dc.description.abstract

value:
The smart city concept strikes a discourse in the academic, media, political field in the present
period. Discursive topics for that matter are the concept implementation model of choice
determination, including its main structural parameters and the horizons of future development establishment. The challenge is the lack of a comprehensive approach to provide the
effectiveness of social elements in the model of implementation of the concept of the smart
city. The research issue includes an expert diagnosis parameter of the citizen as a subject. Set
of parameters characterizing the social space of the city, namely, activity, identity, norms of
trust and solidarity of the population, which together reflect the level of citizens’ subjectivity
is proposed to take as a system indicator of the model of concept’s realization. The author
model of the smart city concept implementation complements and expands the quadruplehelix
model. The purpose of the work is aimed at predictive-normative model diagnostics
by the expert community of the city for its integration into the management practice. Representatives
of authorities, businesses, non-profit organizations of six cities as experts (Tyumen,
Tobolsk, Khanty-Mansiysk, Surgut, Salekhard, Novy Urengoy) evaluated the implementation,
prospects of the approach in their cities and the possibility of including the subjective model
in management practice. The survey uncovered some degree of contradictions in the positions
of experts on the predictive and normative model for the concept’s implementation. Most
experts admit the increasing city dwellers subjectivity, but do not see opportunities and conditions
for new forms of its institutionalization. As whole expert attitudes are not predictive,
but rather demonstrate a prolongation of the existing provisions and trends of urban development.
Nevertheless, the study showed that the parameters of the subject model are not in
conflict with the existing model and can be used in the practice of urban management.

dc.description.abstract

value:
Modern social development, which is an imperative of world politics, has turned out to be dependent
on the geopolitical changes taking place in the international arena, as well as the challenges
and threats facing humanity. The purpose of the work is to reveal the causes of geopolitical
uncertainty, identify trends in social development and prospects of world politics in the current
conditions. As a methodological tool for identifying the influence of dominant ideas on the construction
of the international system and world politics, a constructivist approach to international
relations has been applied, in which any international actor interacting with an international
structure influences it and falls under its influence, which allows us to consider the problem in
the interconnectedness and interdependence of actions taken by actors. The article analyzes the
work of researchers on threats and challenges to the modern world, suggests factors that, from
the author’s point of view, radically influenced modern world politics, which led to geopolitical
uncertainty, outlines trends in modern development and prospects in world politics, concludes
that Western world development projects are ideologized and the inability of modern elites to
effectively to solve world political problems, in connection with which reasonable political activity remains an unrealized dream. The basis of world politics, according to the author, is the ability to
survive and effectively solve problems related to challenges and threats in the global world, so
there is no alternative to the formation of a world order in which the interests of all political actors
are taken into account and it becomes possible to negotiate with each other in the name of common
world political interests.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The author attempts to characterize the public-power institutions of the Manchu-Mongol peoples
after the collapse of the Qing Empire, reflected in little-known academic Russian-speaking
emigrant sources of the first half of the twentieth century. The revolutionary events in China in
1911–1912 and the abdication of the infant emperor from the throne gave rise to the problem of
the legitimacy of the new central government. Not solved from the point of view of law, it led the
country to the actual disintegration of the country and the formation of new nation-states. China
itself in 1912 It became a republic, and a struggle for the formation of two regional orders unfolded
on its borders: between Russia, imperial, and then Soviet, and Japan. The regional order in the
zone of Russian interests was based on the statehood of Khalkha-Mongolia, the northernmost
part of the Mongolian world, which at the end of 1911 chose the path of the theocratic monarchy,
to which Barga tried to join in 1912–1915. The regional order in the zone of Japanese interests has
always been associated with Manchuria, which declared independence as Manchukuo with the
invasion of the Japanese on the continent. Inner Mongolia also falls into its orbit, forcibly divided
into 3 special regions in 1914, and later, with the help of the Japanese, declared sovereignty as
the state of Mengjiang. The institutions of public power built up in these policies are characterized
by an attempt to restore ancient state traditions, but the key tools in the formation of order and
in the change of statuses are the statehood accumulated by these peoples and demonstrating
the “ability” to have state sovereignty and international recognition, as well as autonomy, which in
some cases was the starting point when falling away from the former empire, and in others — the
final one while remaining part of republican China.

dc.description.abstract

value: Arctic region is rapidly transforming into a global theatre with a growing number of non-Arctic stakeholders. One illustration of this transformation process is China's growing presence in the Arctic. This article analyses the scientific literature, including scientific journals, doctoral and master's theses, statistical yearbooks, e-books, patents and standards available in the Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) - Chinese-language scientific publications database, the Russian scientific portal's equivalent, elibrary. Priority topics in Chinese Arctic research were identified -meteorology, oceanography, education, China's international relations, biology. It is obvious that most Chinese scientists are interested in issues linked with the Northern Sea Route development in various aspects - transport infrastructure, international transit regime, oceanography. China's position is defined: the Northern Sea Route is primarily an international shipping route, and not Russian asset. For the last 5 years, several new conceptual documents have appeared that provide a clearer picture of China's Arctic policy (China White Paper 2018). In 2023, a joint Russian-Chinese working body for the development of the Northern Sea Route is planned to be established. The list of the most cited Chinese authors and the most famous Chinese scientific papers is presented in the article in order to recognize and highlight Chinese scientific research on the Arctic in Chinese. The goal of the article is to demonstrate Chinese scientific research access to the Russian audience, as well as to evaluate both volumes and topics of scientific work created in Chinese and related to the Arctic.

The article deals with youth lyrics of Edith Södergran — a prominent poet-modernist
of Swedish descent who was born and went to school in St. Petersburg. Edith
Södergrans’ professional oeuvres were written in the Swedish language and published
in Finland, her earliest poems being composed in several languages: German, French,
Swedish and Russian yet never published in her lifetime. It was at St Peter’s School —
Sankt-Petri-Schule that Edith Södergran commenced poetic exercises. Waxcloth Notebook
from 1907–1909 — Vaxvukshäftet — where she recorded her first uneven, and
heterogeneous in form and metrics, verses is decisive in comprehending her mature
modernist lyrics of world value. The article suggests that some of the poems have a
character of exercises associated with the curriculum in versification. Poetry chosen
is composed in various versification systems. Analysis of seven poems from Waxcloth
Notebook demonstrates Södergran’s natural ease for drawing emphatical images and for
discovering inner feelings at the same time. Her quick eye and rooted insight combined
with native ability and cleverness to render colors and to bring dynamic movement
or slow it down is highly convincing in verses dedicated to her native St. Petersburg
in German and in her first poems in Swedish. Her unschooled talent evolved by early
poetic experiments and aesthetic sense advanced by St. Petersburg prepared further
transformation of Södergran as self-sustained word painter and reformer of versification
in the Swedish language.

value:
In the 19th — early 20th centuries at St. Petersburg University, Scandinavian philology
was understood as the study of Old Norse literary works, mostly in connection
with the history of Russia, there was no teaching of modern languages. The first
Scandinavian language, Swedish, was taught for the first time in 1935 and they began
to actively study the Scandinavian languages. The Norwegian department was opened
in 1945, the Danish in 1947. A great contribution to the scientific study of various
aspects of Scandinavian languages was made by the scientific and organizational activities
of professor M. I. Steblin-Kamensky, who published numerous works on Scandinavian
linguistics, as well as on medieval literature and mythology. He initiated the
creation of the country’s first department of Scandinavian philology at Leningrad University
in 1958, which he headed for 30 years. The founder of Swedish linguistics was
S. S. Maslova-Lashanskaya, author of the most important works. V. P. Berkov created a whole library with his works on the Norwegian language. He is recognized as one of the
world’s largest lexicographers, a specialist in bilingual dictionaries. The Scandinavists
who worked at the department in different years made a significant contribution to
science. In 1972, the Dutch/Netherlands branch was opened, which in a short time
showed great scientific potential. Professor I. M. Mikhailova, the author of numerous
publications in the field of Dutch linguistics and literary criticism, is the head of the
department of Scandinavian and Dutch Philology.

dc.description.abstract

value:
This is the first review of the existing research on the topic of indirect translation
in Dutch-Russian language pair. Both theoretical justifications for the study of
this problem (H. Pięta, M. Ringmar, C. Dollerup, etc.) and the results of empirical research (I. E. Kuznetsova, H. van der Tak, I. M. Michajlova, etc.) are presented. The paper
includes observations on the influence of the mediating language on the creation of
the first dictionaries, translation of scientific works, legal documents and fiction, and
separately highlights the issue of using English as a “pivot language” in popular online
translators. The main problem in this case becomes the translation of personal pronouns
and homonyms. In recent years, on the one hand, researchers have been fighting
the stigmatisation of mediated translation as a priori inferior and proving that mediated
languages link distant cultures and play an important role in the dissemination of
literature. On the other hand, textual analyses of different types of indirect translations
reveal errors and inaccuracies that could have been easily avoided in direct translation.
An intermediary translation can be seen as a translation made with the help of a
language other than the source language, but not necessarily from a “third language”:
when translation plurality occurs, we can often speak of intralanguage indirect translation.
This paper uses Multatuli’s novel Max Havelaar as an illustration, in particular
the 1959 Russian edition, where German and Russian translations mediate. Resorting
to the help of their predecessors, the Russian translators omit the same fragments, use
similar paraphrases, and repeat lexical and phonetic distortions. The use of mediating
texts is certainly related to extra-linguistic factors: lack of translators, demand for
texts, publishers’ desire to reduce costs or speed up the translation process. The study of
specific cases of indirect translation and further systematisation of the identified distortions
allows us to track negative trends, and the novel Max Havelaar and its translations
into different languages can serve as material for identifying these patterns.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The growing popularity of online communication, where participants increasingly
convey their feelings and emotions using minimal characters, has significantly
increased the role of interjections in modern language. This research is based on
the translation into Russian of the comic book Het Amusement by the Flemish author
Brecht Evens (translated by E. Tortsyna). In the comics, the use of interjections,
alongside graphic techniques, plays an extremely important role. When rendering
interjections, the translator relies primarily on the context. The translation strategy is
connected with the search for a word or expression, which will preserve the semantic,
stylistic and functional-communicative information contained in the original. The
language of the comic book under study demonstrates the features of the southern
variant of colloquial Dutch (tussentaal, ‘intermediate language’), first of all, at the level
of interjections, which in the southern variant differ from the “northern” ones. The
results of the study consist in a systematised review of the ways of rendering Dutch
interjections into Russian, with an important role given to the functional-semantic
characteristics of these lexical units. Both primary and secondary interjections are of
particular interest when studying the problem of interjection translation, as in some
cases, the internal form of a secondary interjection in the original does not coincide
with the internal form of an interjection chosen by the translator. The omission of
an interjection is also an interesting technique, where there is a redistribution of the
expressive nuances of an original interjection among elements of the utterance in the
translated text.

dc.description.abstract

value:
As has been noted in grammaticalization literature, partitives, i. e. nominals encoding
parts, portions, and sets, tend to evolve into vague quantifiers, and then into
degree adverbs. However, while this grammaticalization path has already received a
fair amount of scholarly attention in English, the extension of such items beyond the
nominal domain in Swedish remains an empirically unexplored territory. Thus, based
on random samples of attestations extracted from selected Språkbanken corpora, this
paper offers a synchronic glimpse into the syntactic expansion of nine Swedish nominal
quantifiers, namely droppe ‘drop’, nypa ‘pinch’, smula ‘crumb’, hop ‘heap’, hopar ‘heaps’,
hög ‘pile’, högar ‘piles’, massa ‘mass’, and massor ‘masses’. The Swedish results largely
coincide with those obtained for English, and demonstrate that in the verbal domain,
most of the scrutinized elements reveal a preference for pronominal uses, in which they
function as an argument of the verb rather than a genuine degree adverb, but which
nonetheless give rise to secondary scalar inferences, whereas in the adjectival domain,
a majority of the items exhibit a propensity to combine with the comparative forms of
adjectives/adverbs. Both of these environments may therefore be assumed to constitute
bridging contexts in the emergence of full-blown degree modifier uses of grammaticalized
partitives. It is further shown that there exists a strong positive correlation between
the items’ respective degrees of grammaticalization in the quantifier function and their extents of adverbialization, which testifies to the importance of frequency of use in the
scrutinized instance of grammaticalization.

dc.description.abstract

value:
This article presents a classification of those artistic devices that the Danish philosopher
Søren Kierkegaard uses in his work The Sickness unto Death. We will talk about such
figures of speech as metaphor and simile. This classification arose as a result of the translation
and analysis of the treatise since its careful study showed that these stylistic devices
are not single and random means of expression designed to decorate or diversify the text,
but an integral part of Kierkegaard’s philosophical thinking, which is characterized by
figurativeness and concreteness. Kierkegaard blames modern philosophers for abstract
thinking divorced from reality, and to present his ideas he chooses a figurative language
replete with concrete comparisons since he sees it as his task to consider the real problems
of human life. This classification is based on the division of artistic devices not according
to their type, but according to their semantics. Each group of devices is a “semantic field”
from which Kierkegaard drew metaphors and comparisons for a more precise and at the
same time more figurative description of his views. The article considers the nine most
common semantic fields, while in The Sickness unto Death, there are more than twenty of
them. Since metaphors and comparisons are an integral part of Kierkegaard’s text, a careful
study of them is very important both for philosophers who want to penetrate deeper
into the concept of the Danish thinker, and for translators who seek to convey the author’s
original text as accurately as possible. Thus, the main task of the presented classification
is to approach the understanding of the concept of “despair” through those figurative
characteristics that Kierkegaard endows them with.

value:
The article is an initial attempt to identify, represent, and classify verbs of oscillatory
motion in Norwegian. The mentioned verbs belong to the lexical-semantic group
of motion verbs, but while preserving the integral feature of the semantic group (the
physical movement of living beings and objects in space), they have their own characteristic
features. Verbs denoting motion in which the object, while moving from
the initial point to another, tends to return to it and generally remains within the
confines of a more or less defined location, are grouped as verbs of oscillatory motion.
The authors of studies conducted on the material of other languages divide this
group into two subgroups: verbs of oscillatory motion per se (swaying) and verbs of
vibrational motion. The second subgroup is beyond the scope of this article. The linguistic
material is drawn from the online explanatory Norwegian dictionary [NAOB]
and supplemented with data collected from contemporary mass media sources. As a
result of the study, we identified and described 32 verbs of oscillatory motion. The
results of this study can be used for further typological studies of Norwegian and
other languages.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The importance of a new translation of Karen Blixen’s The African Farm is based
on two factors: the book has never been translated from Danish (although the Danish
version differs from the English version), and existing translations of the English
version contain a number of inaccuracies. Karen Blixen’s book The African Farm was
published in English in the UK in 1937 under the title Out of Africa. In the same year,
Karen Blixen published the Danish text of the book under the title Den afrikanske farm.
This book is not the only example of Karen Blixen’s own translations from English into
Danish, as she also translated some of her short stories after their first publication in
English. It is still a controversial issue whether her translations may be considered “copies”
of the original works or they should be regarded as recreations in Danish. This article
presents a comparative analysis of the English and the Danish texts of The African
Farm which confirms that we are talking about two different versions of the work, since
while creating the Danish text, Karen Blixen used several transformations: transpositions,
substitutions, additions and omissions. The notion of “transformation” in this article
implies a very wide range of modifications. The author makes significant changes
to the original text. The result is a new text with quite a number of differences from
English; the text that awaits translation from Danish. Out of Africa has been translated
from English into Russian twice. The translations by experienced translators make a
significant contribution to the history of literary contacts between Denmark and Russia;
however, they contain a number of errors due to misunderstanding of Danish and
African realities, as well as disregard for the specific situation. Translation of the Danish
version of The African Farm is necessary not only because the Danish version has never
been translated into Russian, but also because it would allow for the explication of some
themes important for Karen Blixen that were “lost” in the translations from English.
The present study does not presuppose consideration of literary aspects. It involves only differences between the Danish and the English versions of the novel, as well as the
analysis of existing translations from English.

value:
In this article, I first give a detailed sketch of censorship in the GDR. I start from
a 2019 interview with German writer and publisher Gerhard Wolf. He tries to explain
the acceptance in the GDR of the censorship introduced by the new state in his youth.
In doing so, I use a general definition of censorship drawn up by Christine Haug, then
go into the early years of that censorship and then make clear the essential difference
between censorship in the GDR and that in other communist countries in Eastern Europe
during these years. Censorship in the GDR was supported in part by authors who
had returned from exile, such as Arnold Zweig. I also quote Bertolt Brecht’s warning
in his play Der aufhaltsame Aufstieg des Arturo Ui (1941; The Resistible Rise of Arturo
Ui) against the still vibrant National Socialist ideology in the years after 1945. Next,
I describe the HV, the department at the Ministry of Culture that dealt with censorship
from 1963. It was responsible not only for the libraries and the GDR’s entire literary
production, such as sales, imports and exports, including the import of literature

dc.description.abstract

value:
The path motif is one of the major dominants in the works of prominent 20thcentury
poetsof Finland, both Finnish and Swedishnative speakers. Understanding life
as a road is what Eino Leino shares in common with Uuno Kailas, Paavo Haavikko,
Risto Ahti, Heli Laaksonen, Edith Södergran, and Ralf Nordgren. Their position coincides
with the creative concepts of Alexander Blok and the ideas of pilgrimage in
European literature and in Kalevalian poetry. 20th-century Finnish poetry falls into all-
European line. But in Finnish poetry, the path motif has existed since the epic songs:
Lemminkäinen’s escape, folklore heroes’ journey in search of a bride, and Kalevalians’
quest to recover the Sampo. Furthermore, travelers’ purposes ranged from noble and
holy to everyday and mundane. In the early 20th century, Finnish neo-Romanticists,
referring to the history of national culture, travelled frequently to Finnish and Russian
Karelia. Since the 1920s, poets have been referring to the road image as the “holy
road of calling” (Uuno Kailas) a singer has no right to turn away from. In post-World
War II poetry, moving in a circle or “back and forth” (Risto Ahti) is, in any case, moving
forward. The important thing is not to get stranded, not to run into a wall. The path
dominant becomes deeply intertwined with the image of a home, as the path motif does
with the image of time, life cycle, and biography. A real, geographical, biographical, and
spiritual path become one, and on that path high is combined with low or even vile. In
modern Finnish poetry, the path theme found a new life with different, sometimes not
matching nuances, while still remaining relevant and arguably primary.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article investigates a case of color usage in Revelation 6:8 and various ways it
has been translated into Danish. The Greek χλωρός used to describe the horse under the
fourth Horseman of the Apocalypse is polysemic and thus rather difficult to interpret,
which resulted in numerous variations among translators. The image of Death on a pale
horse has become part of the Western cultural heritage, although linguists have argued if
this equivalent is indeed accurate in terms of color meaning comprised within the original
lexeme. Fourteen translations, from medieval to modern, allowed to scrutinize some
particular features of rendering this intricate color term in Danish, rising the main question
of the study: why do so many Danish translations opt for the chromatic meaning of
yellow in the given passage? In order to answer that, firstly, all of the translations were
examined from the point of view of the time they were made, the primary source that the
works were based upon and the special characteristics of chosen equivalents of χλωρός.
Secondly, a few external sources were introduced in order to put the issue in a broader
linguacultural context, such as the language, color symbolism and early Danish church
art. This approach has helped to determine possible reasons for Death’s horse turning
yellow, like the influence of German, deadly connotations of the Danish color term gul
‘yellow’ when referring to paleness and the bad symbolic reputation of color yellow itself.

dc.description.abstract

value:
This article discusses the function of the murder motif in M. C. Hansen’s prose. It
shows that this motif is strongly related to the author’s quest for novel ways to represent
reality, his ambition to portray the private lives of everyday Norwegians, and his goal
to illustrate the moral development — or, on the contrary, the degeneration — of his
characters. A crucial plot-forming device, the motif of murder is frequently combined
with the motif of insanity as retaliation for the committed crime. It is possible to see
how a critical view of modernity gradually replaces the distinct religious pathos of Hansen’s
early prose (Den gale Christian (The Mad Christian), Keadan, eller Klosterruinen
(Keadan, or the Abbey Ruins), Novellen (The Short Story), Den myrdede brudgom (The
Murdered Groom)), inevitably leading to the emergence of a new kind of hero. The
nature of this hero is determined by the surroundings and environment, the narrative
becomes more psychologizing, and the interest in daily life takes the place of the theme
of the moral revival (Jutulskoppen (The Troll Mountain) and Mordet på Maskinbygger
Roolfsen (The Murder of Engine Maker Roolfsen)). Hansen’s writings from this time
period are distinguished by a tragic perspective. The notion of a moral revival of man
loses its appeal to the author. He feels that profit and vanity have replaced love, and that
true feelings are doomed to vanish. The themes of mistrust between close people, the
corruption of the ruling class, the oppressed position of the people, and the inability to
escape from social oppression take on a new significance. We discover that Hansen’s interest
in the everyday and private lives of regular people is linked to his search for artistic
research tools, whereas the motifs of murder and crime investigation aid the writer
in creating a vivid and accurate picture of contemporary Norwegian society while also
making his narratives more entertaining.

Goal: to apply an integral approach to building a model of a multi-level macroecosystem of
nation branding based on: analyzing of options for representing the brand phenomenon in the
context of the modern international division of labor; applying the brand concept behind the
borders of markets for goods/services and relationships between their producers, sellers and
consumers. Methodology: the theoretical research was carried out on the basis of a semanticconceptual
analysis of publications relevant to the purposes of the article concerning issues of
brand representation, the country-of-origin effect, pseudo-foreign brands and the ecosystem
approach in economics. Findings: three aggregated categories of brands were identified, their
definitions were developed and relevant examples in various areas of the country’s socio-economic
life were considered, as well as the feasibility of an ecosystem approach to country branding
was substantiated. Originality and contribution of the authors: for the first time, along
with the category of true brands of goods/services and corporations, quasi-brands and pseudobrands
are comprehensively considered (with special attention paid to the state and prospects
of pseudo-foreign branding in Russia); in addition, an original model of a multi-level macroecosystem
of country branding and a corresponding definition of the latter are proposed. Besides,
the identification of complex connections between brands of these three categories made it
possible to propose the author’s model of a centralized multilevel macroecosystem of nation
branding and an original definition of the latter.

Goal: the analysis of the Russian travel technological startups’ managerial practices during the
COVID-19 pandemic and geopolitical situation of 2022–2023. Methodology: the empirical research
was based on the case-study method. Two series of the in-depth interviews with the
startups founders focusing on the reaction of the startups on the COVID-19 and geopolitical
situation in 2022–2023 were carried. Findings: the results demonstrate the significant changes
in the startups behavior in 2023 in comparison to the pandemic COVID-19 period. So far
during the pandemic the startups made the deliberated strategic decisions on the products
development paying much attention to HR practices aiming at building solid teams. After March
2022, the ad-hoc decision focusing on the markets (including geographical) identification prevail;
organization managerial practices moved to the peripheral attention. Originality and
contribution of the authors: the information technologies have recently dramatically affected
the tourism industry. Despite the fact the Russian travel technological startups, being the notable players of the travel industry, offer a wide range of the technological solutions,
there is still a lack of research on the startups’ managerial practices. The current paper is the
first one that analyzes the Russian travel technological startups’ managerial practices during
the dramatic transformation of the Russian tourism industry caused by the COVID-19 pandemic

Goal: to determine how three business model adaptation (BMA) strategies (namely, product
development, market development, and diversification) influence firm profitability through the
mediating mechanisms of customer behavioral loyalty and acquisition during the
COVID-19 pandemic. Methodology: the study is based on a telephone survey of 210 Russian
micro and small enterprises conducted in the beginning of 2022. Structural equation modeling
is used to test the relationships between three BMA strategies, customer behavioral loyalty,
customer acquisition, and firm profitability. Findings: three BMA strategies positively influence
customer acquisition but have no effects on customer behavioral loyalty. In turn, customer
behavioral loyalty and acquisition unequally contribute to firm profitability. Diversification
strategy is found to be the only strategy that positively influences firm profitability during the
crisis. This effect is mediated neither by customer loyalty nor customer acquisition but is
supposedly achieved through the strategic choice of higher-margin destination markets.
Originality and contribution of the authors: the study contributes to the literature on crisis
management by examining the effects of product development, market development, and
diversification strategies on firm performance in the crisis environment characterized by
shrinking demand and increasing turbulence. Unlike most existing studies, the current study
goes beyond testing the overall effect of BMA on firm financial performance in times of crises
and uncovers customer retention and acquisition mechanisms that mediate this effect, thus
reuniting strategic management and marketing areas.

Goal: healthy snacks have received increased attention in the food science and technology
literature. Nevertheless, studies exploring how factors in the micro and macro market
environment can create opportunities and threats for companies in the healthy snacks market
are still lacking. The goal of this research is to provide a road map to help companies’ strategic
directions by examining the micro and macro market environment variables of the healthy
snack market. Methodology: we conducted interviews with stakeholders of the healthy snack
sector who are knowledgeable and skilled in monitoring and assessing both micro and macro
environmental factors. The managers of the firms that are the suppliers, producers, sellers,
and distributors of the industry, as well as customers who are aware of healthy food
consumption, were interviewed in-depth and semi-structured interviews. Then, content analysis
was employed, which uses a set of procedures to make valid inferences from the text.
Findings: a correct and accurate strategic orientation starts with a successful analysis process.
In this context, the main problems/developments are identified through sectoral structure
and sectoral trend analyses, and the opportunities and threats that these will present to
companies are revealed. Finally, marketing actions have been proposed to seize these
opportunities and overcome the threats. At this point, three important strategic marketing
objectives that will guide the strategic orientation of the companies stand out. Originality
and contribution of the authors: the paper is the first jointly to examine two sides of the
healthy snack market (firm and customer perspective). The study’s findings, which were
based on in-depth interviews with managers of healthy snacks companies and customers
who have high health awareness, provide a road map for firms engaged in strategic marketing.

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is an effective treatment for
many malignant and non-malignant diseases of the blood system. With an existing need of
five thousand HSCT per year, about two thousand are performed, therefore, not all those in
need receive this type of treatment. The purpose of the study is to study the main problems
of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, to identify risk factors, frequency of
occurrence and impact on the outcome of allo-HSCT of key post-transplant complications.
A large number of nationalities and ethnic groups live in the country, characterized by a
unique distribution and frequency of HLA alleles, which led to the formation of a specific
allelic polymorphism of HLA genes, characteristic only for residents of Russia. In this regard,
about 25 % of patients do not have a compatible donor in the world. Graft failure is a group
of complications characterized by two- or three-lineage cytopenia in combination with bone
marrow hypo-/aplasia and is a major cause that impairs patients short-term survival rates
after allo-HSCT and affects an average of 40 % of all recipients. The study confirms the need
to replenish the Federal Register with new hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) donors, which
will increase the likelihood of finding a compatible HSC donor for the recipient with a nondisseminated
HLA genotype.

value:
The article presents a retrospective analysis of bibliographical sources devoted to the development
and use of telemedicine technologies in Russia and abroad. Each historical period had
ultimate and advanced technologies for telemedicine purposes. Telemedicine history can be
viewed as a gradual progression of communication tools and remote information exchange.
On the other hand, stages of telemedicine history are based on the progressive development of
clinical capabilities. Telemedicine development can be classified into periods by technological
types of telecommunications (telephone, radio, satellite communications, etc.) and by clinical
forms of application (remote transmission of diagnostic examination data; teleconsultations
for planned and emergency care; telemedicine for remote work; biotelemetry; telemonitoring;
mobile telemedicine for remote and hard-to-reach areas, etc.) In both cases, periods have
blurred and tentative boundaries, with many stages “intersecting” or ongoing simultaneously.
It can be remarked that “remote provision of medical aid and medical services through telecommunications”
had globally started at least 50 years before the very idea and concept of
telemedicine was formulated, and the term came into use. Telemedicine has been successfully
applied in many countries, including the Russian Federation, and has proven to be an effective
method for improving access to medical services in lowly populated and remote areas and for
reducing the costs of medical services.

value:
Cobb’s angle is until now considered the gold standard method for measuring the angle of scoliosis. The subjectivity of this method has always been its main disadvantage. The aim of this work is to evaluate a new system (computer program) “Esper.Scoliosis”, based on artificial neural networks that can measure Cobb’s angle automatically on frontal radiographs. We compared the angles measured by the automatic system with measurements of a radiologist using a testing set of 114 digital X-rays with variable grades of scoliosis. In 84.8 % of scoliotic curvatures detected by the system, no significant measurement variability (< 2,5°) of the angles was found between the two methods. The system shows better results in X-rays with scoliosis
grades 1 and 2. In our work, image quality has the largest effect on accuracy of the system and
measurement’s variability. We concluded that controlled clinical use of “Esper.Scoliosis” for automatic Cobb’s angle measurement is recommended.

Using Fourier IR spectroscopy and spermograms, a series of sperm samples isolated by centrifugation
from ejaculate in normal and with different types of pathology, followed by drying for 12–14 hours at room temperature (20–22 °C) on slides, was studied. The high informative value of the method for the study of the material composition of sperm cells and the pool of associated cell forms (epithelial cells, spermatogenesis, leukocytes, lecithin grains) was noted. The depth of IR radiation penetration (2–10 microns), allows us to estimate the total content and configuration-conformational forms of proteins (Amide-I and Amide-II bands), polypeptides (1572 cm–1), carbohydrate (1100–1000 cm–1) and lipid (1236, 1172, 1155 cm–1) components,

It has been shown that a decrease in the quality of spermatozoa is accompanied by a decrease in the content of phospholipids, the content and quality of protein structures affecting the viability of the cell and its functional ability, and a simultaneous increase in the content of polypeptide and carbohydrate components in the composition of glyco-peptide complexes. The data obtained can be useful for improving the methods and methods of diagnostic analysis and treatment against the background of the
growth of the male factor in the problem of infertile marriages.

value:
Primary aldosteronism is one of the most common causes of secondary arterial hypertension.
The probability of its detection is especially high in patients with hypertension resistant
to ongoing therapy. The purpose of the review is to analyze the causes of underdiagnosis of
primary aldosteronism based on the data of modern publications, discuss the main trends in
approaches to identifying this pathological condition, and justify the need for closer interaction
between all specialists involved in the process of providing medical care to patients of
this category. The review provides data on the groups of patients in whom it is most helpful to
screen primary aldosteronism, and the frequency of this screening in real practice. The advantages
and disadvantages of using various criteria for the primary diagnosis of primary aldosteronism
are analyzed. The need for common approaches to the methodology of examination
and management of patients with suspected primary aldosteronism is discussed for general
practitioners, therapists, cardiologists, organizers of laboratory services and endocrinologists.
The negative consequences of long-term exposure to elevated levels of aldosterone on the
cardiovascular system of patients with primary aldosteronism, their cardiovascular prognosis
are analyzed. The necessity of the most thorough identification of patients with primary aldosteronism subject to surgical treatment is substantiated. Criteria for the effectiveness of
drug therapy in case of non-indication or impossibility of performing surgical intervention
are given.

The article presents a review of the literature about the quality of life of plastic surgeon’s patients.
Moreover, article considers the historical aspects and the current state of the issue of assessing
the quality of life in the Russian Federation and abroad. It has been shown that plastic
surgery improves the patient’s quality of life, however, there are cases when patients negatively
evaluate the results of the intervention. At the same time, plastic surgeon’s patients are characterized
by mental disorders (depression, body dysmorphic disorder, personality disorders),
a long duration of the disease and the presence of “defect” of the body (anatomical and functional
defects of the body, malformations). Drew conclusions shows that, in combination with
surgical intervention, these factors can reduce the patient’s quality of life. The review presents
general and special questionnaires for assessing the quality of life of a plastic surgeon patient.
The article states that the assessment of the quality of life in plastic surgery is associated with
objective difficulties, and there is absolute insufficiency of validated, reliable and sensitive
quality of life measuring methods of plastic surgeon’s patients in the Russian Federation.

value:
In patients with premature ventricular contractions, the main cause of cardiomyopathy associated
with arrhythmia is considered to be a large number of premature ventricular contractions.
The width and fragmentation of QRS complex, morphology, prematurity index, polymorphism
and some other characteristics may also play a role. Previously, the hemodynamic
features of several variants of premature ventricular contractions such as allorhythmia (bigeminy),
paired and interpolated premature ventricular contractions and ventricular parasystole
have not been evaluated. We perform examples of these types of ventricular arrhythmias
with assessment of their hemodynamic properties using the original method of accurate determination
of systolic, diastolic and pulse blood pressure during each beat of the heart “beat
to beat”. The main properties of premature ventricular complexes have been demonstrated:
a marked decrease in systolic and an increase in diastolic blood pressure. As an example, in
ventricular parasystole these indicators have been shown to be dependent on the clutch interval
of premature ventricular contractions: the shorter it is, the more advanced the changes.
Bigeminy and interpolated premature ventricular contractions appears to be hemodynamically
unfavorable.

dc.description.abstract

value: The article is devoted to teaching Russian as a non-native language at school using the material of Russian and Uzbek paremias that represent the image of a child.The comparison of phraseological units in second language classes contributes to the formation of a bilingual linguistic personality, which is the most important task of teaching Russian to foreign-speaking schoolchildren. The purpose of the article is to determine the directions of work with paremias in the children’s audience in a comparative aspect. The research material was Russian and Uzbek paremias representing the image of a child. Using the method of comparative-contrastive analysis, similarities and differences of phraseological units were determined based on the main thematic groups of paremias. By means of theoretical modeling, the ways of including paremias in teaching process and the recommended sequence of work with phraseological units in linguocultural classes in Russian as a second language were determined. The conducted research allowed to conclude that the main cognitive features of Russian and Uzbek paremias are significantly similar in the presence of certain differences. The distinctive features of Uzbek paremias include the reflection of a more tolerant attitude towards the shortcomings of the child, the idea of differences in the upbringing of a daughter and a son, the explication of the image of an ungrateful child. In Russian paremias, unlike Uzbek ones, the complexity of the upbringing process and the need for strict methods of influence are reflected, the individuality of the child is allowed at the same time as the recognition of frequent similarity with the parent. The paremias can become illustrative material in teaching Russian as second language when mastering various aspects of the language or the subject of study in special linguoculturological classes in middle and high school. Russian and Uzbek paremias identified similarities and differences allowed to offer examples of tasks for different stages of classes aimed at mastering the paremiological fund of the Russian language. The novelty of the study lies in the fact that it methodically interprets language material that has not previously been the object of consideration in a comparative aspect.

dc.description.abstract

value: The author argues that modern digital etiquette is in the process of formation and constantly evolving. Old norms of business correspondence do not always align with the current conditions and users’ views on effective and ethical communication. Researchers are faced with the question of what can serve as a source of information on emerging ethical and linguistic norms. The purpose of the article is to prove that the analysis of language reflection can be an effective way to study the norms of modern digital etiquette. The study conducted in the fall of 2022 used the method of analyzing the corpus of language reflection. The dataset obtained through a two-stage survey includes an assessment by 3464 Internet users of 92 formulas and expressions used in digital correspondence. The article analyzes the state of modern digital etiquette, substantiates the need for the analysis of language reflection to study ethical and speech norms, describes the methodology of studying language reflection through surveys, and con cludes on the necessity of analyzing language reflection to capture trends in digital etiquette. The novelty of the article is determined by at least two factors. Firstly, it addresses the topic of unexplored and unstable norms of digital etiquette. Secondly, it highlights the need to analyze language reflection on the rules of speech behavior on the web. The significance of the study is related to the fact that digital etiquette norms are constantly changing, and researchers need a tool to capture such changes. The practical value of the study is that it enables certain recommendations on email etiquette and warns against potential communicative failures in internet communication.

dc.description.abstract

value: The article is devoted to Anglicisms-neologisms with the meaning of ‘generation’, which have become quite widespread in modern journalistic discourse and go back to the metalan guage of the “theory of generations” by W. Strauss and N. Howe (lexemes millennials, zoomers, boomers and others). The purpose of the article is to identify how well does native Russian speakers understand the meaning of these words, identify the most common neologisms that claim to be included in the Russian language, compare the data of the National Corpus of the Russian language (NCRL) with the results of a linguistic experiment, describe the meanings of the most common neologisms based on the data of the NCRL, contexts collected by the authors on other Internet resources and conducted linguistic experiments. The article presents the results of two linguistic surveys in which 70 undergraduate students of the humanitarian faculties of Lomonosov Moscow State University participated (35 respondents in each survey). The Survey-1 was aimed at identifying which terms of the “theory of generations” or its Russian adaptations, reproduced by the domestic media, are known to young educated native speakers of the Russian language and are used in speech by them. According to the results of the Survey-1, the words boomers, zoomers, millennials were selected for the Survey-2, which aims to determine the meanings attributed to these words by informants, to identify the level of active ownership. As a result of the Survey-2, a significant discrepancy was found with the quantitative data of the NCRL sample (according to the results of the Survey-2, the most commonly used and mastered word is zoomer, it is the least frequent in the NCRL sample). The word zoomer has the meaning of ‘new generation’, ‘digital generation’, enters into semantic opposition with other generational nominations, mainly with boomers, on the basis of ‘new/ old’, in a number of contexts this opposition is presented as a conflict of fathers and children. The results of linguistic experiments show that relatively common terms break away from the chronological boundaries set in the “theory of generations”: the words boomer and zoomer develop the meanings of ‘parents generation, older generation’ and ‘children’s generation, new generation’. The lexeme millennials is chronologically attributed due to the internal form, however, the generation boundaries indicated by respondents in the surveys differ significantly from those set in the “theory of generations”, the respondents’ answers show a change in meaning from “new generation” to “previous generation”.

dc.description.abstract

value: The article is devoted to the teaching of Russian literature in a Chinese technical university. The purpose of the article is to present ways of increasing motivation to study Russian literature. The author offers various ways of working with works of literature, including a comparison of works with similar plots and ideological basis, written by authors from different countries. One of the reasons for the need to address this problem is the peculiarities of psychology and atti tudes towards reading among modern young people. The results of the analysis of the knowledge of Chinese students in the field of Russian literature, conducted by the author, show that students do not know it well, however, thanks to the influence of their parents, they respect and would like to know more. Reforms in the field of education in China make it possible to organize various types of work on the study of literature and culture with students: new courses of lectures, seminars, discussions. The article describes the elective creative courses organized at Harbin Polytechnic University for students of various specialties, the purpose of which is to form knowledge in the field of Russian literature and culture, teach the analysis of Russian literature, increase interest in studying the history of Russia, and the peculiarities of the Russian mentality. When developing course materials, the author proposes to rely on theoretical research in the field of basic concepts and keywords of Russian culture. The result of this work is the thematic structuring of the lessons of the course, the identification of the most significant topics and works for young people and for understanding Russian culture. The author comes to the conclusion that properly organized in accordance with the recommendations of researchers in the field of educational reforms, linguoculturology, sociology classes can greatly increase interest in Russian culture, literature and reading in general.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The authors argue that at present, a new scientific object, a
discourse with the key term artificial intelligence (AI), has formed in
the language of science. The state of the discourse is characterized as
extremely debatable. From a substantive point of view, the articles
have the object of AI technology, and the subject is the problems of
the emergence of AI systems in various branches of human activity.
The formation of AI discourse is at the initial stage, as evidenced
by the elements of linguocreativity in the texts of institutional discourse,
characterized by the lack of imagery, personalities and terminology.
The authors emphasize the novelty of this phenomenon
and the comprehensiveness of AI technologies with different words
and word combinations with temporal and spatial semantics. In the
discourse lexical means create the effect of speed, pressure, quantitative
and qualitative growth of new AI systems. The key words of
the new discourse are advantage, benefit, trust, challenges. The discourse
is characterized by metaphorical language and a large number
of personifications. From axiological positions the value of AI is
not questioned. From the point of view of determining the author’s
goal-setting, the purpose of the text in the discourse, new goals are
affirmed, namely the justification of the opportunities and limits of
the application of AI. The communicative strategy of the authors of
the articles is aimed at creating the effect of readers’ involvement,
synergy in achieving the goals. For this purpose, a variety of rhetorical
means and techniques are used (personal pronouns, personal
forms of verbs, rhetorical questions, oxymoron, phraseological expressions,
winged words, epithets, etc.). At this stage of the existence
of scientific discourse with the key word artificial intelligence
is found similar to the artistic discourse, as there is the creation of
a new scientific object, looking for approaches to its linguistic positioning,
forms of putting forward the scientific result.

dc.description.abstract

value: The article is devoted to the problem of landscape code of Russian culture lexicographic description in teaching advanced Chinese philology students Russian as a foreign language. At present, the culture codes linguistic description contributes to the explication of hidden cultural meanings, coded for foreigners studying the Russian language even at the high level. The “decoding” of hidden meanings requires purposeful work, without this work complete cultural information comprehension is impossible. The appeal to the culture code as a study subject is especially relevant for teaching philology students, since it is assumed that philologists should have the ability not only to perceive the different texts content, but also to penetrate into the Russian word imagery, into its value potential and understand the estimation justification. After analyzing the existing studies, one can conclude that the landscape culture code is one of the main codes, it has a significant impact on the national character, mentality, picture of the world and the linguistic picture of the world of the Russian linguocultural community. The landscape kinds names have not yet become the subject of a purposeful methodological description, and the corresponding lexical-semantic group has not been identified in ideological dictionaries. In this regard, applying the component analysis method we determined the lexical-semantic group “Names of landscape kinds” volume and structure and the educational group of the same names, including 8 subgroups. The article proposes an educational lexicographic description of the verbal landscape culture code represented by the lexical-semantic group. The dictionary entry of the educational dictionary “Verbal culture codes in the language vocabulary” has a multicomponent structure. The selected zones of the dictionary entry (interpretation, synonyms, associations, epithets, etc.) contribute to the Russian culture code “decoding”, which is especially relevant in methodology of teaching Russian as a foreign language to Chinese philology students.

dc.description.abstract

value: The article reviews geometrical objects as a factor forming the image system of modern Russian language, and explores the lexical units motivated by the concept of geometrical objects and phraseological units with geometrical components. This approach reveals multiplicity of geometrical objects participating in the process: there are three-dimensional (sphere, spatial angle, etc.), two-dimensional (circle), one-dimensional (line, etc.) and geometrical objects without dimension (point). When considering the language material the author uses the concept of the inner form of the word. Numerous examples are given demonstrating the process of geometric metaphorization. The analysis has shown that circle and spatial angle demonstrate high activity in forming lexical and phraseological units under consideration. Many of those geometrical images have an ancient origin. The article also touches on the issue of national characteristics of the perception of angles and circles. Some examples given by the author indicate the further development of language phenomena motivated by the concept of those geometrical objects in our time. Modern trends in the development of geometric imagery in the Russian language have been identified. The role of such geometric objects as a point, line, edge, etc. in the modern process of enriching the figurative structure of the Russian language is noted. The issues of lexical compatibility of the studied words are considered, the tendency of its change and expansion is traced. Modern trends of development of geometrical imagery in Russian language as a systematic process reflecting essential features of national view of the world are revealed.

dc.description.abstract

value: The article is devoted to the study of predicative prepositional-case forms of the noun, capable of expressing thoughts about the state, in varying degrees approaching the category of the state. The relevance of the research topic is due to the development of personal bisubstantial construction in modern Russian, in the syntactic conditions of which the idea of the state and/or evaluation is further developed. Prepositional-case forms like v forme, v trende, v zamote (in form, in trend, in fact) occupy an intermediate position between the noun and the category of state, and therefore the purpose of the study is to specify their status depending on the ratio of this state and evaluation in their semantic structure. The methodological basis of the research is the theory of transitivity developed by V. V. Babaytseva, as well as the transitivity scale as the main methodological tool, the hypothesis of syntactic constructions of bisubstantial sentences put forward by N. A. Gerasimenko, as well as the theses of K. Ya. Segal and M. S. Milovanova on the axiological semantics of forms the value-evaluative potential of which is realized in certain syntactic constructions. The research material is the prepositional case forms of the noun extracted from the National Corpus of the Russian language and social networks, functioning in a predicative position and denoting the state and/or assessment. The article proposes a variant of the analysis of specific word forms from the point of view of the degree of their distance from the class of nouns and their convergence with the category of state (degree of predication), which is the reason for the novelty of this work. The article concludes that the increase in the number of such lexemes is associated with the actualization of bisubstantial sentences, provoked by the tendency to emancipation of prepositional-case forms of the noun, on the one hand, and the course outlined in the consciousness of modern man on his personality, on himself as an object of cognition, on the other.

dc.description.abstract

value: The author explores, for the first time, Vladimir Vysotsky’s anti-fairy tales (“The Fairy Tale Song about Evil Spirits”, “There is no more Lukomorye”, “Verses of Evil Spirits”) and Robert Rozhdestvensky (“The Tale of the Blacksmith who Stole a Horse”, “The Monologue of the King of Animals”) in a comparative aspect. These texts have common foundations with folklore genres (myth, bylichka (folkloric account), byvalschina (true story), fairy tale) and literary fairy tale. The purpose of the article is to disclose the artistic features and the genesis of the anti- fairy talesby Vysotsky and Rozhdestvensky. It is revealed that the roots of folklore works go back into the mythological layers of Russian national culture associated with the development of artistic consciousness of people of prehistoric times. The myths that reflected a person’s idea of the world were of a religious nature and did not cause doubt as long as they were believed in. After the belief in animate gods disappeared, myths began to be perceived as fiction and become a bylichka (folkloric account), byvalschina (true story), fairy tale, etc. It is concluded that the anti-fairy tale is based on the attributes of a fairy-tale model, which are used by the authors of works to identify the imperfections of the real world, to ridicule it. One of the means of creating comic effects in the studied anti- fairy tales is hyperbole. In turn, hyperbolization reveals the ideological intent of the works, enhancing their aesthetic and authorial sound. Bearing the traditions of folklore genres (myth, bylichka (folkloric account), byvalschina (true story), fairy tales, etc.) and literary fairy tales, the anti-fairy tales by Vysotsky and Rozhdestvensky help the reader to create a contrast between the fabulous idea of the world and the imperfect world of reality.

dc.description.abstract

value: Nikolai Svechin’s retro-detective novels are known to be accurate in his reproduction of the spirit and way of life of the depicted historical period. Readers tend to believe in what the writer has written about the history. This article examines the depiction in the novel “Fatal Numbers” of the phenomenon of the so-called “Degaevism” in the history of the late Russian Empire. The text of the novel is compared with documentary materials about the provocative activities of S. P. Degaev and G. P. Sudeikin. The author of this article claims that Degaev’s monologue is a retelling text based on the text of L. A. Tikhomirov’s memoirs. There are abundant correspondences between the Degaev’s monologue with Tikhomirov’s memoirs. At the same time, it was revealed that the image of the provocateur has been simplified: Degaev’s is portrayed as a psychologically simple, self-serving villain. The image of Sudeikin is also different from his prototype. If Sudeikin in history was an egoist and had no ideological convictions, then Sudeikin the character is a supporter of liberal reforms. This discrepancy between the novel and history is explained by the fact that the protector of Sudeikin, Grand Duke Vladimir Alexan drovich, in Svechin’s view, was a liberal. Constructing an adventure plot, the writer does not change the outcomes of real events, but only speculates on some points that remained to be blank spots in history. On the one hand, Svechin is dedicated to guarantee the plausibility; on the other hand, the simplicity. The writer does not analyze in-depth the personality of figure, and introduces logic and consistency into history, destroying all the ambiguities.
