Abstract

The article studies the use of linking adverbials (LAs) in English-medium articles by Polish and Anglophone scholars representing medicine and psychology, attempting to reveal discipline- and culture-specific preferences in the choice, frequency and distribution of linkers. The results show that disciplinary and linguacultural constraints impact on LA use. Variation across disciplines reflects differences in the knowledge base and its rhetorical management, as there are significantly more LAs in psychology than in medicine. Cross-cultural variation determines the choice of specific LA (sub)categories in line with the authors’ linguacultural backgrounds, target readers and publication contexts. These findings can raise academic writers’ awareness of culture- and discipline-driven aspects of adverbial cohesion in English academic prose.

Abstract

My paper examines both the reading of Russian classics by the American writer George Saunders and the critical reception of his book, A Swim in a Pond in the Rain: in Which Four Russians Give a Master Class on Writing, Reading, and Life, in Russia and Poland. The primary objective is to analyse Saunder’s method of reading Russian classics and how he discusses it with his students. The author appreciates the universal, humanistic values of Russian classic stories and their potential to cultivate readers’ empathy. The central theme of interest revolves around alterity, as the reading itself can be considered a form of encountering the “other.” The paper poses questions regarding the quality of dialogue between participants who do not share the same heritage and language, and how their reception is influenced by diverse cultural backgrounds and different historical moments of publication. Additionally, the paper discusses the reactions of Russian and Polish critics to Saunders’ book.

From Separatism to Pluralism. Biblical Models of Multiculturalism and the Ways of Inculturation

Studia Nauk Teologicznych PAN | 2014 | Tom 9 | 123-138 | DOI: 10.24425/snt.2014.112776

Abstract

Pluralism and multiculturalism are new terms in biblical studies . Pluralism used in social sciences means a conditio of society in which members of diverse ethnic, racial, religious or social groups maintain their unique cultural identities. Multicultu-ralism focuses on interactions between different groups and communities within the confines of a common society. This paper aims at analysing the practice and models of pluralism in the Bible and the evaluation of pluralism in the biblical context (from separatism in the Abraham days until the multicultural Christian community in the first century). Christianity existed as a pluralistic community from the beginning. Paul the Apostle presents the Church as the body of Christ and interactions within the Chri-stian community consisting of Jews and Gentiles are illustrated by relations between members of the body. The mission of the Church is based on various models of incul-turation (contextualisation). All of these models intersect with one another in different ways. Pluralism in the biblical studies manifests itself also in the use of different Bible translation strategies and various methods of biblical exegesis and interpretation.

Kharkiv Text of Ukrainian Literature in the Context of Frontier Identity. (H. Kvitka‑Osnovʹyanenko)

Abstract

The Kharkiv text of Ukrainian literature is examined for the first time from the point of view of a cross‑cultural analysis of the iconic work by H. Kvitka‑Osnovʹyanenko The Foundation of Kharkiv. The expediency for introducing this concept into academic circulation is argued for because of the traditional covering of Kharkiv and Sloboda Ukraine in literature, culture, and history. Substantiated are the conditions and specifics of the integral text about the city and the formation of identity under the influence of frontier psychology. Emphasized are the differences between the creation of national stereotypes and the birth of an independent worldview, and postcolonial experience.
