So that this creative business deserves to be developed to become a growing business for the future under the guidance of a village legal entity in the form of an Independent BUMDes.

An Intellectual and a Peasant in Gleb Uspensky’s Cycle “Peasant and Peasant Labor”: Dynamics of Interaction in Context of Idea of “Merging with People”

The cycle of essays by G. I. Uspensky “The Peasant and the Peasant Labor” in the aspect of the actual for Russian literature of the second half of the XIX — early XX centuries problems of relations between the people and the intellectuals are analyzed in the article. The crisis in the study of the “peasant” cycles of Uspensky, caused by the predominance of ideological interpretation, is stated. It is argued that Uspensky finds the key to understanding the peasantry not in the socio-economic conditions of his life, but in the field of aesthetics. The point of convergence, in which the peasant and the intellectual appear as equal subjects of communication, is, according to Uspensky, the aesthetic attitude to work. An implicit correspondence is established between peasant labor and the creative effort of the artist. Therefore, the intellectual turns out to be a necessary mediator in the process of the peasantry acquiring its own “voice”. It is proved that the aesthetic utopia in the cycle “Peasant and Peasant Labor” was crushed by the ethical maximalism of the writer. The peasant economy is represented by the Uspensky reasonably organized order, the anthroposphere, in which the working peasant was likened to the monarch and the Creator. In turn, the intellectual was declared an impostor, marked by the “antichrist” seal. In Uspensky’s creative consciousness, the aesthetic and ethical found themselves in a tragic and hopeless contradiction, and the prospect of “merging with the people” was illusory.

The Goddess on the Vezirhan Stele

The stele from Vezirhan (Istanbul Archaeological Museum, inv. 6219+71.27) is best known for its Old Phrygian and Greek inscriptions (B-05). However, its reliefs also pose an interesting challenge. They include a boar hunt, a ritual banquet scene, and a human figure, commonly identified as a goddess, with lions, birds, and a palmette-like motif “sprouting” from her head. The stele is dated to the late 5th–early 4th century BC. The hunt and banquet scenes clearly belong to this time (and find many parallels on votive and funerary reliefs and seals of Hellespontine Phrygia). The image of the goddess, however, continues a different tradition, one that possibly stems from an earlier period. The Vezirhan goddess doesn’t have a singular prototype, but displays connections to a wide variety of iconographical schemes and details. Most are found in the 7th–6th centuries BC arts of Anatolia and the Aegean. By examining this corpus, with special focus on the Potnia theron iconographic type, we understand that the Vezirhan goddess is related to other deities attested in Anatolia (in fact, her name might have been a variation of Artemis, according to line 3 of the Phrygian inscription). Yet, she cannot be identified with any of them directly. For all matches, there are also differences. A certain creative effort was made to distinguish the goddess from her peers, possibly to reflect her local cult. In my talk, I would like to unfold this synthetic image, examine its components, and try to put them back together – and hopefully gain some insight into how the Vezirhan goddess’ iconographic scheme came to be.

Memórias de um cárcere voluntário. José Eduardo Agualusa, Teoria geral do esquecimento

Memories from a voluntary prison. A general theory of oblivion by José Eduardo Agualusa The paper presents an analysis of A general theory of oblivion, a novel by José Eduardo Agualusa, in light of the Portuguese postcolonial paradigm, specifically by Boaventura de Sousa Santos. It presents the trajectory of the protagonist, Ludovica, as a hybrid of a representant of the past, colonial tradition and a habitant of the emerging postcolonial reality. Agualusa shows two strategies of dealing with those conditions and, in a creative effort of constructing a new Angolan identity, positions himself on the side of the memory perpetuated through time.

USING ART WORKS AS INSPIRATION SOURCES IN STUDIO COURSES OF FASHION DESIGN EDUCATION

The aim of fashion design education is to teach creativity to students by means of gaining relevant knowledge, skill and attitudes. For this purpose, teachers can follow various teaching strategies in different courses. One of the instructional strategies developed to teach creativity in studio courses, which are the main courses of the fashion design education program, is to request from students to develop solutions for different design problems using various inspiration sources. In this process, which is based on creative practice-based research, students can design products by employing many different sources of inspiration. One of these inspiration sources is the art works which are also the result of a creative effort. In this context, the main aim of this research is to examine the contribution of using art works as a source of inspiration for the development of students' creativity in the Fashion Design I course which is one of the studio courses of fashion design program and to interpret from design samples. For this purpose, different ways students use to turn a creative work that they are inspired from into new clothes are determined. The research method is qualitative according to the problem and the path followed in solving this problem. The criterion sampling method was used to determine the research sample. To obtain the research data semi-structured interviews were conducted with students. Keywords: fashion design, art works, inspiration sources, studio course

POSTER ART AND THE INNOVATIVE PRACTICES IN ART PEDAGOGY

The presented research highlights the innovative charge in the poster tasks as an essential part of the educational work in fine arts. With its essence of an artistic-aesthetic phenomenon with a strong public resonance, the poster focuses on the communicative functions of graphic design. It is in its field that students can express their attitude to all current problems of the present day. Modern technologies allow quick contact with the top achievements in poster art. The digital methods for polygraphic realization allow for the expeditious circulation of the students’ poster works and their introduction in the public environment. In the space of these pictorial tasks the art pedagogue creates preconditions for the teenagers to be more empathetic, more active and creative in their striving to join noble causes. This graphic genre would transform the negative impulses of society into a creative effort, which forms the self-confidence of students that from an object of multifaceted aggressive social influences they become a subject with an active position. The idea is that poster tasks are a reliable means of overcoming the inertia of layered methodological stereotypes.

Editorial introduction

Welcome to this Fourth Special Issue of Molecular Biology of the Cell on Forces on and within Cells. As with our other Special Issues, the journal’s goal here is to focus attention on a major new direction in cell biology. In this case, it is the field of mechanobiology, which endeavours, broadly, to understand how mechanical forces are harnessed to drive cellular function and how force can also be a mode of biological information that regulates cell behavior. The collection of papers that we have in this issue reflects many current efforts to address these questions. While each of these papers is a distinct creative effort of its authors, I would like to draw your attention to a number of themes that emerge across these diverse studies.
