Saratov’s plot in Yu. N. Chumakov’s letters
No full textThe article discusses the place of Saratov-based plot in Yu. N. Chumakov’s letters addressed to the author of the article. The subject of discussion in the correspondence is the defense of Yu. N. Chumakov’s dissertation at Saratov University in 1970 and its role in his scientifi c biography. The defense of the dissertation with Yu. M. Lotman as the fi rst opponent became the key event of the Saratov plot and its climax. Having singled out fragments from the correspondence related to the plot of Saratov, the author seeks to explain the direction of the ensuing epistolary dialogue, why the defense of the dissertation was perceived by Yu. N. Chumakov as a more than signifi cant event for him, especially in the context of his dramatic biography. The author proves that the defense was an explosion of the linear sequence of the text of life, which dramatically changed the fate of the scientist. The desire to talk in detail about the defense, to fi nd out what impression it made, and to look at what was happening on that memorable day for him through the eyes of the addressee of the letter, betrayed the desire to read and interpret his fate again and again. Particular attention is paid in the correspondence to the personalities of such outstanding philologists, professors of Saratov University as A. P. Skaftymov and E. I. Pokusaev. Yu. N. Chumakov was not A. P. Skaftymov’s student and was not familiar with him, but specifi cally noted the acquisition and subsequent development of the principles of a scientifi c approach to the work, set out in his theoretical article in 1923. About the personality of E. I. Pokusaev, his supervisor, and the history of the relationship with him, Yu. N. Chumakov wrote in great detail. Having told about the role of E. I. Pokusaev, who supported the dissertation at the defense, and having outlined his complex, large and humanly attractive personality, Yu.N. Chumakov completes the plot of Saratov, which was very meaningful for him, primarily for self-understanding of his scientifi c path
Yu. N. Chumakov: Memories of Meeting Yu. M. Lotman
No full textThe article features an excerpt from Chumakov’s memoirs, describing how, in the late 1960s, he got acquainted with Lotman’s book Lectures on Structural Poetics and then met the author of the lectures at the Pushkin Conference in Pskov. According to the memoirist, Lotman’s Lectures on Structural Poetics gave literary studies in the 1970s a new language, which may then have been modified within some other schools of literary studies, but it laid the foundation for the scientific description of the fiction text. Investigation of the fiction text has been characterized since the late 1960s by the structuralist approach. The memoirs also mention Chumakov’s defending his candidate dissertation, in which Lotman acted as an opponent (the dissertation was entitled “Problems of Pushkin’s Poetics: (Lyrics, The Stone Guest, Eugene Onegin)” and was defended in Saratov, in 1970.
One part of Chumakov’s candidate dissertation, as well as his report at the Pushkin conference in Pskov, was devoted to the role of the notes and “Passages from Onegin’s Journey” in Pushkin’s novel “Eugene Onegin”. Independently of each other, Chumakov and Lotman came to the conclusion that the notes are not a supplement, but real independent parts within the novel in verse, along with its eight chapters
Conceptual basis of international jurisdiction
No full textConstant changes in international relations and global challenges in the geopolitical arena disrupt the effectiveness and relevance of existing approaches to international justice. In this context, there is a need to analyze the conceptual foundations of this field in order to adapt to modern realities. The main goal of this study is to analyze the conceptual foundations of international justice, taking into account the latest scientific achievements and global perspectives. The focus of the research is the formation of new theoretical approaches and conceptual frameworks for the analysis and understanding of international criminal law. The methodological basis of the study is based on the analysis of scientific works in the field of international criminal law, as well as the use of modern scientific approaches to information processing. The article reveals new aspects and perspectives of the study of the conceptual foundations of international justice, which can contribute to the further development of the theory and practice of disclosure and investigation of serious violations of international law. The author highlights four conceptual ideas that underlie International Criminal Justice. The first concept concerns the principle of legality, which takes into account not only legal norms, but also social and legal transformations. The second idea considers the principle of international crime, which covers serious violations of international law. The third concept concerns individual responsibility for international crimes, regardless of the social status and official position of the subject of the offense. The fourth idea is the principle of universal jurisdiction, which provides a legal response to serious violations of international law, regardless of the circumstances and the subject of their commission. These concepts reflect the goal of international criminal justice, which is the inevitability of punishment for serious violations of international law, since their commission threatens the security of all humanity
Marine algal flora of Pengchia Yu and its special place in the marine phytogeography of Taiwan
No full textA total of 52 taxa of marine benthic algae is reported from Pengchia Yu, a remote islet located off northeastern Taiwan. Two taxa represent new records for the marine flora of Taiwan, three taxa show their range extension. This islet acts as a tropical refugium in a region that is widely known to have cold water floristic affinities. The effects of the sea surface-water temperature and current on the distribution of algae are also discussed.TR: CS9510874Source type: Electronic(1
Formation of A. S. Pushkin’s Creative Personality in the Mirror of Yu. N. Tynianov’s Novel “Pushkin”
No full textThe features of the image of the formation of Alexander Pushkin’s creative personality in Yu. Tynyanov’s novel “Pushkin” are investigated. The question of realization Yu. Tynyanov’s creative concept in this work is raised. Tynyanov sought to escape from the prevailing of the absolutization of the individual and the work of the poet in literary studies of the time and create his own interpretation based on comparative historical and formal approaches. The author of the article points out that the writer depicts the poet as an unusual child deprived of love and understanding of relatives and, as a consequence, lonely. Attention of Yu. Tynianov to the origins of the creative personality is emphasized. It is shown that the writer refers to the description of how the boy masters the art of watching and reflecting, how he awakens the love of literature and folk art, develops a tendency to poetry. It is noted that Yu. Tynyanov’s interpretation of Pushkin’s childhood is sometimes distressing, but in the description of the youth perspective of the narrative changes: in Lyceum, overcoming the drama of his awareness of the differences from others, the young poet begins to understand the value and purpose of creative personality. The conclusion about the links between the principles of image formation of the poet’s personality and Yu. Tynyanov’s concept of historicity is made

Yu-Ling Wang
Abstract：
The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the traditional instruction with film assisting teaching and student’s academic achievement on Geography in Yu Cheng Senior High School. Two classes of Yu Cheng Senior High School were randomly chosen as samples, the Experimental Group (n = 41) with Film Assisting Teaching and the Control Group (n = 40) with Traditional Instruction.
According to the standard learning subjects for high school students, a questionnaire was designed as an instrument. It contains four subscales: Knowledge、Affection、Technique and Curricular. A t-test (p < .05) of SPSS 10.0 was used to analyze the differences between the experimental group and the control group on each of those four scales.
Only the subscale of Knowledge was found significantly difference between the experimental group and the control group. The subscales of Affection、Technique and Curricular were found no significantly differences between the experimental group and the control group.
