The Lutheran “Credo” in J. S. Bach’s Mass in B Minor
Authors: Marissen Michael
Published: September 2024

Abstract: In this article I argue that the “Credo” from Bach’s Mass in B Minor is marked by music whose counterpoint puts a decisive Lutheran spin on the work’s broadly Christian verbal text, and I also argue, from new liturgical and manuscript evidence, that this “Credo” was most probably meant to be performed as a discrete “work” on certain special occasions in the liturgies of the Lutheran churches in eighteenth-century Leipzig. Historical Lutheran theology (from well-known sources known to have been in Bach’s personal library or in the library of the Thomaschule in Leipzig for directed use by the faculty, including by Bach) is drawn on throughout the discussion, not with a view to weighing its religious truth claims but rather with a view to making capital out of its potential explanatory power for interpreting and understanding how and why Bach’s music is put together the way that it is. From this context, Bach’s setting of the Latin texts of the Ordinary of the Mass appears, against some wide-spread modern claims, to be neither “universal” nor “Roman Catholic.” Bach’s Mass in B Minor evidently reflects and projects Lutheran patterns of thought with which attentive Catholics would have seriously and markedly disagreed, and the work evidently never reflects and projects Catholic patterns of thought, or anything at all, with which Bach’s fellow orthodox Lutherans would have disagreed. Paradoxically, perhaps the more our reception of Bach is historically informed and the more we moderns—Lutherans and non-Lutherans, alike—receive his work as “other” (not as “ecumenical,” or “universal,” and the like), the more powerfully and meaningfully his art can actually speak to us.
Recovering the Cantatas of Johann Ludwig Krebs
Authors: Crist Stephen A.
Published: September 2024

Abstract: This article provides a concise overview of the current state of knowledge concerning the little-known cantatas of Johann Ludwig Krebs and an evaluation of these works in comparison with the much more familiar cantatas of his teacher, Johann Sebastian Bach. Although his cantatas are relatively few, Krebs occasionally composed vocal music of this type throughout his career, while he was serving as organist in Zwickau (1737–1744), Zeitz (1744–1756), and Altenburg (1756–1780). Beyond the towns where he worked, his cantatas were performed in many places throughout Central and North Germany. Performances are documented from 1740 until Krebs’s death in 1780, and posthumously during the next several decades, until at least 1810. Krebs was deeply immersed in the Bach cantatas, as a singer and later as prefect, from the time he arrived in Leipzig as a twelve-year-old (July 1726) until he left for Zwickau nearly eleven years later. Krebs cut his teeth on Bach’s music, and his cantatas largely follow patterns familiar from those of his teacher. The cantatas of Bach’s favorite student, Krebs, are of obvious historical interest. The music has many lovely features, even if one has to overlook the sometimes excessive diatonicism. Krebs can be said to have written very competent music in the style prevalent in Central Germany in the generation after his famous teacher. For this reason, even if Krebs is likely to remain permanently in the shadow of Bach, it seems clear that his vocal music is well worth recovering and knowing.
Historically Informed Patronage: Signifying Modern Royalty with New Early Music on Pine Island
Authors: Kjar David
Published: September 2024

Abstract: Every summer for seven years (2010–2016), I traveled with members of the Boston-area Early Music ensemble Cambridge Concentus to Pine Island (near Clayton, NY), where, by invitation of Phil Cooper, we stayed and rehearsed for an outdoor concert for the residents of the Thousand Islands region. Here, numerous islands dot the vast width of the St. Lawrence River, preserving a not-so-distant past with grand mansions erected by turn-of-the-twentieth-century industrial giants. The Thousand Islanders’ support for local revivalist endeavors, such as historical boating, is a testament to their commitment to preserving their history. Cooper, a Boston resident, private equity investor, and history buff, commissioned Graham Dixon to write new works in the baroque style for the region’s summer inhabitants as part of the festival. Over the years, Dixon composed fanfares, orchestral suites, English-style anthems, and concertos for the annual event and rearranged numerous eighteenth-century works to fit the available instrumentation and outdoor environments. The Early Music commissions frame Pine Island as a historically reimagined miniature monarchy, providing a unique opportunity to unpack historically informed patronage while offering possible creative experiential insight into the social dynamics of patronage in the distant past. In this auto-ethnographic study, my sociomusical readings of the Pine Island Early Music commissions show how their performative elements signify the mutually hierarchical relationships between Early Music performers and patrons. I further contextualize these readings with literature on non-musical patronage, revealing how historically informed patronage and performance practices stage present-day sociocultural discourses through a historically imaginative lens.
Prescriptive Remembrance of Ukrainian Canadian History in Marsha Forchuk Skrypuch’s Second World War Trilogies
Authors: Świetlicki Mateusz
Published: September 2024

Abstract: The differences between the Soviet and Ukrainian versions of history have been at the center of diasporic historiography, yet only recently have they begun appearing in Anglophone children’s literature. Most North American children’s and YA books set in Second World War Eastern Europe tend to show Ukraine as just an extension of Russia and pay no attention to the distinctiveness of Ukrainian culture and history. However, this approach has been challenged by Marsha Forchuk Skrypuch, a bestselling and award-winning Ukrainian Canadian author of historical fiction, who for more than twenty-five years has been introducing previously ignored topics to Canadian children’s literature. This article argues that what Skrypuch does in her Ukrainian-themed texts can be described as “encouraged commemoration” or “prescriptive remembrance” of Ukrainian history and collective memory. Reading Skrypuch’s two Second World War trilogies, the author of this essay studies how the novels address the tensions between individual and collective forgetting and recollection of the traumatic experiences of Ukrainian children who have fallen victim to both the Nazis and the Soviets.
A Long Essay on Shel Silverstein’s Short Plays
Authors: Thomas Joseph T.
Published: September 2024

Abstract: This essay encourages scholars to pay more attention to Shel Silverstein’s unfortunately neglected short plays. Arguing that Silverstein’s plays are a particularly queer subset of Silverstein’s oeuvre, both formally and thematically, one that offers a profound articulation of Silverstein’s bohemian critique of our dominant, heterosexist institutions and ideologies, particularly our bourgeois constructions of the family and the family’s concomitant ideology of futurity as embodied in the image of the child. Finally, the essay suggests that the ideological and aesthetic work of Silverstein’s plays hinges upon the audience’s familiarity with his popular persona, Uncle Shelby, the playful playground raconteur behind The Giving Tree and Where the Sidewalk Ends . Shel Silverstein’s short plays are a key part of his conceptual continuity. We ought to be more mindful of them.
"Nobody Was Ever Lonesome": The Lyric Vision of John Ashbery's "Litany"
Authors: DeJong Tim
Published: September 2024

Abstract: John Ashbery has long been recognized as one of our most important and most challenging poets. His work continues to beguile readers but has also been regularly criticized as difficult and solipsistic. This essay proposes approaching Ashbery's work through a lyric lens, reading his lyric mode as fundamentally rhetorical rather than mimetic. In doing so, we discover that poetic meaning itself is an abiding concern in Ashbery's work—specifically, the nature and value of the process through which poems come to mean in the mind of the reader. To show how situating Ashbery's work in this way opens up new reading possibilities, the main part of this essay analyzes his underdiscussed 1979 long poem "Litany," which functions as an extended ars poetica, a poem that is primarily about poetic meaning, and one that, while it begins searchingly and confusingly, ends with a stirring defense of the value of lyric. The essay concludes by considering how the conception of lyric evidenced in "Litany" might offer a foothold into an ethic of lyric poetics founded on a radical openness to the distanced other—an openness in which the true appeal of Ashbery's poetry lies.
Assemblage, Sourcework, and Ritual in Theresa Hak Kyung Cha's Dictee
Authors: Lee-Lenfield Spencer
Published: September 2024

Abstract: This essay identifies a number of heretofore unknown source materials for Theresa Hak Kyung Cha's 1982 work Dictee and draws those sources together into a reading of Dictee through the lens of assemblage theory to develop a fuller picture of Cha's extremely eclectic intellectual life. Elucidating Cha's sources helps show how in Dictee she layers the ritual practices of a bewilderingly diverse range of eras and cultures into a composite text that becomes a novel ritual of her own devising.
Psychopathology AND Religious Experience? Toward a Both–And View
Authors: Scrutton Tasia
Published: September 2024

Abstract: Psychiatric literature about when instances of voice hearing should be regarded as religiously inflected psychopathology and when they should be regarded as religious experiences sometimes presupposes that a person’s experience can only be either psychopathological, or else a genuine religious experience. In this paper I will consider an alternative: the possibility of a both–and account. A both–and account might involve the idea that a religious experience causes psychopathology, or is psychopathology, or that people open to religious experiences may also be susceptible to psychopathology. After arguing that these are either problematic or under-evidenced, I will argue for another version of a both–and account: that genuine religious experience can arise out of situations involving psychopathology. I will also point to some of the clinical and pastoral implications of my view.
Outline for an Externalist Psychiatry (3): Social Etiology and the Tension Between Constraints and the Possibilities of Construction
Authors: Ongaro Giulio
Published: September 2024

Abstract: Any progress in shaping up an externalist psychiatry, so previous discussion suggested, must begin from questions about the ontology of social causation. So far, research and theory have adhered to a naturalistic approach to the social causes of illness, concentrating mostly on the ‘social determinants of mental health’ (inequality, discrimination, housing insecurity, etc.). The paper starts with an assessment of ‘social determinants’ through the lens of epidemiology and critical psychiatry. It illustrates existing practical and political approaches that fight these constraints and it highlights their therapeutic value. It argues, though, that a focus on social determinants is not sufficient for fully realizing externalism because a great portion of sociogenic illness remains causally indeterminate. Alongside political action, externalism requires a social etiology that is established by virtue of the meaning that it holds for patients, rather than by virtue of its capacity to identify objective social causes of illness. This entails abandoning naturalism about social causation and embracing constructivism. The paper shows that this methodological shift is less contradictory and more effective than it is commonly imagined. Drawing from further anthropological evidence, it concludes that only by lending support to projects that balance a focus on constraints with social construction will psychiatry be truly externalist. At stake is a prospect of effective treatment for sociogenic illness for the countless in struggle.
Utopía y distopía: entre la ficción y la realidad, desde el impacto de Schopenhauer en Zola
Authors: Juliao Vargas Carlos Germán
Published: September 2024

Este artículo, después de situar etimológica e históricamente los conceptos de utopía y distopía, realiza un breve vistazo a la doctrina pesimista de Schopenhauer, para luego mostrar cómo Émile Zola la articula y la despliega en una distopía, en ciertos pasajes de La alegría de vivir. Se concluye, a través de varias preguntas, cómo Zola ficciona, en la figura de su personaje Pauline, una pequeña isla de felicidad dentro de un enorme océano pesimista, inquietante y malévolo: la utopía y la distopía surgen entrelazadas en una ficción que, historiando y politizando la cuestión, muestra cómo lo filosófico aparece en la ficción novelesca cuando ha sido colocado allí a propósito.
La introducción del espíritu en la filosofía heideggeriana
Authors: Michelow Daniel
Published: September 2024

La pregunta central del presente artículo se centra en el grado y alcance de la transformación de la metódica heideggeriana en la medida en que la cuestión del ser debe abrirse a la posibilidad de lo político en la década de los 30. Esta reelaboración de ciertos aspectos prácticos de su pensamiento sucede para Heidegger en gran parte a través de un modo específico de tratamiento del concepto de espíritu que comienza a tomar forma en su famoso discurso del rectorado donde lo geistig aparece como una estructura fundamental del proyecto que se empieza a poner en marcha y que se consolida, precisamente, en el seminario Hegel, Sobre el Estado que da pie a este análisis. Se planteará a lo largo de este artículo que el espíritu, tajantemente rechazado en Ser y tiempo en vistas a su status temporal, se transforma en el desarrollo de la metapolítica heideggeriana en el nexo esencial entre Dasein y pueblo.

FEATURES OF THE NARRATIVE ORGANIZATION OF A. MATVEEVA’S NOVEL «EVERY HUNDRED YEARS: A NOVEL WITH A DIARY»
Authors:   South Ural State University, Chelyabinsk, Russian Federation, Semyan T. F. , Vybornova L. V. ,   South Ural State University, Chelyabinsk, Russian Federation
Published: September 2024

In this article, based on the material of the novel «Every Hundred Years: A Novel with a Diary» by the popular contemporary writer Anna Matveeva, the features of the narrative organization of the works are analyzed. The work of A. Matveeva has been repeatedly awarded with significant literary prizes, so the interest in her work from philological science is natural. A. Matveeva’s novels have a specific type of narrator; the narrator is a female character who obviously has autobiographical features. Determining the specificity of the narrator in A. Matveeva’s novels is of particular interest from the point of view of describing the features of the so-called female narrative. The heroines of A. Matveeva’s novels are city women with humanitarian professions and an artistic nature, which determines a special narrative focus in which personal destiny, immersed in social problems, is tightly fused with creative activity. The female narrative in the novels of A. Matveeva expresses a specific female model of perception of the surrounding reality, associated with the problems of female existence in everyday life and in society. The narrative diary model chosen in the novel «Every Hundred Years: A Novel with a Diary» sets a special speech intonation and makes it possible to reveal the deep and hidden thoughts of the heroines. Wedged into the narrative structure of Anna Matveeva’s novel is her personal narrative, connected with her creativity and professional interest.
KOREANS IN THE URAL IN THE 1920–1930s: MOBILITY, SOCIAL APPEARANCE, AND STRUCTURES
Authors:   South Ural State University, Chelyabinsk, Russian Federation, Avdashkin A. A.
Published: September 2024

This article is devoted to the migration of Koreans to the Urals in the 1920s and 1930s. It focuses on migration, socio-demographic appearance, and the social structures of Korean migrants. The study is based on archival documents, the censuses of 1926 and 1939, and books in memory of the victims of political repression in the regions of Chelyabinsk, Sverdlovsk, and Perm. The territorial framework was chosen as the overwhelming majority of Koreans in the Urals lived within these three regions that. The theoretical and methodological framework was the theory of mobility. Koreans moved to the Urals from the Far East to receive education and employment in large industrial and cultural centers. The military-political situation in the Russian-Chinese border area was heating up and the Koreans began to be perceived by the authorities as an undesirable social element. There was a shortage of fertile land and ideas about the gradual resettlement of Koreans were floated. These all served as push factors for citizens of Korean nationality and contributed to their move to the interior of the country, including the Urals. The deportation of Koreans and repression against them led to the fact that Koreans actually “dissolved” into the local population for a long time, and they became known only after several decades.

The article analyzes a set of documents of the United State Archive of the Chelyabinsk region (OGACHO) on the problem of the organization of women’s daily work during the Great Patriotic War. Understanding the need for proper organization of labor at industrial enterprises of our time requires studying the historical experience of solving the problems of industrial everyday life of the female population during the Great Patriotic War of 1941–1945. Despite the introduction into scientific circulation of a significant volume of archival documents reflecting the daily production of wartime, a whole layer of archival documents of OGACHO remains outside the field of research, the analysis of which will make it possible to fill in the gaps in the research of regional history of the period 1941–1945. The study was carried out on the basis of an institutional methodological approach using archival heuristics, historical-critical method. The documents identified in OGACHO relate to documents of official origin and consist of materials from regional and city party committees, political departments of various departments. This office documentation allows you to analyze the official level of perception of everyday problems.As a result of the research, the author came to the conclusion that the identified documents have a high degree of objectivity and allow to fully analyze the most important issues of the daily working life of the female population of the Chelyabinsk region during the Great Patriotic War. The revealed documents demonstrate that industrial activity has become the main way of survival in crisis conditions. This process was not natural, gradual, since it was the war that provoked rapid female emancipation
A BRANCH OF THE NEVYANSKY CHEST CRAFT (KUNGUR CHEST PRODUCTION OF THE MID 19th TO EARLY 20th CENTURY)
Authors:   State Russian Museum, St. Petersburg, Russian Federation, Pudov G. A.
Published: September 2024

The Urals has long been one of the centers of Russian chest making. The literature usually talks about the masters of Nevyansk and Nizhny Tagil, although chests and caskets were not only made in these villages. This paper is devoted to the chest craft that existed in the villages of the Kungur district and which originated under the influence of factory artisans – a topic which has attracted little attention of researchers. Its relevance is increasing given today’s interest in the history of regional centers of folk art. This article offers a general description of the chest craft of Kungur district and determines its significance in the history of Russian chest production. Information is provided on the organization of production, the number of manufactured chests, and the participation of craftsmen in exhibitions. The artistic and technical features of the products are analyzed. Complex and comparative research methods were used in studying the history of the Kungur chest craft. It is concluded that the Troelzhanskaya volost of Kungursky Uyezd in the second half of the 19th to early 20th century was a regionally significant center of the chest production.
SUBJECTIVE STRUCTURE OF POETRY OF YOUNG SOUTH URAL AUTHORS
Authors:   South Ural State University, Chelyabinsk, Russian Federation, Smyshlyaev E. A. , Ibraeva V. I. ,   South Ural State University, Chelyabinsk, Russian Federation
Published: September 2024

This article examines the features of subject organization in the poetry of young South Ural authors (R. Agliullina, E. Kolyachenko, A. Manichenko, R. Yapishina). This generation of poets entered literature during a period of active development of new information and communication technologies. The digital turn has led to a rapid increase in texts published on the Internet, as well as to the ability of young authors to rely on a wider range of literary texts than previous generations, which manifested itself in the polystylistic and polyparadigmatic nature of poetic language. The category of subjectivity in the poetry of young authors manifests itself variably. This can be desubjectivization, that is, various forms of indirect utterance, masking and polyphony of the lyrical “I”. Often the subject in the poetry of young authors is transgressive, a translator of the painful experience of interacting with the world, the experience of overcoming trauma. Important for understanding the subjective structure of the work of young poets is the term “transsubjectivity”, associated with the phenomenon of the “new epic” in modern Russian literature. For young South Ural authors, it becomes important to broadcast stories of “other” voices, stories not about themselves, but about other people, reflection of other people’s feelings, other people’s experience. Transsubjectivity is often a way of self-identification in modern poetry, an attempt to consider individual experience through the prism of someone else, a look at oneself from the outside.
THE ACTIVITY OF THE URBAN ORTHODOX PARISH OF THE MINING URALS IN THE FIRST DECADE OF SOVIET POWER IN MODERN HISTORICAL RESEARCH
Authors:   Chelyabinsk State Institute of Culture and Arts, Chelyabinsk, Russian Federation, Sergeev S. A.
Published: September 2024

This article provides an overview and analysis of the historiography of the activities of the urban Orthodox parish of the mining Urals during the Great Russian Revolution, the Russian Civil War, and the formation of Soviet power at the beginning of the 20th century. The main focus is on research published since the 1990s. The peculiarities of the approaches to the study of parish activities in the organization of the church, closely related to a specific territory, and its place and role in society and the state are revealed. Despite the vastness of the territory of the mining Urals, the main emphasis is placed on studying the historiography of the activities of Orthodox parishes of large district centers which had received urban status by the beginning of the period under study. The article emphasizes that despite the growing interest in the history of the Russian Orthodox Church, modern research has been insufficiently comprehensive on the role of the Orthodox parish as a territorial structural unit of the church in the lifeof the cities of the mining Urals. The versatility of parish life and the integrity of the historical picture of the religious life of the mining Urals continue to be understudied.

Published: September 2024

This article explores the complex relationship between the art world and artificial intelligence (AI), which in a short time has managed to firmly establish relations with many institutions, even such conservative ones as the museum business and the art market. This article looks into some of the most notable examples of works created using neural networks, and the ways in which the artist interacts with these algorithms. Besides the expanding creative boundaries, the roles of AI in the preservation, restoration, and authentication of cultural heritage are considered.Examples of the creative synergy between AI and robotics are also presented. In addition, the article, while highlighting the contribution of technology to creative processes, raises questions about the extent of human artificial intelligence and determining the balance between human and machine contributions to creativity. The impact of AI on the world of professional art requires careful consideration and constant dialogue, which will help in building strong, mutually beneficial, relationships.
THE SUBJECTIVE STRUCTURE OF ROBERT ROZHDESTVENSKY’S POEM “MARC CHAGALL”
Authors:   Samara State University of Social Sciences and Education, Samara, Russian Federation, Abramovskih E. V.
Published: September 2024

This article builds the subjective structure of Robert Rozhdestvensky’s poem “Marc Chagall”. The poem, related to role-playing lyrics, is organized as a dialogue between the lyrical “I” (with an active directly evaluative point of view) and the hero of the role-playing lyric (the artist). The lyrical “I” coincides in value with the hero-artist. At the climax of the poem, subjective neosyncretism is observed, the inseparability of the point of view of the hero and the subject. The position of the listener is that of internal involvement in collective knowledge; the addressee enters their own circle. The hero stores and transmits this knowledge. The lyrical subject penetrates the mental world of the hometown of the artist Marc Chagall – Vitebsk. In the author’s textual strategy, the dialogue of the characters becomes a bifurcation point for the implementation of a descriptive statement (ekphrasis) and a narrative one (diegesis). Ekphrasis reveals the topography of Vitebsk (streets: Smolenskaya, Zamkovaya, Vitba River, the Fire Tower). These images are visualized on the Chagall’s canvases. The diegetic space is the mental space of event experience, the space of memory (the world of childhood, youth, national culture). The reconstruction of the world of Vitebsk is built as a stylization of archaic narrative practices – epic tales. This expresses a precedent picture of the world (the cycle of life – death – life). At the end of the poem, the lyrical subject attains a self-awareness through familiarization with the cultural and value paradigm of the hero.

Published: September 2024

This article analyses the media of the Kazakhstan diaspora. It identifies the status of the media of ethnic groups and their content in the post-Soviet space. The diasporas of Kazakhstan are presented in the article in the institutional format of the diaspora’s media activity in the country and in the narratives used in these sources. The specifics of covering diaspora issues in the Kazakh media itself are examined separately. The empirical material consists of ethnic media operating at a given time and modern Kazakh media resources. The article reveals that the thematic lists and narratives from the Kazakh media are consonant with the national media: a simplified version of historical data, a list of ethnographic features and a traditional narrative about the brotherhood of peoples. The main results of the study are determined by the medialogical approach and correlate with the ethnological approach. Particular attention is paid to the diversified use of traditional and new forms of media to express the interests of national diasporas and their narratives.

This article analyzes the influence of photographs from polycode environmental media texts on the youth audience with the use of eye-tracking. The study is supported by 102 photographs from environmental media texts in online publications and online city communities of the Chelyabinsk and Sverdlovsk regions. The content analysis of the photos reveals the most frequently repeated visual images: emissions / smog / haze; a general panoramic view of the city; industrial enterprises and their emissions; the pollution of forests, parks, and bodies of water; landfills; the negative impact on wildlife; and anthropogenic accidents. The analysis of the influence of the photos on the youth audience (100 people, 18–22 years old) using eye-tracking established the degree of respondents’ attention to the images based on the indicators of time until the first fixation on the area of interest (ttf, ms.), total time of viewing the area of interest (fix time, ms.), and the total number of fixations on the area of interest (all fix, units). The results showed that most attention is paid to images of landfills and the negative impact on flora and fauna. Special attention is paid to images of people and animals. The least attention is paid to stock images that are not related to the content of the news text.

This article discusses the mentalities of different categories of women associated with the school environment in the Ural province. It has been established that during the freest first fifteen years of Soviet power (in 1917–1932) at its first peacetime stage after the end of the Civil War (1921–1927), along with the new schools being created, the previous types of schools continued to function (Old Believer, Cossack, Tolstoyan, Muslim, Mennonite, etc.), in which the old educational process continued. Several groups were identified among teachers, parents, and schoolchildren, whose representatives defended their interests in the face of the tendency towards the universalization of education, the inclusion of social work in teachers’ work and school life, which they considered either as a means of carrying out fundamentally unacceptable ideas, or as an unnecessary encumbrance. At the second stage (1928–1932), statist tendencies in education intensified and teachers were increasingly required to actively participate in agitation, propaganda, and other public work. Protest sentiments and actions against the intervention of the proletarian state were not frequent, however they did occur, representing a non-Soviet discourse of socially significant behavior.

Authors:   Russian State Vocational Pedagogical University (Branch), Nizhny Tagil, Russian Federation, Kirillov V. M.
Published: September 2024

The study of mass sentiment is relevant to understand the mentality of different social strata in the post-revolutionary period. The sentiments of the population of the Ural region during the NEP period has not received a comprehensive historiographical investigation to date. Recently published sources from the 1920s allows us to obtain new results in its study. This paper studies the political and socio-economic sentiments of workers, peasants, Red Army soldiers, civil servants, intellectuals, clergymen, students, and representatives of anti-Soviet parties and groups of the Urals in the period 1922–1928. The source of the study is OGPU information materials published from 2001 to 2017. The interdisciplinary concept of a new social history is the theoretical basis of the work. Due to the formalization of the source materials, content analysis was applied. The results are a quantitative and qualitative description of the mass sentiments of eight social groups. Of the 1,554 utterances were identified, 199 were positive, 1,327 were negative, and 28 were neutral. Changes in sentiment over the years is shown, the predominance of socioeconomic moods (859 units) over political ones (404) is established.

This paper examines the historiography of the 1932–1933 famine and assesses the natural movement of the population in the Southern Urals (Bashkortostan Republic, and Chelyabinsk, Kurgan and Orenburg Regions). It has been ascertained that the underestimation of the number of residents was relatively low. The analysis of the vital statistics of the population of the Urals has been examined at the level of the administrative district and the dynamics of birth rate, mortality, and natural population increase at the peak of the famine of 1933 is considered. Opinions about the demographic catastrophe in the countryside of the Southern Urals, and the intentional homicide of the rural population by famine are not confirmed by demographic statistics. There was a decrease in natural population growth in the Southern Ural rural population but without a demographic crisis, and the increase in mortality in the overwhelming majority of districts was compensated for by a high birth rate. The sites of natural population losses were mainly in and around large industrial centers. The demographic catastrophe was in the cities of the Urals (natural population losses 26,100 people or 2% of the urban population). The dynamics of mortality in the Urals is not always explained by hunger, and in many instances the increase in mortality of the population was caused by epidemic infections imported by migrant workers and deportees. The assessment of losses from the famine of 1932–1933 in the Southern Urals is complicated by the lack of demographic series in the Chelyabinsk, Kurgan and Orenburg Regions before 1934.

Published: September 2024

This article analyzes the ecological history of Russia as an independent direction of national historical science at the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries. The close relationship between the development of domestic and foreign environmental history is noted. Recent foreign research devoted to the environmental history of Russia identifies several important features which had a significant impact on Russian environmental history. The main methodological, source-based, and historiographical issues faced by researchers are identified; one of the most important is the localization of scientific schools researching the ecological history of Russia. The most promising areas for further research are identified, taking into account the achievements of Russian historical science and international experience. Among them are the ecology of industrial and post-industrial societies and the consequences of intensive development of natural resources. The need for a more cautious approach to interdisciplinary research, such as “environmental humanitie” and the importance of continuing to search for the most effective tools for studying environmental history are emphasized.

The paper highlights the personality of an outstanding artist and theater decorator at the turn of the 19–20th centuries K. Korovin and his prose. Korovin’s memoirs allow considering the difference between the prose of an artist and the prose of a non-artist. Korovin’s prose was characterized in introductory notes to reproduction albums and articles dealing with the painter’s art. The analysis focuses on the relationship and functions of figurativeness and narrative in the story Spring Evening. Bunin’s lyrical prose and a fragment from Prishvin’s lyrical-philosophical poem Phacelia serve as comparative material. The analysis of the story Spring Evening confirmed the idea that the main content of the artist’s prose is aesthetic reflection and self-reflection. However, for Korovin, the foreground is neither the object nor the subject of creativity, but the creative process itself. The descriptive (landscape) component is supplemented by the narrative plan; the author acts as a narrator. Korovin uses narrative stories to speak most clearly about the secret of nature hidden behind the visual-sensual side, and this secret is akin to the secret of the artistic gift. In case of Korovin’s art, painting and literature complement each other, since both are forms of art. Korovin is an artist in a broad sense, i.e., an artist who lives by creativity, and artistry is the essence of his talent.

This article examines the idyllic images and motifs in Valery Bryusov’s poetry, the appearance of which is due to the poet’s creative quest, and the era of the Silver Age itself, which revived mythological cultural models. The genres of the idyll and bucolic are almost never found in their pure form in Bryusov’s poetry, but various modifications of idyllic-pastoral themes and poetics are consonant in the creative searches of the poet, who revived mythological cultural models. The features of the idyllic genre are found in many of Bryusov’s poems in the image of a shepherd poet (“The Chaldean Shepherd” (1898) and “The Escape of the Shepherd” (1908)), the image of a statue (the goddess Diana in the poem “She hid her face in the thick grass...” (1894)), the description of paintings and the impressions they produced and in the use of elements characteristic of the poetics of idyll: ekphrasis (“Evening Pan” (1914)), the motif of the secret observer, and the elements of an idyllic landscape. An important milestone in the transformation of the idyllic genre in Bryusov’s work is the cycle “Elegies and Bucolics” (1907), harking back to the tradition of the poet Virgil. The leitmotivs of loneliness, destruction, and death permeating Bryusov’s poems lead to the appearance in his artistic world of the opposition between the ancient world (idyll) – the modern world (anti-idyll), which reflects the crisis attitude of the era. The idyllic tradition in the 20th century becomes a means of highlighting the hopelessness and tragedy of human existence in the new century.
STATE MEDIA CONTESTS AS A FORM OF PROMOTING PATRIOTIC VALUES
Authors:   Moscow State Linguistic University, Moscow, Russian Federation, Chumikov A. N.
Published: September 2024

This paper considers Russian state policy and the actions of the media in the formation and promotion of patriotic values. Media contests are highlighted as a key form of implementing such values. The contests are understood as the voluntary and mass involvement of journalists in the cause of patriotic education. The media in general, and media contests in particular, in federal programs of patriotic education adopted in 2001–2024 and the practice of holding contests by state, public, and commercial organizations are analyzed. The paper describes a consistently formed national model of such contests, which reached the peak of their popularity in 2020, including the federal and interregional media contests “Patriot of Russia”, “Glory of Russia”, “My Small Homeland”, “Challenge of the 21st Century”. Guidelines for the further development of the media as conduit of patriotic education were presented at the conference “The contribution of the media to the implementation of the state program of patriotic education of Russian citizens”. The conference adopted a “Memorandum on Patriotism”, which functions as an information standard – an ethical guide for the compilation and evaluation of media texts. Since 2020, patriotic policy, its media components, and media contests have largely moved from federal strategies to federal departmental programs. The number of federal-scale media contests has significantly decreased. This situation requires correction with a return to the experience and models of the previous period discussed in the article.

A desigualdade hídrica no Brasil dificulta o acesso à água potável, sobretudo na região do Nordeste, onde essa desigualdade é mais acentuada. Dessa forma, o acesso à água para o consumo humano, através de poços artesianos, tem sido uma alternativa para abastecer comunidades do interior do Brasil. O presente trabalho objetivou avaliar a potabilidade das águas distribuídas pelos poços artesianos dos povoados Pé do Veado, Roncador, Serra e Terra Dura, situados no município de Itabaiana, agreste de Sergipe, por meio de parâmetros físico-químicos (cloro residual livre, temperatura, potencial hidrogeniônico (pH), condutividade elétrica e salinidade) e microbiológicos (bactérias heterotróficas, coliformes termotolerantes e fecais - Escherichia coli). A determinação quantitativa de cloro residual livre ocorreu por meio do método colorimétrico N,N-dietil-p-fenilendiamina (DPD), analisada através da espectrofotometria de absorção molecular UV-Vis; as bactérias heterotróficas foram determinadas por meio do método semeadura por esgotamento; os coliformes termotolerantes e fecais (Escherichia coli) foram determinados por meio do método de membrana filtrante. A partir das análises realizadas, considerando os parâmetros de cloro residual livre e microbiológicos, evidenciou-se que todas as amostras de água dos poços artesianos analisados não estão de acordo com as Portarias GM/MS n° 888, de 4 de maio de 2021 e nº 2.914, de 12 de dezembro 2011 e com a Resolução Conama n° 357/2005 e Resolução Conama n° 396/2008, indicando a necessidade de vistoria, monitoramento e tratamento das águas analisadas, sendo esses resultados norteadores para implementação e/ou melhoria na gestão ambiental e de saúde pública.

Accumulating studies on teachers’ instructional immediacy consistently show a strong positive correlation with teaching effectiveness. To expand the research in a bilingual and cross-cultural context, the current study investigates the construction of instructional immediacy in a natural classroom setting by theoretically anchoring on translanguaging, which refers to the idea of promoting the integration of all linguistic and nonlinguistic resources to achieve effective pedagogy with multilingual speakers. We quantified the nonverbal facial expressions to compare the teacher’s endeavours in different language modes when constructing instructional immediacy, and we used Multimodal Conversation Analysis (MCA) to examine his endeavours. The results revealed language-specific facial expressions which are attributed to varied teaching purposes. We conclude that translanguaging can serve as an effective tool for fostering instructional immediacy in multilingual classrooms.
