„Encyklopedierotyk” Ewy Kuryluk jest znaczącą pozycją w dorobku pisarki. Stanowi swoistą tarczę obrotową w jej twórczości: powoli uwalniając żywioł autobiografii, kończy okres postmodernistyczny. Powieść pasożytuje na XVIII-wiecznej tradycji epistolarnej. Jest postmodernistyczną mistyfikacją, w której nie da się już odróżnić prawdy od fałszu. W artykule autor dowodzi więc, że tekst działa na zasadach Baudrillardowskiej symulacji – zarówno czarującej (uwodzenie, iluzja, malarstwo trompe-l’oeil), jak i odczarowanej (pornografia, hiperrealizm). Mechanizm symulacji pozwala opisać niejasne dotąd strategie Kuryluk, która przeplatając iluzyjne rekonstrukcje hiperrealnymi szczegółami, zarazem ukrywa i udostępnia biografię, uwodzi i odwodzi czytelnika od siebie. Symulacja wiąże się także ze strukturą powieści – iluzyjnością budulca – listu, z obecnym w niej zawieszonym, uwodzącym dyskursem naukowym, oraz stanowi kolejne „zakrycie autobiograficzne” w twórczości Kuryluk.

Ewa Kuryluk’s “Encyklopedierotyk” (“Encyclopaedioerotic”) occupies a significant place in the writer’s output. It is viewed as turning point in her creativity: it completes the postmodern period while gradually releasing the element of autobiography. The novel parasites on the 18th c. epistolary tradition; it is a postmodern mystification where one cannot tell the true from the false. The author thus is trying to prove that the text works on Jean Baudrillard’s principles of simulation: both enchanting (seduction, illusion, painting, trompe-l’oeil) and disenchanted (pornography, hyperrealism). The mechanism of simulation allows for describing to this day unclear strategies of Kuryluk, who, intermingling the illusory reconstructions with hyperreal details, both reveals and conceals the reader from herself. Simulation is also linked to the novel’s structure—illusiveness of building material—the letter that contains a suspended and seducing scientific discourse, as well as marks a consecutive “autobiographical hiding” in Kuryluk’s creation.

Meter as a simulacrum This text presents an attempt to conceptualize the poetics of versification in Kamil Brewiński’s poetic book Clubbing (Kraków 2013), with the background of the critical reception of the book, by the view given by the theory of simulation by Jean Baudrillard. The article is based on two unpublished conference speeches presented at conference on “Twenty First Century in Literature”, 2014) and “Poetry – Culture – Poetry. Contemporary Perspectives”, 2015). Some excerpts were used before in my doctoral dissertation (2015).

In his famous book The Consumer Society: Myths and Structures, Jean Baudrillard refers to the model of exchange defined by the myth of the pact with the Devil. The things we sell: our reflections in the mirror, our shadows, or the products of our work do not remain safely separate from us, but instead turn against us and take their revenge, sometimes even bringing us to self-destruction. However, the French philosopher claims that, nowadays, the tragedy of the subject haunted by its spectre is no longer relevant as the subject poses a spectrum, and all transcendence is lost in the order of signs. The structure of the myth about the pact with the Devil appears in Murong Xuecun’s novel Most Die of Greed. In post-reform and opening-up China, an average young man meets a mysterious older millionaire and gets involved in a risky game, in which unbridled consumption leads to degeneration and, eventually, gruesome death. As a 70 hou (post-1970, born in the 1970s) writer, Murong Xuecun addresses the transformations in his generation’s attitudes and values caused by rapid changes in both material and ideological spheres of their lives.

The work of Jean Baudrillard has gained for itself large groups of followers and opponents alike. But Baudrillard is often misinterpreted by both camps. The reason for this, apart from anything else, is the characteristic way in which he gets hold of the “objects” of his interest. When reading his work one witnesses a tendency towards non-standard accounts of subject matter. He operates on the border of its significance and, at the same time, he often (quite intentionally) contradicts himself. In the article I present Baudrillard’s view of the productive theory and the dialectical method. I sketch the reasons why he condemns them and replaces them with the seductive theory-fiction or with theoretical terrorism and reversibility or even with symbolic exchange. These are the strategies by which, with passion, he comes to terms with objects. Many hitherto published studies of the theories of Jean Baudrillard tackle and focus on its concrete elements in contexts of the utmost diversity. This article, on the contrary, is concerned with the theoretico-methodological viewpoint, and it thus serves as a certain kind of general introduction to the investigation of the work of Jean Baudrillard. Baudrillard’s idiosyncratic method is introduced and comparisons are made. A characterisation and mutual comparison is made of the productive and seductive way of theorising. The study also points to the content of these, with stress being placed on Baudrillard’s seductive way. Last but not least theory-fiction, as an independent method, is brought into contrast with method of a dialectical stripe.

The article is an attempt to reconstruct the topographic imagination of Jean Baudrillard. The author interprets his essay, America, placing him in the context of Visions from San Francisco Bay by Czesław Miłosz. Reading America through a spatial perspective allows us not only to see the spatial imagery used to describe the landscape of the New World but also to indicate its hidden symbolism. In other words, through topographical imagery, Baudrillard verbalizes judgments about culture and history. Thus, space becomes an epistemological metaphor and the author’s own philosophical dictionary.

This paper provides an overview of selected philosophical implications connected with the topic of a virtual world as a simulacrum of anthropocentrism. The paper discusses also the impact of the implications on the considerations of the dilemma to what extent the users of a virtual world remain obedient to their moral values and how the virtual world influences being a human in the real world. The concept of a virtual world was initiated by a human because the human being`s intentions are to fulfill his own needs, to cross his individual barriers and, while attempting to his own development, to reach for what is for him instinctively attainable. Human aspirations of creating a virtual world, a look-alike world, emerge finalized but the only residuary conundrum is to assuage one`s desires for finding the good and for defending one`s moral values. A human being is in the centre of existence and is the issue of valence inasmuch as he is ‘the master’ of the world, and, according to the paradigm of anthropocentrism, he is able to achieve what he yearns for. Therefore, it is advisable to contemplate the issue whether a human being desired the virtual world to arise or whether he just wanted to desire the world in his omnipotence. Another alternative for the discussion is to ponder over a human craving for creating a new, better version of a real world and for his subconscious attempts at its annihilation. Because human cognitive faculties – his thoughts and needs are biologically conditioned, the article analyses also a phantasm of a human domination over the real world through the virtual world and a human being`s negation of moral values as well as his control of the limitations of the real world.

Jean Baudrillard and Pierre Bourdieu are two well known French social philosophers that have at least couple of things in common. They were born in the same social conditions, they grew up as rebels, and they participated in Revolution of 1968. They also participated in the very same formal problems of the research work. The problem is, what happens when one introduces same difficulties in one’s ideas as those, that he was searching to neutralize. Bourdieu criticizes the system of education, art, culture in general, because it contributes to reproduction and conservation of social hierarchy. However, he's doing it using quite similar kind of high developed concepts, that he had criticized before. Baudrillard also detests modern social habits. Most of all, so called hyperreality, that manifests itself as a lack of real connection between things and concepts or ideas related to them. Nonetheless Baudrillard seems to adore hyperreality also, as a dimension of game, seduction. Bourdieu, as well as Baudrillard, appears as an adept of pataphysics — according to the definition given to this notion by Baudrillard, based on novels of Alfred Jarry.
