КУЛЬТУРОЛОГИЧЕСКИЕ АСПЕКТЫ СОВРЕМЕННОГО ПРОФЕССИОНАЛЬНОГО ОБРАЗОВАНИЯ: ОТ ПРОФЕССИОНАЛА К ТРАНСФЕССИОНАЛУ

The article substantiates the response of modern professional education to the training of a multidimensional specialist who is able to work with multiple aspects, ready to generate situational meaning and discursive knowledge. His key character feature is the ability to communicate: both to an open dialogue in multidisciplinary teams, and to a reflexive perception of one's own flexible professional identity. The education system responds to this request with the creation of communication ability. It is concluded that the educational space is reoriented to the generation of common meaning, as the principles and goals of communicative didactics become a support for the disclosure of the pedagogy of meaning, understanding, and co-creation.

Male or Female: An Analysis of the Two Couples in “White Tigers” in The Woman Warrior

The Woman Warrior, written by Maxine Hong Kingston, depicts some either real or imaginary stories focusing on five women, with several male images connected with those mainly portrayed females. However, the two couples in “White Tigers” maintain a kind of harmonious relationship and bear some subversive character features, compared with others in the novel, even in other literary works. This paper makes an analysis of the two couples’ major characteristics through close reading, explores the probable causes by seeking the cultural origins and from the perspective of historical criticism, and then draws the conclusion that the two couples are testaments to androgyny, which, indeed, cannot go without Eastern philosophy, Western mythology and the experiences of Maxine Hong Kingston.

Similarities between “The Secret History of the Mongols” and Turkish Epic (“Moğolların Gizli Tarihi” destanı ile türk destanı arasındaki benzerlikler)

Many similarities existing in the epics of the Mongols and the Turkish allow to research common literary-cultural features in these works. The Book of Dede Gorgud and “The Secret History of the Mongols” as remarkable examples of nation’s heroic works both have similar and common ideas. The purpose of the research work consists of comparatively analyzing social-cultural life, abundant historical past, folk and ethnography of nations. The epics are linked to each other in terms of people’s views, condition of emergence, similar motives, features of characters, religious beliefs, and they allow us to compare those similarities. Main method of research work is comparative analysis. Common subject of the epics is heroism, protection of motherland and struggle against enemies. Motives regarding courage and bravery against attacks of other tribes are fully demonstrated in the tales. Heroism, capture, revenge are common themes used in the epics. And these themes are reflected in the stories of important characters and they stress loyalty and courage of those men. Main character of Mongol epic is Temujin who is later named Genghis khan, conquerer of the world. Genghis khan governed his state thanks to his intelligence and wit, enlarged defence units of the country. In the example of Salur Gazan, Bamsi Beyrek, Ganturali from the stories of “The Book of Dede Gorgud” motives of heroism, devotion and loyalty are emphasized. Men of Oguz gained names for their deeds, courage, bravery. Mongolian and Turkish epics are closely related to the events happened in the history and portray traces of ancient history of these nations. National-moral values and abundance of lifestyle of the Mongols and Oguz people are very evident in the mentioned epics

문화계발이론과 확장된 계획행동이론을 적용한 테마파크 방문객의 행동의도 연구 : 한국민속촌 SNS홍보를 통한 캐릭터체험 방문객을 대상으로

This study is aimed to understand the leading experience features of character experiencing visitors in the theme parks. To investigate the intrinsic and extrinsic behavioral motives, differences between the expanded planned behavioral factors and recognition on the behavioral intention by the social media usages and intrinsic factors to affect the behavioral intention were confirmed, applying the theory of cultural development and the theory of expanded planned behavior. First, upon the t-test results on the expanded planned behavioral factors among the groups that used the social media classified by using hours and video watching hours of social media, significant differences of responses were found only the upper and lower groups of watching hours. Second, upon the regression analysis by models on the behavioral intention of expanded planned behavioral factors, all the variables except the attitude to the behaviors showed the significant impact in the expanded model using all the variables, and the influential power showed in the order of attachment and prior knowledge; and perceived behavioral control and subjective norms. The study results are anticipated to be used as the fundamental data to suggest the new development direction of the event spots and tourist attractions that faced the limitations on the motivation of revisits as well as contents.

Character features of uttered free indirect speech by the example of Marina Tsvetaeva’s prose and letters

The purpose of this work is to identify the character features of the uttered free indirect speech in the prose works of Marina Tsvetaeva (stories, novels and letters) and to analyze its functioning in the author’s text field. The object of the study requires: 1) to review the scientific literature on the problem of free indirect speech, 2) to select and analyze factual material from the stories, novels and letters of M. I. Tsvetaeva, illustrating the theoretical positions put forward in the work. Based on the structural and semantic classification proposed by the Belorussian linguist E.Ya. Kus’ko, the authors of the article describe the distinctive features of various types of uttered free indirect speech: thematic speech, hidden speech, speech in the speech, collective speech, and quotation speech. It is concluded that the latter type of uttered free indirect speech finds the greatest application in the prose texts of the outstanding Russian poet of the twentieth century, whereas M. I. Tsvetaeva resorts to uttered free indirect speech very rarely, which is due to the specifics of the poet's idiostyle.

SPЕCIAL CHILDREN. PERSONAL ORNAMENTS IN CHILDREN’S BURIALS OF MARIUPOL TYPE

The region of the Lower Dnieper was an outstanding landscape phenomenon in prehistoric times. During the Stone Age, this area had great economic and sacral significance. There are more than 20 Mesolithic and Neolithic cemeteries of the so called Mariupol type, located along the Lower Dnieper Rapids. The anthropological analysis demonstrated that the population of Middle Dnieper region belongs to the Proto-European large Europoid race. Periodisation of the Mariupol type cemeteries have two periods: Early Mariupol: 7000—5500 cal BC and Late Mariupol: 5500—4000 cal BC. The burials of the Mariupol type have outstanding grave goods. Raw materials used for used for manufacturing adornments were deer canines, carp fish teeth, stone, pearls and shells. Some burials yielded notched decorated canines. The most outstanding feature of the Mariupol type funerary adornments is the large number of items made from modified boar tusks. Most of them were found in the Mariupol cemetery. These artifacts, which may have marked the membership to a certain group, occurred equally both in adult and children burials. Child burials of the Mariupol type yielded specific funerary adornments. Sometimes they were as rich as those of the adults, but in some cases they were the richest. Personal ornaments, semantically identifying the important parts of a child’s body, were the marker of clan or lineage affiliation, age differentiation or biological stage. Burials with indicating features of a special sacral character are very significant also. The availability of children burials, which have more abundant funerary adornments then the adults, or were the only burials with grave goods in the cemetery need a more thorough study.

\u201cNing\xfan lugar sagrado\u201d de Rodrigo Rey Rosa: una ficci\xf3n paranoica desde la di\xe1spora centroamericana

This paper analyzes “Ningún lugar sagrado” (1998) by the Guatemalan writer Rodrigo Rey Rosa as a ‘ficción paranoica’ (“La ficción paranoica”, Clarín, 10 de octubre de 1991; Blanco nocturno, Anagrama, Barcelona, 2010). I will explain that Rey Rosa’s short story does not include univocal clues to identify the protagonist as an unreliable narrator whose overinterpretations give rise to a misrepresentation of the facts. According to my reading of “Ningún lugar sagrado”, the paranoiac features of the main character contribute to the ambiguity of the text that, in fact, never explicitly confirms or discredits his persecutory ideas. Following this line of argument, I suggest that Rey Rosa’s short story narrates an “imaginario de amenaza” (“La ficción paranoica”, Clarín, 10 de octubre de 1991) that, alluding to the climate of repression, intrigues and complicities in postwar Guatemala, generates paranoia –including that of the reader. “Ningún lugar sagrado” points to a more general tendency in recent Central American literature that, from the realm of fiction, highlights the widespread nature of paranoia in the region. Unlike social discourses that discuss the topic, these literary texts make use of narrative techniques that do not necessarily respond to a referential notion of truth (including hyperboles, digressions, irony and narrative ambiguity), when constructing the voice of a paranoiac character. According to my perspective, such narrative techniques lend themselves especially to capturing the alienating dimensions of violence in Central America where paranoia, rather than being a question of truth or exaggeration, constitutes a survival strategy.

Creativity of Vasyl Avramenko and his contribution to Ukrainian and world culture

The purpose of this article is to establish the contribution of Ukrainian ballet master, choreographer, director and pedagogue Vasyl Kyrylovych Avramenko to the Ukrainian and world art. Avramenko’s native country has been silent about his work for a long time, although the artist has made the Ukrainian dance famous all over the world. He was one of the first to start shooting films on the Ukrainian topic in the USA. His activity was always aimed at developing the Ukrainian art, regardless of the country he lived in. The research methodology consists of a range of methods: historical, biographical, theoretical. The abovementioned methodological approach allows studying the question of historical data relating to the events in Ukraine that led to the emigration waves, find out certain biographical facts and analyze the artist’s creative activity. The scientific novelty of the thesis is in systemizing the artist’s biographical data, studying his contribution to developing the Ukrainian culture (Ukrainian dance and cinema) in Ukraine and abroad, seeking to define the special features of dramatic characters created by the artist. Conclusions: The artist had not lived in the native land for a long time (until 1924), as it was a hard time for our country, but it did not prevent V. Avramenko from engaging in creative activity. Setting an example of his personal performance of folk dances, the artist communicated the values of folklore art and its powerful educational potential. The performances of the choreographer and his students conveyed the love for the native land and symbolism of Ukrainian dance, which was reflected in artist’s other creative projects, particularly in cinema.

ENGLISH ANIMALISTIC SET PHRASES OF VERBAL SEMANTICS AND THEIR UKRAINIAN EQUIVALENTS

The article deals with the ways of rendering English animalistic components in verbal set phrases by their Ukrainian equivalents. It gives a contemporary definition of a phraseological unit. The approaches to scholastic analysis, pro- posed in the article are based on understanding phraseology as a semantic phenomenon, in which the comparison of its units in different languages is realized in establishing correlation of both their generalized figurative meaning and the inner form that motivates them, actively supporting a high connotative potential. The article also gives the definition of phrase formation as a doctrine, dealing with regular processes of arising and meaning development of phraseological units, applying diachronic and synchronic approaches to the investigation. The principles of A.V. Koonin’s phraseological conception and his method of phraseological identification have been underlain in the study. In addition to this, the descriptive method and the analysis of dictionary definitions from several explanatory and phraseological dictionaries in both languages compared have been used for achieving higher objectivity in representing the results of the research. The whole corpus of the empirical material analysis demonstrated the existence of the following 5 phraseological animalistic subgroups: 1) animalistic phrases designating an extensive field of usual human actions and behaviour; 2) information about the state and feeling of a person; 3) the description of mutual relations among people; 4) time-indicating animalistic verbal phrases; 5) animalistic verbal phrases of quantitative action representation. Each of these groups has been analyzed in detail and exemplified with a number of phrases from both languages compared. The author draws a general conclusion that an animalistic component in English verbal phrase formation is more frequently used than in Ukrainian. As far as semantic peculiarities are concerned, it has been noted that the features of character that are ascribed to a certain group of people by animalistic components in both languages for the most part do not coincide.

INTERNET COMMUNICATION AS A SOURCE OF NICKNAMES

The article considers the modern type of anthroponyms, which is actively used in the youth environment. In modern communication on the Internet, there are lexemes with the function of naming a person-nicknames used as nicknames. This work is devoted to the study of these language units. The names of chats of Russian-speaking Internet communication users served as the material for our research. The linguistic creativity of modern Internet users when creating nicknames expands the scope of well-known classifications, as a result of which the criteria for their selection are supplemented. The basis for the classification of nicknames in this work are: features of appearance and character; preferences, Hobbies, occupation; symbolism associated with a particular animal, etc.; mythologems; graphics; wordplay; situational. These criteria cannot limit the classification, which remains open and is constantly updated. The allocation data and the new criteria due to linguistic and creative activities of users in the field of Internet communication.

Translation Challenges in Rendering Idiolects of Literary Characters

The article focuses on the challenges in rendering idiolects of literary characters. Idiolect as a means of speech characterisation of personages enables the researchers to see personages as linguistic personalities. Idiolects can fulfil several functions: comparative, psychological, distinctive, and characterising. It is shown that an integral character image is only possible to depict taking into consideration the specific features of characters’ idiolects, which help the reader to discern a character’s social status, age, educational background, gender, and emotional state. The aim of the article is to identify the challenges in rendering idiolects of literary characters, such as phonetic distortion of words, non-equivalent lexis, and non-standard syntax and to examine the relevant translation strategies and tactics of idiolect reproduction. Based on a comparative analysis of the original and translated texts, the research yielded a number of translation strategies such as the strategy of maximum preservation of idiolect characteristics and the strategy of partial preservation of idiolect characteristics. In the framework of the strategy of maximum preservation of idiolect characteristics, the tactic of parallel translation, the tactic of applying functional equivalents and the tactic of phonetic matching are singled out. In the framework of the strategy of partial preservation of idiolect characteristics, the tactics of compensation, omission, preservation, and substitution are singled out.

ROLE OF ENGLISH AFFIXOIDS IN MODERN UKRAINIAN, RUSSIAN AND FRENCH

AbstractBackground. The article is devoted to the influence of borrowed affixoids on the wordbuildingsubsystems of the target languages.
 Purpose. The aim of the article is to reveal the peculiarities of the influence of borrowingsfrom English on the word-building subsystem of the target languages and namely to define the roleof affixoids in productive ways of modern word-building. The aim preconditions the performing ofthe following tasks: analysis of the nature of affixoids; revealing peculiarities of borrowed affixoidsfunctioning in target languages.
 Methods. In the article the following methods are used: 1) for detecting the volume andmeaning of the term affixoid the method of the review of the existing literature has been used; 2) forrevealing the constituent parts of the lexical units the method of distributive has been used; 3) fordescribing the peculiarities of quasi-composites and existing word-patterns the methods ofonomasiological and formal analysis have been used.
 Results. If one analyses the appearance of the affixoid. -gate, it is necessary to take intoconsideration, that it is formed due to the so-called “intercalated” or “telescopic” formation ofnew words, when one word is “inserted” into another, as a result of which an unusual, occasionalformation appears. In modern Ukrainian and Russian we can reveal the development of newmeaning which is absolutely different from the primary meaning. Some people are even sure that -gate is the synonym of the word scandal.
 Borrowing word-forming models is another character feature of language that causes theappearance of quasi-composites. In French, for example, it is possible to observe the interestingphenomenon of borrowing not structural parts, but word-building samples. The presence of “falseEnglishisms” in the French language proves once again that very often not only separate words areborrowed, but also word-forming material.
 Discussion. Processes of borrowing influence the target languages in many different ways.The most common of them is direct borrowing, assimilation of concrete lexical units. But recentlythe facts of influence of the source language have become more and more common, so processes ofborrowing have an impact not only on the lexical subsystem of the target language, but also on theword-building level by assimilating productive affixes and affixoids, as well as common wordbuildingpatterns and models. The field of affixoids still requires new linguistic research, especiallyin connection with the processes of borrowing and the tendency of the modern languages tosimplification. It is very important to observe new ways of enriching vocabulary where assimilationof foreign affixoids is becoming more and more productive. The independent functioning ofaffixoids in target languages is also worth describing and analyzing.

Gambling disorder seeking treatment patients and tobacco use in relation to clinical profiles

ObjectivesTobacco smoking and gambling disorder (GD) often co-occur. However, few studies have assessed the extent to which cigarette smoking may serve to classify and/or better define GD behaviour profiles. MethodsAmong a large sample of n = 3,652 consecutive treatment-seeking patients with GD (91% men). Smokers were compared to non-smokers across different sociodemographic, clinical, psychopathological and personality variables. The effect sizes for the means and the proportion differences between the groups were estimated. An evaluation of the smoking changes over the last 15 years was also performed. ResultsFrom the total sample, 62.4% of gamblers reported tobacco use. A decreasing linear trend in tobacco use was observed within the studied period, women having a more irregular pattern. The use of tobacco was linked to the use of alcohol and other illegal drugs. Gamblers who smoke, as compared to those who don’t, presented lower education levels, lower social position indexes and active employment. They were younger, with an earlier age of onset, shorter duration of the gambling behavior, higher GD severity, more psychological symptoms, higher scores in novelty seeking and lower scores in reward dependence, self-directedness and self-transcendence. ConclusionsGamblers seeking treatment who smoke display particular social, clinical, psychological, temperamental and character features different from non-smoking gamblers, suggesting that the presence or absence of comorbid smoking condition in GD should always be considered when developing an optimal treatment, as gamblers who smoke might need treatment strategies different from non-smoking gamblers.

<SKY 캐슬> 드라마의상의 기호학적 해석 : Peirce의 기호이론을 중심으로

Drama costumes are visual art that help define characters in a story. They are an effective tool for expression that help viewers understand and relate to the character and drama. Accordingly, this study aims to prove that drama costumes have semiotic roles in visual image communication using Peirce’s semiotics. An analysis method derived from Peirce’s semiotics theory was created to analyze the drama costumes of Sky castle, which reflected character images and internal meaning. As a result, Peirce’s semiotics theory could be used to interpret the drama costumes of SKY Castle, which is divided into the characterization of drama costumes (reconstruction of icon signs), linguistic sign of character images (reconstruction of index sign), and the analysis of character personality (reconstruction of symbols). Therefore, by investigating the semiotic roles that drama costumes play in visual image communication, features of characters can be discerned. This study provides a meaningful framework for various interpretations in analyzing drama costumes.

The impact of the Mobile Legend game in creating virtual reality

Online games have been very popular nowadays, more than games played by children and teenagers 30 years ago. This study aims to explore technological developments that people are interested in, namely the phenomenon of the emergence of the online game Mobile Legend. Mobile Legend has succeeded in making Indonesians interested because of its avatar, message feature, and buying and selling of online characters in one application. The evolution of online games from PC to Smartphone makes it easier for gamers to play games anywhere and anytime. Not infrequently, they can spend up to 6 hours a day looking for internet network access. Researchers use determinism theory to answer this phenomenon. The method in this study uses a qualitative type with a virtual ethnographic method. In addition, this research collects data on using virtual tracing to record and documenting virtual activities, and interviews with seven informants of Mobile Legends' players. This research shows that when a person plays games, he can become more apathetic and minimize interaction and communication with the social environment around him. Technology like Mobile Legend has eroded the socio-cultural side and communication sensitivity of an individual in society. All users also become more active and narcissistic in creating multiple identities that exist in the virtual world. So this research shows that online games in creating virtual reality have both positive and negative impacts on the players.
