Self-immolation is understood in this text as a public act of self-sacrifi ce and a type of altruistic suicide. In order to capture its specifi city it seems necessary to employ a compound category of ‘act-performance’ because – on the one hand – it is an act of sacrifi cial suicide, and on the other – it is carried out publicly and demonstratively, like a performance (i.e. with attention to every element of the event, just as happens in other types of public performance). Acts of this type have become a part of the arsenal of peaceful protest activities since the second half of the twentieth century. Th is happened aft er the media publicized act-performance (11 June 1963) of Vietnamese Buddhist monk, Th ích Quảng Ðức, which becomes the main point of focus in this study.

As death returned to make its mark on the world with the COVID-19 pandemic and, consequently, resurfaced in the social imaginary, we have found ourselves once again full-throatedly asking questions about what it means to die well. These issues lie at the heart of W;t, an American play penned in the early 1990s by Margaret Edson, which could be situated alongside other fictional and true stories that “provide social scripts for dying” (Knox). The play might also be viewed as a modern reference to the medieval tradition of ars bene moriendi and the morality plays linked with that tradition in a symbiotic, synergistic manner. The essay attempts to demonstrate that the meaning underlying Edson’s play (and its television adaptation of 2001) derives primarily from its grappling with the subject of human’s agency in the face of the inevitable. In its close reading of the play, the essay moves between the text, first published in print in 1999, and the screen, to best tap into the interpretive potential of comparing the drama and its film adaptation.

W artykule przedstawiono możliwości zastosowania metod inżynierii odwrotnej w kryminalistyce. Dokonano przeglądu dostępnych technologii reverse engineering oraz podano przykłady ich wykorzystania we wspomaganiu czynności kryminalistycznych. Przedstawiono metodę rekonstrukcji obiektów za pomocą technicznej tomografii komputerowej oraz podano przykład zastosowania tej metody do analizy geometrii łusek pochodzących od odstrzelonych nabojów pistoletowych kal. 7,62 mm wz. 30 (powystrzałowych kalibru 7,62 mm).

The paper presents the possibility of using reverse engineering in forensic science. Available reverse engineering technologies and examples of their use as a helpful forensic research tool are reviewed. A method of reconstruction of objects using computed tomography technology was described, as well as an example the application of this method to the analysis of the geometry of ignited 7.62 mm calibre model 30 pistol cartridge shells (7.62 mm calibre projectile).
