This ritual is performed only by the old about fiftyand over 1898: pragmatics of the old age in traditional culture of SlavsThe age is one of the basic categories in the participants’ stratification in traditional rituals, and the age regulations are compulsory for the different spheres of folk culture. In accordance with the traditional notions, the old were parents who have married children, and especially if they had the grandchild. The ambivalent perception of the old is caused by their knowledge of life and wisdom, as well as by the ritual cleanness, but also their potential danger as persons who are before the death. These beliefs are manifested in the context of traditional family and calendar customs and rituals, in the first place those of the funeral and repast cycle, and on the whole with the semantics of safeguard or sacrifice. At the same time already at the end of the 19th century the transformation or destruction of many rituals caused that participants in them were only the old. Такий звичай виконують лише старі років п’ятдесяти й більше 1898 р.: прагматика старості у традиційній культурі слов’янВік є однією з основних категорій стратифікації учасників традиційної обрядовості, а вікові регламентації обов’язкові для різних сфер народної культури. За традиційними уявленнями, старими вважали батьків, які видали заміж/оженили дітей, а особливо, якщо вже вони мали онуків. Амбівалентність сприйняття літніх/старих людей обумовлюється як їхнім життєвим досвідом та мудрістю, так і ритуальною чистотою, а водночас і потенційною загрозою як осіб, близьких до смерті. Ці уявлення знаходять вираження в контексті традиційних родинних та календарних звичаїв та обрядів, у першу чергу поховально-поминального циклу, і загалом тих, котрі мають семантику захисту та жертвоприношення. Разом із тим, уже наприкінці ХІХ ст. трансформація або занепад багатьох обрядів призводили до того, що участь у них брали тільки люди старшого віку.

In this paper, we analyse features of the grammatical descriptions in Manchu grammar books from the Qing Dynasty. Manchu grammar books exemplify how Chinese scholars gave Chinese names to grammatical concepts in Manchu such as case, conjugation, and derivation which exist in agglutinating languages but not in isolating languages. A thorough examination reveals that Chinese scholarly understanding of Manchu grammar at the time had attained a high degree of sophistication. We conclude that the reason they did not apply modern grammatical concepts until the end of the 19th century was not a lack of ability but because the object of their grammatical descriptions was Chinese, a typical isolating language.

Levantine immigration to Chile started during the last quarter of the 19th century. This immigration, almost exclusively male at the outset, changed at the beginning of the 20th century when women started following their fathers, brothers, and husbands to the New World. Defining the role and status of the Arab woman within her community in Chile has never before been tackled in a detailed study. This article attempts to broach the subject by looking at Arabic newspapers published in Chile between 1912 and the end of the 1920s. A thematic analysis of articles dealing with the question of women or written by women, appearing in publications such as Al-Murshid, Asch-Schabibat, Al-Watan, and Oriente, will be discussed.
