Physical and chemical characteristics, antioxidant properties and the effect of the newly synthesized peptide on lipid deposition in cells
... molecular weight, the number of hydrogen bond acceptors and donors, the number of rings, the number of atoms in the largest ring, overall charge, rigidity, flexibility, topological polar surface area, predicted solubility, and the number of acidic sites, suggests that this peptide could be effectively used as a biologically active compound. Furthermore, CG-16 demonstrated antioxidant activity and the ability to reduce lipid accumulation in cells.

First finding of tooth of Ptychodus (Elasmobranchii: Lamniformes) in moraine of the Kaliningrad Region
... Region, within boulder-pebble material along the seashore near Zelenogradsk. Previously, the geographically closest remains of Ptychodus were known from Upper Cretaceous reworked deposits in Lithuania. The morphological features of the studied tooth suggest that it is a symphyseal tooth and may be classified as Ptychodus cf. latissimus Agassiz, 1835. This new find expands our knowledge of the distribution of Ptychodus during the Cretaceous period and enhances our understanding of the diversity of ...
Fichte’s Ideas in the Philosophical Doctrines of Russian Neo-Kantians

Vysheslavtsev made a consistent attempt to derive law, the state and economics from the ethical content of epistemology, “the science of knowledge”; Yakovenko suggested interpreting “the science of knowledge” as a teaching on life and freedom, as the philosophical grounding of the Christian idea; Lanz wrote about Fichte’s philosophy in the same vein as “the revolt of morality against theory”, as a ...

Emotive politeness in face-threatening speech acts: cross-cultural perspectives
... into account the fact that each e-mail may have its own features, predetermined by the author’s idiostyle and psychological characteristics, as well as the context of the exchange, we have identified some culture-specific features. The findings suggest that English emails are more focused on mitigating refusal and its negative effect on the addressee’s feelings, thereby saving face, compared with the Russian ones. This can be observed in the structure of refusal, its supporting moves and politeness ...
Speech and gesture regulations in expressing vague reference in expository dialogue

Third, a more frequent use of pragmatic gestures with approximators was identified, suggesting that while nominations primarily evoke iconic and indexical representations in gestures, predications are strongly linked with pragmatic manifestations. Finally, the study reveals that vague reference serves as a cognitive principle regulating ...
The Buddhist concept of “Consciousness-Only” in Victor Pelevin’s novel “Omon Ra”

On the issue of constructing a taxonomy of tasks in teaching data analysis

A horizontal-vertical taxonomy of educational tasks is proposed, based on three core processes: thinking, communication, and activity. The complexity of tasks is suggested as the key criterion for the vertical part of the taxonomy. Using the topic of “linear regression” as an example, typical tasks corresponding to primary and secondary processes, as well as their intersections, are presented. Specific assignments ...

Most conflicts are functional in nature and are subject to political resolution. The conclusions of the study suggest that the relationship between Russia and the Central Asian countries contributes to the development of a polycentric world. Researchers focusing on this region should analyze the multi-vector nature of the foreign policies pursued by Central Asian ...

An inter-semiotic view of literary devices borrowed ...

Discursive practices of the Russian diaspora in Estonia: language contacts
In this article, I use the concept of discursive practices to consider the speech practices of the Russian diaspora of Estonia.

Such a discourse has formal (borrowings, code-switching, etc.), semantic (referential shifts, semantically re-oriented vocabulary, etc.), and pragmatic features....
The problem of meaning in Social Semiotics: Max Weber today

Based on the Weber’s definitions and their possible modification, we suggest the transdisciplinary synthesis around the study of the problem of meanings and their manifestation. Meaning production is understood as a result of the conjunction of linguistic and extralinguistic systems in the process of social interaction ...

However, the disappointment, which quickly followed, and the devaluation of the events of those years by public opinion suggest that, although sanctioned by the authorities, the language of mobilisation was not effectively controlled by them. In this article, I analyse the structure of the public language of 1876— 1877, which was shaped by different actors who used it ...

The Concept of Soul: A Comparative Study of the Russian and the Armenian Pictures of the World

However, in most Armenian equivalents, the ‘soul’ component is replaced by the ‘heart’ mythologeme. In the Armenian language, the ...
The Image of the World Revealed In Words: Ludwig Wittgenstein and The Iсonic Semiotics
The article discusses an alternative version of semiotics in which the process of semiosis is based not on metonymic symbolization (substitution), when one entity stands for another, but on the metaphorical (iconic) representation. The author suggests considering iconicity as a basis for relating the signifier and the signified. This relation is understood as a construed one rather than something determined by physical similarity. The basis for such a revision of iconicity can be found in ...

‘Conservative symbolism’ in Erich Fromm’s theory of dreams

The key mechanism of symbol formation is cultural- associative, which is a function of human rational thinking. It is suggested that images of dreams should be interpreted from this perspective.

Antons Austriņš as a translator of Dmitry Merezhkovsky
The transaltions of D. Merezhkovsky’s works into the Latvian langauge by A. Austriņš help analyse the receptions of Russian symbolism in the Latvian culture of the 19th-20th centuries. The author suggests that A. Austriņš’s decision to translate D. Merezhkovsky texts was affected by the historical background of the 1910s – the formation of national ideas in the regions of the Russian empire, the search for peoples’ self-identity, and the ...
The axiological discourse in A. Veltman’s poem The Woods of Murom
... analysis of the poem in the axiological aspect shows that A. Veltman – as well as other Russian poets – is interested in the moral and psychological reasons behind this phenomenon rather than social ones. The plot structure and the author’s position suggest that robbery is depicted in the poem as a cardinal sin that cannot be justified; it forces a person to abandon the moral law and leads to spiritual death.

Dialektik als Logik des Scheins. Zu Kants Lektüre von Michael Piccarts Isagoge

As will be shown by the paradigmatic case of the famous Königsbergian proponent of Aristotelianism, Paul Rabe, Kant cannot have received the suggestion for his own critical distinction from Rabe’s Cursus Philosophicus. Instead, Piccart refers to a passage of Aristotle’s Metaphysics, which suggests the very distinction between an analytic philosopher who searches for scientific truth and ...

It is against this background that I revisit Kant’s remarks on the lack of self-knowledge regarding the motives of our proper actions. I suggest a reading of Kant’s views on this issue in the light of a tradition reaching back to Plato, in which man’s (moral) self-relation is shaped in an irreducible way by both self-consciousness and self-ignorance.

Kant on Human Dignity: Autonomy, Humanity, and Human Rights

It is the inner motive that determines the morality of an act, rather than the external form of the act. These and some other features of Crusius’ ethics suggest a possible influence of Crusius on Kant. The possibility of such influence has repeatedly come under close scrutiny. The first works devoted to this problem date to the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Pointers to the possibility ...

My study has established that the role of Garve’s work in the writing of Kant’s treatise Toward Perpetual Peace was more significant than Kant’s own words suggest. Besides, I show that it was under Garve’s influence that Kant turned to the problem of excessive complexity of the principles involved in the search for concrete political decisions. Garve obviously laments this complexity and yet makes these ...
