Appealing to the problem is associated with updating the concept of “world literature” in Western science. The relevance of the topic is determined by the need for a diachronic and synchronous description of the I. Goethe’s tragedy translations in the context of the comparative literature achievements. The history of translation takes on a continual dimension. In studying the translation’s internal morphological structure by the classic, they highlight the existential potential inherent in it, the revitalization of the text. The purpose of the study is reception and filiation of Goethe’s ideas towards translation, which underlies cultural continuity. The goal has predetermined the tasks: to analyze Goethe’s introspective interpretation of the concept of “status of a translator” with a projection onto the reader, to consider the poetic idiolect and sociocultural foundations of tragedy translation. The cultural transfer method is used to analyze changes in translation as a receiving work; the hermeneutic method with elements of the thesaurus and phenomenological approaches helps to understand the archetypes that maintain stability. The tragedy translation strategies in the context of Goethe’s etalon and “expert” ideas about translation are explored in the article. Goethe acknowledged that we translate every text into another language – approximately or precisely. In translation, the original not only reproduces itself, but also “grows”. He considered the translation, the reconstruction of the work system in another language, regeneration, amplification. Goethe examined a number of cultural, historical translation issues. The relationship between translatable and untranslated is especially fragile due to the spontaneity of Goethe, the artist and the thinker. As a result, the text does not sound like an eternity-oriented poetic act, but in inimitably private, like the statement “here and now”. Goethe called the prose text of the poetic work “the initiator of hunger”: it encourages the reader to study the original. Interlinear, an extensive path from phrase to phrase without omissions, implies academic accuracy and is a kind of semantic standard. Goethe leads in different scenes the same lines (semantic axioms), highlights words with “diminutive” semantics. Many statements are based on the rules of paroemia. Languages that are not within the same cultural range provide examples of expressive discrepancies. The approach of the most Russian translators can be called an assimilating strategy.

Este artigo tem como tema a relação entre literatura, religião e modernidade. A partir deste, desdobra uma problemática em torno da irrupção de uma autonomia crítico-criativa na formação literária brasileira, no início do século XX, e a relação dessa autonomia com a heteronomia estético-religiosa vigente naquele contexto. O estudo propõe desenvolver essa problemática a partir do papel que a obra poética de Augusto dos Anjos (1884-1914) tem para a história da literatura brasileira. O objetivo do artigo é reconhecer a originalidade de Anjos em relação ao contexto literário vigente e, num segundo momento, analisar o poema Viagem de um vencido numa perspectiva teológico-literária, tendo em mente a problemática da relação acima mencionada. Nas conclusões destaca-se as implicações teológicas dos elementos de originalidade da poesia de Anjos; a pertinência da mediação teórico-metodológica da teologia da cultura de Paul Tillich para essa perspectiva crítica; bem como a contribuição de uma abordagem que considere a temática religiosa para a compreensão do processo histórico-literário da poesia brasileira.Palavras-chave: Poesia brasileira.

Within this theme, it addresses this relationship as an issue concerning the emergence of a critical-creative autonomy in the formation of Brazilian literary culture in the early twentieth century, and the relationship of this autonomy with the current aesthetic-religious heteronomy in that context. The study develops this problem from the important role that the poetic work of Augusto dos Anjos (1884-1914) plays in the history of Brazilian literature. The objective of this article is to recognize Anjos’ originality regarding his literary context and, secondly, it aims to analyze the poem Viagem de um vencido (Journey of a defeated man) in a theological and literary perspective, taking into consideration the problem previously mentioned. In conclusion, the article highlights the following aspects: the theological implications of the originality of Anjos’ poetry; the theoretical and methodological relevance of Paul Tillich’s Theology of Culture for this critical analysis; and the contribution of an approach that considers religious themes to understand the historical and literary process of Brazilian poetry.Keywords: Brazilian poetry.

The Relationship

Part V explores the relationship between the dramatic history of the twentieth century and the transformations of Russian literary culture and poetics, arguing that the story is one of unexpected continuities as much as rupture. The Part outlines the development of Russian modernism and the avant-garde in the Silver Age (1890s–1917), moving on to the avant-garde poetics and institutions reinvented in late Soviet (1960s–early 1980s), and treating underground and post-Soviet literature (since 1991), as well as the émigré literature of Russia Abroad. Émigré and Soviet literature are shown to follow some similar patterns and themes, just as official and underground literature alike explore ways to represent the century’s catastrophes, and to test the responsibilities of the intelligentsia. The desire to break with the past emerges as a theme, as does a struggle over forms of cultural continuity. Women writers play key roles across multiple time periods, locales, and aesthetic forms. Part V analyzes the workings of political and aesthetic censorship during the domination of Socialist Realism, and it explores poetry as a discourse of subjectivity. It includes attention to utopian/dystopian and national narratives, and ends with an account of the intelligentsia’s cultural and historical self-identification.

Biologic Factors

The Mesozoic-Cenozoic coral Order Scleractinia has been suggested to have originated or evolved (1) by direct descent from the Paleozoic Order Rugosa or (2) by the development of a skeleton in members of one of the anemone groups that probably have existed throughout Phanerozoic time. In spite of much work on the subject, advocates of the direct descent hypothesis have failed to find convincing evidence of this relationship. Critical points are:(1) Rugosan septal insertion is serial; Scleractinian insertion is cyclic; no intermediate stages have been demonstrated. Apparent intermediates are Scleractinia having bilateral cyclic insertion or teratological Rugosa.(2) There is convincing evidence that the skeletons of many Rugosa were calcitic and none are known to be or to have been aragonitic. In contrast, the skeletons of all living Scleractinia are aragonitic and there is evidence that fossil Scleractinia were aragonitic also. The mineralogic difference is almost certainly due to intrinsic biologic factors.(3) No early Triassic corals of either group are known. This fact is not compelling (by itself) but is important in connection with points 1 and 2, because, given direct descent, both changes took place during this only stage in the history of the two groups in which there are no known corals.

Abstract. Background: Self-esteem is a major contributor to risk for repeated suicide attempts. Prior research has shown that awareness of stigma is associated with reduced self-esteem among people with mental illness. No prior studies have examined the association between self-esteem and stereotype awareness among individuals with past suicide attempts. Aims: To understand the relationship between stereotype awareness and self-esteem among young adults who have and have not attempted suicide. Method: Computerized surveys were administered to college students (N = 637). Linear regression analyses were used to test associations between self-esteem and stereotype awareness, attempt history, and their interaction. Results: There was a significant stereotype awareness by attempt interaction (β = –.74, p = .006) in the regression analysis. The interaction was explained by a stronger negative association between stereotype awareness and self-esteem among individuals with past suicide attempts (β = –.50, p = .013) compared with those without attempts (β = –.09, p = .037). Conclusion: Stigma is associated with lower self-esteem within this high-functioning sample of young adults with histories of suicide attempts. Alleviating the impact of stigma at the individual (clinical) or community (public health) levels may improve self-esteem among this high-risk population, which could potentially influence subsequent suicide risk.

The first chapter of Hieroglyphic Modernisms exposes the complex history of Western misconceptions of Egyptian writing from antiquity to the present. Hieroglyphs bridge the gap between modern technologies and the ancient past, looking forward to the rise of new media and backward to the dispersal of languages in the mythical moment of the Tower of Babel. The contradictory ways in which hieroglyphs were interpreted in the West come to shape the differing ways that modernist writers and filmmakers understood the relationship between writing, film, and other new media. On the one hand, poets like Ezra Pound and film theorists like Vachel Lindsay and Sergei Eisenstein use the visual languages of China and of Egypt as a more primal or direct alternative to written words. But Freud, Proust, and the later Eisenstein conversely emphasize the phonetic qualities of Egyptian writing, its similarity to alphabetical scripts. The chapter concludes by arguing that even avant-garde invocations of hieroglyphics depend on narrative form through an examination of Hollis Frampton’s experimental film Zorns Lemma.

Opening Up

It is generally assumed that The Vampyre was published against John Polidori's will. This article brings evidence to support that he played, in fact, an active role in the publication of his tale, perhaps as a response to Frankenstein. In particular, by making use of the tools of textual criticism, it demonstrates how the ‘Extract of a Letter from Geneva’ accompanying The Vampyre in The New Monthly Magazine and in volume editions could not be written without having access to Polidori's Diary. Furthermore, it hypothesizes that the composition of The Vampyre, traditionally located in Geneva in the course of summer 1816, can be postdated to 1818, opening up new possibilities for reading the tale in the context of the relationship between Polidori, Byron, and the Shelleys.

The Relationship

A world-ecological perspective of cultural production refuses a dualist conception of nature and society – which imagines nature as an external site of static outputs  – and instead foregrounds the fact that human and extra-human natures are completely intertwined. This essay seeks to reinterpret the satirical writing of a canonical figure within the Irish literary tradition, Brian O'Nolan, in light of the energy history of Ireland, understood as co-produced by both human actors and biophysical nature. How does the energy imaginary of O'Nolan's work refract and mediate the Irish environment and the socio-ecological relations shaping the fuel supply-chains that power the Irish energy regime dominant under the Irish Free State? I discuss the relationship between peat as fuel and Brian O'Nolan's pseudonymous newspaper columns, and indicate how questions about energy regimes and ecology can lead us to read his Irish language novel An Béal Bocht [The Poor Mouth] (1941) in a new light. The moments I select and analyze from O'Nolan's output feature a kind of satire that exposes the folly of separating society from nature, by presenting an exaggerated form of the myth of nature as an infinite resource.

This volume is an interdisciplinary assessment of the relationship between religion and the FBI. We recount the history of the FBI’s engagement with multiple religious communities and with aspects of public or “civic” religion such as morality and respectability. The book presents new research to explain roughly the history of the FBI’s interaction with religion over approximately one century, from the pre-Hoover period to the post-9/11 era. Along the way, the book explores vexed issues that go beyond the particulars of the FBI’s history—the juxtaposition of “religion” and “cult,” the ways in which race can shape the public’s perceptions of religion (and vica versa), the challenges of mediating between a religious orientation and a secular one, and the role and limits of academic scholarship as a way of addressing the differing worldviews of the FBI and some of the religious communities it encounters.

Background: Serum Peanut-specific-IgE (PN-sIgE) and peanut-component-resolved-diagnostics (CRD) are often ordered simultaneously in the evaluation for peanut allergy. Results often guide the plans for peanut oral challenge. However, the clinical utility of CRD at different total PN-sIgE levels is unclear. A commonly used predefined CRD Ara h2 cutoff value in the literature predicting probability of peanut challenge outcomes is 0.35kUA/L. Objective: To examine the utility of CRD in patients with and without a history of clinical reactivity to peanut (PN). Methods: This was a retrospective chart review of 196 children with PN-sIgE and CRD testing, of which, 98 patients had a clinical history of an IgE-mediated reaction when exposed to PN and 98 did not. The Fisher's exact test was used to assess the relationship between CRD and PN-sIgE at different cutoff levels, McNemar test and Gwet’s approach (AC1 statistic) were used to examine agreement between CRD and PN-sIgE, and logistic regression was used to assess differences in the findings between patients with and without reaction history. Results: Ara h 1, 2, 3, or 9 (ARAH) levels ≤0.35 kUA/L were significantly associated with PN-sIgE levels <2 kUA/L rather than ≥2 kUA/L (p < 0.0001). When the ARAH threshold was increased to 1 kUA/L and 2 kUA/L, these thresholds were still significantly associated with PN-sIgE levels of <2, <5, and <14 kUA/L. These findings were not significantly different in patients with and without a history of clinical reactivity. Conclusion: ARAH values correlated with PN-sIgE. Regardless of clinical history, ARAH levels are unlikely to be below 0.35, 1, or 2 kUA/L if the PN-sIgE level is >2 kUA/L. Thus, if possible, practitioners should consider PN-sIgE rather than automatically ordering CRD with PN-sIgE every time. Laboratory procedures that allow automatically and reflexively adding CRD when the PN-sIgE level is ≤5 kUA/L can be helpful. However, further studies are needed in subjects with challenge-proven PN allergy.
