No full textOn 5 February 2024, Professor Jean Malaurie passed away at his home in Dieppe at the age of 101. Having refused to join the compulsory work service (STO – Service du travail obligatoire) of the Nazi occupant in 1943, he went into hiding, joining the Résistance movement, an act of recalcitrance which characterized him profoundly and which was to entitle him to military honours during his funeral. The ceremony took place at the Saint-Louis-des-Invalides Cathedral in Paris on 14 February 2024, followed by the military honours and eulogy pronounced by the French Minister of Higher Education and Research, Professor Sylvie Retailleau.
It is with emotion that the editorial board of Inter-Nord wishes him farewell, paying a last tribute to the President of honour of our journal which he had founded with historian Fernand Braudel at the CNRS in the 1960s. We are publishing in French and English the homily of Father Geoffroy de la Tousche, the final remarks by Jean Malaurie’s son Guillaume and the minister’s speech, as well as a homage published in Le Canard enchaîné and a letter of condolences by Mrs Audrey Azoulay, Director-General of UNESCO.
Inter-Nord 23 continues in the interdisciplinary and intersectorial vein which has been its imprint introduced by Jean Malaurie right from the start, trying to propose bilingual versions of texts as far as possible. The current issue contains a special section with three scientific research articles on Iceland, two of which were first presented at the annual Humanities conference of the University of Iceland in 2023. These texts are accompanied by graphic works of the Icelandic artist Thóra Sigurðardóttir. Many thanks to Thóra for letting us publish some of her intriguing artwork discussed in a stunning piece by the Icelandic poetess Sigurbjörg Thrastardóttir.
In the creative writing section, we are also publishing two pieces by the Quebecois author Monique Durand about the Faroe Islands and interviews with Alaskan author Nancy Lord and the journalist Olivera Tornau. Other contributions include a viewpoint signed by four UArctic Chairs, an original French research project and some reviews of Malaurie’s and other works
Inter-Nord
No full textInter-Nord 24 is largely dedicated to Alaska. On the front and back covers feature three Yup’ik masks brought back to Pennsylvania by Moravian missionaries in the early 20th century. They are now held in the collections of the Moravian Historical Society in Nazareth, PA, USA, to which we are grateful for granting permission to publish these images. The front cover also includes a photograph from a series taken by Bruce Jackson during his field trip with Jean Malaurie to Nome and its region in 1997. Many thanks to Bruce for letting us reprint several of his images.
The issue’s contributions dedicated to Alaska include three peer-reviewed scientific articles, two student research papers from the University of Vienna based on field work, introduced by Peter Schweitzer and Olga Povoroznyuk, and two interviews: one with Iñupiaq contemporary artist Aisa Warden conducted by Daniel Chartier and the other with Mrs Lyn Trodahl Chynoweth, daughter of a Moravian missionary who grew up at Nunapitsinghak, site of the Moravian Children’s Home on the Kwethluk, a tributary to the Kuskokwim river, conducted by Benjamin Ferguson, as well as polar readings offered by Muriel Brot.
Inter-Nord 24 also pays homage to British poet and anthropologist Tom Lowenstein who passed away in March 2025 in his 84th year. Tom was notably the author of the acclaimed volume Ancient Land: Sacred Whale (1993, republished 1999). We are grateful to his literary executors to have authorised us to republish two longer excerpts, accompanied by translations into French for which we would like to sincerely thank Professor Hélène Aji of the École normale supérieure in Paris. Hélène had translated these poems on the occasion of the international conference “Problèmes arctiques : environnement, sociétés et patrimoine/ Arctic problems: environment, societies and heritage” organised by Jean Malaurie and myself at the National Museum of Natural History in Paris in March 2007 during the Fourth International Polar Year. Tom was one of the invited speakers, contributing a paper about his then forthcoming history of Point Hope, Alaska, Ultimate Americans (University of Alaska Press, 2008) published in Inter-Nord 21 (2011, pp. 149-152). Tom has published a fascinating volume about his field work, The Structure of Days Out (2021) which has not received the attention it deserves so far. Farewell to the poet!
Inter-Nord 24 also features three other peer-reviewed scientific articles in the section entitled “Varia”, illustrating the fact that we are open to scientific papers on any topic in relation to the Arctic. It also contains a viewpoint. Many thanks to all contributors

Abstract
Introduction and purpose: Drug poisoning is one of the more common reasons for patients being hospitalized in toxicology wards. The wide availability and ease of obtaining a wide variety of drugs and supplements are the cause of adverse reactions associated with their use. Increasing life expectancy and emerging chronic diseases also require the use of sometimes many drugs to control people's health. This can lead to poly-pragmasy, which is an undesirable condition and leads to poisoning. The purpose of our work is to demonstrate the most common causes of drug poisoning considering the criterion of division according to ICD-10.
Brief description of the state of knowledge: Any preparation, drug, supplement can cause negative effects on the organism. This depends on the dose, improper use, or cross-reactions of the relevant substances. The study compiled statistics on the cause of hospitalization of drug-poisoned patients based on ICD-10. 5433 patients were included in the study.
Conclusions: Our work shows that the most common causes of hospitalization due to drug poisoning are those caused by antiepileptic drugs, sedative-hypnotics and antiparkinsonism medications. The data compiled in this article agree with scientific reports from different countries compiling the most common reason for hospitalization related to drug poisoning.

Summary:
Introduction and purpose: Psoriasis is a skin disease that develops following chronic inflammatory signaling and keratinocyte hyperproliferation. The pathogenesis of psoriasis is compound and not yet fully understood. Several studies concerning the gut microbiota composition and its role in disease pathogenesis recently demonstrated significant alterations among psoriatic patients. This study aims to highlight the latest scientific evidence regarding the gut microbiome alterations of psoriatic patients, as well as the state of knowledge in terms of microbiome-targeted therapies as promising preventive and therapeutic tools for psoriasis.
Brief description of the state of knowledge: The current state of knowledge indicates that the main causes of psoriasis may be genetic predisposition, as well as many immunological and environmental factors, including dysbiosis of the intestinal microflora. The article covers clinical and experimental studies which indicate that gut microbiota dysbiosis concerning diversity as well as composition of microbiome is the potential causal factor of psoriasis and the gut microbiota may serve as promising prevention/therapy target for psoriasis patients.
Conclusions: This review highlighted a strong link between psoriasis and the gut microbiota, with the purpose of adding new knowledge for discovering the relationship between the altered intestinal microbiota in psoriasis patients. Despite all of these interesting findings, there are a lot of limitations and challenges that future studies should face. More precise and greater studies need to be done to fully understand the potential of microbiota-aimed therapies.

Konieczne cechy utworu. Uwagi po 20 latach obowiązywania ustawy o prawie autorskim i prawach pokrewnych
No full textThis article focuses on the process of establishing and determining the essential elements of work as subject to copyright protection. This issue is considered as the most crucial challenge faced by the present day copyright law. When it comes to determining the creativity and individual character of a copyrightable work, an examination of judicial decisions and the theoretical analysis of the term ‘work’ only highlights the powerlessness of science and practice. The existing multitude of definitions of the object of copyright protection, especially relating to so called borderline cases, may be eliminated only after profound scientific research.The article emphasizes the potential benefits of expanding the research perspective by taking into account various fields of scientific study, including neuroaesthetics, and seeks to contribute to the discussion on the issue described above as well as to further research on the subject.W artykule przedstawiono nowe spojrzenie na centralny i najpoważniejszy problem, przed którym stoi dziś prawo autorskie, a jest nim stwierdzanie istnienia koniecznych cech utworu. Na tle krótkiej charakterystyki przedmiotu ochrony prawa autorskiego oraz koncepcji doktrynalnych i orzeczeń sądowych dotykających kwestii istnienia cechy „twórczości o indywidualnym charakterze”, zwrócono uwagę na bezsilność nauki i praktyki w zakresie definiowania przedmiotu ochrony prawa autorskiego. W artykule zaakcentowano potrzebę poszerzania perspektywy badawczej o dorobek innych nauk, w tym nie tylko takich, jak filozofia i psychologia, ale także o zdobycze rozwijającej się ostatnio dynamicznie nowej dyscypliny, jaką jest neuroestetyka. Artykuł w założeniu ma stanowić głos w dyskusji i punkt wyjścia do dalszych studiów nad tematem w kontekście poszukiwania rozwiązań problemu ustalania tzw. granicznego poziomu twórczości
