Herezje Jana Gondowicza

Author(s): Anita Jarzyna / Language(s): Polish Issue: 4/2014

The essay is a review of Jan Gondowicz’s most recent book, "Trans-Autentyk. Nie-czyste formy Brunona Schulza" [Trans-Authentic. Bruno Schulz’s Im-pure Forms]. Most of the texts included in the volume focus on Schulz’s graphics and drawings. Gondowicz, a highly unconventional Schulz scholar, believes that they convey the cipher of the writer’s mythology by referring to a secret society from Drogobych, called “Kalleia,” which aimed to revive an ancient cult based on the sacred value of eroticism. This is the central hypothesis to be found in Gondowicz’s masterful essays, informing also his interpretations of some of Schulz’s short stories. Analyzing Schulz’s drawings, Gondowicz discovers in them traces of a crisis of the ineffable and their epiphanic potential, later articulated in fiction.

La letteratura rutena della Rzeczpospolita Obojga Narodów nella ricezione critica polacca

Author(s): Giovanna Brogi / Language(s): Italian Issue: 10/2019

The interest of Polish scholars in literary works written in Ruthenian or in Polish language in the borderlands of the Commonwealth varied in different periods. By the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 1930s, Poland was rather focused on the construction of her new national state and the accentuation of her civilizational mission towards Eastern Slavic literature. After World War II, the new borders of the Polish state under Communist rule directed the attention of Polish scholars and cultural dealers toward a new national conception, whose goal was to eradicate the memory of the Commonwealth and to canalize the intellectual efforts towards “truly” Polish heritage, anti-German antagonism and politically correct ideologies. However, some groundbreaking works were written in the 1960s. Radical changes appeared after 1989. Publications multiplied exponentially in the 1990s and 2000s. Post-colonial studies emerged. In Polish scholarship and culture, two main trends may be indicated: on the one hand, the need to analyze the cultural, linguistic and literary specificities of the borderlands of Ukraine and Belarus in the Lithuanian Grand principality and in the Crown territories; on the other, the need to consider in a systemic approach all the components (Ruthenian, Polish, Lithuanian, Jewish, German) of society and culture of the Rzeczpospolita. The article focuses on the most interesting trends and publications of the periods indicated above.

The extinction of the Ukrainian culture of the Polish-Ukrainian-Slovak borderland and the image of the “Ukrainian Banderite” in Polish and Czechoslovak literature, journalism and cinematography, mid-1940s–1980s

Author(s): Roman Drozd,Michal Šmigeľ / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2020

The aim of this study is to outline the process of the extinction of Ukrainian culture in south-eastern Poland as a result of Polish resettlement actions and the activities of the Ukrainian underground movement (i.e., the Ukrainian Insurgent Army) in the post-war period (1944–1947). Concurrently, the study offers an analysis of the image of the “Ukrainian Banderite”, created by propaganda in Polish and Czechoslovak literature, journalism, and cinematography in the period from the mid-1940s to the end of the 1980s. The authors state that both in Poland and in Czechoslovakia the analysed topic has been subject to certain cyclical waves of interest, or current political demand or usefulness, but always according to an established and politically accepted template. The black-and-white reception of the issue, propaganda fictions, the concealment of facts, and the disproportionate highlighting of others, which were applied in the literary and film production of the real-socialist period, only distorted the historical objectivity of the issue and created a complicated stereotype in the collective memory.

Methods of study: Comparative and comparative historical methods are used to reveal the influence of other Ukrainian (I. Kotlyarevsky, M. Shashkevych, M. Ustijanovych, Y. Golovatsky, P. Kulish, A.

Зони перетину метамов термiнографiчноï критики й лiнгвiс-тичноï експертологiï в украïнському мовознавствi

Author(s): Tetyana Petrova / Language(s): Ukrainian Issue: XXV/2020

This article considers the intersecting areas of metalanguages of ter-minographic criticism and linguistic expertology as independent scientific interdiscipli-nary directions and equivalent sections of applied linguistics which exist in Ukrainian linguistics. It was found that “mirror” term-semantic groups are formed at the intersection of metalanguages and these metalanguages interact closely and are enriched with terms. It is discovered that the metalanguage of terminographic criticism is more supplemented by the terms of linguistic expertology (as the latter is a less open system) and at the intersection of these metalanguages the terms form synonymous relations and, to a lesser extent, – hypero-hyponymic and antonymous relations. It is observed that borrowing a term, a metalanguage-recipient specializes the meaning of its concept or expands the meaning of the concept, forming an intersystem polysemy. It was proven that the presence of different types of semantic connections between their nuclear units in the area of intersection of metalanguages of terminological criticism and linguistic expertology testifies to the selection of the best concept correspondent, their heteroge-neity in structure and incompleteness of terminological system structure. It is promising to create a dictionary of terminographic criticism metalanguage and to take into account the revealed epidigmatic and paradigmatic connections within the system and between other terminological systems during the representation of its parameters.

Topos of the Province in Ukrainian Literature: Post-Soviet Discourse

Author(s): Olena Romanenko / Language(s): English Issue: 105/2020

The article looks into Soviet and post-Soviet identity episodes in contemporary Ukrainian prose and offers models to interpret this phenomenon. In Ukrainian literature, this phenomenon is described in stories of characters returning to the places of their childhood and youth, that is, to the province. The province shows up as an important specific model with “Soviet leftover” vestiges that has proved to be extraordinarily stable and that Soviet everyday life has hardly changed. The authors of Ukrainian prose Serhiy Zhadan (novel “Voroshilovgrad”) and Artem Chech (novel “District D”) embody two models of analysis of the Soviet past. The first model suggests the regeneration of a simulacrum identity that does not maintain any links or connections with the family history. The second model mirrors the acceptance of the Soviet reality as the Other / Alien and the awareness of oneself as the Other. In both cases, the Soviet past is desacralized.
