Radiation transform models such as PROSAIL are widely used for crop canopy reflectance simulation and biophysical parameter inversion. The PROSAIL model basically assumes that the canopy is turbid homogenous media with a bare soil background. However, the canopy structure changes when crop growth stages develop, which is more or less a departure from this assumption. In addition, a paddy rice field is inundated most of the time with flooded soil background. In this study, field-scale paddy rice leaf area index (LAI), leaf cholorphyll content (LCC), and canopy chlorophyll content (CCC) were retrieved from unmanned-aerial-vehicle-based hyperspectral images by the PROSAIL radiation transform model using a lookup table (LUT) strategy, with a special focus on the effects of growth-stage development and soil-background signature selection. Results show that involving flooded soil reflectance as background reflectance for PROSAIL could improve estimation accuracy. When using a LUT with the flooded soil reflectance signature (LUTflooded) the coefficients of determination (R2) between observed and estimation variables are 0.70, 0.11, and 0.79 for LAI, LCC, and CCC, respectively, for the entire growing season (from tillering to heading growth stages), and the corresponding mean absolute errors (MAEs) are 21.87%, 16.27%, and 12.52%. For LAI and LCC, high model bias mainly occurred in tillering growth stages. There is an obvious overestimation of LAI and underestimation of LCC for in the tillering growth stage. The estimation accuracy of CCC is relatively consistent from tillering to heading growth stages.

Leaf angle is a critical structural parameter for retrieving canopy leaf area index (LAI) using the PROSAIL model. However, the traditional method using default leaf angle distribution in the PROSAIL model does not capture the phenological dynamics of canopy growth. This study presents a LAI retrieval method for corn canopies using PROSAIL model with leaf angle distribution functions referred from terrestrial laser scanning points at four phenological stages during the growing season. Specifically, four inferred maximum-probability leaf angles were used in the Campbell ellipsoid leaf angle distribution function of PROSAIL. A Lookup table (LUT) is generated by running the PROSAIL model with inferred leaf angles, and the cost function is minimized to retrieve LAI. The results show that the leaf angle distribution functions are different for the corn plants at different phenological growing stages, and the incorporation of derived specific corn leaf angle distribution functions distribute the improvement of LAI retrieval using the PROSAIL model. This validation is done using in-situ LAI measurements and MODIS LAI in Baoding City, Hebei Province, China, and compared with the LAI retrieved using default leaf angle distribution function at the same time. The root-mean-square error (RMSE) between the retrieved LAI on 4 September 2014, using the modified PROSAIL model and the in-situ measured LAI was 0.31 m2/m2, with a strong and significant correlation (R2 = 0.82, residual range = 0 to 0.6 m2/m2, p < 0.001). Comparatively, the accuracy of LAI retrieved results using default leaf angle distribution is lower, the RMSE of which is 0.56 with R2 = 0.76 and residual range = 0 to 1.0 m2/m2, p < 0.001. This validation reveals that the introduction of inferred leaf angle distributions from TLS data points can improve the LAI retrieval accuracy using the PROSAIL model. Moreover, the comparations of LAI retrieval results on 10 July, 26 July, 19 August and 4 September with default and inferred corn leaf angle distribution functions are all compared with MODIS LAI products in the whole study area. This validation reveals that improvement exists in a wide spatial range and temporal range. All the comparisons demonstrate the potential of the modified PROSAIL model for retrieving corn canopy LAI from Landsat imagery by inferring leaf orientation from terrestrial laser scanning data.

The 3-D Radiative Transfer Model (RTM) FLIGHT can represent scattering in open forest or savannas featuring underlying bare soils. However, FLIGHT might not be suitable for multilayered tree-grass ecosystems (TGE), where a grass understory can dominate the reflectance factor (RF) dynamics due to strong seasonal variability and low tree fractional cover. To address this issue, we coupled FLIGHT with the 1-D RTM PROSAIL. The model is evaluated against spectral observations of proximal and remote sensing sensors: the ASD Fieldspec® 3 spectroradiometer, the Airborne Spectrographic Imager (CASI) and the MultiSpectral Instrument (MSI) onboard Sentinel-2. We tested the capability of both PROSAIL and PROSAIL+FLIGHT to reproduce the variability of different phenological stages determined by 16-year time series analysis of Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer-Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (MODIS-NDVI). Then, we combined concomitant observations of biophysical variables and RF to test the capability of the models to reproduce observed RF. PROSAIL achieved a Relative Root Mean Square Error (RRMSE) between 6% to 32% at proximal sensing scale. PROSAIL+FLIGHT RRMSE ranged between 7% to 31% at remote sensing scales. RRMSE increased in periods when large fractions of standing dead material mixed with emergent green grasses —especially in autumn—; suggesting that the model cannot represent the spectral features of this material. PROSAIL+FLIGHT improves RF simulation especially in summer and at mid-high view angles.

This article presents findings from a rhetorical analysis of job advertisements posted by the fastest growing companies in the United States ( Inc. 5000 rankings). The analysis suggests that companies rely on standard rhetorical figures and share similar rhetorical visions of novelty that likely effect their organizational culture, paradoxically make them homogeneous, and potentially oversell positions that require prosaic job duties. Suggestions to authors of job advertisements include writing with fewer clichés and metaphors, since they tend to reify ageist stereotypes. Suggestions for job seekers include doing rhetorical analyses of advertisements and writing résumés so they comply with job advertisements’ creative rhetorical styles.

Prior work suggests that feeling small relative to nature (Nature-Self Size; NSS) and inclusion of nature in the self-concept (INS) are both associated with more pro-environmental attitudes. The present experiment asked whether exposure to stimuli eliciting awe—an emotion often evoked by extraordinary panoramic views of nature, characterized by subjective experience of “small self” and modulation of reliance on stored concepts—leads to increased NSS and/or INS, thereby promoting pro-environmental policy attitudes. Participants in this online experiment were randomly assigned to view photographs of extraordinary panoramic nature scenes, prosaic nature images, desirable foods, or neutral scenes before completing measures of INS, NSS, and support for environmental conservation policies. Analyses revealed that INS significantly mediated the effects of exposure to panoramic nature scenes (versus a neutral control) on pro-environmental policy attitudes; however, the same effect was observed for the prosaic nature and tasty foods images. Results suggest that exposure to awe-eliciting stimuli can promote pro-environmental attitudes via modulation of the self-concept, but this may be due to pleasant affect rather than awe per se. Future research with real-life stimuli and longitudinal designs is needed to further examine the lasting effects of awe and other emotional states on the self-concept and associated environmental attitudes.

The discussion about the quality of Environmental Sanitation (ES) services is currently highlighted because it is directly linked to the population's quality of life. Assessing the scope of SA services has become an important tool for the management of municipalities and states, as it allows the adaptation to the reality of the population to improve future planning, foreseeing the expansion of SA services. The Municipal Basic Sanitation Plan - PMSB was established by Law No. 11.455 / 2007 as an important planning tool for basic sanitation services. It consists of programs, projects and actions aimed at improving the conditions of services that constitute basic sanitation: water supply, sanitation, as well as urban solid waste management and urban river water. With the accelerated urban growth in the municipality of Maués and the intense aggressions to the environment, the PROSAI-MAUÉS ES indicators were identified and diagnosed, which propose improvements in the urban, environmental and basic sanitation conditions of the municipality with the recovery of Lagoas do Silver and Maresia, which for many years have suffered from pollution around the lagoons. The lagoons in question were chosen for the implementation of PROSAI-MAUÉS, explained by the occupation of its margins by low-income population installed on stilts, the existence of flood risk points and the need for renewal of this urban fragment of tourist importance. On-site research was conducted using observation techniques and photographic recording to describe the conditions of local sanitation services. The experience of the PROSAI-MAUÉS project indicates that it is necessary to seek the institutional strengthening of the entities involved with the local society since the early stages. from the initial planning and execution to the final phase of monitoring and follow-up of the services provided by the basic sanitation works, thus ensuring the sustainability of the Program for future generations.

Decades after release of the first PROSPECT + SAIL (commonly called PROSAIL) versions, the model is still the most famous representative in the field of canopy reflectance modelling and has been widely used to obtain plant biochemical and structural variables, particularly in the agricultural context. The performance of the retrieval is usually assessed by quantifying the distance between the estimated and the in situ measured variables. While this has worked for hundreds of studies that obtained canopy density as a one-sided Leaf Area Index (LAI) or pigment content, little is known about the role of the canopy geometrical properties specified as the Average Leaf Inclination Angle (ALIA). In this study, we exploit an extensive field dataset, including narrow-band field spectra, leaf variables and canopy properties recorded in seven individual campaigns for winter wheat (4x) and silage maize (3x). PROSAIL outputs generally did not represent field spectra well, when in situ variables served as input for the model. A manual fitting of ALIA and leaf water (EWT) revealed significant deviations for both variables (RMSE = 14.5°, 0.020 cm) and an additional fitting of the brown leaf pigments (Cbrown) was necessary to obtain matching spectra at the near infrared (NIR) shoulder. Wheat spectra tend to be underestimated by the model until the emergence of inflorescence when PROSAIL begins to overestimate crop reflectance. This seasonal pattern could be attributed to an attenuated development of ALIAopt compared to in situ measured ALIA. Segmentation of nadir images of wheat was further used to separate spectral contributors into dark background, ears and leaves + stalks. It could be shown that the share of visible fruit ears from nadir view correlates positively with the deviations between field spectral measurement and PROSAIL spectral outputs (R² = 0.78 for aggregation by phenological stages), indicating that retrieval errors increase for ripening stages. An appropriate model parameterization is recommended to assure accurate retrievals of biophysical and biochemical products of interest. The interpretation of inverted ALIA as physical leaf inclinations is considered unfeasible and we argue in favour of treating it as a free calibration parameter.

The positive symptoms of psychosis largely involve the experience of illusory social actors, and yet our current measures of social cognition, at best, only weakly predict their presence. We review evidence to suggest that the range of current approaches in social cognition is not sufficient to explain the fundamentally social nature of these experiences. We argue that social agent representation is an important organizing principle for understanding social cognition and that alterations in social agent representation may be a factor in the formation of delusions and hallucination in psychosis. We evaluate the feasibility of this approach in light of clinical and nonclinical studies, developmental research, cognitive anthropology, and comparative psychology. We conclude with recommendations for empirical testing of specific hypotheses and how studies of social cognition could more fully capture the extent of social reasoning and experience in both psychosis and more prosaic mental states.

The eel seems a prosaic animal lurking at the bottom of bodies of fresh water, but it has a most marvelous and surprising life cycle. Born in the Sargasso Sea, a vast sea in the Atlantic Ocean between Bermuda and the Azores, eel larvae may drift thousands of miles before entering fresh water rivers in Europe and North America. Here, they spend their adult lives until they return down river to the ocean, and the Sargasso, to mate and die. Conjecture about this life cycle has occupied naturalists since Aristotle, just as the eel has occupied cooks since Greek times. It has played an important role in the cuisines of cultures around the world. Although it has recently fallen from favor in the U.S. and the U.K., it commonly graced both English and North American tables for centuries. It provided protein for London's poor during the Middle Ages and was a primary food source for the Mayflower pilgrims and other early European settlers in the United States, where it had long been much appreciated by native American peoples.

Mapping crop variables at different growth stages is crucial to inform farmers and plant breeders about the crop status. For mapping purposes, inversion of canopy radiative transfer models (RTMs) is a viable alternative to parametric and non-parametric regression models, which often lack transferability in time and space. Due to the physical nature of RTMs, inversion outputs can be delivered in sound physical units that reflect the underlying processes in the canopy. In this study, we explored the capabilities of the coupled leaf–canopy RTM PROSAIL applied to high-spatial-resolution (0.015 m) multispectral unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) data to retrieve the leaf chlorophyll content (LCC), leaf area index (LAI) and canopy chlorophyll content (CCC) of sweet and silage maize throughout one growing season. Two different retrieval methods were tested: (i) applying the RTM inversion scheme to mean reflectance data derived from single breeding plots (mean reflectance approach) and (ii) applying the same inversion scheme to an orthomosaic to separately retrieve the target variables for each pixel of the breeding plots (pixel-based approach). For LCC retrieval, soil and shaded pixels were removed by applying simple vegetation index thresholding. Retrieval of LCC from UAV data yielded promising results compared to ground measurements (sweet maize RMSE = 4.92 µg/m2, silage maize RMSE = 3.74 µg/m2) when using the mean reflectance approach. LAI retrieval was more challenging due to the blending of sunlit and shaded pixels present in the UAV data, but worked well at the early developmental stages (sweet maize RMSE = 0.70 m2/m2, silage RMSE = 0.61 m2/m2 across all dates). CCC retrieval significantly benefited from the pixel-based approach compared to the mean reflectance approach (RMSEs decreased from 45.6 to 33.1 µg/m2). We argue that high-resolution UAV imagery is well suited for LCC retrieval, as shadows and background soil can be precisely removed, leaving only green plant pixels for the analysis. As for retrieving LAI, it proved to be challenging for two distinct varieties of maize that were characterized by contrasting canopy geometry.

A presente dissertação discute dois conceitos centrais da Estética de Hegel: o estado universal do mundo heróico e o prosaico. Estes dois conceitos remetem a determinações e realidades históricas diferenciadas. De um lado, no estado do mundo heróico, à autonomia individual do herói, o qual tem sua ação em unidade imediata com o universal, o divino. Para Hegel este é o estado vindicado pelo ideal artístico. De outro lado, os estados prosaicos, nos quais a ação individual da pessoa se encontra mediada pelas instituições do Estado, mediação cuja natureza exige justamente uma forma de exposição capaz de captar tais mediações, a filosofia. A partir destes conceitos, situados em sua relação com a arte enquanto exposição absoluta da verdade do espírito, se busca aqui tematizar o lugar da experiência grega na leitura sistemática de Hegel, articulando dois aspectos que aparecem como fundamentais em sua Estética, a saber: a experiência grega como coincidente com o conceito de clássico, isto é, como lugar da verdadeira expressão do belo; e ao mesmo tempo, esta expressão bela, tal como pensada por Hegel, como um momento pouco desenvolvido da exposição absoluta do espírito. O índice deste desenvolvimento em Hegel é a autoconsciência da liberdade do espírito e por isso, aos atuais estados prosaicos corresponde, por sua vez, a mais alta realização da liberdade no mundo moderno. Esta realização é mais verdadeira porque mais concreta e está relacionada à exposição absoluta de si do espírito por meio do conceito, determinando deste modo o esgotamento da forma artística enquanto dotada de valor absoluto de verdade nos atuais estados prosaicos.The present dissertation discusses two central concepts of Hegel´s Aesthetics: the universal state of heroic world and the prosaic. These two concepts refer to the determinations and different historical realities. On one hand, in the state of heroic world, upon individual autonomy of hero. Who has your action in direct unit with the universal, the holy. To Hegel this is the state which is vindicated by the artistic ideal. On the other hand, the prosaic states, where the person\' s individual action is mediated by the state institutions, mediation in which nature just claim one way of exposition able to catch those mediations, the philosophy. From these concepts, located in their relationship with the art like the absolute exposition ofthe spirit truth, the search here is to render problematic the place of the Greek experience inthe systematic reading of Hegel, articulating two aspects which appear like mains in bis Aesthetics, that means: the Greek experience like coincident of the classical concept, that is, like the place of the true expression of the beautifulness; and at its time, this beautiful expression, like it was though by Hegel, like one moment not so developed of absolute exposition of spirit. The table of this development in Hegel is the auto conscience of the liberty of spirit and for that reasons, to the present prosaic states is according, at the same time, to the highest accomplishment of liberty in the modero world. This accomplishment is the truest because it is the conc rete and it is related to the absolute exposition of the spirit itself by the concrete, determining this way the weakness of the artistic form while gifted of absolute value of truth the present prosaic states.

Such an attention to everyday practice widens the analytical lens on social governing; allowing for disjunctive possibilities of everyday governing rather than focusing on over-determined discoveries of neoliberal rule. Indeed, a prosaics of state institutions relocates interagency workers and institutions from their positioning at the end-points of neoliberal rule and, instead, welcomes their diverse political and social actions as the very foundations on which governing is shaped. In so doing, it reveals practices of state institutions and interagency workers that can be creative, emotive and, as I assert, caring. In accessing everyday spaces through my research, I utilise a case study interagency programme of the New South Wales Government entitled Families First, which attempts to better facilitate the support of families with young children. It is an examination of the spaces of Families First that reveals the multiple ideological framings, congested institutional histories, changeable politics and everyday practices of workers that characterise state institutions and form the foundations of social governing. Rather than rehearse or raze understandings of neoliberal governing, the inclusiveness of a prosaic approach allows neoliberalism to co-exist as a potential practice of diverse interagency contexts; supporting hopeful perspectives on interagency working and nurturing a mutual language of prosaic politics, governing and ethics.

This sourcebook provides the first systematic overview of witchcraft laws and trials in Russia and Ukraine from medieval times to the late nineteenth century. The book weaves scholarly commentary with never-before-published primary source materials translated from Polish, Russian, and Ukrainian. These sources include the earliest references to witchcraft and sorcery, secular and religious laws regarding witchcraft and possession, full trial transcripts, and a wealth of magical spells. The documents present a rich panorama of daily life and reveal the extraordinary power of magical words. The book presents new analyses of the workings and evolution of legal systems, the interplay and tensions between church and state, and the prosaic concerns of the women and men involved in witchcraft proceedings. The extended documentary commentaries also explore the shifting boundaries and fraught political relations between Russia and Ukraine.

Bakhtin as a philosopher and a student of the novel is intent upon the novel’s role in the history of consciousness. His project fails if he is wrong about the dialogic nature of consciousness or the cultural centrality of the novel as the only discourse that can model human consciousness and its intersubjective character. Inventing the Novel is an argument in four stages: the Introduction surveys Bakhtin’s life and his theoretical work in the 1920s, which grounded his work on the novel, as investigated in following chapters. Chapter 1 sketches Bakhtin’s view of literary history as an agonistic dialogue of genres, concluding with his claim that the novel originates as a new way of evaluating time. Chapter 2 explores Bakhtin’s theory of chronotopes: how do forms of time and space in ancient fiction delimit the possible representation of the human? Chapter 3 assesses Bakhtin’s poetics of genre in his account of Menippean satire as crucial in the history of the novel. Chapter 4 uses Petronius to address the prosaics of the novel, exploring Bakhtin’s account of how novelists of “the second stylistic line” orchestrate the babble of voices expressive of an era into “a microcosm of heteroglossia,” focusing it through the consciousness of characters “on the boundary” between I and thou. Insofar as this analysis succeeds, it evinces the truth of Bakhtin’s claim that the role of Petronius’s Satyrica in the history of the novel is “immense.”

This chapter examines how the Liberal Party nominated Franklin D. Roosevelt for a fourth term as president, and how the party's first task was to establish itself as a real player in New York politics. In order to do this it needed to convince voters to defect from the American Labor Party (ALP), from the Democrats, and from the Republicans, and vote on its line. As the city and state's complicated New Deal coalition fractured at the end of World War II, the liberals thus sought to identify themselves as the most consistent supporters of the New Deal's “fighting liberalism,” and as the Left's most consistent opponents of communism. They built an unusual structure in mainstream US politics in that it connected their mass base to a leadership that included leading progressive intellectuals. For a time, the Liberal Party of New York harbored aspirations to become the seed of a national political realignment, an idea that seemed to be in the air at the time of its founding, but first it faced the prosaic tasks of gaining ballot status and overtaking the ALP. Neither of these was easily accomplished.

This chapter argues that white Baltimoreans acted on their fears of free black crime all the time, often violently and usually with the municipality’s approval. In the process, it shows that the compatibility between professional and popular policing manifested not only in job-busting attacks and home invasions but also in more prosaic moments, such as when an ordinary citizen arrested a black man or protected him from harm. The public authorities were nominally engaged in a broader project of seizing legitimate force for the state alone, but the policing of free black Baltimoreans relied upon informal white power no less than it did upon formal state power. Police officers did not always protect them. Prisons did not always house them. In the age of slavery, Baltimore’s officials preferred to leave the fates of free people of color to ordinary white men. When it came to policing black people, white vigilantes were the police.

Hegel has long been considered both the father of art history and the prophet of art’s end. This chapter explains this hybrid reputation and argues that a misunderstanding of both what Hegel means by the “end of art” and the “end of history” prevents us from understanding art’s role in his philosophical idealism. It argues that art has three kinds of endings in Hegel’s system: conceptual ends, prosaic ends, and a historical end. It suggests that while Part II of Hegel’s aesthetics enhances our understanding of his social-political philosophy, the less-discussed Part III enables us to understand his theory of selfhood, perception, feeling, and freedom. It describes the intense philosophizing about art among Hegel’s contemporaries and discusses the complex state of the sources available for analyzing Hegel’s thoughts about art.

This chapter explores Hoshi Hajime's emergence as a so-called self-made man and the origins of his company. It examines how Hajime — with more than a little help from his extraordinarily influential friends — founded his company to take advantage of a climate that privileged Western medicines and emphasized the importance of medicinal self-sufficiency for Japan. The chapter contextualizes his early life story and his intellectual inspirations and globetrotting experiences amid the widespread changes occurring both inside and outside Japan at the turn of the twentieth century. Hoshi Pharmaceuticals followed a prosaic pattern of many successful companies in the early years of Japan's industrialization (and of companies throughout the world, then and now). Ultimately, the chapter unfolds how Hoshi Pharmaceuticals blurred the lines between state and industry and benefited from politicians' favoritism and largesse.

„US, CATHOLICS, WE WORSHIP HOLY IMAGES”: ON THE OLD POLISH CULT OF IMAGES IN THE LIGHT OF THE TRADITION OF MIRACULOUS SALVATIONS OF SOUTH-EASTERN POLISH CITIES DURING THE KHMELNYTSKY UPRISING Iconolatry had for centuries spread controversies among Christian communities. Nevertheless, in the early modern Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, adoration of images became one of the most common forms of popular and official religion. The article starts with a confrontation of modern anthropological theories (Tokarska-Bakir, Gadamer) with early modern sources to examine the ontological status of holy images and their relation to what they represented. The next part focuses on the origin myths of paintings coming from South- -Eastern Poland that emerged or gained popularity during the Khmelnytsky uprising (1648-1654). Elaborating on these legends, I investigate the “invention of tradition” (Hobsbawm, Ranger) and the way in which the supernatural causes gradually replaced more prosaic ones. In the last part, I indicate the possible functions of iconolatry and its role in early modern society.

Samuel Beckett excused himself from his affair with Pamela Mitchell with a syntactically evocative phrase: ‘It is I the hurter of the two’. The definite article is telling: How it is (1964 [1961]) universalises one cruel, asymmetric, pseudo-amorous relationship, deducing from it ‘billions’ of similarly helpless, prostrate, mud-bound ‘creatures’, exchanging roles as torturers and victims in a leniently egalitarian distribution of suffering. Titled ‘Pim’ from 1958 until its publication, Beckett’s last, long, prose-like work happened to coincide with the Algerian War of Independence, during which the French authorities tortured captured revolutionary fighters with scant concern for the European Convention on Human Rights. Their pretext was semantic: a novel legal category was invented, ‘pris les armes à la main’, or PAM—a likely homophone both of How it is’s protagonist and of Beckett’s recent ex. Using contemporaneous news reports and recent feminist historical scholarship, ‘Safe Words’ argues that the author’s biographic reminiscences have been transposed onto documented examples of state-sanctioned torture of Algerian women in particular. The essay tentatively concludes that everyday, prosaic acts of gendered domination might not be quite as qualitatively different from official violence as certain readers would wish to believe.

Virginia Woolf's third and final diary stage records the ever-nearing wars without that assailed her (and finally surrounded her) and her (artistic) wars within as she sought to address the outer world’s state in a constructive and creative way. In her last dozen years, Woolf's diaries served as a vital tool in her fight against fascism, its tyranny and wars. To understand this is to probe the political implications of genre. A diary's very “ordinariness” works to counter fascism's false, hysterical melodrama. A diary's “prosaic discontinuities” both deflate and defuse the dictators' pumped-up play. Her complex diary portraits further challenge the fascist fantasy of villains and heroes. Woolf's diary is her last major work to reach the public. In this book, I have sought to reveal the foundational role this semi-private diary served for Woolf's public works and for her artistic renewal. Indeed, I believe that her published fiction and nonfiction would not exist without her diary. Among voracious readers, Woolf may be unique in her appreciation of the treasures hidden in diaries. In others' diaries, Woolf sought not only the natural human voice but also the life traces beyond her own, especially ones that she could transform into art. In the end, a diary becomes a perfect image for Virginia Woolf: fragile yet resilient, it is always subject to movement, is rich in renewal, and is inevitably subject to death—and yet, it is deathless as well.

The prosaic works of Yang Won Sik (1932–2006), a representative of Korean literature in Kazakhstan, are considered for the first time. After the Korean War, the DPRK leadership sent talented youth to Moscow to get an education. The New Republic needed qualified specialists to build a new state. Yang Won Sik graduates from VGIK in 1958 and stays in the USSR. He devoted many years to the life of the Kazakhfilm Studio and the republican newspaper Kore Ilbo. Yang Won Sik was a member of the Union of Writers of the USSR (1990) and Kazakhstan, a member of the Union of Cinematographers of the USSR, a member of the international PEN Club. The prose by Yang Won Sik written in a dialect of the province of Hamken conveys the historical “time — space” through the system of images and, in particular, verbal images. The author introduces the reader to the panorama of events of the beginning of the last century to the present. In his works of the 1950s and 1980s, Yang Won Sik uses Koryo mar in artistic speech. In the stories describing the events of the early twentieth century, the language of the Far Eastern Koreans is different. Each historical period creates its own words that disappear with the era.
