Elucidating geological and biological processes underlying the diversification of Sulawesi tarsiers.
2009
Because of their exceptionally long independent evolution, a range diminution of their Eocene relatives, and a remarkable subsequent diversification in Southeast Asia, tarsiers are of particular importance to evolutionary primatologists. Little is known, however, on the processes shaping the radiation of these small enigmatic primates—especially on the Indonesian island of Sulawesi, their center of endemism. Geological reconstructions and progress in applying DNA sequence information to divergence dating now provide us with the tools and background to comprehend tarsier dispersal. Here, we describe effects of plate-tectonic movements, Pleistocene sea level changes, and hybridization on the…
Superwomen? Young sporting women, temporality and learning not to be perfect
2020
New forms of neoliberal femininity create demanding horizons of expectation for young women. For talented athletes, these pressures are intensified by the establishment of dual-career discourses that construct the combination of high-performance sport and education as a normative, ‘ideal’ pathway. The pressed time perspective inherent in dual-careers requires athletes to employ a variety of time-related skills, especially for young women who aim to live up to ‘superwoman’ ideals that valorise ‘success’ in all walks of life. Drawing on existential phenomenology, and in-depth interviews with 10 talented Finnish sportswomen (aged 19–22), we explored their experiences of lived time when pursui…
Nazwa własna a nazwa pospolita - dylematy pogranicza chrematonimii
2020
Nazwy produktów (ang, product name* 1) należą do tej grupy chrematonimii użytkowej, która przez onomastów nazywana jest chrematonimią marketingową (Gałkowski, 2008: 52). Przedmiotem artykułu są nazwy produktów cukierniczych, które sprawiają problem z ich zaklasyfikowaniem do grupy nazw własnych. Nazwy te wyekscerpowane zostały z różnych blogów kulinarnych, dostępnych w latach 201 7-20183. Analiza przykładów typu: mazurek, mazurek kajmakowy i Mazurek Joanny, sernik, Sernik z rosą i Legendarny sernik z mango powinna doprowadzić do odpowiedzi na pytania: Gdzie jest granica między nazwą własną a pospolitą i czy jest możliwe jej wyznaczenie? Które z nazw produktów są nazwami pospolitymi (gatunko…
Netaisnas iedzīvošanās institūta regulējums Civillikumā, tā salīdzinājums ar kopējā modeļa projektu (draft common frame of reference)
2017
Par netaisnu iedzīvošanos pēc neatkarības atjaunošanas Latvijā rakstīts ārkārtīgi maz. Izsmeļošākais avots ir Civillikuma saistību tiesību daļas komentāri, kuri gan arī sastādīti pirms vairāk nekā 16 gadiem. Tiesu prakse gan rāda, ka strīdi no netaisnas iedzīvošanās izceļas pietiekami bieži, tomēr šobrīd likumā atrodamā sistēma ir arhaiska, smagnēja un sadrumstalota. Eiropā ir izstrādāts Kopējā modeļa projekts (Draft Common Frame of Reference), kurš netaisnas iedzīvošanās regulējumam veltījis atsevišķu grāmatu. Darbā autore analizē netaisnas iedzīvošanās sistēmu Civillikumā un meklē efektīvāko regulējumu šim institūtam, salīdzinot to ar Kopējā modeļa izstrādāto netaisnas iedzīvošanās sistēm…
Proper Names and Common Names – Problems at the Frontier of Chrematonymy
2019
Przedmiotem artykułu są nazwy produktów cukierniczych, które jako chrematonimy sytuują się na pograniczu nazw własnych. Materiał wyekscerpowany został z różnych blogów kulinarnych, dostępnych w latach 2017–2018. Cel rozważań to odpowiedź na pytania z zakresu onomastyki, gdzie jest granica między nazwą własną a pospolitą i czy jest możliwe precyzyjne jej wyznaczenie. Analiza semantyczna onimów, określenie ich funkcji (marketingowo-perswazyjnej) i testy gramatyczne (test orzecznikowy i zaimkowy), którym poddano poszczególne jednostki, prowadzą do podziału nazw produktów na trzy grupy: nazwy pospolite, nazwy pospolite z członem dyferencjalnym i nazwy własne. Istnieją jednak elementy pograniczn…
Open Source and New Media Artists
2007
This paper deals with the open source method practiced within the new media art context. I present a case study on an international festival, PixelACHE 2005, which was organized by and for new media artists and served as a platform for demonstrations of new media projects and as a meeting place for experimental new media artists. In this article I discuss how new media artists adapted the open source ideology. Open source is seen both as a more liberal method of distribution and as an open joint creative process. I was particularly interested in what kind of motives the new media artists had for taking part in the PixelACHE festival and the joint artistic creative process. In my analysis, I…
Virtual Slovak : insight into learning Slovak in an e-learning environment
2015
This paper offers insight into learning Slovak in an e-learning environment. The need to reach distance-learners of Slovak led to the implementation of a web-based course on Slovak language and culture in 2008–2010. The pedagogical basis of the course, called Virtual Slovak, is the socioconstructivist approach to teaching and learning, in which the focus is on the development of learners’ communicative competence. This teaching experiment led to a study in which the focus was on learners’ beliefs and experiences regarding learning Slovak in an e-learning environment. The results showed that this particular learning environment had a positive impact on the development of learners’ agency. Th…

When other rules defend dissidents : the situation of Protestants and Orthodox Christians in the Polish - Lithuanian Commonwealth of the Saxon era
2018
The article address the problem of limiting the rights of Protestants and other non-Catholic Christian denominations during the reigns of two kings from the Wettin dynasty - King Augustus II (1697-1733). The process started as early as the second half of the 17th century, but it was fully accomplished in the years 1717-1736. In the article the author discussed the resolutions of the sejms and other legal acts introduced at that time, the aim of which was to eliminate dissenters from public life. The Polish monarchs were inert towards the process. It was the rulers of non - Catholic European states (Prussia, Russia and Great Britain) that helped Protestants an Orthodox Christans in Poland
