Asnykâ•Žs Notebook of Rhymes
ACTA UNIVERSITATIS LODZIENSIS Folia Litteraria Polonica 4(55) 2019 http://dx.doi.org/10.18778/1505-9057.55.02 Tadeusz Budrewicz* https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4557-7260 Asnyk’s notebook of rhymes Usage of the notebook In the Jagiellonian Library in Krakow, among Adam Asnyk’s preserved documents, under the reference number 7185 I, is the poet’s notebook entitled “with sets of words which rhyme.”1 Maria Szypowska included a photograph of a fragment of a page from it in her book entitled Asnyk znany i nieznany2. It is impossible to define when the note- book was created. At the end of the notebook, the poet wrote “21 January” (sh. 57) and “Thursday, 7 December” with a note “I gave for charcoals 1 PLN” (sh. 57). The mana- gerial nature of the note does not help in establishing its chronology. Neither does the note on sheet 56, where the poet included an “upside down” stanza of a poem, as it was most probably an attempt at a work he eventually abandoned. Some chronology may be defined through the fact that in the record of words which rhymed, Asnyk wrote: * Professor, Pedagogical University of Cracow, Chair of Polish Literature of the 20th Century, ul.

The Use of the Polish Folk Music Elements and the Fantasy Elements in the Polish Fantasy on Original Themes In
THE USE OF THE POLISH FOLK MUSIC ELEMENTS AND THE FANTASY ELEMENTS IN THE POLISH FANTASY ON ORIGINAL THEMES IN G-SHARP MINOR FOR PIANO AND ORCHESTRA OPUS 19 BY IGNACY JAN PADEREWSKI Yun Jung Choi, B.A., M.M. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2007 APPROVED: Adam Wodnicki, Major Professor Jeffrey Snider, Minor Professor Joseph Banowetz, Committee Member Graham Phipps, Director of Graduate Studies in the College of Music James C. Scott, Dean of the College of Music Sandra L. Terrell, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Choi, Yun Jung, The Use of the Polish Folk Music Elements and the Fantasy Elements in the Polish Fantasy on Original Themes in G-sharp Minor for Piano and Orchestra, Opus 19 by Ignacy Jan Paderewski. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), May 2007, 105 pp., 5 tables, 65 examples, references, 97 titles. The primary purpose of this study is to address performance issues in the Polish Fantasy, Op. 19, by examining characteristics of Polish folk dances and how they are incorporated in this unique work by Paderewski. The study includes a comprehensive history of the fantasy in order to understand how Paderewski used various codified generic aspects of the solo piano fantasy, as well as those of the one-movement concerto introduced by nineteenth-century composers such as Weber and Liszt. Given that the Polish Fantasy, Op. 19, as well as most of Paderewski’s compositions, have been performed more frequently in the last twenty years, an analysis of the combination of the three characteristic aspects of the Polish Fantasy, Op.19 - Polish folk music, the generic rhetoric of a fantasy and the one- movement concerto - would aid scholars and performers alike in better understanding the composition’s engagement with various traditions and how best to make decisions about those traditions when approaching the work in a concert setting. -

Michał Haake, the Symbolism of Adam Asnyk with Muse by Jacek
RIHA Journal 0038 | 12 April 2012 The symbolism of Adam Asnyk with Muse by Jacek Malczewski Michał Haake Originally published as: "Symbolika Portretu Adama Asnyka z Muzą Jacka Malczewskiego," in: Quart 2 (2011), 45-61. Extended and revised version. Editing and translation managed by: Katarzyna Jagodzińska, Międzynarodowe Centrum Kultury / International Cultural Centre, Krakow Abstract The essay's goal is to interpret Jacek Malczewski's picture Adam Asnyk with Muse (1894-1897) as a symbolic work. The main argument is that the painting does not depict a scene with a poet being inspired by a muse. The starting point of the analysis is the conclusion that the Muse is not playing the lyre she is holding and that the wings of Hermes are attached only to one leg. The role of the instrument is crucial for the interpretation of the painting not only because it is not used in accordance with its function but also because of the planimetric as well as semantic relationships with other elements of the picture, above all with one of the sheets of paper on the table and the scythe held by a warrior in the spectral pageant. The Muse presses the sheet with the lyre, lifting it and directing its sharp point towards Asnyk's head. The sheet is made similar in its form to the scythe above it, directed towards the manacled young men above the poet. The comparison between the figures introduced in this way suggests that the real nature of the inspiration is destructive for the poet. A comprehensive interpretation of the relationship thus constituted leads to the conclusion that the symbolic meaning of the painting is based on the opposition between the conventional iconography of a poet and the idea of creation conceived as a liberation of the artist from traditional and ossified symbolism (music, the wings of Hermes). -

I laughed and told him that as UM was the only place I had applied to, I’d likely accept. While I wouldn’t necessarily recommend that unorthodox approach to others, I have no regrets. My experience at Michigan has been a joy, and I am profoundly grateful to have had the opportunity to work with a number of exceptional scholars. My committee has been supportive from start to finish. First and foremost, I need to thank my advisor, Brian Porter-Szűcs, for his mentorship over the years. Brian supervised my undergraduate honors thesis at UM, and it was this experience that convinced me I wanted to pursue a career in history. I appreciate the combination of intellectual rigor, professionalism, and compassion that Brian brings to graduate mentoring, and I’ve no doubt that I’ll draw from his strong example as I transition to my next role as assistant professor. -

The Cultural Comparative Study of the Roma Community and Bohemians
138 | Justyna Matkowska Kultura i Edukacja 207 No. 4 (118), pp. 138–150 DOI: 10.15804/kie.2017.04.10 www.kultura-i-edukacja.pl Justyna Matkowska The Cultural Comparative Study of the Roma Community and Bohemians. Prolegomena abstract The submitted article is based on a fragment of a thesis entitled “The Image of the Roma and Artistic Bohemia in the Literature of the Young Poland”. The subject matter of the research is the description of two communities living in the period of the Young Poland: the Roma people, and Bohemians. The adopted research method embraces the range of broadly defined anthropological research, including analysis and interpretation of texts in a cultural context, and, above all, various aspects of life referring to Bohemians and the Roma community in Poland at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. The research objective of this article is to show the similarities and differences between Bohemians of the Young Poland and the Roma living in this period, concerning originality of their lifestyle, customs, outfit and other phenomena. The in-depth analysis of the life aspects of the Roma and Bohemians from the Young Poland has demonstrated the similarities and differences between the two groups. They both functioned as “others” who had no relationship with the society. They were accompanied by a sense of loneliness, outsiderness, consciousness of rejection, tragedy of their situation and a sense of incomprehension and injustice. Keywords: bohemia, Romani people, Gypsies, the Young Poland, culture According to the Practical Dictionary of Contemporary Polish, the word Roma is derived from the Greek athinganos and means a person who does not want to touch or to be touched. -
Core Curriculum for Polish Expatriate Students Attending Schools Outside the Territory of the Republic of Poland
Core Curriculum for Polish expatriate students attending schools outside the territory of the Republic of Poland Numerous Polish children are growing up and attending educational institutions outside the territory of the Republic of Poland. Some of these students and their families, while respecting the culture and traditions of their country of residence, intend to promulgate, expand, and improve their knowledge of Polish language and of Polish culture. The achievement of this objective is facilitated by Polish expatriate schools operating in numerous countries. For the benefit of teachers and students of such schools, the Ministry of Education of the Republic of Poland, acting in cooperation with foreign-based Polish educational milieus, developed in 2010 the Core Curriculum for Polish expatriate students attending schools outside the territory of the Republic of Poland. The 2020 version of the Core Curriculum is actually an updated version of the Core Curriculum published in 2010. The 2020 version of the Core Curriculum for Polish expatriate students attending schools outside the territory of the Republic of Poland contains an updated language, literature, culture, and history learning content . Core Curriculum is structured to indicate what students shall know and what skill set students shall have to complete given stage of education: early school education, primary school, high school. Language skills are the basic competence on each stage, as they are necessary to learn Polish literature, history, and culture. Requirements have been outlined for the following three age groups: 5-9 years, 10-13 years, and 14 years and over, based on the perception capabilities of students and their cognitive development. -

It contains biographical notes and description of works of most important classicists at the Jagiellonian University, who lived in the 19th and in the 20th century. The scholars presented in the ar- ticle are: Kazimierz Morawski, Tadeusz Sinko, Seweryn Hammer, Leon Stern- bach, Wincenty Lutosławski, Ryszard Gansiniec, Stanisław Skimina, Władysław Madyda, Romuald Turasiewicz, Adam Stefan Miodoński, Gustaw Edward Przy- chocki, Władysław Strzelecki, Kazimierz Kumaniecki, Mieczysław Brożek, Mar- ian Plezia, Kazimierz Korus, Józef Korpanty and Stanisław Stabryła. KEY WORDS: history of classical scholarship, classical philology, Jagiellonian University Research on classical antiquity at the Jagiellonian University dates back to the 15th century and has been inseparably intertwined with humanism. The desire to promote classical studies among the younger generation as a discipline that permeates all other scholarly fields was great among scholars already at the beginning of the Kraków university. Numerous lecturers were active at the university in the Middle Ages, the Renais- sance and later, mostly teaching Latin and Greek, but also devoting their energy to editing ancient texts or translating them into Polish.
