Man, curious about the world, learns about the surrounding reality in various ways. In exploring knowledge of reality, he uses his senses and intellect. For centuries, it was believed that all data that the intellect possesses is delivered to him through the senses. It is obvious that we receive most news from the world around us through the sense of sight and hearing. However, this does not change the fact that the other senses, that is, smell, touch and taste, play a significant role in our everyday lives and in exploring the reality around us. Following this thinking and focusing on the sense of smell, it can be concluded that we can try to learn about the world by smelling it. In the following article I describe the role of fragrances in the poetry of Propercius. For the sake of maintaining a certain methodological order, at the beginning I introduce the figure of a Roman poet. Then, I briefly comment the translation into Polish, which is my direct source for work. Next, I point to individual examples of the functioning of the fragrance category in the work of the said author. After analyzing the mentioned fragments, I allow myself to make a certain synthesis and draw conclusions.

Tak zwane nowe media redefiniują relacje społeczne w mikro- i makrowymiarze. Użytkownik mediów sprzed pięciu czy sześciu dekad i użytkownik współczesny to dwa różne podmioty. W ciąg pół wieku zmieniły się funkcje poszczególnych mediów, ich rola w społeczeństwie, a tym samym wzorce percepcji użytkowników. Odbiorca z początku XXI wieku jest zupełnie inaczej wyposażony antropologicznie niż jego medialny antenat w latach 60. minionego stulecia. Niemniej rzecz pozostaje bez istotnych zmian, zarówno w świecie realnym, jak i kreowanym przez media. W obu mamy do czynienia z uprzywilejowaną pozycją wzroku i słuchu, zaś smak, węch i dotyk pozostają na obrzeżach uwagi, chociaż odpowiadające im wrażenia też są powszechne. W artykule skupiam uwagę przede wszystkim na zmyśle węchu, ale też ściśle z nim powiązanym zmyśle smaku. Zapach jako zbyt ulotny i nieokreślony, niedający się mierzyć w takim stopniu jak dźwięk czy obraz, ustępuje pola zmysłom bardziej trwałym i jednoznacznym. Obecność zapachu w produkcjach filmowych należy uznać za skrajnie marginalną, co związane jest, jak sądzę, głównie z możliwościami technologicznymi, czy też raczej z ich brakiem w tym zakresie. Stawiam w tekście tezę, iż pewne filmy winno oglądać się nosem i kubkami smakowymi, przez co stają się one źródłem poznawczego pogubienia, bowiem ich istotne cechy są poza zasięgiem zmysłowym odbiorcy. W trakcie analizy filmowych przykładów nabieram przekonania, iż filmowy realizm (ale nie tylko realizm) wymaga polisensoryczności, w przeciwnym razie mamy do czynienia z epistemiczną schizofrenią. Powyższy namysł został podjęty w kontekście dwóch teorii komunikowania społecznego: klasycznej propozycji M. McLuchana oraz kognitywnej teorii filmu.

The so-called new media redefine social relations both on a micro and a macro scale. A media user from five or six decades ago is an entirely different subject to a modern user. Within half a century, the roles of particular media, their social functions, and consequently users’ patterns of perception all changed. A 21st-century recipient is, as far as anthropology is concerned, equipped totally differently to one from the 1960s. Nevertheless, one thing remains unchanged in the real and the media worlds alike. Both confront us with the predominance of sight and hearing while taste, smell, and touch are of peripheral interest in spite of the perceptions conveyed through them being all-encompassing. The article focuses primarily on the sense of smell, but also on the closely related taste. Smell is too elusive and indeterminate and cannot be measured to the same extent sound is measured, for instance. Smell therefore has to give way to the more durable and definite senses. Its presence in films is absolutely marginal which is due to, as I perceive it, the technological capabilities in this area, or rather lack thereof. In this text I argue that certain films should be watched with one’s nose and taste buds, are a source of cognitive confusion, since everything important depicted in them is beyond the viewer’s reach. When scrutinising such films, one arrives at a conclusion that cinematic realism (but not only realism) must be multisensory. Otherwise, a case of epistemic schizophrenia occurs. The above reflection is undertaken in the context of two theories of social communication, namely M. McLuhan’s classic proposal and the cognitive theory of film.

The article explores the role of sensory feeling sand, smell and touch above all, in the image of social hierarchies and complex psycho-physical relationship of mother and daughter (the child) in the short story Piggy written bya modern Russian writer Svetlana Vasilenko. The author of the article uses the methodology of the feminist criticism and ideas of Julia Kristevaincluded in her book Powers of Horror: An Essay on Abjection are used for analysis. The article shows that the smell and touchin the story mark, on the one hand, feelings of shame and fear of marginalization. These are associated with both the social hierarchies and gender dichotomy. On the other hand, the image of these sensations is involved in the discussion of categories such a sfemininity, maternity, natural and cultural.

The aim of this article is to disrupt the “optocentric” paradigm that dominates criticism on travel writing. The main focal points are scent-based impressions and their formulation and function in the text. To this end, the article analyzes a sampling of Polish and Serbian travel writing on China from the turn of the twentieth century.

The novel The Idiot by F.M. Dostoyevsky is considered from the point of view of its composite communication with sensory motifs (visual, acoustical, tactile, olfactory). The understanding of the functioning of these motifs underlies the analysis of figurative and thematic structure, and some artistic details of the writer’s poetics. In the article it is shown that the sensory perception in Dostoevsky connects with the cognitive through the relations of symbiotic continuity. We showed connections between the areas of human activity — perception and understanding — and their interference in the text. Sight and hearing are understood by us as the key elements of a linear creation of a plot, touch and smell, in turn — as factors facilitating studying of some features of the author’s poetics. Organizing this material with a purpose to present various receptive fields (sight, hearing, tactile and olfactory perceptions) taking into account their mutual relations and dynamics, allows to reveal the author’s idea on a deeper and motivated level.

The purpose of this article is to determine the function of one of the minor literary motifs present in the Roman literature of the Augustan period, i.e., the motif of the perfumed and wealthy Arab and fragrant and rich Arabia. This goal is achieved here in two steps: first, the appropriate source material is compiled, and then the material is analysed and the conclusions are formulated. The source material in this case is seventeen extracts from Virgil, Horace, Tibullus, Pseudo-Tibullus, Propercius and Ovid. These fragments were divided into those, in which the respective fragrance motif was embedded in the axiological context (sixteen fragments), and those, in which the motif appears in the neutral context (one fragment). Among the first there were separated those, in which the positive axiological context is dealt with (ten fragments), and those, in which the negative axiological context is dealt with (six fragments). The fragments of the first type mention the value of a woman (four fragments), religious activities (three fragments), the Roman land (two fragments) and peace (one fragment), while the fragments of the second type express the worthlessness of wealth (five fragments) and remoteness from the loved person (one fragment). In turn, the analysis was carried out in two steps. First, it was found that Latin poets and writers of the Augustan period use the fragrance motif when they value, whether positively or negatively, people or things or situations, or activities, and that these writers use the motif discussed here to build images that appeal to the public. Secondly, it was established that the Arabic motif is expressed at the same time in a lot of different words, should all the fragments in which it appears, be taken together, and in few words, should each of the fragments should be considered separately.
