It is the fourth volume of our periodical with all texts written in English. We are very pleased that the idea of one exclusively English-language issue a year has appealed to both our Authors and Readers. We would like to ensure you that this idea will be continued in the following years. The presented volume concerns the topic of migration, nomadism and life in mo- tion. Although the phenomenon of migration appears in the earliest historical sourc- es, nowadays it became especially important since the European refugee crisis in 2015. However, it cannot be forgotten that migration is not only a significant historical and political issue, but also an extremely interesting cultural, psychological and social phenomenon. The experience of being a migrant is now one of the reappearing topics in modern literature, art and film. On the other hand, the Nomadic people are still among the main interests of the modern anthropologists. The first text presented in this volume focuses on the problem of migration of objects and ideas between Europe and Japan in the nineteenth century. The next ar- ticle concerns the topic of the comatose body from philosophical perspective. From the subsequent we can learn how the problem of refugees is shown in contemporary Polish literature for children. Next two articles focus on the Holocaust in literature – the first one in the novel by Mikołaj GrynbergOskarżam Auschwitz. Opowieści rodzinne [I Blame Auschwitz. Family Tales], and the second – in Leopold Bucz- kowski’s Black Torrent. After the article about the post-colonial identity in Salman Rushdie’s The Moor’s Last Sigh, there appears the piece considering Icelandic musical documentaries. Next three articles focus on cinematography – the first one concerns surrealist ideas in Japanese avant-garde film, the second - Nordic melodramas and sexploitation films, and the third one - pornographic scenes in cult films. We will also investigate the problem of postmodern nomadism in French science fiction games, as well as the question of possible application of the relative acculturation extended model in social sciences. Furthermore, the following articles are about the transmi- gration of souls and vegetarianism in Empedocles of Akragas, as well as the history of the travel of the Japanese sword. The last article introduces the world of Mayan 5 mythology, especially the depictions of the journey to the underworld presented on the funeral pottery. We hope you will find this volume interesting and pleasant to read. MASKA’s Editorial Staff Leszek Sosnowski Objects and ideas. Japan and Europe in the nineteenth century Faculty of Philosophy, Jagiellonian University Opening a closed Japan Starting in the middle of the nineteenth century, great quantities of cultural goods began to flow from Japan to Europe. At the same time, exhibitions were organized and books and magazines published with the aim of making this culture comprehen- sible to the Europeans. Japan became fashionable in Europe, and the fashion quickly developed into a fascination with this country. As a result, this period in Europe is known as the era of Japan and its culture, as expressed by Japonisme and Japonism, the new French and English terms coined for this occasion. These new terms basically referred to art or, in the broader sense, to artistic culture1. It is possible to speak about two aspects of their meaning. On the one hand there were the internal qualities and artistic and aesthetic values of Japanese art and craftsman- ship which were new to the inhabitants of Europe; on the other there was the cultural openness of those who perceived these values, appreciated them, and became fascinat- ed with this new sensitivity. Japanese art, in the form of screens, fans, porcelain, and weapons, strongly influenced European artists, critics, and collectors. Among these items printed or painted ukiyo-e attained extraordinary popularity and significance. Japanese culture was presented in many ways, through various cultural events that captured the imagination of Europeans, including exhibitions, fairs, and international expositions, and shops and galleries of a local character. These were enthusiastically discussed, described, and reviewed, highlighting the novelty and originality of this 1 Even if its political aspect was equally significant. See Shimamoto, Mayako; Ito, Koji; Sugita, Yoney- uki et. al. Historical Dictionary of Japanese Foreign Policy. London: Littlefield Publishers, 2015, p. 81. 7 LESZEK SOSNOWSKI culture. These events deeply influenced the public imagination, creating an exotic cli- mate but also accustoming the public to the new phenomenon. All of these factors in combination influenced the creation of a new artistic and aesthetic taste in Europe of this period, contributing to changes in the reciprocal relationships between countries and nations. Regarding phenomena with roots in Japanese sensitivity, it suffices to mention post-impressionism, the Arts and Crafts Movement, and, in a somewhat longer perspective, Art Nouveau or Cubism. Undoubtedly one can speak here of a transcultural phenomenon on a scale which surpassed later manifestations. In nineteenth-century European-Japanese relations everything was new and “first.” The 1860s saw the first World Fair in London (1862), prepared by Rutherford Alcock, the first English diplomat in Japan, a lover and collector of Japanese art. The first Japanese mission in Europe, led by Takenouchi Yasunori, also visited the Fair. The Japanese part of the exhibition proved to be one of the most important in Eu- ropean culture due to the presentation of Japanese art2. This success was perpetuated. Five years later another World Fair (1867) was held in Paris, where Japan presented a broad spectrum of its art at its exhibition pavilion. One of the most important cultural events of this time was the establishment of the Japanese Native Village in Knightsbridge near London in 1885‒87. About a hundred Japanese, both men and women, lived in a village that served as a model of traditional Japanese

  • Presocratic Philosophy
    Presocratic Philosophy First published Sat Mar 10, 2007 The Presocratics were 6th and 5th century BCE Greek thinkers who introduced a new way of thinking about the world and the place of human beings in it. They were recognized in antiquity as the first philosophers and scientists of the Western tradition. This article is a general introduction to the most important Presocratic philosophers and the main themes of Presocratic thought... The standard collection of texts for the Presocratics is that by H. Diels revised by W. Kranz (abbreviated as DK). In it, each thinker is assigned an identifying chapter number (e.g., Heraclitus is 22, Anaxagoras 59); then the reports from ancient authors about that thinker's life and thought are collected in a section of ―testimonies‖ (A) and numbered in order, while the passages the editors take to be direct quotations are collected and numbered in a section of ―fragments‖ (B). Alleged imitations in later authors are sometimes added in a section labeled C. Thus, each piece of text can be uniquely identified: DK 59B12.3 identifies line 3 of Anaxagoras fragment 12; DK 22A1 identifies testimonium 1 on Heraclitus. 1. Who Were the Presocratic Philosophers? Our understanding of the Presocratics is complicated by the incomplete nature of our evidence. Most of them wrote at least one ―book‖ (short pieces of prose writing, it seems, or, in some cases, poems of not great length), but no complete work survives. Instead, we are dependent on later philosophers, historians, and compilers of collections of ancient wisdom for disconnected quotations (fragments) and reports about their views (testimonia).

  • Woody Loves Ingmar
    1 Woody loves Ingmar Now that, with Blue Jasmine , Woody Allen has come out … … perhaps it’s time to dissect all his previous virtuoso creative adapting. I’m not going to write about the relationship between Vicky Christina Barcelona and Jules et Jim . ————— Somewhere near the start of Annie Hall , Diane Keaton turns up late for a date at the cinema with Woody Allen, and they miss the credits. He says that, being anal, he has to see a film right through from the very start to the final finish, so it’s no go for that movie – why don’t they go see The Sorrow and the Pity down the road? She objects that the credits would be in Swedish and therefore incomprehensible, but he remains obdurate, so off they go, even though The Sorrow and the Pity is, at over four hours, twice the length of the film they would have seen. 2 The film they would have seen is Ingmar Bergman’s Face to Face , with Liv Ullmann as the mentally-disturbed psychiatrist – you see the poster behind them as they argue. The whole scene is a gesture. Your attention is being drawn to an influence even while that influence is being denied: for, though I don’t believe Bergman has seen too much Allen, Allen has watched all the Bergman there is, several times over. As an example: you don’t often hear Allen’s early comedy Bananas being referred to as Bergman-influenced: but not only does its deranged Fidel Castro-figure proclaim that from now on the official language of the revolutionised country will be Swedish, but in the first reel there’s a straight Bergman parody.

  • Martin Scorsese Presents: Masterpieces of Polish Cinema Throughout North America
    INTRODUCTION In December 2011, filmmaker Martin Scorsese traveled to Poland to accept an honorary doctor- al degree from The Polish National Film, Television, and Theatre School in Łódź. There, Mr. Scors- ese met with Jędrzej Sabliński (a digital restoration expert, now with DI Factory), and reviewed a list of new digital restorations of Polish films. In the months following this visit, with the help of The Film Foundation, the two men came up with the idea of a North American tour of a series of restored Polish cinema classics. From an extensive catalogue of digitally restored films, Mr. Scorsese chose twenty-one masterpieces. The Film Foundation executive director, Margaret Bodde then worked with Mr. Sabliński to develop the program and recommended Milestone Films as the North American distributor for the series. Milestone will be touring the 21-film retrospective Martin Scorsese Presents: Masterpieces of Polish Cinema throughout North America. Premiering in New York City at the Film Society of Lincoln Center on February 5th, 2014, the series features films from some of Poland’s most accom- plished and lauded filmmakers, spanning the period from 1957–1987. Curated by Mr. Scorsese, each film has been digitally re-mastered and brilliantly restored on newly subtitled DCPs. The program was created and organized by Mr. Scorsese’s non-profit organization, The Film Foundation. 3 BIST, SIMPORE, TEMPORE, A STATEMENT FROM MARTIN SCORSESE Um volum, audae laccae seque natur, comnis ducienimus excest rendercillam laccupi endicit In 2011, I had the opportunity to visit the Polish National Film School in Łódź, Poland, at the atusda vitisitatur rentem vent.

PRESOCRATIC FRAGMENTS IN PERIPATETIC SOURCES AFTER ARISTOTLE n ancient philosophy the fragmentary text is a crucial element of Itransmission and scholarly discussion, and requires special attention for its complex relation to a lost concrete whole (i.e. the actual text on a physical carrier) and a presumed doctrinal whole (the set of ideas arranged into a theoretical construct).1 They are, so to speak, defined as much by the absence of text as they are by the presence of it. The three main points I will make are interconnected and especially relevant for the Presocratic material preserved in Peripatetic sources after Aristotle: firstly, I will ask what we mean by ‘fragment’ as a way of focusing briefly on the underlying metaphor of pieces broken off from a material object – a notion which I believe can sometimes be misleading; secondly, I will recall how the long- standing categories of Diels (‘testimonium’, ‘fragment’ and ‘imitation’, labelled A/B/C in Diels-Kranz) have become criticised as no longer ade- quate, where I will focus especially on the interpretation of testimonia as the more problematic category. These two points constitute part I of the paper. 1 After decades of engaging with philosophical fragments it was a great pleasure to pres- ent this short paper on philosophical fragments to fellow-fragmentologists (a term I first heard from Dr Paul Keyser).
