The purpose of the article is to reveal the peculiarities of the phenomenon of polygranism (genre synthesis) and its varieties in contemporary musical art. The methods of the study are based on a combination of historical and theoretical approaches of scientific knowledge. The historical method allows us to trace the origin, flourishing, complication and improvement of the phenomenon of genre synthesis in musical art, first of all, during the postmodern day (the last third of the twentieth century – the beginning of the XXI century). Dialectic, comparative, empirical (observation and generalization) methods of research, and contributes for a deep understanding of the various approaches of modern composers to the combination of signs of different genres in one musical also work are used. The scientific novelty of the research consis in generalizing the views of scientists on the problem of genre synthesis and its projection into contemporary works of Ukrainian music, especially, the concert genre as one of the leading composers (among others – Rhapsody Concerto for Viola and Mezzo Soprano Natalia Boyeva). Conclusions. The musical genre as a cultural phenomenon characterizing the classification of musical creativity by genera and species has historical origin and certain conditions of existence; it reveals to the composer the broad style of cultural potential, makes choosing and expanding her spiritual resource, develop and embody new stylistic ways of understanding the musical form. In the genre plane, we can note the constant interaction of traditional and new genres, the emergence of new in accordance to a new imagery, especially at the present stage. The technique of representing musical material and aesthetic demands of the new world stylistics, which gave rise to the emergence thinking both have a permanent impact on the development of the genre palette.

This chapter and the following both draw the reader into seventeenth-century understandings of the past, and of Boudica in particular, and makes clear that in a time before disciplines, writers of ‘history’ were erudite commentators, immersed in political thought, the classical world, and contemporary ideas, as well as in drama, poetry, and the law. Chapter 1 shows the subtleties of Boudica’s place in history at this early stage by giving sustained attention to the work of Edmund Bolton (1574/5–c.1634), the first person to analyse the written and material evidence for Boudica’s deeds, and the last to do so in depth before the later nineteenth century. Bolton’s distaste for contemporary philosophy and his loyalty to James I were highly influential in determining the way the antiquary approached Boudica and her rebellion; but equally important was Bolton’s deep understanding of historical method and the strictures this placed on his interpretive latitude.

Abstract This article deals with the Lacandon cosmology, one of the few Maya cosmologies which has been exceptionally structured and until today, very well preserved. The present study is based mainly on associations related to stone. There are investigated the emic classifications of the Lacandon. Their classification of divine beings according to their location, and their connection to the stone houses, whether of natural or cultural origin. In the article are analyzed the most sacred Lacandon sites such as the rock shelters, cliffs and caves around the Lake Mensäbäk and Lake Yahaw Petha, as well as Yaxchilan, the archaeological site with the long tradition of Lacandon pilgrimages. The Lacandon believe in different types of transfer of spiritual energy through stone. The stones could be considered on different levels as the seat, heart or embodiment of deities. These relationships and contexts are very complex. The article tries to identify it and to offer some linguistic and theoretical approaches.

Abstract Over the past 20 years, research on views on aging has substantiated their importance for successful development and sustained quality of life over the full length of the life span. However, a deep understanding of the origins of views on aging and the underlying processes of their lifespan development and manifestation is lacking. Since 2017, the scientific network “Images of Aging” funded by the German Research Foundation (http://www.health.uni-konstanz.de/images-of-aging) assembles national and international renowned experts in the field. The network engages in empirical clarifications on both the distinctness and validity of the construct (contribution of Klusmann et al.) as well as in critically reviewing terminology and measures of views on aging (contribution of Notthoff et al.). The network aims to help clarifying the dynamic interplay of determinants and outcomes in the context of health (contribution of Wolff et al.) as well as disentangling intra- and intergenerational stereotypic perceptions (contribution of Kornadt et al.). Both of these are understudied issues with highly practical implications for two of the largest demographic challenges: shaping the coexistence of generations as well as providing adequate health care supply. Integrating both pertinent theoretical approaches and empirical findings the network regards views on aging under a lifespan perspective. Recently, it suggested three core principles of views on aging regarding lifelong bio-psycho-social development, their multidimensional nature, and their impact across life. These considerations provide a background for an integrative discussion of the symposium’s contributions.

The assessment of the violent individual presents a challenge to psychiatrists. Many theoretical approaches contribute to the understanding of violence, but none are totally adequate for the clinician's purposes. The assessment of violent behaviour can be undertaken using three separate dimensions—“Dehumanisation”, “Acceptance of Violence” and “Rage and its Control”—which together form a framework for the formulation of clinical data. This framework is described and the relevance of theoretical contributions to the three dimensions is discussed. It is suggested that this framework assists in the classification of violent individuals and in the prediction of the potential for future violence.

In this article, the author analyzes the ideological struggle for the Ukrainian national identity happened in a meaningful time of Khrushchev Thaw when first dissidents appeared. Additionally, we have applied the theme of ideological propaganda and agitation considered through language approach to a larger scientific extent. First, we characterize separately the creating of an ethnic identity endorsed by the SRSR, and national identity of the URSR as an integral part of a specific social identity, linguistic identification with representatives of a certain nation, its culture and traditions, which include the entire complex of emotions caused by the sense of belonging. By involving the idea of identity as a relational, socio-cultural phenomenon, we considered the concept of Bucholt and Hall, J. Mead, K. Levy-Strauss. Next, we identify the works of Anthony Smith, Herbert Blumer, Ernest Gellner, Eric Gobsbaum. Trying to conduct the concept analysis of the formation of the Ukrainian national identity through the semantic and semiotic aspects of the language identity according to the Dissidents movement we used 3 key topic notions: - Identity as a relational, socio-cultural phenomenon; - Socio-historical contextualization of showing the national identity as an environmental product of the nation; - Ideology of the Standard Language. Finally, the author comes to an outcome that the Soviet ideology allowing the formation of the so-called ethnographic identity of Ukrainians, made considerable efforts to prevent the creation of a nationwide identity that Ukrainian Dissidents were fighting for, herewith, artificially imposing the idea of the disunity of Eastern and Western Ukraine.

The article considers theoretical approaches to the use of psychological games in preschool education. The existing scientific approaches to the classification of games are studied. The need to take into account the classification of psychological games in the organization of play activities, because the classification includes consideration and understanding of common features, which will develop and implement common approaches to the organization of play activities in preschool education. The interrelation of didactic games and games of psychological orientation is proved. The concept of "psychological games", which originate from psychotechnical exercises and are widely used during psychological training, has been clarified. A complex model of psychological games has been developed, which takes into account various areas of mental development of the personality of a preschool child: cognitive, social, emotional and volitional. One of the types of such games are canine exercises that provide a balance of emotional and physical components. The reasons that complicate the process of communication between parents, teachers and children are listed. It is emphasized that the experience of psychological games allows the child to find solutions faster and easier in difficult life situations. The range of psychological and pedagogical possibilities of games of psychological orientation is outlined. The expediency of using such games in the educational process and their ability to influence the emotional connections between children and parents, children and teachers, between children and peers are determined. The types of influence of psychological games on the development of certain mental processes of personality are structured. Emphasis is placed on the need to develop methods of pedagogical guidance of psychological games and their separation from psychotechnical exercises. The effectiveness of the introduction of various psychological games in the educational process depends on the professionalism of teachers and will ensure the solution of specific problems of a practical nature, which will improve the educational process and communication of all its participants.

This study presents a comprehensive analysis and classification of existing theoretical approaches for conceptualization of academic dishonesty that has helped to understand the reasons and socio-psychological mechanisms for dishonest behaviour. This paper also considers practical methods of how to combat student dishonesty that were proposed based on the results of empirical studies. According to the proposed methods, theories can be divided into two groups. The first group includes theories that provide preventing methods of student academic dishonesty for faculty members. The second group of theories provides ways for preventing academic cheating at the university level. Based on the systematization of theories, additional methods have been proposed to combat dishonest behavior, which can be useful for both teachers and researchers of academic dishonesty.
