THREE HUNDRED years ago there appeared in New England a book on how to raise children—almost certainly the first of its kind to appear in this country. The fact that it was the forerunner of what in recent years has amounted to a spate of books and articles on the same subject is noteworthy enough. More interesting is the fact that it was written at all. Books on any phase of child life were rarities in those days. Individually, children 300 years ago were undoubtedly as important to their parents as they are today, but children collectively and their special problems had not loomed large in the public conscience. Here, perhaps, for the first time, the American an conscience is speaking out on the subject of children—through a minister whose parishioners approved what they heard from the pulpit and urged that it be set down in print. Because Thomas Cobbet deemed them worthy subjects, we can now catch a glimpse of children of early New England and compare their behavior and what Puritan New England thought about it with children and parents of today. The comparisons are made doubly interesting since our present culture is still heavily indebted to Puritan thought. Not much is known of Thomas Cobbet, the author.1 He was born in 11 Newbury, England in 1608. He attended Oxford but left on account of the plague. He was a nonconformist and chose to emigrate to avoid persecution. Cobbet arrived in Massachusetts in 1637 with Davenport, and was a colleague to Mr. Whiting of Lynn until 1656 when be became the pastor of the first church in Ipswich, where he remained until his death in 1685.

Scientific Topic

Public Archaeology is a young discipline, we all know that. It’s even younger in Italy, where public archaeology has not even reached ‘adulthood’. Cited for the first time by Armando De Guio in 2000 (De Guio and Bressan 2000), it was only a decade later that Public Archaeology has started to become ‘a thing’, thanks to some pioneering experiences at the University of Florence (Bonacchi 2009; Vannini 2011), and especially after a national conference in 2012 (in Florence: see Zuanni 2013 for a summary). Italian archaeologists’ first reaction was to overlap the new discipline with the experiences already in place, which in Italy were under the category of ‘valorizzazione’ (enhancement). They were not exactly the same: while Public Archaeology is characterised by a reflection on the objectives of the research from the very start, a focus on having a reliable methodology, and a strong element linked to evaluation, ‘enhancement’ experiences – while often valuable and successful – lacked the same structure and reliability. This is probably due to an underestimation of these practices as a scientific topic, thus deserving the same structure required for any other type of research. Often this resulted in a mere description of the activities carried out, with a generic objective like ‘increasing the knowledge of archaeology in the public sphere’ without really evaluating if the activities worked or not. Public Archaeology became a sort of a trendy subject, outdating the term ‘valorizzazione’, at least in most of the university milieu, and creating confusion on the subject and the methodology. This sometimes has led to a sort of ‘hangover’ effect, similar to what happens with summer songs: they sound fun when you first hear them, but after months you just want to move on! Few doctoral theses awarded in Archaeology have been devoted to topics related to Public Archaeology up to the present date and the risk is that after this ‘hangover’ the subject will be penalised in comparison to others.

The Turkish world's opera history gave its first example in 1908 with the opera "Leyli and Majnun" by Azerbaijani composer Üzeyir Hacıbeyli. According to many sources, "Leyli and Majnun" is described as the first opera of the Turkish world and the Islamic world, and the east. The most important feature of this opera is the masterful synthesis of classical western music and folk music. The opera, which was composed for the first time in this way, influenced the east with its staging and ensured that the art of opera was adopted by the public. The great composer Uzeyir Hajibeyli was born in the city of Shusha in Azerbaijan, which was developed in the field of literature and music and called the "natural conservatory." He developed his existing talent here and built it on solid foundations. He was interested in music and literature, wrote many books, articles, and was a writer for newspapers. The subject of the opera Leyli and Majnun is taken from Fuzuli's "Leyli and Majnun" poetry of the same name. At the age of 13, the composer decided to write this opera, influenced by the theater show "At the tomb of Majnun Leyli'' which he watched in Shusha, his home city. He started working on opera in 1907 when he was only 22 years old. By bringing a different perspective to opera, he used the tonal structure of western music with 'mugham,' also known as Azerbaijani folk music. This type of opera is also called "Mugam Opera.'' The opera, which was composed and performed despite the conditions of the period, preserved its originality by combining two cultures and was performed many times in other countries. Operas from the Turkish world are rarely staged in our country, and there is a need for such an article because the opera "Leyli and Majnun" has not been staged much in Turkey and there are very few theses, articles, and books about it. In this study; Different titles have been created such as the history of Azerbaijan opera, the life of Uzeyir Hajibeyli, the composer's process of creating the opera, and the content of the opera Leyli and Majnun. Keywords: Leyli and Majnun, Uzeyir Hajibeyli, Turkish World, Opera

A DAILY PLAN FOR THE DOMESTIC EDUCATION OF YOUNG GIRLS AS SUGGESTED BY A BOSTON MOTHER IN 1829

The early school laws, at least in New England, did not provide for the education of young girls. In fact, these laws did not even recognize girls, expressly stating that "the word ‘children’ is to be interpreted to mean ‘boys.’ " There was no controversy on the subject. It simply appears that it was considered unnecessary that girls be instructed in the public schools.1 Nevertheless, either at dame schools or at home, most girls learned at least to read and sew. Writing was thought to be much less important; even at the time of the Revolution, many of the patriots' wives and mothers could not write. It was not until 1822 when Boston became a city that girls were permitted access to the common (public) schools. See table in PDF file One Boston mother who was bothered by this discrimination in the education of young girls wrote a popular book in 1829 on the domestic education of girls. From the examples cited in this book, girls had an active and, by our standards, a long day, with little time to themselves.2 The scheme given here, which was meant for a girl between 10 and 12 years of age, would seem too demanding to me for our girls of the same age. The last question before going to sleep—What good have I done today?

V. N. Karazin, the founder of the Kharkiv National University, was a gifted person. He took an active position in life, was a state and public figure, engaged in various branches of science. Contemporaries and descendants called Karazin «Ukrainian Lomonosov»: he was engaged in chemistry, meteorology, astronomy, agronomy, achieving outstanding results in all sectors. The scientist’s life, work and scientific legacy have been the subject of many studies. However, his views on the state and law in this article are studied for the first time. They were formed in the spirit of Enlightenment ideas and met the principles of humanism. V. N. Karazin’s legal worldview is based on his understanding of the principle of legality as the cornerstone of the public good. He adhered to the ideas of a monarchy limited by law (actually constitutional), the existence of representative bodies of power. He paid special attention to ensuring the separation of powers and the independence of the court from the administration. V. N. Karazin solved the main public question about the existence of serfdom law from the position of an enlightened humane landowner, pointing to the legislative restriction of landlord arbitrariness, recognition of the peasant’s human rights, the organization of peasant self-government and the formation of peasants’ property rights and the corresponding legal consciousness. Having no special legal education, the scientist paid much attention to self-education, was familiar with the works of prominent legal philosophers and legal theorists, such as S. Pufendorff, T. Hobbes, A. Mabli, S. L. Montesquieu, J. Rousseau.

Jewish Women as Teachers of Religion in Galicia Before 1914 The article describes the activities of Jewish women teaching religion in Galician public schools. The first women performed this profession in the 1870s, in the 1890s they were listed for the first time in the schematisms (the official lists of civil servants), in the next decade the first woman received a permanent teaching position, and in 1913 they were for the first time directly addressed in the job announcement for teachers of religion. Therefore, their position became more established toward the end of the autonomous period, although they still constituted an absolute minority in this professional group. The emergence of female teachers of religion raised protests among the male members of this professional group. They voiced three main arguments against granting women teaching positions: their alleged insufficient qualifications, the tradition of Judaism, and what they understood to be the “social justice”(according to which men deserved permanent teaching contracts more than women). The article discusses the chronology of granting women the positions of teachers of religion, describes the public debate on the subject, and addresses the issue of women’s professional qualifications. It is based on both printed and archival sources and on historical press. * Artykuł powstał w ramach projektu Narodowego Centrum Nauki pt. „Religia mojżeszowa” jako przedmiot szkolny w Galicji: programy nauczania, podręczniki, nauczyciele, konkurs „Sonata” (2018/31/D/HS3/03604).

Purpose: To explore and to analyze the global experience in anticorruption compliance management and to highlight exceptional importance of the anticorruption compliance system to be implemented in Ukraine for fighting corruption; to determine necessary steps to involve workers to the local anticorruption program; to offer specific recommendations for reforming the existing anticorruption compliance system in Ukraine. Methodology: The study was conducted with general scientific (formalization, abstraction, analysis, and synthesis) and specific scientific (formal and legal, comparative and legal, and legal forecasting) cognitive methods applied. Result: Upon thorough investigation of the issue, the author concluded that the anticorruption compliance system should be approved upon discussion with public officials, offered a new form of this discussion to be effective and to function in fighting against corruption offenses in domestic practice, and noticed that compliance management should involve professional standards, powers distribution regulation, and ethics rules determination. Applications: The study is known to be innovative in Ukraine and the results might be interesting and useful for domestic legislators and public administration subjects at the building of the highly effective anticorruption compliance system. Novelty/Originality: The study is believed to cast some light on the gaps in this issue which needed to be clarified since previous poor efforts seem still contradictory. The subject of the study is considered in Ukraine for the first time. The results of the study are obtained based on the independent investigation of the current anticorruption program in the public service and might be promising for effective application.

The sphere of the unknown, supernatural and miraculous is one of the most popular subjects for everyday discussions in Ayodhya – the last of the provinces of the Mughal Empire, which entered the British Raj in 1859, and in the distant past – the space of many legendary and mythological events. Mostly they concern encounters with inhabitants of the “other world” – spirits, ghosts, jinns as well as miraculous healings following magic rituals or meetings with the so-called saints of different religions (Hindu sadhus, Sufi dervishes),with incomprehensible and frightening natural phenomena. According to the author’s observations ideas of the unknown in Avadh are codified and structured in Avadh better than in other parts of India. Local people can clearly define if they witness a bhut or a jinn and whether the disease is caused by some witchcraft or other reasons. Perhaps that is due to the presence in the holy town of a persistent tradition of katha, the public presentation of plots from the Ramayana epic in both the narrative and poetic as well as performative forms. But are the events and phenomena in question a miracle for the Avadhvasis, residents of Ayodhya and its environs, or are they so commonplace that they do not surprise or fascinate? That exactly is the subject of the essay, written on the basis of materials collected by the author in Ayodhya during the period of 2010 – 2019. The author would like to express his appreciation to Mr. Alok Sharma (Faizabad) for his advice and cooperation.

This study was aimed at identifying new effective forms that could facilitate the achievement of a practice-oriented result, i.e. students’ ability to communicate in any speech situation, as well as their readiness for various kinds of oral and written examination tests, including the public defence of projects in the 10th grade and writing December essays in the 11th grade. The article considers rhetorical competitions as a means of developing communicative and linguistic competencies among 10th–11th grade students of a polycultural school. The article provides recommendations on organizing such competitions, criteria for evaluating presentations, examples of oral presentations. A textual analysis of the folklore material of Dagestanian and Russian fairy tales and proverbs allowed the authors to conclude that an inexhaustible set of universal themes that have become the subject of reflection in different nations, can teach students to respect other cultures and extend their knowledge of the world and other people. The experience of a rhetorical competition in high school on the basis of fairy tales and proverbs of different nations is expected to help students form such core competencies as critical thinking, creativity, communication and cooperation (ability to work in a team).

This given article reveals the topicality not only of destructive, but also of constructive, as well as hybrid conflicts. Practically it has been done for the first time. It also describes the history of the formation of both foreign and domestic social conflictology. At the same time, the chronology of the development of the latter is restored and presented objectively, in full, taking into account the contribution of those researchers who actually stood at its origins. The article deals with the essence of the socio-psychological approach to understanding conflicts. The subject of social conflictology includes the regularities of their occurrence and manifestation at various levels, spheres and conditions, including normal, complicated and extreme ones. Social conflictology includes the theory and practice of diagnosing, resolving, and resolving social conflicts. It analyzes the difficulties that occur in defining the concept, structure, dynamics, and classification of social conflicts. Therefore, it is no accident that the most important task is to create a full-fledged theory of social conflicts. Without this, it is impossible to talk about effective settlement and resolution of social conflicts. Social conflictology is an integral part of conflictology. There is still a lot of work to be done, both in theory and in application, for its complete design. At present, there is an urgent need to develop conflict-related competence not only of professionals, but also for various groups of the population.
