О текстообразующем потенциале паремического оборота ‘тесто топором не разрубишь’ в рассказе Н. С. Лескова "Железная воля"
The article is devoted to exploring the paremic locution one cannot cut the dough with an axe as a rolled-up narrative program in Nikolai Leskov’s story “An Iron Will” (1876). In this way, different images of dough and iron become particularly important as soon as they begin to be perceived as symbolic analogues of some notable properties of national character: a German will (‘iron’) and a Russian lack of will (‘dough’). First of all, this is the pie with carrots as well as the pancakes that killed Hugo Karlovich Pectoralis, “a man of iron will”, at Safronych’s funeral. One can disclose their content only within the context of the specified paremic locution in a serial analogy German : Russian :: will : lack of will :: iron : dough. Technically, there is no valid analogy between ‘iron’ and ‘will’, ‘dough’ and ‘lack of will’, as well as the resulting “standoff” between a German will and a Russian lack of will, but in fact this is not necessary. No matter how parodoxically it may seem, but as an argument in favor of the Russian lack of will paroemia reveals the property of dough to resist to an ax; as an illustrative contribution to the status of a regrettable precedent, a “real” story, told over tea, about Hugo Karlovich Pectoralis choking to death while eating pancakes. Therefore, in Nikolai Leskov’s story the specified paremic locution operates as a sort of “text-in-the-text”, as well as its potential narrative program or its summary.
Venture capital (VC) provides financial and managerial support for new innovative ideas at the initial stages of commercialization. It has helped to find the market for many radical innovations of 20th century, including personal computer, Internet and genetic engineering.
As a part of market economy venture business was not stable from the very beginning. The periods of rapid growth alternated with deep recessions. However each time VC revived anew as the Phoenix due to its very important function in modern knowledge-based economy.
This report presents an analysis of statistical data that prove the existence of several cycles in VC dynamics in the USA and the Great Britain. The main factors of these cycles formation are discussed. The author proposes two possible scenarios of development of VC market for the first 30 years of the new 21st century. A hypothesis is put forward about the relation between VC cycle's amplitude and a phase of Kondratieff's cycle.
1. Description of the problem. Instrumental analysis makes it possible to find the arguments of adjudication on the bounders and structure of corpus delicti, its correlation to criminal and filling-up legislation. 2. Initial theses. Corpus delicti is regarded as that expressed in criminal law doctrine result of reorganization of orders of criminal law into other practically necessary form. That happens in the process of theory and practical experience accumulation. The construction of corpus delicti is transformed for practical needs, textually expressed system of features, regulated by criminal law and characterizing deeds as a crime of a definite type. Correlation of construction of corpus delicti with law and doctrine. Corpus delicti, its algorithm. Transition from law regulations to corpus delicti can be done: 1) prog-nostically; 2) within constant analysis of law; 3) in the process of law application. 3. Stages of instrumental building of corpus delicti: prognostic, doctrinal, law applicatory. Instrumental approach to corpus delicti includes within each stage: 1) based on criminal law decision of classification of corpus delicti and its borders; 2) objective description of a factual model; 3) acception of meaning correlated with legal notions and constructions; 4) choice of the construction of the corpus delicti and disposal of characteristics; 5) verification of legitimacy, necessity and adequacy of foundation. 4. Instrumental analysis of disputable questions of understanding and application of constructions of corpus delicti. A. Functions and purposes of application of construction of corpus delicti. Functions of corpus delicti: a) modeling; b) communicative; c) identificatory; d) technological. B. Contents of corpus delicti. Contents of corpus delicti as it is traditionally regarded does not correspond to indications of crime, does not characterize features of social danger; sign of danger of penalty also does go into corpus delicti. Two variants are proposed for the discussion: widening of the borders of corpus delicti by means of introduction of signs of social danger and signs, defining individualization of penalty and to limitate corpus delicti by characteristic of criminally punished act, separating it from contents of guilt and contents of social danger. C. Structure of corpus delicti. There are two problems: division of elements of crime seems to be extremely harsh and inadequate - it is expedient to include signs of special and time limits of act, causal links, crossing signs of objective and subjective sides, first of all consequences and an object of crime, into the structure of corpus delicti. Forms of committing a criminally punished act is a crime commitment in complicity, ideal system, not finished crime.
In this article we describe a system allowing companies to organize an efficient inventory management with 40 suppliers of different products. The system consists of four modules, each of which can be improved: demand planning, inventory management, procurement planning and KPI reporting. Described system was implemented in a real company, specializing on perishable products totaling over 600 SKUs. The system helped the company to increase its turnover by 7% while keeping the same level of services.
