Author(s): Agnieszka Jezierska-Wiśniowska / Language(s): Polish Publication Year: 0

The present article is an attempt at looking into the self-promotion strategies of two writers, Charlotte Roche and Michał Witkowski. Their ways of promoting books are similar in four ways: 1. Their bestsellers are based on controversial subjects (homosexuality, unaesthetic diseases, pathology in the family system); 2, they both employ autobiographical convention 3. they are not afraid of scandals, and even direct such situations themselves 4. they share their physical body and voice with their protagonists (like in reading audiobooks). The reception of Roche’s strategy in German-speaking countries has not met with such a resistance as the actions of Witkowski do in Poland.

Author(s): Maciej Kledzik / Language(s): Polish Publication Year: 0

The aim of the present article has been to present the media image on the example of three persons.Marek Edelman did not conceal his hatred of Jewish Military Union. This right-wing, revisionist organization (revisionism-zionism is a fraction within a zionism movement) operated and fought in the Warsaw ghetto. After fifty years, Edelman revealed the reason for his hatred of the Jewish Military Union. Nevertheless, we do not know the whole truth and surely we never will. Jerzy Urban has been a journalist his whole life, he also worked as a politician for nine years. He is notorious for vulgarisms and hate-speech. His main complex is anti-clericalism. He has been sentenced for offensive words about Pope John Paul II.Daniel Passent, similarly as Jerzy Urban, all his life has been a journalist connected with “Polityka”, a weekly newspaper. During the martial law, he published texts in the form of denunciations. The victims of such denunciations could not defend themselves, offer explanations, deny, or complain, since in the martial law there was a military dictatorship, censorship, and prosecution service subordinated to state power. After the opening of the archives it turned out that Daniel Passent had been a secret collaborator of communist forces. He had written denouncing letters. After many years he apologised to some persons, but he never apologised to Gustaw Holoubek, a prominent actor and director.

Author(s): Anna Pyszkowska / Language(s): Polish Publication Year: 0

Instagram is a social media that refers to the right thumb mentality, based on the need ofquick gratification, commercialization, high technologization, rationality, hedonism and individualization. The study has been exploratory and its aim has been to measure variables such as: self-esteem, well-being, shyness and body image amongst Instagram users in Poland. 205 people have taken part in the study (including 151 women, mean age: 23, SD=5,2). Those who publish photographs several times per month exhibit higher self-esteem than those who publish several times per week (p<0,05, Z: –2,33). Those who publish daily value personal development more than people who publish rarely (p<0,05, Z: 2,24). The research shows that the bigger social physique anxiety, the lower sense of self-acceptance, especially amongst women (correlation: –0,4). The medium correlation between shyness and self-esteem (0,4) raises the question of the boundary between real and virtual self. The results obtained suggest that there is a difference between the self-creation in real life and the virtual one – Instagram can be not only a place for self-presentation, it can also be a place for compensation.

Postindustrialna religijność Polaków A.D. 2016

Author(s): Adam Warzecha / Language(s): Polish Publication Year: 0

The years 2004–2005 were a cultural censorship for Poland, the crisis of identity associatedwith European integration, and with illness and death of the Polish pope. Since that time, slowly but steadily, trends have been outlined indicating a change in the nature of Polish religiosity. A critical analysis of the situation presented in the article shows that religious subjectivism, individualization, syncretism, and the deinstitutionalization of faith and morality, associated with such typical enriching and consuming postindustrial societies phenomena as the progressive atomization and alienation, unexpectedly turn out for the Polish Church a problem more serious than traditional atheism or agnosticism.

Celtic influence and genitive resumptives

Author(s): Artur Bartnik / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

This paper deals with resumptive pronouns in the genitive case in relative clauses and the influence that might be exerted upon these structures by Celtic languages. It is claimed that some arguments put forward in favor of possible Celtic influence upon resumptives (Roma 2007) need re-examination and the Celtic hypothesis in resumption should be treated with reserve. Specifically, it will be shown that neither geographical, chronological nor syntactic factors point unambiguously to Celtic influence. Despite some apparent similarities in the relativization systems of Early English and Celtic such as the use of personal pronouns as resumptives we need more evidence to claim that Celtic affected therelative system in the history of English.

Internal structure of liquids: The history of liquid vocalization in English

Author(s): Artur Kijak / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The aim of the paper is twofold: to explain the process of liquid vocalization in the history of English and some accompanying vocalic developments and to explore the internal structure of liquids taking part in the process. In order to achieve the aim, we look at some historical processes in which the liquids are the leading actors. Thus, we discuss the historical liquid vocalization together with vowel developments in the pre-liquid position such as raising, lowering, lengthening or diphthongization. Moreover, we address the questionsconcerning the distribution and representation of liquids and we look at the interaction of liquids with the preceding vowels. Finally, we provide the explanation for both the inconsistent behavior of the lateral in that it has survived only in certain clusters and the intimate relationship between the context and the process of liquid vocalization.

Regional, social, and stylistic variation in American English pronunciation

Author(s): Adam Pluszczyk / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The purpose of this article is to present variation in American English pronunciation with respect to such factors as region, sex, age, social status, style, and context. We will select a few variables and analyze them in terms of their possible realizations – so called variants or candidates. With regard to the occurrence of variant realizations of a particular variable, it is crucial to stress that our analysis is not solely linguistically-conditioned since it also encompasses social and contextual factors which definitely contribute to the variation. The analysis from the purely linguistic point of view would be either erroneous or at least incomplete and thus unreliable. Therefore, the variation will be analyzed linguistically, socially, and contextually. We will observe the occurrence of at least two (or more) variants of particular variables (linguistically) and analyze their evaluationas prestigious or substandard (socially, contextually). In other words, we will indicate that with the emergence of the variants, one cannot avoid making judgments about the alleged betterness or worseness of either of them.

Swoistości języków semickich

Author(s): Kamilla Termińska / Language(s): Polish Publication Year: 0

The article presents the following features of Semitic languages: triconsonality of the root and its capability of constituting meanings – images whose elements are concretised in lexical formations, the peculiar semantisation of morphological categories (causativum, intensivum), the debatable question of the temporalisation of an utterance. One indicated inter alia the problems of the broken plural, the so-called status constructus, the polisemanticity of certain morphemes, suffixed personal pronouns, weak roots and the morphological consequences of phonological departures from the regularity in their structure. As far as the sound-related and phonological layer is concerned, the languages in question are characterised inter alia by a considerable number of laryngeals and pharyngeals, the presence of semivowels and the polyfunctionality of gemination. One is struck by the culturally conditioned ways of reading and interpreting a text which are deeply rooted in mythical and symbolic layers.

Zapożyczenia semickie w mykeńskich nazwach produktów spożywczych

Author(s): Małgorzata Zadka / Language(s): Polish Publication Year: 0

Semitic borrowings in the Greek language are attested already in the oldest layer of the development of this language which is familiar to us – the Mycenaean dialect. A result of contact between the inhabitants of Crete and continental Greece with the Middle East in the Bronze Age, they are associated with various areas of human endeavour – metallurgy, administration and the economy. The tablets with the Linear B script also feature the names of food products of Semitic etymology. The purpose of this article is to examine the relation between the number of Semitic words and the bulk of Mycenaean culinary vocabulary and to examine the varieties of referents whose names were borrowed from Semitic languages. The proportions between them may furnish us with a better understanding of the nature of Mycenaean-Semitic contacts in the second millennium BC.
