  • Волшебная Сказка О Летящих Конях Fairy Tale About Flying Horses
    № 4 АПРЕЛЬ 2006 APRIL ПОЧТОВЫЙ ЯЩИК / POST BOX Волшебная сказка о летящих конях В цирк на проспекте Вернадского мы попали в тот день случайно: хотелось детям доставить удовольствие, взяли билеты, оказались на конкурсном пока- зе Всемирного фестиваля циркового искусства «Идол». И не прогадали: пред- ставление с участием молодых звезд мировой арены было великолепным. Но когда последним номером программы выступали туркменские джигиты, вос- торгу нашему не было предела. На одних только коней-ахалтекинцев можно было смотреть как на произве- дение высокого искусства – какая стать, какие изгибы шеи, какая природная гармония! А уж какие пируэты выделывали всадники в колоритных националь- ных костюмах, просто не поддается описанию! Все трюки выполнялись на какой-то запредельной скорости – взгляд не поспевал за полетом лошадей по кругу. Молодые ребята, девушки и даже совсем юный мальчуган управлялись с лошадьми так, будто всю жизнь провели в седле. Вместе со зрителями мы аплодировали туркменским всадникам так, что потом болели ладони. И очень не хотелось расставаться с артистами, пода- рившими нам веру в волшебную сказку о летящих конях. Спасибо им за велико- лепное мастерство, за бережное сохранение лучших народных традиций! Семья Никифоровых Москва Fairy tale about flying horses That day we casually happened to be in the Circus on Vernadsky Prospekt: we bought tickets for children to make their day and appeared on competitive show of International Circus Festival «Idol». As it turned out, this was our forte: there was magnificent performance with participation of young stars of the world circus. Our delight exceeded expectations when we saw the last programme number – Turkmen horsemen. One can admire Akhal-Teke horses like objects of the art – what a point, what neck tournure, what natural harmony! Complex tricks of riders in colorful nation- al outfits – it baffles all description! All tricks were performed at unprecedent- ed speed, motions of the horses were too fast for the eyes to follow.

Abstract Folk sports are the countertype of modern sports: invented traditions, bolstered by tangible ritual and intangible myth, played by the common folk in order to express a romantic ethnic identity. Like other cultural forms, traditional sports and games around the world are becoming marginalized in the face of modernization and globalization. In 2003, UNESCO ratified the Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in an attempt to counter such trends of cultural homogenization. As elements of intangible cultural heritage, folk sports now fall under the auspices of UNESCO safeguarding policies.

Maksüdünov Kyrgyz-Turkish Manas University (Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan; e-mail: [email protected]) ECONOMIC AND SOCIO-CULTURAL IMPACTS OF THE WORLD NOMAD GAMES 1 The World Nomad Games (WNG) is a new form of large-scale events in the world. Thus, little empirical research is focused on understanding perceived impacts of the WNG and behavioural tendencies of the host community. The research aims to reveal the perceptions of the local people regarding the possible impacts from hosting the World Nomad Games in two different localities of the Kyrgyz Republic. The impacts of the WNG were measured using a survey conducted among local residents based on face-to-face interviews. The study examines data collected from two localities in the Kyrgyz Republic: 384 surveys from Bishkek, the cap- ital city of Kyrgyzstan (first group), and 286 interviews from Issyk-Kul region where the WNG were held (sec- ond group). According to the results, the local residents have positive perceptions about the impacts of the WNG and support hosting this event in Kyrgyzstan. The residents believe that the WNG result in the eco- nomic development, revitalization of the tourism sector, increased infrastructure investments. Moreover, the positive impacts include preservation and development of local cultures, host country promotion and en- hancement of the country’s image. However, hosting the WNG created different impacts in different locali- ties.
