Can accessible and clear writing styles unlock the power of feminist theory? Can clearly articulated ideas change the world? Some academic feminists think so. They feel that feminist theory should be measured against its ability to contribute to social change. Anything less and their work would look merely academic. Patti Lather's work, judging by her recent article, "Troubling Clarity: The Politics of Accessible Language" (Fall 1996), has been criticized by other feminists precisely because her desire to appeal to intramural readers appears to overshadow her commitment to extramural change. Gaby Weiner (1993), for example, implies that Lather's use of dense prose denies equal access to the interesting ideas that her complicated style of writing contains. Weiner assumes, as do other feminists, that feminist theory in education should be written in a clear and accessible way so that it can reach beyond the classroom to edify the world. Lather responds to this call for clarity by defending her complex writing style and her desire "to be heard," as she writes, "in the halls of High Theory." She justifies her position by pointing out that academic feminists "can't do everything and that the struggle demands contestation on every front" (p. 526).

The article is devoted to the functional potential of international law as an ideological form of law in overcoming the problems associated with migration processes. Currently, migration is an unavoidable objective (and generally positive) phenomenon. However, it gives rise to a number of problems, among which the main problem is the problem of intercultural interaction and the integration of migrants in the recipient society. This process is often a painful process for both the migrant and his new social environment. It is the problem of social integration that often gives rise to the problem of a conflict between the migrant’s legal consciousness and the external legal requirements of a politically organized society. Using the socio-axiological approach, the author considers the conventional mechanism for synthesizing legal values, which are understood as a kind of super cultural meta-values, and comes to the conclusion that many of them are being formed today at the supranational — international level. The author comes to the conclusion that it is in the space of international legal discourse in the framework of international law as a special ideological form of law that basic, minimal, and therefore universal legal values can be formed. These values, as international law develops as an ideological form of law and its influence on national and international integration legal systems grows, people around the world can rely on in developing strategies of behavior, regardless of their habitat. In this, the author sees the solution to a number of important problems related to intercultural interaction, which is caused by the activation of migration processes in the modern world.

In the work, on extensive factual material of the works included in K.G. Paustovsky’s Collected Works, on the example of the lexeme forest functioning, correlating with a wide range of attributes and predicates, a significant fragment of K.G. Paustovsky’s language picture of the world is reconstructed. Considering the importance of the coloristic component for the writer’s worldview, it seems appropriate to identify the specifics of the forest individual author’s color per-ception and visualization. Key findings: 1) the coloristic spectrum used by the writer to visualize the forest is established; 2) the dominants of this spectrum are identified; 3) the functional poten-tial of the color terms is identified; 4) the determinism of the forest coloristic characteristics is de-termined; 5) the correlation of national and individual author’s in color visualization of the forest is established; 6) the specifics of the author’s color style of writing is described, all this in complex contribute to holistic reconstruction of the writer’s coloristic picture of the world. The theoretical basis of the study are the key provisions of linguistics of color, the methodological basis – a set of methods used at different stages of work, including the continuous sampling method, descriptive-analytical, contextual, and quantitative data processing.

The article examines the color and light vocabulary, with the help of which the authors create a figurative system of artistic text. It is a universal tool for creating a figurative and expressive characteristics of a real, ethnocultural space. The use of coloronyms and luxonyms in the historical prose of the authors, their linguistic interpretation indicates the determination of the individual author’s specificity of the perception of color by the writer and the adequate associative connection of color combinations arising from the reader. Creating a masterfully figurative picture or model of a certain ethnic group in the context of a work of art is an important task of every writer who conveys his vision of the world through different semantic groups of words as elements of artistic imagery. This also applies to the corresponding group of vocabulary denoting color and light. The semantic group of words denoting color is used in any work of art: in one the frequency of use of color designations is greater, in the second - less. Selected literary works on historical themes by V. Ipatova and V. Korotkevich are widely saturated with color vocabulary, which deserves a multifaceted analysis. The perception of the artistic word is an individualized phenomenon and is unique in the history of national literature and culture in general. The writers virtually penetrated into ancient events, rites and customs, skillfully described their heroes, national color, ethnic culture, social and spiritual life not only of Belarusians but also of other nations. The authors have made extensive use of the color palette, which involuntarily attracts the attention of readers and affects their figurative imagination. The peculiar style of writing of each author, the lexical and systemic organization of their texts, which organically include coloronyms, give the opportunity to vividly imagine the verbal picture of the world created by the writer. It should be noted that when describing a broad historical panorama, the authors often use color in the lexical microsystem as a means of creating a highly artistic text. Language in works of art of the historical genre acts not only as a means of communication, but also as a carrier of artistic imagery.

Whoever has an inclination toward the philosophy of Merleau-Ponty can sense manifest and multiple ties with the question of metaphor. The study of these linkages invites an examination of the philosopher’s original manner or style of writing, especially in the late texts; it also leads to a reading of what Merleau-Ponty says explicitly about metaphor. Finally, and especially, it promises an evaluation of what his philosophy brings to us for a renewed understanding of metaphoricity. Particularly, we need to understand its natural inscription and its expressive power, its anthropological foundations and its ontological horizons: why metaphor is typical of our carnal being-in-the-world, as well as what it says to us about being human, about the world, and even about Being. These complementary approaches require bringing together the most advanced dimensions of the phenomenology of Merleau-Ponty.

Teesid: Artiklis käsitlen värske pilguga 1991. aastal ajakirjas Science Fiction Studies aset leidnud debatti J. G. Ballardi skandaalse romaani „Crash“ ümber. Toona küsiti, kas selles esitatud tehnoloogiat ja inim­kehi segustava maailma puhul on tegu allegoorilise moraalse hoiatuse või iselaadse perversse realismiga. Täiendan seda debatti poeetilisest küljest – vaatlen põhjalikult romaani näitavat esituslaadi, loetelulisust, tehnilist sõnavara, transtsendentsusele osutavat kujundlikkust ning peategelase-, jutustaja- ja autori-tasandi ühtsust – ning järeldan, et „Crashi“ läbinisti ambivalentne poeetika jätab teose võrdselt avatuks mõlemale tõlgendusvõimalusele.S U M M A R YMy article revisits a well-known discussion about morality in J. G. Ballard's ”Crash“ that surrounded the appearance of Jean Baudrillard's essay of the same name in a special section of Science Fiction Studies (Nov 1991). In this debate N. Katherine Hayles and Vivian Sobchack strongly oppose Baudrillard's claim that there ”is no affectivity behind [the world that Crash depicts]: no psychology, no ambivalence or desire, no libido or death drive“ to Ballard's novel, and, accordingly, no moral point or warning either. In contrast, Hayles and Sobchack argue that the novel warns us about the transformative influence of contemporary technology.To shed new light on this opposition (whose sides I briefly introduce), I undertake a thorough analysis of ”Crash's“ main poetic features: the prevalence of showing over telling, the recurrence of accounts over descrip­tions, the thoroughly technical vocabulary, allusions towards transcendence, and the interpretive anxiety created by a first-person narrator that bears the author's name. I map the contrast between Ballard's disinte­rested style of writing and the apparent affective charge of his characters while showing how this contrast generates a deep ambivalence that enables both moral and morally indifferent interpretations of the novel. The reader is never told what to think about the obscene events that occur and this provokes him to make difficult moral decisions about the novel. The ambivalence of ”Crash's“ poetics has the subversive potential to dislocate and reconsider the so far predominantly marginalized role of psychopathology and perversion in contemporary techno-culture.

Language reflects human conceptualization, human interpretation of the world. This paper aims to observe the relationship between the alay language and the alay speaker’s conceptualization/interpretation of the world. The data are taken from the written verbal interactions of  STAIN Kendari students, who are active on facebook. By using Sapir’s and Whorf’s hypothesis and qualitative descriptive method,  it  is  found that the alay language has close relationship with the alay speaker’s conceptualization/interpretation of the world. alay language style of writing which is randomized, does not have a system, is always abbreviated, and is only known by certain people, reflects the culture of indiscipline, instant, and short-sightedness.

Uno de los méritos más relevantes de la «escritura humanística» es el haberse impuesto en Europa como escritura virtualmente única y, posteriormente, haberse extendido por el resto de los continentes, siendo en América escritura sin rival —dato de sumo interés desde el punto de vista gráfico y cultural—. Pero existen otros motivos que justifican su estudio, como son: a) el hecho de que dicha letra sea la base y origen de la escritura contemporánea, tanto manuscrita como impresa; b) su importancia gráfico-cultural para entender el Renacimiento; c) con relación al proceso gráfico y evolución de la escritura latina, la letra renacentista constituye el retorno a las formas antiguas de los modelos carolinos; d) su introducción coincide con importantes cambios ideológicos y socio-culturales; y e) su difusión y promoción inicial depende más de la voluntaria decisión de un restringido número de centros y fiambres cultos: los humanistas y los profesionales, V. gr. escribanos, notarios, profesores, etc. —cuyos nombres nos son histórica y documentalmente conocidos— que de la masa popular. La estructuración del presente artículo es sencilla y pretende ser clara, con los siguientes apartados: 1) breve introducción exponiendo las peculiaridades de carácter general relativas a la letra humanística; 2) panorámica histórico-cultural del período renacentista; 3) nombres con que se ha designado a esta letra; 4) origen y desarrollo de esta escritura con indicación de sus principales promotores, escuelas y círculos de intelectuales; 5) etapas básicas de su evolución; y 6) tipos de letra humanística y características de cada uno de ellos. Por último, además de una bibliografía básica, dividiéndola por temas, en orden a ilustrar los distintos aspectos tratados, se presentan una serie de reproducciones gráficas con textos en letra humanística.One of the most relevant merits of the «humanistic writing» is the fact that it was imposed in Europe as virtualy the only one writing style and, later on, its extensión to the rest of the world. The fact that in America had no rivals is interesting under the graphic and cultural point of view. But there are other following reasons to justify its study: a) the fact that this writing is the origin and base of the modern writing, both handwritten and printed; b) its graphic and cultural importance to understand the Renaissance; c) with relation to the graphic process and the evolution of the latin writing, the Renaissance style of writing constitutes the return to the ancient ways of the Carolingian models; d) its introduction coincides with important ideologic and socio-cultural changes; and e) its initial promotion and difussion depends most importantly on the decission of a restricted number of institutions and cultivated men: the humanists and a group of professionals like clerks, notarles, professors, etc., both historie and documentary known, and less on the mass. The structure of this article is simple and tries to be clear, containing the following chapters: 1) a brief introduction about the general characteristics of the humanistic writing; 2) the historie and cultural situation of the Renaissance; 3) the different definitions of this type of writing; 4) origin and development of this writing, with the mention of its principal supporters, schools and intellectual groups; 5) its evolution basic steps; and 6) types and characteristics of the humanistic writing. Finally, there is a basic bibliography divided in subjects in order to enlighten the different aspects studied, and a series ofgraphic reproductions texts in humanistic writing.
