An Overview of Economics
No full textI assume that your objective of ’Economics 101’ is to try to understand how the economy works instead of going through an economic curriculum. If so you are guaranteed to have fun.

The Latest Version of Circumstances and Cause of Death of Sergey Yesenin. From Order to Exhumation
No full textThe article presents the latest version of circumstances and cause of death of Sergey Yesenin. It should be seen as an edition as well as addition to the recently published monograph Murder of Sergey Yesenin. Criminalistic, Historical and Literary Study (Szczytno 2009), where the primary version of the poet’s murder was depicted. The following revised version reveals some new figures which were directly involved in the tragic death of Yesenin, i.e. Iosif Stalin as the initiator or Georgy Ustinov and Vasily Nazarov as the executors of that perfidious deed. The author projects a plan of the plot, a calendar of the last days and hours of Yesenin’s life, brings out unknown facts and hypotheses which prove a planned homicide committed by members of Soviet secret police (Joint State Political Directorate) and, therefore, disqualify the official version of suicide
Poland and Poles in the dilogy of Sergey Lukyanenko „Rough Draft”, „Final Draft”
No full textThe research material in this work is the dilogy of Sergey Lukyanenko Rough Draft (Черновик, 2005) and Final Draft (Чистовик, 2007).

Sergey Yesenin’s Black Man Translated by Adam Pomorski as the Second Element of the Polish Translated Series
No full textThe author analyses the interpreting techniques used by Adam Pomorski in his
translation of Black Man by Sergey Yesenin. It becomes obvious that the Polish interpreter
used traditional methods of text translation, not always keeping the formal, semantic, and
stylistic structure of the original text. So, in his version Pomorski emphasized the presence
of a second author-creator, i.e. himself, and left traces of his interpreting initiative in almost
every line, amplifying translation, introducing unmotivated inversions, using archaic and
modernized lexis. Due to such a pretentious manner of Pomorski’s translation the reader
received the text which doesn’t always remind Yesenin’s original lines
