells. The da

NiO nanoparticle synthesis by chemical method and characterized by XRD with crystal size 11.72
nm and grain size 13 nm from FESEM image also NiO micro used ,two NiO as an additive to evaluate the
possibility of producing photodegradable polymers, the practical application of solid-phase photocatalytic
degradation of polyvinyl chloride (PVC- NiO composite films) was investigated. PVC has a negative impact
on the environment since its polymer degrades slowly, yet it has a wide range of industrial applications and
the amount used shows no evidence of diminishing use. Thus, a synthesis of modified PVC- NiO micro and

A computational study on the potential application of Ca12O12 cluster for sensing of fungicide molecule
...Show More Authors

Density functional theory calculations are employed to investigate the impact of edifenphos molecule on the reactivity and electronic sensitivity of pure calcium oxide (CaO) nanocluster. The strong adsorption of edifenphos molecule on CaO nanocluster occurs by the sulfur head of the adsorbate, and the amount of the energy of this adsorption is around − 84.40 kcal/mol. The adsorption of edifenphos molecules results in a decrease in the values of Eg of CaO from 4.67 to 3.56 eV, as well as an increase in the electrical conductance. Moreover, the work function of CaO nanocluster is significantly affected, which changes the current of the field emission electron. Eventually, the recovery time is calculated around 99 ms at ambient temperature f
