| Title | Impersonal Sentences in Finnish and Russian: Syntactic and Semantic Properties |
| Description | The study describes the semantics of sentences that are called impersonal in Russian and Finnish. The starting point is syntactic non-congruence, which leads to a classification of sentence models with distinct syntactic-semantic structures. These are found to be nearly identical in the two languages. The motivations for the impersonal/non-congruent sentence models are established and tentatively connected with typological phenomena, syntactic subject prominence and word order. |

| Title | Восточнославянские отглагольные существительные на -м. Том I: существителные на *мъ/*ма/*мо |
| Description | The main topic of the study is the attestation of deverbative nouns ending in -м-, which are formed on a Slavonic basis without intermediary -ь- or -ъ-. The numerous dialect dictionaries and vocabularies of the East Slavonic languages and the most important dictionaries of all Slavonic languages form the main source of lexical material for the etymologization of the words in question. Seventy seven etymologies (most of them new) of East Slavonic deverbative nouns ending in *-мъ *-ма/*-мо are presented in the study. New etymologies are proposed, among others, for Literary Russian глум, дума, корм, корма, космы, кум(а), налим, пасмо, терем, угрюмый, хоромо, чума, шум and яма. On the basis of the proposed etymologies it is possible to give many new examples of the simplification of Common Slavonic word-internal consonant clusters. |

| Title | Литературный анекдот пушкинской эпохи |
| Description |
This monograph is the first attempt to deal with a subject on which no special study has so far been published. Until now Russian anecdote has been researched as a cultural phenomenon by well-known scholars: however, it has not been studied as an integral whole. The need for a synthetic approach has been acutely felt by historians working with early nineteenth century Russian literature: the wide sphere of anecdote comes up constantly in the study of plot structures and poetics of the period. The book presents and analyses groups of anecdotes which are divided into certain cycles. They are presented as complete texts with their rules, characteristic plot structures and poetics. In the research particular attention is paid to methology which aims at opening new perspectives for further study of Pushkin's period in literature. |

| Title | Мандельштам и сталинская эпоха: эзопов язык в поэзии Мандельштама 30-х годов |
| Description | This book is based on close readings of Mandel'shtam's late poetry. It shows how Mandel'shtam's usage of literary and cultural subtexts served in the 1930's not only for esthetic but also for political encoding. The work gives a new perspective on Mandel'shtam's late oeuvre, showing that his path from the epigram against Stalin to the so-called "ode" was not a shift to conformity but a logical literary maneuver, changing his open literary protest to a well-hidden challenge to Stalin's bloody reign. |

| Description | This dissertation focuses on the short story Starukha (The Old Woman), one of the last works of the Russian writer Daniil Kharms (1905-1942). The story, written in 1939, is analysed using the Kharmsian concepts èto and to (this and that) as a heuristic interpretative model. The model is applied to study the different states of consciousness of the male protagonist, the hidden symbolic meanings of the reality presented in the story, the narrative devices of the story, its hidden biblical allusions, and, finally, the grotesque, absurd and paradoxical aspects that manifest themselves in the story. |

| Title | "Four Ways of Writing the City": St. Petersburg-Leningrad as a Metaphor in the poetry of Joseph Brodsky" |
| Description | The present study discusses the theme of St. Petersburg-Leningrad in Joseph Brodsky's verse works. The chosen approach to the evolving im-age of the city in Brodsky's poetry is through four metaphors: St. Peters-burg as "the common place" of the Petersburg Text, St. Petersburg as "Paradise and/or Hell", St. Petersburg as "a Utopian City" and St. Peters-burg as "a Void". This examination of the city-image focusses on the aspects of space and time as basic categories underlying the poet's poetic world view. |

| Description | This monograph employs a substantialist approach in examining the specific use of the verbs znati and um(j)eti in the Serbian, Croatian and Bosnian language(s) as auxiliaries that denote habitual, characteristic or sporadic activity. Drawing from corpus and questionnaire data, the study provides a syntactic description of such use and analyses its semantic content in the light of universal categories of tense, mood and aspect. Theories of grammaticalisation are applied in a discussion of possible explanations for the development of this use from other meanings of the lexemes znati and um(j)eti. |

| Title | Problems of
Proto-Slavic Historical Nominal Morphology. On the Basis
of Old Church Slavic |
| Description | This book addresses some of the most disputed issues of Proto-Slavic nominal inflectional morphology. Several of the discussed morphological elements are relevant for the question of whether there was a regular change of the Proto-Indo-European vowel */o/ to Proto-Slavic */u/ in closed final syllables. Special attention is paid to the role that grammatical gender plays in analogical morphological processes. New diachronic solutions are offered, e.g., for the */o/-stem dative singular ending -u, for the masculine-neuter nominative singular ending -y ~ -’ę of the active present participle, and for the nominative-accusative singular form of the Slavic */es/-stem neuters. The material used is mostly drawn from the canonical Old Church Slavic corpus. The book also contains an exhaustive classification of all Old Church Slavic nouns and adjectives according to their historical stem class, gender, and derivational structure. |

about in Russian and Finnish. The study uses Functional
Syntax to investigate what meanings the speakers wish to
convey when talking about time, and conceptual metaphor
theory to explain why the expression of time are as they
are. The analysis is based on a material consisting of more
than 2,200 expressions of time. This study introduces both theoretical and methodological novelties in the nature of material used, in developing empirical methodology for conceptual metaphor studies, in the exactness of defining the limits of different conceptual metaphors, and in seeking unity among the different sides of time. |

| Title | Patterns of Transcendence
– Classical Myth in Marina Tsvetaeva's Poetry of the 1920s |
| Description | This study examines the position and meaning of Classical mythological plots, themes and characters in the oeuvre of the Russian Modernist poet Marina Tsvetaeva (1892–1941). The material consists of lyric poems from the collection Posle Rossii (1928) and two longer lyrical tragedies, Ariadna (1924) and Fedra (1927). These works are examined in the context of Russian Modernism and Tsvetaeva's own poetic development, also taking into account the author's biography, namely, her correspondence with Boris Pasternak. Tsvetaeva's appropriations of the myths enter into a dialogue with the Classical tradition and with the earlier Russian and Western literary manifestations of the source material. Her Classical texts are inextricably linked with her own authorial myth, they are used to project both her ideas about poetry as well as the authored self of her poems. |

| Title | Varietas et concordia.
Essays in Honour of Pekka Pesonen |
| Description | The volume is dedicated to Professor Pekka Pesonen on the occasion of his sixtieth birthday. It includes 38 articles, written by Professor Pesonen’s friends and colleagues – Finnish, Estonian, Russian and American scholars and also representatives of Professor Pesonen’s Finnish School. The topics covered by the articles range from general and theoretical questions concerning mainly Russian literature, culture and semiotics to specific and detailed analyses of Russian literary his-tory. The thematic variety (varietas) reflects Professor Pesonen’s keen interest in the study of literature and culture, the semiotics of Russian cultural history and the analysis of Texts (literary and cultural) within their social contexts. But his interests never have been bounded only by the pure scientific goals and Pekka Pesonen is widely known as a translator, literary critic, great ad-mirer of Russian culture and a part of it himself. The unity and agreement (concordia) of these different approaches is to be found in а search for understanding, – understanding literature, un-derstanding the specifics of Russian culture. Ultimately, it is а quest for understanding the emer-gence and the narration of Texts in history. |
