Kostenko A.P. The Concept of Irony in the Study of Literature
Abstract. With the lapse of time the interpretation of irony and its technique has changed and complicated greatly. Moreover, an irony – it is not only a stylistic device, but a method of mentality, state of spirit, a way of thinking that appeared as a general tenden- cy of our time. Irony as the equal concept of the comic is singled out. It is a reflection of implicit meaning, which differs from or is contrary to overt meaning, by verbal means (verbal irony) or situations of the story (situational irony). Verbal irony includes two types: situational irony – overt type of irony realized in micro- and macro-context, and associative irony, which is realized mostly in mega-context. This understanding of irony allowed widening the scope of analysis of linguistic means from lexical level to syntactic and textual levels. An irony as hidden parody expressed by inverse text lets see what an author wants to tell indeed. Existing approach to an irony has led and philologists and linguists to necessity to divide two concepts: an irony as stylistic device and an irony as an ironical meaning created by different means of language.

Zakaliuzhnyy L. "Three Acts in Four Paintings" by V. Durnenkov as an Ecphrastic Play
Abstract. The article studies genre originality of V. Durnenkov’s play “Three Acts in Four Paintings” in the context of intermediality of the contemporary Russian dramaturgy as in works of I. Vyrypayev, E. Grishkovets, M. Kurochkin, N. Kolyada, P. Pryazhko, V. Sigarev and M. Ugarov. There is a general trend for the “New Drama” to appeal to the visual art, music, cinema, TV and modern media. Ekphrasis is the root principle of the play being studied, which is the descriptive verbal interpretation of works of art. It serves as a keystone function for creation of the genre and plot as the story of “Three Acts in Four Paintings” is based on four paintings of a fictional artist from the Wanderers group A. Brashinskiy – “Verse”, “Young Wranglers”, “Live Some”, “Byways”. The playwright uses the tripling method – first of all he describes the paintings in the preface, second of all he talks about them in stage directions before each act and finally he unfolds them into three acts of the play. The Method used by the author becomes genre-forming one, which allows “Three Acts in Four Paintings” to be viewed upon as the original genre modification of the contemporary Russian dramaturgy – “Ecphrastic Play”.

Krylov V.S. Computer paralinguistics as a basis the acquisition of special skills in the field of information technology
Abstract. Information technology (IT) was transformed into an information society. Formed a global infrastructure that provides advanced services due to communication between people and even between things physical or virtual. A wide range of researchers had the opportunity to use previously inaccessible tools and technologies for experimental and theoretical studies. IT methods for solving the problems of the organization and functioning of the global information structure – are a source of models for studying the interaction of prevailing in the evolution of verbal (speech) and nonverbal communication channels. Based on these technologies there are new integrated research directions. For example, computer paralinguistics offers models, which can significantly improve the system analysis and processing of natural speech and texts, to improve search engines. Inclusion in the learning process advances of computational linguistics, allows future specialist to acquire the skills to compete successfully in the labor market.
