The aim of the article is to look at the identity of an old woman on the example of works by Anna Świrszczyńska, which were compared with selected paintings. It was emphasized that the specificity of the poet’s artistic creation, her way of presenting a woman’s point of view to all phenomena and feelings, did not lead to the negation of male reality, but constituted its complement. The intended interdisciplinary nature of discourse is justified by the belief that the diversity of linguistic message multiplies the strength of art’s influence, empathically orientates recipients to the uniqueness as well as the individuality of the subject’s existential relationship with the world in works of art.

Celem artykułu jest ogląd tożsamości starej kobiety na przykładzie utworów Anny Świrszczyńskiej, które porównano z wybranymi pracami malarskimi. Podkreślono, że specyfika kreacji artystycznej poetki, jej sposób prezentacji kobiecego punktu widzenia na wszelkie zjawiska i uczucia, nie prowadziła do negacji rzeczywistości męskiej, lecz stanowiła jej uzupełnienie. Zamierzona interdyscyplinarność dyskursu ma uzasadnienie w przekonaniu, że różnorodność językowego przekazu zwielokrotnia siłę oddziaływania sztuki oraz empatycznie orientuje odbiorców na niepowtarzalność i jednostkowość doświadczenia egzystencjalnej relacji podmiotu ze światem w dziełach sztuki.

The specific conditions of the art market constitute a perfect place in which crime can function well and flourish by making use of increasingly more sophisticated mechanisms used in the international trade in these objects. There are certain myths, such as the myth of the dual market (legal and illegal), the myth of faith in national law and in soft law, or the myth of a young market. However, reality shows a poor understanding of the mechanisms that are present in the art market and a spreading of those myths, which in consequence leads to a further strengthening of the pathologies that do exist in the market, such as, among other things, corruption, price manipulation, or the legalization of stolen or excavated objects. In this paper, the pathologies occurring in the art market are categorized and the case study presented shows the practical difficulty of solving the conflict that arises between a seller (owner) and a buyer in good faith as well as the shortcomings of the new model referred to as an eternal rhombus.

The article outlines methodological problem of essential social competences formation by means of Ukrainian literature with emphasis on national features of Ukrainian people and the challenges of our time concerning national-patriotic education particularly in the study of art works of Ukrainian literature. The author offers specific, tested in the learning process ways of implementation of competence approach at the Ukrainian literature lessons, methods of interactive and group learning for activity-based lessons, innovative techniques, technologies, that would help all subjects of activity to realize educational objectives, create an individually oriented atmosphere of democratic and effective learning. We constantly see that the modern methodological science is updated very quickly. It is necessary to constantly perceive the new technologies, teaching models, educational approaches, combine them, provide them with practical guidance, supplement and implement them. The article refers to the competence approach implementation, which is now seen by teachers as one of advanced ways that directs the educational process to achieve the results, i.e. formation of the core competences of graduates in general and specialized subjects. The author points out the approaches to the social competences formation taking national traits, features of character, mentality of the Ukrainian people into account. Those are clearly reflected in the works of Ukrainian art, because this issue was not given the necessary attention in theoretical works and practical research of scientists and methodologists. Literary education is an important factor in the education of the citizen-patriot of Ukraine; Ukrainian literature is a powerful carrier of identity of Ukrainian nation and language of its genetic code. Methods, techniques and objectives, proposed by the author of the article, could be used by philologists in their practice; some of the author’s assertions may encourage teachers to research activities. The materials of this article can be used by the teachers-philologists for realization of the competence approach to teaching the lessons of Ukrainian literature, specific methods, techniques, and tasks will help teachers in practical activity with the purpose of formation of pupil’ national and social competencies.

Odbudowa państwa polskiego po 1918 r. wymagała podjęcia wielu decyzji dotyczących powołania nowej administracji, instytucji oraz przeprowadzenia reformy gospodarczej, której celem było upełnorolnienie chłopów nieposiadających ziemi lub utrzymujących się z nieefektywnych gospodarstw karłowatych. Nowy kierunek polityki nie tylko przyczynił się do zmian w strukturze własnościowej gospodarstw, ale poważnie zagroził funkcjonowaniu wielkich majątków ziemiańskich i zachowaniu znajdujących się tam dworów, pałaców oraz innych obiektów historycznych. W tej sytuacji podjęto próby, inicjowane przede wszystkim przez towarzystwa naukowe, wprowadzenia dodatkowych aktów prawnych chroniących historyczne budynki, zespoły architektoniczne oraz wyjątkowe tereny krajobrazowe. Projekty przewidywały nie tylko wydawanie ogólnokrajowych zarządzeń, ale również budowę całej struktury organizacji odpowiedzialnych za zachowanie obiektów i miejsc zabytkowych oraz działania na rzecz popularyzacji wiedzy o nich.

The reconstruction of the Polish state after 1918 required many decisions concerning the establishment of a new administration, institutions and economic reform, the aim of which was the so-called upełno-rolnienie (an increase in the size of a small agricultural holding by a sufficient amount of land) of peasants who did not own land or made a living from inefficient small farms. The new policy direction not only influenced the changes in the ownership structure of farms, but also seriously threatened the functioning of large landed estates and the preservation of manors, palaces and other historical objects located there. In this situation, attempts were made, initiated mainly by scientific societies, to introduce additional legal acts protecting historical buildings, architectural complexes and unique landscape areas. The projects provided not only for the issuing of nationwide orders, but also for the construction of the entire structure of organizations responsible for the preservation of historic buildings and sites and activities to promote knowledge about them.

The present study is to provide a concise analysis of and present (in extenso) fragments of the so-called "Büsching Papers" dealing with the Norbertine Monastery in Wrocław. They include Büsching’s First report on the seizure of objects kept in the Monastery of St. Vincent in Wrocław (8 January 1811), Inventory of art collections and manuscripts as well as selected letters associated with these actions. The sources contain information not only about the contents and organisation of the library and the archives, but also about their location and furnishings. In addition, they contain details of the seizure of these resources. The inventory of art collections includes paintings and reliefs as well as richly illustrated books devoted to art and, in particular, the history and theory of architecture. Like in the report, there are attempts here to establish the authors of the most outstanding paintings (e.g. Salvatore Rosa, Michael Leopold Willmann).

The issues discussed in this article concentrate on selected legal and economic aspects of the art rental institution. Civil Code regulations do not contain a specific art rental contract. It is shown in practice that temporary loans of historic objects (or, in a broader sense, culture goods) take place on the basis of a loan contract, leasing contract or a commodate. What is worth our attention is the fact that the art rental institution should be approached on two layers. The first one includes temporary loans of historic objects for display purposes in Poland, the other represents the promotion of the Polish culture abroad and participation of Polish historic objects in foreign exhibitions. From an economic point of view, the art rental services market is not identical with the art market. Consumers of these two markets differ greatly from one another, thus, they cannot be classified in conjunction. The market analysis carried out in this study indicated an increase in the number of companies specialised in temporary loans of historic objects, which allows us to speculate that there is certain demand for a given service. Is it true that a trend consisting in temporary loans of works of art for decorative purposes has found its way to Poland?
