Eric Baratay w swoich publikacjach upomina się o uzupełnienie dziejów ludzi historią zwierząt, przechodzi na ich stronę i próbuje uwolnić historię od jej wyłącznie antropocentrycznego widzenia. Zwierzęta nie posługują się ludzkim językiem, nie potrafią zapisać swoich doświadczeń, by tworzyć wielką historię zwierząt. Mają za to ludzkich przyjaciół. Zabiegiem pośrednim umożliwiającym osiągnięcie wytyczonego przez Barataya celu mogą być opowieści o zwierzętach, ich zapisane biografie w osobistych notatkach ludzi. W artykule zapisane we wspomnieniach Antoniny Żabińskiej, Doroty Sumińskiej i Sy Montgomery historie świnek, tworzące przyczynek do historii zwierząt.
The elaboration is rooted in the humanities, it constitutes a so-called case study and it suits the discussion on the significance of psychosocial, biographic and axiological factors in the study of people with disabilities. The Diary by Aleksander Wat, a poet and intellectualist constitutes an extraordinary and the only such mature testimony of suffering written in Polish, a linguistic record of pain in Wallenberg syndrome. Raising awareness and the holistic approach to disability is particularly important if rehabilitation is almost impossible. Apart from physical pain, mental pain is equally significant, and a physiotherapist with their compassion and understanding can significantly alleviate suffering of the patient and their loved ones. In the elaboration significance of the humanistic coefficient is highlighted, the application of which in the rehabilitation interaction protects both sides of the contact from the asymmetry of power relations.
Leopold Tyrmand. Writer’s notebook: self-creation and the novelThe paper “Leopold Tyrmand. Writer’s notebook: self-creation and the novel” presents a colorful character in the landscape of post-war, communist Poland. The analysis focuses on “Diary 1954” and is conveyed using both current research and the critics’ reviews of the author’s contemporaries. The literary features exposed in this paper consist of self-creation, using members of the artistic community of that time as characters as well as the motif of an erotic relationship. Leopold Tyrmand consciously creates his own story; his diary becomes a novel, while his life story of his life is gaining literary shape.
