The aim of this article is to analyse Witold Gombrowicz’s short story entitled “Pamiętnik Stefana Czarnieckiego” in the context of the convergence between the writer’s worldview and the philosophy of Michel Foucault. Nietzschean motifs inspired both authors to formulate a similar constructivist anthropology and a similar criticism of the concept of discipline. The themes of form and creating a human being by a human being – central to Gombrowicz’s writing – correspond to Foucault’s notion of the production of the subject. In such a perspective, “Pamiętnik Stefana Czarnieckiego” can be read as a record of the experience of an individual subjected to social practices of disciplinary embarrassment, aimed at producing a subject defined by nationality and heteronormativity, as well as the experience of rebellion against an imposed identity. Such a reading reveals the political stakes of the literary output by the author of Ferdydurke: expressed in the deconstruction of authoritarian forms of empowerment and in the pursuit to replace them with forms of subjectification based on irony, fluidity and distance.
本文的目的是在作家的世界观与米歇尔·福柯哲学趋同的背景下,对贡布罗维奇的短篇小说《帕米·斯特凡娜·恰尔涅茨基》进行分析。尼采的主题启发了两位作者形成了类似的建构主义人类学和对学科概念的类似批评。Gombrowicz写作的核心主题是人的形式和创造,这与福柯关于主体产生的概念相对应。从这样的角度来看,“PamiÉtnik Stefana Czarneckiego”可以被解读为一个个人经历了纪律尴尬的社会实践,旨在产生一个由国籍和非规范性定义的主题,以及反抗强加身份的经历。这样的阅读揭示了《费迪杜尔克》作者文学作品的政治利害关系:表现为解构威权形式的赋权,并寻求用基于讽刺、流动性和距离的主体化形式取代它们。

The study is focused on the motif of name taboo in European prose folklore (mostly focused on Czech folklore tradition). This taboo can be defined as a prohibition against uttering the name of a person or thing. The motif appears in folklore in several variants. This taboo may refer to the uttering of one’s own name or the name of dangerous being. The study examines the differences and similarities between the various forms of motifs and compares changes in its narrative and social functions over time.

In the late 1970s, Czech society was becoming increasingly aware of the worsening environmental situation. Officials in the Žďár nad Sázavou district agreed to begin revitalizing the “Opening of the Wells” ritual to educate people about environmental problems and as a partial solution to them. This paper examines how this revitalization occurred, focusing on the conceptual framework meant to legitimize this project (the topoi selected, collective memory, ideological proclamations) and ensure its continuation. Studying attempts to make local authorities hold “Opening of the Wells” ceremonies in the villages of this district also allows us to examine how certain mechanisms of power worked during the Communist era. It also helps us better understand how environmental issues were dealt with at the district level.

This study follows on from previous research on the “ancien time régime” (to around 1800) by R. Koselleck and A. Assmann. It examines representations of eternity in exempla, legends and other texts. The basic motif of these texts is the break with the time, i.e. the situation where the mortal man enters a different time regime (such as paradise) and spents there a seemingly a short time, while, in fact, hundreds of years have passed. The study describes the basic types of these tales (song of the bird, wedding, vision, etc.) and analyses their common motifs.

The study focuses on the etymology and origin of the meaning of the term “race”, which was first used with a reference to a herd of horses with excellent (riding) characteristics and went on define human groups. Researchers examining the etymology of the word race have come up with three established hypotheses as to its origin: the “Arabic”, “Greek-Latin” and “French” hypotheses. Here, the focus is on the French hypothesis, since if the French hypothesis is applied, then the word “race” comes from the French haras, meaning “herd” (of horses) with “aristocratic”, “noble blood origin”. The original meaning of the term race referred to the quality of “blood” (“origin”) of a unique “herd” of horses or dogs. The term gradually began to be used for a “quality family” (caste) from a socially “noble” group of people (knights, bishops or king), who spoke of themselves in terms of aristocratic, noble, family origin, thus in the sense of a noble “bloodline”.

The author deals with the importance of memories in connection with historical buildings and sites. The theoretical framework of the study is the concept of space and place (mostly in approach of S. Low) and collective memory (M. Halbwachs). Abstract space is transformed through human activities, interpersonal relationships, communication, memories, etc. into a known place with sense and specific meanings for certain people. Collective memory (the social representation of the past) plays an important role in this process of change. On the other hand, the memories are bound to a certain place, that is to say they are spatially anchored. In this study, the author observes what memories are related to the buildings and the site of the old hospital in Topoľčany. His informants were its former employees, doctors and nurses and the main method used was ethnographic semi-structured interview. When analyzing the research data, the author observes the character and content of the collective memory of the former employees and how the space of the old hospital is transformed into a known and familiar place.

The main aim of the article is to identify key interpretation issues in two texts by Adam Wiedemann. Both texts feature contemporary literary pictures of visits to Venice – the Polish author wrote a short story (Sens życia. Opowiadanie śródziemnomorskie, 1998) and a poem (Tramwaj na Lido, 2015) about his journeys to Italy. Those textual visions of the urban space of Venice show that Wiedemann is fully aware of many similar attempts made earlier yet still strives to stress his distinctness, creating a record of meetings of the contemporary visitor with the unique phenomenon of the unusual urban phenomenon.
本文的主要目的是确定亚当·维德曼的两个文本中的关键解释问题。这两本书都以访问威尼斯的当代文学图片为特色——这位波兰作家写了一篇关于他意大利之旅的短篇小说(Sensżycia.Opowiadanieśródziemnomomorskie,1998)和一首诗(Tramwaj na Lido,2015)。这些对威尼斯城市空间的文本想象表明,Wiedemann充分意识到早期的许多类似尝试,但仍然努力强调自己的独特性,创造了当代游客与不同寻常的城市现象这一独特现象的会面记录。

The interview focuses on Thomas Mann, his oeuvre and the reception of his works. The dispute around Mann’s The Magic Mountain, started by Stanisław Barańczak, is an important context of the text. In the interview an essay Reflections of a Nonpolitical Man (yet untranslated into Polish as a whole) is mentioned.

The aim of this article is to outline the issues related to the specificity of the image of the writer and his role in society created in Tadeusz Konwicki’s early works. This stage in the writer’s life opens with the first short story that Konwicki published, namely “Kapral Koziołek i ja” from 1947, after which the initial model of his writing is subject to gradual erosion and ends between 1954 and 1955 with the novel titled Z oblężonego miasta. Investigating the motif of the creative work house on the basis of Z oblężonego miasta is a pretext for reflection on the category of the writer’s work.
本文的目的是概述与塔德乌什·孔威基早期作品中作家形象的特殊性及其在社会中的角色相关的问题。作家生命的这一阶段始于1947年Konwicki发表的第一篇短篇小说《Kapral Koziołek i ja》,之后他最初的写作模式逐渐受到侵蚀,并在1954年至1955年之间以小说《Z oblężonego miasta》结束。在Z oblężonego miasta的基础上考察创意工作室的母题,是对作家作品范畴的反思。
