Intertextual Connections in the National Hymnody
Authors: Vorkachev S.G.
Published: March 2023

The article is devoted to the study of the specifics of the secondary texts creation by studying the phenomena of intertextuality and precedence on the material of the national hymnody. It is established that intertextuality and precedence in a certain interval of abstraction are almost completely synonymous, and translations marked by the integrity of similarity, coded texts, and plagiarism also fall into the number of secondary texts. The semantic content of the national anthem is presented in the form of linguistic and cultural meanings (concepts). Among such semantic formations, in addition to the basic concepts of the patriotic discourse of the motherland and freedom, there are cultural meanings associated with the previous genres of hymnody and lyric poetry and acting as precedent ones: God, which came from a religious hymn; the struggle that came from the battle songs; power is the basic concept of the monarchical anthem, the people is the basic concept of the republican anthem, love (for the motherland), which came from lyrical poetry. According to the coefficient of intertextual similarity, national anthems are divided into works of integral precedence, partial precedence and fragmentary precedence. Relationships of holistic precedence are observed in the case of interdiscursive and inter-genre transposition of a poetic work, when a lyric verse or civil lyrics turn into a national anthem; and also in the case of interlingual transposition – an adequate translation from one language to another. Relations of partial precedence take place in the case of modifications of the original text, the creation of its variants, its free translations, analogues based on it, paraphrasing, imitation and citation. Fragmentary precedence in the national hymnody mainly concerns the history and culture of the native country, present here in the form of names of nationally or universally known characters, significant events and dates, reproduction of precedent phrases and verbalization of patriotic concepts.
Music Semiotic Space in a Modern Literary Text (Based on the Materials of the Russian National Corpus)
Authors: Krylova M.N.
Published: March 2023

The study is devoted to the analysis of the implementation of the music semiotic space in a modern literary text and is carried out on the basis of the Russian National Corpus, which records the works of fiction of the last two decades. The objectives of the study were to identify language units that represent the music semiotic space in a literary text; define their main functions; establish the symbolism of music in contemporary works of art. It is noted that the music semiotic space is closely connected with the culture of the society, it is an integral and important part of it, the basis for understanding what is happening in the semiotics of music. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the appeal to the units of music semiotic space as components of a literary text, important for the authors to translate cultural meanings, emotions, aesthetics, psychological characteristics of the heroes of the works. It was revealed that when the units of the music semiotic space perform informational and emotional functions, their semiotic significance is minimal, while their main functions in semiotic terms are aesthetic, expressive (emotional), psychological. Moreover, the image of a musical phenomenon is usually combined with a description of that strong impression (up to transformation of personality, feelings, behavior), which it has on the hero of the book. In addition, it is noted that the components of the semiotic music space actualize their symbolic, aesthetic, emotional functions when used in comparisons and metaphors, including conceptual ones. For the authors of modern works of art, it is important to depict the world as sounding, filled with music, which forms a common cultural space for the author and readers, indicates the unity of their cultural codes.
The Semiotics of a Genre: Gothic Canon in the Ironic Mode
Authors: Kuznetsova A.V.
Published: March 2023

The article is devoted to the semiotics of the gothic story genre in its ironic transformation in Russian classic literature, in particular, in the compositional and axiological transformations found in “The Queen of Spades” by A. Pushkin. The relevance of the study is determined by the growing interest in understanding the nature of aesthetic semiosis, in the set of stable features of a certain genre, the conditions for their changes and demand in specific historical eras. The aim of the article is to analyze the semiotic parameters of the ironic mode that transforms the gothic tradition in A. Pushkin’s “The Queen of Spades”, but not affecting the value orientation of the protagonist. Research methods include historical, typological and comparative methods, as well as the method of philological interpretation and structural and semiotic analysis. The study identified semiotic components that mark not only the adaptation of gothic symbols and the whole genre of the gothic story in the first third of the 19th century to the tradition of Russian literature, but also the author’s intention of the inapplicability of a rational life strategy in the Russian national worldview. Transformations affect the traditional requirements for the space and time of the literary world, for the system of characters, for the motivation of their actions. At the same time, if the first two aspects appear in Pushkin in an ironic modus, largely successive to romantic irony, then the motivation for Hermann’s actions is resolved within the framework of the absolutization of the character’s value orientations: the hero’s actions are interpreted through stable values that characterize the national axiosphere. The author focuses not on the mysterious and extraordinary, but on the duality that permeates all levels of the literary world - from the motivation of the character’s actions to the explanation of the collapse of his hopes. Behind strong passions is the motivation of the actions and experiences of the hero, expressing the real nature of what is happening, which, nevertheless, does not prevent the realization of the motive of the case, which acquires the quality of an aesthetic sign in a literary text.
Precedent Names from Source Domain “Sport” in the British Media Discourse
Authors: Budaev E.V.
Published: March 2023

The purpose of the study is to identify the specifics of the functioning of precedent names from the source domain “Sport” in the UK media discourse. The material of the study is precedent names used over the past 20 years in the British media (BBC, The Daily Express, The Daily Mail, The Daily Post, The Daily Record, The Daily Star, The Daily Telegraph, The Guardian, The Independent, The Mirror, The Star, The Sun, The Times, etc.). The theoretical and methodological basis of the study is the cognitive and discursive paradigm. In accordance with the goal, this study uses a method of studying precedent names derived from a source domain. Based on the analysis of practical material, it was revealed that it is the outstanding athletes of Great Britain who become role models for the British, and the corresponding British onyms become a source of precedence. The repertoire of precedent names reflects the extra-linguistic features of sports competitions that are of an agonal nature. At the same time, British precedent names from the source domain “Sport” also show cultural specificity – the leading place is occupied by onyms related to football, which is natural, given that England is considered the birthplace of this sport. This sports game occupies such an important place in the picture of the world of the British that the names of famous football players are used as standards for designating talent not only in sports, but also in other activities, which is not typical for the names of athletes from other sports. Thus, the more developed and familiar to a native speaker a certain source domain, the higher the probability of using its content as a standard for conceptualizing the current reality.
Semiotics of Discourses’ Interaction in Mass Media
Authors: Shevchenko V.D.
Published: March 2023

The topicality of undertaken research is determined by the fact that presently in the field of media discourse there is an interaction between other discourses, which is implemented by means of signs, as a result of which a multifaceted representation of a certain event is achieved, which plays an important role in persuading the recipient. The purpose of the present paper is to study the semiotic basis of the interaction of various discourses within the media discourse. The study was conducted on the material of media texts – the texts of articles posted on the website of The Guardian newspaper. During the study, methods of discourse analysis, semiotic analysis, methods of observation and description were used. As a result of the study, it was revealed that the inclusion of signs of other discourses into the media discourse in order to represent a certain event leads to interaction between discourses, which manifests itself in the forms of interdiscursivity and polydiscursivity. The polydiscursivity of media discourse results in a multifaceted presentation and analysis of the situation described in the media text; the combination of signs of different discourses within the media discourse leads to the representation of a combined situation in it. The specificity of interdiscursivity lies in the fact that as a result of the use of signs of another discourse in the media discourse, a certain everyday situation becomes part of the media situation, a participant in which – a journalist – simultaneously performs the functions of a participant in the everyday situation; at the same time, the information channel, which is part of the media situation, is used to transmit specific everyday information, and not information about socio-political, economic and other events. The interaction between discourses in the field of media discourse indicates the interpenetration and mutual influence of various spheres of human life and the representation of this process in media discourse.
Symbolicity, Language, and Mediality
Authors:   Linnaeus University, Elleström Lars
Published: March 2023

This article demonstrates the broad applicability of the concept of symbol in human communication, beyond but including verbal language. The starting point is Charles Sanders Peirce’s understanding of symbolicity as signi-fication grounded on habits. The goal is to be able to conceptualize mediality in general and media interrelations, particularly in relation to symbolicity. Informed by a multimodal view on media, the author provides a systematic overview of symbolicity within the context of communication among human minds structured around two crossing parameters: symbols being limited or widespread among people and symbols not being part of or being part of systems – languages. Based on this overview, I clarify the role of culture in language notions and conceptualize language in relation to mediality. I also suggest a way of more precisely describing similarities and differences between languages and media types, without either conflating or totally separating the two concepts. Finally, I investigate how the dependence of language and media type conceptions on culture affects the idea of intermediality. Together, these investigations and conceptualizations promote a more comprehensive understanding of symbolicity in general and a deeper knowledge of the role of symbolicity in human communication, including verbal language, and intermedial relations involving all kinds of different media types.

Authors: Dymova A.V. , Zolotaiko A.I. , Kareva V.Yu.
Published: March 2023

The article presents a comparative study of verbal and non-verbal features of previews of Russian, British and American news and political videos as well as offers an analysis of the most widespread types of visual metaphors of this type of creolized text and their potential influence on the viewers. The current study is relevant due to the complex structure of video previews, which is including both verbal and non-verbal components. The aim of the current study was to, firstly, identify verbal and non-verbal peculiarities of news previews in the Russian and English segments of the internet, and, secondly, determine some similarities and differences. The methods used included comparative method of analysis, cognitive discourse analysis. The material of the study was the previews of videos of official and unofficial news video channels of YouTube and Yandex Zen from 2020 to 2022. Political affiliation was not taken into consideration. The authors note that the more official channels have a stricter form of visual representation of the material presented. As a result, some similarities were identified, such as colour choices, showing emotions, using gestures and including elements of popular culture. As for the differences, the authors note the typical composition choices (usage of opposing images in Russian and British videos, collages in British videos), the presence of tricks or clickbait (both verbal and non-verbal) when covering the information (most characteristic of Russian previews). In conclusion, the authors highlight that further study of video previews appears to be promising.
Ideological and Cultural Codes in Terms of Provocative Advertising Content Formation (as Exemplified by Benetton Advertising Texts)
Authors: Terskikh M.V. , Zaytseva O.A.
Published: March 2023

This article is devoted to determining the role of cultural and ideological codes in advertising communication and studying the peculiarities of their use in advertising Benetton brand products. The relevance of the study is determined, in particular, by the fact that the specifics of the perception of the advertising message, including the reduced attention of recipients to the advertising text, become the cause of provocative creative decisions, which are based on a deep analysis of consumer behavior, their habits and stereotypes. The authors note that in the professional activities of advertisers, the work with ideological and cultural codes is carried out in two ways: the advertising message is based on existing stereotypical mental attitudes or contradicts them. The material of Benetton brand advertising texts through semiotic analysis examines the company’s communication policy, built on a provocative appeal to cultural and ideological semiotic codes. With the help of trigger messages and visual images built on the use of idiologmes, religiogemes, mythologemes, culturemes, Benetton advertisers have created a semiotic basis for identifying the brand that is relevant to the general public. It is also noted that as a result, the brand has developed its own acutely social direction, which has become one of the main channels of communication with potential consumers of Benetton products. With the help of the social coloring of communications, non-standard solutions and the use of the laws of semiotics, the brand in question was able to achieve important economic and communication goals - to ensure differentiation against the background of competitors, to increase the loyalty of the target audience and its purchasing activity. The research material was more than 50 multi-code advertising messages - videos, as well as texts of printed and outdoor advertising. To achieve this goal, a descriptive and analytical method, semiotic and intertextual analysis were used.
Using a Foreign Language in a Polylinguism Situation: Semiotic Systems Conflict
Authors: Malekani Claude Wakenge
Published: March 2023

This work is an attempt to analyze factors of semiotic spaces asymmetry and dissymmetry for the host and the acquired linguacultures in the current polylinguism situation in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. A psycho- and sociolinguistic experiment, as well as the data obtained through a direct questionnaire carried out during the primary study of the mechanisms behind the linguistic barrier experienced by Congolese students from three universities (UNIKIN, UPC and Bel Campus) trying to use English, allows identifying not only the dominant use areas for the native and international languages in the DRC, yet also the respondents’ attitude to the need of knowing foreign languages. In order to create a representative sample, a survey was conducted among each group of students selected randomly, while the sample concerned only three schools (Humanities, Economics and Medicine) within the universities mentioned above. The sociolinguistic analysis conducted therein, served as the basis for detecting the key factors behind semiotic systems conflict in the parallel usage of the competing language systems pairs (local vs. English/French): 1) gender, 2) age, 3) status. The language-and-culture barrier in case of a parallel employment of the host and the invasive language can be eliminated while learning a foreign language relying on a familiar language system. This approach, though, is not accepted by the majority of the respondents (over 90% of males and about 85% of females), whereas preference was towards semiosis models of the international language system (French or English). The intersection of semiotic spaces and a free switch between the language systems serving them was to be observed in the groups aged 18-24 (about 40%) mainly at the University of Kinshasa, and only among a small number of the respondents falling within the age group of 25-35 (12%) at the two other universities. This fact points at the reliably objective factors promoting the creation of a convergent semiotic space in the capital-city university and within the region taken as a whole.
Religious Metaphor and Ways of its Verbalization in English-Language Theological Texts
Authors: Alimuradov O.A. , Miletova Ye.V. , Shibkova O.S.
Published: March 2023

The focus of this article is religious metaphor and linguistic ways of its realization in the space of theological discourse, broadly understood as a discourse about religion, represented by theological, journalistic and scientific texts. The English-language theological texts published in the theological journals “The American Journal of Biblical Theology” and “The Bible Magazine” have served as the research material. The starting methodological premise of the research is the idea that in the structure of metaphor there is a metaphorical core with main and metaphorical periphery additional metaphorical load. Based on the results of a practical analysis of factual material, the authors emphasize the weight of metaphor in these texts and highlight metaphorical models built on the principle of X is Y, i.e. based on the likening of two phenomena due to the predication of phenomenon X properties of phenomenon Y. The article presents a comparative analysis of two studies of religious metaphor carried out by the authors in 2015 and 2022, and also contains quantitative data representing the frequency of models of religious metaphor in the selection of texts and their partial verbalizers, acting as its core and periphery. The authors come to the conclusion that metaphor in religious discourse acts as an effective means of influencing the addressee, is characterized by dynamism and is conditioned by different extralinguistic factors. The dominance of the religious metaphor of positive evaluation in comparison with the negatively marked metaphor is proved, while the key part-of-speech verbalizers of both types of metaphors are, in the first case, nouns, verbs that make up the metaphorical core, and adjectives that represent the metaphorical periphery. In the second case, the metaphorical core is formed by nouns and adjectives, the metaphorical periphery is represented by verbs.

Fast Food as a Lifestyle of Urban Teenagers: A Study of Visitors to the Janji Jiwa Coffee Shop in the City of Padang
Authors: Azzara M. Abdi , Putra Eka Vidya , Patra Haldi
Published: March 2023

The second wave of the development of drinking coffee is characterized by consumers who attach importance to experience rather than flavour. One such place is Janji Jiwa, a franchise coffee shop that opened widely in Indonesia. The assumption in studying the nature of the fast food principle is related to limited free time. At the same time, visitors are dominated by urban youth groups who are not limited to free time. This paper seeks to examine the opinions of teenage visitors to the Janji Jiwa coffee shop about the principles of fast food restaurants that represent the lifestyle of urban people. This research was qualitative, and data were obtained through interviews, observations, and documentation. The study's result shows that for visitors, the principle of fast food is a symbol of modernity and relates to the characteristics of urban teenagers. The dimension of efficiency not only benefits the management of the coffee shop but also provides accessibility value for visitors. It can be viewed from production speed, self-service, Grab and Go, and cashless payments. Despite an attempt to strip off traditional methods, fast food service has become a form of cultural domination or oppression of individuals in society that reach into lifestyle areas. Thus, the principle of fast food is a form of improvement in the capitalist system.

Published: March 2023

The New Normal Era is the impact of the spread of Covid-19 which has brought the world of education to new habits with various challenges in the academic environment. The learning process becomes less effective due to weak rules and discipline. The purpose of this article is to conduct a more in-depth analysis of the learning process in the New Normal era. The research uses the conceptual paper method. The research was conducted by looking for data on scientific articles about learning in the New Normal era. The results showed that strong enforcement of rules against students can improve student discipline which has a positive effect on learning outcomes. Therefore, law as a social engineering tool has the potential as a solution to restore student identity as educated people who obey the rules and have a clear timeline and deadline. Clear rules in learning make students have discipline and commitment to themselves. This is very important for successful learning. The conclusions obtained from this study are that the success of learning in the new normal era is closely related to clear rules in learning.

American cockroach (Periplaneta americana) is one of the most common pests found in houses, apartments, and public facilities such as markets. As vector insects, cockroaches have symbiosis with microorganisms. Some of these microorganisms can live in cockroaches' cuticles and digestive tracts. Besides being able to pose a danger to human health, the microbes in cockroach bodies also have the potential to cause food damage. This study aimed to determine the diversity of microorganisms originating from the digestive tract of the American cockroach and their potential to cause food spoilage. The research was conducted in several stages: sampling cockroaches at a traditional market, isolating bacteria from the digestive tract of cockroaches, qualitatively testing amylolytic, proteolytic, and lipolytic potentials, and characterizing bacterial isolate by morphologically and biochemically character. The results showed that there were 26 isolates of bacteria isolated from the digestive tract of American cockroaches from the market, 62.96% of the isolates were found to have the ability to degrade protein, 37.04% of the isolates had the ability to degrade starch, and 40.74% of the total isolates can degrade fat. These isolates had various morphological and biochemical characteristics. Bacterial isolates derived from American cockroaches from traditional markets have the potential to degrade food.

In Indonesia, ASGM has increased. This results in an increased risk of mercury pollution in the environment (Minamata Initial Assessment Report, 2019).  The amalgamation process for ASGM in Sukabumi, it used mercury as basic material for amalgamation process. It can increase to negative impacts on the environment and humans. This study aims to describe the impact of mercury contamination on the environmental quality of the Cimandiri River around ASGM in Sukabumi District. This research was conducted using a laboratory test method with reference to PP No. 22 at 2021 and SNI 7387 at   2009. The results of the tests found that the highest mercury exposure occurred in aquatic biota (catfish, snakehead and eel) which exceeded the quality standard, although the media water and sediment does not exceed the quality standard. This indicates that the quality of the Cimandiri River is unsafe for biota due to mercury contamination in local biota around ASGM. Therefore, there is a need for further studies on the safety of local food products from the Cimandiri River.

RNA extraction is the critical initial stage in analyzing certain gene expressions, further analysis using Real Time PCR technology, and performing virus detection. However, the process of extracting RNA is often hampered by the risk of contamination, resulting in low concentrations of RNA and low purity of RNA. This is often an obstacle in extracting mosquito RNA especially detecting Dengue Virus (Den-V). Dengue virus (Den-V) can cause dangerous diseases in humans such as Dengue Fever (DHF) which is transmitted through the bites of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes. This study aims to find out the effective steps for extracting RNA from Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes. The method being compared is a commercial RNA extraction kit with modification (addition of β-mercaptoethanol) and without modification. The results showed that the best DNA concentration and purity were obtained in mosquito samples from modified process. The purity ratio of RNA extracted without modification was 1.971 (0.021 ± 0.800) while with modification it was 2.003 (0.011 ± 0.112). Aedes aegypti had a better average concentration of 7.146 µg/ml for unmodified RNA and 7.613 µg/ml for modified RNA. This research is expected to be a reference for further studies on viruses in Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus.

This research aimed to verify the effectiveness of using the model-based thinking strategy in developing first-grade high school students’ physical concepts and inquiry thinking skills. To achieve this goal, the research used the experimental approach with a quasi- experimental design for the experimental and control groups. The sample of the study consisted of 67 students in the first grade of high school, and it was divided into two groups: the experimental group 33 students (who studied using the model-based thinking strategy) and the control group 34 students (who studied conventionally). The study used the following tools: the physical concepts test and the inquiry thinking skills test. The results of the current research revealed that there are statistically significant differences between mean scores obtained by the experimental and control groups in the physical concepts test as a whole and its different levels of knowledge favoring the experimental group, and there are statistically significant differences between mean scores obtained by the experimental and control groups in the inquiry thinking test as a whole and its different skills favoring the experimental group, and there is a positive statistically significant relationship between the development of physical concepts and inquiry thinking skills among the students of the experimental group. Finally, the research presented some recommendations and proposals, including conducting more studies on model-based thinking strategy, inquiry thinking skills, and physical concepts in various disciplines and age stages.
