In the time of pandemic, solitude has proven to be such a prevailing issue that it has been propounded by Professor John T. Cacioppo, a social psychologist from the University of Chicago, that it should be considered a disease. The present article shows reflection on one’s attempts to escape the sense of desolation. The author interprets Dead As They Come, a short story by Ian McEwan, whose protagonist wallows in love for a clothes dummy. At first, the object of his desire, in compliance with Roland Barthes’ theses, appears to be remarkable and unique. Nevertheless, the closing part of the work documents the protagonist’s failure, as he realises that he succumbed to his own phantasm. In the final part of the article, the author makes a reference to the phenomenon of reborn dolls, as an example on nonfictional combat against solitude.

Kendo developed as an athletic contest between protagonists who compete to score Yuko-datotsu (Ippon, or valid strikes) on specified target areas (Men, Kote, Do, and Tsuki) using a bamboo sword (Shinai). Therefore, from an athletic perspective in which competitors don protective gear and strike each other, there is an inherent possibility that injury may occur should the equipment be insufficient. To enjoy participation in Kendo throughout one’s lifetime, the prevention of injury and accidents is essential, and, to this end, safety measures for Kendo equipment are extremely important

Autorkę artykułu interesuje status wybranych aspektów materii, tandeta i atrapa w twórczości Tadeusza Kantora. W szkicu podejmuje ona próbę odpowiedzi na pytanie, czym jest materia, przedmiot, jego resztka, strzęp, skrawek, które uwodzą nie tylko wyobraźnię twórczą artystów, ale niemalże zmuszają szerokie grono odbiorców sztuki i potencjalnych interpretatorów do wnikliwej analizy residuum, z którym przyszło im obcować. Autorka szkicu nawiązuje również do humanistyki nieantropocentrycznej i do koncepcji materii Brunona Schulza.

The paper focuses on the chosen aspects of matter, the shoddy and the dummy in Tadeusz Kantor’s oeuvre. It is also an attempt to answer the question of the artistic genealogy of matter, an object, its remnant, shred, or scrap, which seduce artists’ imagination, and how it is possible that shoddy objects inspire potential researchers and interpreters to analyze this peculiar residuum. The author of the article recalls Kantor’s strange figures, bio-objects, in the context of the concept of matter by Bruno Schulz and the contemporary idea of non-anthropocentrism.
