    No full text
    The object of research of this article is the diptych by A. V. Korolev. The writer suggests trying to determine what is left in the stolen and ineptly altered story “The Lonely House in Vasilyevsky” from its brilliant author A. S. Pushkin (with reference to his earlier and later works); what the memorable plagiarist V. P. Titov (Tit Cosmocratov) had brought into it; and what in “The Devil in Love” appeared under the influence of the classics, and not only Pushkin, thanks to Korolev himself. The aim of this study is to reveal regular patterns in the system of corrections made in the “story-reconstruction” and to establish the logical meaning of the restorations made by the writer. The systemic approach, combining historical-literary, historical-functional and receptive aspects of exploration of a work of art and the procedures of contextual, intertextual and textological analysis, constitutes the methodological foundation of the work. It is proved that Korolev simplified and clarified Titov’s utterances and approached the rhythm of Pushkin’s verse, freeing speech from bookish rhetorical clichés, archaic Slavonicisms, and official terminology. The author analyzes the elegiac frame of the story, which makes the work of Korolev particularly harmonious, and reveals how the moral and intellectual status of the narrator (Pushkin) is recreated and how his trusting relationships with the reader are strengthened with the help of ironic comments and literary-critical remarks. The article demonstrates how dynamism and expressiveness of the narrative is enhanced with the help of narrative simplifications. The functions of landscape sketches are determined, the regularity of successive seasonal changes in the story is established, and the symbols of temporal images are revealed. The author concludes that while recreating mystical episodes Korolev falls under the influence of Gogol’s prose. For the same reason, the modern writer uses many more expressive utterances mentioning the devil than there are such words in the original. The author considers variants of revision of the main characters (Vera, Pavel, Bartholomew) and substantial alteration of episodic ones (Lavrentiy). Several significant plot differences are analyzed. The study allows concluding that Korolev constructs a new, “corrected” reality in “The Devil in Love” in the best traditions of simulacrum aesthetics

    “The Devil in Love” By A. V. Korolev: Experience of Reconstruction

    Предметом исследования, проведенного в рамках данной статьи, является диптих А. В. Королева. Писатель предлагает попытаться определить, что в похищенной и неумело перелицованной повести «Уединенный домик на Васильевском» осталось от ее гениального автора А. С. Пушкина (с проекцией на более ранние и будущие его произведения); что в нее привнес памятливый плагиатор В. П. Титов (Тит Космократов); что во «Влюбленном бесе» появилось под воздействием классики, и не только пушкинской, с легкой руки самого А. В. Королева. Цель наших разысканий – выявление закономерностей в системе внесенных в «повесть-реконструкцию» коррективов, определение логического смысла выполненных писателем восстановлений. Методологической основой работы послужил системный подход, объединивший историко-литературный, историко-функциональный, рецептивный аспекты изучения художественного произведения, приёмы контекстуального, интертекстуального, текстологического анализа. Доказывается, что А. В. Королев упростил и уточнил высказывания В. П. Титова, приблизился к ритму пушкинского «постава», высвободив речь от книжных риторических штампов, славянизмов архаического типа, официальной терминологии. Анализируется элегическое обрамление повести, которое придает произведению А. В. Королева особенную стройность. Прослеживается, как с помощью иронических комментариев и замечаний литературно-критического характера воссоздается нравственный и интеллектуальный статус повествователя (А. С. Пушкина), упрочиваются его доверительные отношения с читателем. Демонстрируется, как путём сокращений достигается усиление динамизма и выразительности повествования. Определяются функции пейзажных зарисовок, устанавливается закономерность последовательных сезонных изменений в повести, раскрывается символика темпоральных образов. Указывается на случаи детализации описаний. Делается вывод, что при воссоздании мистических эпизодов А. В. Королев испытывает воздействие гоголевской прозы. По этой же причине у современного писателя на порядок больше, чем в «оригинале», экспрессивных высказываний, связанных с упоминанием черта. Рассматриваются варианты доработки образов главных героев (Вера, Павел, Варфоломей) и существенной переделки эпизодических (Лаврентий). Анализируется несколько значительных сюжетных отличий. Проделанная работа позволяет прийти к заключению, что А. В. Королев конструирует во «Влюбленном бесе» новую, «исправленную» реальность – в лучших традициях эстетики симулякра.The object of research of this article is the diptych by A. V. Korolev.

    An exponential two-node queueing network with one server on each node is studied. The first node is of unlimited capacity while the buffer length before the second node is equal to r, r < 1. In addition to usual (positive) customers arriving to the first queue, there are negative customers arriving at each node. Two disciplines of the node conjugation are considered: discipline with internal losses and blocking with repeated service on the first node server. In both cases, necessary and sufficient ergodicity conditions are obtained and an algorithm is developed for the computation of the queueing network stationary state probabilities

    Postavení Ruska v mezinárodním obchodě

    No full text
    Rusko je vysokopříjmovou ekonomikou s nominálním hrubým domácím produktem ve výši 2,1 bilionu USD, což z něj činí 8. největší ekonomiku světa, za Brazílií a před Itálií. Růst se od roku 2009 snižuje, v současnosti dosahuje úrovně 1,3%. Nezaměstnanost je obecně malá, 4,9%, ale inflace měřená indexem spotřebitelských cen (CPI) se zvýšila na 7,8%, přičemž referenční úrokové sazby se také zvýšily, na více než 8%. Země je členem různých obchodních, hospodářských a jiných mezinárodních organizací, včetně Světové obchodní organizace (WTO), Ekonomického seskupení Asie a Tichomoří (APEC), OSN, Mezinárodního měnového fondu (IMF), Euroasijské hospodářské unie (EEU) a BRICS. Členství v těchto organizacích silně ovlivňuje její dovozní a vývozní politiku. Rusko spoléhá zejména na vývoz uhlovodíků, což představuje nejméně 68% celkového vývozu. Primárním cílem této práce bylo provést makroenvironmentální analýzu mezinárodního ekonomického a obchodního postavení Ruska s ohledem na jeho politiku zahraničního obchodu. Pro dosažení tohoto cíle se vycházelo z těchto předpokladů: vláda přijala proaktivní opatření na ochranu investorů/spotřebitelů a aktivně podporovala přímé zahraniční investice do místních zdrojů, aby zvýšila domácí produktivitu. Dalším předpokladem je souvislost mezi členstvím ve WTO a kladnými ekonomickými výsledky v poslední době. Tento předpoklad vychází z analýzy různých podrobných sekundárních výzkumných materiálů, domácího ekonomického a mezinárodního obchodního prostředí a konkurenceschopnosti. Hlavní identifikovanou charakteristikou bylo přílišné spoléhání se na vývoz uhlovodíků. Navzdory tomu, že si Rusko posledních pět let udržuje obchodní přebytek, je citlivé na nestálost v oblasti cen ropy. Aby zmírnilo možný dopad vytvářejícího se geopolitického uspořádání, potřebuje modernizovat a rozvinout jiná odvětví, zejména zemědělství a sektor financí. Novým problémem jsou rostoucí snahy o znárodňování klíčových odvětví. Současná vláda uplatňuje ve vztahu k celým hospodářským odvětvím ve stále větší míře nacionalistickou politiku. Politická kontrola přináleží k efektivnímu podnikání firmy, která investovala do místních zdrojů. A kromě toho eskalace ukrajinské geopolitické krize bude mít pravděpodobně dopad na růst a směřování ve střednědobém horizontu.Russia is a high-income economy with a nominal GDP of $2.1 trillion ranking it as the 8th largest economy in the world behind Brazil and ahead of Italy. Growth has been declining since 2009 to the current level of 1.3%. Unemployment is generally low at 4.9% but CPI inflation has risen to 7.8% with benchmark interest rates also rising to more than 8%. The country holds membership in various trading, economic, and other international blocs including; WTO, APEC, UN, IMF, EEU, and BRICs. Membership in these organizations has strongly influenced its import and export policies. Russia mainly relies on exports of hydrocarbons, which constitute at least 68% of total exports. This thesis had the primary objective of undertaking a macro-environmental analysis of Russia's international economic and trading position vis-a-vis its foreign trade policies. To achieve this objective, these hypotheses were proposed; the government had proactive policies to protective investors/consumers and that it actively encouraged inward FDI to boost domestic productivity. The other hypothesis proposed the linkage between membership in the WTO and recent positive economic performance. It utilized varied secondary background research material to analyze; domestic economic and international business environments and competitiveness. The major challenge identified was the overreliance on hydrocarbons exports. Despite maintaining a trade surplus position for the past five years, Russia is susceptible to volatility in crude oil prices. To mitigate potential impact of evolving geopolitical positions, it needs to modernize and broaden other sectors especially agricultural and financial sectors. An emerging challenge is the increasing verve towards nationalization of key sectors. The current administration has been increasingly adopting nationalistic policies towards broad economic sectors. Political mastery is pertinent to effective undertaking of business for an inward FDI firm. Furthermore, the escalation of the Ukrainian geopolitical crisis is likely to impact on growth and positioning in the medium-term

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
