This paper examines gender issues in the Wir reisen short story and in the Im Stein novel by Clemens Meyer. Although these texts cannot be analysed solely within the framework of gender and/or queer discourse and their focus on gender was not the author̕ s goal, I believe that illuminating these issues contributes significantly to understanding Meyer's humanistic narrative foundation of his entire oeuvre. His storytelling recognizes contradictions in human nature and the ambivalence of our identities-a nightmare that he develops into dramatic performances in his texts, while simultaneously deconstructing them. The analysis of gender discourse in the texts attempts to answer the question of whether an individual can create and maintain their own identity by returning to the collective (gender and sex) performance imposed by the so-called reality packaged in normative social roles. Meyer̕ s characters are an integral part of the society, but they do not fit into social norms, while also not knowing how to resist them. This is where their tragedy lies. In the story Wir reisen, the characters who are from the social margins-small-time criminals and former prisoners-find closeness, love and happiness precisely in the deconstruction of the dominant gender performance. In the heroes of the novel Im Stein, contradictory ambitions are also reflected, as they seek to assign meaning to their lives. Those needs that do not serve acquisition of money are shifted from the level of social affirmation to the level of individual fulfilment, both in male and female characters.

The text is a combination of an original empirical research, theoretical model, professional observations, analysis and conclusions about the influence of the pandemic on the modification of the content of Radio Beograd 2 programmes of the public broadcaster of Serbia. Professional challenges placed before Radio Beograd 2 were even more pronounced as it was necessary to keep the programmes sustainable in a situation where the events usually providing the backbone of the programming concept were almost non-existent. Subject of the research was the scope of crisis management, general and specific, in Radio Beograd 2 during the emergency situation. Purpose of the research was to determine the capacities of an organisation unit of the Serbian public broadcasting company in non-standard circumstances by analysing its key activities - the capacity to remain consistent with the basic principles set for the operation of the company and to define standard procedures undertaken during the pandemic. Results of this research are expected to serve as records of a global phenomena - witnessing to the position of the media and media workers of a public broadcasting company in the pandemic conditions.

The amount of content provided by digital media has greatly contributed to easier access to various information. However, a critical view of such content is often omitted due to the lack of need for it, lack of adequate education that follows the development and use of new technologies, as well as the lack of time dedicated to this issue. It increasingly points to the need to incorporate media literacy into educational systems, as a way of developing critical reflection and making adequate use of the harvested information. In addition to schools as institutions of education, children of digital colonies are additionally educated outside of institutions through mass communication media. The key to protecting children from negative influences of various contents is to develop their critical thinking about given contents by means of learning various skills required for processing mass media messages. Understanding the importance of media literacy is extremely important, but considering its implementation in the system, it involves transhumanist aspects that contradict the mere essence of literacy. The paper deals with a review and a consideration of changes in behaviour patterns when using digital technologies, as well as a presentation of the often invisible links between the commercialization of content and the expected responses of users.

Each generation has been influenced by certain external factors, in addition to society as a key factor in the formation of their value system. These factors, primarily the media, have contributed to the creation of the modern generation's value system. The assumption is that today's young generations, thanks to the abundance of information that "bombards" them every day, influencing their cognitive-receptive apparatus, build their worldviews and values around them on the displays they see on monitors and screens of their technological devices.

The paper reconstructs the history of digital/computer games in Serbia and (former) Yugoslavia, in the 1980s. Histories of digital games are mostly written based on the history of industry in the US and, somewhat later, Japan, and largely ignore local histories, which - at least in their beginnings and especially on the periphery - are very different from global developments. That is why it was important to reconstruct the local story, before it completely sinks into oblivion. It includes both the games themselves, as well as the computers on which they were played and the media in which they were promoted.

The subject of this article are "Memoirs of a Kashubian Goblin by Bolesław Jażdżewski as an epic form of memory and a document of the times." The narrative forms of memory concern the author's memoirs, comprising of three parts that go back to different periods of historical reality. The first part covers the years 1921-1943, the second - the period from the author's inclusion in the ranks of the Wehrmacht, while the third - refers to the postwar reality of Pomerania and Kashubia after the end of World War II and the construction of a new system in post-war Poland. The presented article is mainly based on the first part of the Memoirs of a Kashubian Goblin and the narrative strategies introduced in the course of reporting about the historical, social, cultural or religious events. B. Jażdżewski primarily relies on the category of memory, thanks to which the told world carries a heavy load of authenticity. In the first part of my research statement, I situate the autobiographical work of Jażdżewski on the map of Kashubian literature, with particular reference to such writers as Aleksander Majkowski, Jan Karnowski or Anna Łajming. In part two, on the other hand, I focus on the category of memory and related narrative strategies, which mean that this prose should be read as a document of the times and a record of history. This work is strongly rooted in the reality of existence in Kashubia and Pomerania in the interwar period and the first years of German occupation during World War II, as well as the post-war reality.

The paper explores changes that occur in the human mind as a consequence of life in digital age. The specific subject of the analysis is the impact on the human mind and overall human activity of human existence dominated by screen culture, where mobile phones, tablets, iPods, computers have become inevitable parts of everyday life. Through the analysis of the thought process of teenagers, who are now refered to in literature as "screenagers" and whose life is characterised by copy-paste education, decline of reading culture and new forms of addiction to technology and its impact on their behaviour, this paper will show that this new high-tech culture has led to emergence of increasingly difficult direct, offline interpersonal communication and to a decline of social skills. The main goal of the research is to determine how the mind of a modern man works today in the age of electronic markets, web-economy, social networking, cybercrime, love at first "site" and how the human mind reacts to the effect of technology on our privacy.

What is usually referred to as "culture wars" increasingly determines online and offline ambient, especially after the onset of COVID-19 pandemic, followed by waves of internet-enhanced moral panic. In this paper, we aim to understand the intensification of moral panic not simply as a phenomenon that depends on the inflammatory online fears, the way digital natives or baby boomers use the Internet, or the rise of so-called "populism", but as a dynamic arising from the neoliberal politics itself. Instead of taking for granted that current flammable ambience is the result of a "crisis of neoliberal consensus", this article, through example of the United States, shows that culture wars are not only "cultural", but are a vehicle for neoliberal goals, in this case, the privatization of elementary education.

History textbooks in the Serbian language used in Serbian schools during the 19th century had a specific form, appearance and purpose. The form and appearance of the textbook was different from today's textbooks, but we could see from the title, content or introduction of the textbook that it was used in the teaching process. Their content was also different from modern textbooks and the teaching units were adapted to the political situation in which the Serbian people found themselves then. Ancient and Serbian heroes had an important place in the teaching units of these textbooks, and in this paper we have presented several examples that show similarities and differences between them, as well as their role in the education of Serbian youth during the 19th century.

The paper problematizes behavior of new generations in the world of digital narratives in order to answer the question of how the modern cultural matrix encourages the behavior of young generations to gain support and strengthen their reputation in the virtual community, due to the constant desire to confirm and approve themselves, in the new cyberspace, to publish photos and stories on social networks about each of their activities in the real world. In this regard, the phenomenon of video games is also considered, which, similarly to the narrative, leads the user to a gradual reconstruction of the algorithm. Observing generations of millennials and zoomers in the virtual world of social media, a conclusion is reached that the new narratives, understood in the broadest sense, have enabled the formation of values that influence the socialization of young people, their life habits as well as the change in the way they communicate.
