One of the keys of Zola’s literary success relies on the integration of scientific developments from the 19th century into the narrative texts in such a natural way that only someone with a deep knowledge of both criticism and literature would be able to. This stylistic perfection is the result of a trial and error process that culminates in Les Rougon Macquart but in which Madeleine Férat and its approach to telegony play an outstanding but unknown role. This reproductive theory is at the same time an excuse to undergo a deep analysis of the bourgeoisie but also the beginning of the productive rela-tionship between science and literature, a major feature in Naturalism.

The article provides a scientific analysis of the Jadid movement in Turkestan in the second half of the 19th -early 20th centuries, their goals and objectives, representatives of the Jadid movement, their ideas. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, as a result of the rise of tsarist colonialism in Turkestan, the Jadid movement intensified in many parts of Central Asia. The Jadids, who entered the historical arena at the end of the 19th century, worked tirelessly for the life and future of the people and nation. In doing so, they also sacrificed their dear lives. They considered the hadith "There is no salvation but knowledge, and there can be no salvation" as a vital faith. They believedthat national independence, development and prosperity can be achieved primarily through education, secular and religious knowledge and deep knowledge of modern sciences

Abstract Uelen is a settlement inhabited by coastal Chukchi and Yupik people who do not only hunt sea animals but also carve their ivory. Archaeological excavations in Uelen testify that ivory carving has existed there at least since the beginning of our era. When whale hunters and traders came in Uelen in the 19th century, traditional ivory carving turned into an ethnic handicraft. In 1931, Uelen residents were the first to open an ivory carving workshop in Chukotka. In the mid-1930s, they benefited from the valuable help of the Russian artist and art critic Alexander Gorbunkov, who encouraged them to develop their own artistic potential. By the end of the 1930s, Uelen carvers and engravers had acquired their particular artistic style based on their deep knowledge of the Arctic hunters’ customs, expressive images of polar animals, and the natural beauty of walrus tusk. The involvement of a large number of Uelen inhabitants in ivory carving was the main reason for its preservation during the Second World War and the difficult aftermath. New tendencies, including human and folklore themes, emerged in the 1950s-1970s alongside traditional hunting depictions. In the 1980s and 1990s, Uelen artists included in their art some patterns from prehistoric ornaments. While many Chukotka artists are using new creative ways in the 2000s, Uelen carvers in general keep closer to tradition. For them, ivory carving has become a symbol of the vanishing culture of their ancestors.

This paper deals with the methods of natural healing that were practiced already in the 19th century by Swiss natural healer Arnold Rikli as a part of healing offer in Bled, Slovenia. The paper starts with the introduction of Rikli as a natural healer and his healing methods, based on hydrotherapy, heliotherapy, climate therapy and healthy diet. His healing methods were based on strengthening the immune system in a natural way. The paper takes an ethnographic approach based on in-depth analysis of the literature and online resources and fieldwork in Bled using the technique of partially structured interviews with the employees in tourist industry. The paper identifies the potential for the inclusion of Riklis natural healing methods in the modern tourist offer as the basis for creating Covid-adapted programmes and a source of survival for the existing wellness centres and other tourism providers in Bled.

The author of the Primary Chronicle (PC) had a dual purpose of proving the legitimacy of the dynasty of Scandinavian origin and recording the traditions of the ethnic Scandinavian and Slavic populations. The author of this paper endeavours to analyse the authenticity of information provided in the PC concerning the origin of early Slavs. Before a critical method of studying medieval narrative texts was developed in the late 19th and the early 20th century, the authenticity of medieval chronicles had not been questioned. Therefore, the 19th century historiography treated all the information from medieval texts as authentic. In Russian historiography it was A.A. Shakhmatov who while dealing with the PC, laid down the foundations of the critical method in dealing with chronicles. He was the founder of the famous school of historical philology which has placed text analysis at its centre. Despite this approach, a “new hypothesis” appeared in the last decades of the 20th century (see the linguistic theory of O.N. Trubachev) gained wide publicity both in Russia and abroad. Trubachev’s theory did not take into conssideration the results of either text analysis or the findings of archaeology and was a return to the position from the 19th century. The author of the paper shows that this theory was a blind alley.

This article historizes the terms the "Orient" and "orientals" by using anti-feminist and anti-semitic writing from the 19th century. The Jews were in science and literature portrayed as the "Others" withing Europe, and the author discusses the cultural changes, which are viewed as a critique of nationalism but also as a critique of modernity.

In this paper, we analyse features of the grammatical descriptions in Manchu grammar books from the Qing Dynasty. Manchu grammar books exemplify how Chinese scholars gave Chinese names to grammatical concepts in Manchu such as case, conjugation, and derivation which exist in agglutinating languages but not in isolating languages. A thorough examination reveals that Chinese scholarly understanding of Manchu grammar at the time had attained a high degree of sophistication. We conclude that the reason they did not apply modern grammatical concepts until the end of the 19th century was not a lack of ability but because the object of their grammatical descriptions was Chinese, a typical isolating language.

Levantine immigration to Chile started during the last quarter of the 19th century. This immigration, almost exclusively male at the outset, changed at the beginning of the 20th century when women started following their fathers, brothers, and husbands to the New World. Defining the role and status of the Arab woman within her community in Chile has never before been tackled in a detailed study. This article attempts to broach the subject by looking at Arabic newspapers published in Chile between 1912 and the end of the 1920s. A thematic analysis of articles dealing with the question of women or written by women, appearing in publications such as Al-Murshid, Asch-Schabibat, Al-Watan, and Oriente, will be discussed.
