The contribution deals with the conception of language history as a discipline of the diachronic linguistics and also with the contents of the synthetical works on language history, the latter of which are the major task of language history. In the light of more recent works on the development of the Czech language the author gives a short description of the Polish discussion about the contents of the language history and the synthetical language history works during the last 40 years. Some fundamental postulates formulated in this debate might be useful also for the next synthetical work on Czech language history.

Among valuable documents from the Rozmberk and Svamberk archives, which are deposited in the Historica collection of the regional archive in Trebon, several hundred manuscript newspapers and news items from the 16th century have been preserved. This extensive collection contains a unique report on the Turkish policy towards the Polish-Lithuanian state. It was written by an unknown Polish reporter on his return journey from Constantinople in 1576. He wanted to warn his patron, probably a senator, against the schemes of the Ottoman government about which he had heard from spies on the Sultan's court. He accompanied his information by numerous commentaries. Thus his report provides a peek into the 16th century Polish noblemen's lives and portraits the image of the Turks in their minds. Conversely, citations by the Viziers, their reporters and advisors provide information about the way the Rzeczpospolita was regarded by foreigners. The newspaper opens with plots concerning the Black Sea region, where the Turks aspired to prevent further Cossacks' interventions. However, the Grand Vizier's hunger to pillage or conquer the Polish-Lithuanian state seemed to be much more important. The reporter dealt with this topic in the second, more extensive part of his report. With great apprehension he informed on a counsel between the Grand Vizier and an unknown Frenchman, who willingly offered his intelligence on the Polish-Lithuanian state and instigated the Turks to attack it.

This paper presents the lesser-known aspects of Cubism in Poland in the field of both aesthetic practice and theory, staying in the shadow of the mainstream documented in a tendentious way in the canonical art history. This way it contributes to the revision of the narrow view of the artistic processes and to the remapping of the traces of cultural exchange and transformation of aesthetic and ideological patterns in a horizontal perspective between the “European margins”. As an echo of these simplifications, the national and as a consequence also the international historiography of art mostly omits the Cubist tendencies, not only in the oeuvre of Polish artistic formations apart from Cracow, but also in the aesthetic practice of the representatives of groups, which later became well known as constructivist ones, such as Katarzyna Kobro, Władysław Strzemiński or Henryk Berlewi. On the other hand, it has been often forgotten, that in the local context, due to the relatively late adaptation of Cubism into artistic praxis, it is nearly not documented in the pure form. Instead of that, one can speak about the primarily non-antagonist coexistence of the two hybrids of the “new art” – the Cubo-Expressionist and the Futuro-Dadaist one.

There is an observation of a deepening segmentation of the high-circulation polish magazine market. The key players, that is companies with German capital: H. Bauer, Axel Springer Poland and Burda Media Poland inextricably associated with offers addressed to female consumers, systematically invested in periodicals patronized by men. The article attempts to both define the men's press and indicate features that are common for this diversified segment of the media. The author elaborates the key titles, outlining their contents, the issues addressed and the turnover from sales. The survey conducted clearly revealed that the leaders in the computer and motoring press in the years 1995-2010 were, in turns, periodicals of the two companies with German capital, namely H. Bauer and Axel Springer.

The purpose of this article is to highlight the importance of domestic and foreign investments in the Polish market and analysis of their level in the context of the development of the Polish economy. Article verifies the hypothesis that the domestic investments and inflow of foreign direct investments have a positive impact on the development of the Polish economy. It seems that regardless of the views and studies, there are more benefi ts from the infl ow of foreign investments into Poland by their positive impact on the competitiveness of the Polish economy. However, any of their restrictions refl ect negatively on the economic growth of the country. Both domestic investments and foreign direct investments are the measure of the competitiveness of the economy. Apart from any threat, foreign capital is an opportunity for the development of the Polish economy. Poland trying to decrease disparities in relation to the developed countries should strive for improve the investment climate in order to not only attracts foreign capital, but also to create optimal conditions for the development of domestic investments and thereby stimulate economic growth.

The author in her article deals with the problem of modern dilemmas and ethica problems appearing in Polish medicine, showing its speciﬁcity against the background of other European countries. Among them, the biggest controversies are aroused by issues like: conscience clause, euthanasia, abortion, “testament of life” and in vitro proceedings. The author presents the most important attitudes, their sources and determinants (cultural, social, legal, ﬁnancial, ideological, and religious). She also points out that essential inﬂuence on creating bioethical solutions belongs to doctors themselves as they have a signiﬁcant autonomy in the area of moral choices. The author also emphasizes that many solutions to problems in the scope of bioethics, formalized in legal records and ethical codes, and which are obligatory in Poland, do not constitute optimal solutions for the whole or at least majority of the society. Hence, there are still numerous oﬀers to regulate it alternatively. What is important, many of them constitute an attempt referring to modern current European legislation and even a direct attempt at transferring it to the underground. In the face of growing social and economic development of Poland and closer cooperation with European countries, their sanctioning seems to be only a matter of time today, and at same time a serious challenge requiring settling a kind of consensus between requirements of Polish society and the European Union.

The paper presents an overview of recent Polish stained glass developments rather than a certain category of artists and works of well-known stained glass studios, which would certainly imply a subjective evaluation and a falsification of the actual state. The quality and overall image of this field of art are not determined only by individual artistic achievements, especially when they constitute a definite minority. Analysis of the latest Polish stained glass art should include its specificity and dissimilarity in relation to the parallel foreign achievements. These differences relate primarily to technological issues. A wide range of accomplishments, great formal variety, scope and scale as well as apparently continued development which characterize Polish stained glass give it a high place in European art.

The article is the first part of a larger project which focuses on the issues concerning the establishment and the first period of activity of Central National Committee until the end of 1914. It attempts to answer the question whether there were any prospects to reach agreement between different political parties which not only had dissimilar political and social views, diverse conceptions of how to regain independence of the Polish state, but also different attitudes towards members of other nationalities. The article discusses an evolution of viewpoints and opinions of the main political parties active in Galicia just before the outbreak of the First World War as regards the idea of the rebirth of the Polish state.

Carnival stands not only for the festive time set by the religious calendar, but also for all games and shows which are part of the urban pop culture. Theoretical reflection on carnivalisation, i.e. a specific model of participation in culture, was initiated by Mikhail Bakhtin. The process of progressive carnivalisation of the urban space is associated with the development of spectator folklorism on the one hand and desementisation of the folk rituals on the other, i.e. with the expansion of festive events, which create common festive activity. The author brings up examples of carnivalisation of the public space in Polish towns from the middle ages until the contemporary times when the said process was joined by local government institutions, cultural institutions and foundations, whose intention is to expose the emotional bonds with the promoted values among the participants of a common, open, street “immediate theatre”.

Ever since the author took an interest in the Stone Age he was aware that modern research on the Paleolithic and Mesolithic in Poland is linked with Maria Chmielewska and her husband Waldemar. Few of today's researchers are conscious of the gap that existed at the time in research on the Paleolithic. In the early 1950s there were only four people working in the field: Stefan Krukowski, Ludwik Sawicki, Maria and Waldemar who embarked on their first fieldwork on a Mesolithic site in Konin in 1950. Maria's first publication concerning the Mesolithic (1954) was a monograph of a Late Mesolithic grave in Janislawice near Skierniewice. It is still considered a milestone of research on the Mesolithic in Poland. It was also a signal that here was a researcher worth taking note of. In 1955 Maria and her husband undertook the exploration of a dune site at Witów near Leczyca. This breakthrough work in European archaeology of the late Stone Age, combining comprehensive archaeological excavations and paleoenvironmental research on dunes and connected peat bogs, lasted through 1963. For the first time on a site in the European Plain, perfect microstratigraphic, geomorphological and palynological analyses, added to radiocarbon dating, provided data for a chronological and environmental positioning of cultural units from the end of the Ice Age and the beginning of the Holocene in Poland. The Terminal Paleolithic remained a focus of Maria Chmielewska's research for many years despite serious eyesight problems. She stands behind the initiation of excavations at Cichmiana (1952), one of the most interesting sites on the European Plain, as well as Ruska Skala (1952-1954) and Katarzynów (1960-1962). A monograph (which was at the same time her habilitation thesis): 'The Late Palaeolithic in the Warsaw-Berlin ice-marginal streamway' (Wroclaw-Warszawa-Kraków-Gdansk 1978), a book whose impact on studies of the Stone Age in Poland cannot be exaggerated. Most of her long involvement in scientific research Maria Chmielewska spent in the Institute of the History of Material Culture (from 1992 the Institute of Archaeology and Ethnology) of the Polish Academy of Sciences, where she worked from 1956 until the end of 1990. In 1963-1964 we both excavated at Arkin in northern Sudan within the framework of the Combined Prehistoric Expedition and the Nubian Salvage Campaign of UNESCO and in 1971 and 1972 during excavations for the chocolate flint mining research program. It was for this program that Marysia directed the explorations of an Early Bronze Age mining site at Polany near Wierzbica. Her retirement in 1990 did not severe her ties with the Institute. She has remained active, producing jointly with Hanna Wieckowska a hugely important publication of the final results of excavations on a Mesolithic site at Luta in the western Polesie region (H. Wieckowska, M. Chmielewska, The Mesolithic settlement in the Luta microregion, Lublin voivodeship. Materials, Warszawa 2007). Fig. 1.

The author, developing his theory of hegemony, interprets legał and real actions taken by the Secretaries of the Polish United Workers' Party: Bierut, Gomułka, Gierek, General Jaruzelski, and by the Party itself. According to the constitutional and legał analysis, the Polish communist Secretaries did not often obey the law which was valid at the time. There are many examples of such actions: from illegal judicial processes „on demand of the authority", through criminal sanctions as well as civic and real restrictions for members of the political opposition, to unofficial officials' appointments or political directives/unofficial law of the Party, and marginalization of the due constitutional powers. The most controversial case of the realization of the hegemony law by the Party seems to be the enforcement of the martial law by General Jaruzelski in December 1981.

The article offers an analysis of the volume of financial support absorbed by agricultural holdings in Poland against the background of changes in the level of farming during the country’s EU membership (the years 2004–2009). The transfer of EUR 21 billion of assistance contributed to the development of Polish farming to a limited extent only. This was largely due to the structure of the funds being unfavourable from the point of view of the development of agriculture, in particular because of a large proportion of passive forms of EU support (area payments). Of no little importance was also the fact that some of the operational measures were intended to improve the natural environment and put farms on a non-agricultural development path rather than bring about an increase in the production level and competitiveness of agriculture.

(Title in Polish - 'Polska polityka zagraniczna wobec rozbieznosci w stosunkach transatlantyckich na tle konfliktów w bylej Jugosławii'). The conflicts in the former Yugoslavia provided a backdrop to numerous controversies between the Americans and their European allies. When, in the first half of the 1990s, divergences emerged, i.a. regarding the recognition of the independence of the former Yugoslavian republics and disparate concepts as to how the conflict in Bosnia and Herzegovina might be headed off, Polish diplomacy avoided becoming involved in the solving of these problems. However, when a position had to be taken, it supported, as a rule, the policy of the EU member countries (e.g., regarding the recognition of Slovenia and Croatia). In the twilight of the 20th century, it was the conflict in Kosovo which became a source of divergent opinions in the trans-Atlantic community. A clear difference of standpoint emerged between the US and some of the European allies, in particular with a view to the legitimacy of NATO's operations in the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, the carrying out of air raids and the possible involvement of the land forces in military operations. Changing its hitherto strategy, the Polish diplomacy first strongly supported the US actions, and, second, actively participated in the international efforts aimed at solving the Kosovo conflict. The Polish government was aware of the emerging divergences in trans-Atlantic relations. Their improvement was highly desirable, but it was not the focal point of attention. Being aware of the limited potential of improvement and of the geo-political situation, efforts were aimed mostly at ensuring the country's long-term security by joining NATO and the EU and it was these objectives which were accorded priority in the Republic of Poland's foreign policy. When facing those divergences in the trans-Atlantic relations which had as their backdrop the conflict in the former Yugoslavia, the strategy of Polish diplomacy was also subordinated to these objectives.

The geographical work of A l - I d r i s i, 'Nuzhat al-mushtaq fi khtiraq al-afaq', written for King Roger II, is well known, but its second treaty, the 'Uns al-muhadj wa-rawd al-furadj', it only came under scrutiny twenty years ago. A l - I d r i s i made the plan of the 'Uns' like that of the 'Nuzhat'. The world is divided into climates, with each climate being divided again into ten sections. The study of some parts of the 'Uns' shows that it is not a simple summary of the 'Nuzhat', but a rewriting with some additions, especially for Africa and the Meditteranean Europe. Poland and the Central Europe is situated in the third section of the sixth climate. But in this case, the text and the map are composed of a geographical material extracted from the 'Nuzhat', without real new information.

The debate on the adoption of the Euro and accession to the so-called Euroland has intensified recently in Poland, under the influence of the global financial crisis and the threat of recession hanging over the country. It has rapidly transpired that this issue has not only its economic, but also its political and social dimension. Obviously, the issue is neither simple nor easy, because a national currency is one of the components of national identity and attributes of the state's sovereignty. This is why joining the Eurozone generates objections of the part of the political milieu and society, as exemplified by the 16 states, who have already taken this step. It transpires, however, that it is, in fact, a result of a lack of knowledge, or disinformation, rather than genuine threats related to adoption of the Euro. This article attempts to sketch both the Polish route to the Euro, and the political and socio-economic consequences of Poland's adoption of the Union's currency. The author demonstrates here that this route was entered with Poland's accession to the European Union and that joining the Eurozone is inevitable and will bring about more positives than negatives. The main thesis of the article is the assertion that the adoption of the Euro is in Poland's strategic interest, as it will provide a stimulus to continue structural changes in the national economy, contributing by the same to the economic growth and reduction of unemployment. Moreover, thanks to the Euro's adoption, Poland's international credibility, as well as her its position in both the European Union and the world will be enhanced.

The article elaborates the phenomenon of Sławomir Rawicz the author of an only book entitled The long Walk. The book from the 13th of April 1956, written in English and issued by the Constable Publishers in London was a bestseller, amply highlighted in the British, American and other media. The polish emigration press, apart from the editorial of the London "Polish Daily and Soldier's Daily", hardly took notice of the author's success. There were reviews in the "White Eagle" and the Paris "Culture". By the year 2007 these memories had lived to see 43 publications in 25 languages all over the world. It must be acknowledged that the polish edition of The long Walk was issued in London by the Unicom Publishers in 1993. It is the narration of the, improbably lasting for several months, escape of seven men from the soviet concentration camp in the proximity of the Arctic circle who, through the Tibet, the Gobi desert and the Himalay, got to India in March 1942. The author after the Second World War settled in Great Britain. In the year 2009 there was a scandal when the deceased Rawicz (since the year 2004) was charged with the usurpation of the story by the Polish Armed Forces veteran Witold Gliński. It is worth pondering over why this issue was brought to light only after the death of Sławomir Rawicz but then, the author of The long Walk "could no longer defend himself This unusual escape, transcending the limits of imagination, was not until 2010 that it was film-adapted by the famous Australian Peter Weir, the creator of such productions as Picnic under the Hanging Rock and the Dead Poets Society. The film had its premiere in Poland on the 8th of April 2011.

Soviet policy in relation to neighboring countries, especially Poland and Romania, inclined both governments to develop military cooperation and prepare themselves for eventual Bolshevik aggression. Warsaw and Bucharest signed a number of political and military conventions, in this way protecting their eastern frontiers. Military conventions from 1921 and 1922 created the foundations of Polish-Romanian cooperation for the whole interwar period. they were supplemented by seven operational studies, devised at the time of special planning conferences held in Warsaw and Bucharest so that the ensuing pacts were of a merely corrective nature. The special studies foresaw assorted forms of attack launched by Bolshevik Russia against Poland or Romania. Prepared by the general staffs of the two countries, they defined the potential and tasks of both armies in case of Soviet aggression, and were treated as part of a military alliance. the enormity of the work accomplished by both states in the discussed period is evidenced by the number of examined instances of Red Army onslaughts and thus the tactics of the allied armies. Observing the political events of the interwar necessary and proved beneficial for both countries.
