Upon reflection, all the thousands of varied human enterprises are seen to have but a single end—the heart's joy. To this end we choose friends according to our inchnation in order that we may take pleasure in sharing our thoughts with them; we achieve high rank in order that our self-esteem may be gratified by the respect of others; we devise various kinds of drink, food, and snacks to please our taste; we seek out different kinds of music, composing a multitude of concertos, minuets, dances, and contredances to delight our ears; we build fine houses, plant gardens and orchards, and weave gold brocades and fabrics, embroider- ing them with pleasingly coloured silken threads, and deck ourselves out in such garments to give pleasure to the eye and provide softness to the * This translation of “Razgovor piati putnikov o istinnom shchastii v zhizni” is based on Skovoroda’s Povne zibrannia tvoriv u dvokh tomakh (Kyiv: Naukova dumka, 1973), 1: 324-56. Page references to this edition are given in square brackets. An abbreviated version of this dialogue, translated by George L. Kline, appeared in Russian Philosophy, ed. James M. Edie, James P. Scanlan, and Mary-Barbara Zeldin with the collaboration of George L. Kline (Chicago: Quadrangle Books, 1965; reprinted Knoxville: University of Tennessee Press, 1976, 1984), 1: 26-57. That translation was completed by Taras D. Zakydalsky. We would like to thank the University of Tennessee Press for permitting us to use the earlier translation. Skovoroda’s biblical quotations have been checked against the King James version of the Bible. All footnotes are the translators’. 2 Hryhorii Skovoroda body; we concoct fragrant spirits, powders, creams, and perfumes to gratify our sense of smell. In a word, we try to cheer up our spirit with every means we can devise. Oh, how great is the gaiety of the high-bom and prosperous in this world! In their houses the spirit hves, dissolved in joy and satisfaction. Oh, how precious you are, joy of the heart! Tsars, princes, and people of wealth pay uncounted thousands for you, while we who are poor and not prosperous nourish ourselves, as it were, from the cmmbs that fall from their tables. Just think of the triumphant splendour of the renowned cities of Europe. James: It is truly great. I have heard that nowhere are there more diversions and delights than in Paris and Venice. Athanasius: Tme, there are many over there, but until you bring them to us from Venice we shall perish here of boredom. Gregory: Stop talking nonsense, dear friends. High rank, a pleasant setting, various games and diversions, and all your many enterprises are powerless to bring joy to the spirit or to drive away the boredom that has taken possession of you. James: What then can do it? Gregory: Only one thing, and that is to discover in what tme happiness consists and then to acquire it. Athanasius: That is tme. We are bom for true happiness, and we travel toward it; our life is a road that flows like a river. James: I have long sought happiness, but nowhere have I been able to find it.

  • Epidemiology of Parkinson's Disease in the Southern Ukraine
    — !!!cifra_MNJ_№5_(tom16)_2020 01.07. Белоусова 07.07.Евдокимова ОРИГІНАЛЬНІ ДОСЛІДЖЕННЯ /ORIGINAL RESEARCHES/ UDC 616.858-036.22 DOI: 10.22141/2224-0713.16.5.2020.209248 I.V. Hubetova Odessa Regional Clinical Hospital, Odesa, Ukraine Odessa National Medical University, Odesa, Ukraine Epidemiology of Parkinson’s disease in the Southern Ukraine Abstract. Background. Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a slowly progressing neurodegenerative disease with accumulation of alpha-synuclein and the formation of Lewy bodies inside nerve cells. The prevalence of PD ranges from 100 to 200 cases per 100,000 population. However, in the Ukrainian reality, many cases of the disease remain undiagnosed, which affects the statistical indicators of incidence and prevalence. The purpose of the study is to compare PD epidemiological indices in the Southern Ukraine with all-Ukrainian rates. Material and methods. Statistical data of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine, public health departments of Odesa, Mykolaiv and Kherson regions for 2015–2017 were analyzed. There were used the methods of descriptive statistics and analysis of variance. Results. Average prevalence of PD in Ukraine is 67.5 per 100,000 population — it is close to the Eastern European rate. The highest prevalence was registered in Lviv (142.5 per 100,000), Vinnytsia (135.9 per 100,000), Cherkasy (108.6 per 100,000) and Kyiv (107.1 per 100,000) regions. The lowest rates were in Luhansk (37.9 per 100,000), Kyrovohrad (42.5 per 100,000), Chernivtsi (49.0 per 100,000) and Ternopil (49.6 per 100,000) regions. In the Southern Ukraine, the highest prevalence of PD was found in Mykolaiv region.

  • Anders Åslund
    Anders Åslund Ukraine: What Went Wrong and How to Fix It Anders Åslund BESET BY RUSSIAN MILITARY AGGRESSION and the legacy from its years of economic mismanagement, Ukraine faces an existential crisis that has also roiled the politics of Europe. Yet there is a glimmer of hope and opportunity for this tormented country. In 2014 Ukraine carried out free and fair elections of a new president and parliament. With this democratic foundation, Ukraine can shape its future and return to economic and political stability. In this book, one of the world’s leading experts on Ukraine offers its new leadership a strategy for reform. Anders Åslund maintains that the country’s fundamental problem is corruption and poor governance, which requires radical reform of the state from the top down. He calls for the cleansing of the judiciary and law enforcement, including the abolition of the many intrusive inspection agencies, which use a regime of licenses, permits, and certifications to squeeze the lifeblood of the economy. The book also advocates cuts in wasteful public expenditures and deregulation to promote growth—but it also calls for international financing spearheaded by the International Monetary Fund. The European UKRAINE Union and the United States must also help. The book focuses extensively on the energy sector, which Åslund argues is the biggest source of top-level corruption and wasteful subsidies and should be reformed with a unified system of energy prices determined by the market, not government. Åslund also details a series of reforms in education and health care.
