The full capabilities and requirements which the architecture of NGN can provide to the modern technologies, applications and services have not yet been reached. However, some limited function levels of the network are beginning to emerge. This requires thinking in the direction of other architectural solutions for the development of networks. An important element in the development of the concept of new generation networks is the identification of steps for a smooth transition from the existing network to the new architecture. The move from technology-oriented to customer-oriented networks is revolutionary. Realizing NWGN will require both tremendous technological advances and progress in governance.

Automation as engineering practice suggests that there is a choice of working methods. To capture management process of automated production, one cannot rely solely on the routine of specialist operator. What is needed is a theory that allows for the design of a system to manage the production process, taking into account factors that characterize this process. The application of quantitative theory of feedback leads to clarification of the issues of compromises imposed by the actual working conditions stemming from fundamental concepts - sustainability, quality, change of the parameters of the object, interference level, complexity of the regulator and bandwidth.

The issue of creating and implementing integrated internal management systems is very topical (IICS) for the governance of telecommunications and information technology structures . The use of an IICS for the corporate governance should be considered, as this would be an essential solution to the open questions on the efficient management especially in international companies. In the practice of research, analysis and audit of IICS many practical approaches based on international applied standards are used. This paper proposes a IICS model, a methodology and an algorithm for the evaluation of its operating efficiency.

Currently, the business world is constantly changing and every day becomes more complicated and more complex. In essence, it is fraught with risk. In recent years, increasing regulatory requirements force companies to spend resources to deal with issues of risk. Properly constituted, risk assessment gives organizations a clear picture of the status of risks in business processes, whether internal or external, imminent or far into the future. The process of risk assessment applied consistently throughout the organization enables better management, identification, assessment and treatment of risks to the business. The present work deals with particular issues related to the risk assessment applied in telecommunication structures.

The article presents metaphorically understood falls of the twentieth-century art described in such terms as the ‘speechless image,’ the ‘absorption of the ugly,’ the ‘abandonment of art,’ the ‘end of art,’ the ‘lost image,’ the ‘lost experience.’ Philosophical views of Hans-Georg Gadamer, Theodor W. Adorno, Arthur C. Danto, Jacques Ranciere, and Wolfgang Welsh have been juxtaposed with interpretations of works of such artists as Mark Rothko, Marcel Duchamp, Artur Zmijewski, Andy Warhol, Robert Rauschenberg, and Janusz Orbitowski. The analyses reveal a longing for metaphysics accompanying the described ‘falls’ of art. The theories advanced in relation to such ‘falls’ show the qualities inherent in the art in question, e.g., silence and moderation, the ‘lust of existence,’ paradox, poetry and its beauty, words which interpret art, the sublimity of infinity. In conclusion, the author points to the impossibility of avoiding metaphysics in art.

Anselm Kiefer has been present on the international art scene for decades. He is ranked among the most outstanding contemporary artists. The significance of his art springs from both the variety and importance of the subjects he treats, in particular the question of the Holocaust, and the diversity of artistic media and originality of formal solutions he employs. His erudite oeuvre derives from German and world history, culture, Bible, Kabbalah, mythology, legends, literature, philosophy, and theories of science. The formula of my article was inspired by the observations on Kiefer’s art articulated in a monograph by Daniel Arasse. I apply elements of analytical and hermeneutic methods to indicate the numerous contexts in which the motif of ‘fall’ appears in Kiefer’s art. I also point to the possibility of various interpretations of this motif. I examine general, formal qualities of Kiefer’s oeuvre and analyze some chosen artworks he authored, e.g., Fallen Pictures, Icarus, Resurrexit, Winter Forest, The Breaking of the Vessels, and Starfall. The motif that comes to the fore in Kiefer’s art is primarily that of the Holocaust and of the possibility of representation ‘after Auschwitz.’ Referring to particular works of the artist, I highlight the issue of the continuation of the myth in the present in his art in order to show how the works in question derive from the antique, biblical and kabalistic traditions, simultaneously connecting these traditions to the drama of the history of the 20th century. By reference to Kiefer’s artworks already analyzed in Polish literature, as well as to those less known, I indicate the complexity of their inspiration and message, as well as the evolution of Anselm Kiefer’s artistic attitude observed during his career.

Since the beginning of their foundation, the Salesians have placed great emphasis on educating young people by developing their passions and interests. The theater has always been present in Salesian work. Today, there are still groups that put emphasis on this form of education. This refers to schools, oratories or student theaters. It is noteworthy that, despite the socio-cultural changes, there are passionate people who can help other people develop their skills and spirituality.

Ludvig van Beethoven, well-known in musical circles mainly due to his instrumental achievements, was indeed vividly interested in vocal-instrumental compositions. The focal point of his studies on the works of his predecessors, i.e. baroque and classicism masters, was the interrelation between the text and the score. The first Klangrede study was the oratorio entitled Christ on the Mount of Olives, Op.85, the libretto by F.X. Huber. However, neither the Vienna audience nor the composer himself were contented with it. Thorough changes (in 1804 and 1811) resulted in implementing numerous elements from the Fidelio opera but the work still remained unsatisfying.

The paper examines Jewish motifs in Józef Pankiewicz’s works. The artist created them in the 1880s in Warsaw, occupied then by the Russian Empire and inhabited mostly by Poles and Jews. Most of these pictures were published as woodcuts and autotypes in newspapers disseminating positivist ideology and social program. Until now, the researchers have focused on analyzing only the style of these pictures, treating them as a short phase on the way to later symbolist, truly modern Pankiewicz’s art. A close scrutiny of his works from the Warsaw period reveals a specific visual representation of Jewish figures. They are depicted as isolated from other people, covered by shadows, placed in the oppositional relation to the traditional symbols of Warsaw, such as the King Sigismund’s Column and the Mermaid Statue, as well as to Christian architecture. The author of the paper draws the conclusion that the tensions in Polish-Jewish relationships which increased in the 1880s, being rooted in the political and economic history of Warsaw and shaped by contemporary persecution of Jews in the Russian Empire, are visualized in Pankiewicz’s works.

The aim of the present paper is to examine the relations between the novels, published by François Guillaume Ducray-Duminil (1761–1819), and their melodramatic adaptations, w ith a particular emphasis being set on the works of René-Charles Guilbert de Pixerécourt (1773–1844). After comparing fragments of the novels with certain extracts of the melodramas, the article focuses on the similarities between the two sets of texts as well as on Ducray-Duminil’s attitude towards the fact that countless playwrights used to draw on his works in order to create their melodramas. The paper concludes with a short analysis of reasons why Ducray-Duminil’s novels were so popular amongst the dramatic writers of his times.

In this paper, the theoretical and critical reading of Radivoj Korać’s book (Tajna ljudskog bitka) is motivated by the personal interest of the recipient (S. Petrović). Namely, in this account and in the provocative and underexpressed standpoints of contemporary philosophers about the outlook of man and, thus, art, I will focus on the basic questions of creative existence. A special topic of the essay is the critical inquiry of philosophical ideas about man as a historical and dynamic being, an ever-open entity. The analysis will consider several important ideas. One of these suggests a negative attitude towards the principle of continuity of man and, therefore, rules out the presence of a teleological agent in man’s fabrications. Another presupposes a permanent affirmation of man’s stepping-out, his displacement outside the boundaries of „completedness“, thereby bringing the very meaning of history into question? This dilemma has once again become urgent due to the well-known fact of persistence of work of art (and art itself), due to its always-completedness and thereby its enduring in time; finally, due to the artwork’s decisive defiance against being reduced to something contingent.

The main subject of this paper is Adorno’s critique of the theory of technical reproduction formulated in Walter Benjamin’s celebrated essay „The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction”. In a series of letters exchanged between the two, Adorno criticized Benjamin’s „Brechtian” marxism, his positive attitude towards the new mass media and dissolution of auratic tradition, an undialectical approach in interpretation of newly developed utilitarian and mass-art, and destruction of autonomous art initiated by new technical media of reproduction. While Benjamin argued for emancipatory potential of photography and film, Adorno immanently criticized culture industry, commodity fetishism and ideological function of mass art.
