No full textNiniejszy tekst jest sprawozdaniem z konferencji Niekończący się Michael Ende – sylwetka, syg-natura, strategie fantastyczne, która odbyła się 8 listopada 2019 roku w Krakowie. Autorka przedstawia w nim wyznaczone przez organizatorów cele, z których najważniejszym wydaje się przypomnienie postaci oraz twórczości tego wybitnego, a jednocześnie nieco zapomnianego nad Wisłą klasyka literatury fantastycznej.

The economic and fiscal impacts of Hurricane Sandy in New Jersey, a macroeconomic analysis
No full textThis report estimates the macroeconomic and fiscal impacts of Hurricane Sandy on the economy of New Jersey using the R/ECON™ forecasting model of the state’s economy. The model consists of more than 250 quarterly time-series equations and 30 employment sectors.The analysis takes into account both the economic losses resulting from the hurricane and the offsetting positive economic impacts associated with recovery and reconstruction spending in the months and years following the storm.However, the estimates of impacts depend upon the restoration expenditures actually being made. If the funds for these restoration and recovery expenditures are not made available, the offsetting positive impacts to the economy will not occur and the New Jersey economy will be significantly damaged. See Section 3 for estimates of the negative impacts if restoration expenditures are not made.This report was published as Issue Paper Number 34, January 2013, in Rutgers Regional Report
Apocalypse According to the Literary Vision of Michael D. O’Brien
No full textThe article focuses on Michael D. O’Brien’s novel trilogy consisting of Father Elijah: An Apocalypse, Sophia House and Elijah in Jerusalem, inspired by the biblical books, particularly the Book of Revelation. The analytical-interpretive and comparative method applied in the article reveal the scope and purpose of parallelism used by the author in relation to biblical characters, events and situations. This parallelism has been introduced in contemporary novels set in the twentieth century, especially at the dawn of the twenty-first century. Biblical references, plots, allusions and, above all, the biblical vision of the world and humans become a gauge that allows diagnosing modern reality and the rapid changes that occur in it. The recognition and full understanding of ideas included in the work are possible only after reading the biblical content inscribed in the novel. It forms the basis of the assessment of a model of the world in which spiritual reality permeates the visible realm, with a simultaneous occurrence of psychomachy. From this perspective, the warning that the writer addresses to his contemporaries becomes apparent.Artykuł dotyczy powieściowej trylogii Michaela D. O’Briena: Father Elijah: An Apocalypse, Sophia House i Elijah in Jerusalem, inspirowanej księgami biblijnymi, zwłaszcza Apokalipsą św. Jana. Wykorzystana metoda analityczno-interpretacyjna oraz porównawcza odsłania zakres i cel zastosowanego przez autora paralelizmu względem postaci, wydarzeń i sytuacji biblijnych, wprowadzonego do powieści współczesnych, których akcja rozgrywa się w wieku dwudziestym, a szczególnie u progu wieku dwudziestego pierwszego. Biblijne nawiązania, wątki, aluzje, a przede wszystkim biblijna wizja świata i człowieka stają się probierzem pozwalającym dokonać diagnozy współczesnej rzeczywistości oraz zachodzących w niej gwałtownie zmian. Rozpoznanie oraz pełne zrozumienie wpisanych w utwór idei okazuje się możliwe tylko pod warunkiem odczytania wpisanych w powieści treści biblijnych. W oparciu o nie oceniony zostaje wykreowany model świata, w którym rzeczywistość duchowa przenika sferę widzialną i w którym nieustannie rozgrywa się psychomachia. W tej perspektywie czytelna staje się przestroga, którą pisarz kieruje do współczesnych
