The subject of our study is the narrative techniques in the poetry of ʻAbd al-Wahhāb al-Bayātī (1926-1999) which were taken into account through the example of his second published works Abārīq Muhashshamah “Broken Pitchers, 1954”, as narration. The aim of the article is to define the features of narration and how the same techniques appear in creative work of a poet, one of the pioneers of modernity in contemporary Arabic poetry, in addition to Badr Shākir al-Sayyāb (1926-1964), and Nāzik al-Malā'ikah (1926-2007). The study defines the following objectives: Determining the approaches developed in studying the aspects of narration in poetry, to distinguish the narrative examples in the modern poetic text under study; To show the process of creating the poetic genre in the Bayati literature through the example of free verse poems. This article seeks, through the methodological principles of narrative research, to reveal the features of the narrative model that organizes communication in al-Bayātī 's poetry, as well as the features of the composition of the narrative structure of the text in al-Bayātī 's collection Broken Pitchers. The article analyzes the poetic texts and their intertwining with prose, as it tries to uncover the narrative and performance discourses from which the poet set out in determining the techniques of narration he uses, the communicative possibilities such as dialogues and the narrator's point of view in the poems at al-Bayātī.

AbstractModern poetry developed and transformed difficulty into a prominent aesthetic norm of poetry. The abundance of difficult poetic texts necessitates a study of the corpus. After differentiating between the way difficulty is perceived in poetry and in other communicative acts, I present the approach that I have adopted for the purpose of studying difficult poetry. In contrast to other studies which have examined difficulty from the author's perspective and, as a consequence, described factors that cause textual difficulty, I propose to examine the subject from the reader's point of view. The reader, after all, is the one who feels or does not feel the difficulty. The concept ‘difficult poem’ is necessarily interdisciplinary and the question of what is “difficult” involves cognitive psychology and its models of text comprehension. Following a discussion of these domains, I present the “definition” that I propose for the ‘difficult poem’.

ABSTRAK Estetika merujuk kepada cabang ilmu yang membahaskan perihal keindahan dalam karya sastera. Unsur estetika memainkan peranan penting dalam penghasilan sesebuah karya kreatif, iaitu dijadikan sebagai medium bahasa dalam menyampaikan mesej yang jelas kepada pembaca. Kajian yang dilakukan ini berdasarkan pengamatan pengkaji tentang pendapat sarjana sastera yang mendakwa novel-novel fiksyen sains yang terhasil daripada Sayembara Fiksyen Sains dan Teknologi tidak memaparkan unsur keindahan bahasa kepada pembaca. Sehubungan dengan itu, untuk merungkai permasalahan ini pengkaji menggunakan lima buah novel pemenang Sayembara Fiksyen Sains dan Teknologi iaitu Bekamorfosis (2012) karya Jali Kenoi, Petaka Bakteria (2012) karya Mohd Kasim Mahmud, Puranakila (2015) karya Saadiah Ibrahim, Ajal (2015) karya Ruhaini Matdarin dan Yang Diselindung Samudera (2017) karya Nor Azida Ishak, Fadli al-Akiti dan Ted Mahsun. Kajian yang dilakukan ini juga mempunyai dua objektif kajian iaitu mengklasifikasi dan menganalisis unsur estetika bahasa iaitu penggunaan gaya bahasa yang terdapat dalam novel-novel kajian. Oleh itu, kajian ini menggunakan kaedah kajian kepustakaan, analisis teks dan penerapan Teori Puitika Sastera Melayu yang diasaskan oleh Muhammad Haji Salleh sebagai sokongan terhadap hujahan pengkaji. Hasil kajian yang dilakukan terhadap novel-novel fiksyen sains tersebut pengkaji mendapati dua jenis gaya bahasa yang diketengahkan oleh pengarang iaitu gaya bahasa perbandingan dan gaya bahasa pengulangan. Gaya bahasa tersebut juga dapat dikaitkan dengan konsep estetika dalam Teori Puitika Sastera Melayu iaitu keindahan dalam mendidik atau mengajar, keindahan dalam pengungkapan kesusahan dan kesedihan serta keindahan dalam rasa seperti yang dinyatakan oleh Muhammad Haji Salleh.   ABSTRACT Aesthetics refers to the branch of knowledge that debates the subject of beauty in literary works. The aesthetic element plays an important role in the production of a creative work, which serves as a language medium in delivering clear messages to the reader. This study is based on the study of literary scholars who claim that science fiction novels from the Science and Technology Fiction Contest do not present the language’s beauty element to readers. To this end, the researcher used the five novels of Science and Technology Fiction Contest winners namely Bekamorfosis (2012) by Jali Kenoi, Petaka Bakteria (2012) by Mohd Kasim Mahmud, Puranakila (2015) by Saadiah Ibrahim, Ajal (2015) by Ruhaini Matdarin and Yang Diselindung Samudera (2017) by Nor Azida Ishak, Ted Mahsun and Fadli Al-Akiti. The study also has two objectives of the study which is to classify and analyze the aesthetics of language which is the use of language style found in the research novels. Therefore, this study uses the method of literature review, analysis and application of the theory of poetic text Malay literature founded by Muhammad Haji Salleh in support of the submissions from researchers. As a result of the study of science fiction novels, researchers have identified two types of language styles that the author promotes: comparative language style and repetition language style. The style of these languages can also be associated with the aesthetic concept in the theory of poetic beauty of Malay literature in educating or teaching, discovery of beauty in distress and sadness and beauty in the sense as described by Muhammad Haji Salleh.

The subject of this research is the adequacy of translation of Avar poetry into the Russian language on the example of the poem “If They Will Draw My Portrait” by the National Poet of Dagestan Fazu Gamzatovna Aliyeva. The object of this research is the lyrical works of Fazu Aliyeva and other Dagestan poets. Using the method of comparative analysis, the authors draw parallel between the Avar and Russian versions of F. Aliyeva’s poem, which has been translated by the Russian poet-translator Vladimir Turkin. The goal of this article lies in the comparative study of the lyrical poem by the Avar poet and its literary translation into the Russian language. The question of the literary translations of poetic texts from the native languages into the Russian language remains relevant at all times. The degree of accuracy and adequacy of the translation of modern or classic Dagestan poetic texts into the Russian language is yet to be fully researched. The novelty of this work consists in comprehensive analysis of the adequacy of translation of the lyrical texts of the Avar poet Fazu Aliyeva into the Russian language. The adequate professional translation into the Russian language is invaluable for the development of literature of the Caucasian peoples (and all national literatures of the peoples that are part of the Russian Federation). This helps them reach a wider readership. Juxtaposition of the original poetic text and its translation into the Russian language proves that Vladimir Turkin has achieved full adequacy of conveying the Avar text, despite the discrepancy in translating spatial details, which not in the slightest distorts the stylistic and emotional-expressive peculiarities inherent to the poem by the Dagestan poet Fazu Aliyeva.

This article scrutinizes I. S. Turgenev’s “A Lear of the Steppes” and the artistic structure of its perceptual space. The story, written in 1870, finds its place between the middle and the last periods of the author’s artistic life and combines realistic, mystic, and fantastic features. The purpose of this work is to show the “ambivalent essence” of the protagonist in a composition of visual, acoustic, and olfactory artistic space. These aspects were studied on olfactory codes and landscape imagery. The novelty of the current research lies in comparing the poetics of spatial images to the point of view of the narrator, whose psychoacoustic experiences became the subject of the author’s self-reflection. The story’s sensory space is multilevel: it is concentrated in the “hero of the steppe”, Kharlov, and in the narrator, and for the latter the steppe is both a friendly and a foreign world. The topic of estrangement of a patchy understanding of the motherland is latent and reveals itself in the personal mode of narration. This article also shows that the narrator’s view dominates the visual space; the narrator describes the protagonist’s portrait in terms that are characteristic of the steppe’s landscape. The acoustic and olfactory spaces are also depicted from the point of view of the narrator. The subjective character of the sensory images serves to emphasize the conflict that lies at the basis of the narrative structure of the story whose main two types of characters turn to be a natural national character and a reflecting character molded under the influence of the European culture.

The parable of the Good Samaritan: Narrative techniques within an extended comparison This paper argues that the narrative structure of the parable as an extended comparison is crucial to an elucidation of religious doctrine. The content of neighbourly love is clarified through the presentation of narrative material in the parable of the Good Samaritan. The arrangement of events, the distribution of actantial roles and the manipulation of focalization all point to an unexpected revelation of neighbourly love: the loving deed of the Samaritan is presented as a deviation from normal or expected behaviour; contrary to accepted social classification, the person capable of neighbourly love is an outcast; and lastly, the person in need of help determines from his point of view which one of the passers-by is capable of love. The universal applicability of the parable may be traced to the structure of the comparison where the vehicles are given but the tenors left open.

The current article, that follows the research cycle analyzing natural phenomena metaphors, examines the star metaphors identified in the works of 40 Lithuanian and 54 Russian poets (mostly 20th century). It also studies the subject metaphors which constitute from the ethnolinguistic point of view the most numerous and most interesting group of six semantic subgroups of star metaphors. The subject metaphors of stars can be both substantive and verbal. However, the article focuses on substantive metaphors. They are divided into nine groups: 1) something written, drawn or embroidered (letters, written texts, books, drawings, figures); 2) lighting devices and other lighting means; 3) clothing, fabrics, yarn, knitted or woven items; 4) small metal, shiny, rounded or sharp objects (jewelry, coins, nails, needles, weapons, etc.); 5) buildings and their parts; 6) kitchen utensils; 7) food and drinks; 8) vehicles; 9) fragments of large objects and debris. The study showed the similarity of the poetic systems of the two languages, in which the same metaphorical models are presented, as well as their differences. The largest number of subject metaphors of stars in both poetic traditions was found in the first four groups, the examples from the following three groups were less common, while the examples in which star metaphors related to vehicles were hardly found. The differences between the two poetic systems may be observed due to the differences in cultures and traditional names of stars and constellations in the languages. The article noted that the author’s poetic metaphor in both Lithuanian and Russian could correlate with folklore tradition, that is with riddles, proverbs, legends and traditional beliefs, which are often common to the two languages.

En skildring af gymnastikpædagogen Elli Björksténs perspektiver på og udvikling af idrætten omkring første halvdel af 1900-tallet med særligt fokus på Björksténs gymnastikforms indflydelse på kvinden som køn.Pia Lundquist Wanneberg: Elli Björkstén – an innovator or administer of the gender order?From a gender point of view a reformation of the Swedish Ling gymnastics took place during the beginning of the 20th Century: a division into a female and a male form of physical education. Originator was the Finnish gymnastic teacher Elli Björkstén and her reforming had consequences for the education in Swedish schools. Up until puberty, girls and boys could do gymnastics and sport together as well as do the same things, but after that the boys were guided towards exercises that worked on strength, determination and performance, and girls towards aesthetic exercises, which developed agility, flexibility and grace. From a fairly asexual environment, the dividing lines became more rigid at the time of puberty. What warranted the distinction was the first sight of the pubescent girl, who was physically weak: a weakness that was due to reproduction. Consequently, the physical education of girls and boys revealed important differences. Whilst the girls’ gymnastic lessons gave a lot of scope to rhythmic movements, such as singing- and dancing games, as well as exercises that demanded, for instance, agility, the boys’ lessons comprised, to the same extent, of endurance- and strength training exercises in the form of, for instance, apparatus gymnastics and running. The distinction within sport, however, lessened with the growing physiologisation of the subject. In his studies, Per- Olof Åstrand had shown that pubescent girls were not weaker that pubescent girls were not weaker than the boys. In the gymnastics section, however, this distinction remained until 1980. Girls and boys were still to be raised into two different types: one, supple and graceful and the other, strong with stamina. From a gender point of view, the individualisation of the school system did not entail any change. In school, the pupils were still regarded as two genders, not as people or individuals.

The article presents and clarifies the topic that was focused on the influence of stress factors in the manger’s activity. The subject of the evaluation was the impact of stress on the work and performance of managers. Using the methods we used, we learned about whether stress is a daily part of the managerial position from the point of view of the managers themselves. Furthermore, we are dealing with the issue of the extent to which stressful situations affect the quality and efficiency of the work of managers and we are looking for the main causes of stress in the manager’s work. At the same time, we address the possibilities of managing stress, eliminating stress in the work environment, and streamlining workflows in the form of stress stimuli. Last but not least, we have focused on identifying the level of management stress management to support the management of the stresses in organizations where individual managers operate.
