Using interdisciplinary methods, present paper touches the case of Armenian monodic music. Through analysis of song types （concerning labour, funeral, wedding, belief, worship, magic, mythology, epic, and dance）, music representatives, music performance places, and musical instruments, an attempt is made to consider the phenomenon within certain temporal borders. It turns out that the folk and folk-professional realistic music is simple and static in its essence and includes the invariant component of local culture, going back to the period of formation of early farming communities. Meanwhile with emerging social complexity since the Bronze Age, new and various forms of musical performance come to existence.展开更多

In Rabelais and His Worm （1984） and Problems of Dostoevsky＇s Poetics （1987）, Bakhtin has shown how Rabelais＇ and Dostoevsky＇s vision of the world is turned to the artistic way of seeing. The author of this paper has studied a novel and its connection to a writer＇s world view by using the theory of Bakhtin. The purpose of this paper is to show how the author has used Bakhtin＇s ideas and perspectives in her study. The subject of the author＇s doctoral dissertation is Finnish author Algot Untola （1868-1918）, who published whole his ambiguous production by using pen names. Main research data are Untola＇s early works which include novels and newspaper articles that are written in the years 1906-1909. The research problem has been whether Untola＇s first novel Harhama （1909） carnivalized literature or not. The study has revealed that Untola＇s carnivalesque writings opposed the Finnish nationalist official culture. In previous study it has not been seen, because has not been taken into account his world view and its close relationship with the folk＇s unofficial laughing culture.展开更多
