The research is set in the framework of linguapragmatics and its goal is to reveal the ways intentional omissions work in film synopses.

Semiotics of ‘the new Soviet man’ concept in the works of the Strugatsky brothers: from the “Noon Universe” to the “Doomed City”
... ‘Soviet man’ as a person of labour (action), a person of duty (sacrifice), and a person of science (enlightenment). This concept undergoes a significant transformation over the course of their literary work. The analysis of the semiosphere of the novel ”The Doomed City” (“Grad obrechennyi”, 1975) demonstrates that the Strugatskys succeeded in tracing the genesis of the ‘Soviet man’ through a symbolic system of images: from the revolutionary-destroyer of the 1920s, to the builder-creator ...

A comparative analysis of the religious-philosophical foundations of the teacher-student relationship in the pedagogical traditions of Protestantism, Catholicism, and Orthodoxy is conducted. The study shows that each of these traditions is based on unique religious principles that shape the value orientations of the educational process. The scientific novelty of the work lies in the comprehensive analysis of pedagogical systems, based on a systematic consideration of their religious and cultural...

The main objective of the article is to present the multifaceted figure of Jean Chapelain as the foremost French critic and literary theorist of the first half of the 17th century. Significant attention is given to Chapelain’s connection with his time, during which the function of literature and the position of the writer were evolving, as well as his substantial contribution to the establishment and consolidation of classicist aesthetics on a national level. The article addresses the critic’s role...
Idiolect of a piece of litterature in the mirror of translation (based on the novel of E. Vodolazkin “Laurus”)
The idiolect, idiostyle of a literary work, and the subjective aspect of a speech activity product are considered as objects of translation into a foreign language. The study raises the question of a strategy for analyzing the linguistic means of a literary text that would allow for the most complete reconstruction of the fictional world in the imagination of the foreign-language reader. The aim of the research is to study the influence of the interpretation of the idiostylistic aspect of a literary...
Time synaesthesia in W. Shakespeare’s texts: the semantics and pragmatics of colour
The article analyzes the features of synesthetic conceptualization of time through the prism of the category of color, based on the works of W. Shakespeare. It is demonstrated that color, not being an independent entity but a quality, acquires in the space of the literary text additional metonymically conditioned meanings through its correlation with the phenomena of existence, in some cases rising to the level of value-laden symbolic co-meanings. The semantics and pragmatics of each color that...

Case technologies as a means of assessing the skills of students in China and Russia
Modern society and the surrounding reality are rapidly evolving, which also affects the technologies being integrated into nearly every aspect of human life. These trends result in the continuous and rapid changes in the content of the knowledge acquired and used. This creates the need to apply relevant tools for assessing students’ skills that meet the demands of societal expectations. The novelty of the research lies in the lack of studies conducting a comparative analysis of diagnostic tools aimed...

Given that the increase in unlawful acts related to the creation...

Special attention is given to the various types of Russian characters depicted in the author’s novels. Despite the predominance of negative portrayals of Russian military personnel and government officials, Kraszewski’s writings also contain positive depictions of ordinary Russian people, characterized by their basic humanity.

It is argued that the basis of the description ...
Semio-poiesis: on the birth of the semiosphere from the biosphere
The article discusses a possible development of Yuri Lotman’s concept of semiosphere by supplementing it with the idea of semio-poiesis. Analysis of the processes of origination, evolution and functioning of the genetic code makes it possible to describe the main mechanisms of these processes. The associations of material phenomena (in this case nucleotides and amino acids) led to the establishment of semiotic links, resulting in mechanisms of information storage and transmission, allowing the...
Action-thoughts and the genesis of time in linguistic semiosis
The genesis of time is explained in the spirit of constructivism combined with the activity approach to cognition. The cardinal temporal categories of present, past, and future are discussed in terms of action-thoughts understood as elementary units of activity whose structure is determined by linguistic semiosis. Husserl’s tripartite model of the phenomenology of time (prime perception, retention, protention) is applied to the analysis of the subject’s experience of his actions. It is demonstrated...

Agents are also involved in an Actor Network, and they may act as ambassadors for the author or school they are attempting to introduce. The study then summarizes the work I have done on the Brazilian editor, author, and translator, José Bento...

How translations are willed into existence
This paper will argue that translations are willed into existence in three conceivable ways: pull, push and shuffle. Pull is the most intuitive form. It corresponds, for example, to a publishing house that decides to translate a foreign novel. Here, the initiative to invest in a new translation project is almost entirely located on the target side. The push mode, in contrast, can be exemplified by a company that decides to localise its website to cater for foreign markets. Here the ...
Ambiguity matters in linguistics and translation
Ambiguity implies that there are at least two distinct senses ascribed to one sign. It is inherent to language and speech. In this article, I reflect on the types of ambiguity, its typology, production and effect and propose an algorithm for tackling ambiguity in translation. I posit that the choice of a translation strategy and the need for disambiguation in general depend on the type of ambiguity, its sources and character, i. e. whether ambiguity is intended or not. Intended ambiguity occurs...

The paradox of the ‘semiotics of life’: Yuri Lotman’s later works
In a series of interviews given in the early 1990s, Yuri Lotman contemplated the boundary between the human and the animal. Keenly interested in animals, the scholar stressed in his later work the need to include animal communication in the semiosphere. Lotman’s model holds that semiosis requires at least two languages between which instances of untranslatability occur. However, he did not extend this model to animal communication. This is the apparent paradox of Lotman’s later work. Lotman might...

It is necessary to reconsider P. M. S. Hacker’s assessment of Kant and Wittgenstein’s philosophical affinities and the question concerning Wittgenstein’s alleged use of “transcendental arguments”. First, Alfred Norman’s reading of the Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus as a thought experiment receives revision to develop a view of the Critique of Pure Reason as a large-scale thought experiment that shares important logical features with the Tractatus. Then the question is addressed whether the middle...

Kant — a leap out the world of Enlightenment
Leaping beyond the limits of one’s time with the help of imagination is a rather common procedure; however, such leap made with the help of rational philosophical principles and taking one 150 years into the future to a precisely designed landing ground is unprecedented. Kant preformed this intellectual feat through understanding the true essence of human nature. All the novelties and discoveries that he introduced into philosophy are the results of this initial achievement. Whereas the Enlightenment...
