The Composition of the „Epoch of Intertextuality”—Symphony No. 3 Circus Maximus by John Corigliano

The Composition of the „Epoch of Intertextuality”—Symphony No. 3 Circus Maximus by John Corigliano

Author(s): Katarzyna Bartos / Language(s): English Issue: 01 (32)/2017

As many researchers claim, we live in the era of intertextual works. The analysis of the 3rd Symphony “Circus Maximus” by the American composer John Corigliano definitely proves this statement. The symphony, finished in 2004, had been commissioned by Jerry Junkin – the conductor of the Wind Ensemble and Director of Bands at UT Austin. It is said to be an example of program music. Corigliano’s main purpose was to show connections between the past (Rome Empire) and the contemporary world. The composer notices that animalisation and coerciveness are characteristics of people living in these two eras. The composition consists of eight movements and is written for wind ensemble and percussion. The aim of this article is to show intertextual connotations and references present in the composition, such as: allusions, stylization, reminiscences, and memory of genre. In order to achieve this aim, the author used the Mieczysław Tomaszewski’s systematics of music-in-music existence. Moreover, similarities to Gustav Mahler and Charles Ives’ compositions are shown.

Musical sources survived in the Collection of the Auschwitz-Birkenau State Museum

Musical sources survived in the Collection of the Auschwitz-Birkenau State Museum

Author(s): Hubert Szczęśniak / Language(s): English Issue: 01 (32)/2017

The article presents the conclusion of the research conducted by the author in the collection of the State Museum of Auschwitz-Birkenau, former German Nazi concentration and extermination camp. The sources are fully featured and described for the first time. The article focuses on showing a complicated post-war history of the camp items connected with music (musical instruments, printings, manuscripts, handwritten copies of instrumental books), which are auxiliary sources to reconstruct the repertoire of chapels in KL Auschwitz-Birkenau. The main aim of the article is to also discuss the preserved repertoire. In the last chapter, the author presents a short characteristics of original works composed by musicians and composers in slavery with a short analysis of all of them. Presented musical printings are a reflection of tastes of the German public in the 1930s as well as an example of ridiculous anthropological establishments of Nazi music scientists and no ability to implement it on listeners practice. In addition, the work contains annexes: musical instruments, original works composed during camp existence, and musical printings – a list of music materials which survived in the collection of the Auschwitz-Birkenau State Museum.

Commander in Opera: Contexts

Commander in Opera: Contexts

Author(s): Jadwiga Jęcz / Language(s): English Issue: 04 (39)/2018

The aim of this article is to analyse the presence of Commander in Mozart’s Don Giovanni as well as show the references to other opera depictions regarding the myth of Don Juan. Commander, also known as the Stone Guest, is an animate tombstone figure, which appears in every classic-based version of the story about Don Juan Tenorio (Don Giovanni) in order to summon a rogue to conversion; when he fails to do so, he drags him to hell. The spectacular character of the final scene turned out to serve as an inspiration for numerous opera makers, from Mozart to Rimsky-Korsakov (Mozart and Salieri). This theme, which has not been the subject of research before, is definitely worth exploring.

Katolickie księgi metrykalne diecezji koszalińsko-kołobrzeskiej

Katolickie księgi metrykalne diecezji koszalińsko-kołobrzeskiej

Author(s): Tadeusz Ceynowa / Language(s): Polish Issue: 113/2020

In recent years, record books have been the subject of research not only for scientists but also for unprofessional genealogists. The Archive of the Koszalin-Kolobrzeg (Kołobrzeg) Diocese was established in 2003. The task of the staff was to take over from the parish archives the documentation created before 1945. The collection of 215 items of Catholic record books was extracted from the archives. They come from 39 Catholic parishes. After proper protection and development, they are now available in digital form to interested researchers. The catalog presented in the article contains the state of preservation and the enormous cognitive value of Catholic record books collected in the Koszalin archive.

Göç, Sağlık, Pandemi

Göç, Sağlık, Pandemi

Author(s): Yaprak Civelek,Nihan Bozok / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 2/2020

Dünya Sağlık Örgütü’nün 2020 yılının Mart ayında bir pandemiye dönüştüğünü (WHO, 2020) bildirdiği Kovid-19 hastalığı, salgın hastalıkların çok hızlı ilerleyen ve dönüşen ekonomik, politik, tıbbi olaylar olduğunu açıkça ortaya koydu. Yaşamakta olduğumuz pandemi, gün be gün yeni toplumsal meseleleri düğümleyip çözerek varlığını devam ettiriyor. Neredeyse tüm dünyada, 2020 Mart’ında ve takip eden bir iki ayda ülke sınırlarının kapatılması, karantina, insanlar arası mesafe alma ve hijyen önlemleri ile salgın kontrol altına alınmaya çalışıldı. Bu erken dönem önlemler, ilk bakışta, toplumsal eşitsizliklerle karakterize olan yaşamlarımızı dönüştürebilecek potansiyeli taşıyor gibi görünüyordu. Çünkü sürüp giden dünya sistemi, küreselleşme, tüketim, günlük yaşam ve alışkanlıklar kesintiye uğruyordu. Bruno Latour’un 2020 Mart ayında söylediği üzere küreselleşmenin ani sekteye uğrayışı belki bir devrim değildi ama sistemin piksel piksel çözülmesini beraberinde getiriyordu (2020). Yine Kovid-19 paniğinin dünya çapında yüksek düzeyde olduğu bu başlangıç günlerinde, Slavoj Žižek, “ya güçlü olanın hayatta kalma ilkesinin en vahşi mantığını kabul edeceğiz ya da küresel koordinasyon ve işbirliğiyle yeni bir komünizm icat edecek ve onu uygulamayı seçeceğiz” diye yazmıştı (2020).

During the Pandemic, the World Bank estimations suggested that remittances globally would fall about 20 per cent. The live results show mixed reactions and IMF reports show significant resilience in some corridors. This is in line with our earlier studies and predictions. Regulations and restrictions keep remittances costs high and particularly higher in some corridors involving poorer countries. There are already calls to reduce the costs and make sending money home easier and attractive. In this issue of Remittances Review, Fernando César Costa Xavier discusses the terminology of irregular remittances with a particular reference to the Venezuelan immigrants’ money sending practices. Sena Kimm Gnangnon shows the effect of remittances inflows on public finance by examining the effect of remittances inflows on fiscal space using a sample of 109 receiving countries over the period 1980-2015. The last paper by Rodolfo García Zamora and Selene Gaspar Olvera shows that Mexican migrants’ remittances from the US had been suffering the effects of COVID-19 in April 2020.

Inkunabuły dawnej biblioteki gimnazjalnej w Szczecinie − próba odtworzenia zasobu

Inkunabuły dawnej biblioteki gimnazjalnej w Szczecinie − próba odtworzenia zasobu

Author(s): Agata Michalska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 02/2020

The article describes the fate of the 15 th century collection of books from the Library of the Marian Gymnasium (Marienstiftsgymnasium) in Szczecin until its dispersion. The school functioned under that name in the years 1869–1945, although its beginning is connected to the princely Gymnasium, active from 1544 and localized in the neighbourhood of the Marian Church. A church libraria, which existed since the Middle Ages, soon after opening the school became also its library. Most of the information of the collection is available from the 1780 systematic catalogue, compiled by the rector and librarian of the then Academic Gymnasium, David Friedrich Ebert. The next catalogue, prepared by Johann Jakob Sell in 1816, encompassed the collection after the merger of the Gymnasium and the Lyceum (1805). In the 1840s a six-volume catalogue was ready, now partially available in the State Archive in Szczecin. Information concerning the preserved exemplars is provided by the published catalogues and the IBP registers in the National Library of Poland. The article contains a list of incunables held in the early 20th century in the former Library of the Gymnasium and gives their present location. The majority of the 50 preserved exemplars are housed in Książnica Pomorska in Szczecin (24), the remaining ones in the university libraries in Poznań (11), Warsaw (6), and Toruń (3), two in the National Library of Poland, one in the Museum of Cieszyn Silesia in Cieszyn, and probably three in the Staatsbibliothek in Berlin. The restored collection was characterized thematically and typographically.

Apparatus Sigillorum – nieznane źródło do sfragistyki miejskiej Pomorza Zachodniego. Autorstwo, czas i okoliczności powstania

Author(s): Łukasz Koremba / Language(s): Polish Issue: 01/2020

The purpose of the article is presentation of an unknown collection of copies of the municipal seals Apparatus Sigillorum Pomeraniae et Rugiae Civitatum and an attempt to establish authorship, time, and circumstances of its origin. The work survived among the remnants of the so called Ostens Library, where it came in 1773. Brief notes made on its cover suggest that it originates from the collection of Matthäus Heinrich Liebherr. The analysis of the aesthetic of the executed copies allows a supposition that there were several drawers and the work could be completed by the successive owners. The content of the dorsal notes implies that the author used the seals from the collections of Pomeranian scholars belonging to the society Collectores Historiae et Juris Patrii. It is likely that the activity of this society inspired the compilation of the catalogue of the Pomeranian towns’ seals.

Dimitry Kochenov, Citizenship, Cambridge, MA, 2019, 321 pages – review article on the monograph

Author(s): Piotr Uhma / Language(s): English Issue: 32 (4)/2020

The article reviews the newest monograph of professor D. Kochenov on the critical analysis of the institution of citizenship. The main argument of the book consists in the injustice reinforced globally by the institution of citizenship from the perspective of the rights of an individual. The review refers to the issues discussed in the monograph concerning citizenship as a legal relation between an individual and the state, civil rights and obligations in a critical perspective. The author of the review underlines the significance of critical depiction rarely found in the Polish literature. However, he indicates possible areas for polemics with the reviewed monograph, in particular from the perspective of consular law. Polemic notes do not undermine the significance of this work as an important voice in the analysis of international law from the perspective of the rights of an individual.
