The second article of the cycle examines the resolution of the freedom and fate antinomy in the period of the writer’s maturity. It is shown that towards the end of his life Dostoevsky comes to rethinking the concept of fate in the spirit of the modern (postclassical) understanding within the framework of which the latter is interpreted by him not as an evil fate but as an ally of a man in the search for himself. The true antipode of freedom is no longer fate, but the world of necessity, represented both by the grip of material need and by the character of the writer closely related to his illness.

The article deals with the new project — the Internet portal Dostoevsky and the World, launched by the Pushkin House for the 200th anniversary of the writer’s birth. The work offers the basic information on the project. The Internet resource that would host the most representative examples of the reception of Dostoevsky’s personality and work in various epochs and in various countries is a great way to familiarize the modern reader with the wide scope of interest in Dostoevsky in the past and present. The project focuses on the non-academic reception, philosophical and aesthetic interpretations, the attitudes of public fi gures, writers, stage and movie directors, publicists, etc. The collection of case studies of Dostoevsky’s reception by today’s cultural fi gures, as well as the publication of the previously unknown writer-related sources of the past years, are of particular importance.

In 1998, on the 200th anniversary of her first apparition, the image of the Virgin Mary, which had appeared to a group of martyrs in La Vang, Vietnam (and was known as Our Lady of La Vang), was transformed from a European woman into a Vietnamese woman. The change was initiated by Vietnamese Catholics in southern California, who then exported the Vietnamized image to Catholic communities in Vietnam and other parts of the world. Today, the image of Our Lady of La Vang has become a global representation of the Virgin Mary as an Asian woman

The year 2020 features the 200th anniversary of Florence Nightingale's birth. Her legacy is often recalled as simply being “the lady with the lamp” who cared for sick and wounded British soldiers; however, her impact on the nursing profession includes serving as a role model for many leadership behaviors and strategies that have positively impacted the health of communities and populations around the world. Through her tireless endeavors, Nightingale exemplified many leadership roles, including advocate, change agent, interprofessional collaborator, and visionary. The development of effective skills in these leadership roles remains important for all levels of nursing leaders in today's health-care environment. This article showcases Nightingale's leadership in selected leadership roles, and demonstrates her continued impact on contemporary nurses.

Perhaps an astrologer would claim that due to some remarkable astral influence the year 1955–6 marks the 200th anniversary of the birth of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart on 27th January 1956; the centenary of the death of Sören Kierkegaard on 11th November 1955, and the seventieth birthday of Karl Barth on 10th May 1956. The three dates are being suitably observed by music-lovers and scholars the world over. But something more than a disposition of the stars links their names together. For if, as we believe, Kierkegaard and Barth, like Luther and Calvin in the sixteenth century, represent the end of an epoch and the dawn of a new era, then according to both men, Mozart is the herald of a new age. Though Mozart lived in the eighteenth century, he actually represented the end of the Age of Absolutism in which he lived and which lingered on in idealism and contemporary existentialism. At the same time he marked the beginning of a new day in which men would begin, not with expressions of their own consciousness, but with grateful praise to the Creator who has revealed Himself totheir consciousness. In Mozart's music Kierkegaard believed he had heard a No to the past: to man who is the measure of all things. Barth, on the other hand, believes he has heard a Yes to the goodness of God's creatures. Not that Mozart himself was a sort of Hegelian synthesis.

The article deals with the three aspects of Taras Shevchenko’s artistic genius – creativementality, dualistic world view and poetic imagery. The poet’s psychological identitypredetermined a unique combination of conceptual, philosophical and aesthetic elements in hisworks.The analysis of Shevchenko’s poetic works, his ‘Kobzar’ collection in particular, reveals theprocess of merging ‘personal identity’ with ‘social identity’. At the very beginning of his creativecareer, the two principles developed independently – from outer macroworld and innermicroworld; Shevchenko’s mature works offer evidence of their natural synthesis responsible forthe phenomenon of his poetic genius. The analysis of Shevchenko’s shorter poems and his heroicpoem ‘Haidamaky’ shows that dualism is the underlying principle of his poetry: Shevchenko’s‘social identity’ is presented in terms of mythological consciousness, his ‘personal identity’ (owingto life circumstances), in terms of existential philosophy.The analysis of Shevchenko’s artistic mentality, philosophical, mythological, existential, andaesthetic concepts adds to our understanding of the unique world of the great Ukrainian poet. Hispoetry reflects his own knowledge of the world; at the same time, it represents this world in all thecomplexity of national and universal phenomena; Shevchenko could only become a great worldwriter by becoming a great Ukrainian writer

In 1976 we will celebrate the 200th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, the formal birth of our country. In our protracted war for independence, the freedom loving people of the United States were engaged in a bitter struggle against the greatest world power of that time. The war was not over at the time of independence. But that declaration symbolized both the beginning of the end of colonialism in America and the coming into the world community of a new state, the United States of America. The British neither recognized our right to self-determination, nor the declaration of independence, nor did they voluntarily hand over power to us. We seized it because it was our inalienable right.

Pragmatist Philosophy

AbstractA pragmatist philosophy of psychological science offers to the direct replication debate concrete recommendations and novel benefits that are not discussed in Zwaan et al. This philosophy guides our work as field experimentalists interested in behavioral measurement. Furthermore, all psychologists can relate to its ultimate aim set out by William James: to study mental processes that provide explanations for why people behave as they do in the world.

Abstract Culture shapes our basic sensory experience of the world. This is particularly striking in the study of religion and psychosis, where we and others have shown that cultural context determines both the structure and content of hallucination-like events. The cultural shaping of hallucinations may provide a rich case-study for linking cultural learning with emerging prediction-based models of perception.

Abstract Hoerl & McCormack argue that animals cannot represent past situations and subsume animals’ memory-like representations within a model of the world. I suggest calling these memory-like representations as what they are without beating around the bush. I refer to them as event memories and explain how they are different from episodic memory and how they can guide action in animal cognition.
