Aristotle’s Poetics versus Modern Theories of Drama
Authors: Chodkowski Robert R. 
Published: October 2019

The Polish version of the article was published in “Roczniki Humanistyczne,” vol. 57 (2009), issue 3.
This paper seeks to prove that there are no grounds in the Poetics to ascribe to Aristotle the views identified with the literary theory of drama because he does not identify drama with a verbal work. On the contrary, the spectacular dimension of tragedy is for Aristotle one of the distinctive feature of tragedy vis-à-vis epos, which for him is only – to use our modern terms—a literary work. Thus, the visual element (ὄψις or ὄψεως κόσμος) is not only very important for Aristotle, but it is even a necessary component of tragedy. Indeed there are some remarks in the Poetics that suggest tragedy may exist without ὄψις, but this is only regarded as a hypothetical situation, analogical to the one when he argues that tragedy may exist without characters. In fact, however, both ὄψις and characters are regarded by Aristotle as necessary components of tragedy. He makes his considerations assuming both components. At the same time, he treats tragedy not as a text but a theatrical work in which mimesis can be conducted by the “acting persons” (πράττοντες). They are understood not as literary figures, but as stage embodiments of the heroes whose psychophysical ontic paradigms are actors.
Fantasy or a Transcendent Experience? Study of the Painting Ascent into Heaven by Jheronimus Bosch from the Palazzo Ducale in Venice
Authors: Kubies Grzegorz 
Published: October 2019

The Polish version of the article was published in “Roczniki Humanistyczne,” vol. 63 (2015), issue 4.
The painting Ascent into Heaven (88.8 x 39.9 cm; dendrological dating: 1482–1490) kept in the Palazzo Ducale in Venice is one of the four eschatological panels (the other three are: Earthly Paradise, Fall of the Damned, Hell) which probably were in the collection of the Venetian Cardinal Domenico Grimani in the 1520s. The panels’ original arrangement and function are unknown. The paintings are not signed and their attribution to Jheronimus Bosch (c. 1450–1516 ) is based largely on the grounds of stylistic criteria. In the study, I put Ascent into Heaven into two fundamental contexts for the iconographic analysis of this work: eschatological literature and Netherlandish/ Flemish painting and in the context of near-death experiences (NDE) as well. The answer to the question posed in the title of the study must remain twofold. On the basis of the data gathered in the study, the content of the painting can be comprehended by references to the most frequently quoted sources of inspiration for Bosch: one painting by Dieric Bouts (left wing of the Last Judgement Altarpiece; Lille, Palais des Beaux Arts), two illuminations by Simon Marmion (Le livre des sept Ages du monde; Brussels, Bibliothèque royale de Belgique, Ms. 9047, fols. IV & 12r) and a literary work Dat rike der ghelieven by Jan van Ruusbroec. Its content can be equally understood by reference to the role of the painter’s imagination (categories of inventio and fantasia), using his theological and astronomical knowledge. The above line of interpretation that emphasizes the influence of biblical logosphere, takes into account undeniable religious experience of the painter from ‘s-Hertogenbosch resulting from being a member of the Church. The factor of an epistemological importance which influences the form of the answer to the title question is hypothetical non-verifiable Bosch’s personal transcendental experience, thus it becomes impossible to evaluate the translation of what is spiritual (experience) into visual (image). Due to the elusive, not fully scientific nature of NDE this phenomenon should be excluded from the final conclusion.
Epiphanies of the Exiles: Exile from the Heritage of Tradition
Authors: Garbol Tomasz 
Published: October 2019

The Polish version of the article was published in Roczniki Humanistyczne vol. 61, issue 2 (2014).
The article is concerned with the function of the experience of exile that is a model for literary epiphanies. The starting point is showing the significance of this experience in James Joyce’s presentation of the epiphany that is formative for modern literature. Examples from Czesław Miłosz’s and Zbigniew Herbert’s works are material for interpreting two important reinterpretations of the epiphany based on the experience of exile.
Herbert’s Postcolonial Antiquity and Defensive Nationalism
Authors: Uffelmann Dirk 
Published: October 2019

The Polish version of this article was published in Roczniki Humanistyczne vol. 65, issue 1 (2017).
This paper proposes a postcolonial reading of antiquity motifs from Zbigniew Herbert’s po-ems from the times of socialism. References to ancient history, mythology, and biblical allusions are interpreted as allegories of the political culture in the Polish People’s Republic. While in his poems written between 1956 and 1990 Herbert depicts communism as an attempt at Russian colonization of Poland, in seminal texts the focus lies mainly on the internal effects for the Polish colonized mind.
Linking communist Moscow to ancient Rome, Herbert accomplishes a peculiar anti-imperial translatio imperii. It is this trans-chronic perspective of Herbert’s poems which allows for rounding off the paper with connecting Herbert’s anti-imperial attitude with defensive nationalism and proposing recent right-wing tendencies in the Polish appropriation of post-colonial theory (Ewa Thompson et al.) as a heuristic model for understanding Herbert’s civil position during communism.
On Bruno Schulz’s Demythologization of Reality
Authors: Durkalewicz Wiktoria 
Published: October 2019

The Polish version of the article was published in Roczniki Humanistyczne vol. 62, issue 1 (2014).
This article is an attempt at an analysis of the changes occurring in the area of Schulz’s narrative identity that is being constituted. It is assumed that the turning point for Schulz’s personal myth was first of all the success of The Street of Crocodiles and a number of events in his personal life (splitting up with his fiancée, his brother’s death, his health problems). Each of these factors starts to influence, in its own way, the writer’s questioning of the possibility to continue writing, that is, interpreting the world, discovering history, “making reality sensible.” The success of The Street of Crocodiles becomes a challenge that is difficult to respond to in these new conditions. The writer’s “brilliant epoch,” the epoch of “writing for himself,” comes to an end. The “Schulz” issue is in danger of sinking into oblivion. The narrative space is gradually transformed into a space of coping with alienation, division, loneliness. These motifs are articulated in a special way in the stories Dodo, The Pensioner, and Loneliness. If, in these stories, overcoming failure in life is indeed impossible (Dodo) or proceeds owing to “sponging off somebody [else]’s life” (The Pensioner), or “parasitizing metaphors” (Loneliness), in The Homeland the rewriting of an individual myth ab origine takes place. The act of this “rewriting” is understood as consequently departing from the basic principles of Schulz’s literary hermeneutics and philosophy of literature. The reality appearing as a result of this departure is a reality that is not rooted in genuine experience, a quasi-reality of “negative values,” a reality of a narrative disaster signaling the definitive “death of Bruno the Great.”
Polish Literature in Israel: Between the Memory of Europe and a New Life
Authors: Prokop-Janiec Eugenia 
Published: October 2019

The Polish version of the article was published in Roczniki Humanistyczne vol. 64, issue 1 (2016).
The article presents Polish literature in Israel as literature written by migrants: a response to the experience of being relocated and of functioning between different cultures. The subject of the analyses are the paraphrases, travesties and parodies of works by Adam Mickiewicz that are present in Polish-Israeli literature. Referring to the canon texts of Polish literature in them serves the recording of life in Israel. Using Polish literary patterns in stories about the new life and inscribing the Israeli world, as well as signs of Hebrew culture, into them is interpreted as a peculiar correlate of the experience of migration.
Maternity Leave of a Prison Service Officer
Authors: Kumor-Jezierska Ewelina 
Published: October 2019

The study examines maternity leave regulations in a situation where both parents or legal guardians of a child are officers of the Polish Prison Service, or one of them is a PS officer, and the other is an employee or insured on the basis other than the employment relationship, e.g. a contract of mandate. The latest amendment of 24 July 2015 amending the Labour Code Act and certain other laws has extended the range of cases where it is possible for other eligible persons to use part of maternity leave. The new solution enable not only the parents of the child but also other immediate family members to use part of maternity leave. The complexity of the provisions related to parental rights makes interpretation difficult. Moreover, neither the Prison Service Act nor the provision of Article 29 para. 5 of the Act on cash benefits from social insurance, referred to by the Labour Code, specifies which specific persons can be regarded as the closest family. Proper determination of entitled persons is crucial, as it entails the payment of benefits financed by the State, and also, on the basis of the Act on Prison Service, the legislator guarantees protection of the public service relationship by virtue of Article 108 to officers (regardless of the eligible person’s gender and the degree of relationship) taking maternity leave or holiday leave on the terms of maternity leave.

Relevance of the topic. Acute pancreatitis (OP) is originally an aseptic inflammation of the pancreas, with possible damage to the surrounding tissues and individual organs, as well as systems, which is the third most common after acute appendicitis and acute cholecystitis in the number of patients. In this regard, an experimental model is needed to further determine the tactics of management and treatment of patients with acute pancreatitis of varying severity.
Objective: to develop a universal model of acute pancreatitis with the ability to control the area of ​​pancreatic necrosis through the use of various overlays (distal or proximal to the confluence of the accessory pancreatic duct into the common bile duct) of the ligature, which will ensure the development of total or subtotal pancreatonecrosis.
Materials and methods. Matured white Wistar rats weighing 250-300 g were chosen as objects for the study. The simulation of acute pancreatitis in the experiment was carried out using a 50% bile solution (pH = 6.0) followed by intraductal injection without cannulation of the major duodenal papilla. To control the degree of severity and area of ​​the pancreas lesion, we use the staged overlay of turnstiles at the confluence of the additional pancreatic ducts and the common bile duct, which ensures the development of acute pancreatitis of varying severity. On the 5th day, the rats were removed from the experiment, an autopsy was performed with the removal of pancreatic preparations for further histological examination. The evaluation of the immune and oxidative parameters of the blood of experimental animals. Statistical processing of the obtained results was performed using descriptive and variation statistics techniques.
Results. In the course of this work, moderate and severe acute pancreatitis is modeled, which allows us to focus on the course of each subject to variation statistics, determining their reliability, which is an important condition for creating the necessary platform for further study of the management and treatment of this disease.
Findings. I use the resulting model, we managed:
- to obtain a high reliable result of operations with minimal death of experimental animals, i.e. high repeatability of positive results;
- perform an accessible operation with obvious technical simplicity;
- see the possibility of a simulated disease for a long time up to 5 or more days, which subsequently allows medical intervention and testing of new dosage forms and drugs for treatment and studying their effects.
Thus, it is possible to judge the universality of this model of acute pancreatitis under experimental conditions.

Published: October 2019

Money and space were elements that continually contested. This article aimed to described the role of money and space to support development activity, using the case study of Mbatakapidu. “Money” in this article was referred to fund assistance from external parties such as government (central, province or regency), non-governmental organization (NGOs), and internal side such as self-supporting (local resources), while “space” that referred in this article was local institution called BUMDes (Badan Usaha Milik Desa). This research applied qualitative approach by conducting a case study. Data were gathered through in-depth interview to 5 purposively-selected informants. Secondary data from previous research was used as complement to primary data. Researchers also held a focus group discussion to gain more accurate explanation about the phenomena. The case study shows that fund which entered the village was not yet accompanied by the presence of BUMDes, due to the absence of supporting regulations such as regional regulation (Perda) and village regulation (Perdes) about BUMDes East Sumba regency, especially in Mbatakapidu. BUMDes as an instrument to develop village’s economics must followed by the presence of regulation as a legal basis, driven by local value which guide knowledge, attitude and practice of indigenous people.
Scaffolding Self-direction with the ACRL Framework: A Reflection-Based Approach
Authors: Cameron Andrea 
Published: October 2019

This case study reports on the information literacy component of a pilot first-yearexperience course, U1X, at Concordia University. Based on the ACRL Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education, the information literacy component of U1X was designed to encourage self-direction.
Through exploring the university’s larger research mission, the module aimed to shift the emphasis from “how to do research correctly” to viewing research as a personal endeavour in which the researcher cultivates the skills necessary to make a meaningful contribution. It encouraged students to reflect on what they could contribute and the skills they would need to do so.
The design of this module aligned with the U1X syllabus, which included as learning outcomes that students gain an understanding “of the University’s research mission at its highest level” and “of the relationship between research and citizenship.” The module took a similarly “big picture” approach, while also looking at students’ personal development through reflection. This paper will explore the challenges and opportunities of this approach.

Incidence of seriously injured road users in a Swedish region, 2003–2014, from the perspective of a national road safety policy
Authors: Värnild Astrid , Belin Matts-Åke , Larm Peter , Tillgren Per 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
Background: Since 1997 Sweden has a policy for road safety called Vision Zero. Given that Vision Zero is mainly used to reduce fatalities among car occupants, the question has been raised by the research community whether a Vision Zero approach promotes health for all road traffic users. The objective is to measure target fulfilment of the national road safety policy for a Swedish region by examining incidence of serious injury during 2003–2014 in rural and urban road spaces with or without implemented measures.
Methods: Data on seriously injured road users, defined as ISS>8 (Injury Severity Scale), were retrieved from STRADA (Swedish Traffic Accident Data Acquisition) together with data from NVDB (National Road Database). These data are used to describe where road users are seriously injured in relation to implemented national policy and using a conceptual model of a road space comprising roads, pavements and tracks for walking and cycling. Seriously injured road users in single and multiple crashes with and without vehicles are included. The development of the incidence is analysed for different road users and places in the road space.
Results: Despite implemented road safety measures in the region, the incidence of seriously injured road users per 100,000 inhabitants in rural areas increased from 7.8 in 2003 to 9.3 in 2014 but doubled in urban areas from 8.0 in to 16.3 respectively. In areas not transformed by Vision Zero, only 36% were injured in rural areas while 64% were injured in urban areas. In contrast, in transformed areas 61% of injuries occurred in rural areas, whereas 39% occurred in urban areas. While the incidence decreased for car occupants on transformed national roads in rural areas, the incidence of serious injuries increased among unprotected road users in urban areas, in particular on pavements and tracks for cycling and walking than on the roads where Vision Zero had been implemented.
Conclusion: The reduction in the incidence for car occupants in the region may not be adequate to contribute to fulfilling the national target. More needs to be done, especially in the urban areas, where more active mobility is desired.
The Influence Of The Infusion Of Ephedrine And Phenylephrine On The Hemodynamic Stability After Subarachnoid Anesthesia In Senior Adults - A Controlled Randomized Trial

Published: October 2019

Abstract
ABSTRACT Study objective: We studied the influence of ephedrine or phenylephrine infusion given immediately after spinal anesthesia (SA) on hemodynamics in elderly orthopedic patients. Design: A prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Intervention: After subarachnoid injection of 15 mg of levobupivacaine the participants received either an infusion of ephedrine 20 mg (E group), phenylephrine 250 mcg (P group) or saline (C group) within 30 minutes. For 15 minutes before and and 30 minutes after SA we measured blood pressure, cardiac index (CI) and heart rate (HR). Results 70 patients were included in the final analysis. At the end of measurements mean arterial pressure decreased significantly after SA in comparison to baseline in the C group but was maintained in the P and the E group, with no significant differences between the groups. CI decreased after SA in the C group was maintained in the P group and increased significantly in the E group, with significant differences between the C and the E group (p=0.049) and between the P and the E (p=0.01) group at the end of measurements. HR decreased significantly after SA in the C and the P group and was maintained in the E group, with significant differences between the P and the E group (p=0.033) at the end of measurements. Conclusions Hemodynamic changes after SA in elderly orthopedic patients can be prevented by an immediate infusion of phenylephrine or ephedrine. In addition to maintaining blood pressure the ephedrine infusion also maintains HR and increases CI after spinal anaesthesia. Key words: spinal anesthesia, hemodynamic stability, phenylephrine, ephedrine Trial registration: ISRCTN registry ISRCTN44377602. Registered on 15 June 2017.

Abstract
Background: Chronic stress is well known to promote tumor progression, however, little is known on whether neurotransmitters released after chronic stress induced sympathetic activation regulate the function of osteoblasts to affect migration and invasion of metastatic cancer cells.
Methods: First, the changes in migration and invasion ability of prostate cancer cell lines PC-3 and DU145 were assessed by transwell migration assay. PC-3 and DU145 cells proliferation ability were detected by CCK-8, and HIF-1α expression of osteoblasts and the momentous proteins of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of PC-3 and DU145 cells were examined by Western blot. Then, an analysis of the main cytokines associated with bone metastasis in osteoblasts and EMT-related biomarkers in PC-3 and DU145 cells was performed by qRT-PCR. Finally, rescue experiment was performed by using HIF-1α siRNA and inhibitor, HIF-1α overexpression plasmid, β2-adrenergic receptor (β2AR) inhibitor, CXCR4 siRNA and inhibitor.
Results: In this study, isoproterenol (ISO), a non-selective β-adrenergic receptor (βAR) agonist, used as a pharmacological surrogate of sympathetic nerve activation induced by chronic stress, exhibited no direct effect on migration and invasion of PC-3 and DU145 prostate cancer cells. Whereas, osteoblasts pretreated with ISO promoted EMT and migration as well as invasion of PC-3 and DU145 cells, which was independent of promoting cell proliferation and could be inhibited by β2AR inhibitor. Mechanistically, ISO increased the secretion of CXCL12 via the β2AR-HIF-1α signaling in osteoblasts. Moreover, overexpression of HIF-1α osteoblasts promoted migration and invasion of PC-3 and DU145 cells, which was inhibited by addition of recombinant knockdown of CXCR4 in PC-3 and DU145 cells, and inhibiting CXCL12-CXCR4 signaling with LY2510924 blunted the effects of osteoblasts in response to ISO on EMT and migration as well as invasion of PC-3 and DU145 cells.
Conclusions: These findings indicate that β2AR-HIF-1α-CXCL12 signaling in osteoblasts facilitates migration and invasion as well as EMT of prostate cancer cells, and may play a potential role in affecting bone metastasis of prostate cancer.
