A lyrical discourse/text as a speech genre crossover

The author of the article understands lyrical discourses/texts as holistic speech acts, generated by inflamed emotions and a wide range of strong emotional affects which are certainly essentially interactive by nature. The notion of an authocommunicative (in a broader sense – lyrical) speech genre crossover embraces literary and colloquial, primary and secondary speech genres in the form of monologues and dialogues. The permanent feature of all of them is their special insightful stylistic expressiveness. Internal speech, in case it is used by a competent user capable of creative figurative thinking, when addressed to the proper addressee turns from the thing in itself to the thing (discourse/text) for those who are entitled and those who know. The proper addressee is a desirable communicative and emotional category which in this case presupposes openness to those whose are ready for a thorough sincere internal dialogue with the given lyrically coloured speech act. Lyrical discourses/texs of a speech genre crossover may be characterized through the universal psychological-semantic triad of attention – joint participation – discovery. Absorbing selflessly into a lyrical text we wire up our attention to the original intonations of the author’s state of mind and mood. This is followed by a noticeably updated personal experience of the addressee, initiating new individual evaluative feelings, directly or indirectly related to the dynamics of the author’s intentions. Eventually, comes the final chord which is able to transfer the discovery of sensory and conceptual author’s intentions. The integral perception of perfect lyrical discourses/texts introduces us to numerous cultural practices of phatic and informational interactions invigoratingly influencing authocommunictive aptitudes of the person, which at long last facilitates their free emotional and intellectual enhancement.

The Image of the Birch in Esenin’s Poetry: Pre-Translation Analysis and Translation into Chinese

Стихи Есенина о природе всегда подчеркивают единение с ней человека. Есенин — создатель множества символов деревьев, среди которых первое место занимает береза. В статье рассматриваются образы березы в стихах поэта раннего и позднего периодов творчества, его психологическое состояние, философские размышления. Выявляются трудности перевода есенинской поэзии на китайский язык на примере стихотворений с образом березы, рассматриваются приемы преодоления трудностей в переводческой практике поэзии Есенина на китайский язык, соответствие перевода оригиналу по музыкальности, ритмической структуре, системе рифм. Самые сложные моменты перевода есенинской поэзии на китайский язык заключаются в передаче голоса поэта, его целостного мировосприятия, что проявляется в есенинских метафорических образах и общей композиции стиха. Esenin’s poems depicting landscapes always emphasize the kinship of man and nature. Among the trees that the poet uses as symbols, priority belongs to the birch. The paper examines the concept of the birch in Esenin’s early and mature poetry, the mood betrayed by the imagery of each verse, his philosophical contemplation expressed directly or obliquely. The author points out specific challenges of translating Esenin heritage into Chinese exemplified by verses containing the image of the birch. The paper discusses ways of overcoming translation challenges so that translation matches the original in its musical effect, rhythmic structure and rhyme pattern. The hardest challenge is that of preserving the poet’s voice, his integral perception of the world expressed through metaphorical language and general poetic composition.

Imperatives of Sustainable Development in the Shadow and in the Light of the Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic temporarily overshadowed all the previous concerns of the world community, and among them even existential challenges. The attitude towards sustainable development issues has moved into the “deferred demand” zone. The pandemic pushed the offensive and exacerbated the effect of another crisis in the global economy. At the same time, it is symptomatic that during the pandemic a significant improvement in the environmental situation was felt as a result of the reduction in greenhouse gas emissions and the release of other harmful production wastes. At the same time, the pandemic has accentuated the biomedical safety imperative and will inevitably make a corresponding adjustment to the list of top priorities for moving towards sustainable development goals. After the pause of the pandemic, the imperative of transition to a sustainable development regime will begin to act with significant intensification, bearing in mind the need to compensate for the loss of time and pace. Ensuring biomedical safety will be a special priority. The lessons of the pandemic convincingly confirm the understanding that real success in moving towards sustainable development goals in accordance with the 2030 Agenda cannot be imagined without the normalization of international relations and the establishment of broad cooperation in a global format. At the same time, the author proceeds from the integral perception of the concept of sustainable development. Summing up the pre-pandemic stage of the formation of the concept of sustainable development, its essence can be expressed as follows. Development will be sustainable if it is economically balanced, socially inclusive and balanced, environmentally responsible, biologically safe, institutionally oriented to the interests of the majority and respect for the rights of the minority. If at the same time it is assumed and guaranteed that the use of weapons of mass destruction will be excluded if the urge for military solutions to international conflicts fades. And, of course, on such a platform, debt to the future is unacceptable, as it was said. This, of course, is the ideal, and practice is determined and will be determined by a greater or lesser approximation to it.

Music, Mathematics and Computer Science: History of Interaction

The lecture “Music, Mathematics and Computer Science” characterizes by concrete examples various aspects of interaction of these studies with each other by incorporating the apparatus of corresponding scholarly disciplines (set theory, probability theory, information science, group theory, etc.). The role and meaning of these aspects in the formation of an integral perception about music and in the realization of practical creative musical goals are educed. Examination of these questions is what the lecture studies are devoted to as part of the educational courses “Mathematical Methods of Research in Musicology” and “Informational Technologies in Music” developed by the authors for the students of the St. Petersburg Rimsky-Korsakov State Conservatory and the Herzen State Pedagogical University of Russia. The lecture “Music, Mathematics and Computer Science” is subdivided into two parts. The fi rst part, “Music, Mathematics and Computer Science: History of Interaction” examines the processes of interconnection and interpenetration of various fi elds of music, mathematics and computer science, spanning the period from Ancient Times to the turn of the 20th and the 21st centuries. The second part of the lecture: “Music, Mathematics and Computer Science: Particular Features of Functioning of Computer-Musical Technologies” (due to be published in the journal’s next issue) is devoted to examining various aspects of developing and applying computer-musical technologies in contemporary musical practice, including musical composition, performance and the sphere of music education.

Service Functions of Tax Regulation for the Purposes of State Development in the Globalized Environment

The tax regulation is an important element of creation and distribution of the qualitative budgeting of a city or a state. Tax regulation allows evenly distributing the existing resources and thus ensuring the gradual development of a state. The task of legal regulation is to ensure the equal distribution of the tax burden and the formation of the integral perception on the part of the population of the suggested regulatory measures. The search of the equilibrium and the formation of the system of legal regulation based on the analysis of the best practices of the European states forms the relevance of the study. The novelty of the study is defined by the fact that to a greater extent, the formation of the model of sufficient tax regulation is possible if it is a targeted indicator of the social and economic development of the state. The authors of the paper except for analyzing the taxation systems of the majority of the EU states also define the way necessary for the implementation of the legislation elements in the states of the post-Soviet territory. According to the authors, it will allow to a greater extent define how the tax incomes should be distributed. The practical significance of the study is defined by the fact that at the implementation of the paper’s conclusions one may precisely define that different distribution of the funds will allow to a greater extent feasibly reforming the tax legislation in the developing countries.
