The article traces the affinities between cultural narcissism on the one hand and the representation of individual and collective identities in visual media on the other. By referring to a body of research on narcissism, the author establishes a connection between identity deficits, compensation strategies and individualization in order to claim that contemporary disco polo videos — in their popular generic form — are a reservoir of visual conventions that underscore certain anxieties that can be observed in twenty-first century Polish society.

The Petty Theft of Fiction – V. S. Pritchett and the Moderate Short Story

The article presents the most important formal and thematic characteristics of V. S. Pritchett’s short stories, and attempts to provide an analytical paradigm for what seems to be an original form of social realist short fiction. By analysing themes (crime, above all others), characterisation, eventfulness, and rhetorical closures of selected stories, the author of this article draws attention to the importance of stasis and recalcitrance in the texts, and aims to address the problem of the relative neglect V. S. Pritchett’s short fiction has suffered from in the critical debates of the last few decades.

One of the most spectacular cultural macro-events of the last five years, the rise of high-brow narrative TV series has proven to be indicative of several tendencies in contemporary audio-visual culture, both in Europe and in the US. The presentation of dystopian fictional worlds in Mr Robot, Westworld, Utopia, Legion, and several other series is perhaps the most significant manifestation of both the maturity of the TV series form, and the unfaltering interest of audio-visual culture in the utopian/dystopian subject matter. This paper illustrates the connection of the TV series to both solidarity and dystopia, and explains how contemporary TV series has decidedly manifested its artistic ambitions.

Rozwój narracyjnego serialu telewizyjnego, który dało się zaobserwować w kulturze angloamerykańskiej w ostatnich pięciu latach, w dużej mierze zbiegł się z zainteresowaniem narracją dystopijną. Teksty takie jak Mr. Robot, Westworld, Opowieść podręcznej, Legion, czy Utopia w istotny sposób przedefiniowują konwencje, które kojarzyliśmy z narracjami telewizyjnymi. Artykuł przedstawia artystyczne aspekty wybranych współczesnych seriali telewizyjnych, analizując jednocześnie fikcjonalne światy dystopijne, które zostały w tych utworach przedstawione.
