Abstract:
A 71-year-old woman was referred with abdominal pain and weight loss. An abdominal CT showed a 5-cm heterogeneous mass in the head of the pancreas with involvement of the superior mesenteric vein and artery. Her carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and CA 19-9 were normal. Two endoscopic ultrasound/fine needle aspirates (EUS/FNAs) of the mass diagnosed her with a mesenchymal tumour of myogenic origin but did not show features of malignancy. Frozen section analysis of laparoscopic core biopsies also failed to show malignant features, hence requiring an open biopsy which confirmed the diagnosis of pancreatic leiomyosarcoma (PLMS). She was eventually treated with radiotherapy. To our knowledge this is the only case in recent English literature of inoperable locally advanced PLMS that has required an open biopsy to formalise the diagnosis despite prior EUS FNAs. We include a review of the literature, highlighting the deficiencies of various biopsy techniques.

Abstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate the influence of the basic factors of age and gender in homophobic bullying behaviour, in order that recommendations for the design of anti-bullying programmes specific to homophobic bullying could be made. Design/methodology/approach – In total, 475 fifth year students (ca. 16-17 years old) and 561-second year students (ca. 13-14 years old) at six secondary schools in the Republic of Ireland completed an English-language translation of a questionnaire previously used in a Norwegian study of sexual orientation and bullying behaviour (Roland and Auestad, 2009). Findings – No evidence of “age-related declines” were found in reports of either bullying or homophobic bullying. Males were significantly more likely than females to report involvement (as both perpetrators and targets) in both bullying and homophobic bullying. Practical implications – It was concluded that senior secondary school students, as well as their younger counterparts, should be involved in anti-bullying interventions; that males should be especially focused upon; and that programmes specific to anti-homophobic bullying, potentially targeting pre-adolescent students, should be supported. Originality/value – This paper suggests evidence-based priorities for intervention programmes specific to homophobic bullying, accounts of which have been, to date, absent in the research literature.

Abstract:
Metachronous papillary serous carcinoma of the peritoneum (PSCP) after endometrial carcinoma (EC) is an extremely rare condition. Only three patients have been reported in the English literature. We present the fourth patient who had a more aggressive and fatal clinical course. A 79-year-old multiparous woman complained of progressive abdominal pain and distension after 5 years, subsequent to total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy for endometrioid type EC. Serum CA-125 level being followed routinely rose above 500 IU/mL. Abdominal and pelvic computed tomography demonstrated ascites, omental thickening, and nodularity. Paracentesis showed malignant cells resembling papillary adenocarcinoma. Omentectomy and bilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy were performed as cytoreductive surgery. The histologic slides of the totally sampled ovaries obtained from the first operation were reexamined and the corresponding paraffin blocks were re-sectioned but no tumor was detected. The microscopic appearance of the tumor in the omentum differed from that of the previous EC. Immunohistochemically, while the tumor showed reactivity for low and high molecular weight cytokeratin (CK) cocktail, epithelial membrane antigen, CK7, CA-125, and Ber-EP4, the immunostains for calretinin, monoclonal carcinoembryonic antigen, and CK20 were negative. On the basis of these results and the criteria proposed by the Gynecologic Oncology Group, the tumor was diagnosed as metachronous PSCP developed after EC, which corresponded to stage IIIC according to FIGO criteria for ovarian carcinoma. The patient received two cycles of carboplatin and paclitaxel and died 2 months after the cytoreductive surgery

Abstract:
We describe the first case of primary thymic adenocarcinoma with signet ring cell features. The patient was a 39-year-old Filipino male who presented with a huge anterior mediastinal mass extending to the left supraclavicular fossa, which underwent an incisional biopsy. Extensive clinicoradiological work-up showed no evidence of any primary tumor in other organs, and radiological imaging confirmed a primary tumor location in the thymic area. He later developed bilateral pleural and pericardial effusions and eventually died of his tumor. The biopsy contained a neoplastic growth of solid nests made of cells with prominent signet ring features in sclerotic stroma. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells were reactive for cytokeratin 7, carcinoembryonic antigen, and CD5 and negative for cytokeratin 20, TTF1, napsin A, α-fetoprotein, PAX-8, CD-117, CA19-9, CA-125, CDX2, p63, and CD99. No genetic alterations of ALK, RET, and ROS1 were found, nor was any ALK or ROS1 immunostaining detected, as known to occur in a fraction of primary pulmonary adenocarcinomas. Morphologically, this thymic tumor resembled signet ring cell adenocarcinomas of other locations, including, stomach, pancreas, and lung, but CD5 immunoreactivity strongly supported the clinical and radiological evidence of a primary thymic origin. In the English literature, only 58 cases of primary thymic adenocarcinoma are on record and this is the first report of a signet ring cell variant, which further broadens the morphological spectrum of thymic adenocarcinoma subtypes.

Abstract:
This thesis investigates how Old English poets understood the processes of signification and interpretation through analysis of depictions of poor interpreters and the use of 'sign terms' such as tacen and beacen in the longer Old English poems. The first chapter deals with the Beowulf Manuscript, the second and third chapters consider Elene and Andreas within the network of related poems found in the Vercelli Book and the begin- ning of the Exeter Book, the fourth chapter is on the Junius Manuscript, and the conclusion looks at the use of the 'bright sign' motif across all four major poetic codices. I suggest that there is a 'heroic sign-bearing interpreter' character-type which several of the poems utilize or ironically invert, and that poor interpretation is nearly always asso- ciated with hesitation, which often resembles acedia. I also argue that there is greater nuance in the poems' depictions of modes of understanding than has previously been acknowledged: Eve in Genesis B does not stand for the senses which subvert the mind, but rather models the limits of rational thought as a means of understanding God, and Elene does not depict a simple opposition of letter and spirit, but a threefold mental pro- cess of learning about the Cross with analogues in exegesis and Augustine's Trinity of the Soul. Finally, I argue that there is a 'bright sign' motif which functions within a brightness-sign-covenant concept cluster, whose evocation as a traditional poetic unit is not identical to the denotation and connotation of its constituent parts. These strands of inquiry taken together demonstrate how Old English poems invest signs with significance by tapping into a specifically poetic network of allusion.

Full text
Abstract:
Scholarship of the anonymous Old English prose Life of St. Mary of Egypt ranges from source studies and linguistic analyses to explorations of Anglo-Saxon female sexuality and comparisons to saints' lives translated by the monk Ælfric, but all of these studies have been based on either the text extant in BL MS Cotton Julius E. vii or on W. W. Skeat's edition of the Julius manuscript, Ælfric's Lives of Saints (1881-1900). There is, however, an as yet unedited fragmentary copy of the Old English Mary of Egypt in BL MS Cotton Otho B. x, a manuscript severely damaged by fire in 1731. Digital imaging of damaged manuscripts in concert with ultraviolet fluorescence and other special lighting techniques has been shown to be effective for restoring the legibility of previously inaccessible texts. By means of such digital facsimiles I have transcribed the text of Mary of Egypt in Otho B. x, have collated this text with Skeat's edition, and have discovered that Otho B. x contains textual evidence not found in Julius E. vii. In this thesis, I present my findings and discuss the significance of this new textual evidence for the Old English Life of St. Mary of Egypt.

Bibliography: pages 71-72.
This dissertation investigates the concept of Christian heroism as it appears in a number of Old English poems, through a study of the figure of the miles Christi. These poems present a specific Christian heroism which, though couched in terms culled from Germanic heroism, nevertheless exists in its own right and is quite different from it. Christ and his saints are seen as heroes in themselves (Christian servants obedient to the will of God) rather than as heroic warriors as they are usually regarded (Germanic heroes fighting for a Christian cause). They are leaders and heroes in the sense of servants, and not only like kings and warriors of the Germanic code. A study of some poems from the Cynewulf canon shows that the poets understood Christian heroism to mean more than brave battling for the cause of good; in essence, it is complete submission to the will of God.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the positive role of evil in select Old English Poetry, namely The Junius Book, "Guthlac", "Vainglory", "The Whale", "Juliana", "Judith" and "Beowulf". Using a background of Augustan and Boethian thought, each adversarial character is discussed with regard to role and imagery, but specifically in relationship to the protagonist. Evil plays a surprisingly positive role when it offers the protagonist the opportunity to defeat it. The protagonists' honour at the poem's conclusion is necessarily defined by the extent of resisting the antagonists. The hero must fight evil on two levels: the temporal in humans and the metaphysical in Satan. The thesis examines the various levels of victory and indeed failure they achieve, and concludes that of all the heroes only Juliana is completely successful. Although evil itself cannot be defined as "good", this thesis discovers that in its relationship with the human hero, it can indeed give rise to goodness.

Full text
Abstract:
Many Old English poems reflect the Anglo-Saxon writers's interest in who could exercise power and how language could be used to signal a position of power or powerlessness. In previous Old English studies, the prevailing critical attitude has been to associate the exercise of power with sex—the distinction between males and females based upon biological and physiological differences—or with sex-oriented social roles or sphere of operation. Scholarship of the last twenty years has just begun to explore the connection between power and gender-coded traits, attributes which initially were tied to the heroic code and were primarily male-oriented. By the eighth and ninth centuries, the period in which most of the extant Old English poetry was probably composed, these qualities had become disassociated from biological sex but retained their gender affiliations. A re-examination of "The Dream of the Rood," "The Wanderer," "The Husband's Message," "The Wife's Lament," "Wulf and Eadwacer" and Beowulf confirms that the poets used gender-coded language to indicate which poetic characters, female as well as male, held positions of power and powerlessness. A status of power or powerlessness was signalled by the exercise of particular gendered traits that were open for assumption by men and women. Powerful individuals were depicted with masculine-coded language affiliated with honor, mastery, aggression, victory, bravery, independence, martial prowess, assertiveness, physical strength, verbal acuteness, firmness or hardness, and respect from others. Conversely, the powerless were described with non-masculine or feminine-coded language suggesting dishonor, subservience, passivity, defeat, cowardice, dependence, defenselessness, lack of volition, softness or indecisiveness, and lack of respect from others. Once attained, neither status was permanent; women and men trafficked back and forth between the two. Depending upon the circumstances, members of both sexes could experience reversals of fortunes which would necessitate moving from one category to the other, on more than one occasion in a lifetime.

Full text
Abstract:
In the fifth century, after the departure of the Romans, according to tradition, which is based on the ancient written sources, Britain was invaded by the Angles and Saxons. This view has been questioned in the last century. The size of the ‘invasion’, and indeed its very existence, have come into doubt. However, this doubting school of thought does not seem to take into account all of the evidence. An interdisciplinary, nuanced approach has been taken in this thesis. Firstly, the question of Germanic raiding has been examined, with reference to the Saxon Shore defences. It is argued that these defences, in their geographical context, point to the likelihood of raiding. Then the written sources have been re-examined, as well as physical artefacts. In addition to geography, literature and archaeology (the disciplines which are most commonly used when the coming of the Angles and Saxons is investigated), linguistic and genetic data have been examined. The fields of linguistics and genetics, which have not often both been taken into consideration with previous approaches, add a number of valuable insights. This nuanced approach yields a picture of events that rules out the ‘traditional view’ in some ways, such as the idea that the Saxons exterminated the Britons altogether, but corroborates it in other ways. There was an invasion of a kind (of Angles – not Saxons), who came in comparatively small numbers, but found in Britain a society already mixed and comprising Celtic and Germanic-speaking peoples: a society implied by Caesar and Tacitus and corroborated by linguistic and genetic data.

Full text
Abstract:
This dissertation discusses the complicated relationship (known as the comitatus) of kings and followers as presented in the heroic poetry of the Anglo-Saxons. The anonymous poets of the age celebrated the ideals of their culture but consistently portrayed the real behavior of the characters within their works. Other studies have examined the ideals of the comitatus in general terms while referring to the poetry as a body of work, or they have discussed them in particular terms while referring to one or two poems in detail. This study is both broader and deeper in scope than are the earlier works. In a number of poems I have identified the heroic ideals and examined the poetic treatment of those ideals. In order to establish the necessary background, Chapter I reviews the historical sources, such as Tacitus, Bede, the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, and the work of modern historians. Chapter II discusses such attributes of the king as wisdom, courage, and generosity. Chapter III examines the role of aristocratic women within the society. Chapter IV describes the proper behavior of followers, primarily their loyalty in return for treasures earlier bestowed. Chapter V discusses perversions and failures of the ideal. The dissertation concludes that, contrary to the view that Anglo-Saxon literature idealized the culture, the poets presented a reasonably realistic picture of their age. Anglo-Saxon heroic poetry celebrates ideals of behavior which, even when they can be attained, are not successful in the real world of political life.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis reveals the considerable influence of contemplation (sometimes referred to as mysticism) on Anglo-Saxon literature, manifested through the arrangement of narratives according to the theological concepts of apophasis and kenosis. This is demonstrated through a lengthy contextual discussion of the place of contemplation in Anglo-Saxon spirituality, and close analysis of four poems and a prose text. Although English mysticism is commonly thought to start in the High Middle Ages, this thesis will suggest that this terminus post quem should instead be resituated to the Anglo-Saxon period. The first chapter seeks to reveal the centrality of contemplation to Anglo-Saxon spirituality through analysing a range of diverse material, to evidence the monastic reader borne from this culture capable of reading and composing the texts that make up the rest of the thesis in the manner suggested. The thesis places chronologically diverse Anglo-Saxon texts in a contemplative context, with close reference to theology, phenomenology, and narrative structure, to suggest that our interpretation of them should be revised to apprehend the contemplative scheme that they advocate: to cleanse the reader of sin through inspiring penitence and kenosis (humility and emptying of one's will) and direct the mind intellectually beyond the words, images and knowledge of the terrestrial sphere (apophasis), so as to prepare them for the potential coming of God's grace in the form of a vision. This reading is supported by the close taxonomical resemblance of each text's narrative structure. The thesis thus suggests that contemplation was central to Anglo-Saxon spirituality, producing an elite contemplative audience for whom certain texts were designed as preparative apparatus.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis explores the relationship between Creation and the saints Cuthbert and Guthlac in their Anglo-Latin and Old English vitae. It argues that this relationship is best understood through received theological exegesis concerning Creation's present state in the postlapsarian world. The exegesis has its foundation in Augustine's interpretations of the Genesis narrative, though it enters the textual tradition of the vitae via an adapted portion of De Genesi contra Manichaeos in Bede's metrical Vita Sancti Cuthberti (VCM). Both Augustine and Bede argue, with slight differences, that fallen Creation can be restored into prelapsarian harmony with humanity by way of sanctity. Each individual vita engages with this understanding of the Fall in distinct, though ultimately interrelated, ways, and the chapters of this thesis will therefore explore each text individually. Chapter 1 argues that the anonymous Vita Sancti Cuthberti (VCA) unites Cuthbert's ability to restore Creation with the theme of monastic obedience, linking the ordering of a monastery to the restoration of prelapsarian harmony. The VCA also seeks to create sites for potential lay pilgrimage in the landscapes of Farne and Lindisfarne by highlighting the present efficacy of Cuthbert's miracles. Chapter 2 argues that Bede's VCM not only reveals his early attempt to fashion Cuthbert into the primary saint for Britain, via a focus on Cuthbert's obedience to the Divine Office, but also that the restoration of Creation functions as a ruminative tool. Chapter 3 argues that Bede transforms the nature of Cuthbert's sanctity in his prose Vita Sancti Cuthberti (VCP) from static to developmental, influenced by the Evagrian Vita Antonii, and that Creation is adapted to function as the impetus for, and evidence of, Cuthbert's progression. Chapter 4 argues that Felix's Vita Sancti Guthlaci (VSG) unites the development of Guthlac with a physically delineated Creation, and that the restoration of Creation is elevated to an even greater degree here than in Bede's hagiography. Chapter 5 argues that the author of the Old English Prose Guthlac (OEPG) grounds his vita by utilizing a landscape lexis shared with contemporary boundary clauses, so that here the relationship between the saint and Creation has greater force; it further argues that Guthlac A uniquely connects Guthlac with the doctrine of replacement, consolidating links between his arrival to the eremitic space and the restoration of prelapsarian Eden.

Due to social distancing, teaching has become more challenging nowadays than ever before. Teachers try to search for different resources and use various methods and activities, with the aim to create interesting and adequate educational practices in the online environment. Teaching was moved from educational institutions to the online space, which requires not just an extensive creativity, but mainly additional teaching techniques and materials which enhance educational processes. Even though, literature was considered as an old-fashioned source and was deposed from the pedestal of educational resources decades ago, making space for more contemporary teaching techniques, it announces its comeback in the digital age. Different ways can be employed in order to teach the English language. In our paper, we discuss techniques of teaching English language via literature and its immersion into online education.

Abstract:
Background: Stroke causes severe damage to the brain, with prevalence in the elderly. Experts realized that infection by COVID-19 causes neurological problems, with cases of individuals diagnosed with stroke having also tested positive for Sars-CoV2, under 50 years of age. Objectives: To assess the increased incidence of stroke in post-covid-19 patients. Methods: This is a literature review, covering results on COVID-19 and stroke, from the last 2 years, with the descriptors “Coronavirus infections” and “Stroke.” 10 articles were selected in English and Portuguese from SCIELO and PUBMED. Results: There was an increase in the incidence of stroke in POST-COVID patients, pointing out that while a single health system identified five cases of these in a period of two weeks, in patients under 50 years of age; in other periods before the pandemic, approximately 0.7 strokes occurred over a twoweek interval in individuals under 50 years old, strengthening this hypothesis. Conclusions: Therefore, coronavirus infection causes neurological complications such as stroke. Thus, the performance of a multiprofessional team attentive to clinical and laboratory manifestations minimizes the risks of stroke.

Abstract:
Childhood depression is a very prevalent mental health condition in today's society. Its debate began to become relevant in the 1960s and, although there is no doubt about its existence, the subject is still little discussed. This paper aims to demonstrate the relevance of the subject due to its high prevalence and underdiagnosis. A literature review on Childhood Depression in Brazil was carried out based on research in Pubmed, Scielo, and Google Scholar databases, between 1989 and 2020, in Portuguese and English, using the descriptors: “child depression”, “symptoms of depression” and “treatment of childhood depression” combined. Textbooks, data from Ministério da saúde, the World Health Organization (WHO), and key articles selected from citations in other articles were used to compose the paper. From the data analysis, twenty-two titles that are directly related to the current work were selected. In Brazil, girls and children between thirteen and fourteen years old are the most affected by the disease. The DSM does not differentiate it from adult depression, despite the atypical manifestations of its symptoms in children. Families still have great difficulty on identifying this disorder the biggest obstacle is understanding and accepting that behavioral changes can be part of a depressive condition. Normalizing the discussion of the topic is important so that there is more information about the disease and, consequently, more knowledge is disseminated both to the medical community and the families of affected children. This way, it will be possible to prevent its appearance and, when present, facilitate its detection, improving life quality of those involved and avoiding negative outcomes such as child suicide.

Abstract:
Context: Ischemia of Percheron’s artery(PA) is a rare neurological occurrence that results in bilateral paramedian thalamic infarction that may affect the midbrain. Among the symptoms are altered mental status, vertical ocular palsy, and memory changes, as well as hemiplegia, cerebellar ataxia, and movement disorders. Objective: To elucidate a case of stroke of the mesencephalic trunk in an uncommon anatomical variant of the thalamus-perfurans arteries Method:Daily neurological and laboratory evaluation in addition to complementary examinations such as skull CT and skull MRI. We also performed a qualitative analysis of articles in Portuguese and English journals indexed in the following databases: PubMed (Public Medical Literature Analysis), Lilacs (Latin American and Caribbean Literature on Health Sciences) and Scielo (Scientific Eletronic Library Online). Case report: A 67 year old male presented with mild to moderate headache for 2 days, reporting chronic cough and decreased level of consciousness for 1 day. He was intubated (Glasgow 6) and sedated for diagnostic elucidation. The CT shows mild cerebral edema and MRI shows bilateral thalamic infarction affecting the PA. The clinical picture evolves to ischemic stroke of the mesencephalic trunk. Discussion: The bilateral infarction of the Percheron artery, as presented in this case, the neurological and neuropsychological manifestations are more severe such as akinetic mutism, thalamic dementia and loss of self psychic activation(Robot Syndrome). In these cases, the neuropsychological disturbance is best noticed when the patient regains consciousness. Conclusion: In the presence of a clinical presentation suggestive of bilateral thalamic infarction, the Percheron Syndrome hypothesis should be suspected.

Abstract:
Objective: Chemotherapeutic-induced peripheral neuropathy is one of the most common side effects of breast cancer treatment. Such a condition impacts on quality of life and has repercussions in treatment. The aim of this study was to correlate, by literature review, the risk factors and impact of peripheral neuropathy in women with breast cancer treated with taxanes. Methodology: This is a systematic review to assess the risk factors associated with peripheral neuropathy related to taxane. The literature review consisted of searching the MEDLINE database. The terms used were “neuropathy” or “chemotherapy” or “breast cancer” or “taxane,” using filters in accordance with the inclusion criteria. Only randomized controlled clinical trials were included in the selection, with full text available in the database, in English, published in the last 5 years, with women above 19 years old with breast cancer. Results: Six trials were included in this literature review. In total, 3,026 patients were evaluated and the main outcomes were to assess the main risk factors related to the shortand long-term effects of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy. Bandos et al. showed 41.9% of peripheral neuropathy within 2 years after starting treatment. Quintela et al. showed that patients with telomeric shortening had more toxicity related to paclitaxel. Hagoiwara et al. showed that peripheral neuropathy influenced lower scores on the quality of life scale. Ciruelos et al. showed greater delay and dose reduction in patients with neuropathy. Lam et al. showed a rate of neuropathy grade ≥1 in 67% of women. Conclusions: The results include presenting symptoms of peripheral neuropathy before the start of chemotherapy, the cumulative dose of the taxane agent, female gender, advanced age, body surface area, and hyperglycemia predispose to taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy. The heterogeneity between individuals with regard to susceptibility to taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy can be attributed to individual genetic differences.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The interdisciplinary approach encourages students to put into practice the new knowledge and skills they have acquired in the course of their education in different school subjects. It helps them develop abilities to find content and functional connections between processes and phenomena studied in different school disciplines. The present study aimed to establish the effect of the interdisciplinary methodology applied in the subject of Physical Education and Sport on the development of motor skills of boys in the second grade at primary school. The object of the study was the level of improvement of the motor skills of school boys in the second grade. The experimental group included 8 boys from the Primary School “Otez Paisii” in the town of Knezha, Bulgaria, where the new interdisciplinary methodology was implemented. The control group using the traditional education methods included 14 boys from the 120 Primary School “G.S. Rakovski” in Sofia, Bulgaria. The experimental methodology was applied for a period of two school years. The students were tested twice in this period; the first was in September 2020, and the second was in May 2022. The interdisciplinary methodology was specially developed to involve several school subjects – Physical Education and Sport, Bulgarian Language and Literature, Mathematics, English Language, Man and Society, and Man and Nature. The compulsory course program in Physical Education and Sport contains adapted educational content from the other school subjects, grounded on meaningful connections with them. The following tests were used to evaluate the students’ motor skills: 30-meter run, standing long jump (with a two-footed take-off), throwing a solid ball - 1 kg, 200-meter shuttle run, Т-test, sit-ups, depth of bending, and frequency of knocking. After processing the acquired test results, it was established that the methodology used for interdisciplinary education in Physical Education and Sport was very efficient in developing the motor skills of ten-year-old boys.

Abstract:
North-eastern Neo-Aramaic (also known as NENA) languages and literature are a prosperous and encouraging field of research. They abound with oral traditions and expressions that incorporate various spoken forms including everyday language, tales, songs, chants, prayers, proverbs, and more. These are used to transfer culture, knowledge, and community values. Some types of oral forms are idioms and fixed expressions. Idioms are extremely problematic to translate for a number of reasons, including: cultural and linguistic differences between languages; their specific connection to cultural practices and interpretations, and the difficulty of transferring the same meanings and connotations into another language with accuracy. This paper explores how to define and classify idioms, and suggests specific strategies and procedures to translate idioms from the NENA dialect Bartella (a local Aramaic dialect in Nineveh Plain) into English – as proposed by Baker (1992: 63–78). Data collection is based on 15 idioms in Bartella dialect taken from the heritage play Khlola d baretle teqta (Wedding in the old Bartella). The findings revealed that only three strategies are helpful to transfer particular cultural conceptualisations: using an idiom of similar meaning and form; using an idiom of similar meaning but different form, and translation by paraphrasing. Based on the findings, the author provides individuals and institutions with suggestions on how to save endangered languages and dialects, particularly with regard to the religious minorities’ heritage. Key among these recommendations is encouraging researchers and scholars to direct translation projects and activities towards preserving minority languages with their oral heritage and cultural expressions, which are susceptible to extinction.
