An Aesthetics of Exclusion: Konstantin Vaginov's Kozlinaia pesn'
Get PDFThis thesis renegotiates the position of Konstantin Vaginov’s novel Kozlinaia pesn΄ within the meta-text of post-Revolutionary culture, challenging the long accepted view that Vaginov maps out a programme of exclusion from Bolshevik reality in an attempt to preserve the classical ideals of pre-Revolutionary Russian culture from ruin. Vaginov’s ambivalent treatment of such trends in intellectual culture as the nature of the life culture dualism, the tenability of culture a priori and framings of rebirth in projections of cultural history are dialogised with the theories of Viacheslav Ivanov, Viktor Shklovskii, Roman Iakobson, Mikhail Bakhtin and Lev Pumpianskii.
In addition, critical reception centred around the novel’s status as roman-à-clef is also challenged, particularly the insistence that the novel accurately depicts the reality of intellectual life during the Soviet 1920s and the consequences of the struggle for hegemony over culture.
As an alternative to such readings, the world-view of an all encompassing life is posited as central to Vaginov’s aesthetics, marked by the tendencies to lay low and simultaneously affirm and negate any stance taken in the struggle for hegemony over culture
Severe progressive brain atrophy in pediatric multiple sclerosis
No full textBACKGROUND: Multiple sclerosis is an immune-mediated disease of the central nervous system. Progressive brain atrophy is a known marker of patient disability and cognitive impairment in MS patient, but limited information is available about the clinical and cognitive consequences in the pediatric population. CASE REPORT: We present a case of aggressive pediatric-onset MS with severe rapidly progressive brain atrophy, neurological disability, and cognitive deterioration. Serial brain MRI studies demonstrate ongoing cerebral atrophy correlating with severe deficits on serial neuropsychological testing. CONCLUSIONS: A subset of pediatric MS patient may be vulnerable to severe cognitive deterioration associated with marked brain atrophy.Peer reviewe
Non-tax revenue and subnational democracy: evidence from Colombia
No full textAn influential group of political economists posits a negative relationship between the relative size of non-tax revenues in public balance sheets and the level of democracy in a given county. While empirical evidence for this proposition is largely based on cross-national studies, scholars have largely neglected subnational contexts as important domains of research. Addressing this disjuncture, the author studies the electoral impact of two important subnational non-tax revenues - natural resource royalties and central-government fiscal transfers - at the municipal level in Colombia. Employing a propensity score matching approach to attenuate problems of omitted variable bias, a quantitative analysis of Colombia's 1119 municipalities shows that higher levels of fiscal transfers and petroleum royalties had no discernible impact on the average level of competitiveness in the 2007 and 2011 municipal elections. If anything, there seems to be a positive impact of non-tax revenues on electoral contestation. Supported by qualitative evidence from theoretical outliers in the set of observations, the results suggest that non-tax revenue promotes electoral competition by raising the stakes of attaining political office. At the same time, abundance in fiscal transfers and resource royalties may undermine democratic governance through means that are not reflected in electoral margins.M.A.Includes bibliographical referencesIncludes vitaby Lukas Konstantin Kelle

Zur Poetik des Lyrikers Konstantin M. Fofanov
Get PDFThe present work is dedicated to the study of the artistic work of the Russian poet Konstantin Michajlovič Fofanov (1862 - 1911). He was one of the best-known, if not the most famous and beloved poets in Russia in the eighties. The oeuvre Fofanovs may also claim an interest in being examined in a monographic representation, since the poet was not only a fashionable mass author, but was also regarded as pioneer and appreciated by more important, especially symbolist poets.Die vorliegende Arbeit ist der Untersuchung des künstlerischen Werks des russischen Dichters Konstantin Michajlovič Fofanov (1862 - 1911) gewidmet. Er war in den achtziger Jahren einer der bekanntesten, wenn nicht der bekannteste und beliebteste Dichter in Rußland. Das Oeuvre Fofanovs darf darüber hinaus auch deshalb ein Interesse beanspruchen, in einer monographischen Darstellung untersucht zu werden, da der Dichter nicht nur modischer Massenautor war, sondern auch von bedeutenderen, insbesondere symbolistischen Dichtern als Wegbereiter angesehen und geschätzt wurde

LITERARY BYZANTISM IN KONSTANTIN LEONTYEV'S NOVEL "ODYSSEUS OF POLIHRONIADES"
No full textThe article deals with Byzantine quotes in Konstantin Leontyev’s novel Odysseus of Polihroniades. The author regarded this novel to be the best of all his works. The Byzantine influence was discovered through analyzing the Athos regular readings including the typicon of the St. Panteleimon Monastery, where Konstantin Leontyev spent 18 months. It is emphasized that the text of the novel contains some of the Athos. The paper analyzes the topic of time recurrence, developed in the novel, which is different from the Christian conception of linear time. The article examines both the sacred text of regular readings and the quotes and reminiscences connected with the names of St. John Chrysostom and St. Isaac the Syrian. The article concludes that some elements of Leontyev’s future Doctrine of a New Eastern Culture are presented in his novel Odysseus of Polihroniades. The Byzantine quotes, therefore, help to understand the mechanism of the authors’ ideas implementation in the novel
