Rzeź Ormian w dyskursie izraelskim
The article attempts to give a brief overview of the history of Israeli discourse on the Armenian Genocide, which still has not been officially recognised by the State of Israel. The main objective of the paper is to point out the key events and attitudes taken as part of the Israeli discourse that are – directly and indirectly – responsible for this situation. The problem is analysed in two major contexts – namely those of the official, Israeli Holocaust discourse and the foreign politics of the state, including the influence these two spheres had on the Armenian Genocide’s official status in the Israeli collective memory.The article attempts to give a brief overview of the history of Israeli discourse on the Armenian Genocide, which still has not been officially recognised by the State of Israel.

Hetman Żółkiewski i rok 1610 w tradycji romantycznej
The author looks into the reasons behind the infrequent mention of Hetman Żółkiewski and the Polish victory over Russia in 1610. To this end he analyses Russian (e.g. by Pushkin) and Polish texts (e.g. by Niemcewicz, Lelewel, Krasiński, Mickiewicz) which contain references to the so-called period of Great Sorrow. It is interesting to note that, compared to the strong presence of the Polish-Russian War of 1605–1612 in the Russian culture, Polish Romantics made scant references to these events. The explanation for this state of affairs seems to be the historiosophical strategy adopted by the Polish Romantics which required that one’s own country’s military achievements be ignored or made less relevant. The author also reconstructs the evolution of attitudes toward Hetman Żółkiewski in the Polish historical and literary tradition from the 17th to the 20th century.The author looks into the reasons behind the infrequent mention of Hetman Żółkiewski and the Polish victory over Russia in 1610.

Jak poznaniacy oceniają obecność germanizmów w swojej gwarze?
The article presented and interpreted results of the survey. More precisely – the answers given by respondents three questions, which were: “What do you think about the presence of German loanwords in the Poznań dialect? Is it a lot of them? Are they still alive?”. The survey covered 120 people from Poznań (and Wielkopolska, but at least 20 years of living in the city), representing three age groups. It turned out that most of the inhabitants of Poznań has a positive attitude towards the German loanwords present in their dialect. They note their recessive character of the cross-generational. They admit, however – and this regardless of age – that there are still a lot. Most of the respondents are aware of the limitations of pragmatic and communication accompanying the use of regional German loanwords. Today the influence German into Polish no longer raises such negative connotations as before, so the evaluation of regional German loanwords is more objective
Residuum oralne w średniopolskich utworach dedykacyjnych
The act of dedications played a fundamental role in oral societies. It was of equal importance to chirographic and typographic communities as an element of a work’s para-textual frame. In selected Polish dedication works from the 16th and the 17th centuries, the author of the article looks for an oral residuum which could be identified in the complex structure of this type of expression, rooted in rich tradition and shaped in the time of oral literature. In particular, the author of the article proves that even a characteristic feature of the written sub-code like punctuation was subordinated to the listening audience

Zapożyczenia tureckie w gwarach polskich
The analysis of the material included in the Dictionary of Polish Local Dialects (DPLD) to present their geographical scopes in Polish local dialects; to show the degree to which they have been adopted by local dialects – both from the formal and the semantic point of view; to show the way they function in the local dialects; to group the borrowings into semantic fields and to present the way they function within the separated meaning groups. The presented material shows that the degree of intensity of Russian borrowings in particular semantic fields is varied. The largest amount of borrowings are names defining a man with reference to his physical and psychological features, as well as other features related to physical appearance. A little smaller semantic group includes the names of plants and animals. The language adopted specific names, often characteristic of the folk culture, which were related to practical everyday life. Such borrowings refer to the names of tools, vessels and objects typical of the life of the village. It is on the basis of such everyday life on the border that practical Polish and East Slavic relations developed. In quite a natural way, those relations caused language interference which resulted in the borrowings that are known even now. The presented material shows that the degree of intensity of Russian borrowings in particular semantic fields is varied
