Most young people spend time online every day in order to access social networks, where not only do they consume, but also produce content. The posting of content ends up reflecting a personal story in which young people recognize themselves. This posting practice requires competences that can be developed in digital literacy-related educational activities. Our research is aimed at understanding the posting habits of young people with the goal of integrating these practices in formal educational contexts. For this purpose, we have qualitatively analyzed the interviews of 21 young people. The results show different posting habits, as well as the motivating factors, perceptions and types of content posted by young people on social networks. An interpretative analysis of the results shows the possibilities of working on the storytelling experiences of young people on social networks from the perspective of the Personal Digital Storytelling educational methodology.

Basing itself on the distribution of rewards and punishments to individuals, upon scoring based on the compliance of the aforementioned citizens towards laws and government interests. The present study probes Sesame Credit from data collected from academic papers, Chinese government official documents, as well as media articles.An interpretative analysis is conducted based on the Octalysismethod of gamification and the motivational method known as the Self-Determination Theory. Residing as main conclusions: a) the efficiency of the Sesame Credit depends on extensive and continual monitoring of the population by the Chinese government; b) despite the coercive aspects, such gamification is observed to be as popular in China, due to a millenary tradition of people’s compliance to the social and those of authority obedience

AbstractAs data are ‘numbers with context’ (Cobb & Moore, 1997), contextual knowledge plays a prominent role in dealing with statistics. While insights about a specific context can further the depth of interpreting and evaluating outcomes of data analysis, research shows how it can also hinder relying on data especially if results differ from expectations. In this article, the aim is to investigate how young students informally deal with empirical evidence, which differs from their initial expectations in a specific context. We present a case study with three pairs of students at the age of 9 to 10 who compare groups in survey datasets. The interpretative analysis shows how conjectures of varying degrees of confidence shape the students’ statistical expectations and can play different roles in interpreting results from data analysis.

The results of the analysis of the rhetoric of Xi Jinping’s public speech are presented. The novelty of the research lies in an attempt of a comparative interpretation of allusive linguistic representations of the text of the speech and its translations into English and Russian. It is emphasized that the interpretation of linguistic representations or their decoding is possible in the contexts of linguacultural accents of allusions of the text and dictionary entries, since by its sign essence language is one of the codes of culture. The authors proceed from the fact that the allusion, being a cognitive category, has a cultural-code meaning (CC-meaning), which is reflected not only in the vocabulary conceptual content, but also in the system of extralinguistic knowledge, associations and images that acquire meaning, enshrined in the culture of linguistic community. The results of an interpretative analysis in order to identify allusive hidden meanings and cultural-code meanings of the units under study are presented in the article. An algorithm is proposed for the interpretative analysis of figurative units in the speech of Xi Jinping by comparing their representations in three languages. The question is raised that the allusions in the speech of the Chinese leader and their semantic correspondences in the translation texts are addressed both to the internal addressees / speakers of the Chinese language and to the external — foreign-language audience.

INTRODUÇÃO: Este ensaio aborda as representações sociais em torno do papel do goleiro no contexto do futebol brasileiro. O marco temporal é a Copa do Mundo de 1950 pelo impacto histórico e sociocultural que a derrota da seleção brasileira na final no Maracanã teve no cenário nacional à época. OBJETIVO: Analisa dados e informações de alguns autores sobre a Copa do mundo daquele ano, especialmente sobre a falha do goleiro Barbosa, que foi culpado pela derrota brasileira na final daquela Copa. MÉTODOS: Análise interpretativa de discursos sobre goleiros na ótica da Teoria do Espaço de Representação do Futebol. CONCLUSÃO: Conclui que no Brasil, desde o episódio Barbosa, construiu-se uma representação de fundo racista sobre a confiabilidade de goleiros negros, assim como uma exacerbada valorização de goleiros estrangeiros. Discute possíveis caminhos a serem seguidos em pesquisas futuras nesta temática.ABSTRACT. Set piece: social representations of the goalkeeper figure in Brazilian football post-BarbosaBACKGROUND: TThis essay addresses the social representations surrounding the role of the goalkeeper in the context of Brazilian football.

Abstract During the last century, the Armenian Church and nation have lost most of their sacred spaces. One of the most peculiar cases is the history and afterlife of the khachkars (crossstones) of Julfa. The cemetery of Julfa was known for its endless unique khachkars and other monuments, constituting an exceptional sacred space in terms of spirituality and art history. The area was systematically and entirely destroyed by Azerbaijan in 2005. In the 2010s, Armenians reacted to the destruction by reviving the memory of Julfan khachkars by erecting their replicas to various locations in Armenia and other countries. As khachkars are supposed to be unique and unrepeatable, this struggle for memory requires an interpretative analysis. The problematics became urgent after the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh war when hundreds of Armenian monasteries, churches and sacred monuments were left under the control of Azerbaijan. There is no reason to assume that their fate in the long run will be any better than the hundreds of already demolished Armenian churches and monasteries in Azerbaijan.

The language used in a product or service has an extraordinary impact on the creation of its brand and on its online success. As localization is a key aspect of a globalized business, attention should be given to the localization of brand language to ensure global consistency. This study explores brand language localization problems in an online help corpus. Specifically, it analyzes the problems posed by the localization of brand names and terms in the pre-translation phase, following Nord’s pre-translation text analysis theory (2012). The main objective of the study is to understand the nature of identified brand language problems (professional purposes) and examine them (research purposes). The method implemented is a qualitative, interpretative analysis of a monolingual corpus in English comprising representative extracts from the Dropbox and Google Drive Online Help systems. The study is part of a wider research project exploring the concept of localization problems in online help localization.

This article presents a case study about three underwear and footwear advertising campaigns aimed at girls and adolescents in the context of the promotion of the back-to-school season in Chile in February 2020. The adverts caused social and media controversy. Social media users accused the brands of sexualizing children and adolescents’ images for marketing and commercial ends. Based on an interpretative analysis of the graphic pieces involved in the campaigns, this article reflects on the representation of girls and adolescent girls. This research observes a resort to female gender stereotypes char- acteristic of the fashion industry extended to childhood. Considering that advertising is one of the main discursive axes central in the social and media construction of infancy, we discuss the risk of normalizing communication strategies which appeal to the increasingly earlier seduction and erotization of infant and adolescent bodies through mass media despite prevailing ethical and self-regulation codes in the country.

Purpose of the present research is to analyze A.Droste’s creative arsenal in revealing the theme of love in poetry of different periods of the author’s work as well as in her unfinished novel “Bei uns zu Lande auf dem Lande”. The purpose was to identify the correlation between the facts of Droste’s personal life and the statements of her lyrical heroes about romantic relationships and the search for love and mutuality in relationships.Methods. The research is based on general scientific methods of analysis and includes the use of biographical, semantic and stylistic, comparative methods, linguopoetic interpretation, as well as interpretative analysis of the context.Results. The results of the research made it possible to establish Droste’s tendency to represent two types of love relationships and to identify the means of verbalization of the concept “love”. Based on the biographical method, a correlation between the biographical facts and the perspectives in love relations of the characters of the author’s two poetic cycles has been established. The biographical nature of the male protagonist’s image in her prose work has been considered. An interpretative analysis of the mythological images and symbols in Droste’s epistles from the cycle “Gedichte vermischten Inhalt” has been performed.Conclusions. Droste’s creative palette is characterized by the richness and diversity of semantic fields of the concept “love” and the skilful use of the system of mythological images to maximize the author’s representation of the multidimensional nature of the lyrical characters’ feelings, including both their emotional reaction and critical view of life. Either in poetry or in prose, Droste highlights two categories of love relationships: love-passion and love-friendship. The study of the works from different periods of the author’s life has revealed that the above mentioned duality of love was clearly realized by Droste, and thus was represented in her literary work, both in the early periods and in the cycles of 1842–1844. The fundamental feature of representing the romantic feelings of Droste’s characters is unconditionality: the lyrical characters rely on their own past and do not hesitate to draw strength and inspiration for further personal searches and shared experiences.Key words: biographicality, system of mythological images, mythological symbol, epistle, creative palette. Метою представленого дослідження є аналіз творчого арсеналу А.фон Дросте-Гюльсхоф для розкриття теми любові у поетичних творах з різних періодів творчості майстрині та у її незавершеному романі «Bei uns zu Lande auf dem Lande». За мету також поставлено встановлення кореляції фактів особистого життя авторки і висловлень її ліричних героїв щодо роман-тичних стосунків та пошуку любові та взаємності у коханні.Методи. Дослідження ґрунтується на загальнонаукових методах аналізу і включає біографічний, семантико-стилістичний та порівняльний методи, лінгво-поетичну інтерпретацію, а також контекстуальний інтерпретаційний аналіз.Результати. Результати дослідження дозволили встановити тяжіння А.фон Дросте-Гюльсхоф до зображення двох видів любовних стосунків, а також засоби вербалізації концепту «кохання». На основі біографічного методу встановлено кореляцію між біографічними фактами та проблематикою у любовних стосунках персонажів двох поетичних циклів авторки. Розглянуто біографічність образу головного чоловічого героя у прозовому творі. Здійснено інтерпретаційний аналіз міфообразів та сим-волів у епістолах А.фон Дросте-Гюльсхоф з циклу «Gedichte vermischten Inhalt». Висновки. Творча палітра А.фон Дросте-Гюльсхоф характеризується багатством і розмаїттям семантичних полів концепту «кохання» та майстерним використанням системи міфообразів для максимальної реалізації авторського представлення усієї багатоплановості почуттів ліричних героїв, зокрема як емоційної реакції і одночасно критичного погляду на власне життя. Як у поетичній творчості, так і у прозових творах А.фон Дросте-Гюльсхоф висвітлює дві категорії любовних стосунків: любов-пристрасть та любов-дружбу. Дослідження творів різних періодів життя авторки демонструє, що вище названа подвійність любові була чітко усвідомленою А.фон Дросте-Гюльсхоф і, відповідно, втілена в літературній творчості, як у ранніх періодах, так і в циклах 1842–1844 років. Фундаментальною ознакою представлення романтичних почуттів персонажів А.фон Дросте-Гюльсхоф є беззастережність: ліричні герої спираються на власне минуле і не вагаючись черпають сили і натхнення для подальших поодиноких пошуків і спільних переживань.Ключові слова: біографічність, система міфообразів, міфологічний символ, епістола, творча палітра.
