The practical “expression” of the very existence and validity of media ethics are ethical codes formulated and implemented by particular media entities or specific media circles (journalists, entertainers, etc.). The multiplicity of these codes and many differences between them (sometimes relating to some fundamental issues) prompt quite a few reflections here. The question of the universality of media ethics should be discussed primarily. Opinions on the construction of a universal code of ethics, that is referring to all media and endorsed by all media professionals, are somehow divided. For example, according to the German author U. Saxer, due to the plurality of perspectives on different worldviews and the very relation between professional ethical norms, there is no sense in presenting uniform, universal ethics of media. However, this contention does not appear to be justified, because it is easy to separate certain norms related to a particular worldview (e.g. the prohibition on the presentation of any content contrary to the Christian values) from universal norms (e.g. the principle of truth).

Polish‑Turkish relations were historically strong, the official relations were established in the 15th century. Probably the best example how these relations looked like in 16th century, in the Jagiellonian dynasty’s time, is Travells and Polish Diplomatic Mission in Turkey written by Erazm Otwinowski. Born to a noble family, Otwinowski was a Polish Renaissance poet and Calvinist activist. He served for a Polish magnate Stanisław Tęczyński as secretary and diplomat. Otwinowski’s work is the diary written in 1557 during this diplomatic missions to Istanbul to the court of the sultan Suleyman the Great. Polish nobleman is confronted with the many customs typical for Ottoman Empire and with the savoir vivre of Topkapi Palace. In this article, I will examine Otwinowski’s diary proving that ethnic identity is the relative notion tightly connected with culture: the patterns of behavior, symbols and cultural practices shared by the society. I will analyze the text applying the semiotic perspective. I will argue that Otwinowski’s comments gives many examples that ethnicity is shaped by the way how we deal with sings. The ways how we put the sings into categories and how we interpret them help to establish the group identities. What we consider our identity is based not only on our idea who we are but also on the idea of the “Stranger”. As a result, we become aware of our ethnic identity when we get in contact with “Strangers”. The process of shaping the borders between ethnic groups is based on the signs which have been shared in certain social or political circumstances. I intend to focus on the notion of connotation because ethnicity is one of the influential factors shaping the connotations. I will also consider the codes of perception distinguished by Umberto Eco.

The article discusses the issues of values and social responsibility of universities. On the one hand, the foundations of functioning of universities, which are created by research and education and the role of universities in formation, are recalled. On the other hand, it was reminded that the heart of universities, their DNA, are academic values, defined primarily in the Magna Charta Universitatum, but also in many other documents, such as the Code of Values of the Jagiellonian University. Hence, universities are increasingly often referred to not only as universities of knowledge, but also as universities of wisdom. Together, they are the basis for the social responsibility of universities. However, they alone are not enough for this social responsibility to materialise. Appropriate behaviour and actions are essential. Because knowledge alone is not everything. Such actions are always necessary, but especially when we find ourselves, as a country, humanity and a planet, in a crisis situation related to the climate disaster, which we are already partially experiencing. After the presentation of the most important current facts related to the climate and environmental crisis, the tasks to be undertaken urgently in this context by universities were presented, from broadly understood education, through convincing politicians to ambitious and quick actions, to intensive work on innovative solutions that can contribute to reducing threats brought by the climate and environmental crisis, pointing out, among others, the initiatives proposed by the newly created network of universities U7.

Conscious reception of works of art has always required adequate knowledge on the part of the viewer. With time, the need for specialized competences of the viewer has grown more and more essential. This process was particularly intensified in the first decades of the 20th century, when visual narratives, formulated through sophisticated languages, became extremely complicated. One of the most responsible factors in this respect as abstraction, because the forms it created carried completely new meanings. Thus the time of literal referentiality has come to an end. Art has ceased to be a simple mirror reflecting the surrounding reality in a comprehensible way.

PL

Świadomy odbiór dzieł sztuki zawsze wymagał ze strony widza odpowiedniego przygotowania. Z czasem potrzeba wyspecjalizowanej kompetencji odbiorcy stała się wręcz niezbywalna, co szczególnie nasiliło się w pierwszych dekadach XX wieku, kiedy to niezwykle skomplikowały się narracje wizualne, formułowane za pośrednictwem wyrafinowanych języków. Przyczyniła się do tego w znacznym stopniu abstrakcja, która niosła powstającymi w jej obrębie formami zupełnie nowe sensy. Skończył się czas dosłownej referencyjności. Sztuka przestała być prostym zwierciadłem, odbijającym zrozumiale dookolną rzeczywistość.
