The layering that is present in many OO designs is not accounted for in current interpretations of invariants. We propose to make layers explicit in specifications and introduce a new interpretation of invariants that exploits these layers. Furthermore, we present a sound, modular technique to statically verify that programs satisfy the new interpretation.
This review of Tomasz Szymon Markiewka’s book, entitled Interpretation Argument in Literary Studies. Analysis of Selected Theoretical Conceptions of 20th Century, focuses on reconstruction of its main theses, as well as on evaluate their methodological aspects.

The paper is an attempt to interpret the work of Krystyna Miłobędzka, one of the most celebrated contemporary Polish poets, in terms suggested by the ideas of the community of readers as well as the institution of the poetry reading understood as a phenomenological/communal event. The analysis is informed by the recently published volume znikam jestem [I disappear I exist], a record of four poetry readings given by Miłobędzka between 2000 and 2010.

In his reflection on watching instead of interpreting as a way of getting to know a film, the author wishes to focus on two issues: (i) one related to the sensuous experience of the cinema, the pleasure of the act of watching itself (in accordance with the formula “seeing as only seeing”), and supported by the long tradition of the aesthetic thought (Baumgarten, Dewey, Shusterman, Gadamer, Merleau-Ponty), and (ii) one connected with film thinking – inspired by the thesis of Rudolf Arnheim: “The visual perception is visual thinking”. Thus, the concept of watching instead of interpreting raises the status of the pre-intellectual and sensuous way of receiving a film work, which does not act against the interpretation (as Susan Sontag claimed), but constitutes its alternative or complementary version.
The Polish version of the article was published in “Roczniki Humanistyczne”, vol. 59 (2011), issue 1 The article is a suggestion for an interpretation of Czesław Miłosz’s poem Biel (Whiteness) (from the volume Miasto bez imienia (City Without a Name). The accepted methodology of interpretation tries to find and define the zone of mediation between the ideal of comprehensive reading, striving after integrating and structuralizing the global meaning of the work, and the suggestions coming from post-structuralist philosophy of reading texts. The author’s own interpretation of the poem has been taken into consideration; a comparative reading of Biel has been suggested as well as of a Miłosz’s later poem Powrót do Krakowa w roku 1880 (Return to Krakow in 1880). This comparison is supposed to serve showing different strategies of creating texts and meanings used by the author of Nieobjęta ziemia (Unattainable Earth). At the same time, at the background, a commentary to Miłosz’s poem becomes an opportunity to construct a meta-interpretative reflection. Looking at his own reading the author formulates remarks concerning the process of reading and comprehending, he introduces and analyzes the metaphor of “interpretation as feeling settled.”
The article is an attempt of analysis and interpretation of the “Young Poland“ comedy written by Włodzimierz Perzyński in psychopathological or psychoanalytical perspective. The author draws reader’s attention to artistic achievements of Włodzimierz Perzyński who was a Polish novelist, comedy writer, columnist and poet, satirist and ironist and he died eighty years ago. The article is informally built out of two parts: Michel Foucault’s cultural criticism is a context of the first part, in the second one the author uses � � � � � � �general psychoanalytical theories of � � Sigmund Freud and Karen Horney. A neurotic personality, neurotic disturbances in the relations between people and activities of individuals in the different social situations are an object of analysis and interpretation. The author discussing one of the most famous Perzyński’s comedies tries to show that the Polish writer’s plays are interesting and opening a lot of perspectives of interpretation.
The purpose of this paper is to present and evaluate the studies in Plato’s Cratylus performed by Witold Stefański, which resulted in several articles concerning this dialogue and its translation into Polish. While the interpretation of this dialogue offered by the author may be called into question, the dialogue’s translation remains undoubtedly an excellent piece of work.
From time to time we ask ourselves about the status of our discipline. Th e answers to the questions regarding the methodology of history, the epistemology of history, the theory of history depend on the theoretical presuppositions of the researcher. Th e expectation that there is a single paradigm of research in the history of historiography requires the recognition and consent that there is one single mode of refl ecting on history. In this article, I argue that the history of historiography can be understood as history of historical thinking in all its contexts.

Henry James’s The Turn of the Screw poses an interpretative challenge to its researchers, readers, and translators. The unique character of the novelette, which is surrounded by the aura of the uncanny, is closely related to the ambiguous narrative and linguistic devices used by the author. Major interpretations of the text followed Gothic, Freudian, and metanarrative approaches. The paper sets out to investigate the extent to which the translations proposed by Witold Pospieszała and Jacek Dehnel adhere to any these approaches and whether and how they try to deal with the ambiguities that make James’s masterpiece so uncanny.

To read is to cross the boundaries of the self, to give oneself up to the other in an act of participation. Reading is part of the process where truth comes to unveil itself on the ontic plane. In reading it is more important to experience the inexpressible than to express it. To read means to test reality as a text. This summarizes the main points of the article. Reading thus understood iscontrasted here with the practice of interpretation, which ever more often discovers its own theoretical insufficiency.
The given study focuses on fundamental thematic transformation patterns of human protagonists in the fictive world of ancient narratives (fairy tales, myths, eposes, legends, etc.) from many world cultures (from Europe, Asia, America, Africa, Australia). Our aim will be to find out in what narrative situations and sujet-motif constellations a heroic transformation becomes a punishment.The intent of the proposed research is not only to contribute to the basic typological classification of the transformations of the characters in the investigated magic narratives, but also to conceptually affect the archetypal meaning of the essential transformation for punishment.

Artykuł poświęcony został fundamentalnym tematycznym wzorcom transformacji ludzkich bohaterów w starożytnych narracjach (baśniach, mitach, eposach, legendach itp.) pochodzących z wielu kultur świata (z Europy, Azji, Ameryki, Afryki, Australii). Celem tekstu jest zbadanie, w jakich sytuacjach narracyjnych i sjużetowo-motywicznych strukturach występuje transformacja bohatera stanowiąca dla niego karę. Intencją proponowanych badań jest nie tylko wniesienie wkładu w podstawową typologiczną klasyfikację transformacji postaci w badanych narracjach, ale również ujęcie archetypowych znaczeń zjawiska.

Did Everybody in Gniezno Ice-Skate? Ice Skates from the Settlement Targowisko in Gniezno – on the Means of Their Use in the Middle Ages and Not Only When writing the present article, the question was posed how common the use of ice skates had been in the period of the Middle Ages, confirmed in the literature on the subject by numerous references and information.It has been assumed that the issue is very complex. On the one hand, ice-skating was treated cursorily – any object made of bone whose shape resembled a “boat” must have been an ice-skate – on the other hand, the common use of skates found no confirmation in interdisciplinary studies. Meanwhile, our micro- and macroscopic analyses of the finds originating from the settlement in Gniezno called Targowisko, supported in full the conjecture that, in very wet places, surrounded by water, “ice-skating”, both as a means of transportation and as a form of recreation (!) was a part of everyday life. Moreover, a definite scheme of research has been developed which can be applied to all artefacts designated as ice skates; in all periods of history. Simultaneously, during our research, there arose many new questions which shall be answered, we hope, as a result of further analyses and related considerations. They are very intriguing questions as they concern man.
The article is dedicated to detailed analyzing and interpreting the Miłosz’s poem O zbawieniu [On salvation]. This poem was most probably written two years before Miłosz’s death and was located at the end of the volume Last Poems (2006). The author confronts “the last poem” of Miłosz with Mickiewicz’s “the cry poem” written in Lausanne (“wiersz płacz” as Przyboś called it): “I shed pure tears, countless tears…”. Both poems – though representing different genres – (Mickiewicz’s poem is a model example of immediate lyrical confession; Miłosz’s poem has a form of poetic minitreaty) express related ideas through similar fig-ures such as: repetition, enumeration, synecdoche, ellipse. Both texts can be related not only because of the similarities in composition and structure, but also because of their catharsis- aimed character. Mickiewicz achieves purification through tears shed over his life and humble acceptance of the fact that a project formed in his youth resulted in a disaster in his manhood. Miłosz presents the state of liberating salvation as a result of the peaceful and lighted with non-of-this-world gleam contemplation of the difficult truth concerning the necessity of giving up all the earthly things. Both “last poems” of the great poets can be regarded as the masterpieces of a lyric of vanitas. Their main aim can be described as an attempt to confront the mystery of eschatological dimension of human existence.
Biblical canons reflect the theology of communities that are responsible for their final shape. A majority of texts that were written during the biblical and early postbiblical period belong to a few communities and are collected in different canons. The present article considers two of them: the Hebrew Bible and the Catholic Old Testament, from the perspective of the Pentateuch, with the aim of grasping some of the doctrinal differences between early Christianity and Rabbinic Judaism. The canon of the Hebrew Bible is totally oriented towards the Pentateuch and accentuates messianic hope, but is completely closed towards any new text, contrary to the canon of the Old Testament. The Old Testament is open towards New Testament by the rearrangement of basic writings contained in the Hebrew Bible.
The child at school is not an empty container that Teacher wants to fulfill with wisdom. Every child has its own inner potential, its own possibilities and the desire to become something, to make something meaningful. Our task is to recognize and respect this potential, to help the student through the content of the learning material, to find their own ways, how to develop the potential in their own favor and for social acceptance. It seems absurd, but it is logical that this potential of individuals can only be recognized by allowing them to express themselves in their own way. In order for them to have the freedom of choice of activities, content and social relationships in the learning process to reach the goals they set for themselves, including those needed for social acceptance of themselves.

The discourse regarding intentionality and interpretation in analytic philosophy of art, although ample and lively, has concerned itself almost exclusively with the literary medium. Starting from a paper published by Hans Maes, I discuss the complications that may arise in straightforwardly applying current intentionalist strategies to the realm of the contemporary visual arts. I first present a detailed account of the difference between hypothetical intentionalism and moderate actual intentionalism which will help to better understand the nature of Maes’s arguments in his paper. I then argue that the characteristics which shape the approach of moderate actual intentionalism cannot be accommodated by certain contemporary visual artworks. I will demonstrate how in certain contemporary artworks, should a viewer be interested in accepting actual intentions within her interpretation, she will have to do so with an extreme intentionalist posture rather than a moderate actual one.
In the article we consider the problem of understanding the unique lexemes-neologisms meaning people (root segment belongs to the Kazakh language, grammatical forming has the Russian basis), citizens of the country where communication is carried out by means of two languages — Kazakh and Russian. These lexical units, chosen from the modern Kazakh Russian-language press are interpreted differently by users of the two mentioned languages.
Sześć prawd wiary, którymi posługujemy się w naszej tradycji katechetycznej, zasługuje na pogłębioną analizę zarówno jeśli chodzi o ich genezę, jak i o ich treść. Artykuł w pierwszej części stanowi uzupełnienie artykułu Zbigniewa Kubackiego TJ odnośnie do ich genezy („Studia Bobolanum” 30 [2019] 4, s. 5–33), natomiast w drugiej części wskazuje na odnowioną potrzebę ich rozumienia, biorąc pod uwagę postulaty współczesnej teologii. Okazuje się, że w takiej perspektywie sześć prawd wiary zachowuje wartość jako krótka formuła wiary, choć można by dokonać w nich pewnych uzupełnień.

The six truths of faith, to which we refer in our catechetical tradition, deserves deeper analysis when it comes to both its origins and content. This article in its first part constitutes a supplementation of the article of Zbigniew Kubacki SJ dealing with the origins of the six truths of faith (“Studia Bobolanum” 30[2019] no. 4, 5–33),whereas second part points out the renewed need for the understanding of the truths taking into consideration the requirements of contemporary theology. It turns out that in such a perspective the six truths of faith preservesits value as a short formula of faith although certain supplementation could yet be made.
