  • The Spectator and Dialogues of Power in Early Soviet Theater By
    Directed Culture: The Spectator and Dialogues of Power in Early Soviet Theater By Howard Douglas Allen A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Victoria E. Bonnell, Chair Professor Ann Swidler Professor Yuri Slezkine Fall 2013 Abstract Directed Culture: The Spectator and Dialogues of Power in Early Soviet Theater by Howard Douglas Allen Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology University of California, Berkeley Professor Victoria E. Bonnell, Chair The theater played an essential role in the making of the Soviet system. Its sociological interest not only lies in how it reflected contemporary society and politics: the theater was an integral part of society and politics. As a preeminent institution in the social and cultural life of Moscow, the theater was central to transforming public consciousness from the time of 1905 Revolution. The analysis of a selected set of theatrical premieres from the Bolshevik Revolution in 1917 to the end of Cultural Revolution in 1932 examines the values, beliefs, and attitudes that defined Soviet culture and the revolutionary ethos. The stage contributed to creating, reproducing, and transforming the institutions of Soviet power by bearing on contemporary experience. The power of the dramatic theater issued from artistic conventions, the emotional impact of theatrical productions, and the extensive intertextuality between theatrical performances, the press, propaganda, politics, and social life. Reception studies of the theatrical premieres address the complex issue of the spectator’s experience of meaning—and his role in the construction of meaning.

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract Language, as an instrument of socialization, reveals the most important aspects of the relationship between individuals and society, while national linguistic personality reflects the characteristics of national culture and attitude. To understand a certain national personality, one must express its cultural values and specific attributes on the basis of these aforementioned aspects. In this re- gard, this paper examines the ideological and cultural core of the Russian and Kazakh people by focusing on certain cultural, symbolic, and stereotypical features. Comparative analysis of the Ka- zakh and Russian linguistic personalities shows that fundamental reforms in ideological, political, and social spheres have transformed the national linguistic personalities of both these regions. Keywords Socialization, National Linguistic Personality, Cultural Concepts, Lingua-Cultural Description, National Character 1. Introduction The process of obtaining knowledge is based on an individual’s need to expand certain aspects such as spiritual orientation, socialization, and national personality.

Conceptual provisions of didactics, linguodidactics, ethnolinguodidactics and theoretical provisions on language and foreign-language education served a basis for the ethnolinguodidactic approach as a productive theoretical foundation for realization of multilingual education. The main attention is paid to interaction and interference of the contacting languages (Adyghe, Russian and English). In the context of this research, it seemed important to consider the issue of the correlation between language and culture which is brightly displayed in verbal communication.

My central concern in this study is to show how non-colonizers such as Russians, who were perceived as racially white but were not colonizers, and the offspring of interracial marriages between Chinese and Russians, (Taiwanese) Chinese, and Koreans in Manchukuo simultaneously mapped out and destabilized the boundaries of race and nationality within the processes of nation-building and (de)colonization. This study draws upon historiography, narratology, reader-response criticisms, and various literary and cultural theories to examine one of the central concerns: the use of language in narrative and (oral) history; the systems of signs are not only a primary and powerful means to forge racial, hybrid, and national identities; they are also the very location where boundary making and crossing are simultaneously constituted and deconstructed.

Theology. History" From 8 to 10 February 2019, the VII All-Russian Scientific Theological Conference “The Church. Theology. History”, dedicated to the memory of new martyrs and confessors of the Russian Church was held in Yekaterinburg Theological Seminary. A real excitement among the participants of the forum was caused by the report of the Mother Superior of the Alexander Nevsky Novo-Tikhvinsky Monastery Dominika (Korobeinikova). Her report was devoted to the last months of the earthly life of the Imperial Family in Yekaterinburg and the sisters’ of the Novo-Tikhvinsky monastery help to them. Both the chosen topic and immersion thoroughly in it, and audio-visual accompaniment - all this with extraordinary completeness served to reveal the theme of the feat of the new martyrs and confessors of the Russian Church, to which the conference was dedicated, and caused a lively response from its participants. The report of Abbess Dominika at the conference "Church. Theology. Story": Over the past 2018, a lot has been said about the feat of the new martyrs who suffered 100 years ago, and above all, about the feat of the holy Imperial Family. But just as we don’t get tired of remembering our relatives and loved ones, so is every memory of our holy Regal Passion-bearers, every detail of their lives and their martyrdom valuable to us.

  • Fashion Design
    Fashion is a general term for a popular style or practice, especially in clothing, footwear, accessories, makeup, body piercing, or furniture. Fashion refers to a distinctive and often habitual trend in the style with which a person dresses, as well as to prevailing styles in behaviour. Fashion also refers to the newest creations of textile designers.[1] The more technical term, costume, has become so linked to the term "fashion" that the use of the former has been relegated to special senses like fancy dress or masquerade wear, while "fashion" means clothing more generally and the study of it. Although aspects of fashion can be feminine or masculine, some trends are androgynous.[2][3] Fashion design Fashion design is the art of the application of design and aesthetics or natural beauty to clothing and accessories. Fashion design is influenced by cultural and social latitudes, and has varied over time and place. Fashion designers work in a number of ways in designing clothing and accessories; and, because of the time required to bring a garment onto the market, must at times anticipate changing consumer tastes. Fashion designers attempt to design clothes which are functional as well as aesthetically pleasing. They must consider who is likely to wear a garment and the situations in which it will be worn. They have a wide range and combinations of materials to work with and a wide range of colors, patterns and styles to choose from. Though most clothing worn for everyday wear falls within a narrow range of conventional styles, unusual garments are usually sought for special occasions, such asevening wear or party dresses.
