Research on temporal comparison has shown that people dissociate themselves from their past to attain a positive self view. Social comparison research has demonstrated that the distinctness of contextually activated information determines whether a recalled self exerts assimilation or contrast effects on the current self. However, hardly any study addressed individual differences. Also, very little is known about whether the ease or difficulty to date past events and experiences influences current self-judgments. We present a new scale capturing the degree of the current self time extension. Three studies support the notion that temporal self-extension determines how past selves are accessed and processed, regarding both the abstractness with which self-knowledge is retrieved and the experienced temporal distance to the past. These findings have important implications for temporal as well as social comparison processes.

The article concerns selected aspects of Jean-Claude Kaufmann’s theory of Self, especially those that relate to changes in Self. Considerations of the author are accompanied by the following questions: 1) how is change in self understood in the French sociologist’s concept?; 2) what is characteristic of this change in the concept? The author presents an outline of Kaufmann’s idea of modernity and his theory of Self, and then he analyses the theory of changes in Self proposed by the French thinker, including interpretation of dreams, small passions and anomic events. In addition, the author refers to Peter Sloterdijk publication You Must Change Your Life.

In this paper, the mode in which the self reveals itself in the contemporary world-historical situation will be analysed. Hence, the focus will be on a particular form of technological mediation of the self by examining a recent phenomenon commonly referred to as the s e l f i e. Unlike most psychological studies suggest, it will be argued that selfies enable a human epistemological need to realize self-knowledge. Thus, they are not a mere result of narcissistic disorder. Furthermore, I will claim that the self-knowledge achieved via the selfie does not necessarily offer a lower level of aesthetic perfection as a means of self-knowledge gained via other “classical” art forms, and that the prejudice that this is the case is a result of a surpassed dualistic view of human nature. In the conclusion of the paper the investigation will be extended to the question of what the selfie can teach us about the essence of (modern) technology and, inversely, what from (modern) technology we can tell about the (modern) self. In doing so, Gehlen’s and Heidegger’s views on the essence of technology will be employed. Finally, to answer the question of whether the self can be revealed in the selfie, Heidegger’s criticism of modern technology will be emphasized and the difference between technology as a way of revealing and technology as a purpose will be underlined.

In his international novels, Henry James used the idea of innocence and loss of innocence in connection to his American characters, especially American girls, as opposed to the personality of the Europeans. He explored the differences between the two civilizations and the effect that these have on the identity of the innocent coming from the New World. Being presented by the author as childlike, unaware human beings, Henry James’s heroines come to Europe to learn something of ‘life’, but they can’t preserve their innocence as they are forced to recognize that the world is ambiguous, divided. Their drama is a result of their resistance to acknowledging the foreignness of the Other.

Arguments about the existence of a being who is infinite and perfect involve claims about a being who must appear in all the orders and dimensions of reality. Anything else implies finitude. Ideas about goodness seem inseparable from arguments about the existence of God and Kant's claim that such arguments ultimately belong to moral theology seems plausible. The claim that we can rely on the postulates of pure practical reason is stronger than many suppose. But one must show that a being who is infinite and perfect is even possible, and any such being must be present in the physical world as well as in what Pascal called the orders of the intellect and morality (which he called the order of charity). Indeed, locating God in the various orders without creating conflicts is problematic. Such arguments are necessarily difficult and sometimes self-defeating but I argue in this paper that there is a promising path.

European Union and otherness: The case of BalkansThe aim of this paper is to analyze the relation between the EU and the Balkans in the process of othering. The main research question raised here is in what way and to what extent the Balkans as Other was used in the process of the EU identity construction. The EU is perceived as a discursive self-construction establishing its own distinct identity against Others. It is thus argued that the Balkans identity has been dis- cursively constructed in opposition to the EU identity. Through the discursive process, by virtue of asymmetry of power, the EU self-constructed its identity by stigmatizing the difference of the Balkans - Other. The paper starts with the clarification of some conceptual premises concerning Self, Other and the concept of Otherness. It then focuses on the Balkans as Other in the process of EU identity construction. Finally, the Western Balkans as Other is also examined in the process of othering. Due to the asymmetry of power in the EU - Self and Balkans/Western Balkans-Other relation and the ability of the EU to impose the constructed dominant representa- tions, this relation is about inclusion and exclusion, superiority and inferiority. Unia Europejska a inność. Przypadek BałkanówNiniejszy artykuł ma na celu przeanalizowanie relacji pomiędzy Unią Europejską a Bałkanami w procesie stwarzania inności. Zadając główne pytanie badawcze, autorka docieka, w jaki sposób i jak dalece Bałkany jako Inny zostały wykorzystane dla budowania tożsamości Unii Europejskiej. Unia postrzegana jest jako dyskursywna autokonstrukcja ustanawiająca własną odrębną tożsamość w relacji do Innych. Zatem można dowodzić, że tożsamość bałkańska jest konstruowana dyskursywnie w opozycji do tożsamości unijnej. W tym dyskursywnym procesie, wobec asymetrii władzy, UE sama stworzyła swoją tożsamość poprzez stygmatyzowanie różnicy Bałkany – Inny. Artykuł najpierw objaśnia niektóre założenia pojęciowe odnoszące się do „Ja” i „Innego” oraz pojęcie „Inności”. Następnie koncentruje się na Bałkanach jako Innym w procesie konstruowania tożsamości UE. Wreszcie analiza obejmuje Bałkany Zachodnie jako Innego w procesie powstawania inności. W obliczu asymetrii w relacji Unia Europejska jako JA -- Bałkany/Bałkany Zachodnie jako Inny oraz faktu, że UE ma możność narzucenia skonstruowanych dominujących wyobrażeń, relacja ta obejmuje włączenie i wykluczenie, nadrzędność i podrzędność.

The aim of this paper is a short overview of the book of Evan Thompson Waking, Dreaming, Being. Self and Consciousness in Neuroscience, Meditation, and Philosophy, with some polemic remarks. Thompson presents an interesting approach to the problem of cognition, knowledge and selfknowledge the problems considered in philosophy, psychology, neurosciences, which if they interact create an interdisciplinary platform called “cognitive sciences”. However, Thompson proposes to bring on the debate within the field of a new discipline: contemplative neuroscience, for which he argues in the presented book. Using the methodology offered by this new kind of science he analyzes such phenomena as dream, perception, imagination, and even dying all of them in reference to the problem of what consciousness is.

The article substantiates theoretically the importance of studies of deliberate communicative activities in the context of the information society and postmodern culture. The “I–the Other” communicative relations correspond to the reflexive level of communicative activities if these relations are developed only in an over-situational context and a situation of relationship uncertainty. The article states that communicative activities at the reflection level take place in intra-subjective and para-social relations between “Self” and the “Other”. The reflexive level of communicative activities contributes to transformation of “Self” through the establishment of mutual understanding by the means of such psychological mechanisms as symbolization, internal dialogue, reflexive decentration, actualizing co-existential relations with the “Other”. The article determines peculiarities of the genesis of preschoolers’ intra-subjective and para-social interactions with various partners (a favorite toy, an imaginary partner, an animated character).

PL

W artykule uzasadniono w sposób teoretyczny znaczenie badań celowych działań komunikacyjnych w kontekście społeczeństwa informacyjnego i kultury postmodernistycznej. Relacje komunikacyjne „Ja-Inny” („Ja-Inny Ja”) odpowiadają refleksyjnemu poziomowi działań komunikacyjnych, jeśli rozwijają się one tylko w sytuacji ponadsytuacyjnej i w sytuacji niepewności relacji. W artykule stwierdzono, że działania komunikacyjne na poziomie refleksji zachodzą w wewnątrzsubiektywnych i paraspołecznych relacjach między „Ja” a „Innym”. Odruchowy poziom działań komunikacyjnych przyczynia się do transformacji „Ja” poprzez ustanowienie wzajemnego zrozumienia za pomocą takich mechanizmów psychologicznych, jak: symbolizacja, dialog wewnętrzny, refleksyjna decentralizacja, aktualizowanie relacji egzystencjalnych z „Innym”. Ponadto w opracowaniu określono specyfikę genezy interakcji subsubiektywnych i paraspołecznych przedszkolaków z różnymi partnerami (jak np. ulubiona zabawka, wyimaginowany partner, postać animowana).

Celem niniejszego artykułu jest analiza Jungowskich wątków w tekstach grającej progresywny metal amerykańskiej grupy Tool. Maynard James Keenan, wokalista i autor tekstów, zawsze przyznawał się do swojej fascynacji teoriami Carla Gustava Junga i Josepha Campbella, a tropy Jungowskie, poza piosenkami, można odnaleźć również w grafice okładek albumów, w promocyjnych teledyskach oraz w oprawie wizualnej koncertów zespołu. W słowach piosenek Keenan bezpośrednio lub pośrednio nawiązuje do kolejnych etapów Jungowskiego procesu indywiduacji, ewolucji duchowej i transformacji, którego celem jest całkowita integracja świadomych i nieświadomych treści psychiki. W tekstach z albumów Opiate i Undertow Keenan wyraża poczucie konieczności duchowego rozwoju oraz integracji persony, maski służącej kontaktom ze światem zewnętrznym. Powracającym motywem na pierwszych płytach Toola jest również konfrontacja z cieniem, którego wyparcie powoduje fragmentację i dezintegrację psychiki. Płyta Ænima podejmuje wątek potrzeby zrozumienia i integracji animy, nieświadomego pierwiastka żeńskiego w psychice mężczyzny, oraz koncentruje się na wynikającym z tego duchowym oczyszczeniu. Końcową fazą procesu indywiduacji jest dotarcie do Jaźni – przekroczenie wszelkich przeciwieństw i odkrycie boskiego pierwiastka w człowieku. Oznacza to całkowitą równowagę funkcji psychicznych symbolicznie odzwierciedloną w perfekcyjnym kształcie spirali. Ten etap rozwoju duchowego jest przedmiotem refleksji w tekstach niektórych piosenek z albumu Lateralus.

The aim of this paper is to analyse Jungian tropes in the lyrics of an American progressive rock band, Tool. Maynard James Keenan, the singer and lyricist, has always admitted to his enduring fascination with the theories of Carl Gustav Jung and Joseph Campbell and, apart from the songs, Jungian tropes are also evident in the album covers, promotional videos and the visuals of the group’s live shows. In his lyrics, Keenan directly or indirectly refers to the consecutive stages of Jung’s process of individuation, continuous spiritual evolution and Ewolucja duchowa i lewatywa: Jungowskie tropy w twórczości zespołu Tool transformation. Its aim is the complete integration of the conscious with the unconscious in the psyche. In the songs from Opiate and Undertow, Keenan expresses his sense of the need for spiritual development and integration of the persona, the mask used in one’s contacts with the outside world. Another recurring motif in the first albums is confrontation with the shadow, which, when repressed, brings about the fragmentation and disintegration of the psyche. The album Ænima focuses on the necessity to understand and realise the anima, an unconscious female element in a man’s psyche, which leads to spiritual cleansing. The final phase of individuation is the Self – the transcendence of all opposites and the discovery of the divine in a human being. It means a total balance of all mental functions, which is symbolically reflected in the perfect shape of the spiral. This stage of the spiritual evolution is addressed in the lyrics of several songs from Lateralus.

The article is an attempt to describe the conditions in which the body assumes the role of a prop – it becomes an object organizing individual and social life. For such a process to take place, it is necessary to disconnect the body from the Self. It comes with his death. Funeral practices that change the social status of the body can take a monistic or dualistic form. The former make the body a relic and are based on the belief that soma is connected with its spiritual essence. The latter, on the contrary, points to the impermanence of such a connection. In this way, the body becomes a prop, an object, an object, and a tool for funeral performances.
