Soviet Union

What is an anecdote, which easily turns the impossible into the desired, relative to the absolute, top to bottom, in the ordinary fantastic, but not to create new hierarchies and myths, and to cast doubt exist? The answer to this question is easy and difficult at the same time. Let's try to understand. At first glance, anecdote – a simple, often primitive short story of everyday life, on the other hand – the subject of Anecdote refuses to turn facts into values, certainly not "appreciate" the object of his story, as narrated neobhodimoimeet some tsennostiimeet some tsennostiigra voobrazheniyaigra imagination. The main task of a joke – laughter and a great pleasure, which he calls, rather than truth itself. Laughter for a joke – it's his right to a future life. Other rights he does not. The researchers argue that modern jokes historically originated as stories about the funny side of life of the great and famous people.

Anecdote constantly calls his heroes from ordinary people, deprives them of their height, put in place, ie Descends from heaven to earth. Even The gods themselves have lost their status, once in modern anecdote. Heaven and hell have become a common site of action of anecdotes. Anecdote and not think to revive the Gods. God jokes – it's a toy, helping to invent new plots joke. Or label with which the world had grown thematised jokes.

Not surprisingly, the Soviet Union (the main source of jokes – Odessa – was then the Soviet city) polzovalsya popular political anecdote services has been limited by fear of arrest and long detention camp, but the jokes still were written and told by the ear the most loyal friends. It is important to note the presence of a certain type of jokes containing signs of hidden envy of our time – it's jokes, which mocked the "new Russian". It is a sign of social antagonisms, dislike the "new rich". One of the motives of this feeling is probably the envy of the rich life the other, although one should not forget that satirizes social stratum was grateful material for jokes. Further, as a response to the numerous beauty contests, appeared and were actively picked up jokes about blondes, although it is clear that hair color does not affect intelligence. Laughter is also possible in the field beyond a certain morality. Thus, the object of humor in the jokes of our new common is violence or innocent savagery that occurs from a misunderstanding of the moral values imposed on the model of perception, which is torn away by ridicule. The point here is rather in the way of submission and mechanism of action of the story. Absurd and cruel fun of modern anecdote including cases that for a "romantic" are absolutely ridiculous. And there is seen a tendency to ridicule totalization – is absolutely ridiculous, and all around trying to find a calls and asks for nothing. Anecdote is free of any kind whatsoever regulations. The one who receives it, he promises clean, fun game. And this is the main therapeutic function of the anecdote. It removes the fear of the world does not brings people together, removes the alienation between them, preserving their autonomy and independence. Wise parable peculiar anecdotes. It is no coincidence some of the formulas of the jokes went over to the aphorisms and sayings,

Russian Film

Saw the film "Brest Fortress". Nothing of the sort not seen since Soviet times, probably 20 years old how. From domestic manufacturers – in particular. This is a very Soviet film in the best sense of the word. At the same time it very contemporary film in terms of technical – all blows up and Babakhan no worse than Hollywood blockbusters, special effects at the proper level. You may want to visit best bars in New York to increase your knowledge. The film – like an electric shock, especially given the variety of radio, film and TV mud, whose purpose – make a muck of native history, erase the memory of the people of the exploits of his ancestors who fought in that terrible war. And also – do people flock of stupid, blind sheep, rejoicing own stupidity and sucking the popcorn in movie theaters. And bring the people of this state, zombies can only remind him of his history, past, his roots, his ancestors and their victories.

That is awakened in him a sense of patriotism and calling respect for oneself and one's past. Advertising, by the way, did not see any anywhere. Many cinemas are hanging posters and other delightful Megamind stultify stupid, but advertising the film "Brest Fortress" something not seen. But all well, glad that finally appeared on the big screen our movie about our history, that the actors on the screen they say in Russian in the original, that this film is not about the next division of money and power. That the main characters – are not bandits but oligarchs, but ordinary Soviet people, whose courage has no boundaries.

Rail Transport In Argentina

If we agree that culture is: everything the man does, creates or complies, we can affirm that argentina’s culture is everything people did, made, created, created, conformed and comprise, within the limits of our territory. In this vital fluence argentina, we believe that there is a place for the railway, from that some visionaries, in the middle of the last century, believed that it had to incorporate the train as a tool for progress, and put into effect a 30 August 1857. Although it is patently obvious, the development of the railroad, could not escape the ups and downs of our eventful history, nor can escape our present and our future, even as complex as the past preceding it. National and planetary events influenced on the railway, and this in his work, made its contribution to the Argentine becoming. Much has been written or researched on the railways in the country. And much of what was said has formulated it in controversial contexts. To study the topic since the beginning of the Decade of the seventies, it seems to us display different points of approaches to the issue. Not without clarifying that the enunciation order does not indicate any precedence.

Among these approaches are: eminently ideological type, type entrepreneur, technical, aesthetic types and Union types. Since the schemes often leave large segments of the reality outside, worth clarifying that these approaches are often intermixed in the course of events. Only through careful reading and/or observation, the subtle nuances can be noted. In addition, our experiences and studies, suggest us that there is a marked difference in perceptions of those who are linked to the railway work and those who think outside the same. And the remarkable thing is the divorce between the views ordinary people saved (particularly the most veteran) and those who think, influenced by the literature or media. More cultural phenomena, not born instantly, but they are developed over time, spanning several generations.

History Of Florence

When Florence was just beginning to find its independence in the 11th century, urban merchants formed a Societas Mercatorun, a sort of guild or fraternity, many of whose members in comne Florence (the ruling council of the city which was founded in 1115). With Societas time was replaced by Arte di Calimana, universal guild, which included most of the merchants and artisans. As the division was formed seven major occupations of large guilds. In 1289 Florence was founded 14 small guilds, which covered the mid-level craftsmen. Members of these guilds actually ruled Florence during the next 400 years. The elective system was organized as follows. Leaflets with the names of the selected members of the guild, which, according to guild members were able to administrative management, were placed in eight leather pouches, stored in the church of Santa Croce. Then, from these bags was pulled out at random nine leaflets with the names: six of the large number of guilds, two of the small number of guilds, and one for the post of leader or gonfaloniere.

These elected representatives, called Priors, formed the government, or the Signoria. It government functioned for a short period – two months. This period has been established in order to avoid corruption and usurpation of power. Power was limited to the various committees of the Signoria. It also takes into account opinion of an independent judge, who was named Podesta of Florence. This judge is usually invited from out of town and was an arbitrator in dispute resolution. In times of acute crises Signoria convene parliament or assembly, which consisted of all males under the age of 14 years. However, this system was also influenced. In practice, political groups or individual influential personality arranged matters so that only pleasing their candidates were elected to important administrative positions.
