Abstract This article focuses on the theme of the family secret as literary genre, motif, and structure in the work of the contemporary French author Gisèle Fournier. Following a triaxle scheme, the article analyzes the particular polyphonic writing of the secret and the unspeakable, and explores the long psychological process of the victims as depicted in Fournier’s writings. In addition, the study situates Fournier’s oeuvre in the same tradition as two of the most prominent contemporary French authors, Marie NDiaye and Laurent Mauvignier.

Eliot's plays follow the basic pattern of sin - expiation - communion. Murder in the Cathedral and The Family Reunion are cast in a religious context and the characters hope for communion through suffering and in the after-life. The Cocktail Party, The Confidential Clerk and The Elder Statesman are cast in a secular context and the characters seek to integrate themselves through action, rather than through martyrdom. From The Cocktail Party on, the dramatization of the characters' integration reveals Eliot’s shift from transcendental to earthly concerns. That shift influences his choice of literary genre and approach to character, plot, diction and style. The distinction between comedy and tragedy is erased. Sin begins to be referred to also as an existential problem; priest and psychiatrist become one in other words, Eliot gradually overlaps the languages of religion and psychology. However, the secularization of his last plays does not mean that the experience is not religious. Religion becomes less a matter of Church ritual conceived in the ways of the world.

In 1975 an unusual family reunion was held at Children's Hospital in Oakland, California. The large Joseph family had gathered for the first time. One of their members had finally taken the family secret to the National Genetics Foundation and asked for help with the unique disease that for many years had been passed in their family from one generation to the next. The National Genetics Foundation sent a team of neurologists and geneticists to the reunion and held the first screening clinic for what became known as Joseph's Disease, and later as Machado-Joseph disease (MJD). Diagnosis of those afflicted with the disease was made from neurological examinations, and at-risk status was determined from family history and genealogical analysis.

The article focuses on the specifi cs of Muslims’ motivation, determined by the method of Stojković I. and Mirić J. We consider the motivation to be a psychological state directing the psychological process into a certain course and realized in activities. The study was based on an opinion-poll of 90 people from Almaty, Ufa, Kazan and Moscow. The study has proven that Muslims with high internal motivation for faith also display high social motivation for religion. Internal motivation is closely related to the concept of Islam as a source of emotional well-being, ideals and morality. Muslims’ perception of Islam highly correlates with the values of traditionalism. It appears that women preferably emphasize the role of Islam in preserving the traditions of the family and people in accordance to the same of men. Religion is partly considered by Muslims as means of fulfi lling desires, but this parameter is not the principal one. Perceiving religion as means of fulfi lling desires connects to the respondents’ understanding Islam itself as a way of maintaining traditionalism, the continuity of the family legacy and ethnic community. The results of the study make it possible to highlight the abovementioned confessionally-caused features of motivation among Muslims.

The article deals with the problem of the ratio of documentary and fiction in a special literary genre of non-fiction based on the work “Life after (small stories)” by the philologist V.S. Baevsky. The study of the genre of non-fiction remains relevant for literary studies, and this problem, studied on the material of V.S. Baevsky's prose, has not previously become a subject for study. Within the framework of the proposed research, it is concluded that the documentary accuracy of historical events, geographical names, and the appeal to real personalities reflected in the work do not deny the artistic authenticity of the work. At the same time, the facts of history, personal biography of the author and his relatives are organically woven into the verbal fabric of the narrative. The family is presented against the background of the most important historical events (war, evacuation, perestroika), which indicates the inextricable connection between the fate of a person and the fate of the country. This allows Baevsky, on the one hand, to analyze his life path, on the other - to show a person of a transitional era and the historical reality in which he found himself. In the work, the author actively turns to literary techniques that promote artistic expressiveness and imagery, create an artistic world of “small stories”.
