Intensywność Wata

100%
EN
The article discusses a collection of literary essays Elementy do portretu. Szkice o twórczości Aleksandra Wata published and edited by Poznań-based specialists in Polish literature and dedicated to Professor Ewa Wiegandt. The starting point for the discussion is the observation that the authors of the essays had to grapple with the elusiveness and multidimensional character of the output of A. Wat, with the entanglement of the text of his works with the text of his biography, and finally with the multitude of its cultural contexts. The reviewer distinguishes four research currents in the collection of essays, each being a different answer to these particular traits of Wat’s writing. Historical and literary studies in the book show the author in his relations and as a non-categorizable author, and challenge the Futurist character of his juvenile writings by juxtaposing them with earlier Symbolism and later Catastrophism. The interpretative study current tries to find ways to define Wat through reading his individual works. Here, the overriding opposition between ”closeness” and ”openness”, so pivotal in the poet’s works, becomes apparent. The current of thematology that present Wat’s literary topoi in relation to his biography is well represented in the volume. Finally, the studies that cross the strictly literary horizon try to capture the multi-tier structures of Wat’s works, reinterpreting them from the sociological, historical or axiological perspectives. The final conclusion of the review is the acknowledgement of the richness offered by the book that corresponds well to the intensity of works and the biography of the author.

Jednym z czynników, które przez wieki kształtowały kulturę Zachodu, jest tradycja judeochrześcijańskaoparta o Biblię. Motywy, cytaty i symbole zaczerpnięte z kart Biblii przenikałydo języków europejskich i oddziaływały, zarówno na kulturę wysoką, jak i popularną.Inspiracji biblijnych po wielokroć można doszukać się także w muzyce metalowej. Pracaniniejsza jest próbą krótkiego scharakteryzowania co oryginalniejszych motywów biblijnychpojawiających się w tekstach zespołów metalowych, zwracając jednocześnie uwagę naniewielkie dotychczas zainteresowanie tym aspektem tradycji biblijnej w opracowaniachnaukowych.

One of the many factors which has been creating the west culture is the Judeo-Christiantradition based on the Bible. Motives, quotations and symbols that are coming from the Biblehave been permeating to the European languages as well as they have influenced both thehigh culture and the popular culture. Moreover, the biblical inspirations can be found in metalmusic as well. The underlying paper constitutes an attempt of brief characterization when itcomes to more original biblical motives that are constantly appearing in the lyrics of metalbands, simultaneously, it emphasizes a slight current interest of this biblical aspect in thescientific researches.

The Souls Of Europe

77%
EN
How should Europe deal politically with its legacy as a so-called "Christian civilization"? Should this imply an overt reference to God or to the Christian or Judeo-Christian tradition in European constitutional documents (as was debated when the so-called "Treaty Establishing a Constitution for Europe" was tabled)? This debate raised the old "politico-theological problem": does a political order need some kind of metaphysical or religious grounding, a "soul", or can it present itself as a purely rational order, the result of a utilitarian calculus? In this article it is argued that the secular idea of the state as an inherent element in the "Judeo-Christian tradition", for a "divine state" usurps a place that is only God's. So, this religious tradition itself calls for a secular state, and this inherent relationship between religion and secularity has become a key element for the interpretation of European civilization, most notably in the idea of a separation of the church and the state. But the very fact that this is a religious idea does imply that the European political order cannot be seen as a purely rational political order without a soul. The idea of a "plural soul" is proposed as a way out of the dilemma.

Santrauka Kaip politine prasme Europa turėtų pasielgti su savu vadinamuoju "krikščioniškosios civilizacijos" palikimu? Ar šis palikimas turėtų atvirai nurodyti Dievą arba krikščioniškąją, arba žydiškąją-krikščioniškąją, tradiciją, aptinkamą konstituciniuose Europos dokumentuose (kai buvo svarstoma pateikta vadinamoji "Sutartis dėl Konstitucijos Europai")? Ši diskusija iškėlė seną "politinę-teologinę problemą": ar politinei santvarkai reikia tam tikro metafizinio, ar religinio pamato, "sielos"? O gal ta politinė santvarka gali būti suprantama kaip grynai racionali tvarka, kaip utilitarinės apskaitos rezultatas? Šiame straipsnyje įrodinėjama, kad sekuliarios valstybės idėja yra neatsiejama nuo "žydiškosioskrikščioniškosios tradicijos", dėl "Dievo valstybės" uzurpuojanti paties Dievo vietą. Tad ši religinė tradicija reikalauja sekuliarios valstybės, o nesuardomas religijos ir sekuliarumo santykis tapo kertiniu akmeniu Europos civilizacijos interpretacijoje, labiausiai išryškėjančiu bažnyčios ir valstybės perskyros idėjoje. Tačiau pats faktas, kad ši idėja yra religinio pobūdžio, leidžia teigti, jog politinė Europos santvarka negali būti vertinama kaip grynai racionali politinė santvarka, neturinti sielos. "Grynosios sielos" idėja čia siūloma kaip galimas išeities taškas, sprendžiant minėtą dilemą.
