В статье рассматривается придворная музыкальная культура Испании рубежа XV-XVI веков, структура, функции (политические и статусные), а также репертуар придворной капеллы, которая формировалась и выстраивалась под влиянием капелл бургундских герцогов. Среди композиторов, создававших репертуар капеллы, выделяется Франсиско Пеньялоса, успешно ассимилировавший и переработавший франко-фламандский полифонический стиль. Область светского музицирования связана с полифонической песней (вильянсико, романс и другие жанры), представленной в рукописных сборниках (Cancionero). Особое внимание уделяется новациям музыкально-поэтического стиля Хуана дель Энсины, осуществлявшимся в русле европейской гуманистической традиции. В работе применяются методы исторического исследования, основывающиеся на анализе документальных источников (хроник, документов церковных капитулов и т. д.), позволяющих воссоздать относительно достоверную картину. Новизна работы определяется не только ее материалом, практически неизвестным в русскоязычной литературе, но и ракурсом рассмотрения, акцентирующим ведущую роль властных структур (аристократического двора) в развитии музыкального искусства и укреплении авторитета композитора. The article discusses the court musical culture of Spain at the turn of the 15th16th centuries, its structure, functions (political and status), as well as the repertoire of the court chapel, which was formed and built under the influence of the chapels of the Burgundian dukes. Among the composers who created the choirs repertoire is Francisco Pealosa, who successfully assimilated and reworked the Franco-Flemish polyphonic style. The field of secular music is connected with polyphonic song (villanсiсo, romance, etc.), presented in manuscript collections (Cancionero). Particular attention is paid to the innovations of the musical-poetic style of Juan del Encina, carried out in line with the European humanistic tradition. The author of the article uses the methods of historical research based on the analysis of documentary sources (chronicles, documents of church chapters, etc.), allowing to recreate a relatively reliable picture. The novelty of the work is determined not only by its material, unknown in Russian-language literature, but also by the consideration angle taken, emphasizing the leading role of power structures (the aristocratic court) in the development of musical art and strengthening the authority of the artist.

This article aims to determine the meaning of metaphor for revealing the metaphysical foundations of aesthetics, as well as to analyze the methods reflected in the philosophy of Kant, Husserl, Heidegger, Derrida, and Mamardashvili. Their works clarify the structure of the metaphysical metaphor and its aesthetic matrix. Since old times, the aesthetic thought viewed the concept of the language of metaphor with its dual ambiguity, various metaphorical figures as the structures internally connected with the categorical reflection on the system of art; and the metaphor itself was considered as the form of semantic perception and creation of the artistic landscape. Revealing the place of aesthetics within the structure of metaphysics, the author views the aesthetic role of the metaphorical within metaphysics, complexity of interrelation between the concept of metaphor and fundamental metaphysical category of existence. The world scientific literature features numerous works that view metaphor as a rhetorical figure. However, the research of metaphysical metaphor is rare. This article is first within the Russian-language literature to outline the approaches towards the aesthetic comprehension of metaphysical metaphor, as they are reflected in the philosophy of Heidegger and Derrida. They reveal intuition of the metaphor as metaphysics, describe the representation of metaphysical metaphor of light, interpret the transcendental ego as metaphor, and elucidate the concept of the substance of metaphor. Special attention is given to the aesthetic-metaphysical interpretations of metaphor in the modern Russian philosophy.

Statement of the problem. The works of Serhii Petrovich Turnieiev – Honoured Artist, composer, professor – have made a significant contribution to the musical culture of Ukraine. His creativity attracts the attention of musicologists from different generations and needs more extensive study. The novelty of the research. The article makes up for the shortage of scientific works covering the orchestral style of S. Turnieiev in connection with his compositional thinking. The work highlights the leading role of orchestration – an important expressive and logical-constructive tool in the music of the twentieth century – in organizing the artistic integrity of the Symphonic Frescoes “Taras Bulba”. Literature review. The theoretical basis of the article is the work on the study of orchestration and orchestral style (Kars, 1990; Blagodatov, 1963; Shabunova, 2008; Korobetskaya, 2011, Halmrast, 2000; Hundsnes, 2010;. McAdams 2019; Monel, 2012; Otto, 1983; Rakochi, 2020; Urniecius, 2018; Wallmark, 2019). In addition, the paper refers to the articles defining the term “Symphonic frescoes” (Tikha, 2009; Tishchik, 2019; Belova, 2020). The aim of the article is to study Symphonic Frescoes “Taras Bulba” by S. Turnieiev from the standpoint of orchestral style. The article uses analytical, genre, style, historical, structural-functional, comparative, systematic generalization methods of research. Results and conclusions. The orchestration of Symphonic Frescoes “Taras Bulba” by S. Turnieiev is characterized by: 1) a variety of orchestral texture as a supplier of semantics, which gives the orchestration semantic and logical-constructive functions in organizing a large-scale work; 2) a combination of functional and coloristic orchestration; 3) orchestral flavor, sound, picturesqueness; 4) large strokes, avoidance of details, which is motivated by the genre of the work. The orchestration analysis of S. Turnieiev’s large-scale symphonic work “Taras Bulba” made it possible to draw the following conclusions regarding his orchestral style: 1) the composer’s orchestration is determined by the principles of his compositional thinking and aesthetic ideas; 2) the orchestration of the work is influenced by the genre of the work and the individual genre decision; 3) the composer chooses the orchestral ensemble сonsidering the practicality of the performance and the concept of the work; 4) there is an interpenetration of functional and coloristic orchestration in accordance with synthetic composer’s thinking. The composer operates with different types of texture, which has an important form-making and dramatic role, and applies traditional and innovative techniques.

This article presents the results of a study of the Mari numeral phrases in terms of the influence of the Russian language. The aim of this work is to trace the role of Russian borrowings in the formation of Mari numeral phrases, primarily in the expression of their components, and to reveal other changes that have arisen under the influence of similar phrases and structures of the Russian language. The study was conducted on the basis of the lexical card index of the MarNIIYALI (Mari Scientific Research Institute of Language, Literature and History), which is based on written sources of the meadow-eastern literary norm, namely, its electronic part in the amount of about one thousand author's sheets. During the collection and analysis of material, elements and techniques of the following research methods were applied: descriptive and analytical (observation with the identification of the studied facts in sources, their generalization, interpretation and classification, description), comparative (regular comparison of Mari models with Russian ones for identity and non-identity), comparative-historical (in other cases, indications of the origin of the words), quantitative (counting models of various groups containing Russianisms). According to the results of the research, Russian borrowings may play a role of a head word (3 units in 4 models) and a dependent component (mainly substantive case forms and postpositional constructions, numerals, as well as some pronouns and adverbs of degree in 14 models). 3 models with cardinal numbers as a head very rarely can be represented by phrases with Russianisms in both components. As a result the syntactic units in some models and the models of numeral phrases themselves were replenished, the last ones by 3 units. Also the shifts in the forms of grammatical number of dependent nouns in some models appeared.

Decolonisation in South and Southeast Asia after 1945 was a period of intense negotiations over the role of religion in postcolonial society. For many witnesses in the religious field, religion had to be defended against primarily three threats: the changing power structures of imperial decline; communism; and secular nationalism. In this chapter I examine in how far the (Christian) concept of apologetics is suitable for world-historical research. My argument is that apologetics can indeed broaden our conceptual and empirical understanding of the twentieth century and deepen our understanding of religion and decolonisation. To do so, I propose to distinguish between three different forms of apologetics in word and deed: transnational forms of apologetics (illustrated by the theologies and institutional practices of the Church Missionary Society), national-majoritarian apologetics (discussed with the example of the Hindu-nationalist RSS in post-Partition India), and national-adaptive apologetics (as practices by Muhammadiyah in early-postcolonial Indonesia).

The paper, following the modern theory of terminography, considers the formation and composition of the terminology of the Sakha language selection and quality of vocabulary dictionaries, and their composition (inventory and interpretation) parameters. Yakut terminography has dictionaries for all branches of knowledge: nine - in natural sciences, six - in social (humanitarian) sciences, one - in technical sciences, with there being also four macro-compositional (multi-field) dictionaries. The authors provide a classification analysis of terminological dictionaries for typologies and compositional parameters. According to compositional parameters, there are multi-field and single-field dictionaries in Sakha terminology. An inventory of terms is a collection and description of all words-terms belonging to the selected field of knowledge or its thematic fragment. Inventory dictionaries are Russian-Sakha, once again confirming the leading role of the Russian terminological school. New concepts with their designations come to us through the Russian language. The defining type includes dictionaries with the head vocabulary provided with definitions (brief interpretations). The definition should be accurate, concise, but sufficient and should not contain redundant information. The definition is an excellent technique for highlighting the terminological meaning of a polysemantic word and a word with an undifferentiated meaning. With terminological dictionaries intersecting in some way, the faceted principle of dividing them was subsequently adopted. Faceted typology is convenient for sorting varieties of dictionaries by their parallel bases. Sakha terminography, comprising multi-field and mixed dictionaries, needs a faceted typology. Faceted typology involves the identification of specific lexicographic parameters serving as the basis for the classification of dictionaries.

The paper deals with the problem of the establishment of capitalism in Russia in the late 19 - early 20th centuries. Using a wide array of historical research and documents the author argues that the thesis on the advanced state of capitalism in Russia in the beginning of the 20th century does not stand up to historical scrutiny, and the role of the famous Emancipation reform of 1861 appears to be of limited importance.

The purpose and tasks of the work are to analyze the contemporary Ukrainian mass culture in terms of its value and humanistic components, as well as the importance of cultural studies and Ukrainian studies in educational disciplines for the formation of a holistic worldview of modern youth.Analysis of research and publications. Scientists repeatedly turned to the problems of the role of spirituality in the formation of society and its culture. This problem is highlighted in the publications by O. Losev, V. Lytvyn, D. Likhachev, S. Avierintsev, M. Zakovych, I. Stepanenko and E. Kostyshyn.Experts see the main negative impact of mass culture on the quality approach, which determines mass culture through the market, because mass culture, from our point of view, is everything that is sold and used in mass demand.One of the most interesting studies on this issue was the work by the representatives of Frankfurt School M. Horkheimer and T. Adorno «Dialectics of Enlightenment» (1947), devoted to a detailed analysis of mass culture. Propaganda at all socio-cultural levels in the form is similar in both totalitarian and democratic countries. It is connected, according to the authors, with the direction of European enlightenment. The tendency to unify people is a manifestation of the influence of mass culture, from cinema to pop. Mass culture is a phenomenon whose existence is associated with commerce (accumulation in any form – this is the main feature of education), in general, the fact that it exists in this form is related to the direction of the history of civilization.Modern mass culture, with its externally attractive and easily assimilated ideas and symbols, appealing to the trends of modern fashion, becomes a standard of prestigious consumption, does not require intense reflection, allows you to relax, distract, not teach, but entertains, preaches hedonism as the main spiritual value. And as a consequence, there are socio-cultural risks: an active rejection of other people, which leads to the formation of indifference; cruelty as a character trait; increase of violent and mercenary crime; increase in the number of alcohol and drug addicts; anti-patriotism; indifference to the values of the family and as a result of social orphanhood and prostitution.Conclusions, perspectives of research. Thus, we can conclude that modern Ukrainian education is predominantly formed by the values of mass culture. Namely, according to the «Dialectic» by Horkheimer and Adorno, «semi-enlightenment becomes an objective spirit» of our modern society.It is concluded that only high-quality education can create the opposite of the onset of mass culture and the destruction of spirituality in our society. It is proved that only by realizing the importance of cultivating disciplines in the educational process and the spiritual upbringing of the nation, through educational reforms, humanitarian knowledge will gradually return to student audiences.Formation of youth occurs under the influence of social environment, culture, education and self-education. The optimal combination of these factors determines both the process of socialization itself and how successful it will be. In this context, one can see the leading role of education and upbringing. It turns out that the main task of modern education is to spread its influence on the development of spiritual culture of the individual, which eventually becomes a solid foundation for the formation of the individual. Such a subject requires both philosophical and humanitarian approaches in further integrated interdisciplinary research, since the availability of such research will provide the theoretical foundation for truly modern educational and personal development.

SUMMARY The recent extensive literature on exploration and the resulting scientific advances has failed to highlight the contribution of Austrian enterprise to the study of natural history. The leading role of Joseph II among the neutral powers which assumed the carrying trade of the belligerents during the American War of Independence, furthered the development of collections for the Schönbrunn Park and Gardens which had been set up on scientific principles by his parents. On the conclusion of peace, Joseph entrusted to Professor Maerter a world-encompassing mission in the course of which the Chief Gardener Franz Boos and his assistant Georg Scholl travelled to South Africa to collect plants and animals. Boos pursued the mission to Isle de France and Bourbon (Mauritius and Reunion), conveyed by the then unknown Nicolas Baudin. He worked at the Jardin du Roi, Pamplemousses, with Nicolas Cere, or at Palma with Joseph Francois Charpentier de Cossigny. The linkage of Austrian and French horticultural expertise created a situation fraught with opportunities which were to lead Baudin to the forefront of exploration and scientific research as the century closed in the upheaval of the Revolutionary Wars.
