Abstract: The article is devoted to nonce words that serve as expressive means in a literary text. The subject of the research is nonce words used in Dina Rubina's novel 'Kordova's White Dove'. The author of the article examines word-building patterns that form the basis of nonce words in the novel and analyzes the particular way how evaluativity of nonce words used by Dina Rubina is expressed. Despite the fact that there is a great number of researches devoted to various aspects of nonce words nowadays, it can be affirmed that a nonce word has never been described linguistically as a phenomenon reflecting dynamics of the language. Moreover, nonce words can be of interest to researchers as a conceptual category closely related to particularities of perceiving and understanding the message of a literary text. Structural-semantic analysis of nonce words was carried out using the comparative method because comparison with standard forms allows to define the conceptual content of the author's individual lexical units found in the text. The author has used the continuous sampling method to collect data. The scientific novelty of the research is caused by the fact that for the first time in the academic literature the author carries out a structural-semantic analysis of nonce words found in Dina Rubina's novel 'Kordova's White Dove' by the continuous sampling method. The main conclusion of the research is that in Dina Rubina's novel 'Kordova's White Dove' nonce words are an efficient expressive mean and convey particularities of the writer's individual style. The majority of nonce words do not only express a positive or negative attitude but also demonstrate specific features of the characters' speech. Most frequently the writer uses lexical units created as a combination of various usual word stems and affixes in accordance with, or slightly contradictory to, established word-building patterns.

Abstract: The subject of the research is a specific philosophical method of human biography analysis presented by the French philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre in his philosophical treatise 'Being and Nothingness'. Within the framework of the research existential psychoanalysis is being viewed as the method of modern philosophical anthropology and an alternative to existing psychoanalytical, psychological, symbolic, linguistic, socio-historical and other techniques of analysis of human reality. The main target of the research is to demonstrate the key features, the scope of application and heuristic potential of this method as well as the fundamental differences between this method and Sigmund Freud's classical psychoanalysis. In the course of research Gasilin carries out a comparative analysis of Jean-Paul Sartre's existential psychoanalysis and Sigmund Freud's classical psychoanalysis. He defines their common features and differences and analyzes the key concepts of Sartre's existential psychoanalysis such as the other, being-for-others, fundamental project, bad faith, non-thetic consciousness, etc. The result of the research is the strict differentiation between potential scopes of classical and existential psychoanalysis. The latter is absolutely inapplicable as the psychotherapeutic method and cn be viewed only as a specific method of biographical analysis as well as a tool for literary analysis. The fact that special features of Sartre's approach to biographical analysis are very little studied by Russian researchers make the present research especially important for Russian philosophical anthropology.

Abstract: The article is devoted to the phenomenon of Daniil Andreev, a genius Russian poet, writer and philosopher. Andreev’s creative works are a significant yet unique phenomenon in the Russian culture. On the one hand, Daniil Andreev continued the tradition of the Silver Age. On the other hand, he discovered new paths of the development of philosophy and culture and offered new and sometimes unexpected ideas. His creative works were born at the confluence of art, philosophy and religion. His works had the element of research, too. Andreev introduced his own concept of history and used that concept for analyzing historical process, first of all, in respect of the Russian reality. However, it is not so easy to understand Andreev’s views because his works are usually based on the profound and versatile spiritual experience of the poet. Unfortunately, modern science does not have the methods to clarify the nature of the poet’s experience but in the course of personal ‘vivification’ we can understand the motives that moved the poet. Many things that Daniil Andreev touched upon in his works are still rather unknown and unfamiliar for the majority of people. However, this does not mean at all that the poet just made it up for certain purposes. Such unfamiliarity makes his works especially interesting and attracts attention to Daniil Andreev’s heritage. Daniil Andreev managed to combine the independence and the freedom of the thought with the unconditional faith and true religiosity.
