A historical approach to the ventricular system of the brain
Authors: Duque-Parra Jorge Eduardo , Barco-Ríos John , García-Aguirre Johnny Fernando
Published: November 2017

Introducción. El sistema ventricular encefálico se conoció, con parcialidad, en el siglo III a.C., fecha desde la que diversos investigadores contribuyeron a una mejor comprensión de dicho sistema, desentrañando sus ubicaciones en el sistema nervioso central y relacionándolos con ciertos aspectos funcionales que surgieron de conceptos filosóficos. Esto permitió un acercamiento más objetivo hacia las cavitaciones relacionadas con la formación de líquido cerebroespinal.Objetivo. Referenciar, de forma cronológica, los conceptos más trascendentes de la historia del sistema ventricular encefálico.Materiales y métodos. Se consultaron diversas fuentes bibliográficas relacionadas con el sistema ventricular, para después ordenarlas según su cronología, de modo que se concluyera con una aproximación más concreta de la morfología funcional del sistema ventricular.Conclusión. Aristóteles fue el primero en abordar el sistema ventricular encefálico, de modo que, conforme el paso de los años, su conocimiento se fue depurando en cuanto a organización, función y número de cavidades, hasta llegar a proponer la existencia de ocho ventrículos. En la actualidad se reconocen cinco ventrículos, de los cuales cuatro son componentes encefálicos: dos en cerebro, uno en diencéfalo, otro en tronco encefálico y un quinto en la parte terminal de la médula espinal.

Metaphysical essentialism – the pictorial harmony of Béla Tarr’s films
Authors: Valkola Jarmo
Published: November 2017

In the following article, Jarmo Valkola investigates the originality of the Hungarian director Béla Tarr’s filmmaking practice. Tarr represents European pictorialism that is motivated by the commitment to develop and increase the function and effectiveness of images, sounds and performances that aesthetically formulate, translate and change the effects of contemporary cinema to higher dimensions and qualities of art. Tarr emphasises the selective and manipulative role of the camera in orchestrating his narrative concerns. The significance of the form comes forward, and the photographic dimension of the narrative creates static and momentarily captured intensities. Like Jancsó before him, Tarr also invests the narrative with plan-sequences. Some of them can be very long, involving continuous and intricate camera movements, like simultaneous track-tilt-pans, compounded by the ‘virtual’ movement of the omnipresent camera. Tarr’s filmic iconography sets standards for pictorial filmmaking in the sense of an increasingly personal touch of dramatics defining and distilling a cinematic language that is endless in its search for the almost silent colloquy between the artist’s visions and aspirations. Sátántangó, Werckmeister Harmonies, The Man from London, and The Turin Horse are the films referred in this article.
The evidence of the avant-garde film
Authors: Kókai Károly
Published: November 2017

The Hungarian neo-avant-garde appeared in such diverse artistic fields as fine art, conceptual and visual literature, happenings, theatre performance and film. For the avant-gardists Tibor Hajas, Miklós Erdély and Tamás Szentjóby, film was both a theoretical and a practical issue. There are films documenting avant-garde activities, and there are films that are truly avant-garde. Thus, the field of film seems to provide a considerable amount of material through which scholarship can evaluate the Hungarian neo-avant-garde. This paper discusses how the evidence of film fits the interpretation of the Hungarian neo-avant-garde as belonging to the “second public”, as part of cultural opposition, and as something forbidden.
Reality and methods in documentary filmmaking
Authors: Tarnay László
Published: November 2017

The method and the formal-technical language of documentary filmmaking have expanded so much that the traditional divide between documentary and fiction cannot be reasonably held. Animation has also claimed its place among the possible devices of a documentary film. Consequently, a documentary no longer wears its ’truthfulness’ on its sleeve. The cues of documentary that were used historically, like archival footage or talking heads, are eclipsed by cognitively engaging interactive camera work provoking viewer’s identification. The dilemma that a would-be documentary filmmaker is necessarily confronted with is between perceptual realism and representational realism. An image cannot show the ’original’: it can only declare it in a meta-communication about the image. In the history of film the self-referential ‘dead-end’ of the ‘ontological’ image is expressed by a camera filming the ‘eye’ of another camera. The self-referentiality of documentary filmmaking also entails that documenting is necessarily gappy: it always leaves certain things unsaid or hidden. The story it tells has its own important lacunae. It is the Unsaid of a documentary, and not so much the representation’s truthfulness and that constitutes the ethical source for the viewer.
A tetrahidrobiopterin (BH4)-deficientia diagnosztikája és kezelése
Authors: Bókay János
Published: November 2017

Abstract:

Since the initial breaking discovery of Følling that the severe neurological consequences of phenylketonuria could be prevented by use of low phenylalanine (Phe) diet, it has been shortly recognised that defective phenylalanine metabolism may also arise from the deficiency of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) cofactor, required for phenylalanine-hydroxylase activity. Furthermore, as BH4 is in Phe metabolism, it is also a cofactor for the activities of tyrosine hydroxylase and tryptophane hydroxylase, enzymes required for the synthesis of catecholamines and serotonin neurotransmitters. Besides hyperphenylalaninemia in patients with tetrahydrobiopterin deficiencies, dopamine and serotonin deficiencies, with different disorders of the central nervous system also develop. Mild form of tetrahydrobiopterin deficiency is rare, most of the patients have severe neurological abnormalities including progressive mental retardation if not treated properly. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential and can improve the clinical course and prognosis. Orv Hetil. 2017; 158(48): 1897–1902.
Critical aspects of scanning probe microscopy mapping when applied to cement pastes
Authors: Gao Xiang , Wei Ya , Huang Wei
Published: November 2017

The scanning probe microscopy (SPM) mapping technique allows the measurement of materials’ mechanical properties without causing plastic deformation and with much higher spatial resolution compared to the nanoindentation technique. In order to better utilise the SPM mapping technique to identify and quantify the microstructure morphology of individual phases in cementitious materials, this study explores several critical aspects related to the experimental protocol and the data processing during SPM measurement for both ordinary Portland cement paste and slag-blended cement paste. Two data-processing methods are proposed to extract the line data and the area data from the mapping images. The effects of the pixel spacing, the surface roughness of the sample and the magnitude of loads on the measured mechanical properties are discussed. The results of this study will help with selection of the proper testing parameters for identifying different phases and quantifying their sizes under a non-destructive testing condition at a much higher resolution.
Research on the properties of magnesium oxychloride cement prepared with simulated seawater
Authors: Huang Qing , Xiao Xueying , Li Ying , An Shengxia , Chang Chenggong , Wen Jing , Zheng Weixin , Dong Jinmei
Published: November 2017

Simulated seawater (SW) was used to fabricate magnesium oxychloride cement (MOC) pastes. Compressive strength, water resistance, performance under salt attack, thermal stability, mineral composition and microstructure were studied in detail by using a materials testing system, thermogravimetry and differential scanning calorimetry methods, X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that the compressive strength, strength retention in distilled water and thermal stability of MOC pastes made with simulated SW were slightly lower than those of the control MOC pastes. The main hydration product of both the MOC pastes was 5Mg(OH)2.MgCl2.8H2O. The strength retention of the simulated SW MOC pastes was 11·27% higher than that of the fresh water (FW) MOC pastes after 28 d of immersion in raw brine. The properties of the MOC pastes appeared to be unchanged when manufactured using simulated SW instead of FW. Due to its good performance under salt attack, the MOC pastes mixed with simulated SW show potential as salt pan material.
Dissolution of the glassy phase in low-calcium fly ash during alkaline activation
Authors: Bhagath Singh Gangapatnam V. P. , Subrahmanyam Challapalli , Subramaniam Kolluru V. L.
Published: November 2017

An experimental investigation on the dissolution of low-calcium fly ashes in an alkaline solution is presented. Fly ashes collected directly from different sources are used in the study. Changes in the elemental concentrations in the solution are determined using optical emission spectroscopy and the residue is characterised using X-ray-based techniques. The increase in the concentration of ions in the alkaline solution is primarily associated with the dissolution of the glassy phase and the crystalline content of fly ash is largely unaffected by the alkaline exposure. The increase in the concentration of Si in the solution relative to the concentration of Al is not influenced by the solution molarity or the temperature. The glass that contains Ca is more reactive and dissolves earlier than the aluminosilicate glass present within the fly ash. The X-ray diffraction pattern of the fly ash glassy phase is adequately fit using a single pseudo-Voigt (PV) peak. The peak position of the PV fit is invariant of the dissolution of the glassy phase and an intensity-based measure of the X-ray diffraction analysis intensity pattern with the PV fit provides an accurate estimate of the undissolved glassy content present in the fly ash.
Some engineering aspects of ancient stupas in Sri Lanka
Authors: Ranaweera Munidasa P
Published: November 2017

Stupas in Sri Lanka are solid brick structures built since the third century BC, and over the years, they have grown in size to become some of the largest brick structures in the world. Jetavanaya stupa, built during the third century AD, reached a height of 122 m, making it the third tallest structure in the world at that time. Presently, it has a total volume of bricks in excess of 300 000 m3, making it the most voluminous brick structure in the word. While constructing these megastructures, the ancient builders of Sri Lanka have shown some remarkable engineering innovations and skills far ahead of their times. This paper deals with the development of these historical structures and some technological aspects related to their architecture, materials, stresses and construction techniques and methods used for their protection from the elements. Stupa components are discussed, as well as the brick mortar and plaster used and their properties. Stresses found from finite-element analyses are also shown, followed by techniques used in stupa construction. Protection techniques include an innovative device used for lightning protection of these tall structures and methods used to prevent corrosion of the metallic objects inside the relic chamber.

This collection contains the protocols and recipes for the preparation of cell-free RNAPT7 transcription/translation coupled reactions. The crude extracts are obtained from IPTG-treated E.coli BL21 DE3 STAR cells. IPTGtriggers RNAPT7 expression and accumulation in cells before collection.Reactions take place when the cell extract is mixed with a maltodextrin-based energy solution along with amino acids solution and other salts (Magnesium and Potassium). This system allowstranscription/translation coupled reactions from plasmid DNA that contains T7 promoter transcriptional units. In our hands, ithas been possible to express different fluorescent reporters, including deGFP which is highly efficient. Products of the reaction can be measured during the whole reaction time in a plate reader with appropriate optic filters, open hardware cameras, andmicroscopes. When set up correctly, deGFP fluorescence intensity is detected as fast as ∼30 minutes afterthe reaction starts and it shows a rapid increase during the first ∼2.5-3.0 hours.

Analysis of the Torsion Angles between Helical Axes in Pairs of Helices in Protein Molecules
Authors: Тихонов Д.А. , Tikhonov D.A.
Published: November 2017

In this study, an analysis of distribution of the torsion angles Ω between helical axes in pairs of connected helices found in known
proteins has been performed. The database for helical pairs was compiled using the Protein Data Bank taking into account the definite
rules suggested earlier. The database was analyzed in order to elaborate its classification and find out novel structural features in
helix packing. The database was subdivided into three subsets according to criterion of crossing helix projections on the parallel planes
passing through the axes of the helices. It was shown that helical pairs not having crossing projections are distributed along whole range
of angles Ω, although there are two maxima at Ω = 0° and Ω = 180°. Most of helical pairs of this
subset are pairs formed by α-helices and 310- helices. It is shown that the distribution of all the helical pairs having
the crossing helix projections has a maximum at 20° < Ω < 25°. In this subset, most helical
pairs are formed by α-helices. The distribution of only α-helical pairs having crossing axes projections has three maxima,
at –50° < Ω < –25°, 20° < Ω < 25°,
and 70° < Ω < 110°.

EGYPT UNDER THE RULE OF ABDEL FATTAH EL-SISI: INTERNAL CHALLENGES
Authors: Ignatiev P.
Published: November 2017

Egypt is the demographic giant of the world with strategic location at the crossroads between different continents. The country was under rule of military generals since 1952 and the first competitive presidential elections in its history took place only in 2012. The latest period of military rule under the President Hosni Mubarak lasted from 1981 till 2011. It was a time of a relative stability and the lack of crucial reforms when Egypt was supported by generous US aid and tourism expenditures. Is this about to change after the ≪Arab Spring≫ and short term of Mohammed Morsi’s presidency? Such issues as demographic explosion and high levels of unemployment, forced military conscription, the lack of affordable housing and scarcity of water resources are examined. The author makes an attempt to analyze how Egypt is trying to cope with those challenges under the rule of Abdel Fattah el-Sisi. To this end he looks into the development of different spheres of economic activity like tourism, the transit via Suez Canal, remittances and cotton agriculture.

A greve dos carpinteiros no gueto de Łódź
Authors: Andre Thaily Viviane
Published: November 2017

A cidade industrial de Łódź era a segunda mais populosa da Polônia e abrigava a segunda maior comunidade judaica do país quando os nazistas decidiram germanizá-la, segregando os judeus no que se tornou o segundo maior gueto da Polônia ocupada. O gueto de Łódź ficou conhecido pela aparente passividade de seus habitantes, fama que ocasionou a obliteração de episódios de resistência como a greve dos carpinteiros, ocorrida em janeiro de 1941. Esse artigo se propõe a elucidar sobre esta que foi, presumivelmente, a mais relevante greve realizada pelos habitantes do gueto de Łódź demandando melhores condições de vida ao líder judaico, Mordechai Chaim Rumkowski.Holocausto.

A Revolução Russa e a Emancipação dos Judeus: reflexos na literatura
Authors: Kirschbaum Saul
Published: November 2017

A luta pela Emancipação mobilizou as massas judaicas europeias ao longo de todo o século XIX e começo do século XX. Na Rússia, essa luta convergiu com a convulsão social que mobilizou toda a população e encontrou sua expressão máxima nas revoluções de 1917, que resultaram na queda do regime tzarista e na implantação da União Soviética. No processo, os judeus criaram o Bund, entidade representativa dos trabalhadores, com visão de mundo socialista, e que teve papel de destaque na criação do Partido Operário Social Democrata, depois Partido Comunista. Paradoxalmente, os judeus continuaram sujeitos ao secular antissemitismo russo, mesmo depois do sucesso da Revolução. O envolvimento com a atividade revolucionária e as expectativas relativas à situação que poderia resultar do novo regime encontraram espaço na literatura produzida na época por escritores judeus.

Tormenta em Mar de Lápides: estética, memória e narração no Monumento aos Judeus Assassinados da Europa
Authors: Velasco Fernando , Melchior Laila
Published: November 2017

Este artigo traz para a discussão algumas reflexões sobre o “Monumento aos Judeus Assassinados da Europa”, na cidade de Berlim, em perspectiva ético-estética, a partir de uma abordagem multidisciplinar, em que interagem discussões próprias aos campos das artes, da literatura e da história. Para tanto, são propostas relações entre particularidades formais do “Memorial aos Judeus”, em sua presença concreta como monumento, e debates sobre a possibilidade de uma memória de Auschwitz em que se adensam o compromisso ético da lembrança de um passado de morte e o apelo à transformação da vida no presente. Elabora-se, ainda, a possibilidade de uma narração que, no lugar de opor a concretude abstrata do “memorial” como obra de arte ao significado histórico de sua metáfora como cemitério, ganha forma exatamente no encontro entre presença e imagem, entre matéria e memória. À guisa de conclusão, introduz-se, como chave analítica, a figura singular de um narrador que, diante do “Monumento aos Judeus Assassinados da Europa”, é capaz de recolher os rastros de um passado que contém em si mesmo seu futuro, no instante evanescente de um esbarrão entre vida e história.

Set-theory model of the aircraft hydraulic system working fluid state
Authors: Koptev A. N. , Gareyev A. M. , Popelnyuk I. A.
Published: November 2017

The article is devoted to the development of a set-theory model of the aircraft hydraulic system working fluid state using the mathematical apparatus of the set theory. The relevance of the work is connected with the necessity of developing a universal mathematical model of the hydraulic fluid state. The model is to form the basis of an intelligent system to control the working fluid state on board the aircraft. As a result, a general expression is obtained that allows describing the working fluid state at an arbitrary moment of time using its basic parameters, namely contamination, viscosity, density, chemical and temperature properties. A hierarchy of parameters of the working fluid state taking into account the diagnostic value of the information obtained during their measurement is constructed. The main classes of states are distinguished among all possible states of the working fluid. These are the ideal state, the normal state, pre-failure and failure. Each of them is described by a set of configurations of all possible values of the main parameters. А technique for optimizing the time of the inspection of technical condition based on the calculation of the change in the entropy of the working fluid is proposed.
Constructing 3D fan blade models in CAD-system on the basis of coordinate measuring techniques
Authors: Arkhipov A. N. , Ravikovich Yu. A. , Fedorov I. M. , Kholobtsev D. P.
Published: November 2017

Methods of coordinate measurement are reviewed and a possibility of their usage for fan blade geometry characterization and construction of a 3D CAD model is evaluated with account for actual blade airfoil deviations. Different components of blade geometry deviation from nominal geometry are considered. A technique of constructing a 3D model in a CAD-system on the basis of coordinate measurement, considering real manufacturing deviations of an airfoil is presented. To allow deformation of the nominal model according to the measurement data, the nominal model of the airfoil was recreated with account for the location of the measured sections. The issue of adding the measured profile of the blade root, edges and the peripheral area of the airfoil to the model is discussed. The influence of deviations of the out-of-the-flow path profile on the mechanical characteristics is assessed. A model with maximum and minimum deviations possible was constructed. Expected displacements and natural frequencies of the model were compared to the nominal ones. Further direction of investigation to determine airfoil geometry parameters most efficient for robust optimization is presented.

Authors: Leontiev M. K. , Kutakov M. N.
Published: November 2017

Various standard mathematical squeeze film damper (SFD) models that can be applied for solving rotor dynamics problems of gas turbine engines (GTE) are presently available. The accuracy of simulation is ultimately affected by the choice of a certain SFD formulation that depends on many factors geometry parameters, oil supply method, oil inlet pressure, operating conditions etc. The present contribution suggests some recommendations for selecting a particular mathematical SFD model and compares the simulation results obtained with different SFD formulations. To this end a point rotor system is numerically analyzed with the aid of the DYNAMICS R4 (www.alfatran.com) software.
Celiac Disease or Gluten Sensitivity? A Mini Update Review
Authors: Papandreou Dimitrios
Published: November 2017

Celiac disease is described when some people have with foods that contain gluten. Gluten is a type of protein. It's found in the grains wheat, barley and rye. It has antigenic properties and usually triggers an immune response. On the other hand, gluten sensitivity or intolerance is a similar condition that causes a person to react to gluten found in the above food items described.Even though the clinical symptoms are similar to both conditions, the pathology, diagnosis and treatment is different, thus it is very important to get the correct diagnosis. The purpose of this mini review is to compare the main aspects of these two conditions.
O cientista na divulgação científica: quem legitima quem?

Published: November 2017

Temos como objetivo depreender as imagens de cientista construídas discursivamente em uma revista de divulgação científica para crianças. Para tal, realizaremos análises de algumas sequências discursivas recortadas dos chamados “artigos grandes” da revista Ciência Hoje das Crianças. Mobilizamos, fundamentalmente, as noções de formações imaginárias, posição-sujeito, marcas de pessoas, discurso relatado. Registramos que nossos recortes foram orientados pelo ensejo de identificar as imagens discursivas da posição do cientista e como seu dizer legitima é legitimado pela revista. Verificamos, no corpus analisado, um imaginário de cientista atrelado ao pesquisador incansável que, por meio de observações empíricas, produz conhecimento. É uma imagem historicamente construída daquele que ocupa o lugar da autoridade e do poder; em outros termos, uma construção fundada pelo efeito de verdade científica.
Dispositivos da Análise Institucional para a explicitação da dimensão política das práticas discursivas
Authors: Rocha Décio , Deusdará Bruno
Published: November 2017

Neste artigo, experimenta-se a produtividade dos conceitos de implicação e analisador, desenvolvidos no âmbito dos estudos em Análise Institucional, para, em interlocução com uma ótica discursiva, proceder à leitura de textos relativos a episódio ocorrido no Rio de Janeiro em novembro de 2010, a saber, a ocupação do Complexo do Alemão por forças policiais ditas de pacificação. Como córpus, recorreu-se a textos publicados naquela ocasião em jornais de grande circulação – O Globo e Folha de S. Paulo. A inscrição das categorias de tempo e espaço, além de marcas de discurso relatado e de enunciados contendo negação polêmica (DUCROT, 1987) são tomadas como analisadores da dimensão política que se constrói em cada um desses textos. Os resultados alcançados corroboram a importância dos dispositivos escolhidos para análise, que indicam, se não a construção de relações de embate entre os dois enunciadores, pelo menos a presença de sistemas de alianças não coincidentes.

A New Test for Independence in 2×2 Contingency Tables
Authors: Sulewski Piotr
Published: November 2017

In statistical literature there exist many tests to reveal the independence of two qualitative variables in two‑way contingency tables (CTs), in particular in 2×2 CTs. In this paper four independence tests were compared. These are: the chi‑square test, being the most popular type of power divergence statistics; the modular test and the d‑square test, which is a modification of the Pearson’s test; the logarithmic minimum test which is a new proposal. Critical values for the tests listed above were determined with the Monte Carlo method. In order to compare the tests, the measure of untruthfulness of H0 was proposed and the power of the tests was calculated.
Non‑Metric Data in Household Durable Goods Analysis. Selected Aspects
Authors: Dziechciarz Józef , Dziechciarz-Duda Marta
Published: November 2017

Measurement of household endowment with durables is crucial in many aspects of assessing the social and economic situation of a country and its citizens. The demand (sales) for durables is regarded as one of the key indicators of economic conditions. Similarly, analysis and evaluation of household durable goods are usually considered in the context of measuring the quality of life. The possession of durables is measured by means of the number and quality of goods in households. Measurement of household endowment is conducted usually by means of weak measurement scales, namely nominal and ordinal. Such data require the use of specialised tools for analysis and modelling. This study discusses the possibilities of statistical analysis of such data. Additionally, modelling and problems of inference on the basis of obtained results are discussed.

In the paper, a selection of statistical tests for median are presented. In particular, parametric and nonparametric significance tests are considered. In the case of parametric tests the critical regions are constructed on the basis of the known population distribution and the form of the alternative hypothesis. For chosen distributions the critical values are presented. In the case of nonparametric tests we consider tests for which the sample median dispersion is estimated based on order statistics of appropriate ranks. The use of the bootstrap method for the median dispersion estimation in the test statistic construction is the author’s own proposal. The simulation analysis of the nonparametric tests’ properties allows to compare these tests with each other, showing better results for the bootstrap variant, especially for small samples.
Spatial Autocorrelation of Communes’ Income Potential in Selected Metropolitan Areas

A commune’s own income potential, indicative of financial self‑sufficiency, underpins the ability of its government to foster local growth. Accurate recognition of the potential levels necessary for improvement of development policies requires that, apart from considering communes’ own potential, neighbouring communes’ potential should be taken into account, especially if the neighbours are large urban centres of substantial demographic and economic capacity. This article aims to examine spatial autocorrelation of income potential of metropolitan communes of Warsaw, Poznań, Wrocław, and Cracow metro areas in 2014. The study draws on data published by the Central Statistical Office in the Local Data Bank and uses the R programme packages, such as spdep, maptools, and shapefiles for calculations.
Kościół św. Wawrzyńca w Rossoszycy – zarys historii i stan obecny
Authors: Jarczak Elżbieta , Litwa Agnieszka
Published: November 2017

Modrzewiowy kościół parafialny pod wezwaniem św. Wawrzyńca w Rossoszycy pochodzi z końca XVIII w. i jest jednym z cenniejszych zabytków na ziemi szadkowskiej. W okresie minionych ponad dwustu lat kościół był wielokrotnie remontowany. Przypadająca na 2016 r. rocznica 600-lecia powołania parafii rossoszyckiej stanowiła inspirację do pojęcia w 2014 r. kolejnego, gruntownego (trwającego do dziś) remontu tego zabytkowego obiektu. Obecny kościół jest trzecim wystawionym na tym miejscu, pierwszy istniał już na początku XV w., w latach 1770–1773, na jego miejscu wzniesiono drugi kościół, który jednak już w 1781 r. spłonął wraz z całym inwentarzem. Trzecia świątynia, wybudowana w 1783 r., przetrwała do dziś. W artykule, obok historii kościoła, przedstawiono zakres prowadzonych od 2014 roku prac remontowych i konserwatorskich.

Authors: Stulczewski Jarosław
Published: November 2017

W 1954 r. pojawiła się koncepcja lokalizacji zakładów przemysłu jedwabniczego w pobliżu Szadku. Projektowany zakład miał się składać z tkalni wyposażonej w 580 krosien oraz oddziałów pomocniczych. Fabryka miała produkować tkaniny z jedwabiu sztucznego z przeznaczeniem na suknie, bluzki, bieliznę i podszewki. Zakład miał zostać wybudowany w latach 1955–1956. Ostatecznie wycofano się z tego projektu, a zakład powstał w Gorzowie Wielkopolskim.

Dwory i pałace powiatu poddębickiego jako potencjał rozwoju turystyki uzdrowiskowej
Authors: Cieślak Adriana Barbara
Published: November 2017

Rozwój funkcji uzdrowiskowej w Uniejowie zainicjował aktywizację funkcji turystycznych w całym regionie. Ważną rolę w kształtowaniu turystycznej atrakcyjności obszarów uzdrowiskowych mogą odgrywać dwory, zamki i pałace. Są to obiekty charakterystyczne, wyposażone w sens i znaczenie, często odznaczające się indywidualnymi cechami architektonicznymi. Ponadto, wykazują one podatność adaptacyjną na nowe funkcje, zwłaszcza z zakresu spa i welness, które uznać należy za wspomagające dla turystyki uzdrowiskowej. Niniejszy artykuł koncentruje się na analizie (ilościowej i jakościowej) dworów, zamków i pałaców w powiecie poddębickim. Analiza dotyczy rozmieszczenia obiektów, a także oceny ich wartości architektonicznych oraz stopnia zachowania i/lub przetworzenia. Uzupełnieniem badań jest identyfikacja istotnych elementów dziedzictwa niematerialnego, które mogą być postrzegane, jako ważne dla tożsamości miejsca (i/lub regionu) oraz znaczące dla kształtowania innowacyjnych produktów turystycznych. Wyniki badań pozwoliły ocenić ogólną kondycję zasobu kulturowego, jakim są dwory, zamki i pałace powiatu. Dokonano oceny poszczególnych obiektów pod kątem ich turystycznej atrakcyjności, klasyfikując je w 4 grupach: o wybitnym, znaczącym, umiarkowanym oraz znikomym potencjale turystycznym. Na zakończenie, opracowano rekomendacje w zakresie zarządzania obiektami i zespołami dworskimi regionu, z uwzględnieniem potrzeb ochrony dziedzictwa kulturowego oraz rozwoju gospodarczego obszaru.

Authors: Staniek Katarzyna
Published: November 2017

Artykuł przedstawia wyniki analiz dotyczących zabytkowej tkanki miejskiej Uniejowa, posiadającej metrykę średniowieczną. Przedstawiono w nim aspekt morfogenezy wczesnodziejowego miasta lokacyjnego. Na jego tle zarysowano przekształcenia materialnych reliktów epoki średniowiecznej – zamku arcybiskupów gnieźnieńskich i kolegiaty – w retrospektywie historycznej. Nie mniejszą uwagę przywiązano do współczesnych trendów w aspekcie rewitalizacji zabudowy o wysokich walorach architektonicznych. W tym kontekście osadzono wprowadzenie teoretyczne odnoszące się do uwarunkowań i zasad przygotowywania Lokalnych Programów Rewitalizacji na arenie krajowej, od momentu akcesji Polski do UE. Artykuł zawiera także szczegółową prezentację i interpretację założeń Lokalnego Programu Rewitalizacji miasta Uniejów na lata 2011–2015 w ujęciu odnowy wspomnianych już: zamku i kościoła kolegiackiego.
What Is Bosniak, And What Bosnian-Herzegovinian Literature, And What Is, After All, The Bosnian-Hercegovinian Interliterary Community? (A Contribution To Literary-Theoretical And Literary-Historical Understanding)
Authors: Kodrić Sanjin
Published: November 2017

Literary creation in Bosnia-Herzegovina is very complex. Viewed as a whole and throughout its historical duration, it has not been realized within the framework of one nation or one ethno-national community, nor within only one language or only one alphabet, nor within the framework of only one cultural-civilizational circle. This fact and this kind of literary-historical and cultural-historical reality gives the basis from which it is now possible to talk about a unique, singular literature of Bosnia-Herzegovina, or Bosnian-Herzegovinian literature, and also about parallel, plural literatures of Bosnia-Herzegovina – Bosniak as well as Croat and Serbian literatures in Bosnia-Herzegovina, together with the literary traditions of Bosnian-Herzegovinian minority communities, such as the Jewish community and others. Also, it is possible to speak about a phenomenon that should – given its own, internal historical-developmental dynamics and its literary-developmental principles and relationships in general – probably be named the Bosnian-Herzegovinian interliterary community. That is why, in understanding the phenomenon of literary creativity in Bosnia-Herzegovina, as well in defi ning Bosnian literary studies, primarily the theoretical concepts of interliterariness as well as closely related concepts of interculturality occur as potential solutions, as – both of them – have their essential meaning and full realization in the cases of both literary and culturally complex phenomena like literature in Bosnia-Herzegovina in general.
The Semiotics Of Writing: The Novels By Dževad Karahasan
Authors: Hadžizukić Dijana
Published: November 2017

This paper will analyze Dzevad Karahasan’s novels The Eastern Diwan,Shahriar’s Ring and What the Ashes Tell, and it will do so by exploring thematisation and frames, authorship and manuscripts. In that context it is important to analyze the structural position of the authorwithin the text of the novel,his position inside the fi ctional society built within the plot, and to explore the themes and motifs of texts, scripts, writings and their overall importance, but also the meaning of the text to its fi nal recipient, the reader. The notion of writing is here considered in the sense of the Barthean term of scribing, and not only by hand, but by any other form of writing, copying, authorship and rewriting. The protagonists of Karahasan’s novels act as people who write, so the sole act of writing is made into a fundamental motif of the novel.
