Slova v soukromých dopisech. Lexikografická sonda

Author(s): Olga Martincová,Zdeňka Hladká / Language(s): Czech

Attention of scholars from the field of humanities has been for a long time paid to private personal letters. This applies especially to historians, to scholars dealing with literature and more recently to sociologists, psychologists etc. Private correspondence is also a subject of interest in the field of linguistic research. It is a material attractive from many viewpoints, relating to well-known contrasts of epistolary style [Skwarcz yńska 1975 et al.], namely to contrasts such as a) spoken vs. written (relating e.g.to the contrast of standard vs. non-.standard); b) dialogue – monologue; c) presence vs. absence of ambitions to include features of the style of fiction (which applies also to letters of common people); d) individual ways of expression vs. following conventions of letter writing. An electronic Corpus of Private Correspondence was created at the Department of Czech Language, Faculty of Arts, Masaryk University (ÚČJ FF MU). Serving the purpose of linguistic research, this corpus contains 2,000 letters written by hand and 1,000 e-mails from the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries written by 3,000 common people, especially by young people; the corpus contains dialectological, sociological and partly grammatical tags. The section focused on letters written by hand in 2006 became a separate part of the Czech National Corpus (KSK-dopisy; http://ucnk.ff.cuni.cz). Full versions of gathered texts, including photo copies of the original letters, adding also 2,000 sms, were published inthe work Čeština v současné soukromé korespondenci. Dopisy, e-maily, SMS [Hladk á et al. 2005].

A Comparison of 20th Century Theories of Style (in the Context of Czech and British Scholarly Discourses)

A Comparison of 20th Century Theories of Style (in the Context of Czech and British Scholarly Discourses)

Author(s): Michal Křístek / Language(s): English

The book is focused on a comparison of theoretical approaches to issues of style, in the context of Czech and Anglo-Saxon (especially British) scholarly discourses. The aim was to show and compare different methodological approaches based on different theoretical bases – for this reason, two different cultural contexts were selected, attention being paid also to mutual contacts within these contexts. The 20th century was chosen intentionally, as the period during which, in both of the respective contexts, stylistics was constituted as a modern scholarly discipline rooted in the fields of linguistics and literary theory. The book is aimed at members of academic communities, at teachers as well as at students, especially at those focusing on Czech and English studies.

Rozbor filmu

Author(s): Radomir D. Kokeš / Language(s): Czech

The aim is to offer a comprehensive textbook focused on formal analysis of stylistic, narrative, and thematic arrangement of a film work. The publication should be useful for students of film studies and audio-visual culture, as well as for wide audiences (academics, film reviewers, and film fans). The book structure follows a bottom-up explanation model which starts with searching for a research problem and the thesis formulation and goes on to questions related to the text outline and the structure of argumentation. The final part of the book offers more complex film case analyses rooted in the perspective of the previous chapters.

INTERFERENŢE CULTURALE ROMÂNO-MAGHIARE

INTERFERENŢE CULTURALE ROMÂNO-MAGHIARE

Author(s): Imola Katalin Nagy / Language(s): Romanian

This volume focuses on the problem of literary and cultural paraellisms between the Romanian and the Hungarian cultural and literary phenomena. Beyond some general aspects related to the topic, the first part is dedicated to the problem of intercultural communication between the Romanian and the Hungarian cultural milieu in the inter-war period, with a special emphasis on the issue of Transylvanianism. We try to identify the reasons for which this ideology failed to become one of the main facilitators of open communication between the Romanian and the Hungarian cultures. We also hint at some contemporary echoes of Transylvanianism and the changes that have occurred over the past few decades. We wanted to make a presentation of the main regional ideologies of the Transylvanian cultural and spiritual life in the inter-war period. The Hungarians’ Transylvanianism and the Romanians’ creative localism or ardelenism alike offered a wide range of key concepts and ideas that shaped/and were shaped by the cultural context of the time. Both regionalisms – Romanian and Hungarian – shared many of these concepts and ideas, although they had never really sustained an open and efficient communication, due to a series of causes. The shifts that occurred in the self-defining strategies, the communication breakdowns that characterized the relationships between the two cultural milieus and intellectual circles, the identity discourses that can be spotted in the media of that time, and the movement known as Transylvanianism are all approached with the purpose of identifying the causes that hindered (and perhaps still hinder) real and efficient communication between Romanians and Hungarians. We also attempt to offer an overview of the effects of the cultural and spiritual flourishing that marked the turn-of-the-century Vienna on the Romanian and the Hungarian cultural discourse. We focus on the most important phenomena that the Romanian and the Hungarian cultural discourses borrowed from the Viennese modernity at the turn of the century. Among these, one can cite the types of writers, literary topics (such as the theme of the Family, of strong women, the emergence of the human psyche in literature, the figure of the estranged, etc.). The second part of the volume is dedicated to the most important thematic parallelisms between the Hungarian and the Romanian prose writings, by analysing topics and/or motives like war, womanhood, wealth, freedom and the symbolism of the mountain, etc.

Periferno u hrvatskom jeziku, kulturi i društvu / Peryferie w języku chorwackim, kulturze i społeczeństwie

Author(s): / Language(s): English,Croatian,Polish

The volume "Peripheries in the Croatian Language, Culture and Society" is the second colllection of articles, which are the result of the meeting at the international scientific conference that took place in Katowice in 2019. The first and most extensive chapter of the volume, titled "Croatian Standard Language and Dialects" consists of articles in which the peripheries and peripherality appear most often in relation to the marginal position of certain linguistic phenomena in the Croatian standard language and in regional variants. In the second part, titled "Croatian Language in Teaching and Translation", there are texts in which the peripheries and peripherality are related to the glottodidactics of the Croatian language and traductology. The third chapter of the volume, "Croatian Language Abroad", covers works in which the peripheries and peripherality are closest to their original, geographical meaning, as they refer to a place remote from the center, which in this particular case is Croatia. The diachronic perspective in the study of the peripheries and peripherality is visible in the texts collected in the fourth chapter of the volume, titled "Croatian Language and Croatian Writing over the centuries". The last chapter, "Cultural and Sociological Contexts of the Periphery", presents the results of research that differ from purely linguistic issues, but the peripheries and peripherality analyzed in them fit into the main theme of the project.

Lexicon of Spiritual Powers in the Nag Hammadi “Library” in the Light of the Texts of Ritual Power

Author(s): Przemysław Piwowarczyk / Language(s): English

The lexicon contains a complete list of spiritual beings (“powers”) mentioned by name in Nag Hammadi and related texts. They are presented against a broad background of ritual magic texts: “magical” papyri, defixiones, lamellae, and amulets of precious and semi-precious stones. The whole is also supplemented by extracts from patristic literature. The main part of the Lexicon is preceded by an introduction, in which the fundamental originality of the demonology of the Nag Hammadi texts is demonstrated. The book is addressed primarily to researchers interested in late antique Christianity, especially Gnosticism. Specialists in late antique magic will also benefit from it, as the lexicon juxtaposes two source corpora, which are generally considered separately. It is the first comprehensive undertaking of its kind in the world literature on the subject.

Prawo interpretacyjne

Author(s): Paulina Konca / Language(s): Polish

Although the interpretation of legal rules has a direct impact on the content of judicial decisions, law of interpretation has not yet been the subject of a monographic study in Polish legal theory. The author describes the status of interpretative directives in various legal cultures (e.g. Poland, Spain, Australia, USA, Great Britain, Ireland and Latin America) and analyses the problems caused by enacting interpretative directives. She puts forward proposals for the creation of the law of interpretation and analyses the nature of interpretative directives. An important advantage of the work is the reference to a wide range of literature and jurisprudence from many jurisdictions.

Communicating with Generation Z. The Development of Pragmatic Competence of Advanced Polish Users of English

Author(s): Iwona Dronia / Language(s): English

This book intends to shed some light on the problem of second language communication from both cross-cultural and cross-generational angles and to diagnose communication patterns, opinions, and beliefs on the nature of L2 learning visible among the Generation Z group. Particular emphasis is placed on the development of pragmatic competence (pragmatic production and pragmatic comprehension). In order to assess the ILP development, it has been decided not only to evaluate the respondents’ language level but also their problems in communication. Diagnosing sociopragmatic competence as well as pragmalinguistic strategies implemented while performing three speech acts, that is, requesting, reacting to a compliment, and apologizing, allows one to indicate problematic areas and suggest some teaching implications, that in turn, will enable to introduce necessary changes and forms of work on the further development of English.

Рецепция позднего Льва Толстого в польской прессе

Author(s): Joanna Piotrowska / Language(s): Russian

The monograph presents a new approach to research surrounding the alter-cultural reception of a writer. The methodological proposals are presented with reference to the reception of Leo Tolstoy. The study focuses on two significant events: his 80th birthday (1908) and his departure from Yasnaya Polyana (1910). A comparative analysis of Polish and foreign publications enabled the author to track the transformations that took place in the way Tolstoy’s image was constructed, and at the same time to better understand the specific nature of press reception mechanisms.

Jednostki języka w systemie i w tekście 4

Author(s): / Language(s): Russian,Polish

The set of problems engaged in the texts which are presented in the monograph reflects the multifariousness of research perspectives in modern Slavic linguistics with reference to both traditional and novel methodological approaches. The authors’ focus has to do with the problems of the description of the units of the Polish, Russian, Ukrainian, Czech and Croatian languages at the particular levels of these languages. The linguistic units are examined not only as elements of a system but also as components (which are varied genre-wise) of early and modern texts. Apart from the analyses which draw from structuralist traditions there are also ones in which linguistic phenomena are considered in a broad social-political-cultural context. The publication is a collection of pieces which are devoted both to one language as well as comparative studies: Polish-Russian, Polish-Czech, Polish-Croatian, Russian-Czech ones. There are also texts which are devoted to the problems of translatology. The broad range of problems which are engaged by the authors from Poland and beyond enables the reader to familiarise himself or herself with the areas and trends of work conducted by the particular academic centres. We hope that it will also become a source of inspiration for further research endeavours.

Naród: wspólnota wyobrażona

Author(s): Artur Jabłoński / Language(s): Polish

The book analyses and attempts to reconstruct the notion of the Kashubian nation as imagined by Jan Rompski (1913-1969) – writer, national activist and ethnographer. Rompski, founder of the Zrzeszińce political and literary group, envisioned the Kashubian identity as a collection of features from an open set encompassing in particular: territory, language, culture, and civic sense. Intertwined with the discussion of Rompski’s views are modern Kashubian identity discourses that serve to confront his narrative with ways in which Kashubian identity is imagined today.
