The article is written with consideration of socio-cultural and historical context of the epoch based on personological, quantitative and thematic analysis of articles published in the collections of "Siberian Living Antiquity" — first post-revolutionary periodical on ethnography in the USSR. The main goal is to identify materials that can be used as sources for studying the history of Russian folkloristics in Siberia in the 1920s. Selected articles are systematized, annotated and placed in the index. High research and publication activity of Irkutsk folklorists testified to the time of the rise and flowering of regional Siberian folklore, and the contribution of its largest scientists (M. K. Azadovsky and G. S. Vinogradov) seems to be very significant not only for regional science, but also for Russian folkloristics in general.

Abstract. Background: Suicide rates in older men are higher than in the general population, yet their utilization of mental health services is lower. Aims: This study aimed to describe: (a) what primary care providers (PCPs) can do to prevent late-life suicide, and (b) older men's attitudes toward discussing suicide with a PCP. Method: Thematic analysis of interviews focused on depression and suicide with 77 depressed, low-socioeconomic status, older men of Mexican origin, or US-born non-Hispanic whites recruited from primary care. Results: Several themes inhibiting suicide emerged: it is a problematic solution, due to religious prohibition, conflicts with self-image, the impact on others; and, lack of means/capacity. Three approaches to preventing suicide emerged: talking with them about depression, talking about the impact of their suicide on others, and encouraging them to be active. The vast majority, 98%, were open to such conversations. An unexpected theme spontaneously arose: "What prevents men from acting on suicidal thoughts?" Conclusion: Suicide is rarely discussed in primary care encounters in the context of depression treatment. Our study suggests that older men are likely to be open to discussing suicide with their PCP. We have identified several pragmatic approaches to assist clinicians in reducing older men's distress and preventing suicide.
