James Clarence Mangan, on dokuzuncu asır başlarında İrlanda'da yaşamış, İrlanda'nın milli şairliği mertebesine yükselmiş bir sanatçı ve aydındır. Mangan'ı Türk okuru için ilgi çekici kılan şey ise onun bir Türk dostu olması, genel olarak Şark, özel olarak da Türk kültürü, sanatıyla yakından ilgilenmesidir. İrlanda dışına hiç çıkmayan Mangan, Joseph Freiherr von Hammer-Purgstall'ın Almanca çevirileri üzerinden Osmanlı şiiri ile tanışmıştır. Mangan, Osmanlı şiirine dair izlenimlerini Dublin University Magazine dergisinde, "Literae Orientales" başlığını taşıyan altı makalede İngiliz ve İrlandalı okurlarla buluşturmuştur.
Bu makalede Türkiye'de daha önce Mangan'ı konu edinen çalışmalar kısaca özetlendikten sonra Mangan'ın Türk şiirini ele alan altı makalesi incelenmiş ve Mangan'ın görüşleri değerlendirilmiştir. Mangan'ın makalelerinde zaman zaman gerçeklikten kopmasına karşın Türk edebiyatına olumlu yaklaşmasının, Türk edebiyatı üzerine çalışmaları teşvik etmesinin, Türk edebiyatı unsurlarını Batı şiirine taşımasının değerli kazanımlar olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır.

AbstractBackgroundPeople with intellectual disabilities are more likely to have diabetes and develop complications from it. Diabetes management is complex and insulin treatment in particular, people with intellectual disabilities may require additional support that is not always available. This review aimed to identify barriers and facilitators to managing diabetes with insulin in adults with intellectual disabilities.MethodPatient and public involvement (PPI) was integral to the development of the research question. A systemised review was conducted across CINAHL, the British Nursing Index and MEDLINE. PRISMA guidelines were followed. Narrative synthesis of the evidence was undertaken.ResultsBarriers and facilitators to managing diabetes with insulin in people with intellectual disabilities were identified related to the individual, other people participating in their care, and broader environmental and social factors.ConclusionsPeople with intellectual disabilities who use insulin, require reasonable adjustments to education, support, and a person‐centred approach to facilitate supported self‐management. More training for their supporters is needed and further inclusive research with PPI is recommended.

The appealing part of a literary work is to enable the audience to feel emotionally connected with a literary work, leading them to produce diverse interpretations. In this respect, the occurrence of Amanda Gorman's poem of The Hill We Climb is capable of attracting American citizens' attention to deliver their perception of the work. The intensity of American society's reactions can be seen in how the audience expresses their responses on YouTube. Therefore, the writer decided to analyze the phenomenon further by applying Stuart Hall's reception theory aimed to prevail on how American society perceives the poem. Finally, the result of the analysis shows that the majority of Americans perceived the work as encouragement in refining the principles of American democracy, which were categorized as dominant readings. On the other hand, several audiences who interpreted the poem as a form of hope are included as negotiated readings that deliver different opinions but align with the poet's perception. The last is oppositional readings that interpret the poem as a redundant work, shown by the audience's incapability to comprehend the poem comprehensively. Briefly, the variety of the audience's interpretations is because of diverse perceptions possessed by the audience in perceiving the message of democracy within the poem, which is influenced by their backgrounds.
