Translations in Ireland (between Irish Gaelic and English) take place in two very different scenarios. In the southern Republic, the Irish language is officially the first national language, but it is now spoken by a bare fraction of the population, and is steadily declining as a living language. Translations between Irish and English are supported by the Republic ’s government in various schemes, but are often viewed with suspicion by many of the Irish Gaelic speakers as yet another colonialist move. In the North (Northern Ireland), the long history of repression has made the language a rallying point for nationalists. It is in this political minefield and threatened linguistic zone that both writer and translator must operate. Creative hybridity is revealed not as free of political enmeshments, but rather the reverse: the creative vitality of this particular bilingual writing zone (of both author and translator) results precisely from its highly pressurized milieu. This article argues that translations are served by the reflexive postcolonial understanding of the role of the translator and translation, as well as the original text, within the larger socio-political context.

This essay explores the ways in which Ireland's sacralised national language figures in Beckett's work. Oblique references to Irish in the Beckett oeuvre are read against a history of Anglo-Irish investment in the language as a mode of ‘impatriation’, a means by which to circumscribe anxieties surrounding an identity fraught with socio-political anomalies. In addition, the suspicion of ‘official language’ in Beckett's work is considered in light of his awareness of the ‘language issue’ in his native country, particularly in relation to the powerful role of the Irish language in the reterritorialisation of the civic sphere in post-independence Ireland.

Настоящая статья содержит ранее не публиковавшийся и неизвестный меморандум Г.В. Баева, который теперь хранится в его личном архиве (Берлин, Национальная библиотека). В этом коротком тексте (всего восемь страниц), написанном на русском языке в 1925 году и адресованном Исполнительному комитету Северо-Осетинской Автономной Области, автор выражает свое негативное мнение о введении латинского алфавита в Осетии, излагая культурные и практические причины предпочтения им кириллицы, которая впервые использовалась, в гражданском варианте, в осетинской грамматике, составленной академиком А.М. Шегреном в 1844 году. Издание меморандума основывается на двух практически идентичных машинописных черновиках и преследует две главные цели: сделать этот текст доступным для более широкой академической публики и, следовательно, стимулировать поиск оригинального текста в архивах Республики Северная Осетия-Алания. The present article features a hitherto unpublished and unknown memorandum by G.V. Baev, now kept in his personal archive (Berlin, National Library). In this short text (eight pages), written in Russian in 1925 and addressed to the executive committee of the North Ossetian autonomous region, G.V. Baev expresses his negative opinion about the introduction of a Latin-based alphabet in Ossetia and exposes the cultural and practical reasons of his preference of the Cyrillic script, firstly used, in the civil typeface, in the Ossetic grammar composed by the academician A.M. Sjögren in 1844. The edition of the memorandum is based on two almost identical machine-type drafts and has two major aims: to make this text available to a broader academic audience and, as a consequence, to stimulate the search of the original text in the archives of the Republic of North Ossetia-Alania.

The study of petrophytes, as a peculiar group of plants, is important for understanding the history of the flora and nature in general. Their ecological characteristics, taxonomic composition, geographic and genetic relationships and other characteristics carry information about the stages of development of the mountain country and its flora. Rutulsky district is a part of Highland Dagestan and borders on the Republic of Azerbaijan in the South, Akhtynsky and Kurakhsky districts in the East, Tlyaratinsky and Charodinsky districts in the North-West, Kulinsky, Agulsky and Laksky districts of the Republic of Dagestan in the North. The relief of Highland Dagestan, which is the area of our research, is characterized by a large slope, stony and rocky mountains. The following paper contains taxonomic, biomorphic, ecological analyses of petrophyte complexes of the studied area and an analysis of endemism and relict flora of petrophytic complexes. Herbarium material has helped to find the dominant family, genera and species of petrophyte complexes of the area. Biomorphic and environmental groups of petrophyte complexes have been studied. Confinement of petrophytes to different environmental conditions has been established. Endemic, relict and protected species of petrophyte complexes have been identified.
