Stylistic Device

This article deals with the English proverbs containing the concept of woman. The aim of the research was to analyse the means of expression used to portray the woman in her various social roles, to describe her personal traits and to reveal the attitude towards women in the society. The novelty of this paper lies in systematizing the stylistic devices used in proverbs about women and discovering a device that has not been included in the existing classifications of expressive means. In the course of the research, the authors selected English proverbs with the lexeme woman and analysed them from the point of view of stylistics. The fact that such proverbs are highly numerous indicates the importance of gender relations in a society, while their subject matter demonstrates an arrogant and often dismissive attitude towards women in a world dominated by men. The stylistic analysis found metaphor, simile and epithet to be the most productive lexical devices in creating a negative image of women, while parallelism, antithesis and repetition seem to be the most frequent syntactic devices serving to emphasize the connotations of the proverbs. Irony and paradox render the sarcastic, condescending attitude towards women; this function is also performed by intentionally illogical sequences of homogeneous parts of the sentence, when women are placed on a par with animals, inanimate objects, and the elements (the stylistic device for the first time described by the authors). It should be noted that the characteristic features of proverbs as a genre of folk art, i.e. rhythmic, intonational, and phonetic, are inherent in English proverbs about women as well. The material obtained can be used in linguistics courses at universities.

The article is devoted to the study of the formation of the coordination function of the state at the stage of the Ukrainian revolution of 1917-1921. During this time, the Central Rada and the last Hetman of Ukraine Pavlo Skoropadskyi managed to prove themselves the most in the field of state building. The author's attention is focused on their role in the formation of the coordination function of the state in Ukraine. It was found that from the point of view of formation and reform of the state mechanism (including the coordination function of the state), the Ukrainian revolution of 1917-1921 conditionally includes two periods: the period of the Central Rada and the period of Hetman P. Skoropadsky. In the context of state formation, the period of the Central Rada was marked, first of all, by the adoption of the four Universals and the proclamation of the Ukrainian People's Republic. During the activity of P. Skoropadsky's government in Ukraine the relations of the state with citizens were settled for the first time (by passing the law on citizenship), the process of formation of the institute of civil service was started. The author argues that from the point of view of forming the coordination function of the state, it is inappropriate to distinguish between the periods of the Central Rada and the Hetmanate of Pavel Skoropadsky. The characteristic features of the period of the Ukrainian revolution of 1917-1921 as a stage of development of administrative and legal regulation of the coordination function of the state are singled out, which include: Ukrainization of elements of the state apparatus; lack of clear demarcation of these elements; uncertainty of coordination objects; lack of proper administrative and legal basis for the coordination function of the state, it whas the declarative of plans for its creation. It is concluded that the conclusion that it is not expedient to distinguish the periods of the Central Rada and the Hetmanate of Pavlo Skoropadsky as separate stages of development of administrative and legal regulation of the coordination function of the state. During this period, the state was actively reformed, however, perhaps due to its short duration, and perhaps for other objective and subjective reasons, no cardinal achievements in the context of the coordination function of the state were observed. Moreover, the stage of the Ukrainian State is characterized by the same problems as the period of the Ukrainian People's Republic.

В статье на материале произведений С. А. Бритаева, осетинского писателя, сказоч- ника, переводчика, публициста, исследуются основные тенденции развития осетинской детской литературы середины XX в. как подсистемы осетинской художественной словес- ности в целом. Дан комплексный анализ авторских сказок писателя, специфика, «особая художественность» которых заключается в их синтетической природе; через призму ди- алога индивидуально-авторского начала и традиционных сказочных жанрообразующих элементов в различных аспектах (жанровый синтез, система образов, стилистические особенности, авторская позиция) раскрывается художественный мир писателя. С опо- рой на архивные источники впервые введены в научный оборот произведения малой прозы автора, в том числе ряд неопубликованных рассказов. На основе исследования своеобразия творчества автора прослежены основные тенденции и характерные черты развития осе- тинской детской литературы указанного периода, как то: синтез фольклорных средств с собственно литературными (описания, детализация действия, психологизм, пластич- ность изображения), тенденция к переходу от фольклорных типов-обобщений к созданию индивидуализированных характеров; от народно-сказовой формы повествования и тра- диционных способов передачи коллективной точки зрения на мир к усилению творческого самовыражения, своеобразию проявления авторской позиции. The article studies the main courses of evolution of Ossetic children’s literature of the middle of the XX th century as a subsystem of the Ossetic artistic literature in general, namely in the books of S. A. Britaev, the Ossetic writer, storyteller, translator, and publicist. Complex analysis of the author’s fairy tales is given, specifics, «especial artistry» of which lies in their synthetic nature; through the prism of the dialogue of the individual author’s standpoint and the traditional fairy genre-forming elements in various aspects (genre synthesis system of images, stylistic features, and the author’s viewpoint) reveals the artistic world of S. Britaev. The author’s short prose works, including a number of unpublished stories, have been introduced into scientific discourse for the first time on the basis of the archival sources. The main tendencies and characteristic features of the development of this period’s Ossetic children’s literature are traced in researching the originality of the author’s works, such as the synthesis of folklore means with literary ones proper (descriptions, action detailing, psychologism, image plasticity), tendency to change from folklore types-generalizations to creation of individualized characters; from the folk-fantastic forms of narration and traditional ways of transferring the collective point of view of the world to the strengthening of creative self-expression, the originality of the author’s positions.

The purpose of this article is process of analyzing in reference to concert capriccio by C. Munier for mandolin with piano («Bizzarria», op. 201, Spanish сapriccio, op. 276) from the point of view of their genre specificity. Methodology. The research is based on the historical approach, which determines the specifics of the genre of Capriccio in the music of the late 19th and early 20th centuries and in the work of C. Munier; the computational and analytical methods used to identify the peculiarities of the formulation and the performing interpretation of the original concert pianos for mandolins with piano that, according to the genre orientation (according to the composerʼs remarks), are defined as capriccio. Scientific novelty. The creation of Florentine composer,61mandolinist-vertuoso and pedagog C. Munier, which made about 300 compositions, is exponential for represented scientific vector. Concert works by C. Munier for mandolin and piano, created in the capriccio genre, were not yet considered in the art of the outdoors, as the creativity and composer’s style of the famous mandolinist. Conclusions. Thus, appealing to capriccio by С. Munier, which created only two works, embodied in them virtually all the evolutionary stages of the development of genre. In his opus of this genre there are a vocal, inherent in capriccio of the 17th century solo presentation, virtuosity, originality, which were embodied in the works of 17th – 18th centuries and the national color of the 19th century is clearly expressed. Thus, the Spanish capriccio is a kind of «musical encyclopedia» of national dance, which features are characteristic features of bolero, tarantella, habanera, and so forth. The originality of opus number 201 – «Bizzarria», is embodied in the parameters of shaping (expanded cadence of the soloist in the beginning) and emphasized virtuosity, which is realized in a wide register range, a variety of technical elements.

AbstractAlthough visual culture of the 21th century increasingly focuses on representation of death and dying, contemporary discourses still lack a language of death adequate to the event shown by pictures and visual images from an outside point of view. Following this observation, this article suggests a re-reading of 20th century author Elias Canetti. His lifelong notes have been edited and published posthumously for the first time in 2014. Thanks to this edition Canetti's short texts and aphorisms can be focused as a textual laboratory in which he tries to model a language of death on experimental practices of natural sciences. The miniature series of experiments address the problem of death, not representable in discourses of cultural studies, system theory or history of knowledge, and in doing so, Canetti creates liminal texts at the margins of western concepts of (human) life, science and established textual form.

Al-Qusayr is located 40 km south of modern al-Wajh, roughly 7 km from the eastern Red Sea shore. This site is known since the mid-19th century, when the explorer R. Burton described it for the first time, in particular the remains of a monumental building so-called al-Qasr. In March 2016, a new survey of the site was undertaken by the al-‘Ula–al-Wajh Survey Project. This survey focused not only on al-Qasr but also on the surrounding site corresponding to the ancient settlement. A surface collection of pottery sherds revealed a striking combination of Mediterranean and Egyptian imports on one hand, and of Nabataean productions on the other hand. This material is particularly homogeneous on the chronological point of view, suggesting a rather limited occupation period for the site. Attesting contacts between Mediterranean merchants, Roman Egypt and the Nabataean kingdom, these new data allow a complete reassessment of the importance of this locality in the Red Sea trade routes during antiquity.

The article summarizes the key points in the development of the metadialogue phenomenon from a linguistic point of view. Some stages of the development of this concept and the difficulties associated with its structuring are covered. The main research findings of modern foreign and domestic experts on its study are considered. Some characteristics of the subject of the research from the standpoint of various pragmatic installations are given. On the basis of the dynamic structure of the metadialogue development, certain principles of semantic relations connected with the dialectical nature of human cognition are presented. Excursion into the history and evolution of the concept is presented. Several types of formulation of the subject matter are given. In accordance with the goal of speech exposure, internal problems of the development of metadialogue are highlighted and the critical points related to solving these problems are described. The rules of metadialogue flow are explained at the level of steps, the success/failure of which directly affects the final result of communication. The prospects of development of the concept research in accordance with various types of discourse are indicated.

Fourier transform spectra of the ν2 band of PH3 have been remeasured with 0.0045 cm-1 resolution. Ground state combination differences from these data have been fitted simultaneously with the microwave and submillimeterwave data to determine the ground state spectroscopical parameters of PH3 including the parameters of the Δk = ± 3n interactions. The correlation between the latter parameters has been discussed from the point of view of the existence of two equivalent effective rotational operators which are related by a unitary transformation. The ΔJ = 0, +1, ΔK = 0 (A1 ↔ A2, E ↔ E) rotational transitions in the ν2 and ν4 states have been measured for the first time by using a microwave spectrometer and a radiofrequency spectrometer with acoustic detection.

Authors in this contribution focus on issue of subject matter structure creation by the teacher as an important psycho-didactic domain of education process and how does a student perceive this structure. The aim of the teacher is not only to impart the knowledge to students but also to show them and teach them possible ways of how to understand the subject matter better and how to get to the fundamentals of it. Based on the structure of subject matter created by the teacher a student creates cognitive frames which become basis for his further learning. We pay attention to definition of epistemology of subject matter structure, questions of psycho-didactic approach to teaching, creating structure of subject matter and how does the teacher work with the text. Empirical part of the contribution investigates teachers' preferences of subject matter structure and statistically describes subjective perception of level of understanding of the subject matter by a student influenced by the particular subject matter structure realized by the teacher.

AbstractA conulariid preserved in three dimensions from Ordovician fluvioglacial erratics of the Northern European Lowlands (North German Plain) is described under open nomenclature. It is assigned to the genus Conularia with similarities to Baltoscandian conulariids. The lithology of the erratic boulder and fauna contained in it provide important information on the origin and transport direction of the sediment preserved in a kame from the Saalian glaciation. This paper deals with the site of origin of the boulder in Baltoscandia analysing the comprised palaeofauna, from a palaeostratigraphic and palaeogeographic point of view, from its deposition in Ordovician times until its arrival at its current location in the Late Pleistocene. It also reveals for the first time the internal structure of the conulariid aperture.

AbstractAblowitz–Kaup–Newell–Segur (AKNS) linear spectral problem gives birth to many important nonlinear mathematical physics equations including nonlocal ones. This paper derives two fractional order AKNS hierarchies which have not been reported in the literature by equipping the AKNS spectral problem and its adjoint equations with local fractional order partial derivative for the first time. One is the space-time fractional order isospectral AKNS (stfisAKNS) hierarchy, three reductions of which generate the fractional order local and nonlocal nonlinear Schrödinger (flnNLS) and modified Kortweg–de Vries (fmKdV) hierarchies as well as reverse-t NLS (frtNLS) hierarchy, and the other is the time-fractional order non-isospectral AKNS (tfnisAKNS) hierarchy. By transforming the stfisAKNS hierarchy into two fractional bilinear forms and reconstructing the potentials from fractional scattering data corresponding to the tfnisAKNS hierarchy, three pairs of uniform formulas of novel N-fractal solutions with Mittag-Leffler functions are obtained through the Hirota bilinear method (HBM) and the inverse scattering transform (IST). Restricted to the Cantor set, some obtained continuous everywhere but nondifferentiable one- and two-fractal solutions are shown by figures directly. More meaningfully, the problems worth exploring of constructing N-fractal solutions of soliton equation hierarchies by HBM and IST are solved, taking stfisAKNS and tfnisAKNS hierarchies as examples, from the point of view of local fractional order derivatives. Furthermore, this paper shows that HBM and IST can be used to construct some N-fractal solutions of other soliton equation hierarchies.
