No full textThe author presents poetry by Kamila Janiak in the context of avant-guard pop-culture. She deals mainly with punk and cyber-punk motifs of this poetry, which alow to understand them as a feminist, post-human and anty-capitalist project. She shows how Janiak for her purposes uses d.tournements: she takes on the one hand principles, which rule in the “controlled societies” and on the other hand pop-culture aesthetics and psychodelic rock music.The author presents poetry by Kamila Janiak in the context of avant-guard pop-culture.

"Kartography" by Kamila Shamsie
No full textKartography (2002) is the third novel by the Karachi-born author Kamila Shamsie and the “first full-length Pakistani-English novel with the 1971 war”, which resulted in the secession of Pakistan’s East wing, “as its central concern” (Bhattacharji, 385). Today, Shamsie is best known for her highly prescient Home Fire (2017), which explores the familial repercussions of a young British Pakistani’s recruitment by the Islamic State, and for her post-9/11 novel Burnt Shadows (2009)
Artysta w zwierciadle sztuki. Recenzja książki Seweryna Kuśmierczyka: "Księga filmów Andrieja Tarkowskiego"
No full textTHE ARTIST IN THE MIRROR OF THE ART. REVIEW OF SEWERYN KUOEMIERCZYK’S THE BOOK OF ANDREI TARKOVSKY’S MOVIESVolumetrically impressive elaboration by Kuśmierczyk — amounting to a hundred pages — describes Tarkovsky as a real man-artist. The book, having the formula of a biographic monograph, tries to catch all the film accomplishments of the Soviet director. The author, analyzing chronologically the artist’s works, not only refers extensively to their biographic context, but also focuses our attention on plots, motifs and formal solutions marking Tarkovsky’s style. In a very convincing mode Kuśmierczyk shows the creative way of Tarkovsky, the development of his personality and approach to the cinema philosophy. With a great diligence the researcher quotes biographical curiosities connected with the process of creating the director’s works and traces the cultural and metaphysical contexts of Stalker’s author’s poetics.Translated by Kamila ŻytoTHE ARTIST IN THE MIRROR OF THE ART.

Wavy Line and Totality. Showiness and Efficiency in Kamila Janiak’s Poetry
No full textThe aim of this article is to discuss poetic works by Kamila Janiak using categories of showiness (a formal surplus) and efficiency (understood as critical or per-formative potential). The author of the article comments upon the early reception of Janiak’s poems to point that first reviewers oftentimes intuitively indicated the totality of Janiak’s poetic gestures, and then he traces the poetess’s strategy back to Camp aesthetics
Znaczenie hermeneutyki w badaniach nad przekładem. Uwag kilka o tłumaczeniu wybranych wierszy Cypriana Kamila Norwida na język francuski
No full textThe objective of this paper is to apply the hermeneutics theory in translation. The author defines the notion of hermeneutics and presents briefly the main considerations of most prominent hermeneutic scholars. In this paper the relationship between hermeneutics and translation is presented on the example of Feliks Konopka, the author of French translation (1974) of selected fragments of Cyprian Kamil Norwid’s poetry.Przedmiotem analizy jest znaczenie teorii hermeneutycznej w przekładoznawstwie. W artykule zdefiniowano pojęcie hermeneutyki oraz pokrótce przedstawiono poglądy głównych jej przedstawicieli. Relację: hermeneutyka–przekład obrazuje w niniejszej pracy postawa tłumacza-interpretatora ucieleśniona przez Feliksa Konopkę, autora tłumaczenia na język francuski (1974) wybranych do analizy fragmentów poezji Cypriana Kamila Norwida
Acyclic and Cyclic Reversing Computations in Petri Nets
No full textReversible computations constitute an unconventional form of computing whereany sequence of performed operations can be undone by executing in reverseorder at any point during a computation. It has been attracting increasingattention as it provides opportunities for low-power computation, being at thesame time essential or eligible in various applications. In recent work, wehave proposed a structural way of translating Reversing Petri Nets (RPNs) - atype of Petri nets that embeds reversible computation, to bounded ColouredPetri Nets (CPNs) - an extension of traditional Petri Nets, where tokens carrydata values. Three reversing semantics are possible in RPNs: backtracking(reversing of the lately executed action), causal reversing (action can bereversed only when all its effects have been undone) and out of causalreversing (any previously performed action can be reversed). In this paper, weextend the RPN to CPN translation with formal proofs of correctness. Moreover,the possibility of introduction of cycles to RPNs is discussed. We analyzewhich type of cycles could be allowed in RPNs to ensure consistency with thecurrent semantics. It emerged that the most interesting case related to cyclesin RPNs occurs in causal semantics, where various interpretations of dependencyresult in different net's behaviour during reversing. Three definitions ofdependence are presented and discussed.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:2101.07066 by other author
The Performance of Identity in Kamila Shamsie’s Burnt Shadows
No full textThe paper discusses the processes of identity construction enacted by the main character in the novel Burnt Shadows by Kamila Shamsie focusing on the performative relationship existing between agency and identity. The aim is to explore the ways in which the author portrays the relationship between relevant political facts and the dynamics of identity formation. Such events can indeed become a driving force to enact a process of identity formation that questions certain social conventions. In the novel historical events become a drive to agency and thus to the performative construction of the self. Such a construction process brings the protagonist of Shamsie’s novel to develop a position highly critical of nationalisms and nationalistic policies and to embrace the idea of possible transnational solidarities
Issue of organisational learning in conditions of onetoom kindergarten, its specific and potentials
No full textTITLE: The issue of ornisational learning in the conditions of a one room kindergarten, its specifics and potentials AUTHOR: Kamila Randová DEPARTMENT: School management centre SUPERVISOR: PhDr. Voda Jan, Ph.D ABSTRACT: Bachelor thesis focuses on the concept of a learning organisation and various forms of organisational learning, which is carried out in the conditions of a kindegarten. In the theoretical part it deals mainly with outer and inner conditions of management of a one- room kindergarten. The goal of this work is to list specifics that influence the process of organisational learning and to set principles of a one-room kindergarten as a learning organisation. In the research part the conditions of a kindergarten are validated with the help of a quastionnaire research and the conclusion evaluates if the inner and outer conditions according to the given principles influence the organisational learning in other one room kndergartens. KEY WORDS: Kindergarten, learning organisation, organisational learning, inner and outer conditions, cooperatio
Confidence intervals for parameters of multinomial distribution
No full textTitle: Confidence intervals for parameters of multinomial distribution Author: Kamila Bárnetová Department: Department of Probability and Mathematical Statistics Supervisor: prof. RNDr. Jiří Anděl, DrSc., Department of Probability and Mathematical Statistics Abstract: Confidence intervals for parameters for binomial and multinomial distribution are described in this thesis. These intervals can be used in practice, for exemple- pre-election estimates. The first two chapter are devoted to derivation of these intervals. Simulations and comparison of several selected methods can be found in the last chapter. Based on the simulations, we consider it appropriate, to choose to calculate confidence intervals for parameters of multinomial distribution intervals based on Bonferroniho inequality, or their modifications. These intervals are easy to calculate, while their coverage probability is at least 0.89. Keywords: confidence interval, multinomial distribution, binomial distribution, Bonferroni inequalit
Visions of Avant-Garde Film: Polish Cinematic Experiments from Expressionism to Constructivism
No full textWarsaw and London-based filmmakers Franciszka and Stefan Themerson are often recognized internationally as pioneers of the 1930s Polish avant-garde. Yet, from the turn of the century to the end of the 1920s, Poland's literary and art scenes were also producing a rich array of criticism and early experiments with the moving image that set the stage for later developments in the avant-garde. In this comprehensive and accessible study, Kamila Kuc draws on myriad undiscovered archival sources to tell the history of early Polish avant-garde movements―Symbolism, Expressionism, Futurism, and Constructivism―and to reveal their impact on later practices in art cinema.
Review
Kuc's ambitious project provides a comprehensive view of Polish avant-garde film before 1945, making a solid contribution to the experimental cinema field of studies and showing how illuminating an account based on sources other than realized films can be for early avant-garde cinema.
― Slavic Review
Kamila Kuc's Visions of Avant-Garde Film is devoted to the beginnings of the Polish film avant-garde. The author of this volume proposes an original perspective, paying attention to phenomena that have not been yet described or that have been so far ignored. Her reflection focuses on the relationship between the film and other areas of the avant-garde. [This] book is not only valuable by filling the gap in the literature devoted to early Polish experimental cinema, but also an original proposal of an 'alternative' cinema history.
