Marina Tsvetaeva Interpreted by Chicca Gagliardo: Expanding the Scope of Russian-Italian Literary Ties

The article examines Tsvetaeva’s trace in the book “The Poet of the Air” by Italian writer Chicca Gagliardo. In the 21st century – at the present stage of Russian literary studies – the problem of dialogue between Russian writers and representatives of world literature is posed and actively studied. While the issue of Marina Tsvetaeva and the Czech Republic has been the subject of extensive research and analysis, and the study on her relationship with France has been published, the same cannot be said for Italy. The relevance of the scientifi c study is incorporating Tsvetaeva’s work into the broader intercultural and international context. The novelty of the work lies in the fact that so far in Russian and Italian literary studies the issue of spiritual dialogue between M. I. Tsvetaeva and Chicca Gagliardo has not been subject of a separate study. The novelty of this study is that neither in Russian nor Italian literary studies has there been a dedicated investigation into the spiritual dialogue between M. I. Tsvetaeva and Chicca Gagliardo. The aim of the article is to trace the presence of Tsvetaeva’s themes and motifs in Gagliardo’s book “The Poet of the Air”. The work used in this paper includes Tsvetaeva’s Collected Works, scholars’ books and articles and websites containing useful information for the research. The biographical and comparative method and the method of comparativist and intertextual analysis form the methodological basis. The results of the study show the role of the Russian poet’s personality and works in the Italian writer’s novel. Tsvetaeva’s themes and motifs in the novel are emphasised, for example the concept of soul, the motifs of the “fl ight of the soul”, insomnia, “captive spirit”, the idea of sky as an abyss and others. We suggest a hypothesis on translations of Tsvetaeva’s works into Italian that Gagliardo might have been familiar with. Gagliardo’s acquaintance with M. Rea’s translation of “Poem of the Air” and S. Vitale’s “Art in the Light of Conscience” is proved. The practical signifi cance of the research lies in the possible use of its materials in the practice of school and university special courses and special seminars on the works of Marina Tsvetaeva and the problem of ‘Russian-Italian cultural and literary ties’. The study allows us to place Marina Tsvetaeva’s work within a broader intercultural and international conception and contributes to the development of Tsvetaeva’s context from an international perspective. The article provides, in particular, a broadening of the scope of the issue “Tsvetaeva’s Reception in Italy”, whereby it can be referred not only to works of realist literature.

(Nie)proszony gość, czyli Derrida na kolacji z Don Juanem. Gościnność w „Zwodzicielu z Sewilli” i „Kamiennym Gościu” według filozofii Jacques’a Derridy

In the 1990s, the French philosopher considered to be the father of deconstructivism, Jacques Derrida, inspired by the opening of European borders, took up the subject of hospitality, dedicating to it a special seminar, the fruit of which are two extensive volumes entitled L’ hospitalité, which are, unfortunately, still not translated into Polish. To illustrate his views, Derrida used literary classics, mainly Oedipus at Colonus by Sophocles. The author’s thesis is that in the most important work of Spanish theater, The Trickster of Seville and the Stone Guest, one can also find arguments fully attesting to Derrida’s philosophy of hospitality. The figure of Don Juan allows us to look at the guest from a broader perspective; it is not necessarily someone benevolent whom it is good to receive. It can also be a complete stranger about whose true intentions we may even have reasonable doubts. However, even in this case, absolute hospitality dictates that we offer them a warm welcome, for it is necessary to welcome a stranger who wishes perhaps to harm and sometimes even kill the host. This is precisely the situation that occurs between Don Juan and the Stone Guest, whose roles in the drama change and mutual hospitality is transformed into “hostility”, a concept created by Derrida, which allows him to give a surprising twist to his reflections on hospitality.

ACADEMIC MOBILITY: PROSPECTS AND ADVANTAGES

The article is devoted to the problem of analyzing the opportunities, advantages, prospects, and difficulties of academic mobility carried out among the teaching staff of higher educational institutions. The implementation of academic mobility in the country for the most part takes place among students. The presence of this work among teachers in higher educational institutions also provides many opportunities for improving the educational process and increases the experience of teachers. First of all, it is an exchange of experience with teachers from other universities, second, work with a new student environment, and thirdly, work with the library fund of the same university. As a proposal, the authors demonstrate the Prevention of these problems by sharing the problems and experiences that have occurred during the implementation of academic mobility through such events as organizing special seminars, holding a round table, and conducting training to conclude as a result of the implementations of academic mobility among teachers of higher educational institutions.

ASPECT-TAXIC RELATIONS THROUGH TYPOLOGY (BASED ON THE MATERIAL OF FRENCH AND RUSSIAN LANGUAGES)

The article attempts to show that in the French and Russian linguistic cultures multidimensional and rather intricate connections develop in the sphere of aspect-taxic relations. In French, such the relationships appear more fully and prominently within the framework of the sequence of tenses. The focus is on the correlation of the action with the moment of speech or with the "point of reference", explicitly or implicitly formed by a specific discursive situation. In the Russian language, aspectual-taxic relations are a complex bicentric or polycentric formation formed within the functional and semantic field of aspectual-temporal relations. Bipolar structures (the so-called taxi pair) are most often considered, one of which is positioned as supporting while the other as a dependent one. The purpose of the study was to identify the inter-categorical relationships that are between the categories of aspect and taxis within the designated linguistic cultures. Materials and methods. The theoretical basis for the proposed analysis is the research which, in our view, most fully covers the issues discussed in the article. The practical basis is the empirical material reflecting complicated and rather filigree relationships of studied in the article grammatical categories. In accordance with the objective, comparative and descriptive methods were used as a methodological basis for linguistic review of factual material. The results of the analysis made during the research may be considered in studying separate sections of theoretical and practical grammar of the French language. The results of the proposed analysis may be used in special courses and special seminars on the contrastive study of languages of different typological nature, as well as serve as a basis for special courses and special seminars on aspectology.

ОСОБЕННОСТИ ПРОЯВЛЕНИЙ ПРЕСТУПНОСТИ В ЯРОСЛАВСКОЙ ГУБЕРНИИ ВО ВТОРОЙ ПОЛОВИНЕ XIX В. (1870–1890-е ГГ.)

The purpose of the article is to do statistical analysis of crimes in Yaroslavl province in the 1870-1890s. The author compares the dynamics of the crime rate and pays special attention to gender, age and territorial aspects. The author also considers the types of crimes, motives for their commission, categories of criminals and measures to combat crime. The author analyzes the influence of various factors over the number and types of crimes, and examines the changes in crime rates during the period under review. A statistical data analysis as well as problem-chronological, comparative-historical, synchronic and general scientific (analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction) methodologies are used in the study. The author examines the data from “Review of Yaroslavl Province [by year]” from 1876 to 1895, calculates the crime dynamics and compares the results with the available data from academic papers. As a result, the author concludes that the statistical data partially refute traditional knowledge on the continuously increasing crime rate in Yaroslavl province in the second half of the 19th century. The academic paper analysis identifies some local features of crime during the period under review: the dynamics do not have sharp rise, and the crime curve reflects increasing and decreasing for 20 years. At the same time, the author notes that Yaroslavl province had the same crime processes as the whole country did. Due to demographic and social characteristics of the Central Russian typical province, the majority of offenses were committed by Russian middle-aged men as in the whole empire. Theft is the leading type of crime throughout the period under study. The research results helps to clarify the available data on crime in Yaroslavl province in the second half of the 19th century, to identify the main types, motives, factors of crime and the characteristics of criminals, to compare the data with those of other Russian provinces. The data analysis provides a better understanding the causes and features of crime in Russia in the post-reform period. The research materials can be used in the development of special courses and special seminars on local history, the history of crime, the public life of Russian society, and the social history of Russia in the second half of the 19th century.

ИНСТИТУТ ЧЛЕНСТВА В ГУБЕРНСКИХ СТАТИСТИЧЕСКИХ КОМИТЕТАХ: АНАЛИЗ ЗАКОНОДАТЕЛЬНОГО РЕГУЛИРОВАНИЯ И ПЕРСОНАЛЬНОГО СОСТАВА (НА МАТЕРИАЛАХ КОСТРОМСКОЙ ГУБЕРНИИ)

The purpose of the article is to analyze the diverse activity of the Kostroma provincial Statistical Committee members. The author examines the influence of the personnel on the effectiveness and efficiency of the provincial Statistical Committee work. Special attention is paid to the evolution of legislation and regulation of membership in provincial Statistical Committees, and to analysis of their social and professional structure. Unpublished archival materials of the Kostroma provincial Statistical Committee of the second half of the XIX century are used in the study. In addition, records and statistical materials, periodicals and personal papers are examined. Special-historical (problem-chronological, historical-systemic and comparative-historical methods) and general scientific methods (analysis, synthesis, induction and deduction) are used in the study. Due to the archival materials analysis, the author concludes that the Kostroma provincial Statistical Committee stuff consisted of various social members. Local clergymen made up the committee majority. It was a typical feature of the provincial Statistical Committees of the Russian Empire. The committee stuff also consisted of raznochintsy and burghers, local merchants and even peasants. The ability and desire to devote himself to the study of various province issues were the only condition for the Committee membership. A wide social structure of the provincial Statistical Committees facilitated the democratization of their activities in the second half of the XIX century. An active part of the urban community, representatives of the intelligentsia and officials also belonged to the Committee. The wide social structure highly raised the status of the Committee and made it one of the leading scientific centers in the province. The research results provide a better understanding the special activities of provincial Statistical Committees, which were a synthesis of state institution and scientific society, and identifying Committees importance in the formation of national government statistics, their contribution to the scientific development, educational and local history activities in the Russian province in the second half of the 19th century. The research materials can be used in the development of special courses and special seminars on local history, the statistics history, and the public life of Russian society in the post-reform period.

The specifics of conditional conjunctions in modern Russian

The subject of research are the conjunctions used in a complex sentence to convey conditional relations. In the Russian language, the group of conjunctions capable of expressing the meaning of a condition is quite voluminous. In this article we turn to an insufficiently deeply developed issue, namely, the analysis of conjunctions located on the periphery of the means condition expressions. The purpose of the study is to identify conjunctions based on lexicographic sources and speech contexts that can express a conditional relation, and, using the example of a conjunction "добро бы", describe its semantic and pragmatic potential. The article uses the descriptive method, as well as the method of definitional analysis and elements of component and transformational analysis. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that 1) the analysis of dictionary entries of conditional conjunctions is given, the grouping of conditional conjunctions is described; 2) the experience of a comprehensive analysis of the conjunction of "добро бы" is demonstrated and its additional meanings (presumptive condition, conditionally opposed), as well as modal shades (assessment and desire) are revealed. The conclusions and materials of the study can be used in lectures, special courses and special seminars for students of philological and pedagogical specialties, in improving school curricula, creating textbooks, collections of exercises. The relevance of the study lies in the fact that, despite the many scientific papers devoted to specific conjunctions that are located in the central zone of the means of expressing conditional relations, the question of the interpretative potential of peripheral conditional conjunctions (the number of which is very large) has not been worked out deeply enough.

«…Рано вылетел из скафтымовского “гнезда”»: В. А. Бочкарев об А. П. Скафтымове

The article discusses the relationship of V. A. Bochkarev, a graduate of Saratov University in 1930, the first postgraduate student of A. P. Skaftymov in 1930–1933, subsequently Doctor of Philology, professor, the head of the department of the Russian and Foreign literature of Kuybyshev (Samara) Pedagogical Institute (University) for many years, the author of the fundamental works on the Russian historical drama, and A. P. Skaftymov, the founder and the creator of Saratov School of Philology, a scientist of world renown. A. P. Skaftymov left philological legacy exclusively valuable in its scientific magnitude and he educated many students, the nestlings of Skavtymov’s “nest”, as they were called afterwards, some of them, including V. A. Bochkarev, have taken the rightful place in the literature science. The article covers the important role that A. P. Skaftymov played in the personal and scientific life of V. A. Bochkarev in his formation as a scientist and a teacher, who retained a grateful memory of his tutor. Some important memoir evidence by V. A. Bochkarev is presented, in which he dwells on the content and structure of the lecture courses given by A. P. Skaftymov, that V. A. Bochkarev chanced to attend as a student and a postgraduate, on the topics of the special seminars that A. P. Saftymov used to teach, on the reports that were prepared under his supervision, on the requirements of the scientific supervisor to the students’ and postgraduates’ papers, on the methods of scientific counselling, on A. P. Skaftymov’s inherent feeling of democracy, that was revealed in his behavior as the head of the department and the faculty. The article considers how V. A. Bochkarev perceived and evaluated the scientific, moral and educational lessons of A. P. Skaftymov, which he appropriated for his life and reflected in his memories and letters to his colleagues in Saratov.

РОЗВИТОК МОРАЛЬНО-ЕТИЧНОЇ КУЛЬТУРИ МАЙБУТНІХ УЧИТЕЛІВ ІСТОРІЇ В ОСВІТНЬОМУ СЕРЕДОВИЩІ ЗАКЛАДУ ВИЩОЇ ОСВІТИ

In modern times, when the Ukrainian education system is undergoing reforms and integration into the European educational space, the important problem of preparing highly qualified teachers arises. To successfully implement the conceptual principles of the development of pedagogical education, it is necessary to activate the task of forming moral qualities in future teachers as examples for the imitation of moral behavior in the younger generation. Future teachers should become ethical authorities for their students and pupils, so it is important to ensure their readiness for systematic work on improving their own moral sphere. Solving these tasks requires activating the process of forming a moral and ethical culture in future teachers. Optimization of the educational process in the preparation of the younger generation, which should be worthy of the idea of building an open, humane democratic society, is impossible without solving the problem of improving the professional and moral-psychological training of the teacher for pedagogical activities. The necessity of improving the system of moral education in educational institutions, which plays an important role in improving the moral state of society, is undeniable. However, achieving this goal is only possible through the improvement of the process of formation of the moral culture of future teachers, who are potential representatives of the intellectual and managerial elite. Given that morality and ethics have real power that can change the situation to the same level as a concrete action, this becomes a necessary condition for success in improving the moral situation in society. The moral and ethical culture is of great importance for personal development as it promotes the formation of moral values and behavioral norms that are essential in the life of every individual. Special attention is given to the use of interactive teaching methods, which allow students to actively participate in the learning process and develop moral and ethical qualities. The article emphasizes the need to improve the qualifications of teachers in the issues of moral and ethical education of students. To achieve this goal, special seminars and trainings are necessary, which will help teachers better understand the problems and work more effectively with students. Overall, the article is dedicated to the pressing problem of forming moral and ethical culture of future history teachers, which is an important element of the professional preparation of educators. It contains important recommendations and practical advice for teachers and students who are preparing for future pedagogical activities.

Metrics of the Adyghe verse

The article examines the insufficiently studied aspects of the Adyghe versification system based on one of its areas, and a significant component of the verse – its metrics. It presents a comprehensive analysis of the metric system of the Adyghe (Kabardian, Circassian, Adygheyan) literary verse. Our research focuses on the specifics of the development of syllabic-tonic meters (trochee, iambic, dactyl, amphibrach, anapest) and the features of their functioning in different genres and genre forms of national poetry. The relevance of the stated problem is due to the fact that the system of Adyghe versification in general and the metrics of national verse in particular have not become the subject of scientific consideration over the past decades. Meanwhile, significant changes took place that determined further trends in the evolution of genres, genre forms and the poetics of verse. During the indicated period, innovative methods and forms of organizing a poetic text have been mastered, requiring scientific understanding in the context of modern poetry and the use of new methodological tools for analyzing poetry. The scientific novelty of the work lies in the fact that for the first time it has made an attempt to comprehensively study the metrics of verse at all stages of the evolution of Adyghe literature. The results obtained can be used in special university courses and special seminars on the history of Adyghe (Adygheyan, Kabardian, Circassian, Circassian abroad) literature, in particular - a comprehensive examination of the system of Adyghe versification, as well as in research into the field of national philology and for writing graduation papers and doing other kind of research work.

Teachability of lower cervical spine injury classifications

ObjectivesTo compare the teachability of the Allen–Ferguson, Harris, Argenson, AOSpine, Subaxial Cervical Spine Injury Classification (SLIC), Subaxial Cervical Spine Injury Classification (CSISS) and to identify the classification that a group of residents and junior neurosurgeons find easiest to learn. MethodsWe used data from 64 consecutive patients. Answers of nine residents and junior neurosurgeons and four experienced surgeons in two assessment procedures were used. Six raters (workshop group) participated in special seminars between assessments. Three other raters formed the control group. Experienced surgeon's answers were used for comparison. Teachability was measured as the median value of the difference (ΔK) in the interrater agreement on the same patients by the same pairs of subjects. ResultsMedian Δ K for the Allen–Ferguson, Harris, Argenson and AOSpine classifications were: (1) 0.01, 0.02, 0.29, and 0.39 for the workshop group; (2). 0.09, −0.03, 0.06 and 0.04 for the control group, respectively. Between numerical scales, median ΔK was higher for SLIC but did not exceed 0.16. Interrater consistency with expert's opinion was increased in the workshop group for Allen–Ferguson, Argenson and AOSpine and did not differ in either group for SLIC and CSISS. ConclusionThe AOSpine classification was the most teachable. Among numeric scales, SLIC demonstrated better results. The successful application of these classifications by residents and junior neurosurgeons was possible after a short educational course. The use of these scales in educational cycles at the stage of residency can significantly simplify the communication between specialists, especially at the stage of patient admission.

Специфика воплощения авторской маски в романе В.П. Аксёнова «Ожог»

The specifics of the functioning of the author’s mask in the novel by V.P. Aksenov “Burn”. The author’s mask is considered as a means of positioning the author in the text. The concepts of “author’, “narrator”, “author’s mask” were used for the analysis. For the first time, the phenomenon of the author's mask in the novel “The Burn” was subjected to a holistic study. As a result of the study, it was found that in the novel by V.P. Aksenov, thanks to the branched system of author’s masks, a complex and multidimensional narrative space is created. Through the mask as an image of a “possible other”, the prose writer comprehends the topics provocative for the aesthetics of late socialism: the relationship of the artist with the authorities, the homeland, the existence of a creative personality in a totalitarian state. The system of Apollinarievich’s author’s masks demonstrates not only the possible options for the personal fate of the “author of the real”, but also the behavioral strategy for the survival of a thinking and thinking intellectual within the framework of a totalitarian system. The author’s mask of Tolya von Steinbock is introduced by Aksenov into the novel in order to fully reflect his own “Magadan” childhood, to present a complex psychological self-portrait. The key means of creating author's masks are, firstly, numerous autobiographical parallels and correspondences generated by the total reflection of the prose writer about himself; secondly, steady transitions from the first person to the third and, on the contrary, confusing the reader and turning the text into an experimental space of a literary game. The research materials and general conclusions can be used in university courses in the history of Russian literature of the twentieth century, special courses and special seminars dedicated to the work of V. Aksenov. Since the author’s mask is becoming quite a common technique in postmodern literature, the methodology used is quite applicable to comprehend the prose of the 1990s–2000s, where there is a play with the author’s “voices” (V. Pelevin, V. Sorokin, A. Kabakov and others.).

Scientific and information support of animal husbandry - a tool to improve the efficiency of the industry in the republic of Kazakstan

The purpose of considered research is to substantiate the need and determine the forecast of possible results of ensuring the availability of knowledge about modern technologies and results of scientific research in animal husbandry through scientific and informational support of agricultural products (based on training seminars). In the article the general state of animal husbandry in Kazakhstan is examined, the current problems of the industry development are identified, the relevance of animal husbandry’s development to ensure food security in conditions of decrease in business activity is substantiated. As a possible direction for the development of the industry, the realization of program “Information support of the subjects of the agro-industrial complex on a gratuitous basis” is considered. The authors considered the measures for the realization of program “Information support of subjects of the agro-industrial complex on a gratuitous basis” in 2020 for achievement of research purpose. The costs of scientific and informational support of entrepreneurs represent the state’s investments for these purposes. The authors summarized the forecast calculations of expected increase in cost of commercial livestock products using modern technological approaches to feeding, improving the structure of the herd, breeding, care and veterinary service, considered at special seminars for farmers. In the article the need for knowledge accessibility of modern technologies and scientific research on animal husbandry through scientific and practical seminars for agricultural producers is focused.

French sinology development (13‒21 centuries): historical aspect

French sinology takes a special place in the history of the sinological studies development. It was France that became the first country where the transformation of missionary sinology, which was common among a limited circle of researchers (mainly in a religious sphere), into the academic scientific discipline, which had already been taught and studied at a professional level in academic institutions, occurred. The Parisian type of sinology used to dominate the entire world for a long time, including such powerful centers of Chinese studies as Germany, Great Britain, the USA, and China itself. The conducted historiographical analysis of the topic allows pointing out the insufficient coverage by the local researchers of the evolution of French sinology historical development as a whole process that had lasted for almost 800 years. This fact prompted the authors to reveal the mentioned topic. The purpose of the article is to investigate the historical development of French sinology during the 13th–21st centuries. In the course of the work, both general scientific methods and special ones were used, among which the priority was given to historical, chronological and problem-thematic methods. The analytical method and methods of grouping and typology were also applied, that made it possible to present the material in a logically complete manner. In order to form a complete picture of sinology development in France, the authors singled out and analyzed three historical periods covering the entire history of Chinese studies development, starting from its birth and flourishment to the process of stagnation. Thus, within the time limits of the first period, the process a peculiar scientific base of knowledge about China accumulating, as well as the development of missionary sinology, was investigated, and it was proved that it became a kind of bridge between the protosinological stage and academic sinology, which secularized the achievements of its predecessors in the 19th century and turned into a scientific academic discipline. Within the time limits of the second period, the scientific achievements of a whole galaxy of French scholars were analyzed, namely, Edouard Chavannes, Marcel Granet, Henri Paul Gaston Maspero, and others, and it was concluded that the Sinological school in France was at the peak of its development, and the views of its representatives gained priority among sinologists all over the world. Regarding the third period, the authors express the opinion that modern French sinology has lost its leading position in the scientific world, and the search for the latest methodological approaches and methods (primarily multidisciplinary with the use of digital technologies) is primarily an attempt to achieve parity with the leading centers of Chinese studies. Factual research material can be used for further study of the history of sinology development, as well as for writing generalising papers on Chinese studies, reading lecture courses, special courses and special seminars.

The Beijing Opera features that must be taken into account in the translating process

The purpose of the study is to determine the Beijing Opera features, to establish their relationships with the Beijing Opera translation features. The subject of research: the Beijing Opera features affecting its translation. The main research methods are comparative, content analysis of scientific articles about the Beijing Opera and its translation in Russian and Chinese. The author examines in detail the following features of the Beijing Opera: complexity, virtuality, exemplary, theatrical effectiveness and audiovisuality, accessibility, lack of notes, aesthetics, etc. Special attention is paid to the connection of the Beijing Opera features with its translation features, their accounting, analysis and maximum transfer in translation. The scientific novelty of the research lies in the systematization of the Beijing Opera characteristic features, which determine its translation features. The main conclusions of the study: the translation fundamental feature is acceptability, to achieve which, taking into account each characteristic feature of the Beijing Opera, it is necessary to use descriptive translation or its combinations with other techniques, in particular transliteration or replication. As the study result of the above features, it was revealed that in the Beijing Opera, every detail is important, and should be acceptably presented in translation. The data obtained can be used in the creation of manuals for the translation of the Beijing Opera, and can also be used in universities of the humanities in the study of special courses or special seminars on practical translation, cultural studies, comparative linguistics, etc.

Вербализация концепта «Труд» у разных народов: на материале русских, английских и корейских пословиц

In our article, we explore the concept of «Labor», which is one of the central fragments of the language culture – of the Russian, English/American, and Korean linguistic communities. The article uses a value approach to identify ethno-specific cultural concepts of attitudes towards work and labor activity in three languages. We have made an attempt to carry out a comparative analysis of Russian, English and Korean proverbs from the standpoint of the attitude of the three peoples to work. The research was conducted on the material of Russian, English and Korean proverbs. Proverbs most clearly illustrate the image and way of life, geographical location, the history of an ethnic group, traditions of a particular community united by one common culture. In our article, we use a value approach to identify ethno-specific cultural concepts of attitudes towards work and work activity in three languages. The article attempts to carry out a comparative analysis of Russian, English and Korean proverbs from the standpoint of the attitude of the three peoples to work. The material for the study was proverbs of the three languages, selected from lexicographic sources as a result of a continuous selection according to the thematic principle. А comparative study of the paremiological units of the concept “Labor” in the three languages under consideration showed similarities prevailing over differences at the semantic level. The material analyzed by us allows us to conclude that labor, work, and their qualitative performance have been positively evaluated and are being evaluated in society. Positive and negative assessment of labor is possibly associated with different understanding of the same concept by different social groups of people. The practical significance lies in the fact that the materials and main provisions of the work can be used in the course of lectures on lexicology and phraseology of the Russian language, as well as for reading special courses and conducting special seminars on relevant topics.

Повседневная семейно-родственная коммуникация: новая реальность, динамика языковых и культурных процессов

The article examines the changes that have occurred in family-related communication. The research is based on family speech handwritten notes and transcripts of voice records made by the author and the students of her special seminar, correspondence of family members and relatives in various messengers, as well as on the speech material presented in articles and books published by various researchers. The purpose of the study is to show how changes in everyday life, caused by new realities of the domestic sphere, various events in the country and the world, the development of information technology, affect family-related communication and speech, and by and large, the very existence of the family. Changes in the domestic sphere – the emergence of new social objects, new household cleaning supplies, development of fashion industry and everything that is, in one way or another, connected with the daily routine of a person – lead to expanding and updating the lexical field of familyrelated communication. There is high penetration of new lexical units, primarily borrowings from other languages, into family speech, including the speech of children. The research has shown that such an active and rapid borrowing process can give rise to misunderstanding between different generations in the family.
