The article investigates the role and position of a woman in Sarmatian culture, which is one of the most characteristic periods in Polish history. Those days it was assumed that Polish gentry stems from an Ancient brave Sarmatian people. A real Old-Polish noblemen was a devoted Catholic who strongly propagated family and social ties. However, how was an ideal Sarmatian woman depicted? Was her position in the family hierarchy lower, equal or higher than the man’s? Undeniably, in literature, female portrait was frequently being omitted. It was not until the 16th century that the word “woman” began to occur in the works of Old-Polish writers. In this work the perfect picture of a lady, presented in Old-Polish books, has been taken under closer inspection. These images influenced consciousness creation of Sarmatian society. The analysis is based on putting Old-Polish books in chronological order, and then characteristic descriptions of a woman have been identified in the texts. Finally, the layout of the article has been divided into three parts: woman as a mother, woman as a wife and woman as a housewife.

The paper discusses the position of women in Romani society. The author presents the var- ious roles a romni (Romani for woman) plays. She refers to the rules of the moral and ethical code (romanipen) that significantly affects female behavior, determines the relationship be- tween females and males, and assigns women a lower position in society than men. The paper also discusses the ‘impurities’ that constitute a specific weapon Romani women can wield against men. The author observes the changes that are taking place in the world of modern romnis. They are increasingly more educated, professionally active and make independent decisions con- cerning their own future. It should be borne in mind, however, that they continue to live in a closed community that guards its traditions, language and privacy. To change the life of Romani women would mean their leaving this community and abandoning the fundamental principles of Romani life, which is difficult. Romani women do not struggle for these princi- ples to be abandoned completely, thus giving them equal rights. They continue to guard their traditions and hearth and home.

The next parliamentary elections in Poland will be held on the basis of the amended elec- toral law. The changes introduced involve a quota system: the ballots are required to provide for at least 35% of women and at least 35% of men. Nearly a hundred years passed from 1918, when Polish women first won voting rights, till the President of Poland signed the so-called parity law. It would not be true, however, to say that this was a century of struggle for the equality of rights of men and women in our country. It was only after 1989 that efficient steps could be taken in this area in Poland. Therefore, the quota system that has been introduced, to be tested in practice soon, is actually the consequence of twenty years of endeavors. The advocates of such a solution consider this to be the first step towards electoral parity. Following the solutions that numerous European countries have introduced, public debate in Poland increasingly more often refers to proposals to ‘spread’ the quota system, and then parity, also to other domains, such as management or education. The opening of a serious debate on these issues will to a large extent depend on the results of the recent quota changes of the electoral law.

Problems arising due to adoption of a course of action in respect to convicted women, constitute an important aspect of penitentiary nature. Other issue, which arouses much controversy, concerns the children who live with their mothers in correctional facilities located within premises of prison facilities. Correctional Facilities for Women and their Children have long been recognized in the Polish jurisdiction and despite criticism they had received, the Penal Executive Code still maintains this institution in force. In Poland there are two facilities designed for incarcerated mothers and their children: Correctional Facility no. 1 in Grudziądz, comprising only a delivery-gynecological room as well as a Facility for Small Children, and Correctional Facility in Krzywaniec comprising a Facility for Mothers and their Children. The purpose of this article is to make its readers familiar with chosen problems related to the execution of imprisonment in respect to women who are serving sentences together with their children.

Introduction: Satisfaction with medical care is defined as the patient’s level of acceptance of healthcare, taking into account his or her needs and expectations. Purpose: Determining the level of satisfaction with care in the early postnatal period. Identification of factors affecting the level of satisfaction with care in the early postnatal period. Materials and methods: The study covered 100 women aged 15-45, patients of the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department. The study employed the diagnostic survey method, using a custom-designed questionnaire. Results: 68% of hospitalized patients rated the conditions in the unit as good and very good. According to 42% of them, both the doctors and the midwives provided the patients with exhaustive information and expressed empathy. 54% of the surveyed women had not been acquainted with the floor plan of the unit, and 75% of the personnel had not revealed their names or functions to the patients. Conclusions: More than a half of the respondents assessed the level of care as good or very good. Assessing the early postnatal care they received, they mostly considered the conditions ensured by the hospital, the level of care from the personnel, both with respect to the women and newborns, and the general atmosphere in the unit.

The article aims to analyse the relationship between the writer, her text and imagination that is influenced by the image of death. In Gruszecka’s novels this is revealed mostly by the way in which the author presents her heroines, whose existence is uncertain, phantom­‑like. In reference to the works of Hélène Cixous and Jerzy Grotowski, the author of the article considers how the body is presented (regarded as a certain type of an archive) as a source of the text existing between life and death. In this context ‘writing (with) the body’ could be understood as a mode of ‘stillness’ as to give way to the life that comes (also from the past and memory) in a momentary experience of self­‑mortality.

In this article I focus my attention on the archetype of women in Sardinian cinema. First of all, I explain the definition of the cinematographic movement which dominates Sardinia and I try to find the answer if Sardinian cinema (cinema sardo) exists. The next part of this paper shows the division of the cinema in Sardinia into two categories: seen from an external perspective by authors originating off the island and its culture, defined as hetero-representation, and seen from an internal point of view, developed by directors born and culturally raised in Sardinia, defined as self-representation. In the second part of the paper, I write about the term il deleddismo, which means the picture of Sardinia seen by the writer Grazia Deledda. Gianni Olla uses this term with reference to the cinema, il deleddismo cinematografico, as a way to enter the Sardinian world from the cinematic point of view. In early Sardinian cinema, stereotypes aimed at educating society and in the case of women by the merits of 20th-century ideology — to show them how they should behave. In recent decades this has not changed completely, but the figure of the modern woman is more often shown as the main character, who possesses far more power than her predecessors.

This paper is concerned with the feminisation of contemporary Polish historical novel, especiallyof its biographical variant. Transforming traditional narratives and restoring the memoryof women in history are the most important tasks of herstory, a discipline born in the twentiethcentury out of the question about the role and place of women in the history of humankind. The authorof this paper pays particular attention to the texts of popular culture, especially biographical novelsabout women written by female writers, such as Ewa Stachniak, Janina Lesiak and Alina Zerling--Konopka. Historical novels written by female authors bring into sharp focus the postulates of feministliterary criticism, such as reclaiming the history of women by filling in the gaps in historicalnarratives and shifting the point of view, which allows for the depiction of the activity of womenin the fields traditionally considered male. What emerges from such novels are unobvious themes,but also the revision of the solidified images of famous figures. However, a considerable numberof those texts does not translate into their artistic merit.

The article tells the story of “Ster”, the first radical feminist magazine in Poland. It was first published in 1895–1896 in Lviv under the title “Ster. A magazine about the work and education of women”, and examined socio-cultural matters from the point of view of emancipated women. The editor-in-chief was Paulina Kuczalska-Reinschmit, and its writers included Eliza Orzeszkowa, Maria Konopnicka, Maria Dulębianka and Stefan Żeromski. After Kuczalska-Reinschmit moved to Warsaw, she reactivated the magazine as a bulletin for the Association of Emancipated Polish Women. It was then published from 1907 until the outbreak of World War I. The magazine presented the radical programme of Polish feminists. Among its later writers were P. Kuczalska-Reinschmit, Józefa Bojanowska and Romana Pachucka.

Gender theory concerns most areas of woman‘s existence in a society and an artistic text is one of many subject manifestations, which may and is likely to influence public opinions. After the period of literature dominated by heroines fighting for the rights, the woman­‑provocateurs came to set free not only their bodies, but also their souls. Apart from the male–female relations (gender theory), Olga Tokarczuk’s short story Najbrzydsza kobieta świata (tr. The Ugliest Woman of World) reveals various aspects of women’s writing, in particular – the aesthetics of ugliness. Within this milieu, the ugliness is locked in two stands: 1. the direct characteristics of the ugliest woman in the world and 2. the shocking element of the suffering aesthetics, namely, the exposure of woman by the others.

The article addresses the issue of single motherhood for women in individual, social and pedagogical aspects. The personality and social conditions of single motherhood were analysed. Two main contexts of experiencing motherhood by contemporary women were pointed out, which are social norms and cultural patterns as well as individual, intrapsychic conditions of perceiving oneself as a mother. Social references and pedagogical conditions of single motherhood were shown. It was pointed out that the way women experience motherhood depends to a large extent on family, professional, colleague situations and random events. While discussing the issues of loneliness and solitude, the pedagogical aspect of this phenomenon and the multitude of possible attitudes and references to motherhood experienced were pointed out. The article indicates that social expectations for single mothers imply how women perceive their motherhood and how it affects the pedagogical dimension of its implementation. Motherhood as a conscious decision of a woman and as an undesirable state, as a consequence of events over which the woman-mother has no influence – these are other versions of motherhood described and analysed in the article. The article ends with considerations on the pedagogical dimension of the implementation of motherhood, and therefore on the role and place of children and family as the closest environment of women-mothers. The final part also indicates the need for institutional support for single mothers and their families.

The present essay discusses the imagery of emptiness, or hollowness, of human bodies as it evolved in Czech Surrealism throughout the 1930s. Among the striking examples are images of hollow women by Toyen (1902–1980), some of which are analyzed here. Crucial for any detailed account of Toyen’s work, they invite observations that lead beyond the purely visual, including the presence of cultural melancholy, the force of peinture féminine, and the interfaces of art and poetry. The article establishes a selection of Toyen’s ‘hollow bodies’ from the 1930s and connects them with two major representatives of modern Czech poetry, Vítězslav Nezval (1900–1958) and František Halas (1901–1949, both of whom used the motif of hollowness in their poetry. Halas, moreover, can be considered as a representative of melancholy poetry in the 1930s. The article subsequently documents the presence of the motif of hollowness in Toyen’s drawings of the late 1930s and, in particular, the drawings that accompany the illustrated books she did in collaboration with the surrealist poet Jindřich Heisler (1914–1953) in the 1940s. The analysis suggests that at this point Toyen’s imagery loses the melancholy quality, assumes the quality of fear, and becomes generalized. The article concludes with a brief comparison between Toyen and František Muzika (1900–1974). The juxtaposition suggests that Muzika’s concept of female torsos are not necessarily expressions of melancholy but allegoric images of mourning related to the destruction of Czechoslovakia in 1938–1939.

Předkládaná studie pojednává o tom, jakým způsobem se v českém surrealismu vyvíjel v třicátých létech 20. století motiv prázdného, popřípadě „dutého“ lidského těla. K hlavním příkladům patří obrazy „dutých žen“ od Toyen (1902–1980), z nichž některé jsou zde analyzovány. Jejich detailní popis vede k úvahám, které zdůrazňují přítom- nost kulturní melancholie, perspektivu peinture féminine a provázanost umění a poezie. Článek spojuje tyto práce Toyen s dvěma významnými představiteli moderní české poezie, Vítězslavem Nezvalem (1900–1958) a Františkem Halasem (1901–1949), v jejichž poezii hraje motiv prázdnoty významnou roli. Halas může být ve třicátých letech navíc považován za reprezentanta melancholické poezie. Studie následně dokumentuje přítomnost motivu prázd- noty u Toyen v pozdních třicátých letech a potom zejména v kresbách pro ilustrované knihy, které vznikly ve spolupráci se surrealistickým básníkem Jindřichem Heislerem (1914–1953) ve čtyřicátých letech. Analýza naznačuje, že v tomto okamžiku Toyen opouští pole melancholie, zdůrazňuje kvalitu strachu a motiv prázdnoty posouvá za motiv ženských torz. Studie končí krátkým srovnáním mezi Toyen a Františkem Muzikou (1900–1974). Srovnání naznačuje, že u Muziky nejsou ženská torza nezbytně projevy melancholie, ale alegorie smutku bezprostředně motivované zničením Československa v letech 1938–1939.
