В статье рассматриваются основные модели звуковой драматургии в современном белорусском игровом кино. Звуковая драматургия трактуется как структурно- семантическая организация внутрикадровой и закадровой формы звуковых компонентов (речи, музыки, шумов) в их разнообразных композиционно-драматургических функциях в целях создания целостного звукового и звукозрительного образа фильма. Каждый из основных звуковых компонентов обладает своими свойствами, однако их можно классифицировать по следующим признакам: функциональность, содержательность, фонизм. Для речевого и шумового компонентов характерны все основные свойства (композиционно-драматургические функции, структурно-семантическая значимость, громкостные, темповые, тембровые характеристики). Музыкальный компонент наиболее сложный по своей структуре и отличается как имманентно присущими ему характеристиками (музыкально-выразительные средства, жанрово-стилевые черты, особенности композиторской техники и др.), так и формами существования в экранном произведении. Вступая в сложное взаимодействие, все звуковые компоненты создают звуковую драматургию, которая является

  • Constructivism in Ukrainian Theater Georgy Kovalenko
    Harvard UkrainianConstru StudiesC t36,ivism no. 3–4in u (2019):krainian 389–413. theater 389 Constructivism in Ukrainian Theater Georgy Kovalenko onstru Ctivism, like other avant-garde movements, was viewed by its creators as an international art. It is no accident that the mul- Ctitude of manifestoes and programmatic articles, slogans, and appeals always used terms like “human being,” “world,” and “universe”—although they did so without defining them more precisely or concretely, or with even the slightest mention of a particular territory where the art was expected to carry out its transformative mission. Nevertheless, some specificity was implied, although directed at features of a different order and expressed, as a rule, by the adjective “new”: new person, new world, new art. However, theory is one thing and practice is something else altogether. In reality, constructivism, especially constructivism in the theater, proved to be an art that was powerfully rooted in tradition— above all, in national tradition. The art historian Nikolai Punin, reflecting on Russian art of the 1910s, perceptively noted: “Thus indeed…cubism, which had appeared to be an international art form of a new generation, was broken by national, and then by individual traditions.”1 The same may be said of Ukrainian constructivist theater design, albeit tempering the verb a bit: perhaps not broken, but rather colored, reorganized, and transformed by the traditions of Ukrainian art. Of course, the formula that Liubov´ Popova presented in her set design for Vsevolod Меyerhold’s production The Magnanimous Cuckold (premiered 1922) (fig. 1, below) may also be applied in a general way to describe the works of Ukrainian constructivist theater, but only insofar 1.

El cine de ambos es poético, espiritual y místico, y destaca por ser revolucionario en lo que se refiere a la creación de códigos iconográficos —para lo que se valen de textos donde aparecen la tradición cultural etnográfica, el folclore, leyendas populares y doctrinas místicas.

  • Searching for Inclusive Narrative: Crimean Tatars in Ukrainian Films
    Studia z Dziejów Rosji i Europy Środkowo-Wschodniej ■ LIII (3) Olga Gontarska The Tadeusz Manteuffel Institute of History of the Polish Academy of Sciences Searching for inclusive narrative: Crimean Tatars in Ukrainian films … no savage conquerors, no looters, but equal to Zaporozhians – our ancestors …не як дикі зайди, грабічники, а на рівні з запорожцями – наші предки Omelian Pritsak!1 Zarys treści: Kinematografia, w tym kinematografia ukraińska, jest wciąż niedocenianym źró- dłem w badaniach historycznych. Ukraińskie filmy doby niezależności stanowią natomiast bardzo interesujące i ważne źródło ilustrujące zmiany społeczne i różne perspektywy patrzenia na historię w okresie transformacji. Po 1991 r. określenie roli i miejsca Tatarów Krymskich w historii i społeczeństwie Ukrainy stało się istotnym wyzwaniem dla historiografii i państwa. Ukraińskie filmy fabularne z okresu 1991–2017 to dowody podejmowania prób zmierzenia się z tym tematem i reprezentacja różnych koncepcji dotyczących kwestii krymskotatarskiej. Outline of contents: Films, including Ukrainian feature films, remain an undervalued source in historical research. However, Ukrainian movies produced in the period of independence are an interesting and important source and mirror social changes and various perspectives regarding history in the times of transformation. After 1991 it was a significant challenge for the state and historians to define the role of the Crimean Tatars in Ukrainian history and society. Ukrainian feature films from the years 1991–2017 are evidence of attempts to address and present various concepts related to this issue. Słowa kluczowe: kinematografia ukraińska, Tatarzy Krymscy, narracja historyczna, film histo- ryczny, Chanat Krymski Key words: Ukrainian movies, Crimean Tatars, historical narrative, historical films, Crimean Khanate 1 О.
