This article explores various forms of self-presentation of the hetman on the path of self-knowledge in the conditions of hopelessness caused by emigration. Pylyp Orlyk’s handwritten diary of 1725, 1726, and 1727 is dominated by motives of accustoming to emigration conditions, protection of privacy, discourses, illness and recovery, friendship, solitude with reading, and fi nally, more clearly than before, the self-awareness of the soul. “Peregrine”, as Orlyk calls himself in 1727, aft er eighteen years of emigration. He orders two or three services at once for the children on their birthdays, for the health of his wife Anna of the Hercyk family. Orlyk visits all the churches in Th essaloniki, is a good Christian, but nowhere emphasizes his denomination. He believes in the power of praying for the health of his family and friends. Sincere prayer becomes medicine. One of the described disasters of that time is perceived today in a very modern way - “bad air”. Th is euphemism is repeated in the manuscript when it comes to the plague pandemic in Th essaloniki, Smyrna, Istanbul.

One of the developments based on the approach of Berger and Luckmann focuses on the analysis of discourses and subjectivation processes. The Interpretive Subjectivation Analysis (ISA) takes up these developments in order to establish a research perspective on the decentered subject that combines the theories of the Interpretive Paradigm of Sociology and the post-structuralist concepts of subjectivation as established in Judith Butler’s and Michel Foucault’s work. This paper outlines a qualitative methodological framework to analyze processes of subjectivation by including and relating empirical data on different levels. In order to show how this type of research can broaden the perspective on human subjectivities, the article discusses different empirical studies that focus on questions of inequality and marginalization.

The monthly magazine Časostroj (Time Machine), published in the Czech Republic since 2011, is meant to enable “a fun journey into history” for readers aged 7–15. Several years ago, this magazine took 2nd place in a competition organised by the Czech Academy of Sciences for the popularisation of science. The paper considers how this specifically-profiled popularisation of history oscillates between academic (pedagogical, didactic), everyday communicative and “entertainment” styles, as well as how the entertainment function of language and texts is promoted in contemporary communication. Attention is devoted to the fact that in this popularising discourse – probably much more than in scholarly historiography – narration merges with commentary, and historical fiction has a specific use. The selection of topics and historical events is determined witha consideration of young readers, who are transported into history and directly integrated into past events. The magazine’s authors and editors engage their intended readers in continuous dialogue and maintain live contact with them. The paper also presents the various genres which appear in the magazine (from myths, legends and fables to comics, including, e.g. “historical detective stories”). It further recalls and accents everyday life in history in this popularising discourse and its connections to the gender perspective (female perspective), among others. Emphasis is also placed on the educational function of the texts – on how young readers are encouraged to be actively interested in history and to be independent thinkers (e.g. through alternative history).

The purpose of the article is to analyze a unique fragment of the manuscript of the hetman’s Pylyp Orlylk’s „Diary” („Diariusz”) from May-June 1730. The methodological basis is the understanding of handwritten notes in terms of combining matters of public importance and private life. The dominance of private discourse in the fragment analyzed here is obvious. In the tenth year of his exile in Thessaloniki, when Hetman Pylyp Orlyk actually lost hope of escaping from „mourning Babylon”, the eldest son came to the father incognito under a disguised name. The hetman’s diary entries about his last meeting with his son in Thessaloniki are extremely sincere and touching. These notes represent picturesque figures of people whom fate brought to distant Thessaloniki. Not only father and son, but the whole environment – multi-ethnic, multifunctional, multi-religious, multilingual, but still able to understand the threat of pandemic and war. In general, the „Diary” of 1720–1732 pp. – which is one of the largest in the history of world literature – is the dominant motive is „discourses”: conversations, games, discussions, including theological and philosophical. The arrival of his son inspires a powerful anthropology of memory. The conversations refresh those experiences that are related to everything that happened before and after the Poltava battle. And it was this defeat that shocked the whole being of the hetman. According to Vladislav Tatarkevich, none of the other events gives as much suffering as wars, including lost ones. The hetman noted in detail the meetings and conversations with his son. They convincingly testify that his young diplomat is a new type of figure, a strategist of the European type. Hryhor (Grégoire) Orlyk is the successor of the project by the hetmans Petro Doroshenko and Ivan Mazepa, seeks to rely on France, which during the 18th century – which was almost the only great power in Christendom – opposed Moscow’s expansion in Europe.

The year when the eighth number of “Themes and Contexts” is published, is unique because we celebrate the 100th anniversary of the restoration of Poland’s sovereignty. It is also an opportunity to look at the contractual century of the “new” Polish literature. In this context of “duration and changeability”, it is important to discuss the work of outstanding poets and writers of the last century, as well as interpretations of important works. This is a convenient time both for reappraisals and for new interpretations seen from a variable, literary perspective. Thinking about Polish literature in 1918-2018, we had in mind the attempts to establish the hierarchy of the most important literary phenomena in the context of political, constitutional and transformational changes. These issues are discussed in the first group of texts entitled Synthesis and reappraisals. Another group of problems connected with the subject of (Post)modern reading introduces the circle of detailed considerations. The research of Polish literature of the last century is conducted by the authors in two ways. In the first one, the researchers adopted a comparative perspective and analyzed new works compiled with works from the interwar period. The second variant is dominated by the synchronous perspective, in which the authors’ attention is focused on the originality of the latest works and contemporary methodologies of studying a literary work and “modern” contexts (social-media, pop-culture, hyper-text, blogosphere, etc.). The study of contemporary literature in the context of the works of the past century has resulted in interesting literary and cultural findings. This section, titled Views, is a voice of researchers asking for the restoration of forgotten literary writings, artists (Gniatczyński), single works. The articles collected in the volume authorize the conclusion that these conventional chronological frames cover many literary phenomena, as well as the names of writers who created and create an image of Polish literature of the last century.

In this article, I discuss the phenomenon of the Polish Studies’ Meetings in Three Countries: China – Korea – Japan (PSMTC), academic conferences held in Polish, during which Polish philologists from the Far East, as well as from Poland, conduct scientific discourse. Part one of the work focuses on presenting the history and significance of PSMTC. The second part discusses the course of the Sixth Meeting, which took place in autumn 2018 in Seoul (at Hankuk Univeristy of Foreign Studies) and became an important scientific, geopolitical and diplomatic event. The main part of the article analyzes the papers published in 2018/2019 PSMTC yearbook. Various discourses within the area of Polish studies were selected in order to illustrate, among others, the specificity of teaching Polish in the Far East, the research interests of authors from Korea, China, Japan and their translation achievements, as well as the voices of researchers – linguists, Polish as a foreign language teachers, historians, literary scholars – representing Polish universities.
