Theatre, as opposed to traditional Chinese drama, was introduced to China through the first Opium War, and the establishment of Chunliushe in Japan is regarded as the birth of the real Chinese play in 1907. Hereafter, many plays were written and performed in China and were accepted as new form plays. Thunderstorm (Leiyu), Cao Yu’s first play, was published in 1934, and became the first masterpiece of modern Chinese theatre, symbolizing its becoming mature. As the playwright admitted, it was influenced by classical Greek Plays, as well as by Henrik Ibsen. This paper reflects upon the theme of fate in Thunderstorm by Cao Yu and Hippolytus by Euripides. Although Cao Yu interpreted that he was influenced by western plays consciously or unconsciously, Thunderstorm has its own Chinese roots. Similarities and differences in the themes of fate are compared by time or history; ethnic or family aspects; and the individual or feminine. The indescribable fate of the protagonists leads to the agony they suffer inside and also effects them outside because of typical social beliefs and family life; meanwhile, it helped to bring fame to the two tragedies.

Old age is strictly connected with death. Death is not only the goal of human life. Death, as well as life, is its anthropological constant. This is essential for poetry of Viola Fischerová in its entirety, especially for last three collections Předkonec, Písečné dítě, and Domek na vinici. In Fischerováʼs poetry, old age is synonymous with death. In his shadow life is revealed as fate. For most artistic representations of life, death is depicted as transience of the moment, in the form of memories stored in the memory. Deceased friends and loved ones are called out of memory in Fischerováʼs poetry to objectify her own old age and death that is aproaching.

PL

Starość bezwarunkowo łączy się ze śmiercią, która nie jest jednak celem ludzkiego życia; śmierć, podobnie jak życie, jest jego stałą antropologiczną. I to właśnie stanowi podstawę poezji Violi Fischerovej w całej rozciągłości jej dzieła poetyckiego, przede wszystkim zaś trzech ostatnich tomików zatytułowanych: Předkonec, Písečné dítě oraz Domek na vinici. Starość jest w ujęciu Fischerovej synonimem śmierci. W jej cieniu życie objawia się jako los. Za większością artystycznych ujęć śmierć stoi w postaci gwałtowności chwili, w postaci wspomnienia zapisanego w pamięci. Poezja Fischerovej wywołuje zpamięci zmarłych przyjaciół i bliskich, aby zobiektywizować starość i zbliżającą się śmierć.

Originating in existentialism, the absurd is a response offered by the analysis of the existence in the works of Franz Kafka and Dino Buzzati. The 20th century was a century of great innovations in the field of literature, of philosophy, of the arts in general. The preoccupation for the human condition is a form of responsibility for the human destiny. The elements invading Josef K. and Giovanni Drogo’s lives (the characters in The Trial and The Desert of the Tartars) all of a sudden are more powerful than their will; therefore their tragic end is explained not by the fact that they are guilty, but by their not being able to justify their existence.

School chronicles are an important but sometimes underestimated source of information for the history of education. The difficulties with their use result from their dispersion, lack of availability and subjective nature. However, despite their subjectivity, they can provide extremely interesting information, e.g. on the biographies of individual educators. This article focuses on the war fate of school teachers in the Eastern Greater Poland. Almost all of them lost their jobs as a result of the closure of schools. Many were deported to the General Government or to forced labour in Germany. Those who stayed undertook off-an-on work or jobs that had nothing to do with the teaching profession. Despite the threat to their lives, some of them were also engaged in secret teaching. Unfortunately, there were also those who decided to collaborate with the German occupier. The research included in this article should be considered an introduction to research in this source area.

The focus on the structural and semantic role of time is one of the key features of modernist cinema in the period after the Second World War. Modernist filmmakers experiment with means of aesthetic expression, such as montage, mise-en-scène, camera work, which define the story time and consequently make time the subject of film story. Concert (1954) directed by Branko Belan initiates the modernist experiment with time in the Croatian feature film. Belan achieves a radical temporal discontinuity and the condensation of time thanks to extensive ellipses, expanded flashback, deep space composition, variable narrative perspective, variable position of the characters in the story and genre hybridity. In this way he specifies two dimensions of time – historical and personal. In Concert historical time does not always affect personal time that can be subjected to fate. By that means the director contests the communist belief in the positive impact of historical changes on the life of an individual.

This paper aims to comprehensively describe the category of tragic, which is dislodged from the mind of present western world’s human. The authoress analyses that odium’s causes, but first of all, with regard to various thinkers, she tries to bring out the essence of tragic viewpoint, often represented in a simplified way as a synonym of pessimism and martyrdom. In the article problems of the tragic are considered in context of the tragedy as dramatic species, human relation to the fate, characteristics of the tragic hero, the issue of human finiteness, rationalism’s limitations, the matter of transcendence and self-transcendence. Lastly, it is demonstrated that despite the accentuation of individual experience and coping with fate, the tragic viewpoint has the community potential. In conclusion, the openness to “tragic knowledge” is shown as a chance to reinterpret contemporary culture as well as a chance of the integral experience.

Włodzimierz Odojewski is one of the most famous émigré writers who still deals with the topic of emigration, even in his books published long after hisboth symbolic and real return to the homeland. Significant extension and dwelling on the said topic can be observed in the book …i poniosły konie […and the horses bolted]. The aim of this paper is to provide an interpretation of the short stories gathered in the volume (published in 2006) from the perspective of the biographical context, the rest of Odojewski’s writings, as well as his opinions on various aspects of exile. Such interpretation reveals a more existential and internalized dimension of emigration but also its universal meanings. Thus, emigration is considered to be a metaphor of human fate.

The main problem which is analyzed in the article is how Norwid presents the clash of two civilizations – ancient Egypt and Rome. In Norwid’s tragedy the death of culture is preceded by the death of transcendence – communities which have lost contact with the sacrum are sentencing themselves to a slow atrophy, which shall result in the collapse of civilizations. The hecatomb in Norwid’s tragedy is evoked by a series of symbols and gestures. The characters of the drama, who represent both great ancient nations, become aware by looking into the empty sky that their time is coming to the end, their life is only a part of tragic and historic fate. However, their death belongs with the Hegelian idea of the development of the spirit in history – ancient world needs to be destroyed so that Christianity could take its place.

Tradition has stopped being something accepted in the natural way at present, it is inevitably a subject of reflection. In what degree does it still define us? Should we rid ourselves of it, because it is a burden and limitation? In reference to tradition, comprehended today as something eligible and not longer forming fully human fates, the authoress considers the question of determinism as well as accidence. She looks at it from the perspective of hermeneutics, wondering if in Gadamer’s idea the tradition is really predominant and captivating, and also considering the project of Odo Maquard. The philosopher sees the mission of hermeneutics in making changes there, where nothing can be changed, i.e., in our fate, but also in restoring the homeliness of world. The final thought is the reflection on how in the light of those conceptions the religion, understood as human objection against nonsense and accidence, would be located.

The purpose of this article is to show that the Greek drama for Albert Camus was an expression of the universal experience of the cruelty of fate. Dramatic stories of Oedipus and Prometheus were for him a kind of map of the world with space selected for the man and his denial of suffering. Camus knows that in the tragedy even a man who is a „plaything of the gods”, maintains strength and honor in his defeat, and that the hero embroiled in horror stories, preserves the dignity, which adds faith and courage. This is where Camus found the connotation between the concept of fate and absurd, because absurd can’t be defeated by force of human will, a munity directed against absurd does not save the Man from misfortune.

Badacz pokazuje, że białoruska literatura odzwierciedlała zgubne rezultaty naruszeń i zaniedbań tradycyjnych wartości, i ukazywała „prawdę czasów”, dramatyzm życia w nowych warunkach, tragedię chłopów, a także proces narodzin moralnie nieskażonych „nowych ludzi”

The author of the article analyzes the ways of description of the reality of the 1930s and the process of collectivization, which are reflected in works of Belarusian writers of the period. The researcher shows that Belarusian literature reflected the pernicious results of infringement and negligence of traditional moral values, and was able to depict ”the truth of the time”, the drama of the living in a new surrounding, the tragedy of peasants. Belarusian writers showed the process of forming the class of ”new people”, who are not sophisticated in moral relations, and moral degradation.

The issue of luck in education is entangled in the strands of contradictions that can not be solved by linearity. Applications of chaos theory in a discussion on education as a path to happiness reveal some aspects of using qualitative analyzes. Therefore, aiming to overcome neopositivism and linearity in the testing procedures need to be continued and extended in the educational research related to the theory of chaos.

Dlatego zmierzając do przezwyciężenia neopozytywizmu i liniowości w procedurach badawczych, zachodzi potrzeba kontynuacji i rozszerzenia badań pedagogicznych związanych z teorią chaosu.

Polemika Ambrozjastra z Juliuszem Firmicjuszem Maternusem została przedstawiona w pięciu punktach. Pierwszy jest wprowadzeniem w polemikę. Drugi opisuje fatum w kategoriach aktu niewiary, ponieważ deprecjonuje Stwórcę i przyczynia się do wykreowania jego obrazu jako niesprawiedliwego i despotycznego. Trzeci prezentuje metodę obecną w astrologii przy budowaniu fałszywego kultu: odrzucenie pojęcia cudu oraz modlitwy. Kolejny dotyczy skutków zaburzenia racjonalności powodowanych logiką fatum. Ostatni ukazuje destrukcję struktury osoby uwikłanej w nieracjonalność.

EN

The polemic of Ambrosiaster against Julius Firmicus Maternus has been presented in five points. The first point is introduction. The second point describes fate in terms of an act of disbelief because it depreciates the Creator and contributes to portraying him as unjust and tyrannical. The third point presents a method of Astrology used to build a false worship: by rejecting the concept of miracle and prayer. Another point concerns the effects of rationality disorder induced by the logic of fate. The last point shows the destruction of the structure of a person trapped in irrationality. Ambrosiaster proves that he knows the work of Firmicus perfectly. He treats it as a serious threat to Christianity. In addition, Quaestio CXV is a testament to a growing disparity between cultural demonology and the one presented in the revealed teaching. The teaching of this author constitutes a part of a wide socio-religious context of the 4th century. It also opens up the field for discussion about the internal condition of Christianity of the tolerance period and its impact on the development of religious and social behaviours.

Eliasz z Nisibi należy do najbardziej płodnych pisarzy chrześcijańskich języka arabskiego swojej epoki. Jego siódmy mağlis z Abī l Qāsim dotyczy wyroków gwiazd i zasługuje na uwagę z powodu swej aktualności. Prezentowany przez Eliasza dyskurs można podzielić na dwie części: pierwszą mówiącą o wolności człowieka oraz drugą, w której wskazuje on na rolę ludzkiego rozumu. Te dwa elementy są głównymi argumentami w jego krytyce fatalizmu i astrologii. Jego nauczanie jest osadzone na wcześniejszym syryjskim chrześcijańskim dziedzictwie teologicznym. Jako logik niestrudzenie obnaża irracjonalny charakter wszelkich doktryn astrologicznych oraz fatalistych.

EN

Elias of Nisibis belongs to the most prolific writers of his time. His seventh mağlis with Abī l Qāsi is focused on the sentencenes of the stars and merits our attention due to its unceasing relevance. The discourse may be divided in two sections: firstly concerning human freedom, and secondly dealing with his rationality. These two factors are the main arguments in Elias’ refutation of fate and astrology. In this his teaching becomes a part of the Syriac Christian theological legacy. As a logician he exposes persistently the irrational character of any astrological and fatalistic doctrine.

The subject of the analysis in the article are various types of resignation described by Eliza Orzeszkowa in her late historical novel "Czciciel potęgi" ["The worshipper of power"] (1889) which has been barely researched. The examples of the protagonists’ existential situations and intellectually-moral choices show causes and effects (moral, practical, economic) of decisions about drifting away from the original outlook on life, dreams and beliefs. The literary text is compared to Orzeszkowa’s opinions on resignation found in her epistolary legacy.

The author of the paper propounds a holistic outlook on how French writers of the 19th century perceived the fate of Poland in the most dramatic moment of its history, when it was fighting a fierce, and almost hopeless battle for its independence, having disappeared from the map of Europe. In texts of many poets, publicists and men of letters in France one can find a unique set of motifs that not only reveal a highly consistent way of thinking with respect to the situation Poland was in at the time, but also build a parallel vision of its future, and even hold a belief that Poland was to play a special role among European countries. In this paper the author identifies and discusses six such motifs.
