Stan badań nad kobietami w miastach późnośredniowiecznych na ziemiach polskich

Stan badań nad kobietami w miastach późnośredniowiecznych na ziemiach polskich

Author(s): Piotr Łozowski / Language(s): Polish Issue: 1/2015

The article contains a review of Polish scientific literature concerning the history of women in the towns in Polish lands in the late Middle Ages. The article fulfils two main objectives: to present the state of development and directions of the analyses, and to outline new research possibilities, especially the ones offered by urban judicial records. The present scientific output of Polish medievalists proves that they are not too much interested in the role of women in the urban communities. In addition to just a few articles that deal with that problem seriously (briefly presenting many spheres of how women functioned in towns), there is a group of studies that treat the subject in a more sophisticated way. At present, the question best analysed is the legal situation of female inhabitants of towns and the problems taking place in the marital relations; the two things are closely related. The question of the professional life of women in the form of their participation in the guilds and retail trade has also been touched on. A lot of space has been devoted to the religious life of townswomen expressed in numerous pilgrimages and donations to ecclesiastical institutions. Undoubtedly, the least investigated sphere is the economic activities of women such as their participation in the credit market, the real estate turnover and commerce.The basic statistical analyses of the material that has been available in the judicial books of Warsaw, Cracow and Wąwolnica has proved their enormous research value. The urban sources (depending on the size of the town in question) offer to researchers hundreds or even thousands of mentions and records that are testimony of women’s participation in various spheres of urban life. Therefore, it is becoming possible to get an insight not only into the women’s activities in credit and real estate markets, but also into the meanders of their family life (inheritance and the like), lawsuits concerning unpaid debts and links with the criminal world. Regrettably, the urban books are still rarely explored and in most cases the quantitative methods are not used.

Opieka nad nieletnimi w rodzinach szlacheckich w Koronie w XVII wieku. Zarys problematyki i perspektywy badawcze

Author(s): Jacek Pielas / Language(s): Polish Issue: 1/2015

The article outlines the problems and research prospects of one of the most common legal institution that was typical of the old-Polish gentry families – the guardianship of minors, which has not been researched in the historical literature so far. The author reminds that in the ancient Polish law there were four ways of establishing the guardianship of minors, which were called: paternal, natural, official and autocratic. Each one of the four might commence only when the previous one had ceased. The author presents the most important findings made by law historians and underlines that they treat with the practical functioning of the guardianship in the reality of the 17th-century gentry of the Crown only superficially. We might familiarise with that practice thanks to other than normative sources, massive in character, namely the old-Polish last wills. In addition to establishing the guardianship, they contain many hints on how to educate and bring up minors.Undoubtedly, the most interesting question is what the guardians were actually doing. And here the essential question is whether their guardianship was good enough, whether they took care of the child (upkeep, upbringing, education) and of the child’s property. One of the objectives of the author of this article will be to present the most common activities undertaken by guardians, that is to say the ‘model’ behaviour of guardians. At the same time – wherever it is possible – it is worth attempting to present the reaction of the children to their guardians’ actions. In this context, there appears a fundamental problem of the scale and kinds of the abuses committed by the guardians, first of all concerning the minors’ land properties, including delaying the people they were in charge of entering into marriage in order to extend the period of their running their land property. An exceptionally important function of the institution of guardianship in the life of the gentry family combined with the research possibilities included in the 17th-century sources offer optimistic prospects for a comprehensive study, which would present the guardianship in gentry families and facilitate a better understanding of how the gentry family functioned in the Crown in the modern times.

Badania nad rodziną w miastach zaboru pruskiego w XIX i na początku XX wieku. Stan obecny i perspektywy badawcze

Author(s): Agnieszka Zielińska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 1/2015

The article deals with the problem of demographic changes that take place in thefamilies living in towns of the Prussian partition in the 19th century and at the beginningof the 20th. The most important populational parameters have been presented; on the basisof these parameters it is possible to observe trends and the directions of changes, whichare part of a much wider, pan-European process of demographic transformation. Theresearch has been carried out on the basis of the information concerning a few towns ofthe Prussian partition (Toruń, Poznań, Gdańsk, Elbląg, Starogard, Chojnice, Chełmża).A special attention has been paid to a decreasing age of newlyweds, disappearing barriersfor mixed (interfaith) marriages, loosening of social and professional requirements, andweakening of the territorial barrier while choosing the spouse. The fact worth noticing isthat the interval between the day of birth and the day of baptism was longer than before.Other facts that are of interest are: a decrease of the rate of birth/mortality, as well asof the coefficient of births and deaths at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. Anothersphere that has been researched is the value of infant mortality, quite high in the 19thcentury and slowly diminishing afterwards. A combination of civilisational processes,mental changes of human beings and changes in their customs had a decisive impact onthe shape and size of the family. It was the beginning of essential transformations, whichare still taking place now and keep influencing the demographic situation of the population.The article also contains a proposal of further demographic research on the Jewishfamily in the towns of the Prussian partition, because that subject is often omitted. In theend, some new directions of research have been suggested and an introductory literaturehas been given, too.

Mobilność i migracje chłopów do miast polskich doby preindustrialnej. Z badań nad mikroregionem krakowskim

Mobilność i migracje chłopów do miast polskich doby preindustrialnej. Z badań nad mikroregionem krakowskim

Author(s): Mateusz Wyżga / Language(s): Polish Issue: 2/2015

The migrations of peasants to Polish towns, which are considered inside migrations, in the pre-industrial era were intensive and similar to the ones in the countries of Western Europe. The sources prove the existence of permanent multi-generational migration networks that ensured a better start of a new life in towns for peasants, and an input of reliable workforce for towns. The migration processes slowed down in the 18th century, which was the result of the intensification of secondary serfdom, closing of villages, an economic decline of Polish towns at the expense of the gentry and an overall economic depression. All that is clearly visible in Cracow, where all the municipal registers and a significant part of birth and death certificates have survived. It turns out that towns influenced the increase of peasant territorial and spatial mobility, generated an increase of peasants’ enterprise, helped them to differentiate towards activities not related to agriculture, and weakened the feudal relations.

Wielkość rodziny i gospodarstwa domowego w miastach południowej Małopolski w XVII i XVIII wieku

Wielkość rodziny i gospodarstwa domowego w miastach południowej Małopolski w XVII i XVIII wieku

Author(s): Piotr Miodunka / Language(s): Polish Issue: 2/2015

The article presents the question of an average size of the biological family, the household, and an average population of a house in smaller towns of Southern Lesser Poland, and from 1772 the western part of Galicia. The presented problems have been researched on the basis of narrative sources (municipal court’s registers) and quantitative sources (inventories, military conscription lists, parish registers). The author has also used the method of family reconstruction (Wojnicz); and confirmed that the desired model of the family was a simple family, which is visible in young married couples’ aspirations for independence, as well as older parents’ aspirations for providing sufficient income to survive after making over their real property. A biological family was usually composed of 4 people. Not much bigger were the Old Polish burgher households, which were composed of 4.5–5 people on average in Christian families and about four in the Jewish ones. What is more, those households were clearly smaller than the peasant ones, but the houses in smaller towns more frequently than in the country were occupied by more than one household. Servants were common in households and lodgers in houses.

Perspektywy badań nad populacją i rodziną województwa kijowskiego w XVIII wieku

Perspektywy badań nad populacją i rodziną województwa kijowskiego w XVIII wieku

Author(s): Konrad Rzemieniecki / Language(s): Polish Issue: 2/2015

The article assesses the prospects of the research on the population and family of the Kiev Voivodeship in the 18th century. The article has been based on the analysis of archival existing materials, which potentially might become a basis for such research (birth and death registers of various religions, censuses, state tax tables). The diversity and quantity of the research material makes it possible to work out detailed analytical methods. The second half of the century is especially rich in sources, and the condition of the existing materials allows a detailed analysis of the state and dynamics of changes in the population of the whole region at several points of time. Prospects of the research on the structure and size of the family and household of various social and ethnic groups seem promising. Among other things the materials concerning two censuses carried out by the Polish and Russian authorities have survived. In spite of the territorial and chronological incompatibility of the materials they offer many possibilities to analyse most of the potential research questions, especially the ones concerning the second half of the century.

Etnografia i eksperymenty artystyczne. O powstawaniu nowych pól poznawczych we współczesnej antropologii

Author(s): Tomasz Rakowski / Language(s): Polish Issue: 1/2017

To what extent is it possible, in the humanities, to frame research in terms of pre-textual and non-textual ways of reading? Following the textual turn, which is mostly associated with semiotics as well as descriptive and interpretive orientations, ethnography is returning to more source-based and immediate endeavours. This is, however, a return to very demanding and uncertain methods, which are only now being examined, unearthed and tested. They emerged against the backdrop of the ontological turn in contemporary anthropology and the practical and action-based turn in the social sciences. In the research team that I direct, we are developing a definition of a creative ethnography that has the potential to create openings; although linked to the anthropology of art, it is also able to propose new languages and ways of grasping cultural facts. Thus I aim to outline a possible path for anthropology, where its unique ‘developmental cycle’ parallels the ontological turn and the action-based turn. A particularly important role in this development falls to the artistic experiment as a way of creating a new field of research and of reaching towards unforeseeable research situations.

W sprawie polityczności polskiej humanistyki

Author(s): Michał Kuziak / Language(s): Polish Issue: 1/2017

How political are the humanities in Poland today? Kuziak examines the possibilities and limitations of this question in the discourse of humanities scholars. He focuses on the formula ‘reading Poland’ that reappears in these discourses, but also on projects of possible otherness and rescue history. The humanities’ political nature is shown to legitimize scholarly discourses in that it connects them to history and society.

Naukowiec czy artysta? Polskie interpretacje poglądów Marshalla McLuhana

Naukowiec czy artysta? Polskie interpretacje poglądów Marshalla McLuhana

Author(s): Kalina Kukiełko / Language(s): Polish Issue: 03/2013

The main aim of this article is to present interpretations of Marshall McLuhan’s views made by Polish scholars and commentators. In Poland, long‐term discussion concerning McLuhan’s hypotheses has been reduced mainly to the question of their “artistic” or “scientific” character. Among Polish polemicists, the controversial Canadian has found scrupulous critics as well as ardent followers. Both were astonished by his extraordinary erudition and practically boundless areas of interests. However, there is still no certainty as regards whether we should see McLuhan’s texts as strict scientific publications or rather as a kind of attractive artistic commentary.

Osztály és társadalomszerkezet a magyar szociológiában

Osztály és társadalomszerkezet a magyar szociológiában

Author(s): Márk Áron Éber,Ágnes Gagyi / Language(s): Hungarian Issue: 21/2014

The article looks at research on social structure in Hungarian sociology from the perspective of class analysis. It follows the paradigms and institutional context of Hungarian sociology, as they have been formed by Hungary’s double dependence from Soviet and Western cores throughout the second part of the 20th century, and demonstrates that, as a result of those changes, the concept of class has gone absent from social research from the early 1970’s on. While thinking towards a possible reconstruction of 20th century Hungarian social formation in a class sensitive perspective embedded in the dynamics of the capitalist world system, we point at a typical effect of global hierarchies upon the description of local social structure: the tendency to identify a „double structure” in local society. „Doubling” places various characteristics of local society on two different onthological levels – Western vs. Eastern, future vs. past. We argue that in order to conceive local social formation as inherent part of an integrated, synchronic global history, this internalized effect of global hierarchies needs to be transcended.

Finspongský rukopis Jana Ámose Komenského – kontroverze a protichůdnosti kolem jeho tvorby

Finspongský rukopis Jana Ámose Komenského – kontroverze a protichůdnosti kolem jeho tvorby

Author(s): Lubomir Hampl / Language(s): Czech Issue: 1/2018

The Author of the present paper introduces a Polish reader to an anonymous manuscript discovered in a Swedish library in Norrköping. Author (originally, the matter was connected with Ludwik de Geer's private book collections from the library in his castle in Finspong). After a graphology analysis had been done by Arild Jägerskogh, it turned out that the described Finspongish manuscript, actually, has its author, the famous „teacher of the nations”, Jan Amos Komenský. It was the manuscript of the seventeenth century which is entitled De Rerum humanarum Emendatione CONSULTATIO CATHOLICA ad Genus Humanum. Ante alios vero Ad Eruditos Europae, consisting of an introduction Europae lumina – in Czech Světlům Evropy – (of 18 pages) and the so called, in Czech, Dedikace Nejmocnější trojici severských království v Evropě (of 2 pages). The manuscript was found by Blanka Karlsson, a Czech researcher of Komenský's works, at the end of the XXth century.

Мултиекипност и синергизъм при работата на учителя с деца и младежи със специфични потребности

Author(s): Monika Bogdanova / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 2/2016

The author argues that there is need for professional development of teachers working with children and youth with specific needs, not only because of the peculiarities of the work, but also because of the multidisciplinary field. The emphasis is put on the importance of supervision, personal experience and self-reflection, participation in professional groups and professional guilds.

From Common Meal via Acéphale to Unsacrificeable

From Common Meal via Acéphale to Unsacrificeable

Author(s): Bernard Harbaš / Language(s): English Issue: 15/2018

In this article, the author introduces several approaches to the concept of sacrifice. It begins with the classic sociological approach of Émile Durkheim who in sacrifice remarks forming, strengthening and maintaining of a community. In his anthropological conception, Georges Bataille demonstrates that the production and accumulation of wealth are wrong moral principles and suggests a new moral practice of giving oneself without asking anything in return, which represents the only way to realize a society of equals. Such a society, in which there would be no leader or a singular sovereignty, he calls Acéphale. For Jean-Luc Nancy, sacrifice is impossible. Starting from a standpoint that the Being is nothing and that there is nothing except this worldly plurality, Nancy considers sacrifice impossible since there is no higher principle for which the sacrifice would be performed. Beside the standpoints of the above-mentioned theoreticians, this article also offers a theory of discipline and sacrifice for achieving a socially expected perfect appearance. In all the mentioned theories, non-classic dimension of sacrifice is demonstrated. In them sacrifice is performed as activity for achieving social unity, greater equality, socially expected appearance and it is also presented as something impossible.

SMELLING THE GHETTO

Smells in the Warsaw Ghetto According to Ruben Ben Shem's (Feldschu) Diary

Author(s): Victoria Nizan / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2017

This article deals with allusions to smells and odours in Ruben Ben Shem's diary, an extensive journal that was written in the Warsaw ghetto from November 1940 until April 1943. The paper attempts to define the nature of the gap between allusions to smells related to by the diary writer in contrast to our understanding of the information acquired through reading the diary. The difficulty of the attempt relates to elusiveness of odours which causes them to be difficult to imagine, especially if one wasn't exposed to them beforehand. (Katz 1997: 4)
