In this paper, the view is proposed that human culture appears fundamental in resolving the problem of ‘the human condition’. Its holistic nature comprises all tangible and intangible aspects, including artefacts, language and communication. It is the culture-language complex which is responsible for the generation of both collective and individual human identity via its locality expressed in a plethora of tangibleintangible manifestations. The regionalism of this complex ought to result in special care of both institutions and individuals who, by demonstrating active involvement on a local scale, are co-responsible for the maintenance of local cultural-linguistic identity. Its vitality is, in turn, more than significant for the maintenance of identity on a larger (e.g. national, global) scale. The aforementioned aspects of regionalism are discussed here on the basis of a review of the content of an encyclopedic outline of Kashubian culture (Bedeker) authored by Tadeusz Bolduan.
Results of the studying technological complexes on block facing stone quarries for conditions the Ukrainian crystalline shield are feature in the article. The main ways of the branch monoliths from arrays and their division on goods blocks are analysed for this research. The factors, which influence upon the choice of the equipment of technological complexes, are determined. On the base of results we got the recommendations on shaping of technological complexes for increasing of capacity block facing stone quarries are given.
