- Summary/Abstract:The article analyses the collages of Herta Müller as an appropriate means of articulating traumatic experiences made under the regime of rumanian dictator Ceausescu. The own liminal position and the contingency of west-german print-media offer a space for poetological reflections and experiments. Müller develops a strategy of playfulness that allows to free traumatic experiences and initiates a process of healing memory. The collages also try to give an answer to the question, to what extent the terror experienced in the Past can be articulated across aesthetic forms.

Structural tricks and textual strategies used to create the textual representation of different existing forms of memory are analyzed on the example of digital poetry and hypertext narration. These are for instance: the remembering, the mentioning, the recalling, the presenting of the past.

- Summary/Abstract:In the analyzed Polish mems a selective treatment of culture and a duplicationof stereotypes concerning the appearance of German women,men and the German language can be observed. However, in the memsthere appear new elements which are connected with a clever observationof the changes that take place, and an awareness of the existenceof stereotypical images, and, perhaps, an attempt at referring to themin a perverse way (a series Ładna Niemka – ‘A Pretty German Woman’).In the series with the phrase Niemiec płakał, jak sprzedawał (A Germanwas crying as he was selling) we can notice a play with the typicalperception of German cars, their owners and the arguments of carsalesmen. Therefore, on the one hand, mems strenghten conventionalperspectives, and on the other hand, they oppose them, frequentlyshowing their absurdity, ridiculousness and conventionality.

- Summary/Abstract:In his works, Tankred Dorst deals with the problems and weaknesses of the modern society. One of them is the inability to remember, which is directly connected with the loss of identity. One might refer to it as the subjective and collective culture of memory. It is clearly visible in both his texts: the protagonists cannot recognise relations and contexts in society because they have no memories. They are not able to retain elements of the past in their consciousness. Thus their lives are pointless, devoid of a fundamental pillar: memory.

- Keywords:Literature and Religion; Catholic Discourse; Martin Mosebach; Martin Walser
- Summary/Abstract:Catholic references appearing in recent German-language literature,including Martin Mosebach’s and Martin Walser’s novels, are connectedwith traditional structures, which originated in previous epochs. At thebeginning of the 21st century, in a new confessional, aesthetic, and literarycontext, having assumed new forms, these structures are nowreturning. In the case of Mosebach, they should be considered as newvariants of a traditional, organic worldview, while in the case of Walser,they should be viewed as an elaboration of an early Romantic concept,which presupposes questioning of that traditional worldview.

- Keywords:shtetl; Muszka; Pomer; Jewish identity; memory
- Summary/Abstract:Shtetl, a mosaic of cultures, languages and religions, was presented by Polish-Jewish artists of the interwar period as a juxtaposition of two worlds: the idyllic world of childhood and the ugly, miserable place of Jewish existence in Eastern Europe. After the Holocaust the portrayal of shtetl became the symbol of the lost world of European Jewry. This essay focusses on two Polish-Jewish artists: a poet Stefan Pomer, who came from a Podolian shtetl and became victim of the Holocaust and an artist Adam Muszka, a Holocaust survivor, who devoted his life to painting a shtetl of his childhood Piotrków Trybunalski, and examines how the memory of shtetl is represented in their works.

The interwar source texts were taken into consideration, in particular these ones that concern teaching German as a foreign language. The collected textual data were used to describe the problem of spreading certain historical and cultural content defining the particular society. Having emphasised the cognitive aspect, the author portrayed the permeation of two discourses: the foreign language teaching and identity discourse. In the analyses she focused on presenting the conditions and aims of the foreign language teaching in the context of interwar education in Poland, at the same time showing the cultural content of foreign language teaching of the given period.
