The theoretical considerations concerning the functions, categories and forms of in-service training are supported by the results of a survey conducted among Polish teachers of foreign languages. The study aimed to diagnose which forms, topics and modes of in-service training are of the highest interest to the respondents, and recognise their preferences with regard to future training. The data collected show that the respondents are eager to use the offer of training, are open to new proposals in respect to the mode and topic of the training itself, and are mostly competent enough to evaluate it thoroughly.","PeriodicalId":41095,"journal":{"name":"Roczniki Humanistyczne","volume":"83 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139146688","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Following Sigmund Freud’s insight about the lost object of love and combining Abraham and Torok’s and Kristeva’s writings on melancholy, the text argues that the Foster women’s overwhelming melancholy may be attributed to three factors: the grandfather’s death, creating the rupture in the symbolic order; the grandmother’s unperformed mourning, which failed to mend that rupture; and the house’s progressing decay—a constant reminder of the gap between the semiotic and the symbolic.","PeriodicalId":41095,"journal":{"name":"Roczniki Humanistyczne","volume":" 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139143023","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It presents the forms of teaching Polish language, literature and culture that currently exist in Slovenia, from formal education to non-formal education. Particular attention is paid to the role of the university, namely, the University of Ljubljana, within which Polish studies operate, in popularising the Polish language and culture outside the country and outside the program of Polish studies. Since 2019, the Embassy of the Republic of Poland in Ljubljana has been organising workshops on the Polish language and knowledge about Poland for children and young people living (temporarily or permanently) in Slovenia. Using the potential of the staff concentrated around formal education centres, in our case the University of Ljubljana, and transferring it to non-formal language education, this gives young Poles living abroad the opportunity to maintain contact with Polish and with fellow countrymen abroad, and deepen their knowledge about Polish and Poland, while posing new challenges for the academic teacher.","PeriodicalId":41095,"journal":{"name":"Roczniki Humanistyczne","volume":" 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139143705","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Autor, zainspirowany koncepcją piosenki jako przykładu poezji oralnej (Paul Zumthor), przeprowadził analizy metryczne, uzupełnione odniesieniami do semantyki i specyfiki stylistycznej analizowanych utworów. Dobór badanych tekstów miał ukazać, że każdy z nich należy do innego „świata muzycznego” i wyróżnia się odrębną autorską poetyką, co otwiera pole do dyskusji nad strategiami twórczymi poetów i „tekściarzy”. Omówione piosenki należą do pięciu różnych stylistycznie odmian popularnych songów: łagodniejszej odmiany rocka (Marek Grechuta), ballady gitarowej (Edmund Fetting), synth popu (Halina Frąckowiak), bluesa (Tadeusz Nalepa) oraz ostrzejszej formy piosenki rockowej (Kora i Maanam). Artykuł dotyczy problematyki wersologicznej w poetyce gatunku piosenki.

The main objective of this article is to investigate: (1) whether the lack of vision reduces (or completely blocks) gesture production in blind individuals, and (2) whether this reduction in (or lack of) gestures has an effect on their abilities to communicate. To address this issue, we performed an experiment in which congenitally blind and sighted people were compared on the number and types of gestures they produced when playing the word-guessing game TABOO. The results obtained confirm that, compared to people who are sighted, blind individuals produce significantly fewer gestures when they communicate. This, however, does not have any negative impact on how effective they are in conveying their messages. The analyses also show that gestures play different roles for blind and sighted people.","PeriodicalId":41095,"journal":{"name":"Roczniki Humanistyczne","volume":"17 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139240613","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This course followed the principle of design-based learning. The research examines the ensuing revision of pedagogical intervention on three subsequent course iterations, taking place both under pandemic restrictions and in the post-pandemic reality, as well as the participants’ opinions and attitudes towards the changed instructional paradigm. Using a mixed quantitative and qualitative methodology, the data were collected from the participants’ final exam marks, their comments in course evaluation surveys and from semi-structured interviews. The findings reveal the multi-aspectual effectiveness of the hybrid design and the participants’ favourable attitude towards the revised course design, thus proving that this could be a new, post-pandemic course formula.","PeriodicalId":41095,"journal":{"name":"Roczniki Humanistyczne","volume":"105 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139239044","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
