City of Memory

Since he had left Naples in the winter of 1946–1947 Rosi had never felt tempted to return but somehow always looked for creative projects which would lead him back. In 1992, he films Diario napoletano (Neapolitan Diary), an intimate narrative documenting a personal and collective journey. In 2003, Eduardo De Filippo’s art, deeply rooted in human suffering rather than the virtuosity of the stagecraft, persuaded Rosi to direct Napoli milionaria! at the San Carlo Theatre for the Compagnia di Teatro Luca De Filippo. Rosi’s vision of historical continuity between cinema and the theater is embodied in a city where poverty favors corruption, crime, and an insatiable longing for power. For Rosi, Eduardo's play is an appeal for action aimed at recapturing the fundamental values of life: love, honesty, solidarity. Three years later he staged Le voci di dentro and in 2008 Filumena Marturano.

Предмет данной статьи - фрагмент русской языковой картины мира, отражающий те особенности национального менталитета россиян, которые находятся в тесной связи с особенностями России как уникальной цивилизации, многонационального и многоконфессионального государства. Авторы, основываясь на методах филологической герменевтики, констатируют историческую преемственность ценностей, с одной стороны, известных с XIX века под названиями православие, самодержавие, на родность , с другой стороны, фундаментальных ценностей современной российской государственности: память предков, суверенитет, патрио тизм и др. The subject of this article is a fragment of the Russian linguistic picture of the world, reflecting the peculiarities of the national mentality of Russians, which are closely related to the features of Russia as a unique civilization, a multinational and multi-religious state. The authors, basing their research on the methods of philological hermeneutics, prove that there is historical continuity of values, on the one hand, known since the XIX century under the nominations of «orthodoxy», «autocracy», «nationality», and, on the other hand, the fundamental values of modern Russian statehood: «the memory of ancestors», «sovereignty», «patriotism», etc.

Homology—a similar trait shared by different species and derived from common ancestry, such as a seal's fin and a bird's wing—is one of the most fundamental yet challenging concepts in evolutionary biology. This book provides the first mechanistically based theory of what homology is and how it arises in evolution. The book argues that homology, or character identity, can be explained through the historical continuity of character identity networks—that is, the gene regulatory networks that enable differential gene expression. It shows how character identity is independent of the form and function of the character itself because the same network can activate different effector genes and thus control the development of different shapes, sizes, and qualities of the character. Demonstrating how this theoretical model can provide a foundation for understanding the evolutionary origin of novel characters, the book applies it to the origin and evolution of specific systems, such as cell types; skin, hair, and feathers; limbs and digits; and flowers. The first major synthesis of homology to be published in decades, this book reveals how a mechanistically based theory can serve as a unifying concept for any branch of science concerned with the structure and development of organisms, and how it can help explain major transitions in evolution and broad patterns of biological diversity.

The article is devoted to the problems of ethnic-cultural perceptions in contemporary Karachay-Balkar poetry. It defines criteria for shaping an ethnic and civic self-identity. The paper discusses how cultural globalization affects the ideology of the Karachay-Balkar people. In a detailed analysis of works by N. Bayramkulov and A. Bakkuev, two poets of a younger generation, the author argues that fundamental values and stereotypes take priority in the poetic mentality of younger artists. Closely examining the themes of the poets’ works – philosophy, religion, history, society and politics – the author specially describes the way each poet deals with the nation’s artistic memory. Another focus is on the analysis of poetics. It is suggested that the young poets’ creative method is found at convergence of realism and mythopoeia. Their poetry centers around the mythical images of stone, water, mountains, and ‘taulu’ (‘a man of the mountains’).
