Over the historical cinema
The paper deals with philosophical comprehension of representation of professional historical knowledge. The article includes analysis of contemporary historical cinema’s condition, problem of its definition and its isolation from the principal historical science. Articles and statements of many philosophers and cinema researchers are analyzed in the paper. Following this analysis, author makes the main conclusions about the problem of conflict between historical cinema and history as a science. Author examines the field of public history and its place in the relations between historical cinema and science. Author considers that public history is the way of conflict resolution. The reason is impossibility of recreating the past with perfect authenticity up to minor, insignificant things. In the same way, reconstructing of the past to product with any content is impossible, according to author’s opinion.Статья посвящена философскому осмыслению репрезентации профессионального исторического знания. Дан анализ состояния современного исторического кино, озвучены проблемы определения и существования его в отрыве от основной исторической науки. Проанализированы статьи и высказывания многих философов и исследователей кино, на основе которых сделаны главные выводы по проблеме конфликта между историческим кино и историей как наукой. Рассмотрены область public history и ее место в отношениях между историческими кинополотнами и наукой. Высказывается мысль о том, что публичная история есть путь, способный привести к разрешению конфликта, поскольку воссоздать прошлое с полной достоверностью вплоть до мелочей — задача невозможная, как невозможно и реконструировать из него материал какого угодно содержания
Модификации заглавий в автопереводе (на материале сборника В. Набокова «Возвращение Чорба»)
The article is devoted to study of the self-translation of stories' titles by Vladimir Nabokov from the point of view of structural and semantic changes, stipulated by use of semantic reduction, semantic specification, compensation and modulation. The authors study the literary text on the grounds of compare-and-contrast, structural, intertextual and cognitive methods of research. The main subject of research are the stories from the collection "The return of Chorb". The bilingual writer often deviates in translation from a proclaimed principle of "literal translation" what is stipulated by Nabokov’s desire to specify or to emphasize the semantics of the title. The article also explains the reasons why certain stories have not been translated by the author into English.Статья посвящена изучению автоперевода заглавий рассказов Владимира Набокова с точки зрения структурных и семантических модификаций, обусловленных использованием приемов семантической редукции, смысловой конкретизации, компенсации, модуляции. Авторы работы обращаются к сравнительно-сопоставительному, структурному, интертекстуальному и когнитивному методам исследования художественного текста. Основным материалом исследования стали рассказы из сборника «Возвращение Чорба», при переводе которых писатель-билингв часто отклоняется от манифестированного принципа «буквальности», что обусловлено стремлением В. Набокова конкретизировать или акцентировать семантику заглавий. В статье также объясняются причины, по которым некоторые рассказы не были переведены автором на английский язык
Opportunities and clinical significance of preoperative diagnosis of infiltrative endometriosis
Aim. To optimize preoperative diagnosis of infiltrative forms of genital endometriosis.
Materials and methods. We analyzed the results of the preoperative examination and surgical treatment of 667 patients from 22 to 49 years old (31.4 [27.3; 34.2]) with external endometriosis presented with pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia (n=580), and primary or secondary infertility (n=215). The duration of the disease ranged from 1 to 16 years. Seventy-eight (11.69%) patients had a history of surgery for external endometriosis. The serum concentration of the CA-125 tumor marker was measured by immunochemiluminescence assay. Colonoscopy was performed in 655 cases, and cystoscopy in 66 cases. In addition, pelvic ultrasound was performed for all patients. Pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed with an intravenous bolus injection of a contrast agent.
Results. Patients with endometrioid ovarian cysts (n=564) and "minor" forms of endometriosis (n=44) predominated. Endometrioid infiltrates occurred in 59 (8.84%) patients. In the group of patients with infiltrates, 18.64% had a history of surgery for endometriosis; 5.7% had a recurrence. Patients with retrocervical endometriosis and endometriosis of uterosacral ligaments predominated among females with infiltrative forms. No statistically significant differences in CA-125 concentration between patients with and without infiltrates were observed. The infiltrate was revealed, and its topography was described in 49 (83.05%) patients using ultrasound and 56 (94.81%) patients using MRI. All patients with dysuria had ultrasound, MRI, colonoscopy and cystoscopy.
Conclusion. The combined use of pelvic ultrasound and MRI provides high accuracy in diagnosing infiltrative endometriosis
КОМПЛЕКС ДЛЯ ЛОКАЛЬНОЙ ИОННОЙ ИМПЛАНТАЦИИ И ЭЛЕМЕНТНОГО МИКРОАНАЛИЗА С ВЫВОДОМ ИОННОГО ПУЧКА В АТМОСФЕРУ
A measuring system for local elemental analysis is constructed on the basis of an ion accelerator AN-2500. It comprises a device of an in-air ion beam extraction through a tapered glass capillary and a PIXE spectrometer. The angular dependence of the proton beam possessing the transmission energy of 150-250 keV through the tapered capillary with the output diameters of 5 and 10μm is determined. The transit of protons through the capillary is found to be in threshold character and to be determined by the charging rate of its internal surface. The characteristics of current and energy of the ion beam extracted into the atmosphere are analyzed. It is found that the value of output current can be varied from 0.5 to 3 nA, while the ion energy is almost equal to the initial beam energy. The PIXE energy spectra of various materials are measured at the atmospheric pressure. It is found that the output beam intensity is enough for an accurate determination of the elemental composition of the samples under analysis.На базе ионного ускорителя -2500 изготовлен и апробирован измерительный комплекс для локального элементного анализа, состоящий из устройства вывода ионного пучка в атмосферу на основе конического стеклянного капилляра и спектрометра характеристического рентгеновского излучения (ХРИ). Измерены угловые зависимости коэффициента пропускания протонного пучка с энергией 150–250 кэВ через конусообразные капилляры с выходными диаметрами 5 и 10 мкм. Показано, что прохождение протонов через капилляр носит пороговый характер и определяется степенью зарядки его внутренней поверхности. Исследованы токовые и энергетические характеристики ионного пучка, выведенного в атмосферу. Показано, что величина выходного тока может изменяться от 0,5 до 3 нА и энергия ионов практически равна энергии исходного пучка. Измерены энергетические спектры ХРИ при атмосферном давлении от различных материалов, включая и костную ткань. Показано, что интенсивности выходного пучка достаточно для достоверного определения элементного состава исследуемых образцов
The Abundance of Pink-Pigmented Facultative Methylotrophs in the Root Zone of Plant Species in Invaded Coastal Sage Scrub Habitat
Pink-pigmented facultative methylotrophic bacteria (PPFMs) are associated with the roots, leaves and seeds of most terrestrial plants and utilize volatile C1 compounds such as methanol generated by growing plants during cell division. PPFMs have been well studied in agricultural systems due to their importance in crop seed germination, yield, pathogen resistance and drought stress tolerance. In contrast, little is known about the PPFM abundance and diversity in natural ecosystems, let alone their interactions with non-crop species. Here we surveyed PPFM abundance in the root zone soil of 5 native and 5 invasive plant species along ten invasion gradients in Southern California coastal sage scrub habitat. PPFMs were present in every soil sample and ranged in abundance from 102 to 105 CFU/g dry soil. This abundance varied significantly among plant species. PPFM abundance was 50% higher in the root zones of annual or biennial species (many invasives) than perennial species (all natives). Further, PPFM abundance appears to be influenced by the plant community beyond the root zone; pure stands of either native or invasive species had 50% more PPFMs than mixed species stands. In sum, PPFM abundance in the root zone of coastal sage scrub plants is influenced by both the immediate and surrounding plant communities. The results also suggest that PPFMs are a good target for future work on plant-microorganism feedbacks in natural ecosystems
