    Mapping Domeyko: A visual arts project inspired by the expeditions of Ignacy Domeyko Ignacio Acosta (University of Brighton, U. K.), Jakub Bojczuk (London, U. K.) Chile, with its rocky cordillera, overflowing with mineral wealth, holds the largest reserves of copper on the planet Earth. This mineral kingdom was yet to be discovered in 1838 when Domeyko reached Chile, as his arrival coincided with a remarkable phase of development in copper and silver mining in Chile. The country presented itself as an intriguing and exciting land, full of new discoveries and adventures. While main purpose of Domeyko’s work in Chile was to take up a teaching position in Coquimbo, which he carried out with care and dedication, he took full advantage of every opportunity that presented itself in order to explore the Andes mountains. This helped him collect educational material for his students but also satisfied his thirst for knowledge. As Paz Domeyko notes ‘from the moment of his arrival, the nearby mountains and the mines they contained had beckoned to his avid curiosity. No sooner was the school year over than Ignacio left on his first long-awaited excursion to explore them’1. In his numerous field expeditions, particularly frequent during his time teaching in Coquimbo between 1838 and 1847, Domeyko visited, amongst others: the silver mine in Arqueros (1838), the Carrizal copper mine (1840), the Chañarcillo silver mine (1840), the San Pedro Nolasco silver mines (1841), the El Teniente and El Volcano mines (1842) and smaller mines found during his journey to Araucania (1844–1845). These journeys, together with other trips to the Andes carried out less frequently after his relocation to Santiago, resulted in many detailed scientific analysis and publications.

A story by the President of the Institute of National Remembrance appears in the latest instalment of the "We Are Telling the World about Poland" series. This weekend, fifty media outlets around the world are publishing “Polish Innovators Have Changed the World”, another text by Jarosław Szarek in the “We Are Telling the World about Poland” project. This initiative of the New Media Institute is supported by the IPN, Foreign Ministry, National Bank and Polish Press Agency. France, Germany, Italy, Spain and Russia will be told about Poland, but the story is also headed for more exotic places, such as Venezuela, Kuwait or Singapore. This weekend, France will be reading it in the “Special Pologne” insert in the “L’Opinion” daily. President Szarek gives examples of Polish explorers, innovators and inventors, “Poles spurred the development of electronics, chemistry and aviation. They constructed portable mine detectors and broke the German Enigma, accelerating the end of the WW2,” writes the IPN’s President, and adds, In the early 1980s, when the world watched the struggle of Polish “Solidarity” and newspapers carried the name of John Paul II on their front pages, only few people knew that 90% of stainless steel almost everyone used daily, including in their kitchens, was produced through a process developed by the US-based Polish engineer Tadeusz Sendzimir, the “Edison of metallurgy .

  • Litwa Nad Wartą? Wokół Pierwszego Pomysłu Pana Tadeusza
    Polonistyka. Innowacje Numer 9, 2019 Litwa nad Wartą? Wokół pierwszego pomysłu Pana Tadeusza Lithuania on the Warta river? Around the first idea of Pan Tadeusz Elżbieta Lijewska Uniwersytet im. Adama Mickiewicza w Poznaniu Abstract: The article refers to the hypothesis that Pan Tadeusz by Adam Mickiewicz had its origins in Wielkopolska (Greater Poland region). It reminds the source of the hypothesis and the attitude of researchers of the 19th and 20th centuries towards it. The author emphasises the significance of the fact that Mickiewicz met his brother Franciszek, and some other Lithuanians, in Łukowo on the Warta river. The author of this article draws our attention to an older version of the beginning of the poem entitled Żegota and connects the version with Ignacy Domeyko. Key words: Adam Mickiewicz, Pan Tadeusz, Ignacy Domeyko, November Uprising (1830-1831) Streszczenie: Artykuł nawiązuje do hipotezy wielkopolskich początków Pana Tadeusza Adama Mickiewicza. Przypomina źródła tej hipotezy oraz stanowiska wobec niej badaczy w wieku XIX i XX. Autorka podkreśla znaczenie spotkania z bratem, Franciszkiem Mickiewiczem oraz innymi Litwinami podczas pobytu poety w Łukowie nad Wartą. Zwraca uwagę na starszą wersję początku poematu, zatytułowanego Żegota, i wiąże ją z osobą Ignacego Domeyki. Słowa kluczowe: Adam Mickiewicz, Pan Tadeusz, Wielkopolska, Ignacy Domeyko, powstanie listopadowe Janusz Ruszkowski, kronikarz pobytu Adama Mickiewicza w Wielkopolsce, zwracał kiedyś uwagę na pewną zadziwiającą sytuację dotyczącą tego okresu życia poety. Z jednej bowiem strony żadnemu fragmentowi biogra- fii Mickiewicza nie poświęcono tylu osobnych publikacji, z drugiej nato- miast badania te mają prawie wyłącznie charakter regionalny, tak jakby siedem miesięcy spędzonych w Poznańskiem (sierpień 1831 – luty 1832) interesowało tylko Wielkopolan.
