21 Stereotype
Were there no practical uniformities in the environment, there would be no economy and only error in the human habit of accepting foresight for sight. But there are uniformities sufficiently accurate, and the need of economizing attention so inevitable, that the abandonment of all stereotypes for a wholly innocent approach to experience would impoverish human life. (Lippmann, 1965, p. 60)Historical dictionary of quotations in cognitive science > Stereotype

There would be a rumour that Kanareikin still wielded power (2a).♦ Ему [Петру Петровичу] надо было только поскорей и немедленно разузнать: что и как тут случилось? В силе эти люди или не в силе? Есть ли чего бояться собственно ему, или нет? (Достоевский 3). Не [Pyotr Petrovich] needed only to find out at once and quickly what went on here, and how. Did these people have any power, or did they not have any power? Was there anything for him to fear personally, or was there not? (3c).♦...Князь Андрей возобновил старые знакомства, особенно с теми лицами, которые, он знал, были в силе и могли быть нужны ему (Толстой 5)....Prince Andrei looked up old acquaintances, especially those he knew to be in power and whose aid he might need (5a).♦ "Зачем ты не сказал, что он [немец] в силе?"

The whole expression of his face told her that he had not forgotten the morning's talk, that his decision remained in force, and only the presence of visitors hindered his speaking of it to her now (5b).♦ О деле Норвегова кое-где узнали, прошли демонстрации, но приговор остался в силе (Соколов 1). Here and there people learned about the Norvegov case, there were demonstrations, but the sentence remained in force (1a).♦ "Ну, пока поверим [ вам].

* * *telenovela nfTV soap operaTELENOVELATelenovelas are TV soap operas, mainly originating in Mexico and Colombia, which are hugely popular in Spanish-speaking countries, and are even exported as far afield as Russia and Eastern Europe. They have their roots in the “radionovela”, which first developed in Cuba in the 1930s. Their stories can run for hundreds of episodes, eventually leading to a climactic ending. Some have historical settings, and while a few have dealt with topical controversies, many are far removed from the everyday life of most viewers, and typically depict an upper-class family stricken by fate, tragedy or passion.* * *f soap (opera)* * *telenovela nf: soap opera* * *telenovela n soap opera -
