Russian rhetoric began with Mikhail Lomonosov’s Brief Guide to Eloquence (1765), which was written in the classical tradition of the Aristotelian-Ciceronian teaching about effective and persuasive speech. By the time philology had become a unified knowledge system in 1820s, Russian rhetoric stopped being a part of the trivium of verbal sciences, which also included grammar and logic, and evolved into a theory of language arts [slovesnost] that included both fiction and nonfiction literature. Its focus shifted from statement building to development and classification of the existing types and genres of literature. The science gave birth to a new discipline, namely the history and theory of literature, Nikolay Grech being one of its founders. Thus, the subject of rhetoric was mostly the principles of understanding of written fiction. Grech’s concept reflected those new trends in the development of rhetoric while focusing on the analysis of the system of Russian literature as a whole. The present research employed the methods of comparative analysis and analytical interpretation of the text. The article introduces N. Grech’s ideas about rhetorical and fictional prose, as well as his classification of prose and poetry. The author showed how the emergence of borderline, semi-rhetorical, and semi-poetic genres, changed the relationship between prose and poetry and, accordingly, between rhetoric and poetics. From a tool for creating an utterance, rhetoric gradually became a tool for analyzing a finished text.

The article aims to present the mechanisms of collectivist logic as it functions in three areas: (1) in the historical comparative analysis of genocides – the basic method of genocidestudies; (2) in the activities of the organizations of victims and survivors, as well as in actions undertaken by animal rights activists; (3) in nationalist discourses and in the politics of memory. Collectivist logic is a set of operations that address human communities – groups of individuals linked together by significant social bonds and interests, and perceived as culturally distinctive – as the subject of history. As a result of the application of such logic, we may think about collective guilt and collective merit. The article discusses the advantages and disadvantages of historical comparative analysis as an essential methodological tool of genocide studies. The argument further focuses upon the use of the symbolic capital attributed to the term “genocide” in studies involving analyses comparing other crimes – as well as the industrial exploitation of animals – to genocides. Finally, the author describes the relationship between the state policy of memory, nationalist discourses, and the academic integrity of genocide scholars.

In Russian and Persian, the category of indirect evidentiality points out to some unreliable source of information. The category of admirativity expresses unexpected and new information gained by the speaker. Such interrogative sentences convey combine admirativity with diff erent modal meanings. Foreign students of Russian often fi nd it hard to distinguish these meanings in Russian interrogative sentences. The authors compared Russian and Persian interrogative sentences and the linguistics tools that refl ect the admirative category with an assessment of modal meanings of possibility and motivation. This is the fi rst research of the category of admirativity in the Persian language and the fi rst publication on the comparison of Russian and Persian interrogative sentences, as well as on the relationship between admirativity and modal meanings in Russian and Persian interrogative sentences. The research objective was to perform a comparative analysis of admirativity in Russian and Persian interrogative sentences and to study the situations in which this meaning conveys the surprise of the speaker from the availability or lack of possibility to perform a certain action. In both languages, admirativity can accompany the feeling of motivation in the subject of the speech act. The findings can be useful in teaching Russian as a foreign language.

In educational policy and practical school discourse, cooperation between parents and schools is generally considered important in promoting more equal-opportunity education, but is also described as difficult in terms of implementation. The relationship between schools and parents with a so-called migration background (Migrationshintergrund) is the subject of a great deal of discussion, and these parents are frequently assigned responsibility of a lack in cooperation. In this contribution, I will show that the classification of an entire group of parents as bildungsfern (literally “far from education”) is part of the problem. (This problematic term is currently used in Germany to designate those population groups that in Anglo-American discourse are labelled “educationally disadvantaged”.) Classical forms of participation such as parents’ associations are insufficient and do not live up to parental diversity. The concept of democratic school-development (Schütze & Hildebrandt 2006) tries to engage all the parents in a school to minimize exclusion and institutional hierarchies. The starting point of this study, presented here in sections, is whether this can succeed over the long term. Democratic processes of school development offer great potential to approach diversity constructively and to make schools more democratic. But such processes, it seems, can never be considered completed, but need to be seen as an ongoing development in which all participants need to be involved in ever new ways and where the aims require constant renegotiation.

The subject offorensic examination as a practical activity is one of the most important categories offorensic examinations theory. The subject offorensic examination is used to classify forensic examinations. The definition of the subject offorensic examinations through the prism of information theory categories is the most productive. Information is a part of the data about the investigated object which is used to solve a particular task. Legal information is used during investigation of crimes. The author proposes a classification of legal information. Information is divided into criminally relevant and neutral, depending on the relationship of the data to the event of the crime. Information is procedural or nonprocedural, depending on the method of receipt in accordance with the procedural law. Information is evidentiary if it presents the content of evidence by itself. Information is orienting when it’s used for organizational or tactical purposes. Information is criminalistic, expert or operative-search, depending on the methods and subjects of its receipt. Information, received by the expert during the investigation, is criminally relevant or neutral, procedural, expert, evidentiary or orienting. The data that are received by an expert, become useful information if they help to resolve issues put to a forensic expert. A special object of forensic examination (information field) is the totality of homogeneous properties of the subsumer. The direct object of an expert research is a part of a special object that is subjected to research during a specific expert study. The subject of forensic examination kind is evidentiary and orienting information that can be obtained at the contemporary stage of forensic examination development by researching a special object that is a part of the object properties offorensic examination kind. The subject ofparticular forensic examination is evidentiary or orienting information, which must be obtained by an investigation of a direct object that is the part of the properties of the particular material carrier submitted for examination.

Aim. The paper continues the series of publications that investigate and discuss the essence and definitions of the basic concepts of the dependability theory. It analyzes the basic concept, which is the subject of consideration in dependability, for which the term “item” is usually used. The concept of “dependability” is defined for it, and in general all the terminology of dependability applies to it. The following issues are considered: how to name and define this subject of consideration, what it can be, what can be its constituents. In particular, the relationship between the concepts of “item” and “product” is discussed.Methods. The evolution of definitions of this concept in the Russian and international terminological standards in dependability over the past 30 years is traced. A comparative analysis of other standards and federal laws relating to items of different types is carried out. The viability of two main ways of getting an idea of a concept is considered: illustrative (based on examples) and definitional (by means of sequential definition of some concepts through others).Findings and conclusions. The definition and correct understanding of the concept of “item” is of great importance, as it affects the scope of dependability standards. It is explained why it is necessary to accept that the definitions of the basic concepts cannot be rigorously formalized and are in fact only explanations. It is shown that the definitions of the item in the existing Russian and international standards (GOST 27.002–2015 and IEC 60050-192:2015) have inaccuracies. To eliminate them, improved notes to the definition of an item are proposed. The first note lists the possible types of items: products (parts, assembly units, complexes) and their components; buildings and structures; systems consisting of jointly functioning products and structures and their subsystems. The second note indicates the relationship between the main constituents of the item: hardware, software and people (personnel), and their possible combinations. The paper provides reasons for considering virtual items that play an important role in today’s information and telecommunication technologies and are logically isolated subsystems within the systems that they are part of. Besides that, it points out the deficiencies in the definitions of various items in GOST 18322–2016.

Leadership competencies are of crucial importance in every organisation as to a large extent they determine its success. This is especially evident in the time of Industry 4.0. Given this fact, the aim of our paper is to examine the relationship between leadership competencies and 4.0 leadership effectiveness. The heat and power plants industry was chosen as the subject of our research. The fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fs/QCA) was used as the research method. It enabled us not only to analyse particular variables, competences, and typical statistical relations between them, but we also revealed the patterns of causal relationships between particular variables. The key finding of our research was the juxtaposition of leadership competencies that are indispensable for 4.0 leaders in the CHP plants. We also found out that managerial competencies were not sufficient, and they should be supported by intellectual or socio-emotional ones.
