The work presents an interpretation of Wawrzyniec Żuławski’s Wędrówki alpejskie [Wandering in the Alps], a book which is regarded as an example of classic mountain literature, republished several times. The author focuses her reflections on the description of the Alps, noticing in it three key ways of presenting this mountain range: as “a park of parks”, a playground and a neighbourhood. The analysis of Wawrzyniec Żuławski’s exceptional style unravels the author’s attempts to capture in words “the beauty of mountain experiences.” However, while reading Wędrówki alpejskie, what comes to the foreground is the book’s factual dimension. In his accounts of the expeditions from the 1930s and 1940s, a passionate mountaineer and an artist (a writer and a composer) reports on the changes in civilisation which took place in the area of the most important (in cultural terms) European mountain range as a result of the process of park creation. Moreover, Żuławski depicts in his notes significant cultural transformations in the consciousness of people coming to mountain national parks and in their attitude to the mountainous landscape. On the one hand, what seems to be striking in the accounts which are the subject of our interpretation are the tensions between the ideals of protecting “wild” nature and the development of mass tourism. On the other hand, what is particularly thought-provoking is the sense of melancholy, caused by the awareness of the old “romantic” alpinism being displaced by a sport model, aimed not at “metaphysics of the mountain”, but at achievements and records.

The article is devoted to the non-fiction novel by Jalu Kurek Mount Everest 1924 published in 1933. We argue against the point of view expressed by critics who claimed that this book has to be seen only as a kind of “intermezzo” in the writer’s career. The book’s various aspects are connected with contemporary market trends, formal experiments, specific topics (the passion for climbing and the position taken in the discussion about the future of Alpinism) and ideological contexts (the fundamental aporias of modernism: faith in progress and in the post-Nietzschean new man versus existential anxiety of an attentive observer of the world). All this makes it an important element of the artistic journey of this Cracovian poet and prose writer.

issue 3: Teologia moralna

PL
Autor omawia problem etycznego wymiaru ryzyka, które towarzyszy większości dyscyplin sportowych. Ich uprawianie tylko wyjątkowo stwarza poważne problemy moralne. Z reguły stają się one środkiem służącym zdrowiu fizycznemu i duchowemu człowieka. Praktykowanie sportów ekstremalnych i sportów wysokiego ryzyka może służyć rozwojowi duchowemu i moralnemu człowieka. Musi ono jednak spełnić warunki ogólnego i specjalistycznego bezpieczeństwa oraz musi mu towarzyszyć gotowość rezygnacji z dalszej wspinaczki, kiedy realne zagrożenie przekracza roztropnie ocenione możliwości himalaisty.
EN
The author discusses the problem of the ethical dimension of risk that accompanies most of sports disciplines. Their practicing only exceptionally creates serious moral problems. As a rule, they become a means for human physical and spiritual health. Practicing extreme sports and high-risk sports can serve the spiritual and moral development of man. However, it must meet the requirements of general and specialist security and must be accompanied by readiness to resign from further climbing, when the real threat exceeds the prudently assessed climber's capabilities.

vol. 27: IZOLACJA I KOMUNIKACJA – ROZWAŻANIA NAD FORMAMI KOMUNIKACJI LITERACKIEJ I KULTUROWEJ
134-153
EN
The article is concerned with the writings of the Polish mountaineer, Tadeusz Piotrowski. The author considers the relationship between the experiences of vertical space, plot and subjectivity. He analyses Piotrowski’s writing, in an attempt at identifying characteristic elements of the climber’s discourse in the context of sincerity and autobiographical narrative. Tadeusz Piotrowski’s story is defined by modernity, accumulating in ‘the Self ’ the subsequent paradoxes resulting from contradictions within key concepts of truth, authenticity and sincerity. The climber’s discourse tries to reconcile the desire to repeat the vertical movement within textual representation, and the idiomatic expression of the subject. The text exposes the paradoxical status of the autobiography situated beyond truth and falsehood, while, at the same time, remaining the most effective tool for communicating mountaineering experiences.
