The authoress takes a sensible and critical look on contemporary visual anthropology as a separate discipline and a sub-discipline of general anthropology. She obviously appreciates its individual possibilities connected with audio-visual recording instruments (filmed documentation has no limitations of written documentation), but accuses it of persistently exploring outdated subjects and of avoiding more modern challenges. The issue of the filmer/filmed relation also poses a problem - visual anthropology continues to rely on the equally privileged and distanced observer-expert whose physical presence is the guarantee of the authenticity of transferred content. According to her, visual anthropology neither collaborates with general anthropology nor addresses the need for a new research perspective. If anthropological science is to meet the requirements of our time, it has to take into account such phenomena as deterritorialization of culture, community decentralization, polycentric networks, translocation and transnationality, etc. But these issues are hardly existent in visual anthropology. The authoress tries to identify the gaps of the science and their consequences. In the end, she tries to defend the science and lists the advantages that - with a more progressive approach - may be used for multi-faceted research in today's increasingly medialized world.

The article attempts at responding the question how art can possibly function in public space. A reply to this question assumes that associations between art, politics and ethics, fulfilling their potential in (a) public space, will be evidenced. The article evokes our contemporary concepts of such associations - in conclusion, however, predominantly referring to Julia Kristeva's views. Kristeva namely treats mutiny in terms of individual revolt, expressing itself in opposing dominant forms of social life. Being a form of individual expression, art can thereby become part of a discourse in public space.

The article's subject is a topographical turn in literary research, considered in association with the spatial turn in humanities. It in particular concerns contemporary reconfigurations, both in the area of new concepts of space and the discipline itself which is open today for circulation of ideas and notions from other areas. The essay indicates the main directions of interest of the research current in question, including e.g.: new regionalism; ecocriticism; literary urban studies; relations between literary representations of space and individual/collective identity; interrelations between literature and geography. Characterised are the basic determinants of new concepts of space, e.g. connecting spatiality with temporality, reinstated category of 'site', interest in hybrid(ic)/transitive spaces and heterotopias, and the fundamental shift in the perspective - from a poetics of space to one of site.

The paper presents selected issues on the methodology of analysis of iconic messages drawing on the examples of paintings of Jaga Karkoszka. The analysis is based on the motive of interrelations between nature and culture. The author's approach is enrooted in late works of the Tartu School (esp. Jurij Lotman and Zara Minc), methods devised by Ervin Panofsky and contemporary ideas existing in aesthetics. Main thesis of the article states that notions applied by Roland Barthes to study photography (punctum and studium) are useful in analysis of other types of images.
