Authors: Dolzhich Elena Аnatolievna , Dmitrichenkova Svetlana Vladimirovna
Published: November 2023

Texts are inherently intertextual: they incorporate elements of other texts for a specific purpose. Intertextuality considers the text as a fabric or a network, a terrain where texts that come from very different discourses intersect and are ordered. This article is dedicated to intertextuality and its markers that serves as the main mechanism for constructing academic texts, moreover, to develop scientific knowledge.

Forming a Modern Therapeutic Resource for Geriatric Dentistry
Authors: Trezubov V. N. , Rozov R. A. , Mishnev M. L. , Parshin Yu. V.
Published: November 2023

Background. The special status and position of older and oldest old in the therapeutic, diagnostic, and preventive activities of a dentist lead to a firm conviction of an urgent necessity and expediency of creating a new medical specialization — geriatric dentistry.

Aim. Based on many years of clinical experience and scientific research, including extensive use of high-tech oral prosthetics for older adults, to make the first attempt at creating an optimal therapeutic resource for a new medical specialization — geriatric dentistry.

Materials and methods. Examination and prosthetics were performed on 645 patients aged 60 to 85 years old, with various types of implantable prostheses in the period o 3 to 7 years after their implantation. In addition, 903 implantable prostheses and 3287 of their artificial supports (implants) were also examined.

Results. The mean age of patients who visited the orthopedic dentistry department for dental prosthetics was 64.72 ± 6.8 years old. As the main method of rehabilitation of older patients’ masticatory and speech apparatus, we have used implant-supported prosthesis with its digital transformation. Most of the patients underwent reasonably radical oral cavity preparation for prosthetics. The original state retention of the tissues of the implant bed ranged from 78.04 to 100%. At the same time, fixed structures of implantable prostheses were characterized by higher indicators. The preservation of the implants was from 96.8 to 100%, depending on the observation period.

Conclusion. The high values of implant and prosthesis retention rates, good condition of the peri-implant mucous membrane and bone in remote periods after prosthetics, as well as a high level of patient satisfaction and significantly higher achieved level of their quality of life, along with high medical and economic efficiency of the method, allow us to consider it a promising standard of geriatric dentistry. Thus, a modern therapeutic, or rather, rehabilitation, resource for effective pre-prosthetic preparation and implant prosthesis has been developed and justified, which is the optimal approach in geriatric dentistry.

Authors: Turusheva A. V. , Frolova E. V. , Trezubov V. N. , Rozov R. A. , Kabanov M. Yu.
Published: November 2023

Introduction. According to research, the condition of the oral cavity in older adults is one of the risk factors for the development of malnutrition; however, even with complete loss of teeth, malnutrition does not develop in all patients.

Objective. The aim of our study was to evaluate the prevalence of malnutrition in patients with tooth loss and the factors associated with a reduced risk of developing malnutrition in them.

Methods. Epidemiological study of the EVCALIPT random sample of individuals aged 65 years and older (n=396). Main study parameters: oral health assessment questionnaire, non-communicable chronic disease, nutritional assessment using the Mini Nutritional assessment, comprehensive geriatric assessment, blood count test.

Results. The prevalence of malnourishment does not depend on the number of remaining teeth and the use of dentures or implants (p>0.05). The main independent factors affecting the risk malnutrition in patients with oral frailty are complaints about difficulty with mastication [OR (95% CI) 2.100 (1.100–4.010)] and pronunciation of words [OR (95%CI) 2.203 (1.007–4.816)]. Maintaining high rates of grip strength [OR (95% CI) 0.314 (0.167–0.590)] and absence of depression [OR (95% CI) 0.408 (0.196–0.846)] are associated with a reduced risk of malnutrition in patients with oral frailty.

Conclusion. The fact of the absence of teeth or prostheses / implants does not lead to an increase in the risk of malnutrition in older adults. Complaints about mastication and words pronunciation difficulties are more significant contributors to the risk of malnutrition in this age group. High rates of grip strength and the absence of depression in patients with impaired chewing of food and pronunciation of words are associated with a diminished risk of malnutrition.

The Influence of Chronic Diseases on Motoric Cognitive Risk Syndrome Development
Authors: Turusheva A. V. , Frolova E. V.
Published: November 2023

Introduction. Motoric cognitive risk (MCR) syndrome is a syndrome characterized by cognitive complaints or mild cognitive impairment (MCI) identified during tests and accompanied by slow gait but without dementia or autonomy decline. The concept of MCR is relatively new, and its natural course has not been sufficiently studied to date.

Objective. To estimate the prevalence of MCR, factors contributing to the risk of its development and the impact on mortality.

Methods. A prospective cohort Crystal study, random sample of individuals aged 65 and older. The total follow-up period was 9 years. Evaluation covered: gait speed, the Mini-Mental State Examination, chronic disease, blood pressure, lab tests.

Results. To diagnose the motor cognitive risk syndrome, the value of the gait speed was used, corresponding to the 2nd and 3rd quartiles — from 0.75 to 0.4 m/s. MCR was diagnosed in 16.7%. Type 2 diabetes was associated with an increased incidence of MCR [OR (95% CI) 7.275 (1.520–34.829)]. With an increase in systolic blood pressure (SBP) for every 30 mm Hg. the probability of detecting motoric cognitive risk syndrome increases by 6 times [OR (95% CI) 5.796 (1.388–24.200)]. After adjusting for sex, age, presence of type 2 diabetes, and blood pressure level, the addition of each component of the motoric cognitive syndrome increases the risk of all-cause death over 9 years of follow-up by 35% [HR (95% CI) 1.348 (1.001–1.814)].

Conclusion. The main chronic diseases associated with the development of MCR were type 2 diabetes and arterial hypertension. MCR is associated with a higher risk of mortality in older age, even with a slight decrease in gait speed. Gait speed within the 2nd and 3rd quarter may be a component of motoric cognitive risk syndrome.

Discussion and Feasibility Study on the Introduction of Income Tax Credit for OTT Subscription Fees
Authors:   KOREAN SOCIETY OF TAX LAW, Kim Shineon
Published: November 2023

Since the income deduction system for the expense amount of credit cards and cash receipts was first introduced at 「Restriction of Special Taxation Act」 in Korea, the benefits have also been expanded for traditional market use, public transportation use, and cultural expenditure. In particular, the cultural expense income deduction included the purchase of books and newspapers, ticket payment for performance halls and museums, and the purchase of movie tickets from July this year. In addition, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism ordered research services to incorporate OTT monthly subscriptions into credit card deductions as cultural expenses, and the National Assembly proposed a partial revision to the 「Restriction of Special Taxation Act」 in July this year. This is because tax cuts on OTT subscription fees can help not only promote people's cultural life but also secure the competitiveness of the OTT industry.
Tax reductions should be able to take effective measures to achieve the policy objectives pursued by the government, along with a close review of the effects of each income class from the perspective of tax egalitarianism. However, the current credit card income deduction system aims to reveal the tax base of businesses rather than reduce the tax burden on the people, and there is a limit to continuously and stably operating the system due to the limitation of the sunset period under the 「Restriction of Special Taxation Act」.
Therefore, tax cuts for OTT subscriptions should be legislated in consideration of the improvement of the system to maintain the current cultural expense deduction in preparation for the reduction or abolition of credit card income deductions in the future. In the long run, it is necessary to consider revising the 「Income Tax Act」 etc, not the 「Restriction of Special Taxation Act」, to introduce tax benefits for cultural expenditures as special tax credits or to designate them as VAT exemptions. On the other hand, tax cuts for companies should also be designed to benefit from the revitalization of the cultural content industry. However, in order to prevent tax avoidance of overseas companies, it is necessary to incorporate it into a system that can manage the sales of OTT subscriptions of the operator, such as the current cultural expense income deduction system used by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.
A Study on the Adjustment of Funding Ratio for Basic Pension : Focusing on the adjustment of the tax burden ratio of national and local taxes
Authors:   KOREAN SOCIETY OF TAX LAW, Kim Su-Sung , Choi Kyoung-Jin , Suh Jung-Woo
Published: November 2023

Currently, the state and local governments share the financial resources required for basic pension payments. The state bears 40% to 90% of the resources necessary in consideration of the ratio of the elderly population and the financial status of local governments. Concerns have been raised that the quality of welfare services provided by local governments with poor economic conditions could decline overall as the financial burden of local governments increases due to the recent aging population. Accordingly, it is necessary to increase the proportion of the state burden required for basic pension payments from the current one. The ratio needs to be raised to a full amount of more than 80%. This refers to strengthening the responsibility for the state's basic pension payment and reducing local governments' financial burden with poor economic conditions.
This study proposed new ways to finance the existing basic pension, insisted on strengthening the state's financial burden proportion compared to the current one, and examined ways to reduce the burden on local governments with poor economic conditions. Raising the state burden ratio for basic pension payments is expected to have a positive effect. It can ease the burden on local finances for basic pension payments and promote the soundness of local finances.
The adjustment of the financial burden of the basic pension is positive in that it presents a new perspective on the financial resources of the basic pension and is significant in that it can reduce the burden on local governments as well as look at reasonable ways to become a more robust basic pension system by expanding the financial resources of the basic pension.
Serf Theater of the Demidovs ‘Sloboda Palace’ in German Quarter: Organization, Creativity and Decline of the Noble Home Theaters Tradition in Moscow at the Turn of 19th Century
Authors:   Institute of Russian History of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Belov Alexey V. ,   The Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation (Financial University)
Published: November 2023

Serf theaters played an important role in the development of the European theatrical tradition in Russia. For the most part they were nonprofessional and private. Both public and professional serf collectives were rather rare. The paper analyzed the history of the home serf theater, created by Russian nobles and industrialists N. A. and N. N. Demidov. It functioned in their Moscow house “Sloboda Palace”, located within the German Quarter — an elite suburb which contributed to the spread of theatrical culture here. The Demidov Theater was related to a small group of serf theaters that stood between small amateur theaters and large professional ones. Therefore, they were called “midsized” theater. However, they brought up future Russian actors and future Russian spectators in Russia, thanks to which theatrical art began to develop and enjoy great interest in the country. The paper on the basis of archival documents shows the life and structure of the Demidov Theater. Much attention is paid to the appearance and internal structure of the Demidov Theater building. The author highlights different forms of stage art that were available here. The study also dwells upon the musicians and singers who played a large role in the cultural life of the Demidov Palace and Theater, namely the family of the serf actor Mochalov, who belonged to Demidov and whose son came to be a great national Russian actor. The paper examines the causes and conditions of fading of the manor theater culture in Moscow, including the Demidov Manor Theater.
Archaisms and innovations in tradition of the Serbian-Bulgarian border: Negotinsky Region
Authors:   Institute of Slavic Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Plotnikova Anna A.
Published: November 2023

The paper analyzes archaic and borrowed elements of the tradition among the Serbs in the south of the region of Negotin, where they live in the neighboring villages with Vlach ones. Over the past two centuries, contacts between the Serbs and Vlachs (Romanians by origin) have been so intensive that this has affected even the most conservative part of ritual and magical practice: the funeral and memorial rites. Among the archaic elements of culture the paper focuses on spells and ritual-magical amulets the analysis of which showed that in the verbal part of the spells the common South Slavic basis is preserved, and associates with the pronouncing of the dialogue-ritual by two persons — performers of the rite (which N. I. Tolstoy studied in detail). Borrowed vocabulary from the Romanian folk tradition appears in the funeral rituals and folk medicine. Such terminological vocabulary includes the designation of a participant in a ritual dialogue who witnesses the sending of food and water to the dead martula, marturija; names like padura that refers to the Romanian folk beliefs of the forest spirits, etc. The materials analyzed in the study were collected by the author during the field survey in March 2023 of the southern part of the Negotinsky region (the villages of Brachevatc, Roglevo, Smedovatc, Rayatc) in the Timok River valley: both from oral conversations with informants and from local history publications, which in one way or another highlight the language, folk culture, folklore and history of the region.
‘The Wreck’ by V. Nabokov: Inside the Context
Authors:   Kaluga State University, Balashova Elena A.
Published: November 2023

The object of the study is V. Nabokov's poem “The Wreck” (1925), in which an artistic interpretation of the central fragment of the text is undertaken — the wreck of a train driven by angels. The subject matter that rarely came into the field of view of researchers determines the novelty of the paper. The work analyzes the interpretations of the poem translations made by A. Filimonov and A. Chizhov, that made it possible to observe the author's strategies in mastering the existential topic. All of them display different degrees of consistency with church tradition and poetic tradition, once again emphasizing Nabokov's worldview. The paper shows how biblical images and literary context may be combined in the most unexpected way within one poem since the 19th century. “The Wreck” sustains the tradition of Pushkin's “Prophet”, contributing to the creation of an intra-literary dialogue in which other accents are placed in accordance with Nabokov's worldview, determining the meaning of a thing, dehumanization of space, prophetic dream. In addition, the study argues that Nabokov's poem, based on the perception of the train by the Russian classics, lays the tradition of the theme of the train wreck in Russian poetry (Kochetkov, Rubtsov). Nabokov's “Wreck” aims to realize the author's poetics as fully as possible and to be a value measure of the confrontation of earthly and heavenly principles. The results obtained may be used in research and teaching activities connected to the study of the formation and development of poetry of the twentieth century.
Topos of Creativity in the Works of Paustovsky
Authors:   A.M. Gorky Institute of World Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Mikhalenko Natalia V.
Published: November 2023

The paper explores the semantics and poetics of the literary estate of the 19th century in the process of its transformation into a literary cottage or house of creativity in the texts of K. G. Paustovsky (the book “Golden Rose”, the play “Our Contemporary Pushkin”, fragments of the “Tale of Life”, letters from Pushkin and Tarusa near Moscow, Riga Jurmala). The study shows that the context of the classical “manor culture” (contact with nature, peace and reflection, communication in the writer's circle) is seen by Paustovsky as the most favorable environment for creative work, creating of works of art. One can see how in the letters and in the literary texts of the writer, the image of solitary creativity arises in a village house, a seaside cottage, often in the cold season, which is a symbol of the greatest concentration, interaction with nature and at the same time detachment from the ordinary circle of occupations and immersion into artistic space. The writer's communication, the exchange of ideas, stories about new ideas, which took place in the house of creativity or when living together in the country, seems to be some invariant of the literary estate salon.
Invisible Links of the ‘Estate Overtext’
Authors:   A.M. Gorky Institute of World Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Bogdanova Olga A.
Published: November 2023

The paper explores theoretical and methodological direction in the research of the literary estate and dacha of the 20–21 centuries and examines one of the issues of their scientific thesaurus — the ratio of the categories “estate text” and “estate overtext”. The definition of the “estate text”, introduced into scientific circulation by V. G. Shchukin in the 1990s, is considered by analogy with the “Petersburg text” by V. N. Toporov, which is based on the text-forming myth about Peter I and St. Petersburg. Despite of the V. G. Shchukin's statement about the obligatory presence of the elegiac-idyllic myth of the “noble nest” in the basis of the “estate text” of Russian literature, in the scientific literary practice of the turn of the 21th century, all works developing an estate theme, without exception, including those opposing the myth began to be interpreted as an “estate text”. Soon the concept of “estate overtext” was introduced, combining topics and mythopoetics into a single series of works about the estate of the 18–21 centuries. The actual synonymy of the terms “estate text” and “estate overtext” generated the question of the redundancy of the latter. However, the study suggests to preserve this term by filling it with semantics relevant to the new quality of the “estate” literature of the 20 and the beginning of the 21th century, referring either to a reformatted in new socio-cultural conditions, or to an absent estate. The categories of “estate habitus”, “estateness” and “crypto-estate mythology” become the tools for analyzing of the “estate overtext” in its new understanding.
Alexandre Pushkin`s Reserve and “Reserve” by Sergei Dovlatov: on peculiarities of the Country Estate Text and the Country Estate Myth
Authors:   A.M. Gorky Institute of World Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Dmitrieva Ekaterina E.
Published: November 2023

The theme of manors, their history and the mechanisms of generation of the manor text, has long been one of the prioritized areas of the humanities. At the same time, it is obvious that the history of estates and the history of texts generated by them are phenomena of different order. More often there are cases when the estate text, although fueled by the writer's own estate experience, cannot be revered as an imprint from reality (at least indirectly). The paper deals with a rarer incident: a text, literally generated by the estate, which accumulates two different eras with their inherent conflict mentality. An example of such a clash of epochs within the manor text in Western literature is the novel by M. Kundera “Slowness”, and in Russian literature — the novel by S. Dovlatov “Reserve”. The peculiarity of Dovlatov's text is that his character is visiting a museum, consecrated by the cult name of Pushkin, where both the estate and Pushkin have become the object of a constantly reproducible myth. Dovlatov`s destruction and parody of Soviet mythology, which in some way profaned the name of Pushkin, in turn generates an anti-myth, adopted by the new age. The hermeneutical history of the “Reserve” generates curiosity, clearly not provisioned by the author. Through the efforts of criticism, the nihilistic text is interpreted as a translator of the main themes, motifs and values of Russian literature. As a result, Dovlatov's anti-myth, which heralded the end of the country estate era, becomes in the further reception of the novel a cultural omen of Modern times. With his text dedicated to the reserve, in which all kinds of cliches and ideologems are harshly ridiculed, Dovlatov gave birth to new ideologems.
Lecture as a Means of Translating Cultural Capital and Reproducing of Intellectual Elite
Authors:   Finance University under the Government of the Russian Federation, Gubanov Nikolay N.
Published: November 2023

The present paper is to study the meaning and functions of classical (full-time, “face-to-face”) lectures in the modern educational process. The essence of the lecture is revealed in the light of the social concept of Randall Collins' creativity and his sociology of intellectual networks. The study`s approach allows for interpreting lecture as an archetypal version of intellectual interactive ritual that provides reliable transmission of cultural capital from one generation of intellectuals to another. During the interaction successful participants of the described process acquire a high emotional potential necessary for intellectual creativity, which is determined by personal contacts of intellectuals “face to face”, as well as their positions in the intellectual network. The results of the study enable the authors to state that the lecture has such characteristics that make it a unique and irreplaceable way to gain intellectual experience for both the lecturer and the audience, and as a consequence, acts as the basis for the reproduction of the intellectual elite. Therefore, an online lecture can only be an addition to a classical lecture, without which this reproduction would become impossible, and stagnation would occur in science. Of course, only a small part of students and postgraduates will become outstanding scientists, but they will shape the science. The above considerations are followed by a number of illustrative examples from the history of education and personal long-term pedagogical practice of the authors. The paper concludes with the answers to standard reproaches against classical lectures as a form of education. The research has not only theoretical, but also practical significance, orienting young teachers to master the art of lecturing.
‘Annihilating All That’s Made / Reducing to a Green Thought in a Green Shade’: Allusions from Metaphysical Poets in the English ‘Estate Text’ of the 20th – 21st Centuries (M. Gatty, J. H. Ewing, K. Grahame, F. H. Burnett et al.)
Authors:   A.M. Gorky Institute of World Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Veligorsky Georgy A.
Published: November 2023

The paper examines the influence of English metaphysical poets of the 16th – 17th centuries (A. Marvell, G. Vaughan, T. Traherne, J. Herbert) on the children’s “estate” novel of the Victorian era. The author conducts analysis for what purpose the children’s writers (M. Gatty, J. H. Ewing et al.) introduce the appropriate intertext into their novels and stories (to emphasize the unsteadiness of the world; to create “volatile” nostalgic images; depicting the estate as an earthly paradise, etc.). The study discusses the quotes they use (both as epigraphs and inclusions in the fabric of the narrative), as well as considers how these ideas were perceived by English “estate” authors of the 20th century (K. Grahame, F. H. Burnett, Ph. Pearce, et al.). The paper pays special attention to the novel “Under the Salisbury Spire” by E. Marshall, the first novel for children, where a poet, a representative of the “metaphysical school”, is introduced as one of the main characters. The research also touches upon the reception of metaphysical works in Russian literature of the middle of the 20th century, associated with the estate theme (works by A. A. Akhmatova, V. V. Nabokov, N. A. Zabolotsky, et al.).
Lesya Ukrainka’s Play “Woman Possessed” and its Critical Interpretations
Authors:   Fevzi Yakubov Crimean Pedagogical and Engineering University, Humeniuk Viktor I.
Published: November 2023

Outstanding Ukrainian writer of the early modernism epoch Lesya Ukrayinka (Larysa Petrivna Kosach, when married — Kvitka, 1871–1913) got a widespread acknowledgement first of all as a lyrical poetess, however it was her turn to the drama creation that determined her leading artistic searches and achievements. She experimented in the sphere of prosaic psychological plays (“Blue Rose”, “Farewell”), poetry plays, where the antique and romance traditions are actualized (“Iphigenia in Tauris”, “The Sculptor”) and finally came to the modernistic poetic drama. The play, which became the first dramatic masterpiece of the writer, according to many scientists, came to be the dramatic poem “Woman Possessed”. Here the Gospel images and motifs are brought to the circle of the up-to-date spiritual searches and unexpected interpretations. Artistically tackling the issue of love to humanity and love to the particular human, Lesya Ukrainka emphasizes its complication and versatility without any simple categorical conclusions. Although further creative searches of the authoress did include experiments, they basically followed the mould, determined by the “Woman Possessed”, within the system of poetic intellectual drama as a new-romantic example. The dominant style of the “Woman Possessed” and many other plays of authoress is the intellectual abundance. The interaction between ideological characters serves as the main mean of artistic intellectualism, unimaginable without the description of their complicity, without the deep psychologism. The ideology of the character (psychologically grounded temper’s dependence on the idea, its unity with the idea) relates to a mythological and symbolic interpretation of the empiric reality, its poetic transformation, connected with the unique imaginative spectacularity.
‘The same Alexey Tried...’: Historical Concept of the First Book of the Novel Peter the Great by A.N. Tolstoy in the Assessment of Soviet Criticism
Authors:   A.M. Gorky Institute of World Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Akimova Anna S.
Published: November 2023

The research bases on reviews of Soviet critics collected and systematized for the first time on the works of A.N. Tolstoy dedicated to the Peter’s I epoch such as the story Peter’s Day (1918) and the play On the Rack (1929). These works directly related to the idea of the novel Peter the Great. As shown in the periodical press reviews of the play, as well as of the performance, soon to be staged by the Moscow Art Theater 2 (1929), their perception determined the tone of the papers dedicated to the first book of the novel Peter the Great (1930). The study provides an overview of all six reviews written by Boris Valbe, Gerge Gorbachev, Cornelii Zelinsky, Nikolai Jesuitov et al., and outlines their main provisions and comments. The main drawback, according to critics, was the lack of a Marxist understanding of history in the novel reflected in the selection of historical sources and facts and in the image of the main character, Peter I. Assessing the chronicle order of the composition of the work differently everyone noted the colorful language, cheery humor and dialogues. The reviews of 1931 shaped the main approaches to the evaluation of the novel which will be developed in 1935 after the release of the second book through the concept of a lonely ruler, historical parallelism, i. e. solving the issues of modernity based on the Peter’s epoch, reflection in the novel of the role of “trading capital”. The study of the reception of the first book by A.N. Tolstoy will allows us determining its role and significance in the historical and cultural context as well as — more broadly — considering the main approaches to the evaluation of the historical novels and the representation of images of historical figures in Soviet culture.
Monuments of the Great Patriotic War in Azerbaijan: Conservation Issues and Artistic and Aesthetic Interpretation
Authors:   Institute of Architecture and Arts of the Azerbaijan National Academy of Sciences, Zeynalov Khazar A.
Published: November 2023

The paper addresses the topic of monuments and memorials of the Great Patriotic War located in Azerbaijan. The author notes that a large number of memorials dedicated to the memory of fallen compatriots — heroes of the Second World War are concentrated in the cities and towns of the republic. Most of these monuments were erected in the 70s of the past century, especially on the eve of the celebration of the 30th anniversary of the great victory over fascism. Today, like many years ago, these monuments are in good condition, as local authorities are taking care of them. Almost all of them were restored during the years of independence and acquired new artistic and aesthetic qualities. The research deals with memorial complexes, monuments and obelisks located in large cities and regions of Azerbaijan — in Ganja, Sumgait, Lankaran, in Gazakh, Barda, Oguz and other regions. Analyzing these monuments, the author comes to the conclusion that most of them are characterized by the originality of the creative concept, expressiveness and dynamics of the pictorial language, a successful combination of the artistic significance of the compositional solution with its ideological and moral content. Many of them are the best ac39hievements of the monumental fine arts of Azerbaijan to this day.
Soundtrack’s Genre Patterns of the Russian Retro-series about Soviet Pop Artists
Authors:   The State Institute for Art Studies, Zhurkova Daria A.
Published: November 2023

Among the retro-series about Soviet pop artists, the author identifies three types of soundtrack: 1) quotation (songs of the Soviet era in the sound closest to the original or direct inclusion of an authentic soundtrack); 2) modernized (a conscious and radical change in the sound of original songs through arrangement); 3) stylized (songs specially written for a specific series, presented as songs of the Soviet era). The main attention in the article is given to the soundtrack of citation and modernized types. Although the quote-type soundtrack strives to be indistinguishable from the original, it works powerfully and reinterprets the popular music of the Soviet era. On the one hand, the “radius” of Soviet popular music is greatly expanding from a chronological and geographical point of view and including foreign pop hits, thieves' songs, old romances. On the other hand, the creators of serials are pursuing a strict repertoire policy towards Soviet popular music. In particular, they almost completely exclude civil-patriotic songs both from the sound landscape of the soviet era and from the biographies of the artists. The character of a modernized type of soundtrack is highly dependent on the location and function it serves in the structure of the series. It turns out that in the intros to the series and in the dubbing of the love line of the main characters, the original songs undergo an insignificant change. A much more radical introduction into the original text occurs when songs become part of a genre off-screen soundtrack or are transformed for dramatic needs, growing into an independent musical number within the narrative.
Is Poster a Mirror of Time or Reflection of Stereotypes? Female Images on Soviet Posters of the Great Patriotic War
Authors:   Russian State University of Tourism and Service, Ermilova Daria Y.
Published: November 2023

The paper explores female images of posters of the Second World War. It was important to find out how the world of images corresponded to the challenges of the time and how adequately it reflected this time. This approach reveals that the constructed world is not identical to reality — it does not reflect all the roles that women performed, especially in the USSR. The image of the Motherland was the main thing on Soviet posters for the front and less often — the reward for Victory and victims. The posters for the rear were dominated by the image of a working woman. Unlike American and British posters with young “female friends”, Soviet posters depicted women more realistically – and there are almost no women in military uniforms on Soviet ones, although posters of the second half of the 1930s often depicted women of “male” professions (scientists, doctors, pilots, etc.). During the war, such images disappeared completely. There are no images of pilots, snipers, radio operators on Soviet posters, although they are reflected in other types of art. The main reason is seemingly the fact that military propaganda created a masculine image of a warrior-defender, while women were assigned to the traditional gender roles of mother, faithful friend, keeper of the hearth or a symbol of the Motherland. The experience of World War II propaganda, which focused on visual images, may be valuable for modernity, despite the specifics of communications in the digital world.

The paper presents a historical reconstruction of the final stage of the life of one of the main prototypes of the epic hero Dobrynya Nikitich. The study included problem-chronological and historical-analytical methods of scientific research. The authors conducted a historiographic analysis of the issue and identified the main sources used in writing the paper. Based on the texts of several Russian epics, Old Russian chronicles and graffiti found during the restoration of the Transfiguration Cathedral in Pereslavl-Zalessky in 2015, they indicated an obvious connection between the epic hero Dobrynya Nikitich and the Rostov boyar Dobrynya Dolgy. Particular attention is paid to the analysis of Dobrynya's personal participation in the tragic events of 1174. Based on a forensic medical examination of the remains of Andrei Bogolyubsky, as well as a number of written sources, the authors of the research came to the conclusion that Dobrynya Nikitich served in the squad of Prince Andrei Bogolyubsky, was involved in a conspiracy against him, but did not directly participate in his murder. After the tragic events of 1174, he fled to Rostov, where he took part in the military council before the battle of Lipetsk and died during the battle that followed.

Objectives. We present a case report of a patient with malaise, abdominal pain, and vomiting, later underwent bone marrow biopsy and found to have CNL with no genetic mutation. Case presentation. A 40 years old male came into hospital with malaise, abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. Furthermore there were bilateral lymphadenopathy in the neck, hepatomegaly and moderate splenomegaly in abdominal examination. Anemia, leukocytosis and increase of Lactat Dehydrogenase (LDH) were found. Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy was performed and showed predominant neutrophil and the bone marrow biopsy showed hypercellular bone marrow with increased myeloid-neutrophil, increased myeloid erythroid ratio. Outcome. After further investigation this patient was diagnosed with chronic neutrophilic leukemia based on bone marrow aspiration and biopsy result.
CHINA’S HIGH-QUALITY INNOVATION DEVELOPMENT FROM AN INSTITUTIONAL PERSPECTIVE: REGIONAL DIFFERENCES AND CONVERGENCE
Authors: Cheng Ken , Chen Hongwen , Zhang Fan , Zhang Meiyang
Published: November 2023

High-quality innovation is an inevitable requirement for high-quality economic development, and an accurate grasp of the regional distribution characteristics of the level of high-quality innovation development (HQID) can better understand and simulate high-quality innovation. This paper constructs a dataset of high-value inventions based on the Chinese patent database using textual analysis methods and the criteria for High-Quality Inventions proposed by the State Intellectual Property Office, and explores inter-provincial variability and convergence by using the Theil index, convergence, and convergence. This paper finds that High-Quality Inventions are significantly and positively correlated with various indicators measuring the quality and value of patents. In general, the overall level of HQID is on an upward trend with clear differences among provinces, which shows a regional unbalanced but overall rapid development. From the regional differences of HQID, the regional differences of HQID have been narrowed, mainly within the region. In terms of the convergence of HQID, convergence, absolute convergence, conditional convergence, and club convergence exist nationally and within each region, which indicates that the gap between the national and regional levels of HQID has been narrowing over time. HQID has a positive promotion effect on the relationship between HQID and economic growth, economic growth rate, and total factor productivity. High-quality innovation can improve the quality of input factors, cultivate new dynamic energy for economic development, and then promote high-quality economic development. In the context of the shift of IP work from pursuing quantity to improving quality, the scientific understanding of high-quality innovation, the development status, and the differences of regional innovation high-quality development is of great significance for improving innovation quality and efficiency, and effectively supporting high-quality economic development.
Scaling K2. VII. Evidence For a High Occurrence Rate of Hot Sub-Neptunes at Intermediate Ages

The NASA K2 mission obtained high-precision time-series photometry for four young clusters, including the near-twin 600–800 Myr old Praesepe and Hyades clusters. Hot sub-Neptunes are highly prone to mass-loss mechanisms, given their proximity to the host star and the weakly bound gaseous envelopes, and analyzing this population at young ages can provide strong constraints on planetary evolution models. Using our automated transit detection pipeline, we recover 15 planet candidates across the two clusters, including 10 previously confirmed planets. We find a hot sub-Neptune occurrence rate of 79%–107% for GKM stars in the Praesepe cluster. This is 2.5–3.5σ higher than the occurrence rate of

% for the same planets orbiting the ∼3–9 Gyr old GKM field stars observed by K2, even after accounting for the slightly supersolar metallicity ([Fe/H] ∼ 0.2 dex) of the Praesepe cluster. We examine the effect of adding ∼100 targets from the Hyades cluster and extending the planet parameter space under examination, and we find similarly high occurrence rates in both cases. The high occurrence rate of young, hot sub-Neptunes could indicate either that these planets are undergoing atmospheric evolution as they age, or that planetary systems that formed when the Galaxy was much younger are substantially different than from today. Under the assumption of the atmospheric mass-loss scenario, a significantly higher occurrence rate of these planets at the intermediate ages of Praesepe and Hyades appears more consistent with the core-powered mass-loss scenario for the origin of the planet radius valley, compared to the photoevaporation scenario.

The Galactic bulge is critical to our understanding of the Milky Way. However, due to the lack of reliable stellar distances, the structure and kinematics of the bulge/bar beyond the Galactic center have remained largely unexplored. Here, we present a method to measure distances of luminous red giants using a period–amplitude–luminosity relation anchored to the Large Magellanic Cloud, with random uncertainties of 10%–15% and systematic errors below 1%–2%. We apply this method to data from the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment to measure distances to 190,302 stars in the Galactic bulge and beyond out to 20 kpc. Using this sample, we measure a distance to the Galactic center of R
0 = 8108 ± 106stat ± 93sys pc, consistent with direct measurements of stars orbiting Sgr A*. We cross-match our distance catalog with Gaia DR3 and use the subset of 39,566 overlapping stars to provide the first constraints on the Milky Way’s velocity field (V

) beyond the Galactic center. We show that the V

R
quadrupole from the bar’s near side is reflected with respect to the Galactic center, indicating that the bar is bisymmetric and aligned with the inner disk. We also find that the vertical height V

Z
map has no major structure in the region of the Galactic bulge, which is inconsistent with a current episode of bar buckling. Finally, we demonstrate with N-body simulations that distance uncertainty plays a factor in the alignment of the major and kinematic axes of the bar, necessitating caution when interpreting results for distant stars.
