Чужак на фронтире (или фронтир как место производства и обитания Чужака)
Новое литературное обозрение. 2025. № 3(193). С. 113–125.
The article discusses ‘frontier’ as a concept and as a social phenomenon. The definition of ‘frontier’ distinguishes it from ‘border’, highlights its connection with social change (in its spatial dimension), and underlines its dynamic character and, consequently — its uncertainty. The stranger (pioneer, marginal man, frontiersman) is the driver of the frontier as a special social form. Emerging from classical studies of the frontier, it appears as a peculiar ‘cultural pattern/invariant’, marked by the paradoxical consolidation of cultural conflict.

Previous EEG studies demonstrated ample evidence for a major influence of morphological regularity on inflectional processing. However, regularity effects may be attributed to different properties of inflectional classes: to type frequency, to productivity, or to defaultness (assumed only in some models). In many languages, these factors cannot be teased apart, but it is possible in ...

Действие этих факторов прослеживается в следующих аспектах: образование связного пространства из независимых друг от друга мест, зеркальная симметрия «нашего» ...
