Polish literature is one of the leading positions not only in the Slavic world, but also well-presented at the global level. The article is devoted to the Polish writer of the middle of the twentieth century, whose name is unknown to the Ukrainian narratee, but his works are extremely interesting. The reasons why some writers do not fall into the field of wide-ranging research are different. In the case of the Kazimierz Trukhanovsky’s works, this is an insufficient research of the Polish literary criticism, the researchers are writing about it only now. Returning the names of interesting writers and attracting attention to their works is an actual and interesting task.The creative legacy of K. Trukhanovsky is quite extensive – it’s a romance cycle, story and short stories, individual novels. Philosophy, reflection and utopia are the most extensive characteristics of the writer’s works. The imagery and aesthetic background of the novels become clearer if we attract the work of artists, whose leading motive of creativity was the hell and the wandering of human souls in the search of divine light. The writer applied to mythologization and the magic properties of time-space measurements in the novel. Mythological and literary traditions are superimposed, as a result of which the author creates a complicated model of a labyrinthine novel.

Since the early years of the twentieth century, the Persian Gulf has been viewed as a strategically vital waterway, both for the global economy in general and for the continued prosperity of advanced economies in particular. In the process, the region has become an arena for the emergence of multiple and often overlapping security challenges, many of them indigenous to the area and many imported from abroad. Up until the 2011 Arab uprisings, most of these security challenges revolved around territorial, political, and military competitions and conflicts within and between actors from the region itself and from the outside. While threats and challenges to human security were also present, they were often overshadowed by more immediate and more tangible threats to territorial sovereignty and those posed by various forms of political and military competition between state actors.

The origins of Babylon date back almost two thousand years before the foundation of Rome. Among the longest continuously inhabited urban settlements in human history, it became the centre of one of the most culturally and intellectually vibrant civilizations of the ancient world, exercising a profound influence on its Near Eastern contemporaries, and contributing to the religious, scientific, and literary traditions of the Classical world. This VSI does not just deal with Babylon, but with the whole of southern Mesopotamia, extending southwards from modern Baghdad, in the region where the Tigris and the Euphrates closely approach each other, through the marshlands in the deep south to the Persian Gulf.

Задача выявить в творчестве Мулиат Емиж конца ХХ - начала XXI века типологические особенности национальной литературы определяет исследование проблемно-тематического содержания, эволюции конфликта и жанровых форм художественных явлений. Устанавливаются усиление проблемности и попытки углубления концепции личности в сборниках «Возвратившиеся песни», «Таинственный знак», «Горное озеро» и др. Отмечается движение к художественной объемности и концентрации поэтических средств. Определяется влияние фольклора и традиций литературы на формирование жанровых форм поэзии. Опора на историко-литературный и сравнительно-типологический методы позволяет сделать вывод об отражении в творчестве М. Емиж таких особенностей современной литературы, как освобождение от декларативности, публицистического многословия и торжественности. Работа может быть востребована при изучении теоретических проблем формирования отечественной литературы ХХ века. The authors set objectives to identify the typological features of national literature in the work of Muliat Emizh of the late 20 - early 21 centuries, which determine the study of the problem-thematic content, the evolution of the conflict and genre forms of artistic phenomena. The authors establish the strengthening of the problematic nature and attempts to deepen the concept of personality in the collections "Returned Songs", "The Mysterious Sign", "Mountain Lake", etc. The movement towards artistic volume and concentration of poetic means is noted. The influence of folklore and literary traditions on the formation of genre forms of poetry is determined. The reliance on historical-literary and comparative-typological methods makes it possible to draw a conclusion about the reflection in the work of M. Emizh of such features of contemporary literature as liberation from declarativity, journalistic pleonasm and solemnity. This work may be in demand in the study of theoretical problems of the formation of Russian literature of the twentieth century.

The Japanese translation of One Hundred Years of Solitude, published in 1972, was a landmark in Japan’s twentieth-century cultural life. From literature to cinema, from drama to anime film, García Márquez’s masterpiece has been hailed as a source for inspiration or as a professional milestone by leading Japanese creators. Authors such as Kenzaburō Ōe (Nobel laureate, 1994), Natsuki Ikezawa, and Kobo Abe openly acknowledged having undergone literary influence from the Colombian writer, while Haruki Murakami scholars point out how magical realism serves as García Márquez’s tool in depicting multiple explanations for a reality populated by traumatized characters. The subsequent Japanese publication of the near-totality of the Colombian Nobel laureate’s oeuvre, moreover, has helped bring into view a great many coincidences between magical realism and the subject matter and techniques of Japanese literary works produced since the end of the nineteenth century, when Japan ended its voluntary isolation and opened itself up to the West. The imprint of García Márquez on Japanese culture brings out parallels between two distant literary traditions that offer a reality different from that of the European, modifying it with magical or animistic elements. The legacy of GGM in cinema is present above all in the animated films of the Ghibli Studio, which submerge the viewer in a reality so palpable that one is induced to unquestioningly accept extravagant or implausible events.

The wave of protests that rocked the Arab countries since February 2011 has not spared the relatively prosperous region of the Persian Gulf.The gradually growing tension between the countries of the Cooperation Council for the Arab States of the Gulf led to a conflict between these states, and subsequently to a diplomatic crisis, which also affected neighboring countries that are not part of the Cooperation Council for the Arab States of the Gulf. During the conflict in the Persian Gulf, also referred to as the "Qatar Crisis of 2017," a number of Arab countries boycotted and adopted sanctions against Qatar.
