This study deals with contemporary Polish reading culture. The authors focus on three areas: (1) research at the National Library, particularly in relation to digital reading; (2) the new Polish Encyclopedia of Books (Encyklopedia książki), a work of colossal size and scope, as well as the state of current thinking on books and their social circulation, which has been fixed for some time; and (3) some individual sources of inspiration from Polish reflections and discussions on reading in the digital age. The authors examine all three areas against the backdrop of the current Czech situation, while endeavouring to ascertain the sociological causes behind the current large decline, and focusing primarily on the substantial reduction in graduates from the 40– population. One part of the study also focuses on digital reading, i.e. on how it is developing and which sectors of the Polish readership it most involves. They conclude that although the Polish readership has succeeded in slightly reducing the internal socio-demographic threshold (i.e. with the operation of progressive internal inclusion), as a whole it is fallinginto social exclusion.

This article deals with the development of legislation on abortion in Poland which has for long been time considered one of the strictest in Europe. In this context, I focus on the recent decision of the Constitutional Tribunal which has restricted legal exceptions for providing abortions, such as developmental defects or incurable fetal diseases. I focus on the reasoning of the tribunal which relied on vagueness of the challenged provision. Despite that, I also take into account the related human rights issues such as protection of dignity and life of an unborn child. These findings are confronted with international treaties and the case law of the European Court of Human Rights which has repeatedly commented on the situation in Poland. In addition, I present not only the legal and social consequences of the further tightening of Polish abortion legislation but also their effects on the development of abortion tourism which could be, according to Czech laws, interpreted in different ways.

Tento článek se zabývá vývojem právní úpravy umělého ukončení těhotenství v Polsku, která je dlouhodobě považována za jednu z nejpřísnějších v Evropě. V této souvislosti věnuji zvýšenou pozornost nedávnému rozhodnutí tamního Ústavního tribunálu, který omezil výjimky z legálního provedení interrupce, když zrušil ustanovení zakotvující důvod spočívající ve vývojových vadách či nevyléčitelné nemoci plodu. Zaobírám se především argumentací tribunálu, která se do značné míry opírá o vágnost napadeného ustanovení a řeší lidskoprávní otázky ohledně ochrany důstojnosti a života nenarozeného dítěte. Jednotlivé poznatky konfrontuji s mezinárodními smlouvami a judikaturou Evropského soudu pro lidská práva, který se k situaci v Polsku opakovaně vyjadřoval. Kromě toho poukazuji nejen na právní a společenské důsledky zpřísňování polské interrupční legislativy, ale také na její dopady na rozvoj potratové turistiky, jejíž přípustnost lze ve vazbě na české právní předpisy interpretovat různým způsobem.

The Czech Corner (Cz. Český koutek, Ger. Böhmischer Winkel) refers to a territory found in what is now modern Poland. Despite its location and the fact that it had constituted part of Germany until 1945, the territory shares geographical, historical, ethnic and linguistic ties with the Czech lands. Until the end of the Second World War, the area, which consists of 11 villages, had predominantly been populated by ethnic Czechs. This study is the first outcome of our research into the toponymy of the Czech Corner. It seeks to collect as many names that used to be used by the Czech inhabitants of the area in question as possible, as well as to analyse such collected names in semantic and formal terms. Additionally, the objective is to investigate how these names changed over time as well as their ties with foreign language anoikonyms including, but not limited to, German anoikonyms. The aims of the research also include shedding light on how the landscape of the Czech Corner used to be perceived and interpreted by its previous inhabitants as well as exploring the ways in which the local anoikonyms are tied with the ethnic and national identity of those who created and used them. This study focuses primarily on the names of those parts of the villages in question that have their own names identifying them. A total of 40 such names have been collected including e.g. Ráj (Paradise), Ve voleti (Bird’s Crop), V krku (Bird’s Neck), V huse (Goose Belly) and Dvanáct apoštolů (Twelve Apostles).

The article looks at the history of literature in contemporary times as an auto-reflexive discipline, capable of redefining its assumptions and of recovering from a crisis. The article aims to identify the causes and consequences of the crisis as well as to describe their specific character in the Polish context. The models of literary history are varied, because they are historical, which has been shown on the example of the differing methods of literary synthesis in the course of time. The article also proposes a procedure of literary analysis devoid of a historical reflection and describes its outcome.

Claudel a střední Evropa

Claudelʼs geopolitics are torn between the founding myth of a Catholic central Europe, agitated by heresy and schism, and a disenchanted and melodramatic realism. His writing incorporates his lived experience of Bohemia in Prague, then of Poland in Germany, in order to idealize it in his spiritual poetry, critique it in his diary, and reveal its tragic impasses in his theater.

Folk etymology refers to the process of making connections between etymologically opaque words and words that despite having similar forms or meanings are etymologically different. It is a manifestation of people’s natural need to attain a clear understanding of the things that surround them, identify relationships between them, and give them an order. The first part of the study addresses folk etymology vis-à-vis folk memory. The second part focuses on folk interpretations of toponyms that were used by the inhabitants of the Czech Corner, a territory located in Kłodzko Land in what is now Poland. Arguably, the most remarkable example of these is the traditional folk interpretation of “selling Poverty to buy Need”, meaning that the financial situation of the local people was never very good. The phraseme, which contains the names of two villages on the Czech border ‒ Chudoba (EN: poverty) and Nouzín (EN: place where people are in need), is believed to be based on the common assumption that the two place names remind us of the poverty that the region faced. The reality is however that etymologically Nouzín has nothing to do with „need“. Additionally, the study deals with folk interpretations of the toponyms Pálenina, Kodrcov, Plhánek, Zámecká hora and Pec.

More than thirty years after the fall of communism, both Hungary and Poland are still trying to reinvent their national identity by understanding their pasts. As flagship museums of Viktor Orbán’s Hungary Civic Alliance (Fidesz) in Hungary and Jarosław Kaczyński’s Law and Justice Party (PiS) in Poland, the House of Terror (Terror Háza) in Budapest and the Warsaw Rising Museum (Muzeum Powstania Warszawskiego) have been used as epistemological tools in advancing the governing party’s respective memory politics. Within their portrayal of the nation’s contemporary past, these museums also endorse a particular national identity that serves the political desires of both Fidesz and PiS. This article traces how the museums present and signify the nation and how they articulate the national identity espoused by the museum. The author borrows methodological approaches from museum studies and formulates her own research protocol, which identifies three layers of national identity articulation: the presentation of the nation, the representation of the nation, and the political production of national identity.

Více než třicet let po pádu komunismu se Maďarsko i Polsko snaží skrze minulost znovu a jinak uchopit svou národní identitu. Vládnoucí strany Maďarská občanská unie (Fidesz) v Maďarsku a Právo a spravedlnost (Prawo i Sprawiedliwość – PiS) v Polsku využívají svá „vlajková muzea“ – Dům teroru (Terror Háza) v Budapešti a Muzeum Varšavského povstání (Muzeum Powstania Warszawskiego) – jako epistemologické nástroje k prosazování vlastní politiky paměti. Obě muzea zobrazují soudobé dějiny „svých“ národů a zdůrazňují typ národní identity způsobem, který slouží politickým přáním Fidesz i PiS. Autorka si v článku klade otázku, jak tyto muzejní instituce prezentují a jakým významem naplňují kategorii národa a jak artikulují národní identitu, k níž se hlásí. Využívá přitom metodologických přístupů z oblasti muzejnictví a formuluje vlastní tezi o třech vrstvách artikulace národní identity: prezentace národa, reprezentace národa a politická produkce národní identity.
