RECLAIMING QUEER TIME: QUEER TEMPORALITIES IN ALI SMITH\u27S "HOW TO BE BOTH"
No full textThis article examines the different manifestations of alternative temporalities in Ali Smith’s Goldsmiths Award novel How to be Both (2014). My argument is that the novel ‘queers’ understandings of time in two significant ways: by highlighting new possibilities of narrative structure that challenge linear conceptions of time and by questioning regulated notions of developmental temporalities in terms of progression from childhood to heteronormative adulthood. Hence, by drawing on the compelling framework of queer temporalities, the main goal of this article is to analyze the mechanisms deployed by Ali Smith to generate unprecedented configurations of queer time
Overcoming challenges posed by intertextuality: Translation strategies employed in Polish and German translations of Agatha Christie’s novel titles
No full textThe article investigates problems associated with the translation of selected Agatha Christie’s novel titles containing intertextual references to various literary works including but not limited to Shakespeare’s plays (By the Pricking of My Thumbs) and English nursery rhymes (A Pocket Full of Rye). Original English title versions with their respective Polish and German counterparts (with their English back translations) are compared and analysed (Hickory Dickory Dock – Entliczek pentliczek – Die Kleptomanin). Translation challenges involved in rendering titles encompassing intertextual elements are identified and deliberated on in more detail. Strategies employed by translators to render the titles are established (equivalence, literal translation, adaptation). The study shows that the strategy of adaptation is applied when it is not possible to replicate intertextuality in translation. Title versions rendered with the use of adaptation allude to other significant elements in the plot to maintain the titlenovel interface
„Być Andrzejem Małkowskim swoich czasów” – historia i dziedzictwo polskiego skautingu oraz problem wartości harcerskich w „Bratnim Słowie” w latach 1980–1981
No full textThe problem of the views of the Scouting Instructor Circles named after Andrzej Małkowski on the importance of tradition and history of the scouting movement and the ideological renewal of ZHP, raised in articles published in the periodical “Bratnie Słowo” in 1980-1981, has not yetbeen discussed in Polish science. The article aims to reconstruct this issue in the perspective of the general condition of the Polish Scouting Association in the early 1980s.Problem poglądów Kręgów Instruktorów Harcerskich im. Andrzeja Małkowskiego na temat znaczenia tradycji i historii ruchu harcerskiego oraz odnowy ideowej ZHP poruszanych w artykułach opublikowanych w czasopiśmie „Bratnie Słowo” w latach 1980-1981 nie był dotychczasomawiany w nauce polskiej. Artykuł stawia sobie za cel rekonstrukcję tego zagadnienia w perspektywie ogólnej kondycji Związku Harcerstwa Polskiego w początku lat 80. XX w
Zachowania przemocowe w kobiecej przestrzeni prywatnej: matka i córka (Jędza Elizy Orzeszkowej)
No full textThe article raises the problem of female tyranny in private space, in mother-daughter relationships. The author discusses and interprets these relationships as violent behavior of the mother (perpetrator) towards her daughter (victim), taking the form of emotional, psychological, and verbal domestic violence. A little-known novel Jędza by Eliza Orzeszkowa, written in 1889 and published in 1891 makes the basis for this discussion. The analyzes and interpretations carried out show that this kind of violence is registered in fiction, thus refuting stereotypes and patterns regarding female non-aggression, illustrating the face of the mother as a despot, a tormentor who, in close contact with her daughter, becomes an oppressor and harmer.The article raises the problem of female tyranny in private space, in mother-daughter relationships.

Používanie jazyka v období Tretej ríšea jeho presahy do neskorších období
No full textThis paper deals with the language of the Third Reich, its attributes, and use in public communication. Many of its attributes inspired other totalitarian languages that emerged later on, for example, the language of the dictatorship of the proletariat, which was gradually formed under the strong influence of the USSR mainly in Central European countries after WWII. The same properties define languages of dictatorship today. Typical attributes of totalitarian languages include hate speech targeting selected groups, their members, and supporters but also glorification of the ruling ideology, its creators, and implementers. The spread of hatred during the Third Reich was achieved primarily through the purposeful use of multimodal texts and authoritarian style, metaphors, neologisms, euphemisms, excessive emotionality, and religious concepts.This paper deals with the language of the Third Reich, its attributes, and use in public communication.

Свобода и воля как экзистенциальные ориентиры поэта (на материале творчества Марины Цветаевой)
No full textThe article presents a typology of various aspects of “freedom” and “will” in Marina Tsvetaeva’s works. The poet used the core meanings of the lexemes “freedom” and “will” which are reflecting their Russian features. However, it is essential to emphasize the negative connotation, particularly associated with the lexeme “freedom” in its sociopolitical context, and the practical absence of this connotation in the lexeme “will”. The external personality-oriented aspect manifests a much broader scale: “freedom” is most frequently employed to characterize close individuals or relationships with them, while “will” describes various aspects of human relationships and dependency on others. The internal personality-oriented aspect is linked to the perception of “freedom” and “will” as moral and psychological categories. Tsvetaeva dedicates a lot of space to reflections on internal freedom and the role of will in the creative process. The philosophical aspect is associated with understanding “freedom” as a regulated order sought by the poet in life, and the search for constraints on her own will. The metaphysical understanding of “freedom” and “will” in Tsvetaeva’s works is also a result of her creative experience. The everyday aspect opens up possibilities for various metaphors of “freedom” and “will”, where these concepts replace these concepts replace, among other things, space, financial condition, absence of obligations, and more.The article presents a typology of various aspects of “freedom” and “will” in Marina Tsvetaeva’s works.

Męskość zwielokrotniona. „Sprawdzanie samego siebie” jako mężczyzny w Dzienniku 1954 Leopolda Tyrmanda
No full textThe article concerns Leopold Tyrmand’s Diary 1954. The starting point for the interpretation is the initial fragment of the work, in which the writer declares his desire to ‘test himself’. In the proposed reading, it is assumed that this intention concerns, at a basic level, being a man, and the efforts to achieve and demonstrate masculinity to the reader significantly animate the narrative of the diary. Tyrmand models in a postmodern way, being a man in it, mixing various male patterns, and identifying with them within three scenarios that define masculinity in his eyes (courtly, military, and Jewish). Their ‘testing’ in the work results in a peculiar effect – they do not lead to the creation of the writer\u27s self-portrait which is to be announced, ‘testimony’, but a palimpsest in which he soon does not recognize himself.The article concerns Leopold Tyrmand’s Diary 1954.

Męskość w odwrocie. O kreacjach bohaterów w Prawieku i innych czasach Olgi Tokarczuk
No full textThis article discusses the depreciation of masculinity in the 20th century by using the example of the creation of male protagonists in Olga Tokarczuk’s novel Prawiek i inne czasy (Primeval and Other Times). The author introduces the issue by describing the civilisational and moral changes at the beginning of the 20th century. He points to the disruptions in the patriarchal world order that resulted from political events such as world wars and emancipation movements. The analyses demonstrate that Tokarczuk’s novel features many male characters who represent variant types of nonhegemonic masculinity. They withdraw from the social roles assigned to them by tradition. The researcher analyses examples of weak, mutilated, degenerated, and degenerate masculinity, often subordinated. Furthermore, he notes that the creations of the male protagonists in the novel under analysis are misandrist in their descriptive parts.
