Dame Cicely Saunders OM in interview with Dr Max Blythe
Full text linkThe leader of the modern hospice movement in the UK, Dame Cicely Saunders OM FRCP, discusses the birth and evolution of a care concept and the phases in its translation into the innovative St Christopher's Hospice in 1967. From an outline review of family and educational background, the first section of the interview leads to discussion of early career interests in nursing and medical social work, and the religious and clinical experiences and relationships that established a commitment to improving the care of the terminally ill. How belated but essential medical training was then negotiated is reviewed, followed by outlines of the first stages in the planning and financing of St Christopher's and the ideas that were set in practice there. After this, discussion focuses on the subsequent evolution of the hospice, how ideals and practicalities have influenced the character of its caring, also developments in medicine that have advanced effectiveness

Autorka objaśnia pochodzenie i znaczenie tytułowego pojęcia autobiografikcji, a następnie przedstawia stanowisko Saundersa w debacie na ten temat. Poddawszy krytycznemu omówieniu najważniejsze konteksty tego mniej znanego w polskim dyskursie akademickim zagadnienia, przybliża w konkluzji wnioski Saundersa, który przekonuje, iż zjawisko zacierającej się granicy między faktem a fikcją w pisarstwie autobiograficznym należy datować nie na czasy najnowsze, lecz na znacznie wcześniejszy okres modernizmu.The article is an analysis to Max Saunders’ research paper entitled „Autobiografiction: Experimental Life-Writing from the Turn of the Century to Modernism”.

Drag it together with Groupie: making RDF data authoring easy and fun for anyone
No full textOne of the foremost challenges towards realizing a “Read-write Web of Data” [3] is making it possible for everyday computer users to easily find, manipulate, create, and publish data back to the Web so that it can be made available for others to use. However, many aspects of Linked Data make authoring and manipulation difficult for “normal” (ie non-coder) end-users. First, data can be high-dimensional, having arbitrary many properties per “instance”, and interlinked to arbitrary many other instances in a many different ways. Second, collections of Linked Data tend to be vastly more heterogeneous than in typical structured databases, where instances are kept in uniform collections (e.g., database tables). Third, while highly flexible, the problem of having all structures reduced as a graph is verbosity: even simple structures can appear complex. Finally, many of the concepts involved in linked data authoring - for example, terms used to define ontologies are highly abstract and foreign to regular citizen-users.To counter this complexity we have devised a drag-and-drop direct manipulation interface that makes authoring Linked Data easy, fun, and accessible to a wide audience. Groupie allows users to author data simply by dragging blobs representing entities into other entities to compose relationships, establishing one relational link at a time. Since the underlying representation is RDF, Groupie facilitates the inclusion of references to entities and properties defined elsewhere on the Web through integration with popular Linked Data indexing services. Finally, to make it easy for new users to build upon others’ work, Groupie provides a communal space where all data sets created by users can be shared, cloned and modified, allowing individual users to help each other model complex domains thereby leveraging collective intelligence
