The subject of this paper is the „putting devil into hell” humorous metaphor from the tenth novel of the third day in Boccacio’s Decameron. The main methodological basis for the analysis is the conceptual integration theory by Mark Turner and Gilles Fauconnier (1994), as well as proposed supplements to the model (Coulson & Oakley 2005; Hedblom, Kutz, Neuhaus 2015). The author points out that to read Boccacio’s novel in a christian-moralistic manner also means to interpret the given metaphor as a double-scope network. The second possibility is to read the story in the spirit of carnivalesque logic, through understanding the metaphor as a single-scope network. In accordance with Mikhail Bakhtin’s hypothesis that the folk culture of the Middle Ages is embedded into the renaissance culture, the author concludes that Boc- cacio’s metaphor must be interpreted as the metaphor of the latter type, since that this type of reading is in accordance with the textual strategies of the piece.


AIthough the two closely allied subjects of emulsification and detergent action are of great importance in many brandies of technology, they seem to have been very little studied from a scientific point of view. Many technical chemists seem even now to bold the primitive and erroneous view that the detergent action of a soap solution is due to the saponification of grease by the alkali set free by hydrolysis. In the first edition (1893) of Thorpe's 'Dictionary of Applied Chemistry' it is stated that “the value of soap as a detergent is largely due to the fact that contact with water breaks up a neutral soap...” In the new edition (1913) no reference is made to any theory of detergent action. In neither edition is there an article on “Emulsions” or “Emulsification.” It is evident that the theory of these processes is in an unsatisfactory state, as regards both its actual development and its dissemination among those to whom it is of importance. The present paper is the beginning of an attempt at a systematic scientific study of the subject. The first section deals with some theoretical points relating to the process of emulsification, which are in part an amplification of views expressed by one of us in previous papers, and which are of importance in connection with the subsequent parts of the present paper. The second part deals with some experimental work which we have conducted during the last six months. The results of this work solve a fundamental problem in the theory of detergent action. In the third part is outlined a new theory as to the function of alkali in soap solutions.

The purpose of the article is to typologize terminological definitions of security, to find out the general, to identify the originality of their interpretations depending on the subject of legal regulation. The methodological basis of the study is the methods that made it possible to obtain valid conclusions, in particular, the method of comparison, through which it became possible to correlate different interpretations of the term "security"; method of hermeneutics, which allowed to elaborate texts of normative legal acts of Ukraine, method of typologization, which made it possible to create typologization groups of variants of understanding of the term "security". Scientific novelty. The article analyzes the understanding of the term "security" in various regulatory acts in force in Ukraine. Typological groups were understood to understand the term "security". Conclusions. The analysis of the legal material makes it possible to confirm that the issues of security are within the scope of both legislative regulation and various specialized by-laws. However, today there is no single conception on how to interpret security terminology. This is due both to the wide range of social relations that are the subject of legal regulation and to the relativity of the notion of security itself and the lack of coherence of views on its definition in legal acts and in the scientific literature. The multiplicity of definitions is explained by combinations of material and procedural understanding, static - dynamic, and conditioned by the peculiarities of a particular branch of legal regulation, limited ability to use methods of one or another branch, the inter-branch nature of some variations of security, etc. Separation, common and different in the definition of "security" can be used to further standardize, in fact, the regulatory legal understanding of security to more effectively implement the legal regulation of the security direction.

The various published biographies and biographical notices of G.I. Gurdjieff (c.1865-1949) are of diverse style, quantity and content. While some have made considerable contributions to the subject, most attempts have reacted for or against Gurdjieff’s status as what might call an ‘Enlightened Master’. Little biographical writing on Gurdjieff has questioned the scope, reliability and prejudices of the sources. Further, possible resources have been neglected. The development in Gurdjieff’s ideas is often overlooked, his life is not sufficiently related to that development, and the lack of comparative research has failed to highlight Gurdjieff’s unique contributions. This article is structured in four parts. The first is an introduction, followed by an overview of existing biographical studies of Gurdjieff. The third part addresses bias in these studies, and this is followed by suggestions for future studies. It is concluded that fieldwork regarding the biography of Gurdjieff has been hampered by imperfect methodology. However, with better use of the source material, some of which has only recently been discovered, and a rigorous use of sources, a more balanced and nuanced picture of Gurdjieff’s life, and the development of his ideas and methods, should emerge.
