Introduction. The phenomenon of “tradition” is a key link in understanding the specifics of the current cultural processes. The problem of preserving and developing the ethnocultural tradition has acquired a new impetus for comprehension against the background of the emergence at the turn of the XX–XXI centuries of the so-called ethnic revival, the increased attention of peoples, including the Finno-Ugric ones to their own cultural and historical roots. This is facilitated by the strengthening of the integration of cultures within the Finno-Ugric community in the context of the formation of a new socio-cultural paradigm. Materials and Methods. The theoretical material of the study was the work of scholars in the field of studying the modern socio-cultural process, in particular on the example of the cultural heritage of the Finno-Ugric peoples. The reliability and research validity of the results is provided by the sociocultural approach, as well as by comparative and typological research methods. Results and Discussion. In the process of being an ethnocultural tradition in modern society, the process of festivization of the cultural process plays an important role, among other circumstances. It is characterized by the use of the phenomenon of ethnoculture as an external attribute, the functioning of which is reduced only to entertainment, creating the effect of festivity of the action, which leads to the devaluation of its value. However, the analysis of the new picture of the world that took shape at the turn of the XX–XXI centuries allows us to conclude that the idea of the integrity of the world, the understanding of space and time that underlie it, as well as the ecological and adaptive potential of the ethnocultural tradition remain consonant with the modern world, and this gives grounds for their preservation and development in the modern era. These conclusions fully apply to the cultural practice of the Finno-Ugric peoples at the present stage. Conclusion. On the basis of the studied material, a conclusion was made about the change in the functioning of the Finno-Ugric ethnocultural tradition in accordance with the objective conditions of its existence.

In a modern global historical context, scholars have often regarded piracy as an essentially European concept which was inappropriately applied by the expanding European powers to the rest of the world, mainly for the purpose of furthering colonial forms of domination in the economic, political, military, legal and cultural spheres. By contrast, this edited volume highlights the relevance of both European and non-European understandings of piracy to the development of global maritime security and freedom of navigation. It explores the significance of 'legal posturing' on the part of those accused of piracy, as well as the existence of non-European laws and regulations regarding piracy and related forms of maritime violence in the early modern era. The authors in this volume highlight cases from various parts of the early-modern world, thereby explaining piracy as a global phenomenon.

In the early modern world, exceptional bodies are linked to knowledge, not as the production of knowledge of the self through the scrutiny of those who have been ‘othered’, but as a means of inducing self-scrutiny and awareness of the limitations of human understanding. Exceptional beings and phenomena entice us to consider the world beyond that which is familiar to us and raise questions concerning our knowledge systems based on notions of what is natural or, in our modern era, normal. Rather than reacting with horror, disgust or pity, we can learn to respect the variety, mobility and resilience of the natural world in our contemplation of that which we see as exceptional.

<p class="normal">Counseling has been a need for people all over the world to the present day. This article will discuss discourses and practices of counseling in <em>Osing</em> as illustrated in <em>Lontar Yusuf</em> Manuscript. The study applies a qualitative approach with the technique of content analysis. This article argues that counseling has not only been a dominant discourse and practice of the modern society in the West but also a cultural wealth in the traditional society in Indonesia, as can be seen in Banyuwangi people (<em>Osing</em>). This article further argues that traditional local values of <em>Osing—</em>such as <em>moco saloko </em>(passing on God’s teachings through songs), <em>ngedapteyan </em>(being aware, patient, and resilient), <em>angering sang putri </em>(relieving sorrow), and <em>munajah </em>(praying to God)<em>—</em>has been a foundation for discourses and practices of <em>Osing</em> which can develop awareness of basic concepts of counseling and therapeutic techniques based on the importance of religion and godliness. The result of this study shows that counseling based on local wisdom of <em>Osing </em>can contribute to enrich discourse and practices of counseling in the modern era.</p>

The purpose of this paper is to study Donghak thought in relation to the idea of the current, post-modern era coming to an end. The concepts of “serving God within me” (sicheonju, 侍天主), “treating and respecting human beings as you would treat God” (sainyeocheon, 事人如天), “honoring the three” (samkyung, 三敬), and “Heaven eating Heaven” (icheonsigcheon, 以天食天), which are key to Donghak doctrine, will be examined. The meanings of “serving,” “treating and respecting,” and “harmony and balance” within the context of the aforementioned Donghak concepts will also be explored. In the present, post-modern period, humankind’s future is seen in a very negative way, with previous Utopian energies being considered exhausted. There are a multitude of “isms” and arguments in which reification and alienation within modern society are defined as omens of the end of this industrial era, which has corrupted and devastated human life. Today, religious movements are obliged to provide a spiritual drive that will lead their followers forward into a new era, establishing internal solidarity while associating with external elements. In this sense, the Donghak movement must put into practice the notions of “service, respect, and resuscitation” that are prominent in the ideologies behind the “serve God within me,” “treat and respect human beings as you would treat God,” “honor the three,” and “Heaven eats Heaven” concepts. In other words, in order to compete in the modern world, Donghak must concentrate on the belief that spiritual power can change society for the better.

The Glass Menagerie

Expressionism was a movement in art and literature which presented a very subjective view of the world. The movement itself revolted against realism and naturalism, while the technique distorted reality, displayed the human emotions and tried to reveal the psycho-spiritual truth in the Modern world. The Glass Menagerie (1944) tells the story of a broken modern family with three characters- Tom, Laura and Amanda, all of whom live in their own reality. This familys encounter with another worldly character Jim, however, crashed their fragile world around them. In the modern era, when people are often fed extraordinary dreams through different channels, The Glass Menagerie tells the story of sufferings, unfulfilled desires, purposes, ambition, and fear of losing self, familial discord and exposes the reality to them. Tennessee Williams in his play uses expressionism to give his audiences a look into this undetected reality of the world.

Este artigo consiste em uma reflexão sobre o caráter dual e complexo da interpretação de Nietzsche sobre a metafísica. Argumenta-se que as críticas do filósofo não têm por alvo a metafísica em si, mas sua subsistência anacrônica e continuada nos valores e instituições do mundo moderno. A dicotomia entre o mundo sensível e uma dimensão transcendente e superior, embora de incontestável valia em certo momento da história humana, passou a se constituir, na era moderna, num formidável entrave à expressão da vontade de poder do homem e, portanto, à sua sobrevivência enquanto tal.Abstract: This article reflects upon the dual and complex character of Nietzsche’s interpretation of metaphysics. It is argued that the philosopher’s criticisms are not directed at metaphysics as such, but rather at its anachronistic and continued presence in the values and institutions of the modern world. The dichotomy between the world of sense experience and a transcendent and superior realm, though of unquestionable value at a certain point in human history, came to be, in the modern era, a fearsome obstacle to the expression of man’s will to power, and, hence, to his very survival.
