Archiwum kościoła św. Michała Archanioła w Michaliszkach (Białoruś) – los kolekcji na tle wydarzeń historycznych

Author(s): Raisa Zianiuk / Language(s): Polish Issue: 119/2022

In an institutional sense, there are no parish archives in Belarus acting as independent institutions that perform the function of collecting historical documentation, storing it in an appropriate manner and making it available to researchers. This is due to a number of factors: the suppression of monasteries and closure of churches in the 19th century, the several waves of nationalization of church property, and the persecution in the 20th century. Therefore, the discovery of a collection of documents in a church in the village of Mіkhalіshkі, which survived despite historical sociopolitical events, although not in its entirety, can be regarded as a unique event.In this article, an archive is understood as a collection of documents related to the history and activities of a church, parish and/or monastery and kept in the church. According to the preliminary arrangement and inventory created, the archive includes 41 folders, most of which consist of a single document (e.g., a record book or inventory). The article analyses the evolution of the documentary composition of the archive, characterizes the groups of available documents and determines their information potential

Dwór i zbiory Michała Pawlikowskiego w Medyce

Author(s): Bartosz Jakubowski / Language(s): Polish Issue: 2/2022

In 1809 Józef Benedykt Pawlikowski bought a landed estate in Medyka near Przemyśl from Wincenty Głogowski. Since then until 1939 Medyka remained in the hands of successive members of the Pawlikowski family, who made it their family hearth and main administrative centre of their large estate. Under the Pawlikowskis Medyka was not only a prosperous estate but also an important culture centre. The Medyka manor played an exceptional role between the wars, when it was a renowned literary centre and a painter’s atelier. Michał Pawlikowski (1887–1970), the last owner of Medyka, built a new manor between 1920 and 1927, where he ran a private publishing house called “Biblioteka Medycka” (The Medyka Library). The atmosphere of the place attracted representatives of the cultural elite of the period, famous politicians, outstanding scholars, army officers and clergy. The invaluable archival material and works of art accumulated in the manor reflected his archivist and collector’s passions. This paper presents Michał Pawlikowski as the last owner of the Medyka manor and also as an art collector and patron of the arts. The text discusses the development of the manor in Medyka with special attention paid to architectural achievements of particular members of the Pawlikowski family. The paper also describes at length the residence erected by Michał after the First World War, its architecture and the invaluable collections accumulated inside it, including the legacy of artist Artur Grottger and manuscripts of eminent Polish poets.

Cărți și periodice românești din Biblioteca „Petre Gârboviceanu” la Tulcea

Author(s): Lăcrămioara Manea / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 13/2022

Petre Gârboviceanu (1862-1934), an important personality for Romanian cultural and political life, was a pedagogue, teacher and director of the Normal Primary School for Boys in Bucharest from 1889 until the end of his life, politician, author, translator, preface writer and text editor. He was also active as a teacher in theological education, often dealing with certain religious issues in his speeches. At the beginning of 1929 he was honored at the Central Seminar in Bucharest for 41 years of activity, on this occasion the work Tribute to Petre Gârboviceanu (Bucharest, 1929) was published (Pl. II/1, 3). In his personal library, of approximately 10,000 volumes, P. Gârboviceanu collected books from his youth and donated manuscripts and valuable works to The Romanian Academy Library from an early age. In 1932, he inaugurated the Normal School library building in Bucharest, which was called the “Petre Gârboviceanu” Library, its core being his donation of over 5,000 volumes, as well as complete collections of Romanian periodicals. In a study published in 2004, signed by P. Grigoriu, it was stated that the inventory of the “Petre Gârboviceanu” Library reached over 20,000 volumes, but the collections were later dispersed to other institutions.In 1949, the Pedagogical School in Bucharest, the successor of the Normal School, donated the entire collections of the “Petre Gârboviceanu” Library to the Romanian Academy. In the archive of the Romanian Academy Library two documents were recently discovered, which shows that the delivery of the books was completed on November 21, 1949. At the same time, an inventory register of the “Petre Gârboviceanu” Library, of 113 pages, was also published in 2020, in which are noted 9,190 book titles, followed by 310 magazine titles of the former library. All of them are part of the Romanian Academy Library's heritage.Through the present study, we bring to attention several dozen modern Romanian books and old periodicals from the “Petre Gârboviceanu” Library, which are kept in the special collections of the Eco-Museum Research Institute “Gavrilă Simion” Tulcea. These copies, printed in the 19th century, come from the Library of the Romanian Academy through a transfer from 1979-1980. The publications are identified by three interrelated elements: the oval stamp «The “Petre Gârboviceanu” Library. Founded 1932», applied to the title pages; label «B. “P.G.”» with the quota and inventory numbers of the books, applied on the inside of the cover or on the spine; Book covers with gold stamping on the spine, “Bibl. P.G.” or “B.G.” (Pl. I/1-4).Regarding the books, 37 volumes of modern Romanian books were identified in the collections of Tulcea, which were part of the “Petre Gârboviceanu” Library. All bear the stamp of the library founded in 1932, the label «Bibl. “P.G.”», also the stamp of the Library of the Romanian Academy. There are situations in which the quota on the label «Bibl. “P. G.”» was cancelled, and the share of the book from the collections of the Romanian Academy Library was moved below. Among the various titles we mention: Vasile Alecsandri, The fountain of Blanduzia, Bucharest, 1884; Theodor Codrescu, Collection of various documents that can serve the history of the Romanian, vol. XXIV, Iasy, 1895; The history of the Romans, translator I. Fătu, vol. I, Galați, 1853 (Pl. III/1-3).A few volumes of periodicals are also kept in Tulcea, which bear the stamp or label of the “Petre Gârboviceanu” Library. These titles can be found in the inventory register kept at the Library of the Romanian Academy, to which we referred previously. There are newspapers, broadsheets or magazines from the 19th century, such as The Romanian Bee. Political and literary newspaper and The week. Village sheet (Pl. IV/3-4). The books and magazines from the library that bore his name, “Petre Gârboviceanu”, regardless of which collections are kept today, define both a great teacher, publicist and a politician who loves the country and the Romanian values.

Polskojęzyczne globusy doby nowopolskiej i ich krajowi wydawcy

Author(s): Małgorzata Taborska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 28/2021

Polish-language globes are didactic aids, but also valuable cartographic monuments and documents of the Polish language. They have been manufactured since the mid-19th century, initially in Bavaria’s Nuremberg and in Prague in the Czech Republic, and since the 1920s in our country. The production of globes is multi-stage and can be financed partially or entirely by sponsors and patrons. In addition to the products of the company C. Abel-Klinger Kunsthandlung, the first copies were financed by patriot booksellers: Jabłoński, Milikowski, Idzik and Hoesick. After the First World War, copies were financed by publishing companies: Zakłady Główczewskiego, Pomoc Szkolna, Nasz Sklep–Urania, Wydawnictwo Polskie, publishing companies from Katowice, and the mysterious Deutsher Verlag publishing house based in Warsaw and Poznań. Changes in printing technology significantly reduced their price, demand for them by schools and children and young people popularised them as teaching aids. Companies financing and popularising these Polish-language publications played an important role in the publishing of globes. To a large extent, these were companies associated with the production and distribution of teaching materials. In general, all companies discussed can be gathered in three groups: booksellers financing or co-financing the publication of Polish-language globes; publishers responsible for financing and publishing globes; publishers responsible for making maps.

Use of Technology to Reduce Medication Errors and Improve Patient Safety

Author(s): Marwa Almalki,Futon Alsehli,Mashael Khayyat / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2023

Medical errors have become one of the most common accidents that occur in the hospital. Also, it has become a concern for many patients and affects their confidence in the service provided to them. In fact, many studies have proven that these errors can be avoided by using information technology. According to healthcare providers today, using technology has shown great results in improving patient safety and reducing medical errors. This study aims to evaluate and quantify the impact of technology on medication errors and improve patient safety. The references that were used in the study provide evidence that the technology can reduce medical errors and improve patient safety. The research based on qualitative data was collected from scientific websites and an online survey targeting members of the public, health students, and healthcare providers. The results showed agreement with previous studies that technology can reduce medical errors. However, there were some negatives in the earlier studies and the results we reached about some disadvantages of using technology in hospitals.

Feeding the Algorithm? Strategies of Technosensation in Artistic Project Based on Bio-Parametrisation’s Techniques

Author(s): Ewelina Twardoch-Raś / Language(s): English Issue: 3/2022

The article investigates various kinds of the strategies of technosensation in artistic project based on bio-parametrisation’s techniques. The category of technosensation is in the article referred to the considerations of Luciana Parisi and Marie-Luise Angerer to define the relationship between body affectivity and computational systems (primarily in relation to automated decision-making systems and machine learning processes). The context for these considerations is the reflection on “technological redlining” as a strategy for racial, gender, and (dis)ability profiling of computational systems, which generate social exclusion, inequalities and oppressiveness. In the article, the author considers (with reference to the considerations of Parisi, Bernard Stiegler, Yuk Hui and Gabbrielle M. Johnson) to what extent the algorithmic biases are the result of automation, and to what extent they result from the absorption of uncertainty, randomness and technodiversity. Technosensation strategies are considered in relation to the artistic practices of Zach Blas, Maja Smrekar, Marija Griniuk and others, pointing to subversive, critical and affirmative variants of technological functionality and agency. The presented projects prove that the functionality of computational technologies is not bipolar, but it is developing as a spectrum of nuanced mechanisms, both in the area of oppressive-exclusionary systems and emancipatory strategies

Disability and (Dis)empowering Technologies: The Case of Blind Translators

Author(s): Wojciech Figiel / Language(s): English Issue: 3/2022

This paper is based on fifteen in-depth interviews with blind translators and interpreters from Poland. Due to the age-diverse sample of participants, three periods based on available assistive technologies have been isolated: the analogue period, the transitional period and the current, digital period. The paper discusses in detail challenges and opportunities faced by the interviewees working in each of these periods, with particular emphasis on accounts of analogue period and transition into digital technologies provided by three veteran translators.The data is analysed within the theoretical framework provided by Pierre Bourdieu’s theory of capitals. The results of the study suggest that there is a growing gap between the volumes of embodied and objectivised cultural capital indispensable for sighted and blind translators. The more technologically advanced the world of translators becomes, the more surplus technologies have to be mastered by the blind. And some of the digital tools which have become essential for translators are hardly accessible for the blind.In conclusion, the author argues that modern technologies, far from eliminating the need for additional volumes of cultural and social capital, have actually aggravated it. Unless digital translation tools and settings are made accessible blind and low sighted translators and interpreters will continue facing exclusion from the labour market. Moreover, looking at the experiences of the older generation of successful translators and interpreters with visual impairment, we can draw conclusions on what factors sup ort the inclusion of younger generations of blind translators and interpreters in the labour market.

O perspektywach rozwoju instalacji fotowoltaicznych na zabytkach nieruchomych

Author(s): Marcel KRZANOWSKI / Language(s): Polish Issue: 1/2022

The evolution of distributed generation involves advantages related to the reduction of gaseous emissions as well as numerous threats. Implementing photovoltaics (PV) on historic buildings is one of them. Legal frameworks in Poland are favorable to PV; however, the projets themselves are not always the best solutions for monumental objects. Considering the legal role of provincial and local government conservators, the paper demonstrates perspectives for the development of a relation between PV and historic buildings. Conservators face enormous challenges in reconciling social expectations related to climate change and the protection of cultural heritage.

Dawne fotografie dotyczące życia i twórczości Jana Matejki w zbiorach Archiwum Narodowego w Krakowie

Author(s): Bożena Lesiak-Przybył / Language(s): Polish Issue: 67/2022

The collection of the National Archives in Cracow contain 66 photographs related to Jan Matejko. They were taken in the period from 1860s till 1939, mostly by photographers from Cracow and Warsaw, but the authorship of some of them remains unknown. Due to their subject, the photographs may be divided into four groups: 1) presenting Jan Matejko (6 likenesses) and documenting his funeral (2); 2) photographs documenting the artist’s works (47 items); 3) photographs related to Jan Matejko’s house as a museum (7 photographs) and 4) photographs taken during Jan Matejko’s 100th birthday anniversary (4 photos). Most of the photographs, that is 47, have been donated. But the Archives also tried to purchase some key materials. This way 14 (or 15) photographies have been obtained. The provenance of 3 of the photographs remains unknown.The photographs gathered in the National Archives in Cracow create an interesting collection, which, although not very wide, contains some precious items (works lost or damaged during World War II), which are particularly important for the researchers interested in the artist’s life and activity. Especially on the grounds that every photograph related to Jan Matejko is of undeniable value.

Od drukowania rycin przez faksymilowanie starodruków do bartynotypii numizmatów, czyli o paskach i pracach Władysława Bartynowskiego

Author(s): Krystyna Pawłowska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 67/2022

Władysław Bartynowski was a famous Polish numismatist active in the second half of 19th century in Cracow. Apart from coins, his collection included also old historical graphics, prints and books. He worked as an antiquarian and publisher, and his key aim was to protect Polish cultural heritage and works of art representing his areas of interest. Therefore, he was not only collecting and trading, but also cataloguing, maintaining and reproducing prints, graphics , books and coins. Motivated by patriotic feelings, he used to take care of the safety of relics he received and the availability of copies to all interested parties. He was one of the first Polish makers of old prints facsimiles, which he called the likenesses. As an editor of „Wiadomości Archeologiczno-Numizmatyczne”, he tried to improve the method of reproduction of coins and medals on paper. In relations to that, he invented own method of hollow graphic reproduction of numismates on paper. These prints, called bartynotypes, were used mainly for cataloguing of the collection of count Andrzej Potocki. Unfortunately, the collection, like many other relics, was damaged or dispersed due to World Wars. Bartynowski’s reproductions remain the only relic of the lost works of numismatic, graphic and printing art, as well as the art of medals. He donated the greater part of the collection to the Czapski Muzeum he established together with the count Emeryk Hutten-Czapski and his wife.The paper on the Władysław Bartynowski’s publishing portfolio is based mostly on his family archive. It is one of the chapters of a planned book about the Bartynowski Family.

Modelowanie operacji informacyjnych z wykorzystaniem teorii sterowania refleksyjnego

Author(s): Andrzej Karaś / Language(s): Polish Issue: 24/2021

Modern societies are often referred to as information societies. Thanks to the development of the Internet, virtually every person on the globe can get the information they need. This possibility is both a disadvantage and an advantage. Information is increasingly used as another kind of weapon that can be used to achieve specific goals. However, it has long been used for military and political purposes through disinformation, propaganda and intelligence. The development of technology has only given information conflict a different form. Actions involved in information operations are aimed at exerting influence by the controlling entity on the controlled entity in order to perform an action previously assumed by the controlling entity. The purpose of this type of conflict is not to take over a given territory; they focus on the consciousness of a given society. Hence, it is necessary to consider the ways and possibilities of modelling and simulating strategic situations with incomplete knowledge, which are information operations. One of the approaches to modeling information operations is constituted by the theory of reflexive control, which at the same time describes the techniques of conducting them. The article presents the concept of reflexive control and the model built on its basis.

Japonica w Archiwaliach po Bronisławie Piłsudskim w Bibliotece PAU i PAN w Krakowie (9). Fujihiko Sekiba i jego przesyłka

Author(s): Alfred F. Majewicz / Language(s): Polish Issue: 65/2020

The present material constitutes the ninth installment of the series introducing Japanese documents preserved with Bronisław Piłsudski’s archives in the Academic Library of the Polish Academy of Sciences and Lettres (PAU) and Polish Academy of Sciences (PAN) in Cracow and includes photocopies of a letter in German (with its envelope indicating the addressee and the sender in Japanese, its decipherment transcript, and translation into Polish) dated , sent, together with an attached book, to Bronisław residing at that time in Tokyo by Dr. Fujihiko Sekiba, a renowned physician famous all over Japan, long-standing head of the Hokkaido Medical Association and a hospital (both founded by himself), but also medicine historian, anthropologist and one of the pioneers in Japanese ethnomedicine. The book of his own authorship was an extensive monograph on Ainu medicine studied also by Bronisław himself. The paper provides essential data concerning Sekiba’s biography and his legacy (especially, his scientific publications and the hospital still existing and considered one of the leading medical institutions in Hokkaido), and the book in question itself, with an appeal to make every effort possible to trace and find the copy of the book (possibly with some personal dedication) sent, but so far unidentified: Piłsudski, a dedicated collector of “things Ainu”, never easily parted with such items). The letter and the book mailed to Bronisław demonstrate how famous Piłsudski was in Japan as an Ainu researcher as early as 1906 (six years prior to the publication, in Cracow, of Materials for the Study of the Ainu Language and Folklore that secured for him the eternal reference in the annals of academic research worldwide. Mentioned have also been certain related publications on Ainu medicine by Piłsudski.
