Poznański Czerwiec w czasie powieściowym
The article begins with the statement based on current research, that Poznań 1956 protests are little represented in literature. Subsequently, the article analyses the construction of character and temporal composition of several novels about the Poznań 1956 protests. The novels are arranged chronologically and divided into two parts: censored ones and those published without official approval and censorship. The first group includes Jeszcze miłość by Bogusław Kogut, Odyseja, odyseja by Marian Grześczak and Wióry by Krystyna Kofta. The second group includes Krótki żywot bohatera pozytywnego by Piotr Guzy, Ciemnia by Bogusława Latawiec, Krew by Andrzej Górny, and Węzeł by Józef Ratajczak. The first group, true to the course of history, represent the rise of the political thaw and the party regaining control over situation. The second group, because of the time of writing, cover a longer time and tend to universalize the theme. In novelistic representations of Poznań 1956 protests there are two strains: uprising-themed and strike-themed. It turns out that the latter is the least present, because most novelistic characters are party-members and intelligentsia, whereas workers and ordinary people are relegated to the background. Plotlines are arranged biographically, not chronologically, because the novels are narrated as internal monologues with retrospective memories. The novels written by authors from Poznań, or related to Poznań, focus on the provintial character of the city, as opposed to the centralist influence of Warsaw.The article begins with the statement based on current research, that Poznań 1956 protests are little represented in literature.

„To” Magdaleny Tulli
The article analyses and interprets Włoskie szpilki [Italian High Heels] in the context of autobiographic writing, which is a new phenomenon in Tulli’s creative development. The analysis of autobiographical writing consists in a description of subject-construction. The construction is determined by combination of roles: the real author, the literary author, and the narrator-character. The style of the novel is characterized by the use of Holocaust topoi, and “March talk”, which leads the writer to the discovery that Polish post-war antisemitism castigates Jews for concealing their extraction. The aesthetic of postmemory, manifested in the novel, is interpreted as a transition from the modern rhetoric of inexpressibility and unutterableness, to the postmodern aesthetic of expression of what is absent
Equivalence of Wilson Loops in ABJM and N = 4 SYM Theory
In previous investigations, it was found that four-sided polygonal light-like
Wilson loops in ABJM theory calculated to two-loop order have the same form as
the corresponding Wilson loop in N = 4 SYM at one-loop order. Here we study
light-like polygonal Wilson loops with n cusps in planar three-dimensional
Chern-Simons and ABJM theory to two loops. Remarkably, the result in ABJM
theory precisely agrees with the corresponding Wilson loop in N = 4 SYM at
one-loop order for arbitrary n. In particular, anomalous conformal Ward
identites allow for a so-called remainder function of conformal cross ratios,
which is found to be trivial at two loops in ABJM theory in the same way as it
is trivial in N = 4 SYM at one-loop order. Furthermore, the result for
arbitrary n obtained here, allows for a further investigation of a Wilson loop
/ amplitude duality in ABJM theory, for which non-trivial evidence was recently
found by a calculation of four-point amplitudes that match the Wilson loop in
ABJM theory.Comment: 7 pages, 4 figures, minor changes, version to be published, report
