The article proposes to discuss the concepts of the unconscious and conscience, from a phenomenological reference. Starting from the metaphor of a semantic analysis of the word “unconscious”, seek to develop reflections around its significance, making a contraposition with “awareness” and “conscious”. In this sense, still permeates the ideas of structure and process, as well as act and content, in the direction of the distinction between substantive and adjective. As analogy, take some ideas of Theodor Lipps in respect of the unconscious, as an entry to the subject of conscience in phenomenology using psychopathology and the criticism of Merleau-Ponty about the idea of interiority in psychology, to defend, finally, the idea of a conscience as position of the subject in the world, and affirm the phenomenology as a phenomenology of conscience in the world.

Finite Subjectivity

This chapter critically reads finite subjectivity in terms of its natural, instinctual dimension. The chapter’s objective is to further substantiate the significant problem Hegel’s conception of nature poses to his project of radical freedom. Developing a sense of subjectivity’s potential for “regression”, the chapter seeks to outline how, as in the case of acute psychopathology, subjectivity’s ordering of its instinctual dimension might be undermined. Hegelian regression, therefore, is a haywire inversion where the logical superiority of spirit’s freedom is subordinated to the ontologically prior register of instinct. Extrapolating from this analysis, the chapter contends that the unconscious-instinctual depth of the subject is never entirely abandoned; this abyss (Schacht) of indeterminacy lingers within the matrices of finite spirit and has the perpetual possibility of breaking-loose to the detriment of subjectivity’s free self-actualizing activity. Consequently, a reconstruction of Hegel’s account of mental illness forcefully demonstrates how nature remains a perpetual source of trauma for finite subjectivity and, therefore, the life of spirit.

Modern Russian

The mysterious Russian soul is always looking for non-trivial aspects of a problem. The modern coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) has become the subject of ridicule in the everyday laughing practices of Russian people. In this case, the laughing discourse acts as a form of psychological defense and struggle against the inevitable evil. The importance of the research is due to the lack of knowledge of the communicative and cognitive aspects of laughter discourse and the need to study the modern anecdote on the topic "coronavirus pandemic" in the aspect of forming the stability of the human psyche in the conditions of pandemics and isolation. The relevance of this work is also determined by the fact that it expands the empirical base of discourse linguistics, LSP theory and practice, motivology and emotive linguistics, whose interests include consideration of the problem of the influence of emotions on language. The relevance of the work also lies in the fact that special attention is paid to the little-studied phenomenon of "black humor", which is vividly represented in the laughing discourse about coronavirus. Unfortunately, today Russia occupies the leading positions in terms of the number of people infected with virus COVID-19. Archetypal fear of unknown Evil, of invisible death evoke chthonic experiences of the unconscious from the depths of the subconscious, actualizing the laughable techniques of devaluing danger as one of the effective methods of psychological protection. The world stereotype defines Russian people as frowning and unsmiling, extremely hostile to the world around them. The article reveals the specifics of modern Russian anecdotes about COVID-19. This allows the reader to understand what the stress resistance and resilience of the Russian person in a situation of degenerate press of negative information in various media is. This situation is complicated by fake news stories about the pandemic. What are Russian people laughing at during the pandemic? What helps them survive and stay mentally healthy in this situation? What is the specifics of Russian jokes about the pandemic? How do these anecdotes structure a person's inner space in a new way? What Parallels can we find in a laughing culture that plays up the stigmatized situations of tragedies, wars, and epidemics? This article is intended as an attempt to answer these and other questions.

Set Up

Freud writes in his startlingly innovative book, Wit and Its Relation to the Unconscious, that “…our philosophical inquiries have not awarded to wit the important role that it plays in our mental life.” He pointed out the difficulties of studying the phenomenon scientifically, and went on to analyze the meanings of jokes and why we laugh. He emphasized the “pleasure in economy” that the central nervous system derives from the pithy nature of the witty synthesis. Since then, several authors have brought forward their own theories, Arthur Koestler among them. However, neuroscientists have shown little interest in the subject.This needs urgent attention. It is therefore welcome that at least one group of scientists is taking jokes seriously. They set up a “Laugh Lab” Web site to investigate humor, and respondents from all over the world were asked to vote for the “best” of several jokes displayed on the site. Their responses will be analyzed and hypotheses tested.

Opening Up

This paper is a contribution to the ongoing studies revolving around the fields of Afro-Pessimism and Non-Philosophy. It is focused mostly on a short essay that Francois Laruelle wrote in 1989 called "The Concept of Generalized Analysis or 'Non-Analysis" that eventually became part of a larger work called Theorie des Etrangers, while also drawing on the latter for support. The focus is set not in terms of exegesis or commentary but in tandem with the work of Frank Wilderson III to borrow from both of their works and formulate a move from the "White restrained Unconscious" to the "(Black) generalized Unconscious". In the first section I articulate Laruelle and Wilderson's critiques of the common-sense image of the Unconscious. And in the second section I make the move from the White restrained Unconscious to the (Black) generalized Unconscious by arguing that the former is embedded within a metaphysical sovereignty of desires that excludes (Black) desires. The "White restrained Unconscious" is constituted by what Laruelle calls a "half loss" or a loss which loses itself. For this reason the (Black) generalized Unconscious cannot appear within it, for it is an absolute loss, or what Laruelle calls the Joui-sans-Jouissance. The White generalized Unconsicous blocks (Black) loss out by a transference mechanism. The opening up of the White restrained Unconscious to the (Black) generalized Unconscious which is its Identity in the last instance can only be done by "ending the World". Using Jared Sexton's notion of the "social life of social death" I show that this desire to end the world allows for a seeing from perspective of the "One" which is the subject position of the (Black) Non-Analyst and allows for a dualysis of the desires of the White restrained Unconscious.

The article analyses the creative work of Sigizmund Krzhizhanovsky with the help of a surrealist code. Associations with magic realism, with imaginism and partly with the literary nonsense naturally arise when considering the elements of the fantastic, the miraculous, the imaginary, the oneiric in Sigizmund Krzhizhanovsky’s aesthetic and artistic system. The surrealistic is present in the work of Sigizmund Krzhizhanovsky implicitly. At the external levels of the structure, the most obvious signs of surrealist writing (nonlinear architectonics of the subject and the world, the representation of the desire of the unconscious, automatism, chains of «stupéfi ant images») either have a circumstantial nature or are not detected at all. However, as shown in the article, those signifi cant elements that appear and are almost obsessively repeated in Sigizmund Krzhizhanovsky’s writing (minimal metaphysic defamiliarisation, framing, contemplation of the invisible, metonymic parallax) can be called minimal surreal gestures. The article analyses the main features and specifi cs of the implementation of the metaphysic defamiliarisation, one of such gestures. This defamiliarisation is realised through complex work with space and time. The metaphysical is not beyond, but appears in this world, imperceptibly changing the perception of real objects, the atmosphere itself, drawing the subject into a strange mise-en-scène of nothingness, which does not violate the general specifi city and immanence of the landscape.

The relevance of this topic is conditioned by the need for a systematic study of the nature of mythological consciousness caused by the growing trend of recognising myth as a powerful spiritual tool possessing humanistic value. This article studies the features of the spatial and temporal organisation of the epic worlds of Yakut and Shor tales. Space and time serve as fundamental categories that model the world of nations. The subject of this article is mythological chronotope, i. e. world modeling in the epic traditions of the Yakuts and Shors. The author identifies and analyses elements of mythopoetic views expressed in plot motifs, which are deep layers of folklore texts related to the archaic sensory perception of ancient people. The author aims to demonstrate similarities and differences in the mythological world-modeling of the Yakut and Shor epics. The paper employs a comparative typological approach, using methods of description, hermeneutics, modeling, and structural and semantic analysis. The author concludes that in the Yakut and Shor epic traditions, there is a single principle in the world modeling of epic spaces and a common logic of mythological geography. At the same time, the comparison of texts in question demonstrates that while there exists a fairly harmonious mythological system of Yakut epos, the Shor system bears signs of reflection of certain features of the archaic myth, containing very early elements indicating an earlier stage in the tradition, and characterised by a greater transparency of meanings. As a result, new editions of Shor epos are going to be even more interesting for further comparative studies.

The article offers means of defining the features of the hero as a structure of the musical text of pieces from the children’s repertoire. Since any kind of artistic text is created in accordance with unified semantics-bearing laws, the category of the musical hero is examined along with such categories of poetics as the author, the protagonist, the image, the dialogue, the scene, the subject matter, the idea, which, nonetheless, up to now have continued to be relegated to the sphere of metaphors. Nonetheless, the description of the features of the hero on the basis of intonational lexis of various types of etymology is seen as presenting its result. Demonstration of the indicated features incorporates a particular mechanism of semantic analysis, which makes it possible to elucidate the lexical structures manifesting the hero. Semantic analysis has shown that the category of the hero is presented in the musical text structurally; it may be described both as a biologically definite being and a socially concrete personality. Moreover, pieces from the children’s repertoire are endowed with the capacity of manifesting the personified hero who represents living nature. The attributing of the hero also sees the participation of the heading, which, nonetheless, does not always indicate the hero directly. However, the heading always (whether directly or indirectly) depicts the hero’s place of action and the world surrounding him.The hero receives his attribution most often in musical speech and in plastic models. Besides the “audible” and “visible” attributes, the hero in an artistic text is also actualized through the features of evaluative character: with their help the author, who is situated “off-screen,” endows the hero with the biological and characterological features of a human being. Study of musical content from the point of view of the categories of musical poetics may make the interaction of the analytical aspect with performance practice more effectual and productive. At the same time, the various approaches to the art of performance shall inevitably acquire new features which bring the performer’s activities in the questions of articulation and intonation closer with dramatic art.

The subject of alignment is not new to the world of education. Today however, it has come to mean different things and to have a heuristic value in education according to research in different areas, not least for neuroscience, and to attention to skills and to the alternation framework.This paper, after looking at the classic references that already attributed an important role to alignment in education processes, looks at the strategic role of alignment in the current context, outlining the shared construction processes and focusing on some of the ways in which this is put into effect.Alignment is part of a participatory, enactive approach that gives a central role to the interaction between teaching and learning, avoiding the limits of behaviourism, which has a greater bias towards teaching, and cognitivism/constructivism, which focus their attention on learning and in any case, on that which separates a teacher preparing the environment and a student working in it.
