The remarkable influence of gender studies in recent years on the Greek educational system has inevitably led to the integration of a multi-focal thematic section entitled “Gender in Literature” in the new Lyceum curriculum. This section truly captures the interest of adolescents, as it stimulates the approach of literary texts and promotes constructive discussions that often lead to further enjoyment of reading. On this base a collaboration between University of Athens and Anavryta Model Lyceum was carried out in Literature class in both institutions. This article aims to present the main stages of this cooperation on the subject of “Literary Representations of Women’s roles from traditional to modern society”, as the institutional framework for teaching literature clearly supports the historicity of texts. Besides explaining the rationale behind this educational action, we are proposing a selection of literary texts that were used in class and presenting the objectives and didactic methods practiced, the type of tasks assigned to the pupils as well as the skills developed by them. The paper insists on certain texts that are particularly valuable for this approach and offers examples of taking advantage of contextual elements. Finally, we are showing how this collaboration became a real example of extroversion for both institutions and we are attempting a comprehensive evaluation of this project and its impact within the students’ and teachers’ community.

The Subject

In the current time, one of the important tasks of modern schools is to prepare a highly educated student who can think creatively and independently in any situation. In the realization of this task, literature, as a school discipline, which forms the inner world and valuable orientations of students, plays a large role. The study of literature can have crucial importance in the education of the independent personality possessing esthetical taste. Scholars consider the subject of literature as a critical study of literary texts. They clarify that one of the main aims of the subject is the critical analysis of how language is used in different types of texts to identify meaning and find out text elements. With the help of reading various literary texts, students in secondary education of modern schools can receive skills of critical analysis through connecting the meaning of these texts with their lives and the world. Besides, teaching literature in secondary education can provide the ability to imagine the inner and outer worlds of any substance, to solve and investigate important, present, and future problems individually. A considerable number of scholars and studies have attempted to describe the importance of this discipline.

In the assumption that literary texts can be employed already in the first German language classes, we are confronted with the question how to select the right texts and whether there might be historical criteria. This article argues that medieval German literature can also be included, if it is dealt with in a pedagogically and didactically skillful manner. The messages of the medieval texts often prove to be astoundingly meaningful, and this even for us today, not only because they develop alternative perspectives, but also because they address basically the same problems as today, even though from their own perspectives. Based on a selection of literary texts from the twelfth through the late thirteenth century this article illustrates what texts could be used well in German as a Foreign Language and in a literature class to meet specific learning outcomes.

Definition is given to the concept of “author's modality”, which implies the author’s vision, attitude, and value orientations expressed through selection of particular language means. The subject of this research is the linguistic peculiarities of literary text, which allowed the audience to portray the image of the author, and analyze the specifics of representation her linguistic personality. The goal of this research consists in determination of language means that reflects the peculiarities of the author’s linguistic personality, as well as reveal individuality and distinctness of literary style of N. Abgaryan. The research material is comprised of the partially biographical novels of the contemporary Russian writer Narine Abgaryan “Manyunya”, “Manyunya Writes a Fantastic Novel”, and "Manyunya, Ba Jubilee, and other Tribulation”.

Churilina, etc., dedicated to the author, analysis of linguistic personality of the character of literary work. The scientific novelty of consists in identification of specific manifestations of  author's modality on the example of works of the contemporary Russian writer, which allows fully revealing the image of a modern author. The conducted research highlights and characterize specific features of linguistic implementation of author's modality: priority concepts in the author's worldview (“family”, “time”, “memory”); individuality of creative perception and manners of the author (irony, self-irony, nostalgia, description of tastes and smells); authorial transitions (remarks, references); visual arrangement of the text. The acquired results can be used in the lectures on studying literary texts, classes on linguoculturology, linguopersonology, as well as teaching Russian to foreign audience.

ملخص البحث:لمادة الأدب في المرحلة الثانوية أهمية كبيرة في رفع مستوى الطلبة اللغوي وفي غرس حبِّهم لتذوق الجمال الأدبي. وتعدّ مادة الأدب العربي في مدارس المرحلة الثانوية الدينية بماليزيا من المواد الإجبارية في الشهادة الثانوية الدينية العالية الماليزية، لكن الملاحظ أن النصوص الأدبية التي يدرسها الطلبة في تلك المادة لم يكن اختيارها مبنيّاً على أُسس علمية واضحة، فكان من نتائج ذلك أن أولئك الطلبة استشعروا صعوبة فهْم تلك النصوص وعسْر تعلّمها، ولعل هذا يعدّ من أسباب تدنّي مستوى طلبة المرحلة الثانوية في اللغة العربية، لأن تلك النصوص لا تشجّعهم على الاستمرار في قراءتها، لأنها ليست سلسة بل بعضها غامضة وصعبة الفهم، لذا يهدف هذا البحث إلى إبراز جوانب القصور في اختيار تلك النصوص من ناحية الشكل والمحتوى، أما الشكل فسيُكتشف فيه جانب اختيار المفردات والتراكيب وحجم النص، بينما المحتوى سيُبرز فيه الجانب الثقافي والنفسي والتربوي لمضامين تلك النصوص. وسيقترح البحث بعض النماذج المختارة من النصوص الأدبية العربية التي تتناسب مع مستوى طلبة هذه المرحلة، وفي نهاية البحث ستُستخلص نتائج ومقترحات تفيد المهتميّن والمختصِّين في وضع الكتاب المدرسي عند اختيار النصوص المناسبة لمادة الأدب العربي.الكلمات المفتاحية: مادة الأدب العربي- الشهادة الثانوية الدينية العالية الماليزية (STAM)- النصوص الأدبية العربية- معايير اختيار النص الأدبي- تقويم النص الأدبي.Abstract:The subject of literature is significant on the secondary level to raise the language competency level of students and to cultivate their interest in literary sensibility. The literary subject in the syllabus of Malaysian high school religious certificate is compulsory. Unfortunately, there are no clear tenets for the selection of the literary texts in the subject. Consequently, the perception among students is that the texts are beyond comprehension and learning. It is possible to claim that this might be one of the explanations to the decline in the competency in Arabic among those students.  The students do not feel encouraged to read continuously the texts since they are difficult, ambiguous and complicated. This paper attempts to point out the shortcomings in the selection of the structure and content of those texts. Structurally, the study focuses on the selection aspect of the words, phrases and size of the text. As for the content, the aspects of culture, psychology and education of the texts are the focus of discussion. The paper will recommend a number of alternative Arabic texts that would suit the level of those students. Finally, the paper concludes a number of recommendations for the parties involved in textbook syllabus to take into consideration to select properly texts for this purpose.Keyword: Arabic literature subject– Malaysian High School Religious Examination– Arabic Literary Texts– Standards of selecting Arabic Literary Texts– Assessment of literary text.Abstrak:Mata pelajaran sastera pada peringkat sekolah menengah merupakan subjek penting untuk meningkatkan tahap kecekapan pelajar-pelajar dalam menggunakan bahasa dan memupuk minat mereka terhadap bidang kesusasteraan. Begitu juga dengan mata pelajaran sastera Arab yang diajar di sekolah-sekolah menengah agama di Malaysia, malah ia merupakan subjek wajib bagi peperiksaan Sijil Tinggi Agama Malaysia (STAM). Walau bagaimanapun, pemilihan teks-teks sastera yang diajarkan kepada para pelajar dalam subjek ini tidak mengikut asas yang jelas. Akibatnya, para pelajar berasa sukar untuk memahami dan mempelajari teks-teks tersebut. Keadaan ini mungkin menjadi salah satu sebab penurunan tahap pencapaian pelajar-pelajar sekolah menengah dalam bahasa Arab. Hal ini kerana teks-teks sastera yang digunakan rumit dan sukar difahami, bahkan tidak menggalakkan para pelajar untuk meneruskan bacaan. Oleh yang demikian, kajian ini berusaha untuk memaparkan kekurangan dan kelemahan terhadap pemilihan teks-teks sastera yang digunakan sama ada dari segi isi kandungan atau pun binaannya. Dari sudut binaan, perbincangan akan difokuskan kepada aspek pemilihan perkataan, frasa dan saiz teks, manakala dari segi isi kandungan perbincangan akan difokuskan kepada aspek kebudayaan, psikologi dan pendidikan yang terdapat dalam teks-teks tersebut. Kajian turut mencadangkan beberapa contoh teks-teks sastera Arab lain yang sesuai dengan tahap para pelajar. Dapatan kajian dan saranan pemilihan teks-teks sastera yang bertepatan dengan mata pelajaran sastera Arab akan dibentangkan pada akhir kajian. Perkara ini penting bagi pihak yang terlibat dengan pembikinan buku teks untuk mengambil tindakan sewajarnya. Kata kunci: Mata pelajaran sastera Arab- Sijil Tinggi Agama Malaysia (STAM)- Teks-teks sastera Arab- Piawaian pemilihan teks sastera- Penilaian teks sastera.

The recent reprinting of Álvaro de Silva’s 1998 edition of a selection of More’s letters prompts the author to examine the subject of Spanish translations of More, and of de Silva’s general commentary on More’s correspondence and on his relationship to other humanists. The author reflects on aspects of More’s personality as exposed in his letters and uses what he finds as a corrective to several biographical misconceptions. He points out the strengths and weaknesses of de Silva’s work and compares it with that of other translators, particularly Elizabeth Rogers, and notes the particularly Spanish quality of de Silva’s edition.

And Training

Today, worldview, spiritual and moral problems that have always been reflected in education and upbringing come to the fore in society. In this situation, there is a demand for philosophical categories. One of the priority goals of education in modern conditions is the formation of a reasonable, reflexive person who is able to analyze their actions and the actions of other people. Modern science is characterized by an understanding of the absolute value and significance of childhood in the development of the individual, which implies the need for its multilateral study. In the conditions of democratization of all spheres of life, the child ceases to be a passive object of education and training, and becomes an active carrier of their own meanings of being and the subject of world creation. One of the realities of childhood is philosophizing, so it is extremely timely to address the identification of its place and role in the world of childhood. Children's philosophizing is extremely poorly studied, although the need for its analysis is becoming more obvious. Children's philosophizing is one of the forms of philosophical reflection, which has its own qualitative specificity, on the one hand, and commonality with all other forms of philosophizing, on the other. The social relevance of the proposed research lies in the fact that children's philosophizing can be considered as an intellectual indicator of a child's socialization, since the process of reflection involves the adoption and development of culture. Modern society, in contrast to the traditional one, is ready to "accept" a philosophizing child, which means that it is necessary to determine the main characteristics and conditions of children's philosophizing.

This review is devoted to the monograph by Jan Nedvěd “We do not decline our heads. The events of the year 1968 in Karlovy Vary”. The Karlovy Vary municipal museum coincided its publishing with the fiftieth anniversary of the Prague spring which, considering the way of the presentation, turned the book not only to scientific event but also to the social one. The book describes sociopolitical trends in the region before the year 1968, the development of the reformist movement, the invasion and advance of the armies of the Warsaw Pact countries, and finally the decline of the reformist mood and the beginning of the normalization. Working on his writing, the author deeply studied the materials of the local archive and gathered the unique selection of the photographs depicting the passage of the soviet army through the spa town and the protest actions of its inhabitants. In the meantime, Nedvěd takes undue freedom with scientific terms, and his selection of historiography raises questions. The author bases his research on the Czech papers and scarcely uses the books of Russian origin. He also did not study the subject of the participating of the GDR’s army in the operation Danube, although these troops were concentrated on the borders of Karlovy Vary region as well. Because of this decision, there are no materials from German archives or historiography in the monograph. In general, the work lacks the width of studying its subject, but it definitively accomplishes the task of depicting the Prague spring from the regional perspective.

The Subject

Migration is one of the oldest and most used strategies for overcoming negative social issues. Despite the fact that it is historically deeply rooted, environmental migration as a social phenomenon has only recently become the subject research of numerous scientific fields. However, the study of current environmental migration is characterized by a number of issues, such as absence of an adequate definition and multi-causality of environmental migration. In this paper, through conceptual framework, author analyzed two main questions: who are environmental migrants and what reasons cause environmental migration. Due to the destruction of the global environmental balance, as well as accumulated environmental disturbances, it is likely that environmental migration will increase in future and there is nowhere you cannot make more use of scientific and professional projection of the future than in demographic and environmental spheres of human life. There is no doubt that our future is unpredictable. However, the environmental factors influencing the pattern of human interaction with the environment must be taken into account when projecting future development of the modern society. Such is the context in which the complex relation among migration, change and the environment has to be studied. In order to establish the basis for controlling environmental migration caused by negative changes in the environment, it is necessary to adopt a consistent strategy instead of ad hoc activities that are being used. In this paper, author analyzed societal response for the challenges caused by environmental migration, specifically regarding actions related to governing environmental migrations.

Studying the historical facts of past wars and armed conflicts and natural and man-made emergencies, today in the Republic of Kazakhstan one of the most important security issues is the preparation and organization of the evacuation of the population from possible dangerous zones, taking into account the emergence of new threats to the country’s security. The paper presents an algorithm for constructing universal scales of the distribution function of opportunities by types of support and rebuilding them into subject scales using display functions. The purpose of the paper is to determine the integral indicators characterizing the possibility of accommodation of the evacuated population and the impact on resources during relocation. On the subject scales of cities and districts of the region, indicators of the possibility of relocation of a certain amount of the evacuated population by types of support and indicators characterizing the impact on the district’s resources during resettlement of a certain amount of the evacuated population are determined. It was concluded that the use of integrated indicators allows the selection of areas to accommodate the evacuated population without the use of statistical data, in conditions of incomplete and inaccurate information. The presented method does not replace traditional methods based on classical methods of territory assessment by the level of life sustenance, but also allows their reasonable combination with the experience of specialists in this field, taking into account the incompleteness, uncertainty, and inconsistency of the initial data of the study area, which does not allow the application of existing methods.
