Since the earliest monuments of the 11th century, it has been clearly remarked in Ukrainian art, both in mosaics and certain icons. Over the centuries, the artistic language has changed and the light acquired a different manner of realisation. It became particularly evident in the monuments of sacral art of mature baroque, which was also connected with the development of theological and scholastic scholarship in Kyiv. Then, icon painters have found some new ways of depicting divine light, rendered by applying different artistic means.","PeriodicalId":37287,"journal":{"name":"Anastasis","volume":"124 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88096169","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Considerations on the translation are of interest to any Translation Studies scholar, Mărculescu complaining about the poor quality of various ‘sub-poems’ previously rendered into Romanian in an anthology. Unamuno’s Spanish is considered a difficult one and that of the poem written in ten years makes no exception. Apart from the problems that the translation of poetry raises, be they ‘prosodic, semantic or syntactic’, the Spanish writer’s text, a strong opponent of ‘poetic artifice’, “is enriched by many rhetorical and stylistic devices: a lexis of regionalisms from Salamanca, a syntax arguing for the distortions of the hyperbaton and gains in expression, a prosody in which the hendecasyllabic is freely developed, in enjambments and unexpected phonetic associations (rhymes and interior assonances), a construction which could be labelled as ‘hypertextual’ considering the hundreds of marginal references to biblical texts that are an integrating part to the poem (despite Unamuno’s claim that they were added for ignorant people), hence the multidimensional space of reference that we need to","PeriodicalId":37287,"journal":{"name":"Anastasis","volume":"42 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91362575","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Shahsevan nomads are composed of different tribes, such as Ajirlu, Moghanlu, Giglu, Qaralar Meshgini etc. Verneh, as a type of carpet, Maffrash or means of carrying household furniture, were mainly woven by nomads and some villagers in the settlement of Shahsevan nomads in Azerbaijan and some surrounding areas, such as Pars Abad, Germi and Meshgin Shahr counties of Ardabil province, and Ahar and Kaleybar counties of East Azerbaijan province. This handicraft has both the simplicity of the rug (Kilim) style and the elegance and beauty of the carpet. The lack of sufficient information in this field has led to a close study of some of these motifs related to Verneh. Therefore, one of the most important objectives of the research is to introduce motifs, concepts and animal symbols hidden in Verneh, in order to expand knowledge about the artistic products of this region and examine the impact of nomadic life conditions on the nature of their products in these areas. The research method is applied in terms of nature and purpose and its findings were first done as field research. Then, the samples from the studies were matched with the general information and eventually examined. The results of this study show that the animal motifs created in verneh tell the truth about the material and social life of weavers and show a valuable collection in their life. Verneh’s paintings and motifs depict the nomadic way of life, the animal-dependent life in direct connection with nature, the adherence to the customs of the ancestors and the beliefs of these people. Animal motifs are a symbol of nomadic life, related to nomadic livestock.","PeriodicalId":37287,"journal":{"name":"Anastasis","volume":"67 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74609400","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
