dc.description.abstract

value: The article examines the special form of printed graphics: the advertising poster for tourism, whose task is to create a certain “image of the country” and to shape demand for certain tourist routes. This product became a companion to the development of the tourism industry itself, and with the release of such packages as “traveling to the East,” a separate group of advertising posters appeared that had all the advantages of high graphics of the epochs of Art Nouveau and Art Deco. However, representations in “eastern routes” posters developed their own techniques that were different from those of European destinations. First, in advertisements for Mediterranean destinations, the subject (image of the traveler) was replaced by the object (image of the country), which was positioned with the help of “visual brands” - monuments uniquely associated with a specific place. Artists in the first third of the 20th century created a number of graphic techniques for the catchy and recognizable “demonstration” of the East - the selection of “visual brands,” a special organization of composition, lighting, and imaginative structure of posters that created a “waiting effect” for potential tourists in accordance with advertising objectives. A separate reception was the stylized use of elements of the traditional artistic language of the “advertised” country. The article highlights the emergence of the “oriental” advertising poster as an art product, marks characteristic artistic tricks, and draws attention to the transformation of some works into independent visual brands that are becoming the subject of contemporary vintage stylizations.

dc.description.abstract

value: The Bologna process, globalization, national boundary-spanning necessitate the internationalization of higher legal education. However, the existing Federal educational standards (SES) for bachelor, specialist and master law programs are focused on training lawyers for the domestic legal system, as well as the training of lawyers in foreign countries is mainly aimed at the national legal system, which complicates the mutual recognition of diplomas, academic mobility and employment of our graduates in other countries. The national legal policy in the internationalization of higher legal education is not consistent either, and it has not brought the expected results. Therefore, it is necessary to determine possible solutions. Materials and methods. The empirical grounds of the research are the researchers’ experience in teaching law, including master’s programs aimed at the formation of competencies in international law. Formal-legal, comparative-legal and dialectical methods were used in the research to analyze the current educational legislation and the practice of its implementation. Results of the research. The gaps in the implementation of the policy of internationalization of higher legal education are identified. It is proved that the competences formulated SES are mainly focused on training lawyers for the Russian legal system. The absence of SES focused on training lawyers with universal competences does not allow to fully implement integrative programs.

dc.description.abstract

value: N. Gumilev. The purpose of the publishing house was to produce collections of translations of the most famous literary works and to get Russian readers to acquaint with the world literature. Gumilev’s “Ballads” of Southey has pursued the same goal but with the characteristic of the Russian tradition of this poet’s reception. For the English public, Southey was mainly known as an author of historical epic poems, but in Russian literature he was more of a ballad master. This perception has made a lodgement thanks to the first and major translator of his poetry, V. A. Zhukovskiy whose favorite genre was a ballad. In the introduction to the collection of poems Gumilev has drawn attention to the importance of Zhukovskiy for the tradition of Russian Southey and has dedicated the whole book to this idea. Six ballads, the third part of all poems in the book are connected with Zhukovskiy: four of them were translated by him as individual poems and two more were included in a short hexametric novel “Two tales and one more” (“Mary, the maid of the Inn” and “Jaspar”). M. Gor’kiy didn’t like the idea of including Zhukovskiy’s translations in the book, but for Gumilev it was the question of high importance and he has struggled for it. His choice of the only ballad for his own translation also prove this concept: he has chosen “The Surgeon’s Warning”, Southey’s self-parody for one of his most noted poem in Russia thanks to Zhukovskiy’s translation.

dc.description.abstract

value: This article examines an historical performance in the era of the maturity of the French Enlightenment: the first stage incarnation of the tragedy of Hamlet. Using materials on the history of French theatre in the 18th and early 19th centuries that are not translated into Russian, and research by Russian and foreign scholars in the 20th century. The author discusses the history of the dramatic adaptation of Shakespeare’s tragedy, by Jean-François Ducis, a follower of Voltaire, in the context of rising interest in Shakespeare in French culture in the second half of the 18th century. A key aspect of this analysis is Duсis’s relationship with the actors of the Comédie-Française, François René Molé, and Marie Dumesnil as the play was prepared. The “Hamlet” of 1769 showed not only the influence of Voltaire’s tragedies, but also the influence of the “medium genre” tradition, supported by D. Diderot. This is revealed in the interpretation of Hamlet’s role by the actor Molé and in the general stage concept of the tragedy. Ducis’ “Hamlet” is significant not as a literary work, but also as a theatrical text that underwent multiple revisions, as a work of art with a moving structure. The question is raised of the further fate of the tragedy on the French stage and of the interpretation of this “Hamlet” by F. J. Talma.

dc.description.abstract

value: The article analyzes the impact of processes of building the digital economy in the Russian Federation and Republic of Kazakhstan on the state of the information security of minors. Our states are encouraged to jointly urgently overcome the basic legal restrictions of the digital economy and regulate the use of innovative technologies. It is necessary to prevent the emergence of new threats to the information security of the individual. Special attention should be paid to the protection of information rights of minors. Among the main risks associated with the construction of digital economy in our republics are: the problems of potential violations in the authentication of the individual, low Internet literacy of minors, information vacuum - when there is no clear idea of the digital economy, ambiguous assessment of the child's capabilities in the digital economy, loss of purpose in life. The authors note that the transfer of the economy into digital form which is hasty, ill-conceived, and, most importantly, not regulated by law can harm the information security of minors. These problems should be the subject of the most rigorous scientific analysis in order to create special research and institutional structures. These structures should ensure the development of a new methodological and conceptual framework; the formation of an institutional mechanism: the development of legal, organizational, technical measures aimed at building a digital economy safe for the individual. In addition, it is necessary to monitor the development of all segments of the digital economy in order to identify emerging information threats.According to the authors, Russia and Kazakhstan need to follow the path of creating legislation that prevents the occurrence of problems and risks and which can also minimize their consequences. A number of provisions can be borrowed from the European experience.

dc.description.abstract

value: This article uses the Caucasian dance “Shamil’s Prayer” to examine the complex processes of genre transformation of folklore verbal and musical texts in the North Caucasus region. The dance was improvised by a Kumyk harmonist in the early twentieth century, based on the eyewitness account of the capture of Imam Shamil, and it spread widely in the Cossack environment and then throughout the USSR. Over the next hundred years, the dance sometimes included humorous and satirical verses, as a plot-theatrical composition in authenticity and on the stage of amateur art, as music for saber flanking, etc. Examining mechanisms oftransformation reveals that the musical text changes the genre marking: the dance turns into a song, the song turns into a prayer, and prayer becomes a hymn. In the content plan, the original historical hero turns either into an antihero, or is mocked. Avar Shamil is “replaced” by nameless Chechens and Circassians, and later by a Cossack. The change of the hero correlates with the genre characteristic of the music. The dance gradually turns into a comic song, then into a sparkling lezginka and, finally, into a Cossack hymn. The musical invariant of the song is separated from the original source and is contaminated with other well-known melodic themes. The objective reasons for the genre transformation lie in the dynamic sociocultural processes in southern Russia associated with local wars, the living functioning of the tradition using the adaptive techniques of folklore developed over the centuries. The sociocultural challenges of modern society in southern Russia are also associated with the need for Cossack consolidation and cultural revival.

dc.description.abstract

value: In this article, it is referred to the evolutionary development of the international private law after the World War II as well as to the influence on it by the Marxist ideology prevailing in Russia in this period. It is defined the role of the conflict of law whereby the superstructure was considered to be as the main principle of the legal doctrines including the common substantive rules and was used as a basis for the development of the legal and regulatory sources. It is noted the influence of european law school on the opinions of the national legal experts. It is founded out the necessity of the international private law in Russia in the post-revolutionary 1and post-war period. The economic and political changes have influenced the restriction of the scope of private law essentially. The theory of the commercial law which was considered to be as a key one in the soviet period gave rise to the unification of the law at the international level. It is emphasized the subjective and objective approaches to the nature of the conflict of law. It is analyzed the classification of the conflict of law with its division on the local and international one whereby the first one gave rise to the federal conflict of law and another one to the prevailing multilateral agreements. As a result, the author points out that the bilateral agreements were considered to be as an instrument of the rules of conflict of law in the Eastern Europe countries. Notwithstanding of the influence of the Western Europe countries on the development of the conflict of law in Russia was created the separate opinion of the socialist system differing from the capitalist one which was aimed to the traditional conception of the international private law.

dc.description.abstract

value: The article analysis a question about the ratio of law and lex in Russia in historical and legal researches in 19-20th centuries. The following issues are highlighted in the article: consideration of history of state and law or as a history of law; evolution of ratio of law and lex in Russia; chronological definition of the emergence of concepts “law” and “lex”; correctness of the use definition “law” and “lex” in the context of the centuries-old dualism of secular and ecclesiastical regulation of social relations. By analyzing university charters of The Russian Empire, it was revealed that the term “history of law” was used in Russian materials, but abroad the term “history of legislation” was used. The article shows the importance of tradition in studying historical and legal issues in soviet time, in spite of ideological attitudes. The possibilities of historical and legal science in the complex assessment of the concept of law are shown from the point of view of elements of formal legal sources of law, the use of a situational approach, which allows to consider options for equating law and lex and opposing them, considering law and lex as a substantive substance and legal form, identifying features of the Russian legal system in the context of the combinations “law-lawlessness”, “law-truth”. The article shows that in the 1990s in Russia, when the plan of legal reforms was in development the two approaches revealed : either legal reform was limited only to legislative reform, or was viewed as a process of changing legal awareness in the context of legal policy, legal ideology, “rooting” of new legal values, etc. The author's position is expressed that the last opinion is more preferable for Russian society.

dc.description.abstract

value: The article is dedicated to the history of one unrealized publishing project of A. A. Bestuzhev. We are talking about the author’s almanac, which was schemed by the writer in early 1829 while staying in Yakutsk. The reason why Bestuzhev during his exile thought about publishing his texts is obvious: in letters to his relatives, he often complained about his tight financial situation, which was undermined by pirated reprints of his texts. Unfortunately, we know virtually nothing about the possible content of the publication. But from Bestuzhev’s letters to his relatives, it is easy to rebuild the financial side of the idea. Considered in the context of the book publishing practice of the 1820s, the writer’s project raises doubts. So, Bestuzhev, apparently inspired by the recent phenomenal success of the Polar Star, conceived the idea to publish an almost doubled edition of the author’s almanac. But it is known that by the beginning of 1829 the “almanac” market was full, so hoping for the commercial success of this kind of publication was very reckless. In addition, judging by letters, Bestuzhev at some point decided to abandon the services of a professional commission agent and assign all the worries about publishing the future almanac and further selling the circulation on the shoulders of his sister Elena who was rather far from the subtleties of book sales. It seems that such a short-sightedness of Bestuzhev can be explained by his forced isolation. Despite the interest in literary novelties, the writer obviously had a little knowledge of the real position in the book market and the extent to which his own project would have been appropriate. But anyway, the project will stop already at the stage of negotiations with the publisher, who frankly stated the unprofitability of the project.

dc.description.abstract

value: The article focuses on six Dutch translations of I. S. Turgenev's novel “Fathers and Sons”, made in 1870, 1918, 1919, 1947, 1955 and 1991, which are a perfect example of translation plurality. The first translation was done via French as an interlingua, the second one directly from Russian into Dutch. The translations are analyzed at macro- and micro-levels. The background of the origin of these translations, brief information about the translators is provided in the paper, with a special focus on the 5-volume issue of Turgenev's works by the publishing house “Van Oorschot” in the edition “Russian Library”. With reference to the facts of Turgenev's influence on Dutch writers of different generations, the authors highlight the closeness of the novel “Fathers and Sons” to the core of the Dutch literary polysystem. The analysis at the micro-level includes the comparison of six different ways of translating proper names and Russian personal pronouns «ты» - «вы», phraseological units, culture-specific elements, descriptions of nature as well as the overview of mistranslations. Whereas early translations are characterized by expliciticity and are abound of commentaries on Russian phraseological units and culture-specific elements, the modern ones are considerably more precise and laconic. The authors conclude that the first three translators were not quite proficient in Russian and not always strictly adhered to the translational mechanism; the translation of 1947 is much more professional whereas the translations of 1955 and 1991 are flawless in terms of accuracy and the choice of adequate linguistic equivalents; the Dutch variant of 1955 meets the principles of a high-quality translation, and the translation of 1991 includes the elements of dynamic equivalence.

dc.description.abstract

value: This research focuses on revealing linguistic cognitive and cultural properties of the verbal poetic images characterizing the USA in American poetry. The study provides the linguistic cognitive analysis of the verbal poetic images aimed at defining the means that verbalize the American views of the USA. The use of linguistic cultural analysis of the verbal poetic images enabled to reconstruct the fragment of national world image. The article provides a brief analytical overview of the approaches to the study of the image space in the Anglophone poetry within the scope of cognitive-and-discursive paradigm. With respect to the connotation, the verbal poetic image characterizing the USA are divided into pejorative and ameliorative ones. The use of the linguistic cognitive analysis of the images mentioned above resulted in reconstructing the scope of conceptual metaphors underlying pejorative and ameliorative verbal poetic images. The pejorative verbal poetic images are the ones, which characterize negatively the USA. The ameliorative verbal poetic images are defined as the ones that have positive characteristics of the USA. The linguostylistic analysis of the examples revealed a narrow range of the stylistic devices, which allegorically express the image of the USA in texts of American poetry: a metaphor and a metonymy. The linguistic cognitive and cultural analysis of the types of verbal poetic images enabled to reconstruct the conceptual metaphors, which reflect the specific features of the interpretation of the USA. The following list of conceptual implications underlie the pejorative and ameliorative verbal poetic images: war, intervention, occupation, world leadership, challenge, inequality, unfreedom, the power of the money, thirst for profit, imposing of values, ideas and lifestyle, lie, injustice, freedom, equality, multicultur alism, uniqueness.

dc.description.abstract

value: The novel “Bewitchment” shows the progress through Hermann Broch’s novel-poetics. Broch argued for the synthesis on both the story- and the genre-novel-layer, that was Broch’s way to overcome the crisis of the novel-genre, that is the crisis of the narrator (the “dumbness” of the modern man) caused by the “disintegration of values”: the 1920s face with contrasting ideologies and seeks for universal tools of mutual social interaction. Broch’s answer to “dumbness” with his “poly-history novel”, meaning not only the synthesis of some stories (plots) but also of the narrative attitudes (genre forms). Broch considers his own novel as a “polyphonic instrument” combining the epic, dramatic and lyric narrative modes. On the plot-layer, the novel-figures refer not only to the well-known mythos-plots, what was already pointed out also in Russian germanistic (by E. Erohin and A. Strel’nikova). This article however emphasizes first, that each protagonist of “Bewichment” longs to establish a certain form of social organization - matriarchy, communism, totalitarianism, and capitalism. At the same time, each key-figure represents a certain narrator-type, whose speech expresses a concrete narrative mode - epic, dramatic or lyric. The novel-action is exposed by the country-doctor. Thus, his narration includes all the modes and genres given in “Bewitchment” as a synthetic unity. The application of the essays “Heritage of Our Time” by Ernst Bloch for analysis of “Bewitchment” could reveal the ethic aspect of the Broch’s synthesis-idea. This means the “conciliation” of all genres by the narrator, who provides a communicative basis enabling the conciliation of all social groups.

dc.description.abstract

value: Since the last third of the 20th century, the nature of the impact of technological innovations on society and culture has become explosive. Culture is spiralling into a turbulent state where the consequences of technological progress are so multifarious that they produce completely new entities, previously unimaginable. Technology, rather than being a mere aid to humanity, grows into a dominating factor of its own. The changes are so drastic we can now rightfully speak of the transformation of culture, manifesting as a destruction of culture as a system of varied local cultures and emergence of one global culture, where one culture or a group of cultures inevitably assumes the position of dominance. Technological progress is not just something external to the society and the individual, it saturates them, sometimes even modifying them to suit the technology in question. Fundamental philosophical concepts of the world and undergoing a profound change and development. In this context surprisingly relevant is the old fable of Plato's cave as a metaphor for human existence on earth. It can even be read as predicting some of the consequences of digitalisation. In some cases, the image of reality can acquire the properties of imitation, removed from any truth and essence when a shadow is indistinguishable from reality. The global communication space can be analogous to Plato's cave in its contemporary form: the cave of big data. Its conditions of existence are the growing human reliance on big data when human consciousness becomes the object of computer simulation.

The timeliness of this paper is that the company leaders should assess risks and make forecasts about the characteristics of project teams before their creating and practicing. Yet, the type of communication that will become more effective while the project team developing and working is another concern for the large and multinational companies. Based on both social capital and stakeholder group concepts and conducted research, it has been established theoretically and empirically the features of personal network communications that overcome the bounds of the formal organizational network. New dimensions of personal networking, which allow neutralizing the position status in the company hierarchy, have been proposed. As a result, this novel approach can enable HR specialists to compare the network social activities among employees with different organizational statuses. The key findings of this study is the model that connects both network communication activities and promotion the project in the official meetings with the team composition that the author gets together to put the project idea into practice.

Specifically, the paper discusses the theoretical framework, which demonstrates how talent attraction, development and retention are related to absorptive capacity dimensions, namely knowledge acquisition and assimilation (referred to as potential absorptive capacity), and knowledge transformation and exploitation (referred to as realized absorptive capacity). The paper suggests a number of testable hypotheses and via multiple linear regression analyzes 60 Russian companies showing the applicability of the proposed framework. Consequently, the research proves the important role of talent management practices, specifically talent development, in developing absorptive capacity dimensions in Russian context.

dc.description.abstract

value: The entrepreneurial activity might be significantly heterogeneous at the regional level. Cases of economics, which have not been socialistic in the past, demonstrate that spatial differences are persistent over time. However it is still unclear whether it exists in emerging economies. This study investigates the relationship between entrepreneurial activity in regions of Russia in the late 1980s and the current level of regional entrepreneurship. In order to measure the entrepreneurial activity in Russia we use shares of self-employed on the labour force at regional level. This indicator might be a more accurate measure than the traditional one, that is based on the number of small and medium enterprises. In this study we test whether current spatial differences in entrepreneurship might be explained by the official or shadow entrepreneurial activity in the late 1980s. Our findings show that regions with high entrepreneurial activity in a shadow and official sector of Russian economy now demonstrate a high level of self-employment rates. Thus, the entrepreneurial activity has a long-term impact on the self-employment despite to the significant changes.

dc.description.abstract

value: The authors of the article present a comparative philosophical analysis of the epistemological concepts of the Greek Byzantine Holy Fathers and the Arab-Islamic thinkers of the Middle Ages. Using the prime sources, the authors consider the elaborated traditions and practices of theosophy, united by the uplifting and transforming personal-mystical ascension to the Creator. The God-knowing process is presented as a way of self-cognition and self-development, as a spiritual-moral (deifying) rise and as a special religious-ecstatic individual unity with God. In this special context, attention is paid to the epistemological principles of the religious, mystical teaching of Sufism of the Islamic Golden Age and the Christian monasticism of the early ages of Christianity. These principles help to understand how sacred information is transmitted to society and allow us to establish the interaction of people of different ethnic cultures and religions on the basis of common values and moral norms. The authors scrutinize the Al-Ghazali’s concept of the “soul vision” of the Creator in Sufism (Fana), and the Symeon the New Theologian’s concept of achieving the unity with God through the perception of the Uncreated Light. The authors adhere to the theoretical position that it is religious gnosis based on philosophical and anthropological ideas that make it possible to talk about the closeness of Christianity and Islam and partially overcome the stereotypes established in social science about the contradiction between these religions.

dc.description.abstract

value: The purpose of this article is to analyze how the question of women’s position in Orthodoxy entered the international agenda and how it became the subject of theological discussions within the Orthodox churches, which theologically significant principles were worked out during the discussion. The issue of women’s position in the church began to be considered in the context of the ecumenical dialogue and began to be discussed in the World Council of Churches since the moment of its emergence in the context of growing attention to human rights and dignity and the ceasing of discrimination against women. The emerging practice of the ordination of women in the Protestant churches in Europe prompted the WCC to collect a spectrum of theological positions on this issue of the WCC member churches. “The Ecumenical Decade 1988-1998: Churches in Solidarity with Women” demonstrated the severe confrontation of Protestant and Orthodox churches in the WCC, and not only in relation to the attitude to the women’s ordination, but to the issue of violence as well. The WCC stimulated in the middle of 1970s the conduct of regular inter-Orthodox meetings - conferences, where various aspects such as theological, social and cultural, determining the position of women were discussed. The largest was the conference held in 1988 in Rhodes “The Place of the Woman in the Orthodox Church and the Ordination of Women”; the next step in the theological interpretation of this issue was the conference in Thessaloniki in 2015 “Deaconesses, Ordination of Women and Orthodox Theology”. The argumentation of the Orthodox churches’ position has endured a serious evolution. If initially the thesis that the Orthodox Church does not know the practice of women’s ordination prevailed, and the prohibition for women to participate in the rituals is rooted in ecclesiology and christology, during the discussions were articulated the arguments showing convincingly that in the ancient church women were being ordained deaconesses and various forms of women’s church activity were practiced.

dc.description.abstract

value: In the article Mikh. Lifshitz’s project of “great restoration” (Restauratio Magna) is considered in the horizon of more general process covering in the Soviet Russia of the 1930th all spheres of public life from economy to philosophy and art. The total understanding of this global process of restoration of classical ideals and traditional norms was formed in the 30th years only by Mikh. Lifshitz and in a circle of his supporters. Considered the phenomenon of the Soviet conservatism is also born in this process of restoration. Studying this phenomenon, its estimation is important for the humanities because it allows getting rid of unilateral approaches. In the article similarities and distinctions of pre-revolutionary and Soviet forms of conservative outlook are disclosed. The originality of the Soviet conservatism is that it is longtime quite peacefully coexists with the Marxist ideas which are very far from the traditional idea of conservatism. At the same time, this coexistence of conservative values and the Marxist ideas predetermines opposition to pre-revolutionary conservatism because the idea of a return to last Russia is unacceptable. The first signs of the beginning of the formation of the Soviet conservatism are returned to traditional norms of family life in state policy and gradual, but the irrevocable refusal of different experiments in education and upbringing. In the political sphere, the Soviet conservatism had an effect on a great-power foreign policy, on the dissolution of the Komintern aimed at the realization of the world revolution, in the restoration of an institute of the patriarchate and on some other steps. The phenomenon of the Soviet conservatism played an important role in mobilization policy of the state both during the world war and after it.

dc.description.abstract

value: The article analyzes the process of formation of the national history of philosophical thought. The first part of the article examines the European history of the formation of the history of philosophy and proves that professionalization of philosophy became a catalyst for discussions about the nature of the history of philosophy. The article shows the connection between the institutionalization processes of philosophy in Russia and publishing the first works on the history of philosophy in the Russian language. For their qualitative assessment, it is proposed to consider the philosophy of Socrates. The ways of philosophical self-reflection are presented in describing the Socrates views. It highlights the secondary compilation nature of the first Russian histories of philosophy. The second part of the article is devoted to the study of the history of ancient philosophy in Russia. The development of ancient philosophy contributes to the expansion of the tools of the history of philosophy and to overcome its superficial, simplified presentation. The controversy about the tasks of the history of philosophy that unfolded in the 1890s between two thinkers, N. N. Strakhov Sr (1828-1896) and N. N. Strakhov Jr (1852-1928) testifies the new quality of the history of philosophy as an independent science and academic discipline. Its analysis in the final part of the article allows asserting that by the end of the 19th century, the history of philosophy has been formed in Russia as an independent specialized field of philosophical knowledge.

dc.description.abstract

value: This article examines the Internal Armed Conflicts that have emerged in the Post-Soviet space. They were the product of Post-Socialist Society, and Ethnic Nationalism was the main reason for their origin and development. As a result, the Post-Soviet Space has largely restructured thanks to eight Internal Armed Conflicts, which brought many Post-Soviet countries and peoples enormous human losses, flows of refugees and displaced persons, great material losses and the cost of their recovery. To date, most of these Conflicts have been Resolved, and the two Conflicts in Nagorno-Karabakh and Transnistria remain frozen. However, approximately since 2008 (the “five-day war” between Russia and Georgia), a New Stage in the development of Internal Armed Conflicts has begun. There have been several recurrences with Internal Armed Conflicts (in Karabakh, Kyrgyzstan) and a new Internal Armed Conflict in the South-East of Ukraine. It is interesting that the Crimea, which was characterized by an increased conflict of different kinds, managed to change its status exclusively peacefully. The Post-Soviet Space is now virtually a thing of the Past. It was divided into several small geographical regions. Conventionally, all these regions can be called North-Eastern Eurasia. At present, Ethnic Nationalism is no longer the dominant factor in Internal Armed Conflicts, it is driven primarily by Geopolitical considerations and National Interests of World and Regional powers, International Organizations and Political Networks. Central among the modern Internal Armed Conflicts of North-Eastern Eurasia is the clash in the South-East of Ukraine, which is inscribed in the wider Ukrainian crisis and demonstrates the constant confrontation between the United States and the European Union with Russia or Ukraine and the Russian Federation. Geopolitical and Geo-Economic threats, various forms of Hybrid War, arms supplies to the parties to the conflict in the South-East of Ukraine all make the situation explosive for the entire system of International Relations.

dc.description.abstract

value: The article is devoted to the analysis of socio-cultural prerequisites for the origin of scientific and philosophical thought in Russia. Turning to the history of St. Petersburg, the authors point to the symbolic meaning of the emergence of a new capital, which predetermined the continental-marine fate of the Russian civilization, combining both the protective principle and the principle of progressive modernization. In this regard, the authors point to the specific feature of the Russian revolutionary, which implies socio-cultural renewal through regular return to the primordial principles of civilizational construction. An integral element of modernization, the authors see the development of scientific and philosophical knowledge in Russia, which, on the one hand, seeks to ensure that the updating of the technological capacity of the corresponding estestvennosti-cal bases of the Russian civilization, and with another - to express our values and the activities of Teleostei the contents of national identity. Reconstructing the vector of development of Russian scholarship, the authors distinguish the studies of M. V. Lomonosov and V. V. Dokuchaev, on the example of which show how the comprehensive restoration of the integrity of the universe took a priority place in the scientific and philosophical experience of Russia. In the end, the authors put forward the hypothesis that the Russian Eurasians, N. S. Trubetskoy in his “Personology”, P. N. Savitsky, in his “Russian Studies”, purposefully reproduced the principle of spatial and temporal involvement of elements adopted by Lomonosov. This principle can be put on the basis of methodological synthesis, which cultivates not the physics of abstract quantities and not the chemistry of refined substances, but the nature of its integrity and obvious representation. And at the base of the updated system of knowledge can be located not chemistry or physics, botany or zoology, but-soil science, forestry, crop production, subsoil use, etc.

dc.description.abstract

value: The main point of the first part of the article is to assert that personal spiritual evolution of Marx led him through the range of stages to dialectical materialism which was not supposed by him as well as by Engels to be called philosophy. Nevertheless, the method used by Marx in “Capital” was connected with German classical philosophy in general especially with Hegel’s “Science of Logic”. This circumstance gave Plekhanov and Lenin possibility to present dialectical materialism as Marxism philosophy. Marxism-Leninism philosophy was established in USSR as the foundation of native education, and as a result, the formation of Soviet culture was affected hereby. Now the situation has been changed, but it does not mean that soviet experience of vigorous progress of education and science on the basis of philosophy has lost its actuality. The aim of the second part of the article is to show how this experience has to be used nowadays. The main argument hereof is to confirm that learning by future specialists the rationally conscious way of thinking formed during the history of philosophy from Thales and Parmenides till Shelling and Hegel inclusive can give an adequate answer to challenges of present time. The achievements of philosophical thought having enriched the contemporary epistemology, philosophy of language and conscience can not only stimulate the solution of fundamental problems of science and technology but radically change the human way of life. In connection with it in this article, there are offered a range of measures directed to the development of special philosophical and higher professional education in our country.

dc.description.abstract

value: The article analyzes the meaning of the “secularity” in the socio-cultural context of Denmark, which is considered as one of the most secular nations in the world, while the Evangelical- Lutheran Church there has the status of the state Church. The special status of Folkekirke is* The research has been performed within the grant of Russian Science Foundation No. 17-18-01194 “Religious Majority/Minority in Public Space in Russia and Northern Europe: Historical-Cultural Analysis”.enshrined in the 1953 Constitution of Denmark, stipulating state guarantees for favorable conditions of its activities, as well as partial financing. At the same time, the Constitution proclaims freedom of religion. As a subject of research, such situation gives rise to many theoretical problems related primarily to clarify the meaning of the basic concepts of Religious Studies, and the specifics of their applicability to the socio-cultural situation of each particular country. In the framework of the theory of secularization, Denmark is usually viewed as the intermediate model between the British “established” church, and the French principle of läicité. The term “secularity” is considered in the light of contemporary academic discussions on the theory of secularization, multiple modernities, and multiple secularities; the latter implies the isochronal existence of different types of secularity, which are formed within particular cultural-historical traditions of the given country, and constantly change under the influence of emerging societal realities. The article presents a critical review of the most popular theoretical versions in the Western Religious Studies aimed at the explanation of the causes and nature of secularity in Denmark, as well as in other Northern European countries. The author concludes that the considered options, in principle, do not contradict, but complement each other, and prove the fact that adequate interpretation of any complex phenomenon should not be one-sided and stocked within a single subject area.

dc.description.abstract

value: The article is devoted to the topic which relevance is determined by the socio-cultural revolution that from the beginning of the 20th century catchеd the family - the most fundamentalinstitution of society as such and the only social institution of human reproduction. The author turns to the study of the phenomenon of sexuality in the Foucault’s project of “History of Sexuality” in those aspects that are associated with the reception of Freud’s legacy by Foucault’s philosophical thinking, favorably differing from the “return to Freud”, programs formulated by J. Lacan and J. Laplanche. The “genealogical method” of Foucault gave the historical study of sexuality a philosophically grounded character. Responding to Foucault’s appeal to translate sexuality into discourse, the author of the article considers discourse and discursive practices as an instrument of historical research, shows the complexity of the study of sexuality, based on the urgency of the present, is determined by the ordinary non-intelligible assimilation and use of language: the desire for social recognition, the psychological temptation of simplicity of attitudes agreement and denial, the intentional indefiniteness of possessive pronouns, sounded in the voice and masked by the text. The idea of discourse, anthropological practices that unite the language with the specific circumstances of its use, serve as a fruitful cognitive tool for historical research. Psychoanalytic philosophical anthropology, or metapsychology, is not only a way of thinking, that revolutionized humanitarian knowledge in the 20th century, but is also implicitly associated with the figure of the psychoanalyst as a conceptual character whose attitude to the client’s language serves as a paradigm for exploring discourse practices in their historical existence and development. The reference to the conceptual interrelationship between Freud’s metapsychology and Foucault’s philosophy opens the prospects for a concrete study of sexuality in the context of traditional family values, the family as a mechanism for the reproduction of man and society.

value: While the field of customer orientation (CO) has been studied extensively since the 1990s, there have hardly been any attempts to review the concept with consideration of the specifics of B2B markets, especially in the context of the emerging economy. This paper explores the specifics of B2B firms’ CO on the example of Russia’s emerging economy. The empirical survey of 272 Russian B2B firms represents the platform for applying well-established CO measurement tools as an integrated complex measure. The results of factor analysis identify a critically important aspect of CO, which helps to differentiate the customer oriented firms from those with “declared” CO. The study indicates a need to revisit well-established marketing concepts and their measurement approaches in B2B markets on the example of CO in Russia.

dc.description.abstract

value: The historization of the methodological consciousness of a scientist (both in the field of natural science and in the field of humanitarian research) is becoming the most important factor of concrete scientific work. At the same time, the scientist’s awareness of the historical dimension of cognition and, accordingly, the historization of methodological reflection contains the possibility of philosophical and methodological conclusions capable of deforming science. In particular, references to history often serve as the basis for radical methodological relativism. The authors believe that the epistemological problematics arising in this context appeal to the topic of the historical self-awareness of the researcher, to the phenomenon of his selfawareness as a historical person and brings the cognitive aspects of such awareness into the focus. Besides that, in the field of philosophical and methodological research fell scientist’s reflections, expressed in some narrative about the history of the formation of his self-consciousness and motivation. The article demonstrates the epistemological perspective of the analysis of such reflections (scientist’s autobiographical narrative). In this article, the authors, appealing to the texts of historians, seek to show how through the prism of a narrative one can reveal the peculiarities of historicism in the reflection and self-consciousness of scientists and, in particular, analytically assess the cognitive risks generated by one or another direction of their self-consciousness. First of all, it is an assessment of the cognitive characteristics of self-deception. The article substantiates the idea that the interpretation of philosophical and methodological reflection as a narrative opens up the possibility for the effective application of cultural-historical epistemology in scientific research.

dc.description.abstract

value: The review proposes the analyses of the intellectual experience of the historian of philosophy that is determined by the ideological and the political factors that lay behind the realm of the philosophy. The author proposes and arguments the theses about the mean role of the non-philosophical origins of the influence as for the philosophy as itself both the activity of the historian of philosophy. From the Greek ancient epoch the basis of the philosophy is the faith in the universal laws of the nature and their intelligible character the historian of philosophy based on the faith into the intelligible laws of the development of the thought, and their origin is the historicism that is doctrinally birth by the ideological corpus of the Western Enlightenment. The history of philosophy in the modern state is a space in which unfolds the activity of the historian of philosophy, representing an epistemological anarchist, but in reality, masking it visible anarchism its bias by the political paradigm of Western civilization. As a result, the history of philosophy turns out to be a sphere of unfolding specific political and ideological programs, and the experience of the historian of philosophy is not narrowly professional, but political work. This personal experience by its nature is decisive for the formation of the image of philosophy and the picture of its historical development. Given this fact, the author suggests the need to qualify the history of philosophy as a register of knowledge, which is constantly renewed problematic the central concepts, marking the basic conceptual points and the definition of the general direction of thought. As a result, the author proposes to recognize the historian of philosophy as much as a greater degree of creative freedom than is assumed in the traditional way of the intellectual, working in a positive way with the corpus of philosophical texts and ideas.

dc.description.abstract

value: Today both the history and philosophical grounding of human rights are matters of great controversy. One prominent figure in the debate is Samuel Moyn, professor of law and history at Harvard University. He argues that universal human rights are a relatively recent concept, dating from the 1940s and that they are, more specifically, a product of the Catholic philosophy of that era. The Catholic thinker who reinvented human rights was Jacques Maritain. He was among the founders of the French philosophical movement known as personalism, which he fashioned into his own Christian (or “integral”) humanism. By 1940, he was turning integral humanism into an explicit and robust defense of human rights. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights followed in 1948, and Maritain was one of its intellectual architects. Decades before Maritain, however, another tradition of Christian personalism had already developed into a theory of human rights. This tradition was Russian neo-idealism. In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, it combined Orthodox Christian personalism with a Kantian conception of human dignity to produce a theoretically sophisticated defense of human rights. The leading figure in this development was Russia’s greatest religious philosopher, Vladimir Soloviev. After the Russian Revolution, the intellectual legacy of Soloviev and Russian neo- idealism was transmitted by Nikolai Berdiaev and the Russian philosophical emigration to interwar France, where it helped form the milieu in which Maritain’s thought took shape. Indeed, Maritain’s “integral humanism” is strikingly similar to Soloviev’s Christian humanism.

Although there are substantial advantages given by the employer brand, its value for specific target groups needs to be explored more deeply. The aim of this article is to identify the key employer brand attributes that are important for young business specialists and to reveal the benefits for the company brought by the employer brand. The empirical research based on mixed methodology (in-depth interviews and a survey among business school bachelor and master program students) was conducted to identify the role of the employer brand in the employment decisions of young specialists and in shaping their salary expectations. The results showed that the jobseekers want to work in the company with the employer brand even if it provides lower wage level. The attributes important for young specialists were found to include both business environment features and internal employer brand characteristics.

dc.description.abstract

value: Although over 97 % of scientists are in agreement regarding the occurrence, cause and consequences of climate change, studies have found that less than 50 % of Americans believe that climate change is caused by human activities and that Americans remain greatly divided regarding the causes, urgency and solutions to the climate crisis. The gravity of the situation only appears to be growing as recent reports have shown that climate change denial is not limited to the United States and that other global citizens also appear to be confused regarding the legitimacy of climate change science data. The prevalence of confusion highlights the dire need for better educational programs and grassroots actions by the scientific and academic communities. However, the path from ‘data’ to citizen action is hardly a direct one, and thus the engagement of the climate science community (ENGOs and other boundary organizations, academia, governments) in education will not be simply one of ‘getting the word out’. That community will need to grapple with the complex socio-epstemic space that lies between scientific knowledge production and citizens’ participatory engagement with climate change policies. This paper outlines some aspects of that complexity and suggests ways how certain types of knowledge dissemination as such, which lead to increased scientific literacy, can contribute to increased citizen action.

dc.description.abstract

value: The article provides an analysis of the “problem” approach to understanding a human being. This approach was a characteristic feature of the followers of empiriocriticism in Russia at the turn of the 20th century. It is shown that this approach suggests the possibility of a procedural understanding of the objectness of philosophical knowledge which in turn requires the metaphysical rationality to be critically overcome. Russian positivism is discussed by means of analyzing the two main “irritants” of the philosophical tradition: antimetaphysical pathos and a new model of knowledge. Metaphysics, as an object of criticism of the Russian positivists, was considered to be a special strategy of comprehending absolute truth, or such a system of knowledge that was based on ignorance, that is, on a whole series of assumptions accepted on faith and never verified. It is shown that the criticism of metaphysics led the empiriocritics to develop their own alternative projects to prove the possibility of monistic philosophy. The most interesting experiments of constructing a system of “non-metaphysical all-unity” were the theories of empiriomonism and tektology of Aleksandr Bogdanov, scientific philosophy of Vladimir Lesevich, empiriosymbolism of Pavel Yushkevich, philosophy of life of Sergey Suvorov, as well as positive aesthetics of Aleksandr Lunacharsky. These theories are considered in the context of modelling a system of new, non-classical, or de-anthropologized, philosophical knowledge. The problem of man is described by means of both destruction and actualization of its main historical interpretations. The thesis of the Russian positivists that philosophy can exist only in the form of a historico-philosophical discourse which is held to create a possible reality rather than to reconstruct the existing philosophical doctrines is corroborated.

dc.description.abstract

value: Overcoming the tradition of metaphysics’ forgetting of the world and restoring the principal status of the world is the fundamental assertion of the movement of 20th century’s philosophical cosmology, and the ontology of univocity which is the centrepiece of Deleuze’s metaphysics of difference can be considered precisely as an important moment of this movement. Following the footsteps of Karl Löwith and Eugen Fink both of whom strive to surpass the traditional metaphysics in its medieval theological and modern subjectivist figures and think the World-Nature in a non-metaphysical manner, Deleuze has been well aware of the significance of Heraclitean original intuition of the world for the construction of ontology, that is to say, the ontology worthy of the name should be founded upon the World, be it cosmic or chaosmic, which is of a non-numerical unicity and of which both the divine and the human are only the modalities. Furthermore, he deepens this intuition through a reworking of Spinozism, especially the Spinozean theory of attributes as doubly infinite univocal forms and ultimately poses the Heraclito-Spinozean Nature-World as the common ontological condition of both the infinite and the finite and as the principle of individuation of all the intraworldy spatiotemporal beings. Hereby under the influence of the two German philosophers and through a deepening of their Heracliticism, Deleuze has established his own theory of World-Nature, i.e. ontology of univocity which has found its clearest and most profound expression in his creative interpretation of Spinoza’s theory of attributes.

dc.description.abstract

value: The article presents a comparative analysis of the atheistic views of Marx and Bakunin. The German philosopher and the Russian anarchist in his youth belonged to this philosophical movement as ladegerate (left Hegelianism). Hegel’s dialectics revolutionarily stimulated the thinkers of German, Russian, Polish, Hungarian, Italian and other nations. The inevitable was the split among Hegel’s followers on the issue of further trends in historical development. It was the German left Hegelians who started discussing the religious problem. The call of left Hegelians to the philosophy of practical actions have inspired many thinkers, including Feuerbach, Marx, Bakunin, to reconsider the Hegelian philosophy. The atheism of Marx developed on the basis of the study of the materialist doctrines of Epicurus and of Democritus, and anti-theologism Bakunin relied on his understanding of the Church as a tool of autocratic rule. For Marx, atheism had a worldview value, for Bakunin it was a practical task. If in his materialistic philosophy, which was developed in the post-Hegelian period, Marx proceeded in theoretical positions from the category of “alienation”, in the early period of his philosophical creativity, the main category was the will. In the further Marx concludes that the elimination of religious alienation involves the abolition of economic alienation. Bakunin’s ideal of anarchy as an absence of power suggests other social ties, rather than power, force, control, hierarchy, etc. It is the strongest spiritual and moral basis of common life. This is the existence of a free person in a free society, the reverse side of which is the responsibility of the individual.

dc.description.abstract

value: Fichte describes in his The Characteristics of the Present Age ( Grundzüge des gegenwärtigen Zeitalters ) a three-stage structure of world history. In the first age of the world the reason stands in instinct and credibility, and therefore the Foundation of the beliefs reached through them, remain hidden from him. This fact, according to Fichte, explains the lack of science in this age. Our age marks the turning point where the rising reason begins. This rise, that is, the liberation of the reason from the form of instinct, is that this age in principle learns the idea of science as a clear understanding of itself. However, this knowledge of his own nature transhistorically this age still do not understand real science, indeed a defining reason, understanding the science is only formally. The new age, that is about to come, will be, according to Fichte, an “epoch of the science of reason” in which philosophy has solved all problems of justification. This will be the very basis for the ongoing systematic progress of science. Despite the undeniable progress that science has made since the time of Fichte this goal has not been achieved to this day. In the essay, I will try to show why this promise of Fichte’s “science of knowledge” has not been fulfilled. The answer lies in certain unresolved problems of transcendental philosophy in general and the Fichtian philosophy in particular. Namely, Fichte also failed to completely solve the problem of transcendent schematism, because he did not demonstrate the separation of thought and intuition. In addition, I will indicate a possible solution by surmounting the transcendental schematism.

dc.description.abstract

value: The publication is a voice in the discussion on the essence of an (internet) meme treated as a communication phenomenon bearing the characteristics of a separate media genre, carried out on the basis of Polish research. The starting point of the analysis was to discuss a relation between meme as defined by Richard Dawkins and (internet) meme genre. As a result of this discussion, the observed phenomenon was considered one of the possible phenotypic effects of the meme treated as a unit of cultural information. The properties of the (internet) meme treated as a media genre were based on the method of genological analysis developed by Maria Wojtak. The subject of the analysis, in accordance with the adopted methodological assumptions, was a selected series of memes, and, on a meta level, academic, popular-science and fanlike statements concerning internet memes. As a result of these analyses, the structural, pragmatic, cognitive and stylistic characteristics of particular aspects of the internet meme genre pattern were described. The structural features of the (internet) meme include multimodality, interactivity, intertextuality. The pragmatic features are the functional potential, the sender’s independence, the recipient’s active position. The cognitive aspect is the relevance of the topics discussed, and the comments represented the picture of the world of the message sender. The stylistic features of the meme include colloquiality and its manifestation in different types of language games. A multilevel character of the genre was observed not only in individual “meme-realizations” or individual “meme-series”, but also in a “meme template” itself.

dc.description.abstract

value: The purpose of this paper is to expand the understanding of the research potential on the hashtag. The author departs from the traditional understanding of the hashtag as a mechanism for structuring information flows in social networks and considers this phenomenon as the key to the study of the relation between language and consciousness under the conditions of the modern media space. In this work, the author adheres to the paradigm of media linguistic research where language is considered to be a cognitive mechanism, and the relationship between language and media is studied from the point of view of their impact on the conceptualization of reality. From the point of view of cognitive semantics, a hashtag can be described as a quantum of content obtained as a result of semantic compression of the content of a publication done by a sender. At the same time, a hashtag is able to set the model of interpretation of the marked message, that indicates its manipulative potential. The article demonstrates the possibilities of combining linguistic analysis of a hashtag, including cognitive semantics methods, with the application of automated monitoring technologies of social networks based on processing Big Data. According to the author, such a combination opens up new possibilities for the research into the relationship between language and consciousness, including the study of the network nature of collective cognitive space. At the same time, the author points out that the algorithms of working with hashtags in solving various problems related to the research of the conceptual sphere of the modern media space require a deeper development involving not only linguists but also specialists in the field of information technologies, communication theory, sociology, neuroscience and etc.

dc.description.abstract

value: The article raises the question about a four-part disciplinary status of media linguistics. The object of analysis in media linguistics is media text. The subject of the media linguistics is speech activity reflected in the media texts. The main method of analysis in media linguistics is praxeological which allows to select four scientific areas of media linguistics, the objectification of speech activity in each area gets the own consideration aspect. The first area is the grammar of media speech, which aims to identify patterns of linguistic tools selection. The second area is the stylistics of media text, which shows the impact of typical speech activity conditions in the linguistic structure of media text and set of actions for achieving the communicative goals in different contexts. The third — media linguistic discourse study — reveals what types of polycode tools express intertextual connections in a procedural unity. The fourth area — critical-evaluative — reveals manifestations of “language abuse” in the media, the norms of productive speech activities and assessment criteria of its effectiveness. Consequently, media linguistics, being of a fourfold discipline, uses the specified path of praxeology. Local methods are used for achieving the research objectives in each part of the media linguistics. In the grammar of media speech — methods of analysis of speech act as the components of texts, in media stylistics — method of stylistic analysis of media textual models — typical communicative actions, born of the aggregates of speech actions. In media linguistic discourse study — semantic-pragmatic method, showing communicative actions develop model procedures of speech activity in the media. In criticism of media speech — methods of cultural and speech analysis and critical linguistics. The four highlighted areas, the ongoing in the analysis of the interaction, gradually reveal different sides of effective speech activity in the media environment.

dc.description.abstract

value: The media speech influence the prepositional system of the Russian language is considered. The prepositional combinations (PC) with the invariant ‘domination’ are analyzed (there are about 200 units in the Russian language). On the background of the survey characteristic of this group, the microgroup of prepositional combinations with the invariant ‘observation’ is subjected to analysis. It is formed on the basis of the basic components-nouns. Despite the different degrees of being preposition, all the PC of this group form directive-local opposition: под наблюдение кого/чего — под наблюдением кого/чего. On the example of PC with basic component прицел a morphosyntagmatic paradigm consisting of 13 units is revealed. The peculiarities of the text paradigm formed by the prepositional combinations with this base component are also considered. The functions of syntaxeme used with the null-form of the name in the media speech are identified. PC type под прицелом demonstrates wide compatibility with managed nouns, the extensive nominative field of which includes lexis, which has a tendency to move from subject names to attributive (под прицелом ракет — под прицелом любви). Wide compatibility of the word прицел is the catalyst of its movement towards the grammaticalization in the composition of the prepositional combination. According to the Russian National Corpus, it is revealed that the peaks of active use of PC with the basic component прицел appear 2–3 years after the socio-political cataclysms in Russia. The conclusion about the duality of the phenomenon of the popularity of prepositional combinations with the basic component прицел is made. This phenomenon objectively reflects today’s society with the utmost openness of person’s life; but it is one of the lingvotoxic tools cultivated in the media, which forms a militaristic model of reality in the mass consciousness, adding to the information space its own portion of aggression and fear.

dc.description.abstract

value: On the basis of critical discourse analysis results of Slovak sociopolitical media, we study some its aspects: conversationalization, colloquialization, trivialization, vulgarization, fact uncertainty, infotainment and other manifestations of the prevailing “qualitative” reference points of the today media text intentionality. An intentionality problem as the main force of creation and decoding of any media text or media reality, as a peculiar construct on crossing of social and discursive realities, is quite difficult, therefore our research was limited to partial description, interpretation and explanation only of some aspects, mainly its language realization (on lexicon and syntax). The special attention is given over to the axiological deficiency of ideal maxims, which in the case of media institutional discourse are in ethical codes defined as communicative behavior. We consider axiological deficiency of media discourse at two levels — in the attitude towards “objective” reality and in relation to the text (a process of its creation). Maxims of journalistic professionalism in a certain measure were always an incomprehensible ideal: because of a human factor, there can’t be an absolutely non-ideological choice of the facts, and the role of the text “creator” needs intention judgment of his activity. It is considered necessary to put an accent on creativity as impartiality, a balance of facts, materials and views, no manipulation, high professional and language competence, accurate language feeling. The repeating of the defective phenomena, especially today very frequent axiological pathological persuasion, has negative consequences for traditional journalism: evoke with audience deny of standard, “classic” newsmakers in favor of alternative sources. We present a few examples from the Slovak periodical press illustrating our conclusions, and also a quite detailed critical analysis of the one media text on which we illustrate some identification moments of defective intentionality.

dc.description.abstract

value: The aim of the study was to establish what is a persuasive speech culture in modern political cultures of Russia and Serbia. As a material, 12 texts in Russian and 12 texts in Serbian were analyzed, these texts refer to candidates Sergei Sobyanin (candidate for mayor of Moscow) and Zoran Radojičić (candidate for mayor of Belgrade). The article shows that in both analyzed discourses the thesis “It is necessary to vote for candidate X” is substantiated by the following arguments: “Because the X team is the best”, “Because the country’s president supports the X nomination”, “Because a number of famous people support the candidacy of X”, “Because ordinary citizens support the nomination of X”. Media discourses of Russia and Serbia are distinguished by the rhetorical design of these arguments in the media discourse of Russia and Serbia. Media discourses in Russia and Serbia also differ in: a) the discourse of the Moscow candidate for mayor actively uses data on the positive results of his team’s work, while in the discourse of the Belgrade candidate for mayor the main means of creating a positive image of his team was the use of evaluative adjectives; b) the president of Russia assesses only the business qualities of the Moscow mayor, and the president of Serbia characterizes the Belgrade candidate as a person; c) ordinary Moscow citizens, whose images are represented in the Russian media discourse, have names and actively expressed civic position, while ordinary citizens of Belgrade have no names and are passive; d) the Moscow candidate does not comment on the criticism of opponents, while the Belgrade candidate puts label on the messages discrediting him and doesn’t counter-prove; e) an important place in the discourse of Belgrade mayoral elections is occupied by the self-presentation strategy of the candidate for mayor (as opposed to the discourse of elections in Moscow).

dc.description.abstract

value: On television, more frequent are the secondary forms of written language; spoken language is not spontaneous either: this is the televisual situation, televisual context, televisual writing, therefore — telesituation, telecontext, and telewriting. The author argues that the written language that appears on television constitutes an example of logovisuality. The author is interested in one of the levels of television discourse: the relevant programs of Polish tv channels. The research conducted by the author demonstrates that there are two kinds of logovisuality present on TV: primary and secondary, as well as several subtypes of the latter. The use of the written word as a means of echoing a picture, a sound, or a word is always secondary and bears the traits of intersemiotics. Language that is primarily written is presented on television as a text that is read. The types of logovisuality that are discussed in the article are as follows: 1) the texts displayed during the announcement of the presenter, and the written information about the station and the programme, 2) written information concerning the contents of the programme that is being broadcast, 3) explanations, 4) short statements informing about something which is currently not being talked about in the programme, 5) screen banners with summaries of what has just been said, 6) screen banners presenting fragments of on‑going conversations, 7) quotations of texts read by the presenter, 8) visible on the screen translations from the language A into the language B, 9) text messages, e‑mails, posts written by the viewers that are visible on the screen.
