Basically, the Grzegorczyk's concept of mentality, presented in his book 'Psychiczna osobliwosc czlowieka' (2003) ( Psychic Singularity of Man), stems from the culture of the culitvated higher social classes. The authoress considers critically this conception by showing that it is not acceptable on the descriptive level and seriously questionable on the normative one.

Despite a twenty-year span since the historical and political breakthrough of 1989/1990 which led to a reunification of the Federal Republic of Germany and the German Democratic Republic, reception of the new socio-political situation invariably belongs to the most frequently recurring themes in post-reunification German literature. The article brings a compact analysis of the process of transformation in the sphere of identity and mentality in the society of a united Germany, based on an examination of the mirroring of those phenomena in German autobiographical literature after the 'breakthrough'. The question whether the processes and developments connected with the reunification of the two German states are depicted in the newest German literature is often asked in numerous public debates. From the perspective of literary studies it is interesting to investigate not merely the fact whether the newest German literature mirrors those events, but also the mode of their exploration in aesthetic and literary reflection.

Events over recent years have increased global interest in Islam. The article describes the way Muslims are perceived by nowadays Poles. The author examines how the image of the Muslim community and their culture is created and sustained in the mentality of the Polish society. This assertion is supported by usage of a combination of personal experience, evidence obtained from recent polls and other professionals' opinions. The article separates the present profile of the Muslim community created by unbiased political media and the one where Muslims used to be a vital part of Polish history . The author compares the Polish experience with the experience of other European countries, where perception of the Muslim community was shaped by a completely different background such as colonialism and extensive economic migration. The author concludes that even though Muslim culture is easily accesible to many Poles, Islamic issues are is still a terra incognita.

The image of Slovaks in Slovak and Ukrainian journalism is a part of a broader comparison of research on the mentality of Slovaks and Ukrainians and contributes in the theory of knowledge to the linguistic and cultural image of both nations. In the study, the author describes those components (schemes and constructs) that have appeared in Slovak journalism over the past decade, as well as in Ukrainian journalism for the same period. It is therefore a matter of looking at the Slovaks from the inside (by themselves) and from the outside (by their neighbours – the Ukrainians). The author works with the corpus collocative method as one of the linguistic research methods and helps with the description with the method of psycholinguistics.

He focuses on the most typical differences in the perception of the histories of their own countries paying particular attention to the Jewish issue and the different situations of national minorities. The key corroboration of the theses presented in this article is based on the comparison of the differences between the writing of Polish and Hungarian which reflect distinct attitudes of the nations towards their own state.

Methodological implications within the framework of sociological theory about determinancy of socio-historical process allow the author to state the thesis about invariancy of the vector of society development. The hypothesis is based on a statement of stability of socio-cultural component during the periods of social changes, which is verified by historical experience of concrete societies. Generalizing results of own research with a postulate of structure of social action, concepts of autopoietic systems, trans-historical structures and institutional matrices the author makes a conclusion about limitation of possibilities of social creativity and amplitude of alternatives of societal development. In the context of transfomation processes on the post-Soviet territory the assumption is expressed of impossibility of construction in local conditions the Western type liberal societies and market-based economies, as those inappropriate to logic of immanent development.
