  • Dyrektor Teatru – Przywódca Czy Menedżer?
    Joanna Zając DYREKTOR TEATRU – PRZYWÓDCA CZY MENEDŻER? Niniejsza publikacja jest zapisem wywiadów przeprowadzonych w 2004 i 2005 ro- ku z dyrektorami trzech teatrów instytucjonalnych, repertuarowych. Swoje doświad- czenia na polu zarządzania teatrem w obecnych warunkach gospodarczych, poglądy na temat zadań stojących przed dyrektorem, a także swoje plany i ambicje zawodowe przedstawili w nich: Krystyna Meissner – dyrektor wrocławskiego Teatru Współcze- snego1, Krzysztof Orzechowski – dyrektor Teatru im. Juliusza Słowackiego w Krako- wie2, oraz Jerzy Fedorowicz – dyrektor Teatru Ludowego w Krakowie Nowej Hucie3. Wywiady zostały zrealizowane w ramach przygotowań do pracy magisterskiej Dy- rektor teatru – przywódca czy menedżer? Specyfika wybranych problemów zarządzania personelem w teatrach. Powstaje ona jako wynik zainteresowania obszarem zarządza- nia personelem w instytucjach kultury, wśród których teatry stanowią grupę szczegól- ną. Dzieje się tak ze względu na specyfikę działalności tych organizacji, w których aktorzy, reżyserzy, scenografowie, tancerze, autorzy teksów, kompozytorzy, muzycy, choreografowie są nie tylko twórcami, ale także członkami zespołów, zwierzchnikami albo podwładnymi, pracownikami etatowymi lub współpracownikami. Powstaje więc pytanie, czy zatrudnianie artystów implikuje szczególne zadania i metody postępowa- nia zarządzającego? Czy rodzi to napięcia i konflikty, inne niż w organizacjach rynko- wych lub pozostałych instytucjach kultury? Jakie w związku z tym powinny być kwali- fikacje i kompetencje zarządzającego?

  • Stereotypes of Jews in Poland in the Context of Political Antisemitism
    Stereotypy wzajemnego postrzegania w świadomości pokoleniowej 1 Jerzy Sielski, Jan Długosz Academy Stereotypes of Jews in Poland in the Context of Political Antisemitism The perception of ethnic minorities and nationalities has its own longstanding tradition. The stereotype of Jews is linked to the phenomenon of antisemitism. One of the most well-known definitions of antisemitism belongs to Jean-Paul Sartre: “Antisemitism seeks to find, in the existence of Jews, the cause of all or some failures, personal and collective; and the belief that it is possible to solve problems through partially or totally depriving Jews of their rights, through excluding them from the economy and society, driving them out of the country or even extermination "1. Alina Cała proposes a wider definition in her monograph Żyd - wróg odwieczny? Antysemityzm w Polsce i jego źródła (The Jew – the Eternal Enemy? Antisemitism in Poland and Its Sources): Antisemitism – an ideology, a world view or political current, containing a complex prejudice, justifying a hostile attitude to Jews. The formation of the concept of nationalism and totalitarianism was based on a tradition of anti-Judaism. Sometimes, it is referred to as racism, incorrectly singling out Jews as an anthropological race. In a broader sense – the defining of social attitudes, manifesting themselves in a world view in which an important role is played by aggression, verbal or physical, disapproving generally of and showing prejudice against Jews, and justifying such conduct through religious, nationalist, racist, political or economic reasons2. Daniel Jonah Goldhagen, in his book Hitler’s Willing Executioners, Ordinary Germans and the Holocaust, in which he tries to understand the conduct and mentality of thousands of Germans who became the perpetrators of genocide, distinguishes three dimensions of antisemitism3.

  • The Post-Traumatic Theatre of Grotowski and Kantor Advance Reviews
    The Post-traumatic Theatre of Grotowski and Kantor Advance Reviews “A brilliant cross-disciplinary comparative analysis that joins a new path in theatre studies, revitalizing the artistic heritage of two great twentieth-century masters: Tadeusz Kantor and Jerzy Grotowski.” —Professor Antonio Attisani, Department of Humanities, University of Turin “Among the landmarks of postwar avant-garde theatre, two Polish works stand out: Grotowski’s Akropolis and Kantor’s Dead Class. Magda Romanska scrupulously corrects misconceptions about these crucial works, bringing to light linguistic elements ignored by Anglophone critics and an intense engagement with the Holocaust very often overlooked by their Polish counterparts. This is vital and magnificently researched theatre scholarship, at once alert to history and to formal experiment. Romanska makes two pieces readers may think they know newly and urgently legible.” —Martin Harries, author of “Forgetting Lot’s Wife: On Destructive Spectatorship,” University of California, Irvine “As someone who teaches and researches in the areas of Polish film and theatre – and European theatre/theatre practice/translation more broadly – I was riveted by the book. I couldn’t put it down. There is no such extensive comparative study of the work of the two practitioners that offers a sustained and convincing argument for this. The book is ‘leading edge.’ Romanska has the linguistic and critical skills to develop the arguments in question and the political contexts are in general traced at an extremely sophisticated level. This is what lends the writing its dynamism.” —Dr Teresa Murjas, Director of Postgraduate Research, Department of Film, Theatre and Television, University of Reading “This is a lucidly and even beautifully written book that convincingly argues for a historically and culturally contextualized understanding of Grotowski’s and Kantor’s performances.

    Introduction : really existing democracy What was to be the function of political theatre in Poland aft er 1989? Following four decades of Soviet-enforced communism, which included mass censorship, anti-democratic bureaucratization, systemic corrup- tion, imperialist militarization and the brutal disciplining of political dissidents, this question formed a vital part of the ten-year anniversary celebration in 2013 of Warsaw’s Instytut Teatralne (Th eatre Institute). Th is cultural institution houses the largest physical and digital archives of contemporary theatre in Poland and is intended to support research and education and prompt public debate. Teatr , one of the country’s leading journals, devoted a special issue to mark the anniversary, includ- ing a number of interviews and articles considering the Institute’s role in the formation, analysis and documentation of contemporary and historical Polish theatre. Teatr ’s chief editor, Jacek Kopciński, criticized the Institute’s director, Maciej Nowak, for instigating ‘a permanent cul- tural revolution’ in his unconventional programming and commission- ing of publications, seminars and workshops. By this, Kopciński meant that theatre studies at the Institute has been defi ned since its inception primarily on the grounds of feminist, gender and queer theory, which was exemplifi ed in the Institute’s fl agship publication series Inna Scena (Another Scene). Kopciński suggested that such strands of philosophy, theory, activism and criticism were too restricted and that the Institute should also refer to mainstream modes of thinking about the theatre and the world that are ‘less eccentric and, for many, less ideologised’ ( 2013 : 8). 2 After ’89 In this argumentation, Kopciński articulates popular anxieties around Polish cultural and national identity through an exclusionary process of community formation that implies an ‘authentic’ audience that represents a general population who do not face matters relating to gen- der and sexuality as central to their experiences of social marginalization.

  • In the Sphere of Reception, Revisions and Inspirations
    IN THE SPHERE OF RECEPTION, REVISIONS AND INSPIRATIONS Janusz Degler (University of Wrocław) Witkacy around the World Translated by Tomasz Wiśniewski In the year 1962, Konstanty Puzyna edited and published a two-volume collection of Stanisław Ignacy Witkiewicz’s plays. It contained twenty-two texts, which were mostly unknown as they had been neither printed nor performed (in his lifetime, Witkacy ma- naged to publish only six plays, and the publication of one of them was not fully com- pleted1). Puzyna’s edition turned out to be pivotal for the reception of Witkiewicz’s work: in the next few years, Witkacy became one of the most important Polish playwrights, and his plays were produced by professional, student and amateur companies2. Witkacy’s plays were made available to the wide world, and they soon attracted the attention of translators, critics, literary scholars, theorists, and theater directors in many countries around the world. In 1963, the journal Pour l’Art (No. 8990) published Eric Veaux’s translation of an excerpt from The Introduction to the Theory of Pure Form in the Theatre. Nearly at the same time, the very same excerpt – with an introduction by Konstanty Puzyna – was published as “Un nuovo tipo di drammaturgia” in the special issue on Polish theater of the Italian monthly Sipario (no 208–209). Another section of The Introduction was included in Odette Aslan’s anthology L’Art du théâtre (Paris, 1963), where the history of theatrical thinking from ancient times to the present was discussed. A year later, the Yugoslav anthology Avangardna drama (Belgrade, 1964) edited by Slobodan Selenić, included the play The Madman and the Nun in Petar Vuj- ćić’s Serbo-Croat translation.

  • 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.

  • Ancient Plays on Stage in Communist Poland
    DOI: https://doi.org/10.4312/keria.20.3.41-74 Elżbieta Olechowska Ancient Plays on Stage in Communist Poland We reached this shameful impasse, when the entire world drama, from Aeschylus to Shakespeare, to Brecht and Io- nesco, became a body of allusions to People’s Poland. (…) I dream of a form of socialist life that will abolish the un- bearable and destructive state of affairs, where the authori- ties see cultural creations and their reception as a constant threat requiring the use of force. Leszek Kołakowski1 Using ancient drama as a vehicle for propaganda or as a weapon in the ideo- logical struggle is neither simple nor predictably successful. The Greek and Roman plays have been established in European culture for millennia, their ideas, conflicts, characters remain part of human psyche “for all seasons”; whether interpreted from the point of view of the past, present, or future, they have been used “for and even against” conflicting ideologies, as per Lech Wałęsa’s famous bon mot.2 Intuitively, we would be inclined to lay such at- tempts at politicising antiquity at the door of the anti-communist intellectual opposition, who knew their classics almost as well as they knew their Pol- ish Romantic bards, rather than blame “working class” politicians for such 1 Leszek Kołakowski (1927–2009) was Polish philosopher and historian of ideas. This is his state- ment at the meeting of the Union of Polish Writers held on 29 February 1968, devoted to the banning of Adam Mickiewicz’s Dziady [The Forefathers] directed by Kazimierz Dejmek at the National Theatre [Teatr Narodowy] in Warsaw; quoted according to Marta Fik, Kultura polska po Jałcie: Kronika lat 1944–1981, Vol.
