The article is an attempt to analyse the monograph Passion. Jean-Luc Godard’s Films by Ewa Mazierska. First of all, the author presents and describes the most significant contexts of Jean-Luc Godard’s films. Then he undertakes an analysis of the main plot of the book which appears to be, above all, a good introduction to the work of the French director. Mazierska has systematized and problematized the whole complex filmography of Jean-Luc Godard and that is the biggest merit of her work. However, too laconic analysis of many important (philosophical, political and also historical) aspects of Godard’s art makes the monograph incomplete and can be considered as a serious defect. Still, Passion. Jean-Luc Godard’s Films is a good introduction and a useful guidebook showing the way through over a hundred films of this famous director. More perceptive readers should reach for other books from Mazierska’s publisher ha!art, e.g. Godard. Pasaże by Paweł Mościcki.

In the article, two poems which have the same title Hymn to Aphrodite written by Valery Bryusov in 1912 and 1920 were analyzed and interpreted. The important place in both texts takes mythopoetical figure of the Greek Goddess of love and beauty. In the first poem the author shows Aphrodite as a sculpture made of white marble, which is a carnal human creature at the same time. Each element of her body is a sign: her eyes — watch and see, her lips — express the truth and prophesy, her legs — support the universe, her knees — demand a bow from a man. On the one hand Aphrodite-the Love has somatic dimension, on the other — under her carnal form the depth and mystical secret are hidden. The poet warns against the shallow sensual perception of love. In the second Bryusov’s text, Aphrodite as a personification of love/passion gathers the features of higher creature, and her body becomes the same as the body of the universe: it is scattered in the nature and gives it shape and form. The analysis of both poems written by the Russian decadent shows that it is through carnality that the motive of passion which is pivotal for the poet’s creation is realized. The passion is strong and at the same time tearful, but it is worthy of worship and respect.

In presented paper we are describing the philosophical and ethical question of Justice in the works of F. M. Dostoyevsky, specifically in the novel Demons. Justice as a phylogenetic heritage of man and mankind, which has been affected over the course of years in the process of ages by socio-political changes of subsequent civilisations, is earning a lot of different connotations and levels. The desire for justice is changing into passion the hunger after being fed up with wealth, fame, unquenchable thirst for power over man, society state. Sick ideas and passions are coming back to man, bringing loss of oneself and his consciousness. The appeal and prophecy of Dostoyevsky are becoming more and more urging: Don’t let sick passions, thirst for wealth and power, selfishness and egoism win. Justice is a continuous activity – communication with the strengths of Truth, Goodness and Beauty which are coded inside everyone and humanity as the meaning of life and its path.

In the history of thought we would hardly find an author accentuating passion in his work as strongly as Kierkegaard did. But his comprehension of passion does not correspond to common usage of the term. The paper begins, therefore, with pointing out to the differences between the common understanding of passion as a strong emotion and Kierkegaard’s specific concept of passion as an essential interest in one’s own existence. However, the main intention of the paper is to offer an interpretation of his specific concept of passion as the will to existence based on the analysis of the correlative relationship between passion and existence. Some positive aspects of passion as found in Kierkegaard’s authorship are outlined as well.

The article presents the author's attempt to define a particular kind of people who realize various types of interests with a strong commitment - the 'hobbyists'. Primarily open to scrutiny, is how the typical patterns of their careers are being constructed. Moreover, both the significant others' negative reactions to hobbyists' activity, and the reasons of why they act in a certain way are elucidated. Hobbyists' strategies and actions undertaken in order to defend against 'deviants' stigmatization', and their struggle for a status of being 'normal' are presented in (ewentualnie the further parts of) this article. The 'revealed' (lub reconstructed) strategies are: Professionalization of hobbyist's passion; 'Factual' denial of stereotypical view; Dividing 'normal' hobbyists from 'deviant' ones, Underlining one's exceptionality (dramatization) in order to gain the acceptance; Using humor and sarcasm; Distancing from the one's social world.
