The article is an analysis of the translation of the poem A Supermarket in California (Supermarket w Kaliforni), the only poem by Allen Ginsberg translated by Stanisław Barańczak. In the critical works of the author of Facial Corrections (Korekta twarzy) the beatnik’s poetics is contrasted with the poetry of Robert Frost and James Merill – writers crucially important to the translator. Despite this, A Supermarket… enriched Barańczak’s anthology of American Poetry published in 1998. The translator’s key choice appears to be the use of a conversational idiom, placing the poem opposite the ‘howling’ diction from the flagship poems of the author of Howl. The testaments of a dialogue with tradition is what Barańczak seeks in it; he is most interested in the formal and semantic bows to the father of American poetry. What Barańczak makes the semantic dominant is, rather than the structure of the text or the images evoked in it, Whitman’s patronage with all its consequences.

Lata sześćdziesiąte XX w. w USA to moment aktywności społecznej i politycznej młodego pokolenia. Ich przejawem było m.in. ekspresyjne podkreślanie własnej odrębności. Ich symbolem stał się spór o niewielką działkę w Berkeley w maju 1969 r. W gorącej atmosferze politycznej Kalifornii i końca dekady gwałtowność kontrowersji wokół Parku Ludowego doprowadziła do nieudanej próby ich rozwiązania przy pomocy sił porządkowych, a śmierć jednego z uczestników demonstracji nadała im charakter znaczenie szerszy niż nieporozumienia wokół wykorzystania nieużywanej działki.The 1960s in the US were marked by social and political activity of a young generation. It was evident in, among other things, expressive stressing of their own distinctiveness. The controversy over a small plot of land in Berkeley in May 1969 became their symbol. In the hot political atmosphere of California at the end of the 1960s the dispute about the People’s Park led to a failed attempt to resolve it by force with the use of law enforcement services, and the death of one of the protesters gave the conflict much broader character than a local controversy over an unused plot of land.

Oceanic dolphins (Odontoceti: Delphinidae) constitute the most speciose family of extant cetaceans, yet their fossil record is limited. Although several extinct species are known from Mediterranean and North Atlantic localities, there are few examples from deposits along the Pacific Rim. Despite the rich record of successive marine mammal fossil assemblages in the extensively sampled eastern North Pacific, only one fossil delphinid, Protoglobicephala (Pliocene, Baja California), has been described. We report globicephaline remains from the Mio-Pliocene Purisima Formation of Northern California, including a partial cranium and two isolated petrosals. The skull exhibits large ridges on the premaxillae, and cannot be referred to any extant globicephaline genus. Similarly, the petrosals cannot be referred to any described delphinid genus, although they are most similar to those of Globicephala. Linear regression analyses demonstrate that promontorium length and bony nares width scale significantly within delphinidans, and provide a new method for testing referrals of isolated fossil odontocete petrosals to taxa known only by crania. Applying this method to the new globicephalines from the Purisima Formation, we find the petrosals to be too small to represent the same taxon as the skull, thus indicating the presence of two separate species. Our results demonstrate that globicephalines had achieved a worldwide distribution by the early Pliocene, suggesting diversification of the subfamily by 5 Ma.

A new monogenean species Neoheterobothrium hippoglossini sp. n. from the gill cavity of Hippoglossina stomata Steindachner, 1876 is described and illustrated. The new species differs from its seven congeners in a number of morphological features and in having a different host. The validity of the genus Neoheterobothrium is discussed. Neoheterobothrium mcdonaldi Payne, 1987 is relegated from the genus and from the subfamily Choricotylinae and placed in one of the remaining subfamilies of the family Diclidophoridae.

W jamie skrzelowej soli wielkogębowej Hippoglossina stomata Steindachner, 1876 złowionej w Pacyfiku, przy brzegu w okolicy miejscowości Huntington Beach znaleziono pięć osobników przywry monogenetycznej. Szczegółowe badania morfologiczne wykazały, że znaleziony pasożyt reprezentuje rodzaj Neoheterobothrium Price, 1943. Badane osobniki różniły się pod względem niektórych cech morfologicznych od innych gatunków należących do tego rodzaju, dlatego też autorzy zdecydowali się uznać go za nowy gatunek, nadając mu nazwę Neoheterobothrium hippo- glossini sp. n. Niniejsza praca zawiera dyskusję dotyczącą rodzaju Neoheterobothrium. W wyniku tej dyskusji Neoheterobothrium mcdonaldi Payne, 1987, został usunięty z rodzaju oraz podrodziny Choricotylinae dojednej z pozostałych podrodzin rodziny Diclidophoridae.

Fourteen gastropod species from 16 Mesozoic hydrocarbon seep carbonate deposits of the Great Valley Group and Franciscan Complex in California are described. Two genera are new: Bathypurpurinopsis has a fusiform shell with a siphonal fold, and variable Paskentana has turbiniform or littoriniform shells with spiral and/or scaly sculpture and convex or shouldered whorls. Due to the lack of data on shell microstructure and protoconch morphology, many of our taxonomic assignments have to remain tentative at present. Species that are described as new include: Hokkaidoconcha bilirata, H. morenoensis, H. tehamaensis (Hokkaidoconchidae), Abyssochrysos? giganteum (Abyssochrysidae?), Paskentana globosa, P. berryessaensis, and Bathypurpurinopsis stantoni (Abyssochrysoidea, family uncertain). The total fauna represents a mixed bag of taxa that were: (i) widely distributed during the late Mesozoic (Amberleya); (ii) restricted to late Mesozoic seep carbonates in California (Atresius, Bathypurpurinopsis, Paskentana); and (iii) members of seep/deep−sea groups with a long stratigraphic range (abyssochrysids, hokkaidoconchids).

Subgenus Caverneleodes of the genus Eleodes is diagnosed and revised. Six new species from the United States: California (E. microps); Utah and Northern Arizona (E. wynnei), Central Arizona (E. wheeleri), Southern New Mexico (E. guadalupensis), and Mexico (E. thomasi and E. grutus) are described. The biogeography of the subgenus is discussed. Diagnoses and a key are provided to known species of Caverneleodes. Relationships with other Eleodes are discussed. Cave associated Amphidorini are surveyed.

There are remarkably few direct fossil records of Copepoda, which implies that current estimates of the lineage divergence times and inferences on the historical biogeography remain highly dubious for these small-sized crustaceans. The Cyclopidae, a predominantly freshwater copepod family with 1000+ species and distributed worldwide, has no fossil record at all. Recent collections from the middle Miocene Barstow Formation in Southern California resulted in ample material of finely preserved cyclopid fossils, including both adult and larval stages. To document the antennulary setation pattern in the adult and copepodid instars we used a coding system that is coherent between sexes and developmental stages. The majority of the cyclopid fossils, coming from saline lake environment, represent the modern genus Apocyclops, a euryhaline, thermophilic group occurring both in the New World and Old World. A new species Apocyclops californicus is described, based on the short medial spine and spiny ornamentation of the free segment of leg 5, spinule ornamentation of pediger 5, and well-developed protuberances of the intercoxal sclerite of leg 4. The presence of antennal allobasis and the features of the swimming legs unambiguously place the Miocene Apocyclops in the A. panamensis- clade, a predominantly amphi-Pacific group. The middle Miocene fossils with clear affinities to a subgroup of Apocyclops imply an early Miocene or Paleogene origin of the genus. Based on the geographic patterns of the species richness and morphology in Apocyclops and its presumed closest relative, genus Metacyclops, we hypothesize that: (i) the ancestor of Apocyclops, similar in morphology to some cave-dweller Metacyclops occurring today in the peri-Mediterranean region, might have arrived in North America from Europe via the Thulean North Atlantic bridge in the late Paleocene–early Eocene; (ii) Eocene termination of the Thulean land connection might have resulted in the divergence of Apocyclops from the Metacyclops stock.

We examined the temporal variation in capture rates of shrews Notiosorex crawfordi (Coues, 1877) and Sorex ornatus (Merriam, 1895) in 20 sites representing fragmented and continuous habitat in southern California, USA. In N. crawfordi, the temporal variation was significantly correlated with the mean capture rates. Of the 6 landscape variables analyzed (size of the landscape, size of the sample area, altitude, edge, longitude and latitude), sample area was positively correlated with variation in capture rates of N. crawfordi. In S. ornatus, longitude was negatively correlated with variation in capture rates. Analysis of the effect of precipitation on the short- and long-term capture rates at 2 of the sites showed no correlation between rainfall and capture rates of shrews even though peak number of shrews at both sites were reached during the year of highest amount of rainfall. A key problem confounding capture rates of shrews in southern California is the low overall abundance of both shrew species in all habitats and seasons.

The present paper reassesses D. J. Waldie’s 1996 memoir Holy Land: A Suburban Memoir as an intervention against the jaundiced portrayal of the United States suburbs as a place of alienation. I will argue that Waldie’s account of Lakewood, California, which he presents as a sacred place epitomised by the suburban grid, provides an insightful example of a refusal to comply with certain hegemonic narratives about space in American culture. For this purpose, I will first explore the way Waldie engages with previous critical work about the suburbs. I will next analyse the twofold attitude the grid triggers in the writer and conclude with a reflection upon the potential status of D. J. Waldie as a post-western writer, arguing that his account of suburban life ultimately manages to escape the stereotypes that prevail in the national cultural imaginary, which depict the United States suburbs either as an Edenic realm of upward mobility or as a soulless place of alienation.

„Piękna i okropna”: dwuznaczność siatki i przedmieść w Holy Land: A Suburban Memoir D. J. Waldiego Artykuł omawia wspomnienia D. J. Waldiego zatytułowane Holy Land: A Suburban Memoir (1996), uznając je za odpowiedź na zgorzkniały sposób prezentacji amerykańskich przedmieść, będących miejscami alienacji. Dowodzę, iż Waldie, opisując Lakewood w Kalifornii jako miejsce święte, czyli podmiejską siatkę osiedli, odrzuca dominujące w amerykańskiej kulturze opowieści o przestrzeni. Wywód rozpoczyna analiza tego, jak Waldie analizuje wcześniejsze prace krytyczne poświęcone przedmieściom. Następnie analizuję dwoistą postawę wywołaną przez podmiejską siatkę w autorze. Artykuł kończy refleksja nad potencjalnym statusem Waldiego jako pisarza post-zachodniego; wysuwam argument, iż jego opis życia na przedmieściach unika stereotypów obecnych w narodowej świadomości Amerykanów – przedmieścia albo jako raju dla osób pnących się po drabinie społecznej albo bezdusznego miejsca alienacji.
