Brian Bilston’s multimodal poetic practices: interactions between the digital and the analogue
... polymodality to label the actor. The use of new media elements — computer interfaces, data visualisation and emojis — in poetic and meta-poetic functions is explored alongside an examination of conceptual metaphors illustrating reflection on a subject's individual experience — reflection couched in digital reality terms, such as 'filter', 'format' and 'function'. As for the referential correlation between verbal and visual components, the role of emojis is demonstrated in devising the structures of ...
Current practices in French poetic discourse: Christian Prigent, Michèle Finck and Anne-James Chaton
... video recordings by Christian Prigent (born 1945), Michèle Finck (1960) and Anne-James Chaton (1970) are examined. Analysing the presentation of poetic works by comparison and juxtaposition leads one to conclude that authors pursue two strategies: individual playback and reading (book and CD sets) and group sessions (theatrical performances and poetry festivals). Beyond the customary dichotomy of the author's versus the actor's reading, one can distinguish hybrid types of voice preservation via ...

The article also presents survey data from native Russian speakers, who predominantly classify kak po mne as a vulgarism or colloquialism. This categorisation persists despite the widespread use of the expression by educated individuals across various functional domains, including media, literary translations and film dubbing.

This, in turn, allows for the identification of both the internal limitations of the ‘new Soviet man’ concept—above all, its dependence on ideology—and its transhistorical vitality ...

The protagonist of Omon Ra is portrayed less as a cosmonaut than as a psychonaut, discovering a psychic cosmos with a simulacral nature. The world depicted in Pelevin’s narrative is richly illusory: it resembles a child’s drawing ...

Linguistic creativity of the avant-garde: language functions in literary and advertising discourses

A discursive analysis of Russian literary (experimental) and advertising (avant-garde) texts is carried...

Probably, the variety of cohesion mechanisms does not make it possible to use a single identification mechanism and requires taking into account various competing approaches. I illustrate the above conclusions,...

The “living” word in the light of modern cognitive studies (Dedicated to the anniversary of Alexandra Zalevskaya)
This article considers the key provisions relating to the nature and structure of the word in human mental space.

It is concluded that there is a dramatic difference between the mental lexicon and a dictionary as a lexico¬graphic unit.
