OBSESIA „UȘILOR LĂUNTRICE”. MOTIVUL NON-LOCULUI
ÎN SCRIITURA CARCERALĂ A LUI PAUL GOMA

OBSESIA „UȘILOR LĂUNTRICE”. MOTIVUL NON-LOCULUI ÎN SCRIITURA CARCERALĂ A LUI PAUL GOMA

Author(s): Veronica Nanu / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 31/2014

In The obsession of the "inner doors": The motif of non-place in Paul Goma's prison writing there are highlighted the main theoretical ideas related to Heidegger's concept of "place-of-opening", which became the sine qua non condition of being. At the same time, the interpretation of correlative couple existential significance "here-there" is emphasized as a mark of the relation place / non-place. The impact of the phenomenon on writing Romanian dissident since 1945, is being studied as one of the few opportunities to escape from communist totalitarian space.The option to interpret the work of Paul Goma is the fact that his destiny is an emblematic case of dissent of the Romanian culture. In this context, the study of the novel "The obsessive decade", which describes the picture of a devourer of space, will outline the split image of the personality, driven by the passion of writing, caught in its path of transition from a world subject to terror, towards a possible "paradise" which remains always suspended.Beyond the theoretical components, text analysis is imperative of the novels Ostinato, Uşa noastră cea de toate zilele, and În cerc, where the narrative technique and logic of the included Third, the irreparable destruction of the identity is revealed. The physical confinement outlines a parabolic path, determined by the necessity of forcing the inner "doors" and the creation of others, by returning to his own inner self. The research will highlight dissent chimerical image re-entry into freedom, emphasizing, through interdisciplinary philosophical and literary analysis, the problem of non-place. Enclosed in the "interior" in search of that "dwell-in" the gomian ego endures a psychological space and time, building under the eyelids "o imago mundi".

PE URMELE UNUI SPECTACOL: UNIFORME DE GENERAL, DE MIRCEA ELIADE PE SCENELE DIN FRANȚA. CONVORBIRE CU REGIZORUL BENOÎT VITSE

Author(s): Cristina Scarlat / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 31/2014

The show Uniformes de général staged by Stéphane Verrue en 1984, en France, an adaptation by Benoît Vîtse of Mircea Eliad’s homonymous text, represents one of the successful examples of translating a literary text into the language of the theatre show. The interview with Benoît Vîtse is an almost archaeological investigation, one of reconstruction of this/his show and of the atmosphere inspired by the original text.

MAGIA NEAGRĂ A CONFESIUNII. MITURI, SIMBOLURI, COMPLEXE

MAGIA NEAGRĂ A CONFESIUNII. MITURI, SIMBOLURI, COMPLEXE

Author(s): Natasa Maxim / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 31/2014

Cette recherche envisage les symboles, les complexes pshychologiques ou les mythes qui se reflètent dans l'écriture confessive. Pour pouvoir être décrypté, le journal intime exige la participation du lecteur. Du point du vue de Mircea Mihăieş, l'intime nécessite l'adhésion au champ sémantique du mystère, de la protection, du secret, du camouflage, comme un ensemble plus large de l`intimisme: reflet d'un état d'esprit, d’une attitude, d’une façon d'être. Chaque écrit confessif est empreint des propres fantasmes de l’auteur, de ses angoisses existentielles, qu’il essaie d’exorciser par l’acte d’écrire. Eugen Simion voit le diariste comme un Œdipe, abandonné dans une forêt de symbols – peut-on ajouter. Cette recherche se propose à mettre en lumière les mythes de Narcis, Persée, Proteus, Sisyphe, les symboles du miroir, du labyrinthe, le complexe de Faust, le syndrome Villon dans le discours de la confession. Les symboles du cercle, d'égarement dans le labyrinthe, l'intersection se produisent d'ailleurs, dans le mythe négatif du journal intime. Le point central de cette magie noire de la confession reste le mythe du Créateur qui projette autour de soi l’ombre de son narcissisme afin de se sauver

DAS ENDE EINES „GOLDENEN TRAUMES“ UND DAS VERLORENE PARADIESGÄRTLEIN IN DÖBLING. ANNÄHERUNGEN AN FERDINAND VON SAARS NOVELLE DER „EXZELLENZHERR“

Author(s): Margarete Wagner / Language(s): German Issue: 1/2020

Ferdinand von Saar's novella Der „Exzellenzherr“ is a very compact text, depicting thecomplexity of the culture and history of the Austrian-Hungarian monarchy during the 19thcentury. This text hints to ancient myths and uses onomastic symbols from the Bible to showhow the idealistic visions of the protagonist, his „golden dream“ and his „paradise garden“ breakdown under the historical reality. Indirectly the novella also depicts the final period of theAustrian-Hungarian Empire. Although apparently it deals with love and marriage, the realintention of the novella is to depict the ethical and cultural history of the Austrian-Hungarianmonarchy.

La “Glose” de Richard Fishacre sur la distinction 26 du premier livre des “Sentences” de Pierre Lombard

Author(s): Fabio Gibiino / Language(s): French Issue: XXVl/2020

This study is devoted to a doctrinal and philological analysis of Richard Fishacre’s commentary on distinction 26 in Pierre Lombard’s first Book of Sentences. The subject of this distinction is the nature of the relationship in the Trinity: how, then, can one speak of a relationship in God while safeguarding its simplicity? To see how Fishacre has resolved this question, we have first supplied the background to this distinction. First, we looked at the doctrine of relationship according to St. Augustine, being the author who bequeathed to posterity the language and reflection to resolve objections against simplicity and divine immutability. Next, we have analysed the contributions of Peter Abelard and Gilbert de la Porrée, because, even within their limits, they marked a turning point in Trinitarian speculation with the use of dialectics and metaphysics. We have continued our study, dwelling on Fishacre’s Trinitarian reflection and how, having in mind the difficulty Gilbert de la Porrée found himself in, he proposed an identity relationship of the subsisting relation (quod est) to the essence (quo est). We concluded our study with the figure of Thomas Aquinas to show, in the ten years that separated them, not only the evolution of the literary genre of the commentary of the Sentences, but a more mature and rigorous elaboration of the Trinitarian doctrine. Finally, the influence exerted by Hugues de Saint-Cher on Fishacre led us to transcribe Hugues’ commentary and show the differences and autonomy of Fishacre. After having collated the 10 handwritten witnesses for the first book of Sentences, philological analysis enabled us firstly to note a common archetype and secondly to identify two branches of the textual tradition, one of which (Ω) proved to be closer to the archetype than the text of the Ψ model.

Kwestia kobieca w Polskiej Kronice Filmowej (postulaty badawcze w zarysie)

Kwestia kobieca w Polskiej Kronice Filmowej (postulaty badawcze w zarysie)

Author(s): Justyna Granatowska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 10/2021

In the women’s press, published at the end of the Polish People’s Republic, images of unmarried women were increasingly appearing. Despite the fact that press releases still largely portrayed the stereotypical perception of single women, significant changes were seen in the presentation of the image and position of unmarried women. It was particularly noticeable in the pages of Kobieta i Życie where more and more texts showed loneliness as a conscious choice of Polish women who decided to become independent, not from coercion or necessity. The article presents women’s opinions on the subject of single life, the reasons for which the decision was made to choose such a way of life and the way Polish society perceive unmarried women at the end of the Polish People’s Republic. The analysis was based on publications appearing in Kobieta i Życie. The authors of the article, results of their research also referred to press materials published in other women’s magazines of the Polish People’s Republic – Przyjaciółka and Zwierciadło.

Obraz społecznych ruchów kobiet na łamach prasy dla katoliczek w Polsce międzywojennej

Author(s): Ewa Maj / Language(s): Polish Issue: 11/2021

The purpose of the article was to show some aspects of women’s social movements and related press for Catholic women in the interwar Poland. Back then the religious press was an important part of publishing. Some of the papers were published directly for women. These periodicals were supporting national and religious values, were propagating the need to defend Poland and the Catholic faith against the immorality and cosmopolitism. The social movements of Polish Catholic women were strong, integrated and influenced among their members. They were showing the ideal of women in the country – both Polish-Catholic and the “Polish-Mother” – who is considered a secular apostole.

Odrazi muslimanske sakralne povijesti u slavonskoj književnosti 18. stoljeća: šejh Gaibija u pjesmi Pisma od uzetja turske Gradiške Antuna Ivanošića

Odrazi muslimanske sakralne povijesti u slavonskoj književnosti 18. stoljeća: šejh Gaibija u pjesmi Pisma od uzetja turske Gradiške Antuna Ivanošića

Author(s): Asim Zubčević / Language(s): Bosnian Issue: 1/2021

This article explores various questions about a poem written by Antun Ivanošić (1740–1800), a priest and poet from Slavonia, in which he glorifies the Habsburg victory over “the Turks” during the Dubica War (1788–1791). The author twice mentinos Mustafa Gaibija (Muṣṭafā Ghāʼibī or Ghaybī), a 17th century Muslim scholar, mystic and poet. Gaibija holds an important place in the sacral history of the Banja Luka region and of the Bosnian Muslims in general. His memory is also preserved in the folk traditions of the Catholics of Slavonia. The references to Gaibija in Ivanošić’s poem have previously passed unnoticed both in both Bosnian historiography and Croatian literary studies. This article highlights the significance of these references and thus contributes to a better understanding of Christian-Muslim relations on the borders of empires and to the representation of Muslims among the Southern Slavs of the 18th century.

VON DER (UN)MÖGLICHKEIT DER VERSÖHNUNG MIT DEM WELTGEIST IM WERK FRIEDRICH HEBBELS UND FRIEDRICH NIETZSCHES

VON DER (UN)MÖGLICHKEIT DER VERSÖHNUNG MIT DEM WELTGEIST IM WERK FRIEDRICH HEBBELS UND FRIEDRICH NIETZSCHES

Author(s): Marina M. Petrović Jülich / Language(s): German Issue: 72/2020

Das Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit ist es, mittels der Untersuchung der tragischen Auffassung Friedrich Hebbels und Friedrich Nietzsches die Gemeinsamkeiten in ihrem Gedankengut fest- zustellen und zu beweisen. Dazu habe ich mich der Methode des Vergleichs bedient, das heßt ich habe versucht, die Wechselbezihungen im Werk und Denken der beiden Autoren zu untersuchen. Hebbel, aber auch Nietzsche, haben sich oft in ihren Werken, aber auch in ihren Briefen und Tagebuchnotizen über das tragische Drama geäußert. Hebbel tat das desöfteren in Vorworten zu seinen Dramen und in unabhängigen Abhandlungen. Die Konzeption der beiden Dichter ist am engsten mit ihrer Weltanschauung verbunden.Im zweiten Teil dieses Beitrags hat die Autorin versucht, durch die Analyse einiger, in unter- schiedlichen Schaffensphasen Hebbels entstandenen Dramen seine Auffassung vom Tragischen zu verdeutlichen. Mit Hilfe der Einzelanalysen und durch die werkimanente Annäherungsver- suche unter Hervorhebung des tragischen Aspektes sollte klar gemacht werden, dass in den späteren Dramen des Autors das Versöhnungselement eine größere Rolle spielt, obwohl es oft unnatürlich wirkt. Beispiele dafür sind die Heiligen drei Könige in Herodes und Mariamne oder der Versöhnungsakt zwischen Vater und Sohn in Agnes Bernauer. Man kann annehmen, dass Hebbel bis heute in der internationalen germanistischen Forschung einen untergeordneten Forschungsgegenstand darstellt, dass darauf zurückzuführen ist, dass gerade die Unmöglichkeit der Versöhnung des Individuellen mit dem Weltgeist und die übertriebene Unnatürlichkeit dessen nicht nur den jugendlichen Lesenden zu fern von der Aktualität und den allgemein- menschlichen Bestrebungen erscheint.

AZERBAYCAN ŞİİR DİLİNDE ZAMAN KONSEPTİNİN SANATSAL FELSEFİ VE BİLİMSEL TEORİK MESELELERİ

Author(s): Farid İbrahimli / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 51/2021

The stylistic features of the concept of time in the Azerbaijani poetic language, the expressions of the time in text constructions in the expression of artistic philosophical thought, the issues of understanding time as a cognitive category in the process of artistic creativity have been studied. At all stages of the history of artistic thought - from ancient folklore to modern art - we encounter the stylistic and semantic possibilities of time in the aesthetic, emotional-expressive, figurative language layer of artistic thought. Observation of the means of expression of the concept of time on specific artistic examples, the study of functional stylistic possibilities of the means of expression of time, along with identifying aspects of time as a cognitive category, creates trends in the development of Azerbaijani poetry, ethnopsychological factors, cognitive-psychological development. As the direction of research is multifaceted, the directions of application of the obtained results are different, and these directions are not outside of life, nature and society. Categories such as time, space and motion carry the information burden of all spheres of concept and thought in the semantic context. In the process of transforming perception into a concept, the conceptual understanding of time is a separate direction in scientific creativity. In the process of scientific creativity, the understanding of the philosophical content of time plays a leading role, rather than the linguistic content of time. In fact, the perception of time as a cognitive category begins with the philosophical perception of time. The means of expression in the language layer of the time create conditions for its linguistic research. From this we can conclude that the study of time as a cognitive category is a more general issue, which includes the study of time in a philosophical and linguistic direction.

СТРУКТУРА КАНОНА НА ЈУТРЕЊУ НА ПРИМЕРУ "СЛУЖБЕ СВЕТОМ ПАТРИЈАРХУ ЈЕФРЕМУ"

Author(s): Đorđe Lazarević / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 73/2020

The paper shows the connection between the Biblical canticles and canons at orthros, the most important and most solemn part of this church service, through the example of The Service to Holy Patriarch Jefrem by the medieval poet, bishop Marko Pećki. The analysis of the structure of canon at orthros, a liturgical hymn that belongs to the corpus of old Serbian literature, indicates the possibilities of connecting the Biblical text with Serbian medieval texts and its influence on them. Connecting Biblical canticles with the hymns of canon is achieved through irmos, an introductory stanza inspired by the contents of the Holy Bible which links the events from the hagiography with the basic meaning of the Biblical text.

ОДБРАНА ПОЕЗИЈЕ: РУСКИ ФОРМАЛИЗАМ И НОВА КРИТИКА

ОДБРАНА ПОЕЗИЈЕ: РУСКИ ФОРМАЛИЗАМ И НОВА КРИТИКА

Author(s): Jovana Pavićević / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 73/2020

The paper aims to present the key concepts that two formalist schools of thought developed in order to defend poetry as a miracle of communication. Russian Formalism takes Shklovsky’s defamiliarization (остранение) as its key concept and the trans-sense language (zaum) of Russian Futurist poets as a basis for analysing what constitutes differentia specifica of poetry. The ideas of the Russian formalist school, through Roman Jakobson, spread first to Eastern Europe, and then to the United States of America, where they influenced a group of critics, who were already inspired by T.S. Eliot’s and I. A. Richards’ ideas on poetic language and communication, to develop a new critical methodology. The name “New Criticism” was supposed to indicate that this school of thought was about different approaches and new tendencies in criticism. As the paper demonstrates, the key representatives of New Criticism are particularly interested in exploring the function of poetry and of criticism as well as the nature of poetic imagination and language. In order to examine what the poem says as a poem, they developed the practice of close reading and focused on metaphor, paradox, and specific method by which a poet transforms his experience into a poem as autonomous features of poetic expression. The special terminology introduced by Russian Formalism and New Criticism, and the complex, ironic and intellectual language they used not only managed to throw light on what specific problems of the science of literature were, but also enabled a defence through poetry – a kind of resuscitation and refinement of non-literary reality.

THE DOUBLE VISION OF JOSEPH CONRAD: "HEART OF DARKNESS", A CONTRADICTION IN TERMS

THE DOUBLE VISION OF JOSEPH CONRAD: "HEART OF DARKNESS", A CONTRADICTION IN TERMS

Author(s): Mirko Ž. Šešlak / Language(s): English Issue: 73/2020

This article aims to explore the background of the dispute started by Chinua Achebe in his famous essay “An Image of Africa: Racism in Conrad’s Heart of Darkness”. The novel in ques- tion has become the subject of the dispute on whether it is deserving of being considered a great work of art. The reasons behind Achebe’s claim that it is not are the dehumanization of Africans found in various scenes throughout the novel, as well as the depiction of Africa itself as the barbaric and hostile other to civilized Europe. As in any such claim, while some support it, others find it faulty. There are those such as Achebe who would judge Conrad for the same reasons others, such as Bratlinger, Said, Mnthali, or Ngugi Wa Thiong’o, see him as the product of his time. This article will attempt to explore some of these claims and, if possible, determine the extent of their validity.

Komiks jako przykład kultury fanowskiej

Komiks jako przykład kultury fanowskiej

Author(s): Marcelina N. Zdenkowska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 04/2019

In this article I analyze the chosen examples of fan comics. In the first part of the article I describe the history of comics, how and by whom they were created. Then I show the comic’s role as part of Transmedia Storytelling. In the second part I introduce the term fan fiction and I describe the circumstances of the creation of this specific form of fan art. Moreover I write about the most important fan fiction theories. In the last part of the article I analyze 3 selected authors of comics who publish their works on social media platform Deviant Art. Also I describe their style, inspirations and references to original works. Fan comics are a very specific phenomenon. However the many possibilities given by this art is not used by the fans. There are no experiments with a form contrary to the fan fiction literature. On the other hand the selected comics are an exception. Maybe the authors are not very innovative. But the interesting thing is that they use humor and autobiographical themes in an unusual way.

Wampir na Dalekim Wschodzie. Manga i anime

Wampir na Dalekim Wschodzie. Manga i anime

Author(s): Patrycja Pichnicka-Trivedi / Language(s): Polish Issue: 03/2019

Vampire stories in the Far East are the example of memetic art. With the Vampire Figure, Far East adapted a whole range of western mems. In my article I focus on Japanese manga and anime. I choose these media, because they are most specific for Japanese culture. First I discuss the meaning the vampire narration has had and has nowadays in western culture, I analyse both bad vampire Figure and good vampire Figure. When Far East wanted to adapt vampire narration, it encountered the basic problem. The vampire figure in the West represented the Other, who was often associated with an Easter immigrant. That is why the East, adapting the vampire myth, had to develop special strategies: it could be a simple reversal (vampire represents the West), disregard of the ethnic dimension of the Otherness (focus on its sexual, gender and social dimension) or the shift of the border between ourness and otherness, so that the ourness compounds both East and West, and the otherness - the common enemy. I analyse each strategy. At the end I discuss the example of Kurt Wimmer’s Ultraviolet, American film inspired by the manga and anime aesthetics, to prove that the inspirations are reciprocated.

Kilka uwag o życiu i twórczości Jerzego Ręczyńskiego, autora poematu Dziewica Litwy Emilia Plater

Kilka uwag o życiu i twórczości Jerzego Ręczyńskiego, autora poematu Dziewica Litwy Emilia Plater

Author(s): Tamara Bairašauskaitė / Language(s): Polish Issue: 6/2020

The purpose of this study is a presentation of works of the Lithuanian nobleman Jerzy Ręczyński (1805–1899), a soldier of the 1830–1831 Uprising and, aft er its suppression, an émigré.

Perwersyjny wymiar świętości, czyli o jurodiwych i nie tylko...

Author(s): Izabela Lis-Wielgosz / Language(s): Polish Issue: 3/2019

In the article, the phenomenon of yurodstvo has been recalled, which is a characteristic and perhaps the brightest realization of the Eastern Christian ideal of sanctity as a clear projection of its irrational or even specifically perverse potential. The examples which are quoted in the considerations and selected from a rich literary corpus (Old Russian, Old Bulgarian and Old Serbian), are colourful manifestations of sanctity in Eastern Christian terms, which can be defined only in a specific religious or socio-cultural context. For that reason, it was considered that this specially designed sanctity should be interpreted in the key of negative theology which is typical of the Eastern (Orthodox) Christianity. Also known as apophatic, this theology assumes the impossibility of a positive knowledge of God, which entails a specific helplessness of reason towards the phenomenon that exceeds all applicable established standards. In the discussed case, the reflection intentionally goes beyond the limits of exemplification of the sainted yurodstvo, since it also covers other types of sanctity, recognized and perpetuated in the Eastern Christian (including Church Slavonic) tradition, and shows the proximity of all projections of the so-called parenetic sanctity along with the relationship between the yurodstvo itself and eremitism and Monasticism. In this wide exemplification range, it seems justified that the incarnated sanctity of the yurodivy, a hermit or a monk, revealing itself in the socio-cultural reality in an unusual, incomprehensible or even perverse way, is an emanation of the numinous mystery which escapes the rational orders. This emanation should be, therefore, regarded as a phenomenon going beyond the boundaries of intellectual cognition, socio-cultural sphere, or a fixed standard.
