The identifying member is a syntactic category synonym, attributed to the attribution of the predicate to an entity that may be the first verb, a subject, and a second verb, addition. This attribute is attributed to the construction of the subject-predicate attitude as the content of predictability - the main sign of the sentence

Author(s): Veska Gyuviyska,Nikolay Tsankov / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 7/2019

The study is a socio-pedagogical reading of Ruben Gallego’s novel ‘White on Black’, an autobiographical narrative about homes for disabled children in Soviet Russia in the 1980s. Gallego is a Spanish boy, born with cerebral paralysis whose childhood is spent in institutions for disabled children in Russia. Regardless of his disability, Gallego manages to preserve his will for life and creative potential. The novel White on Black is a Booker Prize laureate in 2003 and is a discovery in Russian literature. The conceptual argumentation of the novel is in the context of postmodernism and authors such as Pierre Nora, Maurice Halbwachs, Michel Foucault. It mainly analyses the social institutions as spaces of authority. Basic ideas and concepts include P. Nora’s ‘realms of memory’, Maurice Halbwachs 'collective memory' and M. Foucault’s 'heterotopia', which allows the highlighting of new dimensions in postmodern institutions and their relation to the uses of authority. The article also offers an empirical study with students from ‘Special Pedagogy’ majors at the pedagogical departments of some Bulgarian universities. The aim is to discover the personal expression and professional reflection of students in the artistic projections of the socio-pedagogical knowledge.

Author(s): Ioan Popa-Bota / Language(s): English Issue: 14/2019

When we are talking about education, generally, we refer to a formationprocess that is speccific to humans. That, as education consists into a dialogue between persons, soit involves at least two individuals: one that is the communicator and the other one that receives themessage. But when we are talking about religious education, the factors involved in it multiply,because in this equation there are factors of divine and human nature.From the divine side, GodHimself and His Teandric Institution, the Church, which He established on earth for this verypurpose, are involved. From the human side, by virtue of teandria, the Church is involved, and withit: the family, the school and the religion teacher, as well as the pupil, that is the subject receiving theeducation. This paper aims at presenting the specificity of each of these factors and their correlation,so that the purpose of religious education is fulfilled.

An Investigation of Official Corruption in Ottoman Egypt: Processes and Documents of Ottoman Administration

Author(s): Linda Darling / Language(s): English Issue: 4/2016

The investigation in question is recorded in a series of thirty-eight register entries on a case of financial malfeasance in recently-conquered Ottoman Egypt that was investigated by officials from Ottoman Syria. This case appears in the oldest existing mühimme defteri, a register of important affairs of the Ottoman Empire, and provides detailed information about how the Ottomans governed their provinces. It lists many of the taxes and revenues collected by the Ottomans and discusses the most important treasury personnel in the province and the documents they created. It also describes how the Ottoman state worked to control those personnel even at a distance and to induce these officials to adhere to concepts of just imperial rule. The article describes the issues in the case and identifies the provincial officials involved in the investigation, the documents they were supposed to collect or create, and the procedures they were commanded to follow. The conclusion examines the implications of the case for our understanding of the place of Syria and Egypt within the wider Ottoman Empire in the sixteenth century. This episode presents an instance of the Ottoman integration of newly conquered lands in a period when records are fairly plentiful (in contrast to the conquest of Rumeli, where most of our evidence comes from chronicles written at a later date). Beyond that, this case illuminates the whole issue of how an empire operates and challenges the stereotype of general Ottoman oppression of the conquered territories.

Коварното свидетелство на Мери Ан Кларк и аферата с Йоркския херцог през 1809 г.

Author(s): Lubomir Krastev / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 4/2016

In 1809 the British public was scandalized by the affair of the Duke of York with Marry Anne Clarke. Rumors of the affair spread so widely that the story was articulated very widely in Britain for more than three months. The reputation of the Hanoverian prince was badly damaged by the testimony given forward by Mrs. Clarke. While the second son of King George III was Commander in Chief of the British Army at that time, the story was not only a public scandal, but rather a political crisis for the whole nation. News about corruption, debauchery and intrigues flooded the press, and this whole matter put the integrity of the national leaders to the challenge. Nevertheless, the outcome of the affair underwent a dramatic and unexpected turn.

Българското църковно представителство в Истанбул и въпросът за вдигане на схизмата

Author(s): Boryana Buzhashka / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 5/2019

Nowadays in Istanbul, Turkey, there is a Bulgarian colony, which was created after the Second Balkan War and the First World War. It was not related to the Bulgarians in Constantinople from the times of the Bulgarian National Revival, but through the Foundation of Bulgarian Orthodox Churches in Istanbul as established, it was their legal successor. The Foundation was also the formal owner of that part of the Bulgarian exarchal properties in Turkey which the Turkish State returned. Lifting the schism was an act of international and internal political importance. This act put an end to the use of the Exarchy as a mean to unite all the Bulgarians within the borders of a new Bulgaria according to the Treaty of San Stefano. In essence, this was a retreat from the national ideal. The conditions for lifting the schism, the closing of the Exarchal Vicegerency and the unresolved status of the Bulgarian Church Community deprived the Bulgarians in the Republic of Turkey of Bulgarian representation on church affairs and predetermined their remaining within the diocese of the Ecumenical Patriarchate. This issue has consequences even nowadays.

Author(s): Boris Vounchev,Elena Chausheva / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 5/2019

The paper proposes a critical reading of the approach to the verbal categories aspect, tense, mood and voice in the Modern Greek Language, as adopted in the textbooks and teachers’ methodological guides for the Greek Middle School (Gymnasium). The analysis of the textbooks and the methodological guides takes into consideration the following aspects: sources of theoretical framework, adoption of up-to-date theoretical insights, theses and terminology, differences in the approach to the verbal categories and use of controversial or non-conforming to the language reality theses. The main conclusions are that the contemporary linguistic approaches are incorporated in the methodological guides, while the textbooks adhere to obsolete theoretical framework and terminology, and that a number of important issues pertaining to the Modern Greek verbal system are insufficiently analyzed or not analyzed at all.

Явление лексической паронимии как лингводидактическая проблема

Author(s): Elena Stoyanova / Language(s): Russian Issue: 5/2019

The paper is devoted to the problems of lexical paronymy in the aspect of teaching Russian as a foreign language. The paper examines the verbal single-root paronymic lexemes of the Russian language and their equivalents in the Bulgarian language. The relevance of the study is due to the processes of globalization and intercultural dialogue, as well as the concomitant problems of reducing the language culture. Linguistic and didactical difficulties of paronymy and its teaching in the Bulgarian audience are due to the phenomenon of inter-linguistic homonymy. Among the system errors in the study of the Russian language, there is a mixture of paronyms as a violation of lexical normativity. We provide a generalized table of the use of paronymic verbs, which analyzes intergenerational equivalents.

Author(s): Mariyana Tsibranska-Kostova,Magdalena Abadzhieva / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 5/2019

The handwriting Maurizio da Castellazzo‘s dictionary is likely to be the first survived Bulgarian-Italian Dictionary of the times of the Bulgarian Revival. It was created by a Catholic missionary, probably in Rakovski area, in purpose of getting familiar with the flock of believers. The dictionary is valuable with its concrete parameters of the interlingual symmetry in sounds, letters, meanings, idiomatics, but just as important is the contemporary Bulgarian worldview, fixed in and by the words, the material and the spiritual culture of Bulgarians, and the ethno-cultural identity of the Bulgarian Catholics.
