одной из личных коллекций в Горисе (Южный Азербайджан) хранится уникальный ковер. Этот ковер известен под названием «Семь планет». (Этот факт опубликован в книге Р.Тагиевой «Ковровые персонажи Низами», рисунок 40). Ковер был соткан в 1880 г. и по характеру изображенных на нем фигур автором был ковровщик-любитель. Уникальность этого ковра объясняется его содержательной составляющей. Следует также отметить, что в специальной литературе такие образцы не упоминаются. В центре ковра расположен прямоугольный медальон, а его кайма не очень широкая, состоит из трех полос. В этом медальоне теплый светло-коричневый цвет переходит в темно-коричневый. В медальоне размещены изображения семи планет. Эти планеты являются символами небесных звезд. В центре медальона изображено Солнце. Арабские надписи с названиями планет связаны с разными антропоморфными фигурами. Эти надписи расположены рядом на фоне четырех лопастных медальонов желтого цвета, обведенных желтой контурной линией. Все остальные фигуры расположены вокруг Солнца. Две из них расположены в верхней части, две – в нижней части медальона, а остальные четыре звезды находятся справа и слева от Солнца. Итак, размещение фигур – символов планет – повторяет схему размещения планет на небе. Исходя из этого, можно с уверенностью сказать, что древний обитатель Азербайджана изучал небо и имел собственные, возможно, примитивные представления о планетах. Сам Зороастр считался зороастрийским пророком и был ученым-астрологом, знал звезды и небо. По этой причине у древних греков имя Зороастр ассоциировалось с понятием «астрон» – звезда. Так, в древних источниках Зороастр описывается как мудрый астролог, основанное им учение называется зороастризмом. In one of personal collections in Goris (Southern Azerbaijan) a unique carpet is kept. That carpet is known by the name «Seven planets». (The fact is recorded by R.Tagiyeva in her book «Carpet characters of Nizami», picture 40). The carpet was woven in 1880 and judging by the character of figures, pictured on it, its author was amateur carpet-maker. Uniqueness of that carpet is explained by its content aspect. It should be also pointed, that in special literature such samples arenot mentioned. In the centre of carpet a rectangular medallion is placed, and its border isnot very wide, it consists of three stripes. In that medallion a warm, light-brown color transforms into dark-brown one (here ABRASH is seen). In the medallion pictures of seven planets are placed. These planets are symbols of heavenly stars. In the centre of medallion the Sun is pictured. (Arabian inscriptions with names of planets are connected with different anthropomorphous figures. These inscriptions are placed side by side, on the background of four paddle medallions of yellow color. These medallions are outlined by yellow contour line). All other figures are placed around the Sun. Two of them are placed in upper part, two of them are placed in bottom of medallion, and the rest four stars are on the right and on the left side of Sun. So, the placing of figures – symbols of planets – reproduces the scheme of planets placing in the sky. This facenables to presume, that ancient inhabitants of Azerbaijanstudied the sky and had their own,spmewhat primitive ideas about the planets. Zoroaster himself was considered a Zoroastrian prophet and anastrologer, he knew the stars and the sky. That was the reason, that the name Zoroaster for ancient Greeks was associated with notion «astron» – star. So, in ancient sources Zoroaster is described as wise astrologer, the doctrine, founded by him, is named Zoroastrism.

A river flows serenely accepting all the miseries and happiness that it comes across its journey. A tree releases oxygen for human beings despite its inner plights. The sun is never tired of its duty and gives sunlight without any interruption. Why are all these elements of nature so tuned to? Education is knowledge. Knowledge comes from learning. Learning happens through experience. Familiarity is the master of life that shapes the individual. Every individual learns from nature. Nature teaches how to sustain, withdraw and advocate the prevailing situations. Some dwell into the deep realities of nature and nurture as ideal human beings. Life is a puzzle. How to solve it is a million dollar question that can never be answered so easily. The perception of life changes from individual to individual making them either physically powerful or feeble. Society is not made of only individuals. Along with individuals it has nature, emotions, spiritual powers and superstitious beliefs which bind them. Among them the most crucial and alarming is the emotions which are interrelated to others. Alone the emotional intelligence is going to guide the life of an individual. For everyone there is an inner self which makes them conscious of their deeds. The guiding force should always force the individual to choose the right path.  Writers are the powerful people who have rightly guided the society through their ingenious pen outs.  The present article is going to focus on how the major elements bound together are dominating the individual’s self through Rabindranath Tagore’s Home and the World (1916)

The observations of the late transit of Venus, though made with all possible care and accuracy, have not enabled us to determine with certainty the real quantity of the sun's parallax; since, by a comparison of the observations made in several parts of the globe, the sun's parallax is not less than 8" 1/2, nor does it seem to exceed 10". From the labours of those gentlemen, who have attempted to deduce this quantity from the theory of gravity, it should seem that the earth performs its annual revolution round the sun at a greater distance than is generally imagined: since Mr. Professor Stewart has determined the sun's parallax to be only 6', 9, and Mr. Mayer, the late celebrated Professor at Gottingen, who hath brought the lunar tables to a degree of perfection almost unexpected, is of opinion that it cannot exceed 8".

There are two basic ways in which the phenomenon of learning is explicated in the Platonic dialogues: First, by means of an analogy with vision, and second, by arguing that the acquisition of knowledge is really anamnesis (recollection). The analogy with vision is the more common of the two and occurs throughout the dialogues. The passage in the Republic comparing the sun and the good (508c-509b) is the best known instance of this approach to the clarification of learning. The basic point of this explication is that the mind, like the eye, in order to discover truth must be turned in the right direction and be trained to apprehend and distinguish the characters of the objects it beholds. In this context, the acquisition of knowledge is clearly a discovery of that which was not previously known, just as the man who escapes from the cave sees what he had not previously seen (Republic, 514a-516c), and at the end of the ascent of the heavenly ladder one “begins to see” what he has not seen before (Symposium, 211b 8).

My Lord, The present bad state of health of my worthy friend and collegue Dr. Bradley, his Majesty's Astronomer, prevented him from making the proper observations of the transit of Venus on Saturday morning last; and consequently, has deprived the public of such as would have been taken by so experienced and accurate an observer.

This article meticulously analyzes the views of the representative of aesthetic school and school of democratic poetry of the Russian literature of the XIX century upon the designation of art and science. The essays “From the Village” by A. A. Fet, which depict the poet’s outlook upon the role and tasks of poetry, science, and art as a whole, serve as the materials for this research. Opinion of the opponents from democratic school is demonstrated on the example of the article “Dreams and Reality” by the author of the satirical magazine “Iskra” Pavel Medvedev. The article examines polemical dialogue between the two schools, analyzes and compares the arguments provided by its representatives. The article describes various mechanisms that allow using aesthetic beliefs as the foundation for creating a parodistically distorted personality and as a method for exposing the true views. The cycle by P. A. Medvedev “Dreams and Reality”, which combines the attributes of satirical parody and satire itself, was created as an instrument that is able to discredit publicizing of A. A. Fet in his essays “From the Village”, and thus unveil not only his aesthetic, but also sociopolitical position, ideology of the right-winger and advocate of serfdom. The parodist was trying to achieve such effect solely through interpretation and commenting of the statements of A. A. Fet himself.

This article is a deep study of the technical possibilities of the modern piano and the use of this knowledge in the musical and pianistic development of the personality. The history of the modern piano begins in the XIX century. In 1823, Sebastien Erar in Paris invented the mechanism of double rehearsal. It was a double rehearsal that marked the beginning of a new history of the modern piano. Its main task is to achieve the sensation of closing a fingertip with a string. Similarly, as the ligaments of the vocalist close or the bow with the string of the violinist. Double rehearsal is a thin spring mechanism that allows you to repeatedly press a key from half or a quarter of a key's stroke without lifting your finger from the key.This mechanism drives the hammer, and the damper remains motionless. This creates a pedal sound effect. Possession of a double rehearsal allows the pianist to understand that any touch to the keyboard affects the quality and color of the sound. Touching the keyboard is called Touche - unfortunately a forgotten professional concept. Frederic Chopin owned an excellent touche, for which he was called the "Singer of the piano." Famous musician, conductor, pianist, composer, music theorist, philosopher, human rights activist, Honored Artist of Russia Mikhail Arkadyev is considered a modern researcher of double rehearsal. Mastering a double rehearsal is achieved by repeating a single sound or akorda of three, four sounds on a legato without using the right pedal. Therefore, it is necessary to learn from the very beginning and the first touch. There are many examples of the use of double rehearsal in music literature. It can be any repetition of the same sounds. She creates a variety of musical images. Possession of a double rehearsal contributes to the technical freedom of the pianist, aesthetic and physical support when playing the piano. The research of the ordered topic revealed that the sophisticated mechanism of the double rehearsal is the first and true "soul of the piano" (pedal - "friend") She (double rehearsal) contributes to the technical maintenance of the perfect performance of the musical work and requires a painstaking work as a music teacher, and his students. And this must be done from the beginning of education and education of music school students. As a conclusion of the study, it should be emphasized that today in education the personal-oriented pedagogy comes to the fore. Therefore, the upbringing, development, formation of individual and personal qualities in pupils with the means of music should occupy the current place in the work of musical schools. And this only confirms the relevance of the topic of research and requires its further development.
