The article analyzes a little-known episode in the history of Russian philoso­phy – the polemic of the editor of the journal “Questions of Philosophy and Psy­chology” N.Ya. Grot and the outstanding publicist of the conservative newspaper “Moskovskie Vedomosti” Yu.N. Govorukha-a boy who spoke under the pseudo­nym Yu. Nikolaev. The controversy took place in the first year of the magazine’s existence, when the principle and direction of the editorial policy were deter­mined. Yu.N. Govorukha-Otrok, sharing together with N.Ya. Grotto hope that the journal will lead to the formation of Russian national philosophy, insisted on the conscious circulation of the publication to the Slavophile tradition, defining the end goal of philosophical search for the creation of the Orthodox meta­physics meet the needs of aboriginal people's lives. His opponent, N.Ya. Grot, was a typical representative of the liberalism of the 80s of the XIX century, which was undecided in its socio-political preferences. Being a neophyte of meta­physics, the editor of “Questions” proceeded from an understanding of the ratio­nal nature of philosophical knowledge and justified the variety of directions of philosophical searches. He gave the pages of his magazine to the positivist authors from the liberal populist camp, which was completely unacceptable to his opponent. Thus, the circumstances of public life complicated the nature of the polemic on the issues of theoretical content and introduced social-evaluative judgments into it. Talker-Boy considered the polemic as an episode of the world-historical struggle of Christianity with the eudaemonistic idea of progress. The article claims that the subsequent development of Russian philosophy in the early twentieth century confirmed the correctness of the editorial line of the journal.

XIX в., проанализировав редакционную политику и основные литературные и религиозные взгляды главного редактора журнала С. О. Бурачка, который был автором многих журнальных публикаций: по вопросам кораблестроения, литературы, культуры, философии, психологии, истории России и Русской Церкви. В оценке классических произведений А. С. Пушкина и М. Ю. Лермо нтова С. О. Бурачок ставил христианские идеалы превыше литературных достоинств. Методология исследования базируется на комплексном применении традиционных научных методов: источниковедческого, историко-логического и сравнительноисторического. Несмотря на краткое время издания, журнал стал заметным явлением в журналистике и церковно-общественной жизни России середины XIX в. Закрытие журнала объясняется резким размежеванием общественного сознания, усилением в обществе либерально-западнических идей, проводниками которых стали многие периодические издания. Положительную оценку журнал «Маяк» получил в церковных кругах. Критически отзывались об идеологии журнала известные литературные деятели XIX в. В. Г. Белинский, Н. А. Полевой, Ф. В. Булгарин, А. А. Григорьев и др. «Maiak» magazine was first published in 1840 in St. Petersburg. The editor in 1840-1841 were P. A. Korsakov (1790-1844) and S. O.

The Way

In giving the very first lecture that first-year History of Art undergraduates at Oxford will hear, I usually employ the practice of giving them a sheet of paper with nothing on it but the outlines of the land masses of the globe, and ask them to draw a line round ‘the West’. The idea was inspired by a reading of Lewis and Wigen's 1997 bookThe Myth of Continents(‘justly celebrated’, as Sanjay Subrahmanyam says), and remains a useful pedagogic act, up to a point, for the reasons so clearly laid out in that book; also, it breaks the ice, it gets a buzz of conversation going in the room, it certainly foregrounds the topic, central now to art historical enquiry, of the way in which ‘representations are social facts’. But the reason I do not ask them to draw a map round ‘the East’ is that I suspect it would be too easy, or at least done too quickly, and indeed the boundaries of both ‘East’ and ‘Orient’, as ‘Europe's Other’, can be shown to have fluctuated much less than have the boundaries of what, for most Oxford students, is still, if somewhat tenuously, ‘us’ or ‘here’. Wherever ‘the East’ is, it all lies (as Subrahmanyam points out in his lecture) in that assuredly -etic part of the world called Asia. I might, in the privacy of my own hard drive, choose to categorize those European images which I need for teaching as ‘Non-Eastern’ (to balance the ‘Non-Western’ rubric on which my specialist options appear in the syllabus). But that is not a category widely used, or at least not in my own discipline of art history.

From the ancient times biliary surgery attracted a great attention of the doctors and other specialists all over the world. In medieval times, main efforts of medical workers were targeted to the liver and biliary anatomy research. Until the XV century doctors were not aware of the cholelithiasis, first steps in diagnosing and treating this disease were related to obstructive jaundice and biliary abscesses. Surgical treatment in XVIII-XIX centuries included intra-abdominal abscess drainage, pus and bile drainage, gall bladder lithotomy. If biliary colic was associated with local skin hyperemia in right hypochondrium, a surgeon would make an incision in this area, leading to biliary fistula formation and further recovery in some patients. In the middle of XIX century, surgeons started to perform cholecystostomy, removing the stones out of the gall bladder and performing the cholecystopexy to the laparotomy wound. Only in 1882 27-year old Langhenbuch, who was appointed as a head doctor in a hospital in Berlin, was the first one in the world to perform a cholecystectomy in 43-year old patient, who suffered from biliary colics for 16 years. Langhenbuch started to do surgeries on biliary system after many years of training on dead bodies. The peculiar progress in biliary surgery was observed during the last century. Minimally invasive and endoscopic technologies along with general anesthesia and antiseptics made this specialty safe for most of the patients, with cholecystectomy becoming one of the world’s most common surgeries. During the last decades laparoscopic cholecystectomy became the surgery of choice in treating cholelithiasis, and endoscopic papillosphincterotomy and choledocholithotomy - in treating choledocholithiasis.

Unconscious Desire

The article analyzes the searches conducted by F. M. Dostoevsky and V. F. Odoevsky for a “positively excellent” hero. It compares the images of Prince Myshkin from The Idiot and the hero of the dramatic excerpt Segeliel, or Don Quixote of the XIX century. The similarity between these two characters is reflected as early as in the history of their creation. The authors hypothesize that in both cases an Easter archetype emerges behind the conscious or unconscious desire to substitute a grim and sinful character with a “positively excelent” one. Myshkin and Segeliel love the world with a compassionate, selfless and active love, but they are alien to other people, differ by their very nature and are aware of this otherness. The heroes do not accept the “earthly” hierarchy in relation to people, they are incomprehensible to others and are laughable from the point of view of “common sense.” At the same time, there are numerous differences between them. Segeliel is a spirit, but he is rational, he believes in laws and in science. Myshkin strives for a mystical experience of life. Failures lead Myshkin to humility, and Segeliel to rebellion. Dostoevsky’s hero seeks to flee from the world. Odoevsky’s hero wants to intervene in earthly affairs. Segeliel wants to remake the world without God. He does not believe in the Creator and repines against him. Segeliel’s throwings are reminiscent of the complex dialectic of good and evil, construed by rebels from Dostoevsky’s novels. At the same time, it is important to distinguish the positions of Segeliel and Odoevsky himself, who is not in complete agreement with his hero. Certain common motifs, i.e., those of childhood and foolishness for Christ, create parallels between Myshkin and Odoevsky, the character and the writer. The many intersections between the image of Segeliel, his author and the image of Prince Myshkin allow us to identify the cultural code that appears in the works of Russian writers who sought to find the earthly embodiment of truth, goodness and beauty in a rough physical shell, inevitably hindered by original sin.

The article is devoted to the world exhibitions of the XIX century as a way to build an image of Japan in the opinion of European society. These exhibitions were a striking phenomenon that influenced many spheres of life in theparticipating countries and became effective ways of public opinion manipulation. This is a demonstration of scientific achievements, cultural and educational activities that provide opportunities for different cultures to interact with each other. Moreover, it is a chanse to promote certain ideas among the population and evidence of greatness and power of the states – technical superiority, military power were demonstrated not only for the people’s amusement. The exposition at the world exhibition of the XIX century can be viewed from several points. However, the author is primarily interested in its function as a platform for the formation of ideas of a country, its culture, traditions, and development level. They can be manipulated by choosing the image that is desirable to broadcast to the masses.Japanese were able to use the opportunity to form certain ideas of their country through international exhibitions. Earlier, it was an exotic country, covered by myths and legends, then Japan was distinctive and refined, and then it became a majestic country proud of its uniqueness. Due to the influence of world exhibitions, Europe began to perceive Japan as a desirable trade partner with unique culture and philosophy. The image of Japan represented the country for the majority of Europeans in the XIX century. Expositions at the world exhibitions broadcasted culture, art, history of the Land of the Rising Sun and showed the Japanese people’s identity, which fascinated Europe.

In 1949, the critic and controversialist Paul Blanshard launched a broadside attack on the Catholic hierarchy in the United States with the publication of American Freedom and Catholic Power, his harshly critical exploration of the Catholic church's involvement in American public life. An instant best-seller, American Freedom and Catholic Power went through eleven printings in its first year and continued to draw new readers throughout the 1950s. Blanshard's mission was to alert Americans to the movements of a Catholic hierarchy that was becoming, he charged, “more and more aggressive in extending the frontiers of Catholic authority into the fields of medicine, education, and foreign policy.” He reserved some of his most stinging commentary for the church's intrusion into the world of medicine.

Hands And Feet

<p>Psoriasis is uncommon in this part of the world, and the pustular variety is even rarer. It is for this reason that the patients are frequently misdiagnosed by their health care providers and presentat late to the dermatologists when complications have already set in. We report a case of a 33 year old female who presented to us with a two year history of pustular eruptions on her hands and feet, pain and swelling of joints in the affected areas and subsequent development of deformities. Prior to her presentation, she has been misdiagnosed as having tuberculosis of the skin as well as leprosy in different hospitals and treated as such with no improvement. On presentation to us, a skin biopsy was done and the specimen sent for histopathology. A diagnosis of pustular psoriasis was made and she was placed on oral methotrexate. She responded to treatment and the lesions resolved in a few weeks except for the joint deformities. This case illustrates the challenges encountered by patients with psoriasis in a resource poor setting like ours as well as the importance of availability of affordable drugs like methotrexate in their management. This is so considering the high cost and non-availability of more modern biologic agents in this part of the world.</p>

The paper considers the problem of determining the origins of legal realism by the example of the views of the outstanding representative of the Russian philosophy of law B.N. Chicherin as a generalized characteristic of the methods of legal knowledge and legal understanding that are widely used in modern legal thought. Taking into account the varie-ty of meanings and interpretations of the realism of law, the study demonstrates, first, the problem of articulating the central meaning of the principle of realism in the philosophy of law of the XIX century, which is fixed in Russian legal thought, secondly, the author substantiates the thesis that the name “legal realism” is not unambiguous and implies a variety of options for its conceptual design. Analyz-ing Chicherin’s legal views, the paper argues that legal realism in the modern history of political and legal thought is not seen only as the installation of the legal version of the philosophy of pragmatism, with its focus on making meaning based on social facts, but as a direction, articulated the recognition of the reality of law as a spiritual phenomenon.
