Career planning and management as a subordinate attribute of the individual

Planowanie i zarządzanie karierą jako podmiotowa „własność” jednostki

Author(s): Lucyna Myszka / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 5/2015

Keywords: career; career planning; career management; carrer as an attribute of an individual; job market;

Career is a very complicated matter due to the interest of other branches of science and the changes in the modern world, which generate additional complexity to the problem. This discourse is an interdisciplinary dialogue about the functioning of a human being in the modern job market, which rejects the traditional approach to career as an attribute of a profession or organization. Ambivalence and permanent change not only make long-term planning impossible but also make traditional social presumptions obsolete. This situation demands an ability to construct and implement a vision of ones own future and an ability to modify this plan according to the changing environment. Because of this, a proactive approach to ones career becomes a necessity. It is expressed in a correct assessment and use of environmental factors which help to realize the subjective concept of success.

Adam Smith was wrong. It is not selfish individuals who cause economic development, but strong communities

Adam Smith pomylił się. To nie egoistyczne jednostki, lecz silne wspólnoty powodują szybszy rozwój ekonomiczny

Author(s): Mariusz Maziarz / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 5/2015

Keywords: collectivism; causality in economics; determinants of growth; individualism/collectivism;

According to the two most popular philosophical theories of causality, there are two ways of recognizing such relations: (1) by understanding mechanisms and processes between variables (in pursuance of causal realism) or (2) by correlation analysis (because, as Hume wrote, it is impossible to cognize the causal relationship itself). I applied these two methods to answer the question - if there is a cause-and-effect relationship between one of the cultural dimensions, namely individualism-collectivism and the rate of economic growth. This study, conducted on a group of EU countries shows that more collectivistic countries develop faster.

When languages meet – on the problems of naming a particular group of phenomena, with reference to texts written in the fifteenth-century Silesia

Na styku języków – o kłopotach z nazywaniem pewnej grupy zjawisk. Wokół tekstów powstałych w XV w. na Śląsku

Author(s): Karolina Borowiec / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 5/2015

Keywords: multilingualism; language contact; multilingualism in the Middle Ages; medieval Silesia; Old Polish; Czech- Polish language relationships;

The article postulates the need of new studies of texts (which had previously been characterized as "Polish" or "mixed") produced in the fifteenth century in Silesia region, at the same time placing the problem in a European context. The author points out a number of problems posed by such old and difficult to interpret material (their linguistic specificity may have be caused by a bilingual scribe or the language used in medieval Silesia), such as the multilayered structure of the medieval text, the close relationship between Czech and Polish language systems, and difficulties in establishing the relationship between writing and phonetics, etc.

Echoes of the Renaissance tradition in selected songs of Józef Morelowski

Echa tradycji renesansowej w wybranych pieśniach Józefa Morelowskiego

Author(s): Agnieszka Ochenkowska / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 5/2015

Keywords: Józef Morelowski; Songs; poetic cycle; nature; culture; Enlightenment; Renaissance;

Józef Morelowski is a forgotten poet of the Enlightenment, condemned to literary oblivion. Amongst his works, readers are aware only of Lamentations on the dissolution of Poland. Other works, such as the cycle of 78 songs, were neither widely known nor read. It is interesting to reflect on what caused such a state of affairs - did the Enlightennment really assimilate poems of patriotic subject matter for itself, sentencing others to oblivion? Apart from the diversity of the subject matter, a wealth of motives and references to the literary tradition of other ages is also found in in Songs. An analysis of selected songs shows their links with the Polish cultural legacy.

The Doll and The Homeless - The tragedy of the protagonists

Lalka – Ludzie bezdomni. Z zagadnień tragizmu bohaterów

Author(s): Tomasz Baudysz / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 5/2015

Keywords: Boleslaw Prus; Stefan Zeromski; The Doll; The Homeless; Aristotle; tragedy; Greek tragedy;

Whereas a cursory reading of The Doll and The Homeless may give the impression that the authors of each of these novels use completely different formal solutions to give the final shape of their works, a more thorough analysis reveals several compositional inspirations used by Zeromski, drawing directly on the school of Prus. But the common compositional concept of both novels was established in literary convention long before the end of the 19th century- both writers take a clear inspiration from Aristotle's theory of ancient tragedy. Although Aristotle’s rules related to drama, they are also useful for the construction of epic works. In this paper, the author traces the tragic fate of Wokulski and Judym, using Aristotle’s theory of Greek tragedy.

Keywords: Stefan Grabinski; Edgar Allan Poe; meta-fiction; doppelganger theme; short story;

Author found them typical of the psychological fiction. Both of them have reporting narration and the plots are seemingly realistic.

Author(s): Piotr Kuligowski / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 5/2015

Keywords: citizen; democracy; independence; nation; the January Uprising; the November Uprising; socialism; soldier;

This article discusses the role and significance of the soldier - citizen in polish political thought before 1945.

At the core of this concept was the widening the uprising movement by the enfranchisement of the peasantry and the conversion of this strata to the modern political community - the nation.

W kręgu literatury żołnierskiej. Strategie pisania o wojnie w pamiętnikach żołnierzy II wojny światowej

Author(s): Magdalena Kuczek / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 5/2015

Keywords: war; diary; history; tradition; testimony; War World II; soldiers’ literature;

Soldiers' memoirs, often written from the front line, are a constant feature of Polish war literature. The events of war, written from the soldiers’ point of view, are presented in different way than those that were written by writers with no experience of war. Armed conflict was their daily experience, and their diaries impart a real sense of what it is to be a soldier. Soldiers had three possible strategies in writing about war - chronicler, propagator, or reporter. Often they linked two opposing perspectives of war - nobility and slaughter.

Is phenomenology enough? The margina of abstract art based on Marta Tomczyk’s work

Czy fenomenologia wystarczy? Pogranicza abstrakcjonizmu na przykładzie twórczości Marty Tomczyk

Author(s): Magdalena Maria Jaroń / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 5/2015

Keywords: abstractionism; Marta Tomczyk; painting; phenomenology; aesthetics; philosophy;

This article is an attempt to measure the complementarity of phenomenology (not only in Lévinas’ understanding) and the possibility of using it to explore and research the exceptional works with which Marta Tomczyk has endowed modern culture. The artist, through a frank auto-vivisection in one of her cycles of paintings, invites the viewer to a meeting with the 'Other'. We need to ask whether Lévinas’ phenomenology, which tells about meeting and recognizing the 'Other', being that phenomenology that goes beyond the frames of Husserl’s thinking, is enough?
