Celebration Of Anniversary Research Articles

Литературный диалог столицы и провинции: юбилейные циклы в «Южном крае»

The method of constructing dialogical relations between the regional edition and the all-Russian cultural discourse is considered. On the material of the pre-revolutionary issues of the Kharkov newspaper “Southern Edge” (1900–1905; 1914–1917), conclusions are drawn about the poetics of the “anniversary cycles” dedicated to honoring the memory of N.V. Gogol, V.A. Zhukovsky, N.A. Nekrasov, A.P. Chekhov and other Russian and foreign writers. The scientific novelty of the work lies in the attempt to discover patterns in the coverage of literary celebrations on the pages of the provincial press. The relevance of the paper is due to the fact that the study of the representation of general literary phenomena in the “Southern Edge” makes it possible to identify forms of communication between Russian literature and journalism at the beginning of the 20th century. Particular attention is paid to the genres and speech design of the anniversary cycles. The classification and plots of materials that are receptive in relation to the literary canon of the 19th century are presented. The key substantive aspects in the actualization of the works are highlighted: “Demon”, “Who is happy in Russia”, “The Government Inspector”, “Dead Souls” etc. The functional nature of the interpretation of the classics and coverage of anniversary celebrations is determined: enlightening readers, building links with the capital's periodicals, entry into the common cultural space of Russia and Europe, the formation of historical and literary memory.

Пушкинские торжества 1949 года и пьеса К. Г. Паустовского "Наш современник"

The article tends to grasp the Pushkin Myth in Konstantin Paustovsky’s works. The author explores the influence of the official commemorative discourse of the Pushkin celebrations of 1949 (the 150th anniversary of Pushkin’s 26 birth) on the play “Our Contemporary”. She also examines Paustovsky’s essays which depict the writer’s visits to Pushkinskye Gory, where the poet’s estate was located. The article enlightens the historical and cultural context of “Our Contemporary”. The method of discourse analysis was applied to the speeches of Konstantin Simonov and Sergey Vavilov. The analysis is based on the conception of Pierre Nora’s lieu de mémoire as well. The first part of the article describes the key components of the commemorative discourse of the 1937 and 1949 anniversary celebrations. During the postwar period, a certain allusiveness emerges in the texts on Pushkin, which could be explained as a consequence of manipulation with linear time that resulted in definite historical parallels between the 1812 War and the Great Patriotic War. At that time, the Pushkin celebrations were focused on regional lieux de mémoire. Thus, Tsarskoye Selo and Pushkinskye Gory were quickly restored after the war to demonstrate the power and growth of the USSR. The second part of the article pinpoints on an inner opposition of Paustovsky’s works to the solemn anniversary rhetoric of Pushkin’s celebrations of the 1930s–1940s. In his essays, Paustovsky decreases ritual pathos that official speeches about Pushkin and Pushkin’s places contain. He emphasizes the metaphors of devastation and abandonment unusual in Pushkin commemorative discourse. The prevalent image of monumental Pushkin is replaced by a depiction of a real man who was transformed after his death into the genius loci of Mikhailovskoye estate. The third part of the article is the analysis of the architectonics of “Our Contemporary”. The opposition of two locations – Odessa and Mikhailovskoye – constitutes the composition of the play. However, scenes that occur in Odessa and Pskov Governorate include hidden parallels that materialize in common motifs, locations, and personage’s functions. The issue that is explored in the concluding part of the research is how Paustovsky’s play refers to a campaign against “cosmopolitanism”. The blending of Pushkin’s poems and ideological implications produces a complicated interaction between authenticity and artificiality. Paustovsky applies the rhetoric of the Cold War period in a broad context (e.g., use of the adjective “rootless”). He provides a different interpretation of the Pushkin myth as an object of people’s love and worship. Personages referred to the people are regarded as witnesses who give testimony on the poet’s life. They also positively appraise the poet’s “words”. The author concludes that “Our Contemporary” reflects the pivotal issues and motifs of Soviet commemorative discourse of the Pushkin celebrations. Nonetheless, Paustovsky describes the poet not as a monument but as a genius loci. Focus on everyday life and the incorporation of Pushkin’s poems reinforce the image of the poet as a private person. Other characters give testimonies that constitute Pushkin’s biography.

The Conference “Young Leaders in Library Science” is a Platform for Ideas and Discussions

The International Scientific and Practical Conference “Young Leaders in Library Science” was held for the first time by the Russian State Library (RSL) in September 2022 as part of celebration of the 160th anniversary of the Moscow Public Museum and Rumyantsev Museum with the participation of the National Library of Russia (NLR) and the Section 31 on scientific research work of the Russian Library Association (RLA). The idea of the conference — to identify the present and future leaders of scientific projects and research in the modern library and information sphere of the country — has no analogues.The conference was attended by representatives of the Lomonosov Moscow State University, the National Research University — Higher School of Economics and the leading universities of Moscow that train staff for libraries — the Moscow State Linguistic University and the Moscow State Institute of Culture. For the first time, the results of the All-Russian monitoring of the staffing needs of libraries in 2022 in terms of the presence of young and qualified specialists in the sector were presented to the wide audience.For two days, three sections worked at the conference site: “Scientific research: in libraries, about libraries, for libraries”, “Applied scientific research in the library field: modern approaches and results” and “Library personnel: higher and additional professional education”. The latter was timed to the 100th anniversary of organization of specialized professional training of librarians within the RSL (1922—2022).511 participants from 9 neighbouring countries have previously registered to participate in the conference. 68 reports and papers of specialists from federal, regional, municipal, university libraries, universities, scientific organizations from 24 regions of Russia and three CIS countries were presented. The speakers were students and postgraduates, 8 doctors of sciences and 29 candidates of sciences, as well as managers and practitioners engaged in applied research as part of their direct work. Following the results of the conference, the collection of the best reports will be published in 2023.243 full-time participants attended the conference; the broadcasts of the events were viewed 2,243 times only at the time of its closure.The result of the conference was to identify the most relevant topics of scientific research in the area of library science, bibliography science and book studies, as well as specialists who will develop library science in the coming years and who will work in these scientific areas.

Sympathy in the Works of Maria Konopnicka – a Category Originating in the Gospel or an Example of a Secularised Attitude to Social Relations

The year 2022 has been declared the Year of Maria Konopnicka by the Sejm of the Republic of Poland. The celebration of the 180th anniversary of her birth should be an occasion to reread her rich legacy and to look at various aspects of her life. The unique nature of Konopnicka’s work, as well as reductionist attempts to approach her biography, led the authors of this study to find a bridge connecting her life and work with the Gospel message from which she drew inspiration in the category of somatic sympathy. The philosophical category of somatic sympathy (symphysis) has been adopted on theological grounds, and its depth and universal character make it also transferable to literary studies, such as somatopoetics. This article proves that the category of somatic sympathy can be fully understood through the person and work of Jesus of Nazareth, and that it is one of the characteristics of Maria Konopnicka’s literary works.

Students' responses to Maria Grzegorzewska's Letters to a Young Teacher

The problem of the article is situated in the field of pedeutology and concerns specific resources of pedagogical knowledge, generating personal pedagogical theories of students preparing to perform the profession of early education teacher. The celebration of the 100th anniversary of the Maria Grzegorzewska University and the celebration of the year 2022 as the Year of Maria Grzegorzewska were considered by the authors as unique opportunities to confront the thought of the patroness, her pedagogical credo contained in Letters to a Young Teacher with the reflection of contemporary young adults inspired to speak by the content of the correspondence. The direct stimulus prompting first-year preschool and early childhood pedagogy students in the 2019 and 2020 academic years to reflect on the role of the teacher was the reading of a selected Letters ...by Maria Grzegorzewska. After reading its, students wrote responses to the patroness of their university in the form of quasi-formal essays, the content of which was then analyzed to reconstruct the dominant themes. This paper presents selected results of the qualitative content analysis. The students' statements are organized according to the temporal criterion, as they report their past educational experiences, refer to the present, and also outline a vision of the anticipated role of a teacher in the future, after the stage of academic education has been completed. The main conclusions confirm the lasting vitality of pedagogical thought of the University's founder among contemporary young people. Outlined student collective portrait of the teaching profession is not overly idealized and devoid of features, hope arouses critical reflection of students on the role of the teacher in modern times

Food Toxicology and Food Safety: Report of the 3rd International Electronic Conference on Foods: Food, Microbiome, and Health-A Celebration of the 10th Anniversary of Foods' Impact on Our Wellbeing.

The 300th Anniversary of Romanov House: Celebrations in Barnaul and Biysk

The article is devoted to the process of managing and holding celebrations in 1913 on the occasion of the 300th anniversary of Romanov House on the example of the provincial cities of Barnaul and Biysk. The celebration was one of the key events in the prewar life of the Russian Empire. The anniversary date was positioned as an important state-patriotic event. The preparatory work for the upcoming event took several years. Special commissions, which included representatives of local authorities and the public, were established in provincial towns. The author notes that these commissions were engaged not only in drawing up a plan for holding festive celebrations on February 21, 1913, but also in perpetuating the memory of the anniversary date on the scale of their locality. For example, in Barnaul, the building of the city school was given the name "In memory of the 300th anniversary of Romanov House". The assignment of special scholarships in honor of anniversary events to students of local educational institutions was widely practiced. The success of the celebrations was based on the experience of the centenary of the Patriotic War (1912) and the joint efforts of the clergy, various departments and ministries. The celebration of the 300th anniversary of Romanov House was the last major solemn event of the Russian Empire.

Ювілейна грушевськіана 1966 року: проблематика, інтерпретації, полеміки

Мета статті – з’ясувати особливості рецепції українськими закордонними істориками наукової та суспільно-політичної діяльності М. Грушевського в контексті відзначення його столітнього ювілею. Методологія дослідження передбачає використання принципів історизму й об’єктивності, а також загальнонаукових і спеціально-історичних методів історіографічного дослідження. Наукова новизна статті полягає у спробі всебічної реконструкції історіографічного ефекту відзначення українськими закордонними інтелектуалами столітнього ювілею М. Грушевського. Висновки. Узагальнений різноплановий матеріал дозволяє переконливо ствердити, що столітній ювілей М. Грушевського став визначною подією в інтелектуальному житті закордонного українства. Незважаючи на стереотипність мислення частини діаспорних діячів, завдяки широкій медійній промоції та численним громадським і науковим ініціативам персональну дату визначного вченого вдалося перетворити на важливе для консолідації еміграційної спільноти свято української культури. В підсумку постали численні новаторські за актуалізованою проблематикою історіографічні студії. Їхні автори у своїх реконструкціях життя та діяльності М. Грушевського виходили з урахування все більш широкого кола пізнавальних перспектив та інтелектуальних контекстів. А жваве обговорення цих праць, поява провокативних інтерпретацій (наприклад, О. Пріцака), громадський резонанс багатьох ініціатив сприяли стабільності «тонусу» історіографічного інтересу. Все це уможливило постання дисциплінарної ініціативи Л. Винара по започаткуванню наукового грушевськознавства. Динамічність поступу цієї українознавчої галузі в наступні десятиліття дозволяє ствердити потужність даного ювілейними заходами історіографічного імпульсу.

Celebrating the Women-to-Women Tech Ideas Dedicated to Women Competition: Bridging gaps, changing lives [WIE From Around the World

One of the core pillars of this year’s 25th Anniversary Celebrations was the Women-to-Women (W-to-W) Tech Ideas Dedicated to Women competition, and the results were astounding. A new endeavor intended to celebrate the ingenuity of IEEE Members and their colleagues, especially due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on women in particular, participants from all IEEE Societies and affinity groups were invited to present solutions that would tackle issues in these areas: smart childcare and education; elderly communication and senior safe living; medicine, mental health aid, and security for women; and sustainable environment solutions in rural and urban areas.

‘Words have a charge’: six moments from a dialogue

This conversation contains ‘moments’ from a dialogue between the esteemed scholar Homi K Bhabha and Journal of Visual Culture editor Jae Emerling that took place at Harvard University on 7 March 2022. As part of the 20th anniversary celebrations of the journal’s founding, it was essential to include voices whose work, presence within the world, and poetic insights traverse the entirety of visual culture studies. Bhabha is certainly such a voice for our Editorial Collective, past and present. The goal of this open dialogue, if there is a single one, was to have a real conversation about Bhabha’s vital current projects, which address the socio-economic, political, and cultural dangers facing all of us. But it is also a hopeful discussion about the ‘survival’ of the theoretical humanities in the 21st century. We hope that it reads as dialogic-radiating lines passing through the singular points that shape the history of our present, while always remaining open and attentive to the unforeseen actualizations of the past–future events that compose each of us individually and collectively.

Japanese Dental Society of Anesthesiology Celebrates 50 Years.

The Japanese Dental Society of Anesthesiology (JDSA), with ∼2600 members, celebrated its 50th anniversary with a special banquet after its annual scientific session at the Imperial Hotel Tokyo on Sunday, October 30th, hosted by JDSA President, Professor Takehiko Iijima. Professor Emeritus Yuzuro Kaneko gave the celebration address titled “The History of Japanese Dental Anesthesiology.”Dental anesthesiology in Japan began with physician anesthesiologists who saw the need to train dentists to provide anesthesia for dental and oral & maxillofacial surgery. Professor Yasuya Kubota, a physician who later trained as a dentist, opened the first dental anesthesiology department in Japan at Tokyo Medical and Dental University in 1967. Gradually, virtually every dental school opened their own separate department in the 1970s and 1980s, and these departments began dental anesthesiology residency programs. To manage patients who required hospital admission following surgery, dedicated dental hospitals run jointly by dental anesthesiology and oral & maxillofacial surgery emerged with some facilities having dedicated intensive care units for patients requiring intubation following surgery, such as for head and neck cancer surgery and, as was common in the past, orthognathic surgery. Dental anesthesiology was recognized as one of only 5 dental specialties by the Japanese federal government in 2006.The Japanese Board of Dental Anesthesiology (JBDA) was formed to assess competence in anesthesia care in 1977. With time, 2 examinations were developed – Board Certification (1336 dentists) and Specialist Certification (339 dentists). The examination for JDBA board certified dentists occurs after 2 years of dental anesthesiology residency and allows these dentists to provide conscious sedation (as it is referred to in Japan), including the use of propofol to achieve this level of sedation, in private dental offices. Specialist Certification allows for general anesthesia to be administered in dental offices and generally requires an additional 3 years of training. Oral & maxillofacial surgeons may also provide conscious sedation after their residencies. Unlike in the US, conscious sedation guidelines recommend that the sedation dentist does not participate in the surgical procedure. Deep sedation and general anesthesia may only be provided by dentist anesthesiologists dedicated to anesthesia provision as is the case in all other parts of the world other than North America.At the 50th Anniversary Celebration, congratulations were offered by the presidents of the Japanese Society of Dental Sciences, the Japanese Dental Association, the Japanese Society of Anesthesiology, and various elected officials representing several agencies of government. Greetings and congratulations from the ASDA and the ADSA were made by Dr. Steven Ganzberg, who also lectured at the annual scientific session.We applaud the outstanding research and high level of clinical activity by dental anesthesiology in Japan. We in the US are all proud to have Japanese dental anesthesiologists as our colleagues. We wish the JDSA continued success as we celebrate 50 years of dedication to the art and science of dental anesthesiology with them.Respectfully submitted,

Фармаковский в памяти ученика и друга – Л.А. Моисеева

2023 will mark 95 years since the death of Boris Vladimirovich Farmakovsky (1870–1928), an outstanding scholar, researcher of ancient Olbia, art historian and a scientific leader, who did much for the development of archaeology in Russia, for its continuity in the era of change of political system. Archaeologist Lavrentiy A. Moiseev, who was one of B. V. Farmakovsky’s disciples (1882–1946) and the director of the Chersonesos museum, wrote a text in December 1919 that remained unpublished. It is devoted to the 25th anniversary of Boris Vladimirovich’s scholarly activity and is not only an example of an anniversary celebration genre commonly recognised in academic life, not only a document of the epoch reflecting the time when it was composed – “separation of the Crimea and Petrograd” period – but also a fragment of memoirs about the university life and the atmosphere in S.-Petersburg of the early 20th century. The proposed article is devoted to the publication of this text, and also concerns the relationship between the two scholars in the period of the Russian Civil War.

DISCOVERY OF ADAPTATIONAL REACTIONS: A NEW MILESTONE IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF ONCOLOGY

The celebration of the 90th anniversary of the National Medical Research Centre for Oncology at the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation in the past 2021 expanded its time frame due to other anniversaries that are inextricably linked with the scientific activities of the Rostov Cancer Centre. First of all, this is the 115th anniversary of the birth of M.A. Ukolova, the founder of fundamental research at the Centre for Oncology, the 65th anniversary of the establishment of the experimental department, and the 45th anniversary of the discovery of "Pattern of development of qualitatively differing general nonspecific adaptational reactions of the organism” made by Garkavi L.Kh., Ukolova E. B. and Kvakina E.B.

Milestones of the history (to the 95-th anniversary of the V.V. Dokuchaev Soil Science Institute)

The article considers the logic and periods of V.V. Dokuchaev Soil Science Institute development as well as the driving forces during the mentioned periods and the most important outcomes and tasks for the near future. One can distinguish four main periods in the history of the Institute, they are: organization, sustainable development, survival, revival. Some factors like scientific and organizational structure of the Institute, its contribution to the development of theoretical and applied soil science are considered as the indicators typical of each period. Firstly, the Institute structure during the initial organization period shows the priority of fundamental soil research in the leading areas: soil physics, soil chemistry, soil genesis, biology, etc. Advanced development of theoretical research allowed scientists to promptly respond to actual needs of the developing country: search for soil resources for cultivation of technical crops, development of new territories, land reclamation and hydrotechnical construction. By the 1970s a kind of sustainable scientific and organizational structure had finally formed in the Institute. In the early 90s, the Soil Science Institute entered a critical phase of development. The second decade of the XXI century became a turning point in its fate. A new strategy in the development of scientific activities of the Institute was sorely needed. The new strategy consisted of three interrelated elements. The first one was modernization of the material and technical basis for researches; the second one was strengthening of the human resources potential through attraction of motivated young researchers; and the third one was in establishing unilateral and multilateral interactions between the partners – users of scientific knowledge. The main areas of interaction were the topical issues: food security, global climate change and their implications for the country. It has been shown that society can recognize and support the scientific research only if a constant flow of information, obtained by means of different tools and methods, is provided. The significance of soil science as a fundamental discipline in the socio-economic development of the country was confirmed by the Government Resolution (2022) on the celebration of the 100-th anniversary of the V.V. Dokuchaev Soil Science Institute. The modern noosphere paradigm in soil research poses new challenges to the science, at the forefront of which is V.V. Dokuchaev Soil Science Institute.
