The aim of the paper is to analyse two Spanish greeting formulas derivated from the atelic predicate besar las manos (y los pies) ‘to kiss the hands (and feet)’, which, despite their apparent formal resemblance, came to codify totally opposite socio-pragmatic values. Through the systematic search in epistolary texts until the beginnings of the 20th century we will try to find (i) the socio-pragmatic factors that play the most important role in each type of greeting; (ii) the paradigmatic origin of each formula, and (iii) their sociocultural distribution.

The author has been tripping on wires onstage and offstage for half a century of technological change in music. She has observed the trajectory of the disembodiment of music from analog instruments to tape to laptop computer performance. The process of disembodiment that began millennia ago with the use of instruments that distanced the musical use of voice, hands and feet with the body in resonance has accelerated in the 20th century to a crisis point. How do musicians, composers and audiences relate with the disconnected body and disembodied music? The call now seems to be to reintegrate the body with technology. The solution seems to indicate that the technology and body will merge in a re-embodied wireless future.

This article deals with issues related to the interaction of language and religion, such as the influence of Hesychasm philosophy on the speech of Russian Orthodox monks, which shows itself primarily at the ideological level. Referring to the epistolary texts of Russian Orthodox monks-writers of the XX century, the author shows the features of the fundamental ideas of the religious and philosophical doctrine of Hesychasts represented in the language. It is stated that the main representatives of the Hesychast ideas in the epistolary texts of Russian Orthodox monasticism of the XX century are overwords units and words nominating these ideas, as well as derivatives of nominees. It is noted that representatives of the ideas of salvation, theosis, transfiguration, silence, seclusion, etc. belong to the Orthodox vocabulary corpus of spiritual and moral content. The author refers to the use of words and verwords units from the subject area of Hesychasm and specific etiquette speech formulas of greetings and farewells to the distinctive linguistic features of the epistolary texts of Orthodox monks-writers. The question of the influence of prayer making on monastic speech, which forms its distinctive character, is discussed separately: the monk's speech is unique in its prayerfulness and richness with prayers lexis (which reflects a deep mental immersion in prayer texts of different eras).

Abstract. Dyslexia is a phenomenon for which the brain correlates have been studied since the beginning of the 20th century. Simultaneously, the field of education has also been studying dyslexia and its remediation, mainly through behavioral data. The last two decades have seen a growing interest in integrating neuroscience and education. This article provides a quick overview of pertinent scientific literature involving neurophysiological data on functional brain differences in dyslexia and discusses their very limited influence on the development of reading remediation for dyslexic individuals. Nevertheless, it appears that if certain conditions are met – related to the key elements of educational neuroscience and to the nature of the research questions – conceivable benefits can be expected from the integration of neurophysiological data with educational research. When neurophysiological data can be employed to overcome the limits of using behavioral data alone, researchers can both unravel phenomenon otherwise impossible to document and raise new questions.
