The new book titled “GLASS from sand to glass-ceramics through the Silk Road” has been issued a few weeks ago in Italy by CLUT publisher (www.clut.it). The book was co-authorized by professor  Massimo Tomalino from Politecnico di Torino along with professor Dilshat Tulyaganov from Turin Polytechnic University in Tashkent. This is the second book of the authors while the first one titled “Porcelain from tableware to dental restoration has been issued by the same publisher in 2017.

The first part of the book “GLASS from sand to glass-ceramics through the Silk Road” deals with the development of glass since its origin in Mesopotamia many millennia ago to modern time across the Roman and Medieval Ages, with emphasis on its importance in arts, architecture and history of science. A fascinating (virtual) travel along the Silk Route is also proposed to the Reader: in this regard, the different uses of glass in the Western and Eastern countries of Eurasia are acutely related to different visions of the world. Thus, the story of glass is presented to be tightly interlocked with the people’s historical, religious and social events over the centuries.

The second part focuses on glass science and technology, with emphasis on the fundamentals of glass structural theories, the methods for silicate glass and glass-ceramic production, and the analysis of the composition-property-function relationships. A special section is dedicated to the use of glasses in medicine.

The timeline of glass development across history is provided at the end of the book, where an exhaustive chronological table collects the main achievements of glass evolution and impacts on mankind.

This book provides a valuable, interdisciplinary, rigorous but easy-to-follow overview of glass history, science, technology and applications that can be useful to a broad readership, including undergraduate and graduate students, scholars, researchers from academia and industry, and all those who simply love glass and wish to learn more about it.

The history of the emergence and development of the Uzbek language is closely intertwined with the history of its native speakers. The emergence of such a nation as the Uzbek people was due to the process of the merger of a number of ethnic groups, the means of communication of which were Turkic and Iranian languages. This explains a large number of dialects in the Uzbek dialect, between which there is a huge difference.

The history of the development of the Uzbek language can be divided into three stages: periods of ancient Turkic, Old Uzbek, and modern Uzbek languages.

Ancient Turkic language

This stage belongs to the V-XI centuries. The Turks settled along the shores of the Syr Darya, Amu Darya and Zerafshan, gradually pushing the inhabitants of the Indo-Iranian tribes. The means of communication was the ancient Turkic language, on the basis of which many Asian languages were subsequently formed. Today, there are only fragments of the ancient Turkic script, imprinted on cultural monuments belonging to this period.

Old Uzbek language

The second stage dates back to the XI-XIX centuries. During this time, the Uzbek language developed under the influence of many neighboring languages. A huge contribution to the formation of the language was made by the poet Alisher Navoi, who created a unified and developed literary language. It was in this form that it was used until the turn of the 19th century without change.

Modern Uzbek language

The twentieth century was marked by the beginning of the formation of the modern Uzbek language. It was based on the Ferghana dialect – universally recognized among all residents of Uzbekistan. Most of the population spoke this dialect, which they knew as the Sartain language, and its speakers were called Sarts. Ethnic sarts did not belong to the Uzbek people, but in the 20s of the last century the word “sart” was refused, and the inhabitants of the country began to be called Uzbeks. The norms of the literary language became more democratic, which made it much simpler and more accessible.

Uzbek writing

Over the entire history of development in the Uzbek language, there were three different scripts.

From antiquity to the end of the 20s of the last century, the Uzbek ethnic group was based on the Arabic alphabet. With the advent of Soviet power, the writing was subjected to a series of reforms. Until 1938, the Latin alphabet was in use, and then switched to the Cyrillic alphabet, which lasted until 1993. When the Republic of Uzbekistan became an independent state, the Latin alphabet returned again.

Today, in the Uzbek script, Arabic letters, Latin and Cyrillic letters are used in parallel. The older generation prefers Cyrillic graphics, and the Uzbeks living abroad prefer Arabic letters. In schools, they study in Latin, so it is difficult for pupils and students to read books that were published even during the Soviet era.

The Uzbek language is rich in loanwords from the Persian language. In the XX century, vocabulary was significantly enriched in Russian-speaking words, and today it is intensively replenished with English borrowings. According to the state program. There is an active cleaning of the language from borrowed words. All this, of course, causes special difficulties in learning the Uzbek language and translations but makes it peculiar and more interesting.

According to open sources, there are currently about 24 million speakers of the Uzbek language in Uzbekistan, 3 million – in Afghanistan, about 1 million – in Tajikistan, 500,000 – in Kazakhstan, about 350,000 – in Turkmenistan, and 300,000 – in Russia.

Turin Polytechnic University in Tashkent and Andijan Machine-Building Institute signed an agreement on a joint double-degree program named “2 + 2”. The implementation of the joint program was made possible due to the decree of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan № DP-4397 dated from July 18, 2019 “On additional measures for the accelerated development of the automotive industry of the Republic of Uzbekistan”.

The purpose of the joint program is to promote the use of advanced educational resources between the two higher educational institutions, to introduce international educational standards and to encourage the involvement of talented teachers in academic programs. This program helps to prepare competitive students with flexible thinking, a high level of modern global vision, strong capabilities in engineering science and decision-making abilities.

According to this program, students who have successfully completed the second-year study of the Andijan Machine-Building Institute can be enrolled at Turin Polytechnic University in Tashkent, according to the academic performance and level of English proficiency. Upon completion of the university, students who meet the criteria and requirements established by both educational institutions will receive appropriate bachelor’s degrees and diplomas of the Andijan Machine-Building Institute and Turin Polytechnic University in Tashkent.

Starting from the current 2019-2020 academic year, the first students were accepted for participating under the “2+2” program in the field of Mechanical Engineering.

“The program “2 + 2” is a wonderful opportunity to gain knowledge, experience and a double diploma both at the state and international levels. I am happy to be one of the first owners of such an opportunity,” said Izzatullo Rakhmonov, a third-year student studying in this program.

In the future, it is planned to expand the program“2 + 2” to other areas of specialization. We hope that this agreement between the universities and the jointly organized undergraduate program of obtaining a double diploma will become an excellent base for developing the potential of the automotive industry in our country.

To love the Motherland, to protect and preserve it as the apple of the eye, to fight for its independence and prospects, for peace and prosperity and even sacrifice your own life for it is the duty of every citizen. Our defenders devote their whole lives to protecting the borders of our country.

According to the decision of January 14, 1992 on the transfer of all military units and formations, military educational institutions and other military formations deployed in the territory of our independent state and the development of a long-term program for reforming the national army of the Republic of Uzbekistan, in order to familiarize themselves with the history and achievements of the Armed Forces, it was organized a tour to the State Museum of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Uzbekistan for students of Turin Polytechnic University in Tashkent.

During the tour, students were able not only to study the history of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Uzbekistan but also to get acquainted with the expositions of the rich and extensive history of the museum of Central Asian and Uzbek military art. Getting acquainted with the exhibits, university students mentally traveled to our past, learned about the life of people, the development of defense, military equipments and weapons that were used to protect the territories, and also familiarized with the exhibits of our great ancestors, like Jaloliddin Manguberdi, Amir Temur, Zakhiriddin Muhammad Babur and Mirzo Ulugbek.

The monument “Oath to the Motherland”, erected at the entrance to the museum and reflecting the image of the faithful and strong son of our country, did not leave anyone indifferent.

The excursion to the State Museum of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Uzbekistan was another step towards increasing students’ love and respect for their homeland, dedication and expanding knowledge about the history of our country.
