Resumo: Este artigo objetiva descrever como a Casa Anísio Teixeira, instituição localizada em Caetité-Bahia, busca ressignificar os atos de narrar e ouvir histórias. Por meio do Núcleo de Artes Cênicas e do Núcleo de Contação de Histórias, a Casa desenvolve ações de estímulo à leitura, demonstrando a importância da produção, circulação e recepção de saberes culturais. Como metodologia, adotou-se a análise documental, que permite a percepção do alcance social, a descrição de estratégias de adaptação das ações realizadas pelos contadores de histórias, em meio a dificuldades de manutenção de centros culturais. Reconstitui-se, então, o histórico de formação desses Núcleos e apresentam-se suas principais ações, o que implica refletir sobre a importância da experiência para tornar a contação de histórias mais presente nas relações humanas. O artigo aponta a imediaticidade e a efemeridade das vivências como possíveis causas para o declínio do ato de narrar, ao tempo em que se considera a tradição oral como principal fator para retomada e ressignificação do uso de narrativas. Conclui-se que as técnicas teatrais funcionam como boa estratégia para desenvolver a contação de histórias na atualidade em instituições diversas, contribuindo para ampliar a percepção do alcance e importância de práticas culturais de leitura.Palavras-chave: contação de histórias; leitura; centro cultural; Casa Anísio Teixeira.Abstract: This article aims to describe how Casa Anísio Teixeira, an institution located in Caetité-Bahia, seeks to re-signify the acts of narrating and hearing stories. Through the Center for Performing Arts and the Nucleus of Storytelling, the House develops actions to stimulate reading, demonstrating the importance of the production, circulation and reception of cultural knowledge. As a methodology, documentary analysis was adopted, which allows the perception of social outreach, the description of strategies to adapt the actions carried out by storytellers, in the midst of difficulties in maintaining cultural centers. We reconstruct the history of formation of these nuclei and present their main actions, which implies reflecting on the importance of the experience to make the storytelling more present in human relations. The article points out the immediacy and the ephemerality of the experiences as possible causes for the decline of the act of narrating, at the time when oral tradition is considered as the main factor for resumption and re - signification of the use of narratives. It is concluded that the theater techniques work as a good strategy to develop storytelling at present in diverse institutions, contributing to broaden the perception of the reach and importance of cultural reading practices.Keywords: storytelling; reading; cultural center; Casa Anísio Teixeira.

This paper will focus on the importance of digitally archiving waiata and haka (Māori song, chant and dance). Māori arrived in Aotearoa from their traditional homeland in the Pacific carrying with them all of the knowledge of their own ancestors, none of which was written down. This Māori oral tradition has taken on many forms, including waiata and haka. Waiata and haka are traditional mediums for the transmission of knowledge including tribal history, politics, historical landmarks, genealogy and environmental knowledge while also acting as traditional forms of expression for the articulation of anger, hatred, sadness, love and desire. Waiata and haka are examples of Māori poetry and literature and have been likened to the archives of the Māori people, preserving important historical and cultural knowledge. Therefore, waiata and haka offer an alternative view of the history of Aotearoa/New Zealand to those that are based on mainstream Eurocentric history books and archives. Waiata and haka are also important for the survival of the Māori language and culture. In this sense, they are bound to Māori identity. As a result of colonisation many of these compositions are being lost through time and with them, a knowledge base regarding the meaning behind the words. The adoption of digital technology to preserve waiata and haka provides a tool that could aid the oral tradition. Tāmata Toiere, a digital repository of waiata and haka, is a national resource which demonstrates the interface between recovering traditional knowledge and storing this through innovative technology for future generations.

History Of Formation

The article, based on the analysis of archaeological materials, written sources and oral tradition, attempted to recreate the history of formation of the rural community of Machada in Highland Dagestan. The Dagestani historiography disseminated a version according to which the village of Machada was founded in the early 16th century. Machada, on a large steep slope of the mountain there is a burial ground with stone boxes, dated VI-VIII centuries AD. Thus, the emergence of the village of Machada should be dated at least VI century AD. At the same time, 1.5 km from Machada is a medieval settlement Choloda, whose inhabitants moved to Machada in the early XVI century. Residents of the settlement located on the northern outskirts of Machadah also moved here. Despite the rural community formed in the first half of the 16th century, a new cemetery was formed there in the 1630s. Thus, for about 100 years, residents of Machadah buried the dead in the Muslim cemetery of Choloda. Thanks to the large area of agricultural land around Machada, they could receive new settlers. The largest resettlement probably took place in the 16th century from Khunzakh, which led to the formation of one of 4 related groups of Machadah. The other three tukhums were formed through the resettlement of residents of neighboring tukhum settlements in Machadi. By the end of the XVI century, a tukhum structure had been formed consisting of 4 tukhums - kinship groups, which later began to receive later immigrants. Thus, the application of the retrospective method makes it possible to answer the main questions raised by the researcher on the history of formation of a rural community in Highland Dagestan.

This book explores the legacy of the Brothers Grimm in Europe and North America, from the nineteenth century to the present. The book reveals how the Grimms came to play a pivotal and unusual role in the evolution of Western folklore and in the history of the most significant cultural genre in the world—the fairy tale. Folklorists Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm sought to discover and preserve a rich abundance of stories emanating from an oral tradition, and encouraged friends, colleagues, and strangers to gather and share these tales. As a result, hundreds of thousands of wonderful folk and fairy tales poured into books throughout Europe and have kept coming. The book looks at the transformation of the Grimms' tales into children's literature, the Americanization of the tales, the “Grimm” aspects of contemporary tales, and the tales' utopian impulses. It shows that the Grimms were not the first scholars to turn their attention to folk tales, but were vital in expanding readership and setting the high standards for folk-tale collecting that continue through the current era. The book concludes with a look at contemporary adaptations of the tales and raises questions about authenticity, target audience, and consumerism. The book examines the lasting universal influence of two brothers and their collected tales on today's storytelling world.

Abstract The growing number of foreign applicants looking forward to getting education in Ukrainian medical universities makes us find the ways how to improve and make effective the pre-professional training system of foreign medical applicants for further education. The article deals with the issues of the history of formation and development of the preprofessional training system of foreign medical applicants in Ukraine. On the ground of the electronic databases of the official websites of higher educational establishments, the data on years of opening first offices of the dean, departments and preparatory faculties for foreign medical applicants in Ukrainian medical universities are analyzed and systematized. Also the data on the setting up preparatory faculties at other universities who carry out licensed training of foreign students of the medical profile are presented. The data on the operating and management of such institutions in the system of the University administration are generalized. It’s revealed that during the years of its functioning the pre-professional training has changed, in particular the system was commercialized and the institutions involved in training foreign applicants have been reorganized. The modern trends in teaching foreign medical students at the preparatory faculties of the Ukrainian medical universities are displayed. Based on the analysis of the data it is concluded that the system of the pre-professional training of foreign medical applicants was set up in the 50s-60s years of the twentieth century. During this time, some positive experience in the preparation of future international medical specialists has been gained. The system of the pre-professional training of foreign medical applicants has been comprehensively improved and an effective system of managing foreign medical applicants has been created.
