Polskie formy adresatywne w rosyjskich przekładach filmowych

The article discusses the difficulties in translating Polish forms of address in film dialogues based on the Russian translation of the series Tajemnica twierdzy szyfrów (The Secret of Code Fortress) (2007). Forms of address perform a significant role in linguistic communication. In film dialogues, they additionally carry information about relations between the characters, their position, and rank. In the process of film translation, forms of address are frequently omitted to shorten the translation due to technical requirements of captions or a voice-over. The analysis of the material shows that as a result of such processes, the recipient of transla-tion is deprived of information which is indispensable for the true interpretation of the film

The analysis of air pollution based on laser beam photo

The article presents a comparison of original methods of air quality measurement with a professional device Air Smart-box v. 1.2. The methodology consisted of laser beam analysis from the device. To enable detailed photo analysis for the research, an Android mobile application was developed. The OpenCV library was used to process the images. In the article, the hypothesis was put forward that the method using a binary threshold with a threshold value of 50 allows to obtain results closest to those of the station. This hypothesis was confirmed by the results of the experiments

Spójność i zróżnicowanie typów osobowości zawodowej według J. L. Hollanda a poziom natężenia wybranych wymiarów psychologicznych

Tested hypothesis derived from J. L. Holland’s (1997) theory of vocational choice: relations between combination of levels personality dimensions (Consistency, and Differentiation) and three work related personal variables (Self-Control, Acquiescence and Pragmatism). Holland’s Vocational Preference Inventory – VPI (Polish version 1998 by Nosal, Piskorz i Świąt-nicki) was used to identify consistent-inconsistent and differentiated-undifferentiated vocational patterns. Measures of Self-Control and Acquiescence were also computed using the VPI. Wojciszke’s The Pragmatism Scale (derived in part from the Self-Monitoring Scale and based on M. Snyder’s – 1974, 1979 – theory of the pragmatic and principled selves) was used to identify level of Pragmatism. Ss were 100 person, 66 women and 34 men, ages 23 to 61 years (M = 34,86,SD = 10,88) with higher level of education. They represented conventional and social types of vocation. Ss’ scores on VPI inventory using cluster analysis were grouped into three combinations of personality profiles – Consistent/Differentiated, Inconsistent/Differentiated, and Inconsistent/Undifferentiated. By using clusters as independent variables was found that Inconsistent/Undifferentiated profiles had the lowest Acquiescence scores and Consistent/Differentiated had the lowest Self-Control scores. Inconsistent/Differentiated profiles were associated with the highest Pragmatism

Cenzura a przekład

The article is devoted to the phenomenon of political censorship in the Polish cinematography from the perspective of a film translator. The conclusions presented in the article have been drawn on the basis of an analysis of translations of Polish films into Russian done by means of subtitles, dubbing and the voice over technique. In order to evade limitations imposed by the ruling political party translators used various techniques which significantly influenced a final version of the translator’s work (i.e. film). Understanding implicitly presented threads of the plot allows for correct interpretation of the work in which a part of the meaning is hidden or indirectly presented through e.g. metaphors, symbols or music. The author also emphasises that the film is an art form in which information included in its each layer plays an important role in understanding meaning of the whole work
