This research is set in the framework of sociolinguistics and employs the Multimodal Critical Discourse Analysis. The article contains the contrastive analysis of British and American political cartoons that are viewed as multimodal texts embedded in social and cultural landscapes. To shape their messages the authors employ verbal, iconic, graphical and colour codes which interact with each other and broad contexts building intersemiotic and intertextual ties. So far these aspects haven’t been studied in regard to different variants of one and the same language. The present research aims to fill this gap in modern scholarship. The sample includes 150 British and 150 American political cartoons published by The Guardian and US Today in 2020–2021. The analysis of British and American cartoons reveals that their authors tend to use similar resources to make the cartoons appealing, such as grotesque, visual metaphor, bisociation and periphrasis. The difference lies in their employment of the graphical mode. British cartoonists use it to express different prosodic features, to allude to some musical context, which makes British cartoons more polyphonic than American ones. The research also revealed marked differences in sources of intertextuality that encompass national symbols, historical background, symbols of power. However, both British and American cartoons tend to draw on similar elements of world cultural heritage, using Bible as a prior text.

The connection of the poetic form with the content is investigated. The free verse, developed by W. Whitman in the second half of the 19th century, took root in the USSR with difficulty. In modern Russian poetry, the free verse, while preserving the aura of Western poetic culture, often combines gender and political meanings, broadcasting ...

Unlike many other Turkic languages, Balkar normally demonstrates obligatory subject-verb
number agreement in finite clauses with 3rd person subjects: when a subject is plural-marked,
so is the verb. However, there are cases when the subject is not overtly plural-marked, but the
verb can be. We argue for an account where such facts are not reduced to any form ...

The determination of new words and meanings is a key issue in lexical history studies. However,
common reliance on identifying “the earliest examples” can be challenged by textual complexity and subjective
disagreements. Focusing on the emergence of the FAST meaning of kuai (快), this study proposes criteria for
identifying new meanings from the perspective of the lexical system. ...

The article examines Old Russian anthroponyms with the suffix -ec-, originally conveying the meaning ‘less than X’. A diachronic corpus study of
11th–17th-century texts reveals that while this suffix lacked inherent pejorative
connotations in Old Russian sources, contextual (adherent) pejoration is clearly
observable. For pre-15th-century chronicles, two primary usage patterns are
identified—1) characters with explicit negative evaluation, and 2) ...

The story of the Tower of Babel (Gen 11:1-9) is one of the key episodes in the narratives of the Book of Genesis. In modern scholarship, various—often sharply divergent—datings of this pericope are proposed, as well as different interpretations of its place in the picture of the formation of the biblical text that was put ...

Like other narratives in the Book of Genesis, the story of Cain and Abel (Gen 4:1–16) has been studied and commented upon for more than two millennia.

Over the past five years, several monumental commentaries on Genesis 1–11 have been published, offering new—and sometimes mutually ...

nouns and reports the results of corpus and experimental studies. In some languages,
including Shughni, the marking of plural nouns is not compulsory. Many
factors such as animacy, referentiality, morphological and semantic properties,

This book is a metaphysical inquiry into the nature and origin of the manifold. Taking Schelling’s Erlangen lectures of 1820–1821 as its point of departure and hermeneutic horizon, it develops an interpretation of Nomos that transcends its political, juridical, and social determinations. Nomos thereby emerges as the ontological principle of an infinite, variegated multiplicity of ...

Новая книга Д. Файзова пронизана голосами других поэтов. Речь не о расхожей постмодернистской центонности. Это микроинтертекстуальность на уровне конкретных слов и приемов, коллаж осколков чужих голосов, однако таких осколков, которые сохраняют способность отсылать к целому и к тому же вписаны — вклеены на манер аппликации — в узнаваемую интонацию самого поэта.
