Ars moriendi według Henninga Mankella Karnat, Anna The text concerns the colorful character of the Swedish writer Henning Mankell (1948–2015), whose various activities went far beyond the universally understood role of the creator of literature. He is known not only as of the creator of criminal novels, moral, children’s literature and playwright but also as a social activist, an observer of changes taking place in his native Sweden and a critic of relations prevailing in the modern world. Part of my reflection relates to Mankell’s latest book, Quicksand: What It Means to Be a Human Being (Polish: Grząskie piaski), which is a kind of the writer’s farewell to readers and the world. The awareness of the inevitable death caused the essays that make up the book to be very personal, and at the same time showing the attitude of man in the face of death. This attitude has the hallmarks of a universal human experience of the end of life.

Przykład polskich i białoruskich studentów Borecka, Wiktoria; Czakon-Tralski, Dorota; Pliszka, Bogdan The paper focuses on comparative studies conducted among students in Poland and Belarus. It describes different aspects of religiosity such as students’ religious identity, religious practices connected with frequency of prayer, the observance of Lent, reading religious literature, as well as the role of socialization. The hypothesis to verify, based on acknowledgement of cultural similarity, staying in the same zone of political influence and spatial proximity for tens of years, implies that faith, religious practices and religious socialization – acquired mostly in families – are similar among Polish and Belarusian students. This hypothesis was not confirmed by our studies. Religiosity of Polish and Belarusian students is different.

Once controlled by the state, religion and family, it nowadays becomes a private human affair. We are observing some changes in the area of human sexuality. There has been a shift from control to freedom; from holiness to ordinariness; and even decency was removed, which resulted in widespread shamelessness. Sexuality is almost ubiquitous in society, especially in the media, in culture, and in advertising. The paper focuses on the changes in sexuality, reaching for tradition and religion, up to modern times. Wed, 01 Jan 2020 00:00:00 GMT http://hdl.handle.net/11716/14219 2020-01-01T00:00:00Z
