Dyskursy o "raptularzu" i ich krytyczny potencjał Słomak, Iwona In my article I focus on the category of raptularz which was not yet elaborated. It appeared in old Polish language, and it gained a great popularity in the 20th century. Using the dictionaries and recalling the examples from the area of old and new writing, the author shows diverse panorama of discourses about the raptularz. This name is often used interchangeably with the category of the sylwa, and thus, taking into account certain characteristics of poetics of the sylwa and of the raptularz, as well rhetorical mechanisms (they are particularly distinct in the raptularz) which are related of them, we can be more critical in relation to the tradition of excluding the sylwa and the raptularz from the convention and rhetoric domain.

"Science fiction" w metaforyzowaniu świata postindustrialnego i postbiologicznego Gajewska, Grażyna The key point of this article is: on the XX/XXI centuries we more and more often apply heroes, subjects and conventions of the science fiction, particularly when we talk and write about problems of the contemporary civilization. Donna Haraway in the eighties XX century claimed that for the description of the contemporary symbiosis of the human and technology we need new metaphors. In her articles a cyborg is the main character of a new world, and science fiction is an important literary genre, more important than realism genre. Jean Baudrillard claimed that our experiencing reality is shaped through science fiction. In the other words, we are talking about world (technology, telecommunication, techno−science, techno−medicine) using metaphors science fiction. Not only critics of the contemporary culture, but also writers are delivering this opinion, for the example writer Orson Scott Card claimed that we live in the days of the science fiction, and our reality is science fiction. In the article I am presenting arguments in support of these theses. I am concentrating on such phenomena, as technology, telecommunication, techno−science, techno−medicine. The first, I am interested above all in; the second, I am interested how people are describing these occurrences, what words and metaphors they are using to describe contemporary techno−world.

Gatunki logowizualne. Od krytyki języka do krytyki społecznej Karpowicz, Agnieszka Since at least the beginning of the 20th century located in between word and picture logo−visual forms have a critical charge, which results from the impact of two different media (word and picture) in a single work. This clash provokes the challenge and question of each of them. Modern tradition of typographic poetry comes from the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. Two factors: changes of media environment and rapid growth of new reproduction techniques were crucial for the development of the logo−visual forms. The multimedia of the 20th and 21st centuries, use technically reproduced word and picture for advertising, ideological or persuasive purposes. Logo−visual art becomes a genre, which call into doubt relationship between word, picture and the meaning. It becomes a philosophical and critical reflection on the systems of representation. Critical reflection on language and systems of representation, when one medium is reflected by the other one in a single work, makes spectator's reception of the work critical and non−automatic. This way of expiring of the work partly results from the twentieth−century experiences, thus the critical reflection on language fluently passes into cultural criticism.

Powieść ekologiczna jako gatunek krytyczny Adamczewska, Izabella The Article is Dedicated to Present an Environmentalist (Environmental, Ecological) Novel as a 'Critical Genre'. I show its attributes in contrast with a nature novel which in turn I define as a thematic novel form being mainly educational and set in nature. Ecological novel on the other hand is an ideological variety of a novel related to social ecological movements arising after the fifties. Its plot need not take place in natural environment and the ecological value may be emphasized merely in the discursive layer. While the nature novel is dominated by an anthropocentric viewpoint the ecological novel is strictly oriented towards ecocentricism' and utilizing accomplishments of feminist and postcolonial literature. The true commitment of this genre is quite distinctive. I demonstrate it exemplifying three characteristic types of ecological novel: the philosophical treaty (Elizabeth Costello, J.M. Coetzee), the futurological ecological dystopia (Possibility of an Island, M. Houellebecq) and the ecological novel (“powieść środowiskowa") about ecologists (Low−tech, M. Olszewski), simultaneously highlighting its close connections with feminism (Prowadź swój pług przez kości umarłych, O. Tokarczuk) as well as criticism of capitalism.
