The present article addresses the science classification problem in the context of modern postnonclassical in-tellectual culture. The aim of the article is a brief philosophical analysis of approaches to the classification of sciences and characterization of their application for solving applied problems of systematization of modern science. In the first part of the article using the material of classical systems of scientific knowledge proposed by Aristotle, F. Bacon, G.W. Leibniz, the fundamental principles of categorization of sciences are considered, assuming the reflection of the ontological structure of the surrounding world. Since postnonclassical science is a dynamic system, a combination of analytical (a priori, theoretical) and synthetic (posteriori, empirical) ap-proaches is proposed to solve modern applied problems of science systematization. The second part of the article discusses some shortcomings and practical recommendations for the compilation of scientific classifica-tions. The main emphasis is stressed on the need to reflect interdisciplinary research. To sum up, conclusions dwells upon the fact that in the context of postnonclassical rationality universal classification of sciences is un-attainable, but there is a need for philosophical search of techniques for realization of applied tasks of modern sciences classification.

Still, ordinary and some demonological women are shown as sexual objects more often than male characters of the "Nordeutsche Sagen"

The article is about the coverage of European Parliament's resolution "On the importance of European remembrance for the future of Europe" in the articles of web portal "Sputnik Estonia" which is a part of IIA "Rossiya segodnya" and is focused on the Baltic countries. The attitude on the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact (that was signed in 1939 by USSR and the Hitler's Germany) is analysed; this treaty is deeply condemned in the resolution and, oppositely, is justified by Russian politics and media. The articles of other Russian media contextually related to the topic are contemplated. The conclusion is about "Sputnik Estonia"'s propagandic matrix: the European countries are trying to rewrite the history what eventually may lead to the rehabilitation of Nazism. Russia is standing opposite to that and interpreting the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact and the consequences the right way. It seems that this matrix geared towards the senior generation of the Baltics' citizens grown up on Soviet traditions.
