  • Zakład Narodowy Im. Ossolińskich I Jego Zbiory W Latach 1817‒1939
    Nowa Biblioteka. Usługi, Technologie Informacyjne i Media 2020, nr 2 (37), s. 1 z 17 ISSN 2451-2575 (wersja elektroniczna) GICID 71.0000.1500.0677 https://doi.org/10.31261/NB.2020.37.06 Tomasz Dudek Biblioteka Jagiellońska Uniwersytet Jagielloński w Krakowie e-mail: [email protected] https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0666-6407 Zakład Narodowy im. Ossolińskich i jego zbiory w latach 1817‒1939 Abstrakt: Celem prezentowanego artykułu jest ukazanie dziejów i zbiorów Zakładu Narodowego im. Ossolińskich w latach 1817‒1939. Za pomocą analizy zachowanych dokumentów oraz istniejącej literatury przedmiotu starano się nie tylko ukazać hi- storię instytucji, wybrane kolekcje z zasobów biblioteki, ale także przedstawić jej organizację oraz ludzi, którzy na przestrzeni przeszło 120 lat przewinęli się przez jej mury. Jest to tym ważniejsze, że w przeciwieństwie do wielu innych polskich bibliotek nigdy nie napisano całościowej historii Ossolineum. Przyczyną tej sytuacji było to, że po 1945 r. niemal wszystkie archiwalia mogące służyć poznaniu dziejów Zakładu pozostały we Lwowie, zaś dostęp do nich był dla polskich badaczy bar- dzo utrudniony, a czasami nawet wręcz niemożliwy. Sytuacja ta zaczęła się powoli zmieniać po 1989 r. Wtedy też powstały mniejsze lub większe prace przyczynkarskie dotyczące dziejów Ossolineum. Dopiero od niedawna na rynku księgarskim zaczęły się pojawiać szersze publikacje ukazujące różne aspekty funkcjonowania Zakładu Narodowego im. Ossolińskich. Zgodnie z zamierzeniami fundatora instytucja ta zło- żona z biblioteki, wydawnictwa oraz muzeum miała nie tylko gromadzić różnego rodzaju druki, rękopisy, dzieła sztuki, ale także udostępniać swoje zbiory wszystkim zainteresowanym. Data początkowa artykułu wyznaczona została przez powołanie Zakładu, do którego doszło w 1817 r.

  • Late Poetry of Tadeusz Różewicz
    Modes of Reading Texts, Objects, and Images: Late Poetry of Tadeusz Różewicz by Olga Ponichtera A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures University of Toronto © Copyright by Olga Ponichtera 2015 Modes of Reading Texts, Objects, and Images: Late Poetry of Tadeusz Różewicz Olga Ponichtera Doctor of Philosophy Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures University of Toronto 2015 Abstract This dissertation explores the late oeuvre of Tadeusz Różewicz (1921-2014), a world- renowned Polish poet, dramatist, and prose writer. It focuses primarily on three poetic and multi-genre volumes published after the political turn of 1989, namely: Mother Departs (Matka Odchodzi) (1999), professor’s knife (nożyk profesora) (2001), and Buy a Pig in a Poke: work in progress (Kup kota w worku: work in progress) (2008). The abovementioned works are chosen as exemplars of the writer’s authorial strategies / modes of reading praxis, prescribed by Różewicz for his ideal audience. These strategies simultaneously reveal the poet himself as a reader (of his own texts and the works of other authors). This study defines an author’s late style as a response to the cognitive and aesthetic evaluation of one’s life’s work, artistic legacy, and metaphysical angst of mortality. Różewicz’s late works are characterized by a tension between recognition and reconciliation to closure, and difficulty with it and/or opposition to it. Authorial construction of lyrical subjectivity as a reader, and modes of textual construction are the central questions under analysis. This study examines both, Tadeusz Różewicz as a reader, and the authorial strategies/ modes he creates to guide the reading praxis of the authorial audience.

  • St. John's Cathedral Wrocław
    St. John’s Cathedral Wrocław The Cathedral of St. John the Baptist in Wrocław, (Polish: Archikatedra św. Jana Chrzciciela, German: Breslauer Dom, Kathedrale St. Johannes des Täufers), is the seat of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Wrocław and a landmark of the city of Wrocław in Poland. The cathedral, located in the Ostrów Tumski district, is a Gothic church with Neo-Gothic additions. The current standing cathedral is the fourth church to have been built on the site. The cathedral was almost entirely destroyed (about 70% of the construction) during the Siege of Breslau and heavy bombing by the Red Army in the last days of World War II. Parts of the interior fittings were saved and are now on display at the National Museum in Warsaw. The initial reconstruction of the church lasted until 1951, when it was reconsecrated by Archbishop Stefan Wyszyński. In the following years, additional aspects were rebuilt and renovated. The original, conical shape of the towers was restored only in 1991. Wroclaw Town Hall The Old Town Hall (Polish: Stary Ratusz) of Wroclaw stands at the center of the city’s Market Square (rynek). Wroclaw is the largest city in western Poland and isthe site of many beautiful buildings. The Old Town Hall's long history reflects the developments that have taken place in the city over time since its initial construction. The town hall serves the city of Wroclaw and is used for civic and cultural events such as concerts held in its Great Hall. In addition to a concert hall, it houses a museum and a basement restaurant.
