Kryzys parlamentaryzmu a majowy zamach stanu w aspekcie bezpieczeństwa narodowego
2017
Demokracja parlamentarna nie jest typem ustroju, który może sprawnie i stabilnie funkcjonować bez solidnych podstaw ekonomicznych i społecznych, ugruntowanej i opartej na kompromisie tradycji uprawiania polityki oraz postaw obywatelskich pośród polityków i społeczeństwa. Porzucenie demokracji czyjej częściowe ograniczenie, aczkolwiek usprawiedliwione ideą racji stanu w celu wzmocnienia szeroko pojętego bezpieczeństwa narodowego, nie musi okazać się właściwym lekarstwem na problemy, z jakimi boryka się państwo. Kryzys parlamentaryzmu i przewrót majowy, zamykają okres, w którym sejm stanowił organ ostatecznie decydujący o składzie i istnieniu kolejnych rządów. Formalną zmianę we wzajemnym usy…
From a "child of light" to a "woman of genius": Sarah Grand's the beth book as the new woman bildungsroman
2021
The New Woman fiction, popular in the last decade of the 19th century, contested the traditional notions of gender roles and participated in the public debates on women’s rights. The protagonists of the New Woman novels refused to conform to the submissive and self-abnegating Victorian ideal of femininity. The article discusses the ways in which Sarah Grand, a prominent New Woman novelist and social activist, uses and transforms both the elements of her own life and the Bildungsroman conventions in her 1897 novel The Beth Book to create a heroine whose growth and development result in her personal independence and her active public engagement in women’s issues. Cast in a variety of social r…
Evo-devo mechanisms underlying the continuum between homology and homoplasy
2015
The different manifestations of equivalence and similarity in structure throughout evolution suggest a continuous and hierarchical process that starts out with the origin of a morphological novelty, unit, or homologue. Once a morphological unit has originated, its properties change subsequently into variants that differ, in magnitude, from the original properties found in the common ancestor. We will look into the nature of morphological units and their degrees of modification, which will provide the starting point for restructuring the concept of “homology,” keeping the use of homology as the identity of an anatomical part, and homogeny, as the specific variation of that anatomical part du…
Architectural technologies for life environment: biomaterials for an eco-efficient and sustainable architecture.
2020
Bio-based architecture (usually known as green architecture) is a new way of thinking, designing, and building according to innovative ethical, economic and social criteria, aimed at creating a partnership between innovation and low environmental impact. In fact, bio-architectural constructions contemplate the use of advanced materials, often of organic nature, and renewable energy resources. In this sense, it could be interpreted as a new architectural movement that tends to employ new materials essentially derived from natural elements: stone, such as lime, agricultural wastes, such as potato peel, straw, hemp, farming wastes, such as wool, etc.. Wide use is also given to the reuse of ind…

A criticism of a new edition of “Jane Eyre” and a reply to the debate aroused.
Yeasts vectored by migratory birds collected in the Mediterranean island of Ustica and description of Phaffomyces usticensis f.a. sp. nov., a new spe…
2014
Nine yeast species belonging to genera Candida , Cryptococcus , Phaffomyces , Rhodotorula and Wickerhamomyces , and one species of Aureobasidium genus were isolated from the cloaca of migratory birds. Candida glabrata and C. inconspicua were the species most frequently isolated and Wickerhamomyces sylviae , which has recently been described as a new species isolated from bird cloaca, was again found. The majority of isolates showed the ability to grow up to 40 °C and/or at pH 3.0, two environmental conditions typical of the digestive tract of birds. The phylogenetic analysis of the D1/D2 domain of 26S rRNA gene placed the cultures of Phaffomyces in a new lineage that differed from the close…
Obraz Hrista v romane Čingiza Ajtmatova "Plaha"
2011
Aitmatov introduced a biblical motif into his novel – he chose Christ examination by Pilate. The writer extended the meaning of the scene, he altered its essence and “genre,” changing it into philosophical disputation. He also invented the story of Christ sailing with his mother on the Nile and their miraculous rescue by a crocodile. These scenes are presented in such a way that they remind the myth of the birth and death of Christ which allows rating Aitmatov's figure of Christ to the fifth category of literary embodiment of Christ proposed by T. Ziołkowski and called CHRIST AS A MYTH. A figure of Christ in the novel is a symbol of the highest perfection of humanity.
