Recent literature on deverbal nominalisations has focused on the aspectual differences between nominal events expressed by the derivational morphology of the noun as well as the problems regarding their interpretation in natural language examples extracted from text corpora (Ehrich and Rapp 2000; Borer 2005; Spranger and Heid 2007; Alexiadou et al. 2009; Heinold 2010). It seems that the close syntactic environment of such event-NPs (like modifiers or embedding verbal constructions) are quite reliable as indicators for their aspectual properties. It is, however, uncertain in how far such contexts as well as the tense and aspect of the sentence interact with the aspectual information within the nominals themselves. This paper shortly introduces the lexical and morphological units in NPs and VPs which carry aspectual information. I present English, German and French data which show that in sentences where nominal and verbal event information interact different levels of aspect have to be kept apart in order to do justice to the subtle semantic differences of complex event situations.

This paper stems from a broader research project entitled Analog-based Modelling of Meaning Representations in English (Skrzypczak 2006), and aims to present grammatical aspect and lexical aspect as two modes of encoding the temporal profiles within the conceptualisation of processes (terminologically, in Langackerian sense, imperfective and perfective processes, otherwise, variously labelled as stative and dynamic verbs, i. e. states vs. discrete ‘unitary’ events and non-discrete ‘unbounded’ processes).It is assumed that aspect in both cases - as a process-profiling category - is analogous to the profiling of things and atemporal relations (in the sense of Langacker 1987, 1990, 2000), given the maximisation of the temporal domain in the characterisation of processes (perfective and imperfective, hence: dynamic and stative), and minimalisation of the temporal domain during the conceptualisation of things (conceptually independent entities) and atemporal relations (conceptually dependent atemporal configurations). The analogy between nouns and verbs in terms of ‘granularity’ has been so far variously addressed by Langacker (1990), Jackendoff (1991) and Talmy (2001), and also constitutes the core assumption in my research on topological modelling.

EN
This paper describes the semantics of Czech verbs of motion. It examines predictions of the event-based accounts of plurality in the verbal domain (Krifka 1992; Kratzer 2005; van Geenhoven 2004) and applies it to Czech data. It connects morphological processes with the cumulativity and generic operators in semantics.

Problematyka przygotowanego opracowania dotyczy sposobu promowania danego miejsca/obszaru przez wykorzystanie różnego rodzaju eventów jako atrakcyjnej destynacji turystyki biznesowej. W artykule zaprezentowano działania (w zakresie organizacji i udziału w różnego rodzaju spotkaniach) prowadzone przez Gdańsk Convention Bureau (GCB) w aspekcie promocji województwa pomorskiego jako miejsca spotkań. Celem rozważań jest wskazanie eventu jako narzędzia marketingu terytorialnego oraz identyfikacja i charakterystyka rodzajów spotkań, które mają właściwości promocyjne dla miejsc starających się o wizerunek destynacji turystyki biznesowej (na przykładzie działalności Gdańsk Convention Bureau w latach 2009-2013).Do części teoretycznej opracowania wykorzystano przede wszystkim metodę badawczą desk researchw postaci analizy literatury przedmiotu, doniesień branżowych oraz eksploracji portalu internetowego Gdańsk Convention Bureau, natomiast do części empirycznej – wyniki wywiadu bezpo-średniego nieustrukturowanego z przedstawicielem GCB.

The issues of the prepared study concerns the way of promoting a given place/area through the use of various events as an attractive business tourism destination. In their article, the authors presented the activities (as regards organisation and participation in various meetings) carried out by the Gdansk Convention Bureau (GCB) in the aspect of promotion of Pomeranian Province as a venue for meetings.An aim of considerations is to indicate an event as a tool of territorial marketing as well as to identify and characterise the types of meetings which have promotional properties for the places seeking for the business tourism destination image (on the example of activities carried out by the Gdansk Convention Bureau in 2009-2013). For the theoretical part of the study, the authors used, first of all, the desk research in the form of review of the subject literature, business coverage and exploration of the Internet portal of the Gdansk Convention Bureau, whereas for the empirical part – results of a face-to-face unstructured interview with a GCB representative.

Events organized in cities are perceived as an important stimulus of tourism development. This refers especially to post-industrial cities, having problems with, among others, a negative image, which hinders them from staying competitive in the market. The aim of the paper is to evaluate the level to which selected post-industrial cities located in Southern Poland use events to support their development in the field of tourism. The author made a literature review to show the functions that cultural, sports, and business events can fulfil in the cities they are organized in. What is more, ways of measuring the impact of the events on achieving the aims included in the cities development strategies were indicated. The development strategies of post-industrial cities were analysed to draw conclusions concerning the aim of the article.

How To Get Rid of Closure

38%
EN
Sophie Gibb has recently invented a very interesting strategy against Kim’s causal exclusion argument. This strategy adopts the powers theory of causation and an interpretation of mental causation in terms of double prevention. Gibb’s strategy results both in invalidating the principle of the causal closure of the physical domain in most of its formulations and in disarming the argument in question. In my paper, I present a general procedure for the opponents of reductive physicalism which enables them to grapple successfully with the mentioned principle. I also argue that although it could be possible to adopt Gibb’s strategy as a part of this procedure, there is a simpler one to obtain a similar outcome. This strategy is mainly based on Uwe Meixner’s causal argument against physicalism and it leads to the conclusion that if one accepts the principle of sufficient cause (i.e. the principle of sufficient reason in its causal variant), then one should reject the principle of causal closure in the light of some empirical data. This alternative proposal is more attractive than Gibb’s solution, since it is independent of any conception of causation, does not make any distinction between causal relevance and causal efficacy, and does not refer to the notion of double prevention.

Celem artykułu jest identyfikacja kluczowych przesłanek dla uznania wydarzeń biznesowych jako atrakcyjnych produktów współczesnych obiektów sportowych. Dla osiągnięcia celu pracy zastosowano metody analizy i syntezy, głównie z wykorzystaniem źródeł wtórnych, z dostępnych raportów instytucji krajowych i zagranicznych oraz informacji zawartych w ofertach wybranych stadionów. Badania autora wskazują na kilka czynników przemawiających za dużym znaczeniem wydarzeń biznesowych jako produktów uzupełniających ofertę współczesnych stadionów i oddziałujących na różne aspekty funkcjonowania oraz rozwoju tych obiektów i regionu. Badanie i wnioskowanie koncentruje się na stosunkowo nowych, wielkich, znanych i wielofunkcyjnych obiektach sportowych. Tematyka zastosowania wydarzeń biznesowych w różnych obiektach spotkań w Polsce jest przedmiotem wielu publikacji, jednak próby pokazywania ich jako uzupełniającego produktu stadionów są jeszcze rzadko spotykane i wymagają ich dalszych badań. Artykuł ma charakter przeglądowy, a zarazem prezentuje pewną koncepcje teoretyczną możliwości rozwoju produktu współczesnych stadionów.

The aim of the article is to identify key premises to recognize business events as attractive products of contemporary sports stadiums. To achieve this goal, the autor used methods of analysis and synthesis, facilitating mainly secondary sources, available reports from national and foreign institutions, as well as the information available on offer of chosen stadiums. The author’s research points to a few factors in favor of the significance of business events as products supplementing the stadiums’ offer, and influencing various operational and developmental aspects of these facilities and their regions. The research and reasoning is concentrated on relatively new, large, well-known, and multifunctional sports facilities. The topic of using business events in various meeting spots in Poland is the subject of many publications, but the attempts to show them as stadiums’ supplementary products are still rarely seen and require further research. The article is a survey in nature, at the same time presenting a certain theoretical concept of the ability of developing the product of contemporary stadiums.

In the field of comics studies, which evolved from a mere topic area into a burgeoning field of inquiry at the turn of 1980s and 1990s, the dialogue about meaning in comics was initiated by practicing cartoonists, who proposed new lines of research and introduced serviceable terminology which remains in use even today. These early contributions may have provided a solid basis for the investigation of meaning in comics, but they were repeatedly criticized for their lack of an academic orientation prerequisite for serious-minded comics scholarship. With the onset of the new millennium, it was linguistic theory that came to be called upon with increasing frequency to provide the missing orientation. Recent observers point out that for over a decade linguistics in general, and cognitive linguistics in particular, has informed much of the most insightful comics research. This paper is an attempt to contribute to the intersection of cognitive linguistics and comics scholarship by demonstrating that a number of conceptual metaphors whose linguistic manifestations have been studied in considerable detail facilitate, either separately or jointly, the conceptualization of the main formal unit of comics: the so-called panel. It appears that depending on what individual panels are taken to refer to (events, states, periods of time, visual fields, portions of the world of the story), they are metaphorized in different ways (as objects, containers, windows onto the world of the story), in accordance with a central tenet of conceptual metaphor theory whereby metaphors highlight some aspects of the metaphorized concept and simultaneously hide others. On the one hand, this paper adds to the growing body of research demonstrating that metaphor is a conceptual mechanism which transcends language; on the other, it adds to the dialogue about how comics achieve meaning by discussing the metaphorical underpinnings of the panel, and by framing this discussion in terms of cognitive linguistics, a scholarly tradition with which comics studies have successfully intersected.

The study that was conducted from September 2022 to April 2023 demonstrates how perceptions of seemingly stable times change in times of crisis (war in Ukraine, repressions, dictatorship, political censorship, etc.). The methodology used in the study allows us to record the reinterpretation of memorable dates and the emergence of new events significant for social media users. The data analysis allows us to form a post facto order of significant events of the end of August 2022 – April 2023. I have conditionally called this order of events a “mental calendar”. The research was aimed at a certain social group of Russian society – intellectuals, who play an important role in the public and media space. The ability to generate narratives, descriptive strategies and interpretive frameworks suggests that the research will allow for a cross-sectional analysis of the perceptions of the entire Russian society. It was fundamental to observe the Russian segment of social networks, those who did not leave and remained in Russia, because this reaction from within demonstrates the plurality of opinions, different survival strategies, etc. This approach yielded important results for understanding what was happening inside the aggressor country, but at the same time had a number of limitations, primarily in the disclosure of the respondents' personal data.

In this paper, I shall examine the complements of perception verbs in Old English involving a noun phrase and a present participle. What kind of perception is described by these structures? Do they evoke the perception of an event, or that of an entity? It will be shown here that there are good reasons to believe that an NP + present participle sequence could function as the equivalent of the traditional “AcI” construction when used with perception verbs. I shall also attempt to determine to what extent the syntax of this construction matches the semantics: is the internal argument of the perception verb the NP alone, or some kind of combination of the NP and the participle? This question is particularly interesting in the light of Declerck’s (1982) remarks on participle perception verb complements in modern English. Finally, I shall take a look at morphological parametres: sometimes the participle inflects to agree with the NP, whereas on other occasions it does not. What might the implications of this kind of variation be?

Constructing catalogue of temporal situationsThe paper is aiming to create a common basis for description, comparing, and analysis natural languages. As a subject of comparison we have chosen temporal structures of some languages. For such a choice there exists a perfect tool, describing basic temporal phenomena, namely an ordering of states and events in time, certainty and uncertainty, independency of histories of separate objects, necessity and possibility. This tool is supported by the Petri nets formalism, which seems to be well suited for expressing the above mentioned phenomena. Petri nets are built form three primitive notions: of states, of events that begin or end the states, and so-called flow relation indicating succession of states and events. This simple constituents give rise to many possibilities of representing temporal phenomena; it turns out that such representations are sufficient for many (clearly, not necessarily all) temporal situations appearing in natural languages.In description formalisms used till now there is no possibility of expressing such reality phenomena as temporal dependencies in compound statement, or combination of temporality and modality. Moreover, using these formalisms one cannot distinguish between two different sources of uncertainty of the speaker while describing the reality: one, due to the lack of knowledge of the speaker what is going on in outside world, the second, due to objective impossibility of foreseen ways in which some conflict situations will be (or already have been) resolved. Petri net formalism seems to be perfectly suited for such differentiations.There are two main description principles that encompassed this paper. First, that assigns meaning to names of grammatical structures in different languages may lead to misunderstanding. Two grammatical structures with apparently close names may describe different reality. Additionally, some grammatical terms used in one language may be absent and not understandable in the other. It leads to assign meanings to situations, rather than to linguistic forms used for their expression. The second principle is limit the discussed issues to such a piece of reality that can be possible for precise description. The third is to avoid introducing such information to the described reality that is not explicitly mentioned by linguistic means. The authors try to following these principles in the present paper.The paper is organized as follows. First, some samples of situations related to present tense are given together with examples of their expressions in four languages: English, (as a reference language) and three Slavic languages, representing South slavonic languages (Bulgarian), West slavonic languages (Polish), and East slavonic languages (Russian). Within the same framework the next parts of the paper are constructed, supplying samples of using Past tenses and, finally, future tenses and modalities.The formal tools for description purposes are introduced stepwise, according to needs caused be the described reality. There are mainly Petri nets, equipped additionally with inscriptions or labeling in order to keep proper assignations of description units to described objects.
