Poznań 2019, Adam Mickiewicz University Press, pp. 239–255. ISSN 1644-6763. DOI 10.14746/pt.2019.32.12.
This article shows the way of presenting the characters who represent print culture in science fiction cinema. All the printed artifacts, like literature, books and letters, are defined according to Marshall McLuhan’s media theory. The analysis is based mostly on the movie Her (dir. Spike Jonze, 2013) and discusses how SF movies adapt and transform the twentieth-century predictions concerning print as a medium. This approach allows us to avoid a simple interpretation of the problem, where books or print become merely a sign of civilization that has passed. Furthermore, McLuhan’s theory helps effectively reveal the complex motivations of the characters who are shaped by a specific medium.Kowalczyk Marcin, Człowiek kultury druku w świecie przyszłości – kino science fiction wobec teorii środków przekazu Marshalla McLuhana [Man of Print Culture in the Future World – Science Fiction Cinema and Marshall McLuhan’s Media Theory]. „Przestrzenie Teorii” 32.

Wymiary transfikcjonalności
Get PDFThe article Facets of Transfictionality delivers a concise analysis of the newly-introduced narratological concept of “transfictionality” (put forward by Richard Saint-Gelais in the early 2000s). The author discusses the phenomenon as emerging on the border between the text-centred poetics of classical narratology and the world-centred poetics of postclassical narratology by use of Jan-Noël Thon’s and Marie-Laure Ryan’s project of “media-conscious narratology”. Defined as such, transfictionality allows the contemporary phenomena of retelling or cross-over to be described without the necessity of reproducing fan-made concepts and terms of such ilk, and instead rooting them in established theoretical constructs, such as narrative metalepsis. Consequently, the article illustrates the postclassical theory of narrative and the theory of literature with examples more common to media studies, with the aim being to emphasise Ryan’s thesis that transmediality is only a specific case of transfictionality, and that the latter is a far older and better acknowledged concept what is generally understood as the theory of fiction. Moreover, the text follows up on Saint-Gelais’ inspirations derived from Umberto Eco’s cultural semiotics and proposes to introduce an Eco-inspired concept of “xeno-encyclopaedic competence” in order to determine a specific recipient’s competence that allows them to move across not only media or texts but also imaginary worlds, which consequently become their fictional habitats.The article Facets of Transfictionality delivers a concise analysis of the newly-introduced narratological concept of “transfictionality” (put forward by Richard Saint-Gelais in the early 2000s).

„Trudne” wiersze. Wokół lingwistycznej poezji kobiet
Get PDFThe article addresses the problem of absence of women’s poetry in the linguistic current of 20th-century Polish poetry. It analyses its causes, amongst which the pivotal role is played by the stereotypical vision of women’s poetry, deeply ingrained in general awareness. The vision in question does not admit “difficult” forms and thus places women’s poetic work outside the avant-garde tendencies, linguistic experiment and metareflection. The authoress calls for inclusion of the omitted or forgotten poetesses who play with language in their poems and she articulates the need to redefine our understanding of linguistic poetry.The article addresses the problem of absence of women’s poetry in the linguistic current of 20th-century Polish poetry.

Kilka uwag na temat komunikacji interpersonalnej w Ajschylosowym Agamemnonie
Get PDFThe presented paper considers the problem of misunderstanding between two people on the ancient stage. The author chose two dramatical interrelations in Agamemnon by Aeschylus. Each of these dialogues presents different incongruity between question or order and the response, which can be caused from one side in the pride, power, and fear, and suffering or weakness from the other. We should undertake also some details concerning the importance of silence during the dramatic conversation, sometimes neglected by the scholars. The participant (reader or spectator) of such passages may feel uncertain, if this is a sophisticated play of the author with him, or even a vestige of his interest in human psychology.The presented paper considers the problem of misunderstanding between two people on the ancient stage.

The aim of my study is to attempt a comparative analysis of the two most famous film adaptations of the bestselling novel by Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice. As research material, I chose the mini-series produced by the BBC in 1995, which was part of the then popular trend of heritage films (heritage cinema) and the feature film from 2005, directed by Joe Wright, which, in the opinion of film experts, was a completely new form of audiovisual presentation of Austen’s work. In the article, I focus only on interpreting the aesthetic aspects of both productions, which would indicate similarities and differences, thus showing numerous shifts of emphasis in the aesthetic layer of the newer version.Pilawska Roksana, Duma i uprzedzenie jak historia romantyczna.

A masterpiece of Japanese and world cinema, Akira Kurosawa’s Rashomon (1950) refers to a new model of narration in film, and broadens horizons in mid-20th-century film but also film in current imes. Rashomon set out new paths and fields of exploration in film art and began a new era in modern narration in moving pictures. This study re-evaluates Kurosawa’s work as an innovative, trans-national and trans-cultural approach to world cinema.Hendrykowski Marek, Kilka refleksji o Rashomonie [A few Reflections on Rashomon]. „Przestrzenie Teorii” 32.

The article focuses on topics related to literature, especially to the works of Anton Chekhov, in the latest film by Nuri Bilge Ceylan The Wild Pear Tree. Its main character, Sinan, is a young writer, while the film is set in the province of Çanakkale, where ancient Troy was located. The analysis of the picture shows that the director refers to the historicity of the myth of the Trojan War with distrust. Instead, Ceylan portrays a local community immersed in intellectual stagnation and creates his hero as an extremely unlikeable misanthropist, to whom literature cannot bring fulfillment. The character of his father, Idris, introduces another ancient motif to the film – the figure of Sisyphus. The relationship between father and son, which deepens in the finale, brings an unexpected note of optimism to the picture, which in its dramaturgy resembles Anton Chekhov’s literary worlds.Domalewski Adam, Portret młodego pisarza oraz nawiązania do twórczości Antona Czechowa w Dzikiej gruszy Nuriego Bilge Ceylana [Portrait of a Young Writer and References to European Literature in Nuri Bilge Ceylan’s The Wild Pear Tree]. „Przestrzenie Teorii” 32.

The author analyzes the figure of the cyborg in science fiction literature and film. The text begins by showing this kind of literary work in the theoretical field and presents it as an interactive discourse. The author describes the scientific roots of constructing a human-technical hybrid, emphasizing the ideological and political context of this research. In this approach, the cyborg appears as a participant in and also a hostage of the Cold War. Next, the author finds literary and film creations of cyborgs inspired by this political and military heritage. The article also presents alternative images of cyborgs co-creating a feminist and postcolonial discourse. They were also included in specific policies and strategies aimed at deconstructing concepts such as sex and gender, sexuality, race, nation, social class. The main thesis of the article is that as fictitious and real entities, cyborgs are prone to ideologization and burdened with the obligation to politicize. Therefore, when studying cyborgs in literature, film and comics, we must ask what ideologies and politicians they serve.Gajewska Grażyna, Cyborgi – literacko-filmowe figury dyskursu interaktywnego [Cyborgs – Literary and Film Figures of Interactive Discourse]. „Przestrzenie Teorii” 32.
