Fałszerze pieprzu Moniki Sznajderman w roli lektury uzupełniającej, czyli jeszcze jedna odsłona prawdy o XX wieku

Author(s): Agnieszka Kania / Language(s): Polish Issue: 13/2021

Knowledge about Polish-Jewish relations, especially during World War II and the Holocaust, is still insufficient in Polish society and is burdened with many stereotypes. Polish language education in its compulsory dimension does not allow to take up this difficult topic, so in secondary school it is worth to discuss Monika Sznajderman’s Fałszerze pieprzu. Historia rodzinna as supplementary book about memory and identity. Its overview should be carefully prepared and the students should be prepared for reception. The method suggested in the proposed didactic activities is primarily critical thinking. Thus interpreted, the literary work gives young people a chance to distance themselves from national myths about Polish-Jewish relations and to prepare them for conscious participation in social and cultural life.

Chrząstowska i stereotypy, czyli o reformie kształcenia literackiego, programach i podręcznikach

Author(s): Seweryna Wysłouch / Language(s): English Issue: 14/2021

The paper presents Professor Bożena Chrząstowska’s (1929-2020) hard scientific path as well as her combative nature which proved itself in her battle against school stereotypes. Bożena Chrząstowska insisted that at school, the status of literary work and its interpretation based in literary theory should be enhanced. She perceived a literary work within the broader context of the whole didactic process which aims at preparing students to participate in culture. According to Bożena Chrząstowska, this needs reforming literary education (abandoning literary history in favour of interpretation), rethinking the curricula, and introducing new concepts of schoolbooks.

Możliwości i ograniczenia stosowania wybranych strategii motywowania studentów w warsztacie pracy polonisty uniwersyteckiego

Author(s): Karolina Górniak-Prasnal / Language(s): Polish Issue: 14/2021

The article focuses on students motivation regarding the didactics of Polish Literature. The author recognizes possibilities and constraints of chosen motivation strategies, pointing out the specificity of Polish Literature as a field of study and the factors which determine the work with these students. Basing on her own didactic practices, the author proposes a few ideas of raising the level of motivation in the group of students, pursuing the virtuous cycle of learning, and improving their self-esteem. The text refers to different strategies of motivation based on the humanistic and constructivist paradigms and presents the advantages of applying the motivation-centred approach, in which the teacher reinforces the intrinsic motivation of students, respects their individual choices and, generally, make them the subjects of the whole learning process. The topic seems to be especially weighty in the context of return to stationary education after the coronavirus crisis.

„Otworzyć drzwi do świata”. Edukacyjna filozofia podstaw programowych w wybranych krajach Europy Zachodniej

Author(s): Witold Bobiński / Language(s): Polish Issue: 15/2022

The article presents several contemporary European solutions to the problem of mass, state-organized schooling and education, in terms of educational aims and general philosophy of teaching. A brief overview of the Norwegian, Finnish, Swedish, Irish and Scottish curricula shows that one can distinguish three fundamental tendencies in contemporary education, as far as highly developed, democratic countries are concerned. These tendencies are: supporting the core democratic values; crossing the borders of subject teaching in favor of holistic developing of competencies, attitudes and dispositions, and encouraging to activity and creativity in various fields of life. Gert Biesta defines this model as world-centered, we can also call it life centered – in contrast to the content-centered paradigm of polish curriculum. World-centered education creates the space of developing the key existential competencies like cognition, interpreting of different phenomena, building the self-identity and relations with others, active approach to the world. This is also the process of initiating and revealing the subjectivity of a human being.

Powinności kształcenia językowego w L1 a niektóre aspekty lingwistyki poststrukturalistycznej

Author(s): Jolanta Nocoń / Language(s): Polish Issue: 15/2022

The article is a part of the discussion on language education in L1 in a modern school. The vision presented in it is based on poststructuralist linguistic concepts, in which language is perceived in a non-systemic way, giving it a humanistic, anthropological subjective, and cognitive dimension. The author discusses three good practice proposals as examples that fit into the presented didactic concept: in the first, writing character profiles was considered a story that interprets oneself and the world, in the second dictionary-phraseological exercises were assigned the function of changing the perception of reality, the third is an attempt to create a methodology based on the achievements of glottodidactics with regard to listening skills in L1. They are distinguished by their openness to the changing extracurricular reality, to the problems of the present day, to the related educational challenges and the subject of education.

With this on mind she also points to the paths that can be taken during Polish language classes in a secondary school.

Zastygłe w niepokoju? O doświadczaniu czasu w opowieści polskich więźniarek lagrów i łagrów

Author(s): Agnieszka Kołodziejska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 16/2022

The Lager and Gulag experience is mainly known and discussed in the Polish school on the basis of male narratives (T. Borowski, G. Herling-Grudzinski). The article is based on long-overlooked female testimonies, which constitute extensive and necessary to take into account material of high source-informational as well as literary value. The author considers one element of a women’s camp experience, which is the sensation of time in a state of imprisonment: confinement in the confined and closely guarded space of a German concentration camp, a Soviet prison and a gulag located in the wilderness of the Russian North. She reflects on the individual and communal nature of the above experiences and their literary representation, situating them in light of the reflections of K. Jaspers, J. Leociak and psychiatrists dealing with post-camp trauma.

Antropoceniczne życie po życiu – żywe maszyny, syntetyczna biologia i koniec natury

Author(s): Michał Witek / Language(s): Polish Issue: 29/2021

The postulated arrival of the “Anthropocene era” and the “end of nature” widely discussed in humanities, as well as theoretical approaches such as nature-culture and techno-nature associated with this concept, open the door to redefining concepts such as “life”, “machine” or “biology”. This is visible both in the field of natural sciences, and transdisciplinary approaches such as synthetic biology as well as in experimental art. The purpose of this text is to look at the complex problem of “living machines” and “synthetic life” in the context of the speculative and critical potential of art and the postulated Anthropocene era in the works of Alexandra D. Ginsberg. The main problem is reflection on the vision of the role of “live machines” and “synthetic life” in the era of uncertainty and uncontrolled changes in the environment.

Humanistyka węglowa w kręgu energii kontrindustrialnych

Author(s): Marta Tomczok / Language(s): Polish Issue: 31/2022

The article presents the project of coal humanities, a multidisciplinary area of knowledge about coal, which takes into account the achievements in geology and mining, presented from the perspective of human-non-human relations, and located in energy and post-human studies. Against this background, the author first analyses the most common representations of coal in art and literature, related to industry, to show that in the mid-twentieth century, attempts were made to depart from them and create a critical reflection in Polish poetry and painting, which would be a reaction to the forced mining of coal, important for Polish economy and politics. Examples of counter-industrial representations of “green coal” are provided by the paintings of a miner from KWK “Moszczenica,” Ludwik Holesz, and the poet Bolesław Lubosz, born in Tarnowskie Góry. Both artists create visions of Carboniferous nature, try to revive coal and see something more than a raw material in it, e.g. a non-human being, a plant, and organic elements.

Nowy Eden. Wpływ ogrodnika i jego dzieła – ogroduna proces zmian klimatycznych

Author(s): Eliza Grzelak / Language(s): Polish Issue: 31/2022

On the 21st of May 2019 the Anthropocene Working Group has concluded that a new geological era in Earth’s history has begun—the Anthropocene. The author of the article has deduced that an interdisciplinary discourse regarding climate change should not omit human gardening activity. The Anthropocene is called an epoch of repression, short-sightedness and irreversible loss, which is shown in the work of many modern amateur gardeners. The author presents a vision of two gardens: one that has been made in a harmony of human and nature and one that is dominated solely by humans. In her article she contrasts the information from gardening guidebooks with the knowledge of amateur gardeners found in social media. The point of the article is to show the direction of modern gardening. By analysing selected texts, the author seeks an answer to the following question: are the gardeners, who see climate change, able to break out of their apathy and start to work for the environment or will they rather just continue doing what they are doing now?

When I Fall in Love with Machine.O tożsamości kulturowej Tajwańczykóww epoce postmediów, cyberfizycznej kultury przemysłowej i wojen technologicznych oraz roli, jaką odgrywa działalność artystyczna w jej wytwarzaniu

Author(s): Anna Gryszkiewicz / Language(s): Polish Issue: 31/2022

This article could be read as a multi-voice, dynamic and being-in-progress model of relations that connect (could be linked to) a choreographic clip of the Taiwanese dance group Huang Yi Studio +, the establishment of a new Daimler AG factory in Sindelfingen and a sudden acceleration of work on Comprehensive Agreement on Investment between China and the EU at the end of 2020. Considering all of these events, I ask the question: What is the cultural identity of Taiwanese in the era of post-media, cyber-physical industrial culture and technological wars, and what role does artistic activity play in its production.

Schreiben aus der Migrationserfahrung‘ – Zu narrativen Strategien und Identitätsmusternin den Texten polnisch(sprachig)er(E)Migrationsliteratur in Deutschland

Author(s): Eliza Szymańska / Language(s): German Issue: 32/2022

In the following article, several texts of Polish (e)migration literature in Germany are analysed in relation to the narrative strategies used by the authors and the patterns of identity presented in them. Narration is not perceived only as a lin- guistically-limited genre, but as a mode of organising individual and collective memory and determining one’s own identity. With the help of selected catego- ries (exoticisation, intercultural (double) mediation, alterisation, transcultural universalisation, transculturalisation), a wide range (of which particularism and universalism mark two ends) of possible ways of dealing with one’s own migrant status is presented. It is their autobiographical narration of identity that all the texts selected for the analysis have in common. The aim of this article is to show the different forms it can take.

Autofiktionale Generationenerzählungen in den neusten Romanen über postsowjetische Migration:Zu Sasha M. Salzmanns Im Menschen muss alles herrlich sein (2021), Lena Goreliks Wer wir sind (2021)und Dmitrij Kapitelmans Eine Formalie in Kiew (2021)

Author(s): Małgorzata Dubrowska,Anna Rutka / Language(s): German Issue: 32/2022

This essay explores three prose texts published in 2021 by representatives of the Russian-Ukrainian-Jewish post-migrant generation with the focus on conflicts with their parents’ generation, which has been problematised in those novels. Gorelik’s, Kapitelman’s and Salzmann’s autofictional family stories refer to their parents’ Soviet experiences, told and pictured from a child’s perspective, and examine their mutual alienation. In the diachronic axis of the generational narrative, attempts are made to recapitulate the Soviet legacy and family migration from the transnational per- spective of arrival. The synchronic dimension of the novels deals with complicated processes of self-empowerment and critical interference with the German society. By using various aesthetic means of satire and irony, episodic-discontinuous narration and a play of changing perspectives, the texts document the sovereign self-determina- tion and self-empowerment of the post-migrant authors in the German literary scene.

Siniša Kovačević’s The Conquest of the Homeland as a Serbian Story on the Post-war Migrations

Author(s): Sabina Giergiel / Language(s): Polish Issue: 32/2022

The paper’s aim is to pinpoint the popularity of Siniša Kovačević’s play Velika drama (Big Drama) in Serbia. In 2019 the play was published in a novel format as a family saga. It focuses on the Vučić family’s migration from remote and mountainous Montenegro to the Pannonian Basin. In this rather formulaic and idea-oriented text, Kovačević demonstrates that the post-war transfer of people is connected to the phenomenon of a “new human being” (who represents the traditional rural culture) arriving at Vojvodina, a region significantly better developed both economically and culturally. The article particularly concentrates on the picture of Montenegro and Vojvodina as presented in the novel. Kovačević’s method is to axiomatically modify these regions: Montenegro is the bulwark of old and authentic values, whereas Vojvodina signifies the other. This opposition is supplemented with the contradistinction of old age (associated with wisdom and tradition) and youth (identical with naivety and idealism).

European Green Deal: The Transformation of Consumer Behaviour and Business Marketing Communication as Opportunities to Increase Consumer Involvement in the Sorting of Waste in Latvia

Author(s): Kristine Blumfelde-Rutka / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2023

The European Green Deal is the European Union’s latest expression of its ambition to become a world leader in addressing climate change (Kleinberga, 2020). Adaptation to climate change (CCh) is a key priority of the European Union (EU), exemplified by the EU’s efforts to become“ the first climate-neutral continent” (European Union, 2019) in the world by 2050. This article aims to analyse opportunities to increase consumer involvement in the context of waste sorting and climate change in Latvia, based on theoretical knowledge about consumer behaviour and empirical data analysis, to develop recommendations for marketing communication and consumer behaviour in the context of climate change content for waste management companies. There is a necessity to understand how to increase consumer involvement in waste-sorting due to the increasing amount of waste both in Latvia and the rest of the world. The following research methods have been used: the monographic method, secondary data analysis, the discourse analysis/coding method, the graphical method, and the qualitative method – a focus group interview. The most significant barriers that discourage consumers from sorting waste are the lack of infrastructure, the lack of information on how to sort waste properly and waste’s environmental impact, as well as the complex system that allows for differences in waste-sorting between municipalities and even neighbourhoods in the same city. Recommendations were developed as a result of the research for waste management companies in terms of communication, NGOs on education, and information for consumers, businesses, and waste management companies.
