Interetniczność w folklorze dzieci na pograniczu polsko-czeskim
The study is devoted to oral, anonymous and collective works of Polish children in Cieszyn Silesia, on both sides of the Polish-Czech national borderline. A special emphasis was put on the repertoire functioning in the environment of Polish minority in Zaolzie, in the Czech Republic. Here, I aim at discussing the interethnic specificity of verbal play by Polish children from Zaolzie by means of a comparison with ethnically Polish store of folklore on the Polish side of the borderline in Cieszyn Silesia and with ethnically Czech texts. Verbal works of Polish national minority in the Czech Republic develops under the constant influence of ethnically foreign culture, language, literature and mass media. The analysis of specific genres of child folklore — rhymes — showed that the texts are marked by the interference of two languages and cultures. It is, however, the proportions between the elements borrowed from other culture and the parent one that bring about the ethnic nature. Borrowings, though, are not taken on passively and mechanically, but are modeled according to the principles of one’s own anonymous works. The influences of Czech enrich the Polish-speaking works of children, are adapted to the poetic system in accordance with the principles of one’s own anonymous works. Verbal play, developing in the situation of a direct presence of the sender and receiver, are incredibly precious for maintaining identity of a child living in the multicultural environment. Spontaneous reactions when playing do not only integrate peer environment, but give the sense of security deriving from the belief that the remaining participants of the act of communication have an analogous system of values, represent a similar worldview, and have a similar sense of aesthetics. A spoken word is a symbol of a live and dynamic culture, which realizes the needs of a group in a natural way. In the system of culture shaped in such a way foreign ethnic influences can only enrich it brings about its interethnic specificity.The study is devoted to oral, anonymous and collective works of Polish children in Cieszyn Silesia, on both sides of the Polish-Czech national borderline.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

Autoidentyfikacja cieszyńskich Ślązaków we współczesnym dyskursie publicznym : echa pierwszej wojny światowej
Konsekwencją wybuchu I wojny światowej dla mieszkańców Śląska Cieszyńskiego było ukształtowanie państw narodowych i ustalenie polsko-czeskiej granicy na rzece Olzie. W efekcie tych działań do Czechosłowacji włączony został obszar zamieszkały przez autochtoniczną ludność polską, zwany Zaolziem. Współcześnie dochodzi tam do symbolicznej „wojny o autoidentyfikację” w ramach znaczeń przypisywanych przez poszczególne wspólnoty przestrzeniom, a za ich pośrednictwem historii, postaciom i artefaktom. Zobrazowaniu omawianych zjawisk społecznych służą przykłady dyskursu publicznego, na płaszczyźnie którego obserwujemy negocjowanie tożsamości w środowisku mniejszości polskiej (przygotowania do spisu powszechnego) i otwarte konflikty o symboliczną dominację (wznoszenie pomników, tworzenie map) pomiędzy czeską większością i autochtoniczną ludnością polsk

Współczesne autoidentyfikacje mieszkańców Zaolzia
For the residents of Cieszyn Silesia, especially Czech, the establishment of
national boundaries along the course of the Olza River in 1920, meant that they had
to form a new picture of the world and determine their own place in the community,
which also had to be redefined. For Zaolzie residents, the process of constructing
their own identity depends on mechanisms of competition, negotiation and power
(media, education and administration). It also is a consequence of the recognition
of the boundary as something natural and “ever” existent. The clash of different
self-identifications is seen on the symbolic level, especially linguistic
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Dekonstrukcja stałości i refleksja posthumanizmu. Sprawozdanie z SIEF 2021 15 th Congress, Helsinki, Finlandia, 19-24 czerwca 2021
"Mottem kongresu organizowanego w 2021 roku przez Société Internationale
d’Ethnologie et de Folklore (SIEF) – International Society for
Ethnology and Folklore był cytat z powieści francuskiego pisarza renesansowego
François Rabelais’ego: „Zawsze bowiem dążymy do rzeczy
zabronionych i pragniemy tego, czego nam odmówiono” (Gargantua
i Pantagruel, tłum. Tadeusz Boy-Żeleński). Zdanie to zapowiadało tematykę
obrad, które zaplanowane były w Helskinkach, ale ostatecznie odbyły
się w przestrzeni wirtualnej, na skutek zaostrzenia środków bezpieczeństwa
z powodu pandemii COVID-19. Organizatorzy postawili sobie
za cel skupienie uwagi etnologów, antropologów, folklorystów oraz naukowców
z pokrewnych dyscyplin na dyskursach i praktykach tworzenia,
łamania, reinterpretacji i przekraczania zasad. Sam tytuł kongresu
– „Breaking the rules? Power, participation, transgression” sugerował zainteresowanie
środowiska akademickiego badaniem przyczyn i skutków
łamania, naginania i przekraczania norm oraz skłaniał do ponownego
przyjrzenia się pojęciom władzy, partycypacji i transgresji." (fragm.
