The information scope of the last decade has been realized in the integration of various ways of communication into interactive information networks. Combining texts, images, symbols and sounds in one system in a global network and providing accessible and inexpensive access, dramatically changes the nature of social communication. The history of journalism has its stages of development: from ancient to modern forms, from signs to modern information technologies. If the previous centuries are properly described and analyzed by the researchers, the new means of communication require more study. The proposed study attempts to analyze blogs as new means in modern communication. Blogging is somewhat different from journalism in its predominant communicative function, which in traditional media is only available live on radio and television, but information is often censored by a moderator, an editor, who determines who to broadcast and when to do it. The study focuses on whether a blog is a form of new journalism or a new journalistic genre that has entered mass communication. The article as an applied aspect considers ten most popular Ukrainian bloggers on Instagram based on the results of the analysis of online publications. It is concluded that the blogs are powerful producers of information and, as a consequence, correlators of network information flows. Blogging and journalism are two types of mass information and communication activities, between which there are common and different, but both types have a moral responsibility for the content. The websites and social networks systematically provide rankings of the most popular blogs. In such cases, the authors, their age, number of subscribers, topics and a short history of the author are shown, and details of the private life of bloggers are usually displayed. It attracts the attention of the consumer of information.

Scholarship on the early modern era in Brazil has been booming since the 1980s. This trend has been influenced theoretically by developments in the social sciences and by the cultural turn in history, by new information technologies of digitalization and the Internet, and by a series of centenaries that have generated institutional support for publications, conferences, and research. This article identifies a number of major themes and questions that have organized much of this historical production, notes the major writings that have moved the field in new directions, and discusses the shifts in emphasis in historical inquiry by concentrating on some of the works that have been seminal in the study of colonial Brazil. Five themes or trends are highlighted: the social history of the major groups within the colony (merchants, cane farmers and sugar barons, slaves, and the free population of color); a complementary cultural approach that has added attention to issues such as private life, public rituals, and subaltern agency; Afro-Brazilian life and culture; a surprisingly rich literature on the indigenous population; and studies of colonial governance.

Literary reminiscences are often used in journalistic texts. They can be implemented into journalistic materials in various forms: it may be a reference to a literary work, characters, other images, or citation of the text. Literary reminiscences are used by the authors of journalistic materials primarily to enhance the emotivity and expressiveness of the text. However, along with this, they also perform an important function of culture transferring. A correlation of literary reminiscences with genres has been traced and it is noted that such technique is most often found in the journalistic genres of art and journalism, in particular in essays, blogs and authors’ columns. The mention of writers’ names, famous characters or the use of fragments of literary works is connected with the functional features of these journalistic genres. The author of a journalistic text, introducing literary reminiscences to it, appeals to the reader’s basic knowledge of literature and, consequently, makes him remember something known, or refer to reference sources to find out the unknown. Literary reminiscences not only update the basic knowledge of the fiction reader, but also become a powerful stimulus for their expansion. Thus, propaganda and popularization of reading are taking place. In the process of research, in addition to general scientific methods, a descriptive and comparative methods have been used. The scientific novelty of the study is that literary reminiscences in journalistic texts are considered in the aspect of reading popularization for the first time. The study may complement the curricula of the courses “Theory and History of Journalism”, “Mass Communication and Information”, “Practical Stylistics”, “Publicism”, “Theory of Social Communications” in the aspect of the role of media in the popularization of reading. Prospect for the further research is a more detailed analysis of literary reminiscences in the media texts, in particular, the search for references to works of Ukrainian literature.

This article discusses Billy Wilder's 1970 film The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes, which, though not enthusiastically received by audiences at the time, has subsequently become a work highly valued by critics and cineastes. Radically cut from its original four-part structure by the studio, it has come to be perceived as a film about loss. This relates both to its themes – suppressed love, the vanished world of Holmes and Watson – and to the history of the film itself, whose missing episodes exist only in fragmentary form. The first part of the essay looks at the ways in which the film constructs an image of Sherlock Holmes (played by Robert Stephen), with a focus on the question of his sexuality, while the second part turns to the ways in which the film became an ‘obsession’ for one writer in particular, the novelist Jonathan Coe.

The subject of this research is the problems emerging in the process of establishment and development of the Institution of personal data protection in the Russian Federation. Special attention is turned to the comparison of Soviet and Western models of protection of private life and personal data. The authors used interdisciplinary approach, as comprehensive and coherent understanding of socio-legal institution of personal data protection in the Russian Federation is only possible in inseparable connection with examination of peculiarities of the key historical stages in legal regulation of private life of the citizen. After dissolution of the Soviet political and legal system, the primary task of Russian law consisted in development and legal formalization of the institution of protection of human and civil rights and freedoms, first and foremost by means of restricting invasion of privacy by the state and enjoyment of personal freedom. It is concluded that the peculiarities of development of the new Russian political and legal model significantly impacted the formation of the institution of personal data protection in the Russian Federation. The authors believe that the Russian legislator and competent government branches are not always capable to manage the entire information flow of personal data; therefore, one of the priority tasks in modern Russian society is the permanent analysis and constant monitoring of the development of information technologies.

At the present stage, Kazakh musical culture is heterogeneous. It represents traditions coexisting at the same time and interacting with each other: Kazakh ethnic and newly established composer school (tradition). Examining changes in cultural landscapes of the 20th century I reveal the peculiarities of interaction and dialogue between two kinds of culture: ethnic and global (endogenous and exogenous). The procedures include the complex study of the history of Kazakh culture in the 20th century, stylistic analysis of traditional and composer’s music, semiotic approach to intercultural interaction, as far as a comparative analysis of oral and written music of 19th and 20th centuries. On one hand, dramatic changes in the structure of music culture were caused by external objective reasons: new industrial and postindustrial civilization phases (urbanization and information technologies); intensification of interaction with western (mainly Russian) cultures, etc. On the other hand, some changes were inspired by inner factors: diverse development of local song and kui (dombyra piece) traditions; Soviet cultural policy. As a result new type (or layer) of national culture – Kazakh composers’ music – appeared. It was connected with the formation of a national style based on transcriptions and borrowing. Traditional music was influenced by new social institutions (philharmonic halls, theatres, radio, conservatoire) that caused changes in the creative process (decrease of oral transmission, lack of traditional social context) as well as in the style (virtuoso performance, new genres of songs).
