Caryl Churchill’s play A Number echoes the author’s attitude towards scientific evolution, having as a result cloning, and its impact on social and moral values and relationships. The paper will focus on identitary problems raised by cloning, on the clash between uniqueness and seriality, on the confusion arising from opportunities and unexpected effects.

Lexical NP and VP quantifiers in BulgarianThe paper focuses on uniqueness, existential and universal quantification within the Bulgarian noun and verb phrase. Quantifiers scope is considered with respect to whether the quantifiers are used alone or in a group with other expressions. Another factor that affects the strength of quantifiers is the expression’s containing additional specifying functions or setting some circumstance or condition. Quantifiers within the verb phrase are particularly strongly affected by other conditions, while quantifiers within the subject NP have a broad scope and are not affected by the additional conditions of the situation described.

The paper aims to defend classical numerical monism against thesis about predicative monism (Barnes, Curd). The instrumentarium is rich in philological-philosophical argumentation. The main line is the thesis of Mourelatos about Greek words on genos, genes suffixes and the argumentation of C.H. Kahn from The thesis on Parmenides. Argumentation is also against localistic interpretation of sphericity of Being in Parmenides.

On Semantic Annotation in Clarin-PL Parallel CorporaIn the article, the authors present a proposal for semantic annotation in Clarin-PL parallel corpora: Polish-Bulgarian-Russian and Polish-Lithuanian ones. Semantic annotation of quantification is a novum in developing sentence level semantics in multilingual parallel corpora. This is why our semantic annotation is manual. The authors hope it will be interesting to IT specialists working on automatic processing of the given natural languages. Semantic annotation defined the way it is defined here will make contrastive studies of natural languages more efficient, which in turn will help verify the results of those studies, and will certainly improve human and machine translations.

About meanings as a rule not included in dictionariesThe article discusses the problem of ambiguity of the exponents of logical existential quantification occurring in the verbal group of Bulgarian, Polish and Russian sentences: Bulg. отвреме навреме, понякога, Pol. od czasu do czasu, czasem, czasami, Rus. время от времени, иногда. This ambiguity can be explained by strong and weak existential quantification. Lexical semantics did not distinguish between these two types of existentiality. Here we present a description of selected exponents of logical existential quantification in Bulgarian, Polish and Russian.

The space between the subjective and objective fills a person’s identity. It is knowledge about oneself, about the difference between oneself and others / strangers, about one’s own actions, their effects and consequences. It is likewise knowledge of one’s own uniqueness, of the consequences of one’s own actions that define the limits of one’s own identity. Identity is a personal internal space, built on the basis of empathy, autonomy, distance, assertiveness, activity, and tolerance. Identity is different dimensions of individuality, uniqueness and separateness, compatibility of thoughts-feelings-actions, self-esteem and intentionality important for interpersonal and social conflicts. It serves to build and consolidate an image of oneself and knowledge about oneself. Identity allows a person to self-reflect, receive insight, evaluate, make changes, and strengthens the image of his/her person, offering a sense of separateness and being yourself.

Prostytucja stanowi specyficzne zjawisko społeczne, które ulega różnorodnym przeobrażeniom. Występuje ono w różnych formach, w każdej kulturze, w różnych klasach i warstwach społecznych. Celem artykułu była analiza zjawiska prostytucji w ujęciu społeczno-demograficznym w latach 50. XX wieku. Uwagę skoncentrowano na przedstawieniu specyfiki zjawiska, jego zmian, ewolucji, uwzględniając warunki społeczne, demograficzne i polityczno-prawne. Główną bazę źródłową stanowiły archiwalia zgromadzone w Instytucie Pamięci Narodowej (przede wszystkim dokumenty sporządzone przez Ministerstwo Spraw Wewnętrznych i Komedę Główną Milicji Obywatelskiej). Wykorzystane w rozprawie źródła zostały poddane analizie i krytyce (wewnętrznej i zewnętrznej), a następnie interpretacji socjologicznej faktów historycznych. W oparciu o źródła i literaturę przedmiotu przeprowadzono analizę, określono specyfikę prostytucji do końca lat 50. XX wieku. Obejmowała ona zarówno cechy społeczno-demograficzne prostytuujących się kobiet oraz problemy (społeczne, prawne, zdrowotne, itp.) związane z analizowanym zjawiskiem. Drogi kobiet do prostytucji były złożone, a zarazem różnorodne. W pierwszej dekadzie lat powojennych prostytutki zazwyczaj wywodziły się głównie z biedoty miejskiej i wiejskiej (najczęściej bez wyuczonego zawodu), z patologicznych środowisk (alkoholików, chuliganów, złodziei itp.) lub rodzin niepełnych. Linia demarkacyjna prostytucji przebiegała między zawodową prostytucją a tzw. półprofesjonalną. Ostatnią kategorię stanowiły kobiety, dla których prostytuowanie się było dorobieniem do otrzymywanej pensji. Biorąc pod uwagę zarobki prostytutek, można zauważyć duże dysproporcje. Najniższe zarobki wynosiły ok. 5 zł (lub towary, np. alkohol), zaś najwyższe sięgały nawet 500 zł. Pod tym względem interesująco wyglądał Szczecin, gdzie średnie zarobki „profesjonalnych prostytutek” były wyższe od „średniej krajowej” i wahały się w granicach 300–500 zł. Także pod względem wykształcenia prostytutek Szczecin przedstawiał się inaczej na tle pozostałych polskich miast. W 1956 roku odnotowano w Szczecinie, jako jedynym mieście, aż 2% kobiet z wyższym wykształceniem, co było konsekwencją portowego charakteru miasta (kontakty z marynarzami obcych bander, rozwinięta sieć lokali nocnych itp.). Z racji wykonywanej profesji prostytutki najczęściej chorowały na alkoholizm, choroby weneryczne, gruźlicę, zaburzenia psychiczne oraz schorzenia „zmniejszające zdolność do pracy”.

Prostitution is a specific social phenomenon, which is liable to various transformations. It has different forms, in each culture, in various social classes and layers. The aim of the article has been to analyse of the phenomenon of prostitution from the point of a socio-demographic view of the 1950s. A special attention was paid to the specificity of the phenomenon, its changes and evolution, according to social, demographic, political and legal conditions. The main source basis were archival records kept in the Institute of National Remembrance (first of all the documents drawn up by the Interior Ministry and the General Headquarters of Civic Militia). The sources used in the research have been analysed and have been subjected to (internal and external) criticism, and next the historical facts have been sociologically interpreted. On the basis of those sources and the literature on the subject a further analysis was carried out and the uniqueness of the prostitution of the 1950s was defined. It included both the socio-demographic features of prostituting women and the problems connected with the phenomenon in question (social, legal, health, etc.). The ways leading to prostitution were diversified and complicated. In the first decade after the war most prostitutes came from the urban and rural poor layers of the society (in most cases without any training or school education), from pathological circles (alcoholics, hooligans, thieves, and the like) or from incomplete families. There were two groups of prostitutes, the professional and semi-professional ones; for the latter prostitution was only work on the side, an additional source of income. Taking into account how much prostitutes earned big disproportions might be observed. The minimum pay was about five zlotys (or a commodity, e.g. alcohol), the maximum pay was even 500 zlotys. Form this point of view, Szczecin was of special interest, where the average pay of ‘professional prostitutes’ were higher than the national average and oscillated between 300 and 500 zlotys. Also from the point of view of their education Szczecin was different from the rest of the country; in 1956 in Szczecin 2% of the prostitutes had university education, which was a consequence of the fact that Szczecin was a big harbour town (contacts with seamen from abroad, a network of night clubs, and the like). Practising their profession prostitutes suffered from alcoholism, venereal diseases, tuberculosis, mental disorders and ‘ailments that decreased their ability to work’.
