Nauczysz się definiować tradycję; przedstawiać przykłady polskich tradycji; przedstawiać historię i korzene Święta Wszystkich Świętych i Dnia Zmarłych w Polsce i w innych regionach; porównywać i analizować teksty kultury. Tradycja i obyczaje Tradycja, obyczaje i zwyczaje są jednym z ważniejszych elementów budowania historii i tożsamości regionu/państwa. Jest tym, co nas odróżnia. Wg Słownika etnologicznego tradycja to: dobra kulturowe przekazywane w czasie (również w przestrzeni), przejmowane i wartościowane (...). tradycja jest przekazywana od pokolenia starszego do młodszego, od ustępujących do bezpośrednio po nich następujących (…) Konieczne są co najmniej dwa przekazy dóbr kulturowych, w których uczestniczą trzy generacje, aby móc te dobra uznać za tradycję (...) Główną jej (funkcją– KG) jest wskazana już transmisja, dzięki której społeczeństwa nie muszą już tworzyć wszystkiego od początku i mogą dysponować potencjałem stworzonym przez poprzednie pokolenia. Ponadto tradycja dostarcza systemowi społeczno‐kulturowemu niezbędnej dozy stabilizacji oraz stanowi ważną podstawę integracji, identyfikacji i poczucia wartości własnej grupy (…) Tradycja polega bowiem zarówno na bezrefleksyjnych, jak i refleksyjnych zachowaniach i postawach, a o ich rezultacie decyduje całość procesu kulturowego.

  • Summary Russia of Adam Mickiewicz and His Polish and Russian Friends
    Summary Russia of Adam Mickiewicz and his Polish and Russian friends Spatial imagology, dealing with descriptions of places in various cultural texts is a very important aspect in contemporary humanities. The aim of this doctoral thesis is to analyse the ways of creating the image of Russia in the 3rd part of Dziady and in the records of Adam Mickiewicz’s friends – philomaths and decembrists. The first chapter of the thesis discusses the strategies of description of the Russian Empire in Ustęp by Mickiewicz. The main point of the analysis are the relations between the work by the Polish poet and Russian presentations of Saint Petersburg and Tsarskoye Selo. The thesis also refers to unique observations that can be found in the La Russie en 1839 memoir by Marquis de Custine. The chapter begins with an analysis of spatial representations included in the “Road to Russia”– of a path, ocean and desert – and the basic features of the presented space: boundlessness and nondescriptiveness. This part of the thesis discusses the techniques Mickiewicz used to create landscapes (e.g. siberization of the western areas of Russia) and their symbolization. The analysis continues with a comparison of the text by Mickiewicz with the perception of the tsar and Petersburg in the Russian culture. Several motifs that accompany the descriptions of the urban space are mentioned: the motif of artificiality, ruins, mud, phantasmagoria, cities-lookalikes, theatre, army, animals etc. The chapter ends with a discussion on the strategies of description of the flood of 7/19 November 1824, which constitutes the last fragment of Ustęp – The Day before the Flood in St.

  • Timeline of Accidents
    EVENTS WE MAYBE SHOULD HAVE BEEN EXPECTING1 Let’s do some thinking about Thoreau’s accidents. Weren’t there an unusual number of accidents in this particular person’s life? As a toddler, in a backyard incident, he had chopped off his own right big toe with the help of the kindling hatchet. As a young man, he had helped a buddy set a fire in a stump to cook their fish, and the conflagration that resulted burned over an entire section of Concord’s woodlots. While living in his shanty on the pond, he badly strained his torso muscles in avoiding the kick of a horse. Then he waded out toward Clark’s Island in Boston Harbor and was almost caught and carried away as the tide came in; had he not been rescued by a passing fisherman in a rowboat, our guy would surely have drowned. Are there other occasions I haven’t taken into consideration? Over and above what was happening to him personally, there was what was going on around him. During his lifetime there was the wreck of an Irish immigrant vessel on the rocks off Cape Cod, described in CAPE COD, and there was the wreck of the vessel carrying Margaret Fuller in the surf of Fire Island, and there was the shattering explosion of a powder mill near Concord with blackened human body parts being pulled down from the branches of the surrounding trees, and there were the people riding near Concord, backwards atop the train, who got their brains batted out against a low bridge beam, and there was a fire aboard an excursion boat that destroyed the lives of several people he knew — and so on and so forth.

  • Dziady Directed by Kazimierz Dejmek – an Attempt at Demythologisation
    ACTA UNIVERSITATIS LODZIENSIS FOLIA LITTERARIA POLONICA 6(44) 2017 http://dx.doi.org/10.18778/1505-9057.44.05 Natalia Popłonikowska* Dziady directed by Kazimierz Dejmek – an attempt at demythologisation On 25 November 1967 in the National Theatre in Warsaw one of the most im- portant theatre premières in Polish history took place: Dziady (Forefathers’ Eve) directed by Kazimierz Dejmek. Through staging Dziady: Part III the Ministry of Culture and Art wanted to celebrate the October Revolution. That decision proved to be a failure on the part of the authorities, but most of all it was one of the fac- tors which spurred demonstrations and strikes. The removal of the play from the repertoire was one of the indirect causes of the events March of the following year. It is noteworthy that the director, having anticipated the possible consequ- ences of staging Dziady, decided to move the première from the 7th to the 25th of November. During rehearsals, the actors did not feel the play was supposed to provoke anyone to any demonst rations, but the growing politics-based social unrest caused some anxiety amongst them as well.1 Less than a month after the première, the play was cancelled due to the illness of the lead actor: Gustaw Holoubek. The actor’s health problems caused speculation that the play was inconvenient for the authorities due to its anti-Soviet nature. To- day, one could refer to such a situation as a marketing strategy, since the cancelling of the play and the related rumours resulted in increased attendance. The spirit of Romanticism was reborn in Poles.

  • Kartka Z Kalendarza: Halloween Po Podlasku
    Kartka z kalendarza: Halloween po podlasku... Obrzęd Dziadów Ciemno wszędzie, głucho wszędzie… Surowy listopadowy krajobraz okryty rankiem mlecznobiałą rosą, zaś wieczorem – spowity gęstą mgłą zdaje się skrywać jakaś tajemnicę. Zamierająca przyroda odsłania niewidoczną bramę łączą dwa światy – żywych i umarłych. Wiara w nadnaturalne spotkania przetrwała wieki – jej pokłosiem są współczesne Zaduszki – w kościele katolickim oraz Dymitryjewska Sobota obchodzona przez cerkiew. Usiądź wygodnie Czytelniku i wsłuchaj się w opowieść o tradycjach tak starych, jak żywa jest pamięć ludzka... Gdy opadają ostatnie liście z drzew, a świat okrywa się smutkiem i pustką, tradycja podpowiadała ludziom, że aura ta nie jest dziełem przypadku. Wówczas, gdy melancholijne wieczory wydłużają się, a księżycowa latarnia świeci pełnym blaskiem, świat staje się sceną dziwów i czarów. W tradycji ludowej wierzono, że przesilenie jesienne to czas, gdy zmarłe dusze odwiedzają swoich bliskich. Ta sama tradycja nakazywała uszanować pamięć o zmarłych krewnych, stąd na przełom października i listopada kultywowano zwyczaj zwany Dziadami (w mitologii słowiańskiej, zwłaszcza polskiej i białoruskiej, słowo dziady oprócz samego święta oznaczało duchy przodków). Historia obrzędów sięga prasłowiańskich czasów, przetrwała w nieco zmienionej formie - na Podlasiu zwyczaj ten obchodzono w Dymitryjewską Sobotę, przypadającą zawsze w ostatnią sobotę przed dniem św. Dymitra. Odprawiane wówczas obrzędy miały zapewnić przychylność i opiekę przodków, jednocześnie pomagały duszom w osiągnięciu spokoju w zaświatach. Zgodnie z tradycją w tym czasie najpierw wierni udawali się do cerkwi, gdzie odbywała się panichida (modlitwy za zmarłych), a następnie odwiedzali groby bliskich, pozostawiając żywność oraz rozpalone ognisko. Pozostawione na mogiłach niewielkie ilości miodu, kaszy, chleba, jajek czy maku stanowiły pokarm dla dusz, zaś ogień miał je ogrzać.

  • Lajkonik of Tucson – a Piece of True Poland: Constructing Polish – American Identities in an Ethnically Heterogeneous Society
    LAJKONIK OF TUCSON – A PIECE OF TRUE POLAND: CONSTRUCTING POLISH – AMERICAN IDENTITIES IN AN ETHNICALLY HETEROGENEOUS SOCIETY __________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board ___________________________________________________ in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY ___________________________________________________ by Monika Glowacka-Musial January 2010 ii © by Monika Glowacka-Musial May 2010 All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Lajkonik of Tucson – a piece of true Poland: Constructing Polish-American identities in an ethnically heterogeneous society Monika Glowacka-Musial Doctor of Philosophy Temple University, 2010 Dr. Paul Garrett Tucson, Arizona is a site of a lively Polish-American community. Initially associated with a political organization (“Solidarity Tucson”), which actively supported the Solidarity Movement throughout the 1980s, the Polish diaspora has gradually transformed into an ethnic community very much focused on maintaining its distinctive heritage. Recent formation of the Polish folkloric dance group Lajkonik was directly stimulated by the local multicultural establishment, which promotes ethnic diversity in the Old Pueblo. Having become an integral part of the Southwestern society, Lajkonik has developed a collection of identity practices, which despite diverse influences continues to reproduce Polish cultural traits. In my ethnographic account, I examine ways, by which members of the Lajkonik group construct their diasporic identities. First, I focus on the core activities of the group, which include the practice of Polish traditions, learning folk dances and songs in a wide cultural context, and negotiating the speaking of Polish. Additional analyses, based on video recordings, of Polish classes and dance rehearsals, which show the actual mechanics of the production processes, as well as the narratives of the teacher and parent of performers, further support the account of the ethnographer.

  • The Role of Fire in the Posthumous Customs of Podlachia on the Border of Poland and Belarus
    23 S TUDIA MYTHOLOGICA SLAVICA 2020 159 – 170 | https://doi.org/10.3987/SMS20202309 The Role of Fire in the Posthumous Customs of Podlachia on the Border of Poland and Belarus Joanna Wawrzeniuk In this article, I would like to describe the role of fire in the customs of All Souls’ Day in the Easter period called przewody or radunica. The burning of the fires most commonly took place overnight at home and in cemeteries to illuminate the way for the transmigra- tion of souls so they would not harm the living. The reflection of special respect for fire is known from the funeral rites from the area of Podlachia in the Middle Ages. It also served as a basic element of the ritual related to cyclical visits to the dead, as evidenced by the remains of charcoals or ash. Different kind of sources from the Middle Ages and modern times, from the region of eastern Poland (Podlachia and Belarus, in particular) shall be used to confirm that the rite lasted for many years. KEYWORDS: fire, Slavs, All Souls’ Day, Przewody, Radunica, Eastern Poland, ceme- teries, from Middle Ages to Present Times Fire served men from birth to death. It was used in annual customs, in everyday life, as well as in festivities. Fire, as the main element of the hearth, made the community of family or kin. It was also a symbol of life and existence, and an altar – an intermediary between the group of fire-users and the spirits of their ancestors, and the entire superficial world in general (Ciszewski 1903: 177 ff.).
