620 Rupert Shepherd dining in the Renaissance and, by their physical properties, demanded suitable deportment from those who used them; the complexities of caring for them also induced the creation of a series of administrative structures to facilitate their use. The same is true of the chests discussed by James Lindow, and the glassware and maiolica that was sometimes kept within them – necessitating a range of activities as they were moved between the sites of their storage and their use – and sometimes kept on display out of the chests. And, as we are continually reminded in today’s age of interior design, feng shui and television makeover shows, the appearance of our homes affects both how we regard ourselves, and how we live our lives. But perhaps the most striking examples of the ways in which objects could shape the actions of those who came into contact with them are found in Tessa Storey’s essay, where the jewellery which came to be owned by prostitutes was, on occasion, the impetus behind their selling themselves. Thus, we see from the essays in this section that the objects did not lead merely passive lives, as they were used and passed between owners; instead, the objects themselves came to exercise some kind of agency, influencing those who encountered them in various ways, from moving elegantly to prostituting themselves. 4 Ashmolean Museum 4 This adopts the vocabulary outlined by Alfred Gell, Art and Agency: An Anthropological Theory (Oxford, 1998). In Gell’s terms, I am discussing cases where the index acts as agent, and the recipient as patient (Index-A → Recipient-P) – and, as Gell reminds us (32), this formula is ‘fundamental and general’. For a discussion of the agency exercised by Benozzo Gozzoli’s altarpiece for the Florentine Confraternity of the Purification and St Zenobius in precisely these terms, see Michelle O’Malley, ‘Altarpieces and Agency: The Altarpiece of the Society of the Purification and its “Invisible Skein of Relations”’, Art History, 28 (2005), 416 – 41, particulary 431–7.

At the heart of this study is the fostering of learner autonomy in the language classroom, in particular how learner autonomy can be developed through pedagogical tasks. The work focuses on four different approaches: the classroom-related, the resource-related and the technology-related. The book combines classroom theory, research and practice, all of which are immersed in the philosophy of social constructivism, whereby knowledge and learning are seen as both the context for and the result of human interaction. "This is the book everyone in the field has been waiting for. It is the product of excellent classroom research. . . highly engaging, relevant, readable, and above all, practical in its handling of the issues." Prof. John McRae, University of Nottingham, Uk. "This book is a perfect combination of theoretical and practical proposals that make it possible to implement and foster learner autonomy in the Efl/Esl classroom." Prof. Wolfgang Hallet, Justus Liebig University, Giessen, Germany
The present study aimed at exploring university students' attitudes toward the two main varieties of Arabic; MSA and Colloquial Arabic. 123 students participated in this study. The analysis indicated that respondents are aware of the diglossic situation in Arabic. The majority of students reported that do not use MSA in daily conversations. Moreover, they preferred the
colloquial over the standard one. Gender played a minor role in attitudes.

Background: Monitoring and detecting adverse drug reactions (ADRs) in hospitals is crucial to improving drug safety and healthcare delivery quality. Nevertheless, there was not enough information on ADR incidence and its figure in Iran. Aim: this study aimed to determine the incidence of ADRs in hospitalized patients and investigate their characteristics in Iran.Methods: We conducted a three-month prospective study in two tertiary hospitals in 2019. All admitted patients were intensively monitored for all suspected ADRs through daily visiting hospital wards and soliciting information from physicians, nurses and interviewing suspicious patients. We calculated the incidence of ADRs, and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). Poisson regression was used to evaluate risk factors for ADR incidence. Results: Among 13,613 admitted patients, we detected 115 ADRs in 114 patients. The incidence of ADR was 8.4 per 1000 admissions (95% CI: 7.0-10.1), and 13.9% of them were ADR-related hospital admi...
The biodiversity assessment of forest ecosystem of Sikkim has been done in 36 sites covering 8 protected areas and 27 reserve forests covering from tropical upto alpine forests of Sikkim during the course of the present study (2012-2018). We followed a quadrat sampling methods for vegetation assessment, wherein, a total of 918 number of sample plots were laid. Despite having the several botanical explorations, some of the area still remain unexplored or very less explored which, during the present course of study, found to be very rich in terms of the diversity of the species. The vegetation pattern (density, frequency, abundance, basal area, IVI, species richness, concentration of dominance etc. along the altitudinal gradient were analyzed and presented in this paper. Other than floral species, the checklist of faunal species were also made along the altitudinal gradient following trail sampling method. On the process of inventorization and assessment of biodiversity, some significant findings have been achieved in the form of new discovery and re-discovery of species, records of critically rare species, globally threatened species, high value medicinal plant species and so on, which are discussed herewith. Available threats to biodiversity of Sikkim were also recorded from the management point of view. Sub alpine-alpine areas of Sikkim harbours wide range of habitat diversity in the form of several rare, endangered species wherein, some of the observed threats are discussed herewith. In the temperate forest, the floristic wealth is rich and diverse, both in composition and value but the regeneration of some of the species such as Oaks recorded very less to almost nil. In the tropical-subtropical belt, most of the forest found stable in the form of their regeneration status however, the forest fire is the major issue in this area. Some of the initiatives of Forest, Environment and Wildlife Management Department, Government of Sikkim towards managing forest ecosystem and conserving rare and threatened species in Sikkim are also discussed in this paper.
