This article is dedicated to portrait images in Western European porcelain of the XVIII century. Research is conducted on the works created in various European countries, such as Germany (Meissen), France (Sevres), Austria (Vienna), and England (Wedgwood Pottery Manufactory). Prominent masters of porcelain –Kendler, Boizot, Grassi – are the authors of the portraits. Sculptural portrait images of August III – painter of the court of the French Queen Marie Antoinette and the Holy Roman Emperor Joseph II are notable for exquisite artistic merit. The article reviews porcelain sculpture, as well as oil painted portraits. Interpretation of the images manifests the features of three styles characteristic to art of the XVIII century: Baroque, Rococo and Classicism. Portrait images reflect the themes typical to the Age of Enlightenment. The article describes the peculiarities of the creations of artists who worked in various European porcelain manufactories. Research methodology is based on the detailed stylistic analysis of the works of Baroque, Rococo and Classicism; fundamental examination of the works in historical sequence for determining the evolutionary changes; comparative analysis for revealing national and authorial specificities. The novelty is defined by the fact that this article is first to comprehensively analyze the portrait images in porcelain of such countries as Germany, France, and Austria of the XVIII century, as well as in identification of the features characteristic to different artists.

Architectural Orders

The forms and proportions of the Baroque column order of the buildings in St. Petersburg of the XVIII century differ substantially from the Western European canonical designs. The independent order system was created in each historical period under the influence of European architectural concepts, local style preferences, and creative choice of architects, and is of undoubted interest to both historians of architecture and restorers of historic buildings. The authors made a comparative analysis of the construction and drawing of architectural orders of buildings in St. Petersburg with architectural orders of classical works of the Renaissance, architectural works of the XVII - XVIII century. The process of gradual formation and modification of the column order in the architecture of St. Petersburg in the first half of the XVIII century is expounded. The main features of the construction of architectural orders during the Peter’s, Ann’s, and Elizabethan Baroque periods are revealed.

The Impact

The purpose of the article – based on the systematization of proposals from various scientific sources and the results of our own field studies of processes that occur in the agricultural sector, substantiate the main components of the institutional and legal environment aimed at preventing globalization of land use in the domestic agricultural sector, taking into account the experience of countries that have managed to solve this problem. Research methods. In the research process, the following methods were used: monographic (analysis of the distribution of agricultural enterprises of various countries by the area of agricultural land) comparative analysis (features of globalization processes in land use in Ukraine, Latin America and Western European countries were determined); empirical (according to a comprehensive assessment of the social and environmental consequences of the concentration of large tracts of agricultural land in the hands of domestic and transcontinental industrial-trading companies) abstract-logical (generalization and formulation of the main conclusions and suggestions based on the study results). Research results. The retrospective and current state of global processes in land use in different countries are investigated. A comparative analysis of the grouping of business entities by the size of land in Western European countries and Ukraine is carried out. It is proved that the economic benefits of anthropogenic agricultural production based on the concentration of large tracts of agricultural land in the hands of individual companies do not overlap social and environmental losses. The methods of rational distribution of agricultural land and control over their effective use and the role of the state in these processes are considered. Scientific novelty. Based on the systematization of the economic, social and environmental consequences of the global transformation of land use in agriculture and expert assessment of the impact of regulatory land legislation on this process, it was substantiated basic directions for the formation of the domestic institutional and legal environment aimed at preventing the development of an oligarchic latifund land use system in Ukraine. Practical significance. The obtained main research results are applied. Implementation in the domestic institutional and legal field of the restrictions proposed in the article on land use, access to agricultural land and state support and benefits, on the ecologization of land use through the adoption of the Law of Ukraine "On the Code of Sustainable Agriculture," and the introduction of strict control over compliance with established rules and regulations significantly they will reduce the "appetites" of existing agro-industrial-trade companies for expanding their land banks and limit their distribution in the agricultural sector of Ukraine, which will improve the conditions for the development of rural-self-sustaining enterprises and farms.

This case study examines and illustrates within country regional cultural differences and cross border cultural similarities across four western European countries. Drawing on the data from the World Values Survey (WVS), we refer to the Schwartz Cultural Values Inventory in the survey. The demographic variables of age, gender, education level, marital status and income vary across the regions and hence, have significant effects on the cultural value dimensions across regions. The findings help a better understanding of the homogeneity and heterogeneity of regions withinand across countries. Both researchers and managers will have to justify their sampling methods and generalisations more carefully when drawing conclusions for a whole country. This case study underlines the limited knowledge about regional within country cultural differences, while also illustrating the simplification of treating each country as culturally homogeneous. Cross-country business strategies connecting transnational regional markets based on cultural value characteristics need to take these similarities and differences into account when designating business plans.

Introduction: Better knowledge and skills of basic life support can save millions of lives each year in Europe. Aim: The aim of this study was to measure the knowledge about basic life support in European students. Method: From 13 European countries 1527 volunteer participated in the survey. The questionnaire consisted of socio-demographic questions and knowledge regarding basic life support. The maximum possible score was 18. Results: Those participants who had basic life support training earned 11.91 points, while those who had not participated in lifesaving education had 9.6 points (p<0.001). Participants from former socialist Eastern European countries reached 10.13 points, while Western Europeans had average 10.85 points (p<0.001). The best results were detected among the Swedish students, and the worst among the Belgians. Conclusions: Based on the results, there are significant differences in the knowledge about basic life support between students from different European countries. Western European youth, and those who were trained had better performance. Orv. Hetil., 2014, 155(21), 833–837.
