  The authors of the article argue that contemporary cultural policy discourse is in the focus
  of attention of scientific communities, social and political organizations and government institutions.
  It represents a sort of symbolic struggle and nominations and has necessitated a
  new approach to cultural policy structuring. The article shows that this necessity is demonstrated
  by the development of cooperation between Russia and Hungary in terms of cultural
  sectors and cultural heritage. Expert communities and non-governmental organizations are
  becoming significant elements in the structure of cultural policy subjects. The association
  “For Hungarian-Russian cooperation named after Leo Tolstoy” has become such a key issue.
  The authors of this article attempt to highlight the most essential contemporary issues in
  the sphere of cultural policy in general and in relation of two separate countries – Russia and
  Hungary – through the scientific project “Hygiene of culture”.

  In 2024 we celebrate the 80th birthday of Professor Zoltán Hajnády. The articles in this issue of Slavica have been written by his colleagues to express their respect for him and his work. In addition to the international significance of Zoltán Hajnády’s research on Tolstoy, which is the main focus of his articles, the laudation introducing the series of articles also mentions a broader aspect of his work on Russian–European relations and reveals his deep personality. A representative of humanistic values, a great educator and scientist, he works for the mediation and mutual enrichment of Russian–Russian and Hungarian cultures. For this endeavour,  Hajnády was honoured with the Pushkin Medal in 2006.

  Analogy plays a significant role in problem solving, as well as in decision making, argumentation, perception, generalization, memory, creativity, invention, prediction, emotion, explanation, conceptualization, and communication. Analogy is important not only in ordinary language and common sense (where proverbs and idioms give many examples of its application) but also in science, philosophy, law, and the humanities. Still, in linguistics it causes many uncertainties. The main purpose of this work is to study and examine the principles of Natural Morphology on the historical change of Bulgarian verbs. This study is a summary of how grammatical rules and analogy, and their antithesis dissolve in the theory of Natural Morphology. The focus of the paperis the historical variation of the Bulgarian Aorist.

  This review contains a critical analysis of Angelika Molnar's new book, her monograph entitled Text, genre, word: Studies in the Russian literature of the 19^th-21^st centuries is devoted to various texts of different eras from Pushkin’s to Sorokin’s, however, the focus of the study is Molnár's favorite Russian writer, Goncharov, whose work, unfortunately, rarely attracts the attention of Western researchers. In Molnár's book, the main, clearly indicated methodological principle is discursive poetics, which works well when studying intertexts within the framework of both large and small literary and historical series. Therefore, Russian literature is considered by the researcher as a single text in which the "old" is updated by the "new". The review emphasizes the significance of the monograph, which first of all offers an up-to-date interpretationof Russian classics in the context of modernity. The book will be of interest both to a professional researcher of Russian literature and to everyone who is interested in Russian culture and the Russian worldview.

A brief outline of Russian textbooks on corpus linguistics is also provided with special focus on Shuneyko’s latest work.
