A. Barkáts Artistic world of the novel The Master and Margarita

https://doi.org/10.31174/SEND-HS2021-258IX47-01 

Abstract. “The manuscripts don’t burn,” said Woland, the enigmatic Satan of Bulgakov’s novel. Bulgakov paints a suggestive picture of Moscow, the Soviet Union in the 1920s and 1930s, by means of satire, grotesque and fantasy. At all ages, it validly presents the personal offerings of historical tortures, the eternal problem of a man struggling between bounds, a caller, and an unbelieving, fluctu- ating man. The main characters in the novel are unforgettable: Woland, who is both Satan and a representative of higher justice; the Master, who became the eternal symbol of the Artist opposed to the machinery of power, and – novel in the novel – tells the story of Jesus in a peculiar way. 

Keywords: Bulgakov, Master and Margarita, the task and opportunity of artist, irreconcilable opposition, consciousness formations, realistic and untealistic planes, redemption novel

Abstract.  The  present  article  examines  the  special  characteristics  of  the  development  of  small-scale  sculpture  as  an  independent phenomenon in Lviv fine arts of the second half of the 20th century within the framework of the interpretation of a human being image, since the following problem has not been sufficiently studied in Ukrainian art criticism. In particular, the research focuses on the specific features of artistic experiments of the representatives of decorative and applied art in the field of anthropomorphic sculp- ture; traces characteristic features of conceptual and modelling solutions; identifies artistic and stylistic features and peculiarities of the representation of a human being image. The author stresses upon the role of Lviv Ceramic and Sculpture Factory that largely set trends in the development of small-scale sculpture. In addition, as based on works of famous representatives of Lviv school of decorative arts, the author identifies the variety of interpretations and wide range of modelling means as well as traces the most vivid anthropomorphic designs.   

Keywords: Lviv sculpture, artists of decorative and plastic arts, small-scale sculpture, image of a human being, anthropomorphic motif.

K. Gorzó Cultural anthropological analysis of the trial of Agnes Sampson, the first woman to be executed in Scotland on charges of witchcraft

https://doi.org/10.31174/SEND-HS2021-258IX47-05 

Abstract. This paper is a cultural anthropology study of the court documents from the trial of Agnes Sampson from the Scotland, the first officially recorded witch conviction and execution in Scotland. Upon such examination of the court documents evident cultural remnants were found of the ancient druidistic pagan religion of the Bryton tribes who originated from the Celts. The analysis yields the statement that the demise of Agnes Sampson in 1591 was due to the practices of these druid traditions. The relevance of this research is in aiding current rehabilitation trials of women, convicted, executed, and/or accused of witchcraft. The cultural anthropology methods become helpful to understand which ancient belief remnants are apparent in a certain era, and in determining which ones cause such prosecution against its followers. Agnes Sampson was obviously continuing the druid traditions, nothing points this out better than the actual charges against her. 

Keyworlds: cultural anthropology, trial, witch, Agnes Sampson, Bryton, Celts, druid, traditions.

V. D. Sherstiuk Actual problems of the non-pecuniary damages’ assessment by the European Court of Human Rights

https://doi.org/10.31174/SEND-HS2021-258IX47-06 

Abstract. The article is devoted to the awarding of non-pecuniary damages in the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) practice. The problem of research arises from the lack of criteria that the Court uses for calculating non-pecuniary damages which leads to unfair compensation for the injured party. The article examines ECHR cases and investigates how the Court has substantiated the precondition for a claim for compensation of non-pecuniary damage of a person. The grounds and circumstances which influence the amount of non-pecuniary damages are analyzed. The research proposes to define and introduce a list of criteria based on individual features of a person in recommendations on which ECHR should pay attention in non-pecuniary damages assessment to provide fair compensation to the victim which can help to create transparent mechanism for assessment in its practice. 

Keywords: non-pecuniary damage (NPd), human rights, the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR), criteria for damage assessment, compensation, just satisfaction.

K. Timofieieva P. Kulish’s epistolar contacts (based on archival sources)

https://doi.org/10.31174/SEND-HS2021-258IX47-08 

Abstract. The chosen topic is determined by an urgent necessity to look into Panteleimon Kulish’s achievements as a piece of the Ukrainian society’s history, especially in the field of humanities, with the archival science occupying an important place within. It is an important factor combining past, present and future through epistolary work. National revival in Ukrainian society is impossible without an objective reception of P. Kulish’s creative heritage. At present, the letters of famous people are put at the level with other archival documents: protocols, notes, petitions, orders, diaries, and memoirs, notes of party and state bodies. Nowadays, in general use and open access there are huge archival collections, among which one can find many unprintable handwritten materials. There- fore, through a systemic and scrupulous scientific research, we are to find out the mysterious figure of P. Kulish, full of contradic- tions and contrasts, as state the scientists who have been studying his activities and work for more than a hundred years. However, the present stage of studying P. Kulish’s activities raises a necessity of carrying out a more complete, deeper and more thorough de- velopment of documentary sources, including correspondence. The Kulish letters provide his researchers with reliable facts about the artist’s biography and work, and allow them to study and analyze in detail the cultural space of that time, that is, one way or another, represented in today’s reality, as history repeats itself. The modern researcher is attracted to P. Kulish’s personality by the infinity of handwritten material, now awaiting its publication. With the involvement of archival material, the proposed publication  considers various aspects of P. Kulish’s relationship with his surroundings, analyzes his epistolary heritage as Kulish’s correspondence is of a literary-scientific and cultural-social nature. Covering the views and ideas of P. Kulish, based on historical archival sources, the research addresses to documentary materials while working with epistolary sources, as well as introduces the writer’s correspondence into scientific circulation.  

Keywords: epistolary, P. Kulish, archival sources, documentary materials, manuscripts.

A. Litovchenko, D. Boiko, O. Nekhaienko, D. Yashkina, O. Muradyan Plasma donors in the social and information field in a pandemic

https://doi.org/10.31174/SEND-HS2021-258IX47-09 

Abstract.The article presents the results of a study of plasma donors as an agent of information impact in a pandemic situation. The key problem is the need to socially advance anti-pandemic measures in the face of poorly managed social responses to the fight against a pandemic. The analysis of the research results demonstrates a sufficiently high level of rational critical thinking of plasma donors in relation to being informed about the pandemic and combating it. It is concluded that the fixed position of plasma donors in the infor- mation space creates a stable foundation for the effective inclusion of this group in the processes of information support of anti-pandemic measures. 

Keywords: Plasma donors, information support, social reactions, anti-pandemic measures.
