In recent years a number of anomalies in specimens of the species Haplophilus subterraneus (Shaw, 1789) in the class Chilopoda were discovered. This particular case of the deformed body provokes to reinterpretation of the history and evolution of cultural attitudes towards the body affected by malformations. In this paper we present changes of perceptions, attitudes and interpretations of anomalous forms- from surprise or horror to an interpretation which results in a great progress in science and in explanations of many elements of developmental processes and evolution of organisms.

W ostatnich latach odkryto szereg anomalii u osobników gatunku Haplophilus subterraneus (Shaw, 1789) w gromadzie Chilopoda. Ten szczególny przypadek ciała zdeformowanego prowokuje do ponownego odczytania historii i kształtowania się postaw kulturowych wobec ciał obarczonych anomaliami. W artykule prezentujemy zmiany postrzegania, postaw oraz interpretacji form anomalnych od zdziwienia czy przerażenia aż po odczytanie, które umożliwiło olbrzymi postęp w nauce i wyjaśnieniu wielu elementów procesu rozwoju organizmów oraz ich ewolucji.

The aim of our paper is twofold. Firstly, very original approach to the question of victims elaborated very thoroughly by Reyes Mate is presented. Unfortunately, his conceptualization of victimology is relatively little known outside Spanish and Latin American culture. It is meant as a basis for adequate theory of injustice and justice. Secondly, comprehensive and detailed metaethical analyses of fundamental concepts used by Reyes Mate are developed here by means of standard methods, i.e. triangle, hexagon, and octagon of logical oppositions.

A new discrete-time sliding-mode congestion controller for connection-oriented networks is proposed. Packet losses which may occur during the transmission process are explicitly taken into account. Two control laws are presented, each obtained by minimizing a different cost functional. The first one concentrates on the output variable, whereas in the second one the whole state vector is considered. Weighting factors for adjusting the influence of the control signal and appropriate (state or output) errors are incorporated in both the functionals. The asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system is proved, and the conditions for 100% bottleneck node bandwidth utilization are derived. The performance of the proposed algorithm is verified by computer simulations.

The paper introduces unique excerpts from Kazimierz Ajdukiewicz’s correspondence, which illustrate the reasons why his stance on sustaining courses in logic as mandatory classes was so uncompromising. Authors also briefly sketch their own position on this matter. Additionally, a model partition of philosophical issues with reference to the Stoic division is described.

The aim of the paper is to analyze the relation between hermeneutic violence and univocal semantics. Furthermore, we argue that hermeneutic violence although it concerns post mortal time span is as much dangerous as physical and psychological violence, since hermeneutic violence affects even whole generations of victims. The article contains also a brief presentation of analogical perspective in contemporary philosophical conceptions by Enrique Dussel and Mauricio Beuchot. Following Reyes Mate we claim that memory is of fundamental importance of any adequate and effective theory and especially practice of justice.

The aim of the article is to present Reyes Mate’s project for a culture of memory. Western culture/tradition tends to erase and blur the traces of crimes (even genocides) in order to achieve/restore peace; however, at the same time, this leads to ignoring the victim’s suffering and, in consequence, helps the wrongdoer. Following Reyes Mate, we argue that a memory of past injustices must constitute an integral part of the present and is the only means to prevent the hermeneutic death of victims. Any project for justice must put victims at the center of reflection. Memory is the beginning of the process that leads to reconciliation, for it makes it possible to redress both the victim and society. Moreover, it enables us to reclaim both the victim and wrongdoer as members of society. A culture of memory would also be a response to the failure of knowledge. Cases of extreme violence elude and transcend cognition; they are not only unthought but also unthinkable. Therefore, memory is a consequence not of discovering but of revealing the past: it follows from the fact that unthought exists and the unthinkable happened, which proves that our knowledge is limited and that we are able [and eager] to “invisibilize” victims’ suffering and depriving injustices of meaning. This is why memory should be the starting point for reflection on a new philosophical program against lassitude and oblivion, as well as on idealistic/anti-realistic and Enlightenment ideas. Memory reveals hidden aspects/dimensions of our reality and becomes at the same time an epistemic imperative and fundamental philosophical category.
