Abstract: The article examines the destructive component in the professional ideology and media texts of Russian émigré journalists, whose subject matter for analysis and description is the current political regime in Russia and the personalities of specific state figures, the special military operation in Ukraine, the institution of religion, the public consciousness of Russians, and journalism itself as a professional activity. The focus on the specifics of the activities of modern émigré journalists is обусловлен, firstly, by the need to highlight their subjectivity within the configuration of the domestic information space as producers of a destructive professional ideology; secondly, to indicate the expediency of introducing criteria for a destructive media text created by émigré journalists. The aim of the study was to identify and describe the specifics of destruct themes in the professional ideology and media texts of the subdiscourse formed by Russian émigré journalists. The methodological basis of the study consisted of works on media ecology, media linguistics, and migration discourse, which were used to determine the role of émigré journalists in the domestic information space, to summarize the parameters of destructive media text, and to analyze the content of “new players” in online communication in terms of their destructive intentions and meanings. It was revealed that destructive strategies are aimed at encouraging the audience to change its ideological stance regarding the military political conflict between the collective West and Russia and to join the system of anti-values promoted by foreign agents. According to the study’s findings, the key criterion for the destructiveness of such media texts is the active exploitation of various types of stigmatization (anthropological, social, psychological, cultural, and institutional) within the society whose sociopolitical system the emigrant journalist chooses as the target of criticism. The novelty of the study lies in the proposal to the scientific community to identify a specific type of destructive media text created by émigré journalists as a tool for conducting modern information warfare. The conclusion drawn is that it is necessary to study these mechanisms of destruction as an actual threat posed by émigré journalists to the domestic media space. Understanding this fact will help to adjust the mission of risk journalism, strengthen media criticism, and form an effective proenvironmental agenda in conflict-driven media communication.

Abstract: The subject of the research is the retranslation strategies applied to Blaise Cendrars' poem «Prose of the Trans-Siberian and of Little Jeanne of France» («La Prose du Transsibérien et de la petite Jehanne de France») (1913). The research material comprises the original poem and its two Russian translations by M. P. Kudinov (1974) and M. D. Yasnov (2015). The poem is considered as a source of the cultural myth of the Trans-Siberian Railway, which each translator recreates for the reader of their era. The relevance of the work is determined by the interest of modern translation studies in the phenomenon of retranslation, as well as by the continuation of the myth's life in contemporary culture. The purpose of the work is to test A. Berman's Retranslation Hypothesis on this material, according to which the first translation adapts the text for the reader of the target culture, while subsequent versions move closer to the original. The main research method is a comparative analysis of the original and the translations at three levels: graphical (punctuation, strophic structure), phonic (rhyme, sound organization), and lexico-semantic (proper names, cultural realia, images of Russia and France). To describe the transformations, the concepts of «domestication» and «foreignization», archaization and modernization, as well as elements of receptive aesthetics are used. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that the two Russian translations of the poem are compared within the framework of the retranslation theory for the first time. It is established that Kudinov's translation maintains closeness to the letter of the original but normalizes its form: restores punctuation, adds lines for rhyme, and expands stanzas. Yasnov's translation returns the avant-garde form to the text — sporadic punctuation, onomatopoeia — but actively adapts the vocabulary: generalizes toponyms, introduces Russian realia and occasionalisms. The studied examples partially confirm Berman's hypothesis: the retranslation moves closer to the original at the level of form and departs from it at the level of vocabulary. The results can be used in studies on the reception of the French avant-garde in Russia and in teaching the theory of literary translation.

Abstract: This article analyzes the transformation of the formats and content of BRICS-related news narratives on the "TV BRICS" media platform and the "Sputnik" news agency over the decade spanning 2015 to 2025. It defines "news narratives" as a key tool for constructing the image of BRICS within the global information space. Based on the study, the author outlines the main stages in the development and evolution of content-creation approaches on these platforms. A distinct trend in the transformation of news narratives is identified: a shift from an initial focus primarily on economics to comprehensive coverage of multipolarity, technological cooperation, and cultural exchange. Particular attention is paid to changes in information delivery formats. The article demonstrates how coverage of BRICS activities has evolved from traditional reporting to modern interactive formats, including VR video, teleconferences, and multilingual news feeds. These changes are examined in the context of the deliberate creation of a unified information space among the member states. The study employed exhaustive sampling and comparative analysis. An illustrative corpus of content from "Sputnik" and "TV BRICS" was compiled, resulting in a dataset of 200 items selected through exhaustive sampling. "TV BRICS" and "Sputnik" complement one another, creating a synergistic effect; the visually grand style of "TV BRICS" establishes a value-based foundation that reinforces the concise, fact-based reporting of "Sputnik." This combination ensures a comprehensive impact on target audiences and helps strengthen information sovereignty. Thus, the activities of these platforms not only reflect but also actively shape new news narratives regarding global processes, thereby fostering the institutionalization of sovereignty-related values ​​within BRICS. A key methodological shift involves moving the focus from the question of "what exactly users consume" to "how platforms establish a dialogue with each specific audience segment." Consequently, a priority area of ​​analysis is the study of the mechanisms that foster loyalty and institutional trust. This entails examining how media platforms—through content personalization, interactive features, and stylistic adaptation—go beyond mere information delivery to forge a lasting cognitive and emotional connection with their audience.
