Масова культура і національно-культурна ідентичність в добу глобалізації

Author(s): Zhanna Zaharivna Denysyuk / Language(s): Ukrainian

Монографія є результатом дослідження масової культури та національно-культурної ідентичності в умовах перебігу глобалізаційних процесів. Головним виразником культурного глобалізму є масова культура, яка, володіючи стандартизованими схемами виробництва творів, впливає на національні культури й ідентичності. Візуальна компонента в масовій культурі дозволяє визначити форми існування сегмента екранної культури щодо формування культурних ідентичностей і конструювання реальності. В умовах глобалізації масова культура, створена на основі загальноцивілізаційного технологічного стандарту, здатна чинити вплив на національно-культурну ідентичність народів, їхні традиції, проте дія таких чинників не зачіпає «культурну матрицю» національних культур. Результати монографії розглядаються як теоретичне підґрунтя для подальших досліджень, присвячених актуальним проблемам розвитку масової культури і міжкультурної взаємодії, узагальнюючих робіт з проблем національно-культурної ідентичності та процесів культурної глобалізації в світі. Адресовано фахівцям у галузі культурології, філософії, мистецтвознавства, студентам вищих навчальних закладів культури та мистецтв, всім, хто цікавиться культуро-творчими процесами в Україні.

Постфольклор інтернет-комунікації в аксіологічному вимірІ

Author(s): Zhanna Zaharivna Denysyuk / Language(s): Ukrainian

Монографія присвячена дослідженню феномену постфольклору, що утворився в середовищі інтернет-комунікації і є генетично спорідненим із класичними фольклорними зразками. Проте за своїми зовнішніми та внутрішніми ознаками і характеристиками належить до явищ принципово нового культурного рівня, твори яких не лише відображають мозаїчну соціокультурну дійсність, але й акумулюють та транслюють ціннісні значення, ідеї та ідеали соціуму, виступаючи своєрідним стабілізуючим началом в осмисленні соціокультурних реалій. Інтернет-технології, породжуючи сучасні комунікативні практики, задають не лише нові формати існування культури та її артефактів в інтернет-мережі, але й зумовлюють радикальне переосмислення ціннісно-смислових домінант суспільства в умовах дигітального середовища. Монографія адресується фахівцям у галузі культурології, філософії культури, мистецтвознавцям, студентам навчальних закладів мистецтва та культури, всім, хто цікавиться означеною проблематикою.

Excess cultural baggage. Social mobilisation in an authoritarian Russia

Author(s): Jadwiga Rogoża / Language(s): English

Among the key processes which have been taking place in Russia in recent decades, special attention should be paid to social mobilisation, i.e. the developing habits of taking up grassroots activities, the emergence of horizontal social networks, the large number of formal and informal civic initiatives (both political and non-political). This mobilisation should not be analysed separately from the evolution of the model of the state as a whole, which – especially since 2012 – has seen an increase in repression and a decline in economic efficiency. The main question posed by this study concerns the conditions that make social mobilisation and the citizens’ dissatisfaction with the condition of the state only result in short-term and local outbreaks of protest and not into a change in the entire model of governance. In this context, the text considers both the current and personnel-related factors, and the long-term cultural, social and political factors.

Ile waży bagaż kulturowy. Aktywizacja społeczna w autorytarnej Rosji

Author(s): Jadwiga Rogoża / Language(s): Polish

Wśród istotnych procesów toczących się w Rosji w ostatniej dekadzie opisu i analizy wymaga aktywizacja społeczna – kształtujące się nawyki podejmowania oddolnych działań, tworzące się poziome sieci społeczne, duża liczba formalnych i nieformalnych inicjatyw obywatelskich, zarówno politycznych, jak i apolitycznych. Aktywizacja ta nie może jednak być rozpatrywana w oderwaniu od ewolucji całego modelu państwa, który – zwłaszcza po roku 2012 – notuje wzrost represyjności oraz spadek efektywności gospodarczej. Główne pytanie, jakie stawia niniejszy tekst, dotyczy uwarunkowań, które sprawiają, że aktywizacja społeczna i wzrost niezadowolenia obywateli z kondycji państwa skutkują jedynie krótkotrwałymi i lokalnymi wybuchami protestu i nie przekładają się na zmianę całego modelu zarządzania. W tym kontekście rozpatrzone zostały zarówno czynniki bieżące i personalne, jak i długofalowe uwarunkowania kulturowe, społeczne i polityczne.

Kozacy Putina. Folklor, biznes czy polityka?

Author(s): Jolanta Darczewska / Language(s): Polish

Rosyjskie kozactwo budzi wśród obserwatorów skrajne opinie: przez część jest traktowane jako marginalne zjawisko społeczne, folklor polityczny, przez innych – jako moralnie i fizycznie zdrową część narodu, filar nowoczesnych formacji paramilitarnych broniących granic państwowych i kulturowych Rosji. W tekście podjęto próbę interpretacji tego problemu w kategoriach procesu społeczno-politycznego. Doprowadził on do przekształcenia oddolnego, spontanicznego ruchu w ruch sterowany odgórnie, kontrolowany. Niezależnie od tej zasadniczej zmiany, kozactwo (ściślej – neokozactwo) nadal definiuje się jako wspólnotę historyczno-kulturową, za pomocą takich wyróżników, jak: propaństwowa i obronna mentalność, zmilitaryzowany styl życia i służba państwowa, wyznanie prawosławne, odrębne tradycje i obyczaje. W części pierwszej – przez pryzmat kluczowych pojęć – przybliżono oficjalną narrację na ten temat. Omawiane pojęcia (stan kozacki, rejestr kozacki, kozactwo rejestrowe, kozacka służba państwowa) niosą sporą dawkę dezinformacji, co wynika choćby z wyrwania ich z historycznego kontekstu i umieszczenia we współczesnych realiach rosyjskich. Część druga jest poświęcona strategicznym celom polityki Rosji wobec neokozactwa oraz systemowi organizacyjnemu powołanemu do jej realizacji. Tekst zamyka wykaz przypisywanych mu funkcji, tj. wiązanych z tą społecznością długofalowych interesów Kremla.

Hudebně-literární slovník. Hudební díla inspirovaná slovesným uměním. Skladatelé 20. století. III. díl slovníkové trilogie

Author(s): Vladimír Spousta / Language(s): Czech

The third part of a Musical-Literary Dictionary builds on the first two parts of the Dictionary dealing with international and Czech composers which were published by the Masaryk University Press in 2011. The third part of the Dictionary concludes a monumental dictionary trilogy. This work deals with literary production of the 20th century composers and registers only their musicial compositions which are linked to literary (exceptionally also visual) art. The link could have a form of unspecified literary, visual or musical inspiration. In the most cases the connectionis about a common idea, theme, content or text of a literary work. The Dictionary designed this way brings a new and original point of view to the 20th century artificial and non-artificial musical production in a worldwide context into Czech and world musicial and literary lexicography. The book includes 4,205 musicial works of 533 Czech and international composers living from 1930 to the present and, on the other hand, it includes also 1,995 literary authors whose literary works have inspired the birth of musicial works. Furthermore the Dictionary pays attention to folk literature and its display in musicial production and also to musical works through which their authors have paid tribute to important artists of the past.

Pohybová aktivita a tělesná kultura pohledem evoluční ontologie: K otázce „filosofické kinantropologie“

Author(s): Vratislav Moudr / Language(s): Czech

Evolutionary ontology claims that culture as an open dynamic system destructs system of nature (biosphere) which is wider and older than culture. Culture must gain its energy, space and matter only through destruction and destabilisation of biosphere. The very existence of humankind (and of culture too) is threatened by successful evolution of sociocultural system. Personal activity of man so can be seen as participation on escatation of conflict between nature and culture. The flow of energy, matter and information is just mediated by human aktivity. Therefore we can understand to intentional activities of man in culture as artificial culturaly oriented processes, which are components of “autopoietic” metabolism of culture that is now highly destructive for nature and society. Aim of this monograph is thus present evolutionary ontology as fruitful theoretical point of view in the field of philosophy of sport. Author reflects on activities of man and its distinctive forms – physical training and sport exercising. He analyzes sociocultural system of physical culture, searchs for its function (identity) and its relations to culture, nature and human. Text is focused mainly on sociocultural orientation of human activities. Its autor also outlines where these activities should be oriented from the evolutionary ontological point of view.

Studie a stati 1

Author(s): Jaroslav Střítecký / Language(s): Czech,German

The core of the volume is the texts dealing with Wilhelm Dilthey (1833–1911). Although his texts could be interpreted from point of view of cultural history, the author tries to make a philosophical interpretation. Although they may seem thematically distant, the other texts are based on the development of Dilthey motifs. Kantian inspiration was evident in the analysis of the Enlightenment concept of woman and family, as well as in the interpretation of the Central European tradition of aesthetic formalism. The emergence of the philosophy of history and sociological theory in the philosophy of language and the theory of communicative behavior is shown in an analysis of the most important texts by Jürgen Habermas and Karl-Otto Apel.

Humour and Translation in Children’s Literature. A Cognitive Linguistic Approach

Author(s): Sylwia Klos / Language(s): English

The present book combines the results of my studies on developmental psychology, theories on humour, translation theories and cognitive linguistics with the special emphasis on the theory of mental spaces and conceptual integration. Gill Fauconnier and Mark Turner’s model of conceptual blending serves as a basis for creating mental maps that can be used by translators as tools in translating humour, especially wordplays. // The book contains several examples of translating humorous elements taken from English children’s literature (Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland, Roald Dahl’s The BFG and Francesca Simon’s Horrid Henry) into Polish and Portuguese in its European and Brazilian version with the use of mental maps. Cognitive aspects of translation are strongly emphasised, while translation theories and developmental psychology can be treated as a background for translation analysis and evaluation.

Mosty blízké i vzdálené: Století Ústavu germanistiky, nordistiky a nederlandistiky

Author(s): / Language(s): Czech

One hundred years of Germanic Studies in Brno equates to a hundred years of attempting to define the profile of a philological discipline situated very close, in a historical and geographical sense, to the identity of the university, the city and the whole country. After World War II, the Department of Germanic Studies began to build bridges towards the more distant cultures of Scandinavia and the Netherlands.The text focuses on the search for new and appropriate methods of learning as well as sharing competences as long-term objectives in the developmental process, as captured in the mirror of changing societal conditions during the century. The publication presents portraits of those scientific and pedagogical personalities directly or indirectly connected to Germanic Studies, such as the life and work of Professor Antonín Beer and his successors, the work of Professor Josef B. Michl who opened up perspectives toward the north, and the work of Emmy Máčelová which has had an influence on contemporary Dutch and which is firmly anchored in the European branch of the discipline. The photographs used in the publication document the activities of foreign lecturers and our contacts with outstanding experts from the world of Germanic Studies.

Josef Dobrovský: Hungarista a ugrofinista

Author(s): Richard Pražák / Language(s): Czech

The monograph Josef Dobrovský. Hungarologist and Finno-Ugrist deals not only with the strictly philological aspects of the Hungarologic and Finno-Ugric research of the founder of modern Slavic and Bohemistic studies Josef Dobrovsky, but also with his relations to the Finno-Ugric peoples in general, that is to say, to their languages, history and culture. The author's starting point in his approach to Hungarology and Finno-Ugristics is a wider conception, based on the comprehensive culture, politics and history of the peoples in question. In contrast to an exclusively linguistic view, he sees in this branch of science a line of investigation that deals with the languages and with all other essential manifestations of the culture of the Finno-Ugric peoples alike, whether it be in reference to the Central European sphere only (Hungarology) or to the wider Eurasian area (Finno-Ugristics).

Humans and Their Environment, Beyond the Nature/Culture Opposition

Author(s): Claude Calame / Language(s): English

The modern concept of “nature” appeared during the 17th Century: nature as a mechanical object to be submitted to reason man. A long tradition refers to the concept of nature in the Greek phusis. It is referring to a dynamic process that engages in criticizing the modern paradigm of nature as opposed to culture.As it is, the principle of the domination and exploitation by humans of what we consider as nature is at the heart of the ideological, economic and financial models imposed by neoliberal capitalism. Based on the objective of growth, this model shapes and destroys human communities as well as the environment on which they rely and sustain.The climatic urgency as well as the limited capacity of the resources of the earth, require a transition towards an ecosocialism for another world. The anthropological confrontation with the Greek phusis invites to a break with capitalism based on a large scale and speedy use of technologies and with the only objective of financial gain. The result has been destructive productivism. Instead, we have to take into account the complexity of and interactions between human societies and their technical practices in their environment. The survival of one or the other is at stake. In sum, nature is culture.
