Aluzja polityczna jako środek teatralnego przekładu. O "Lizystracie" w opracowaniu Stanisława Koźmiana
2022
In his 1895 adaptation of Aristophanes’ Lysistrata prepared for the Kraków Theatre, Stanisław Koźmian, wishing to avoid stage ‘archaeologism,’ based the text on the contemporary adaptation by Charles Maurice Don- nay, to which he added several scenes taken from the Greek original. The ambitious plan to translate a theatrical experience from over two thousand years ago into the language of modern communication was achieved by introducing contemporary political allusions. The premiere was consid- ered a scandal, and, according to the surviving copy with notes updating the allusions, the performance was not continued in in the Lwów threatre. The official reason for the uproar caused by Koźmian…
The Postwar Years
2009
A few months after the capitulation of the German Reich on May 9, 1945, Huckel’s newly built house, that had withstood the ravages of war, was one of many in Marburg to be confiscated by the Americans. Huckel’s nervous condition deteriorated again under the heavy psychological pressure. His allusion to this in his autobiography was down to earth:

Four Times of Politics: Policy, Polity, Politicking, and Politicization
2003
There is just one noun corresponding to the adjective political in French, German, Swedish, Finnish and so on, while the English language has three: policy, polity, and politics. Here, I shall take the tripartite division of the English polit-vocabulary as a point of departure for rethinking politics in a "de-centering" mode. The English vocabulary provides us with a glimpse into the linguistic possibilities for the formation of different perspectives from which to conceptualize politics. I have modified the tripartite division by taking into account two linguistic novelties, politicking and politicization.1 My intention is to take each of these nouns as an allusion to four aspects of conce…
El «Libro quinto de las prosas y versos del Arcadia» de Lope de Vega : una apoteosis emblemática sin imágenes
2018
ABSTRACT: Recourse to emblematic expressive modes is a constant throughout the literary production of Lope de Vega. His pastoral romance Arcadia, especially, occupies a privileged position with regards to allusions and references to emblems, imprese and hieroglyphics (hieroglíficas), as Lope calls them on several occasions. In this respect, the end of the «Fifth Book of the Arcadia» constitutes an authentic emblematic construction with its description of twenty-one imprese painted on tablets in the Temple of Disillusionment (Templo del Desengaño), described by shepherds and shepherdesses on the occasion of an amorous disappointment endured in the course of their lives. This study analyzes t…
Tacitus on Titus? Visit to the Temple of Venus at Paphos
2020
This article deals with Titus? visit to the temple of Venus at Paphos in the second book of Tacitus? Historiae. I argue that apart from its other literary intentions already mentioned by scholars, this digression implicitly connects Titus not only with Aeneas but also with Julius Caesar. Titus? affair with Berenice that recalls Caesar?s affair with Cleopatra, Tacitus? allusions to Lucan?s De Bello Civili where Caesar?s visit to the tomb of Alexander the Great is described, the ?????Motiv and fortuna?s favour that characterise both Roman generals, all contribute to connect Titus with Caesar and allow the reader to view a parallel between the Flavian and the Julio-Claudian dynasty. Furthermor…
My eden, my hell: Biblical allusions in the lyrics of Sonata Arctica
2010
Metallimusiikkia on suuresta suosiostaan huolimatta tutkittu melko vähän tieteellisesti. Koska populaarimusiikki, johon metalli Suomessa kuuluu, on olennainen arjen osa etenkin nuorilla, sen tutkiminen voi antaa uusia näkökulmia niin musiikin, kirjallisuuden kuin kulttuurinkin tutkimukseen. Sanoitusten tieteellinen tarkastelu on myös tarpeen vahvistamaan tai kumoamaan ennakkokäsityksiä, joita vahvoja mielipiteitä herättävä metallimusiikki aiheuttaa. Uskonnollisten asenteiden kartoittaminen sekulaarisessa metallimusiikissa mahdollistaa sen, että stereotyyppiset oletukset metallin ja kristillisyyden välisistä suhteista voidaan arvioida uudelleen tutkimustiedon valossa. Tutkimuksessani metal…

The boundaries of citation and allusion: Shakespeare in Davide ferrario's Tutta colpa di giuda (2008), Alfredo Peyretti's Moana (2009), and Connie Ma…
2018
The paper focuses on the following samples of media material: Davide Ferrario’s Tutta colpa di Giuda (2008), a film set in an Italian prison that references Hamlet; Alfredo Peyretti’s Moana (2009), which is about the life of Italian porn star Moana Pozzi, and incorporates lines from A Midsummer Night’s Dream; a 2001 episode of Crime Scene Investigation entitled “Caged” that makes citations from Othello interact with an investigation into what looks like a murder; and Connie Macatuno’s Rome and Juliet (2006), a Filipino experimental film that turns Shakespeare’s tragic love story into a lesbian romance. The paper argues that “Shakespeare” is a fragmentary but significant presence in each of …
The Einstein field equation in a multidimensional universe
1988
String theory [4] predicts that the universe has 10 or 26 dimensions. A salient problem is how the Einstein field equation should be written in terms of these revivified Kaluza-Klein cosmologies. The answer is by now well-known, yet nobody seems to have rewritten the seminal computation in [6] where an unnecessarily involved Euler-Lagrange variational method is employed and, curiously enough, no allusion to the Gauss-Bonnet-Chern theorem is made. We provide a more straightforward argument, which has been inspired by Hilbert's original derivation of the Einstein field equation [5].
