Connections and interrelations come up in the global literary process directly and indirectly. The present article is devoted to the literary parallels in the creative work of the famous Russian poet, a participant of the Second World War, chief editor of the literary magazine «Nowy Mir» Alexandr Tvardovsky and the popular Iran poet Keysar Aminpur. War and peace problems – are persistent in any national literature throughout the centuries. These problems have reflected in the life, fate and creative work of the Russian poet. They are also predominant in the poetry of K. Aminpur. Longing for home, dreams about piece in the world during ongoing military actions– are common concepts in the poetry of Tvardovsky and Aminpur, where people striving for peace have been drawn into the conflict. Patriotic and heroic motives in the poetry of the Russian and the Iran poets, ways of reflection in style, language and composition of the poems are different due to literary process particularities in the USSR and Iran in the last quarter of the XX-th century. At the same time, there are common points allowing us to compare poetry of A. Tvardovsky and K. Aminpur. Motives of patriotism and heroics are being analyzed from the prospective of nature.

Abstract In de periode tussen de jaren 80 van de negentiende eeuw en de Tweede Wereldoorlog was België een belangrijk internationaal kunstcentrum. In het bijzonder vond de symbolistische stroming er toen vruchtbare grond. Wereldwijd erkent men de hoge kwaliteit van de Belgische symbolistische literatuur en schilderkunst, maar ook in de muziek speelde het symbolistische gedachtegoed een belangrijke rol. In dit artikel bespreekt Pauline Lebbe het repertorium aan liederen van Belgische componisten, gecomponeerd op teksten van Belgische symbolistische auteurs. Ze heeft daarbij aandacht voor de creatieve werkomgeving van de muzikanten. De nauwe samenwerking tussen kunstenaars, kunstcritici en -theoretici en de organisatoren van concerten en muziekverenigingen vormt een belangrijk maar weinig onderzochte context van die muziek. Het corpus aan liederen blijkt verrassend verfijnd en origineel. In the period between the 1880s and the Second World War, Belgium was an important international hub for the arts. Especially the symbolist movement found the fertile soil in this country, which is renowned all over the world for its high-quality symbolist literature and paintings. But in music, too, symbolism reigned supreme. In this article, Pauline Lebbe discusses songs Belgian artists composed to accompany texts by Belgian symbolist authors. She devotes attention to the musicians' creative work environment. The close collaborations between artists, art critics, art theorists and concert organisers and music groups is a crucial aspect of this kind of music that remains underexplored. The corpus of songs turns out to be surprisingly refined and original.

During the twenty years after the Second World War, housing began to be seen as a basic right among many in the west, and the British welfare state included many policies and provisions to provide decent shelter for its citizens. This article focuses on the period circa 1968–85, because this was a time in England when the lack of affordable, secure-tenured housing reached a crisis level at the same time that central and local governmental housing policies received wider scrutiny for their ineffectiveness. My argument is that despite post-war laws and rhetoric, many Britons lived through a housing disaster and for many the most rational way they could solve their housing needs was to exploit loopholes in the law (as well as to break them out right). While the main focus of the article is on young British squatters, there is scope for transnational comparison. Squatters in other parts of the world looked to their example to address the housing needs in their own countries, especially as privatization of public services spread globally in the 1980s and 1990s. Dutch, Spanish, German and American squatters were involved in a symbiotic exchange of ideas and sometimes people with the British squatters and each other, and practices and rhetoric from one place were quickly adopted or rejected based on the success or failure in each place.

In the present article author’s considerations on a fundamental economic problem are carried out, and results and conclusions, arising out of author’s investigationsр, are discussed. The problem of the depreciation of fixed assets has always been central to the accounting science, the economy and society. The article attaches importance to fundamental scientific research works, emblematic for the Bulgarian accounting science in its classical (pre-Second World War) period, during which the theoretical and methodological bases of the problem of the depreciation of fixed assets were developed. The article highlights, analyzes and summarizes views of distinguished theoreticians of the depreciation problem, that have most substantially influenced the process of developing and systematizing specialized accounting knowledge on depreciation. On the bases of the retrospective comparative analysis, it is argued that the foundational research and conceptual ideas of the classical period and later, have contributed to a considerable expansion and enrichment of the system of knowledge in this scientific field.

For the first time in Russian historiography, the article draws attention to the connection of the War of Khalkhin Gol in 1939 and the conclusion of the German-Soviet Nonaggression Pact of 1939. For a long time, historical science considered these two major events in the history of the USSR and history of the world individually, without their historic relationship. The authors made an attempt to provide evidence of this relationship, showing the role that surrounding and defeating the Japanese army at Khalkhin Gol in August 1939 and signing in Moscow of the German-Soviet Nonaggression Pact played in the history of the world. The study analyzes the foreign policy of the USSR in Europe, the reasons for the failure in the conclusion of the Anglo-Franco-Soviet military union in 1939 and the circumstances of the Pact. It shows the interrelation between the defeat of the Japanese troops at Khalkhin Gol and the need for the Soviet-German treaty. The authors describe the historic consequences of the conclusion of the pact for the further development of the Japanese-German relations and the course of the Second World War. They also present the characteristics of the views of these historical events in the Russian historiography.

This is the story of the school path of a little girl of Quebec during the 1940s. Hers was a mixed primary school, as were the majority of schools found in little towns and villages in Quebec. While the Second World War gave far away rhythm to the life of the world, this story informs us about the education offered before the great educational reform of 1948; on the schoolmistresses, the religious frame, and the positive role played by the school in the pre-television period, in a family where education was greatly valued.

The current paper focused on the spectatularization of disasters as the main commodity thana capitalism exchanges. The discussion around the crimes against mankind perpetrated by Nazis in the clandestine concentration camps opened the doors towards new insights respecting the roots of thana capitalism. Nazis violated human rights secreting their crimes in a moment of the world where millions certainly died. Today´s philosophers are shocked to see how Auschwitz-Birkenau, which was the sanctuary of the horrors of the Second World War, sets the pace to a new allegory, intended to entertain thousands of tourists, many of them unfamiliar with these events. As a highly-demanded tourist destination, Auschwitz evinces the change of new postmodern ethics that commoditizes the other´s loss as a criterion of entertainment. The example of terrorism shows one of the paradoxes of thana capitalism simply because media covers and disseminates the cruelties of attacks to gain further subscribers and investors while terrorism finds a fertile ground to penetrate the homes of a wider audience.

This chapter focuses on the wartime congressional experience, which reflected an important shift in American foreign policy. During the Second World War, support for deep American engagement with the world, once confined to a narrow circle of internationalist elites, replaced isolationism as the dominant paradigm in American political discourse. The long debates and introduction of bills on postwar foreign policy in Congress during the summer and fall of 1943 revealed a sea change toward congressional support for an active postwar foreign policy and extensive commitments around the world. This change in Congress reflected the shift in American opinion as the isolationists and noninterventionists lost the national debate on the country's future.
