Michael Maier's alchemic treatise Atalanta fugiens (1617) is an emblematic book containing 50 three-part musical compositions. Each of them has a form of a two-part canon based on a fixed cantus firmus. These compositions constitute a musical equivalent of the content of particular engravings and of both poetic and prose texts. The originality of these compositions consists in a conceptual union of the word and the image with its musical notation, and particularly with the elements of notation and compositional techniques which are used in polyphony. From the artistic and aesthetic perspective, Maier's works are lacking in originality and are of little value, but they are an important example of an hermetic way of thinking and of philosophy of life.

The article analyses the pre-ultimate volume of poetry by Andrzej Sosnowski. In her analysis of Sosnowski's works the author employs the categories of polyphony, materiality and performativity. Sosnowski's poetry is read as a kind of performance or carnival show whose interpretative context is the poet's own "performeresque” practice.

The paper examines the discourse of the Czech weekly talk show Uvolnete se, prosim (Relax, please). For this purpose, we have chosen an interview of the moderator Jan Kraus with the former chairman of the Social Democratic Party of the Czech Republic, Jiri Paroubek, who was invited into the studio on the occasion of his appointment as prime minister in 2005. The analysis focuses on the polyphony of voices arising in the talk show and on the intertextual techniques used in the process of positioning the guest, as well as the self-positioning of the moderator. The interview is thus analyzed as an intertext built upon other texts, which are both external and internal to the current speech situation. The host’s practices employ allusions to the voices coming from “outside”, i.e. through the introduction of quotations of the voices of third parties and the guest’s prior words, as well as responses to the voices heard “inside” the current interaction, i.e. the host echoes the guest’s utterances and moreover, assumes the guest’s voice, positioning the prime minister mostly in an unfavorable, but humorous manner. The guest’s work with these voices is also traced.
