In the offered article, a comparative analysis of two performing versions of the wedding ceremonial dance “Hutsulka”, dominant in the Eastern Carpathians region of Ukraine has been made, with outstanding violinists-capellists, which, based on traditions and their own virtuoso style, developed this dance genre due to the accumulation of stable and mobile elements of melo-, rhythm- and form-making, as well as the establishment of aesthetics of regional styles. The material for the study was the audio version of the “Hutsulka” recorded on the basis of the performance of two violinists representing the region of Kosmach- Brusturiv villages tradition – Kyrylo Lyndiuk (“Vityshyn”, 1929–2003) (recorded by prof. Bogdan Lukaniuk in 1991) and Ivan Sokoliuk (born in 1944; Musician's own recording of 2017) – and transcribed by the author of the article. The performance of “Hutsulka” by each violinist is characteristic of common and distinctive features concerning the formation of the variative composition, the thematic material (respectively, 29 and 43 themes of kolomyika, kozachok and voloshka bases), tonality and rhythmic structuring, individual interpretation of ornamentation, which is collectively connected with artistic orientation on certain artistic and performing directions, presented by iconic musicians-predecessors. The formal features of the Hutsulka composition depends on scenery where it is performed (1); the tonality outline determined by established regional tradition (2), and rhythmic outline, by the overall style, varyation technics, updating and ornamentation of rhythmic formulas, characteristic of the personal manner and style of the performer (3). Ornamentation, as the essence of the performing style of any Hutsul musician, in K. “Vityshyn” is characterized by intense interweaving of short melismatic legal groups and non-legal figurations within melodic line and texture. I. Sokoliuk 166 enriches the linear movement with prolonged melismatic groups and rhythm- intonational and figurational turns that decorate it and amplify the expression of dance overall sonority. In performing aesthetics of K. Lyndiuk prevails an acute articulation of melodic expressiveness with accented and often pointed rhythmic patterns that provides representative-temperamental virtuosity. For strategic performance aesthetics of I. Sokoliuk, rich in virtuosic expressiveness, is characterized by choral and transparent ringing articulation in the context of “stratum”-development creation of the whole large-scale virtuoso composition. Each version reveals individual compositional, improvised, techno-performing, emotional as well as aesthetic mind of their creators. All these qualities, formed by both musicians in a single tradition and expressed in related kolomyika and kozachok-voloshka tunes, present the decision of developmental, composite, rhythmic, intonational, articulation, tempo and many other aspects of style, characteristic of folk violinists – soloists and capellists, inherent to each of them, in their performing manner, evident in “Hutsulka” rendering.

The article is focused on the analysis of the Zaryadye Concert Hall building in Moscow in terms of the significance of artificial lighting for the creation of the imagery and perception of this facility within the typology of entertainment music-oriented buildings. Through the example of modern places of entertainment, the author reveals a number of formal features (typological attributes), which, being common to buildings of this function, constitute the basis of their image and become obvious due to the realized lighting concept. The interpretation of these attributes in the interaction of architectural planning and lighting concepts in the Zaryadye Concert Hall is traced. In conclusion, the distinctive features of the building under consideration are determined. At the same time, they reflect a new understanding of concert halls as a building type, the changes related to the overall development of architecture, as well as the elements of the individual architectural language.

Photographs of the German and Soviet pavilions facing off at the Paris International Exposition in 1937 offer an iconic image of the interwar period, and with good reason. This image captures the interwar period's great conflict of ideologies, the international interconnectedness of the age and the aestheticisation of political and ideological conflict in the age of mass media and mass spectacle. [Figure 1] Last but not least, it captures the importance in the 1930s of what we now call cultural diplomacy. Both pavilions – Germany's, in Albert Speer's neo-classical tower bloc crowned with a giant swastika, and the Soviet Union's, housed in Boris Iofan's forward-thrusting structure topped by Vera Mukhina's monumental sculptural group – represented the outcome of a large-scale collaboration between political leaders and architects, artists, intellectuals and graphic and industrial designers seeking to present their country to foreign visitors in a manner designed to advance the country's interests in the international arena. Each pavilion, that is, made an outreach that was diplomatic – in the sense that it sought to mediate between distinct polities – using means that were cultural – in the sense that they deployed refined aesthetic practices (like the arts and architecture) and in the sense that they highlighted the distinctive features, or ‘culture’, of a particular group (like the German nation or the Soviet state).

AbstractPoly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) is a nuclear enzyme involved in DNA repair and transcription regulation, among other processes. Malignant transformations, tumor progression, the onset of some neuropathies and other disorders have been linked to misregulation of PARP-1 activity. Despite intensive studies during the last few decades, the role of PARP-1 in transcription regulation is still not well understood. In this study, a transcriptomic analysis in Drosophila melanogaster third instar larvae was carried out. A total of 602 genes were identified, showing large-scale changes in their expression levels in the absence of PARP-1 in vivo. Among these genes, several functional gene groups were present, including transcription factors and cytochrome family members. The transcription levels of genes from the same functional group were affected by the absence of PARP-1 in a similar manner. In the absence of PARP-1, all misregulated genes coding for transcription factors were downregulated, whereas all genes coding for members of the cytochrome P450 family were upregulated. The cytochrome P450 proteins contain heme as a cofactor and are involved in oxidoreduction. Significant changes were also observed in the expression of several mobile elements in the absence of PARP-1, suggesting that PARP-1 may be involved in regulating the expression of mobile elements.

Kольцевидные фибулы – довольно распространенная находка европейского средневековья. Они состоят из рамы, которая может быть разной формы, и иглы, которая может вращаться вокруг своей оси, но не может свободно скользить по раме. Кольцевидные фибулы делались разных форм и размеров, из благородных и неблагородных металлов, и поэтому качество их художественной обработки также различалось. Они пользовались особенной популярностью в XIII и XIV вв. Их находили в кладах, поселениях, фортах и могилах (в области таза и живота), а также можно увидеть, как они прикрепляют верхние части одежды на многих статуях этого периода. В работе на основе типологии и сравнений, а также с учетом археологических материалов и определенных форм рассматриваются различные функции кольцевидных фибул в составе костюмов. Особое внимание в работе уделяется апотропеической магии, связанной с кольцевидными фибулами, и рассматривается многослойность символики, которую можно извлечь из надписей на определенных фибулах. Ring-shaped fibulae are common finds related to the European Middle Ages. The fibula consists of a loop that has a variety of shapes and a pin that turns around its axis but cannot slide freely across the fibula body. There are ring-shaped fibulae of various forms and sizes made from precious and non-precious metals; quality of metalwork art also varies. Fibulae were especially popular in the 13th and 14th centuries. Fibulae also originate from treasure hoards, settlements, fortresses and graves; they were often depicted on the statues of the said period representing people who wore outer clothes. In graves fibulae could be placed near the pelvis or stomach. Typological and comparative analysis has been carried out taking into account the material fibulae are made of, and distinctive features of their shape. Various functions of ring-shaped fibulae as dress accessories are reviewed. Archaeological finds demonstrate a larger variety of functions associated with ring-shaped fibulae than the functions identified based on depictions on medieval statues. A stress is made on apotropaic meaning of ring-shaped fibulae; the author notes a multilayered nature of their symbolism based on inscriptions on some fibulae. It is emphasized that the discussed fibulae reflect developed character of medieval people’s world outlook and beliefs.

The article examines the provisions of legislation on the sanitary and epidemiological welfare of the population, regulating the restrictions of negative physical impact on the environment. The article considers the provisions of regional legislation aimed at regulating the issues of ensuring the peace and quiet of citizens. The authors note that the Code of administrative offences of the Russian Federation does not contain a direct ban on actions that violate the peace and quiet of citizens at night, but the corresponding restrictions apply in almost every subject of the Russian Federation. The article analyzes the legal regulation of relations connected with ensuring peace and quiet in a number of subjects of the Russian Federation. Regional acts determine specific prohibited actions that are subject to administrative liability in the form of a fine. The article highlights common and distinctive features of the legislation of the subjects of the Russian Federation in the field of acoustic impact. It is concluded that it is necessary to develop a unified approach to ensuring silence in the Russian Federation.

An analysis of the teacher language used in physical education lessons reveals the influence of many discourses that are current in our culture, including those related to gender. The subtle meanings carried in the linguistic choices made by teachers provide one framework through which girls and boys come to form particular relationships with their bodies. These relationships are culturally constructed and influence the desire to be active and the choice of activities. The process of gender production can be made visible by a comparative analysis of the lexico-grammatical structure of texts from two gymnastic lessons using the systemic functional model of linguistics developed by Michael Halliday (1978, 1985). The most distinctive features that have emerged from the analysis have been the different linguistic choices made by male and female teachers in the grammatical realization of interpersonal meanings. These differences contribute to the construction of a social order for the participants in physical education lessons that mirrors the gender relations in the culture of the larger society. Revealing the way the language works provides for the possibility of different linguistic choices—choices that may constitute a different social reality.
