  • Korean dramas, commonly referred to as Koreanovelas or K-Dramas in the Philippines, have significantly influenced and reshaped Philippine television culture since the early 2000s. Their impact persists in contemporary television programming, reflecting the transnational flow of media texts across borders. As media content transcends geographical boundaries, local media companies have adopted the practice of producing adaptations of foreign television series for their audiences. This paper examines the adaptation of the Koreanovela The World of the Married into the Philippine series The Broken Marriage Vow, both of which are adaptations derived from the British show Doctor Foster. Through this comparative analysis, I argue that the process of localizing these television shows to suit the preferences of the target audience serves as a tangible manifestation of transnational adaptation. Particularly in an era of globalization, where entertainment is still a thriving enterprise, thus traversing international borders, this phenomenon demonstrates the evolving nature of television content as it adapts and caters to diverse cultural contexts let alone a profitable means to generate an ailing entertainment industry, especially in the time of the pandemic.

  • Human infections with Lophomonas blattarum are rare. However, the majority of the infections occurred in China, 94.4% (136 cases) of all cases in the world. This infection is difficult to differentiate from other pulmonary infections with similar symptoms. Here we reported a case of L. blattarum infection confirmed by bronchoalveolar lavage fluid smear on the microscopic observations. The patient was a 21-year-old female college student. The previous case which occurred in Chongqing was 20 years ago. We briefly reviewed on this infection reported in the world during the recent 20 years. The epidemiological characteristics, possible diagnostic basis, and treatment of this disease is discussed in order to provide a better understanding of recognition, diagnosis, and treatment of L. blattarum infection.

  • Purpose: Virtual worlds are emerging in health care as an innovative way of helping clients take responsibility for and promote their own care. Yet, the concept of health promotion education in this environment has not been elucidated. Therefore, we undertook a concept analysis to discover the underlying attributes and contextual basis to generate a conceptual understanding of virtual worlds in the context of health promotion education. Methods: Using Rodgers' evolutionary view of concept development, we analyzed literature on virtual worlds that describe their use to discover critical attributes, antecedents, and consequences of this phenomenon. Eleven studies matching inclusion criteria were reviewed. Results: Analysis of the literature highlighted three areas of important domains: user, simulated environment, and education. This concept analysis extends our understanding of a virtual world for health promotion education. Conclusion: This study may help anticipate future trends in the use of virtual worlds in the context of health promotion education, serving as a stepping-stone for further research on this aspect of the study. The next step should focus on the development of an evaluation tool that can measure the factors identified in this analysis to determine their effects on outcomes and environmental interactions.

  • The purpose of this paper is to show the internal structure of the socalled sentential subject constructions in English. The constructions that we examine in this paper are such as It seems that John failed in the syntax exam vs. *That John failed in the syntax exam seems and It really stinks that the Giants lost the World Series vs. That the Giants lost the World Series really stinks. As seen above, the English verb seem does not tolerate the sentential subject. This is in sharp contrast to other English verbs such as suck, blow, bite, and stink, which do allow the sentential subject. There are several issues regarding these constructions. First, where is the sentential subject located? Second, is the sentential subject assigned structural Case? Third, is the sentential subject extraposed or does it remain in its base-generated complement position? Fourth, is the sentential subject a base-generated topic in the specifier position of CP, as Arlenga (2005) claims? In this paper, we argue that sentential subjects are base-generated in the specifier of the verbal phrase in case of stink-type verbs, while they are licensed as a complement to verbs like seem. We also argue that a sentential subject can be raised in the seem-type verbal constructions, if it were part of the complement small clause.

  • Sulayman Al-Bassam is recognized as the leading adaptor-director of Shakespeare in the Arab world of today. His adaptations have gained much attention around the globe. Celebrated cases of his Arab Shakespeare are The Al-Hamlet Summit and Richard III, an Arab Tragedy. This study intends to demonstrate that these two plays form a ground for challenging and irritating dialogue between the Middle East and the West. Shakespeare's Hamlet and Richard III are used as a discourse space for engaging with the inefficiency of Arab political culture and for exposing the economic machinations of the West. This space is constituted by the ongoing process of politically inclusive affiliation and exclusive disjunction, with the result that is not relevant to notions of synthesis and symbiosis. The process corresponds with that of distancing and identification in which the strategy of subversion is employed in order to unveil Western prejudices. Al-Bassam materializes Shakespeare's text as a gateway to understanding Arab society and culture, and to investigating questions as to how the modern Arab world could negotiate their cultural currencies with the West.

  • Near / Miss, Charles Bernstein's poetry collection, is replete with poems of distinctive styles and pluralistic forms in his idiosyncratic and artistic cosmos. With poetic antics, queerness, sarcasm, irony, and humor, the book showcases the motif of loss, chaos and trauma in postmodern America and the world. The multiplicity and multi-dimensional $M{\ddot{o}}bius$ effect in Near / Miss echo earlier Bernstein's poems, as well as poems by ancient and contemporary poets, with visual artists and musicians, and rabbis and Jewish philosophers. I argue that Near / Miss offers an apotheosis of echopoetics, which has been launched in his previous book Pitch of Poetry. Poems in the book reveal the dark and thick "pitch," namely the queer, the uncanny, the invisible, the disabled, the dispossessed, and the silenced poetic Other and make it explicit. The estrangement and alienation of $clich{\acute{e}}$ through diverse malaprops, mondegreens, non-sequiturs and fragmentations in Near / Miss aim at deconstructing the fixation of language so as to display the poetic Other. The motif of "nothingness" in echopoetics significantly multiplies its meanings. Nothingness mainly refers to the loss of origin, the defiance of tyranny, and the sublimity of the universe and the poetic Other. Melding his personal loss and misfortune, the current political discontent and the postmodern chaos in America and the world, nothingness in echopoetics resonates with American literary tradition and Zen with a healing and transforming power.

  • 이 논문은 송계나식(松桂懶湜)(1684~1765)의 "송계대선사문집(松桂大禪師文集)"에 나타난 문학 세계를 고찰하고자 하였다. 특히 선행 논문에서 미진하게 다루어진 사상적 면모와 그 시대성, 불가 내의 문학 교유 양상 및 문학지리학적 측면에 주안점을 두고 고찰하였다. 송계대사는 숙종~영조 연간에 안동 봉화사에 주석했던 인물로서 환성지안(喚醒志安)(1664~1729)과 낙암의눌(落巖義訥)(1666~1737)에게 참학하였다. 대사의 휘하에 많은 제자들이 있거나 저술을 남긴 것은 아니나, 조선후기 교학의 수준이 심화되는 과정에서 강원의 이력과정을 충실히 이수함으로써 자신의 사상적 기반을 마련했고, 화엄학을 연찬하여 "화엄경칠처구회품목(華嚴經七處九會品目)"을 편찬하기도 하였다. 만년에는 정토신앙에 귀의한 것도 확인된다. 이를 통해 대사의 삶과 저술, 사상적 경향이 선 화엄 정토의 삼문겸수(三門兼修)라는 18세기 한국 불교의 특징을 잘 반영하고 있음을 확인할 수 있다. 대사는 시문을 꾸준히 연마하여 자신의 문학 세계를 구축해 나갔고 그 결과가 문집에 반영되어 있다. 송계대사는 평생 수행자의 길을 걸어가면서도 한편으로는 조선후기 영남의 안동이라는 특정한 시공간에서 문사로서 자신의 정체성을 구현해 나간 인물로 그려볼 수 있다.

  • The emphasis in environmental education for children should be on awareness, appreciation, and sensory experiences. By offering children opportunities to experience the elements of nature that surround them, teachers elevate children's comfort level and familiarity with the natural world. But many children have little contact with nature, because of urban living, hurried schedules, TV's attraction, and the low value most schools place on outdoor activities. So, teachers have to expand the real out-of-door experiences into the classroom by sharing and making accessible books focusing on nature and the natural environment. Namely, quality children's literature is an excellent vehicle for extending a particular experience or introducing new ones. Building on outdoor experiences through stories encourages children to explore more deeply what they have observed and experienced-concepts are reinforced, new knowledge gained, vicarious experiences provided. There are three-fold classification of environmentalism, especially environmental ethics, and three-aspects of the history in children's literature. The analytical results of this study are as follow. The environmental ideology in elementary Korean textbooks varies from 'egocentrism-didacticism' to 'ecocentrism-fantasy'. This finding has implication for selecting children's books and teaching environmental contents in elementary school. Therefore teachers and parents need to get ready to receive ecocriticism.

  • 이 연구는 어린이들이 읽는 동화책 속에 반영된 도서관과 사서의 이미지를 포괄적으로 살펴보기 위한 것이다. 이를 위하여 도서관을 배경으로 하는 우리나라 창작동화 14편을 선별하여 자세히 분석하였다. 분석 결과 동화속에 나타난 도서관은 대체로 최근에 새롭게 단장을 하여 어린이들에게 호감을 주는 외형을 가지고 있었다. 도서관의 역할은 독서활동에 편중되어 설정된 것으로 나타났으며 정보활용이나 문화활동 등에 대한 반영은 부족한 것으로 나타났다. 사서는 거의 모두 여성이었으며, 친절하고 적극적인 성향으로 아이들의 독서활동을 위해 노력하지만 교육자적 측면 등의 다양한 직업적 면모를 보여주지는 못하고 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 이렇게 동화 속에 반영된 도서관과 사서의 모습은 우리 사회의 현실 속에서 인식되고 이해되는 도서관과 사서의 수준과 한계를 그대로 보여주는 것으로 드러났다.

  • Mobile voting has been considered as a promising technology, but it has not been used widely or popular enough in the world. We think this situation is caused by immature technologies of mobile voting and no agreement among people in our society. In this paper, we reviewed literature on electronic voting systems in order to find out technical issues on mobile voting system, and we also surveyed people's opinions via the Internet in order to understand what they worry about mobile voting. From the literature review, we understand that the existing electronic voting systems did not consider security, robustness, and reliability issues enough. From the survey, we also get to know that people worry about "manipulation of the result of mobile voting" mostly. Our work can help researchers on mobile voting to consider the ways or technologies that convince people of the reliability of mobile voting.
