Language of digital poetry description: the semiotic and literary aspects
... text/meaning-generating capacity of the new communication channel, the language of digital texts' literary meta-description and the limits of freedom in interpreting such volatile texts. This article attempts to answer these and other questions, providing a semiotic understanding of communication in the tech environment. It also proffers the idea of new pragmatics as the effect of volatile polycode digital text, interface and reception trajectory. It is shown that the instability of the digital channel plays a ...

Sixteen illustrations help understand Chicherin's logic behind the creation of his four 'construemes', including the most mysterious composition called 'Raman' ('the shortest Kan-Fun Novel in the world').

Heine’s dolnik in the academic discussion and the Russian translation practice of the 1900s—1930s
... century by Alexander Blok, Yuri Tynianov, Viktor Zorgenfrei, Evgenya Knipovich, and Vera Arens. The equirhythmic tradition established by Blok in translating Heine’s verse is contrasted with Tynianov's functional approach. This study deepens the understanding of the connections between symbolist and formalist poetics, as well as between symbolist translation and the so-called philological translation of the 1920s and 1930s.

What am I?" excludes a neutral attitude of the individual to the situation that has become the reason for understanding their "I". Being a tool of self-knowledge, the analyzed questions are an indicator of a person's fixation on their own social and personal identity and reflect changes in psychology against the background of socio-economic processes ...
The pragmatics of semiosis and linguisation

The analysis of these hermeneutical constructions makes it possible to relate them—as well as the phenomenon of genesis itself—to the author’s model of recursion with inversive switching. The next step is to use this model to interpret and understand the pragmatic moment as the active beginning of meaning-making and communication. The radical expansion of pragmatics extends it beyond the bounds of semiotics proper, enabling it to be conceived as a virtually boundless sphere of human action—or ...

At the same time, the author reveals that the usual means of understanding and comprehending the city and oneself in the city are not enough. New metaphors and tools are needed to help us understand the city. Among them are porosity, rhythm, and imprints. The article introduces the basic metaphor of the ...
