The purpose of the article is to consider the causes of the crisis of authenticity of Ukrainian folk art culture in postmodernism and to reveal the features of soft-traditionalism as a strategy of actualization of folk tradition in the postmodern parameters of the chronotope. The methodology consists in using analytical (establishing the causes of the crisis of authenticity of Ukrainian folk art culture in postmodernism), culturological (revealing soft-traditionalism as a strategy of actualization of folk tradition in postmodernism), axiological, and systemic (determining the basic principles of axiosphere of Ukrainian folk art culture approaches. The scientific novelty is to reveal the causes of the crisis of authenticity of Ukrainian folk art culture in the postmodern, due to virtualization, deontologization, destruction of the traditional linear chronotope of historical memory in a virtual nomadic environment. Based on modern achievements of culturological thought, the ambivalent nature of cyberspace as a post-ontological and archaic-ontological phenomenon at the same time is demonstrated, given the connection of the rhizome with the symbolic language of myth, subconscious and chthonic archetypes of culture. The classification of three models of soft-traditionalism as a value-semantic strategy of preservation of tradition in the conditions of postmodernism is developed. Conclusions. The study showed that in the postmodern chronotope, the interconnected processes of deontologization and virtualization cause a crisis of authenticity of Ukrainian folk art culture. The rhizome environment of the Internet leads to the destruction of the classical linear narrative of a fairy tale, myth, traditional narrative: the hierarchical triad of the chronotope is replaced by a chaotic nomadic movement. It is shown that traditional identification has always had a consistent systematic character, inherent in the gradual entry of the individual into the cultural tradition. Today, identity practices are spontaneous and cross-cultural. Nomadism is depicted as a characteristic feature of the Internet environment, which renews the archaic practices of primitive nomads, returning us to the pre-mythological structures of chthonic magic. The common sacred, gender and informational features of traditional culture are revealed, which create favorable preconditions for the development of the latest strategies of actualization of folk tradition in postmodernism. Such a strategy was «soft-traditionalism»/«light traditionalism», developed within the Chicago School of Phenomenology of the Sacred M. Eliade. The essence of soft-traditionalism is revealed, which consists in accentuating the axiological approach to folk art culture as an existential phenomenon of experiencing meanings that can be expressed in modern semiotic language. As an adequate relationship between the language of tradition and the language of its representation, a triadic structure of classification of models of soft-traditionalism is proposed: isolation, interaction, and stylization. It is emphasized that children's folklore, as a universal cultural form, is the most vivid embodiment of the three models of soft-traditionalism.

<div> <div> <div> <p>Abstract </p> <p>The ceaseless connectivity imposed by the internet has made many vulnerable to offensive comments, be it their physical appearance, political beliefs, or religion. Some define hate speech as any kind of personal attack on one’s identity or beliefs. Of the many sites that grant the ability to spread such offensive speech, Twitter has arguably become the primary medium for individuals and groups to spread these hurtful comments. Such comments typically fail to be detected by Twitter’s anti-hate system and can linger online for hours before finally being taken down. Through sentiment analysis, this algorithm is able to distinguish hate speech effectively through the classification of sentiment. </p> </div> </div> </div>

Different types of folklore texts differ from each other by their function. We can distinguish between genres meant to be believed (like legend) and genres recognized in advance as fiction (fairy-tale). At the same time, textual fiction may also have served practical purposes—such as the telling of fairy-tales during the late autumn and early winter for purposes of fertility magic—as used to be the case in the Estonian folk tradition. There are folklore genres that have functioned, among other things, as an accompaniment, comment on, or support to rituals or practices being carried out—for instance, an incantation during a cure, or a lament in death-related procedures, when a person must be separated from his familiar environment. The same textual formulae fulfil different tasks in different genres, which means that they also carry a different meaning. The present paper considers some themes related to the bodily aspect of humanity in various genres of folklore, particularly in songs and laments, as well as in practices related to death and commemoration. As expected, the problems connected with the human body have in these genres undergone transformations of meaning, the understanding and interpretation of which may vary considerably. The mater­ial discussed in the article derives mainly from the Balto-Finnic and north Russian cultural area, partly from the author's own experience during his field trips.

The present research is an attempt to analyse metaphors in English and Ukrainian clothing inscriptions in a comparative aspect. The study focuses on providing a sufficient semantic classification of this versatile figure of speech in the discourse that has never been analysed in terms of metaphors. It deals with English and Ukrainian metaphorical inscriptions on clothing harvested on the Internet over a two-year period (2017-2019). The paper shows that metaphorisation is unevenly typical of English and Ukrainian linguocultural environments. The peculiarities of the source from which the units under analysis were collected allows us to identify seven main vehicle-driven categories of metaphors employed in clothing inscriptions: anthropic, zoomorphic, botanomorphic, creaturemorphic, artefactomorphic, ecomorphic and sensory. The research proves that both English and Ukrainian metaphorical clothing inscriptions have their peculiar sources; moreover, even if metaphors are built on the same or similar images, the focus is usually quite different. This study argues that metaphors on clothing inscriptions can serve as an applicable source to study social priorities, values and tendencies of two different European linguocultural environments. The outcome of the research can be used as an interesting material for sociolinguistics and linguocultural studies.

The article is devoted to the classification of geographical terminology in R. Kipling’s fairy-tale “The Cat That Walked by Himself” in Russian and English. The relevance of the given study is due to the productivity of vocabulary from many sciences in fiction in the framework of various linguistic studies. The authors of the article constructed tables and a diagram. The data obtained in the course of the study were systematized in Russian and English. The frequency of words and concepts was revealed and comments were given.


The advancement of technology and networking allows the use of the Web incredibly important. There is thus an exponential increase in data and information via the Internet. This flow thus is a beneficial field of study which can be defined accurately. Internet traffic detection is a very popular method of identifying information. Although so many methods have been successfully developed for classifying internet traffic, computer training technology among them is most popular. A short study of the classification of Internet traffic on various managed and non-regulated computer teaching systems was undertaken by many researchers. This paper will give various ideas to the other researcher’s and help them to learn a lot about machine learning

Trust and security of microelectronic systems are a major driver for game-changing trends like autonomous driving or the internet of things. These trends are endangered by threats like soft- and hardware attacks or IP tampering -- wherein often hardware reverse engineering (RE) is involved for efficient attack planning. The constant publication of new RE-related scenarios and countermeasures renders a profound rating of these extremely difficult. Researchers and practitioners have no tools or framework which aid a common, consistent classification of these scenarios. In this work, this rating framework is introduced: the common reverse engineering scoring system (CRESS). The framework allows a general classification of published settings and renders them comparable. We introduce three metrics: exploitability, impact, and a timestamp. For these metrics, attributes are defined which allow a granular assessment of RE on the one hand, and attack requirements, consequences, and potential remediation strategies on the other. The system is demonstrated in detail via five case studies and common implications are discussed. We anticipate CRESS to evaluate possible vulnerabilities and to safeguard targets more proactively.

The article analyzes the socio-cultural risks of the modernization of Belarusian society as well as the opportunities to minimize these through communication mechanisms of cultural tradition. Since in the postmodern conditions social transformation takes the form of a “reflexive” modernization, its inherent risks should be considered as closely linked with globalization of culture, in particular, with glocalization, pluralization of social identity, hybridization of cultural traditions, fragmentation of the “lifeworld” and of the nation’s historical memory. The author considers various levels of the structure of cultural tradition, paying special attention to the national mentality as its basic layer. The goal of this paper is to show how the specific features of Belarusian mentality become sources of risk and to reveal the role of cultural traditions in preventing or reducing such risks. Analyzing different strategies for constructing the national identity, the author defines the vulnerabilities involved. It argues that the formation of modern forms of national identity in Belarusian society is due to interaction of at least two identification models: the “strong” and “weak” ones. By analyzing the specifics of the “strong” national identity of Belarusians, the author notes that its poles – the nationalist and the patriotic ones – are largely compatible and do not respond to the most urgent challenges. On the contrary, the model of a “weak” identity has a high capacity to adapt to the conditions of “reflexive” modernization. This model is implemented in the process of constructing a pluralistic civic identity of Belarusians, but it has potential risks, especially in conditions of geopolitical turbulence and external pressure on Belarusian society. A reflexive attitude to the past is considered a possibility to minimize such risks, to avoid or to limit potential adverse impacts of social mobilization or national identity construction. It is emphasized that discussions about the past should be carried out in the form of a dialogue that meets the rules and requirements of communicative rationality.
