Unofficial surnames used by the Lithuanian minority in Poland: The linguistic and cultural heritage of the Polish-Lithuanian borderlandUnofficial surnames are rare because surnames today are generally official in character. However, in the case of Polish citizens who are Lithuanians, they are a phenomenon that has long been present, although visible mostly – and until the entry into force of the Act on National Minorities (2005) predominantly – in intra-group communication. Considering that until recently it was not possible to register the Lithuanian forms of surnames and use them officially, this anthroponymic cultural heritage has long been transmitted between generations only informally.On the basis of the analysis of approximately 330 pairs of surnames extracted from telephone directories covering the area of compact residence of the Lithuanian minority (two of them in Polish, and one – in Lithuanian), the article discusses from the socioonomastic point of view (cf. Ainiala, 2016) the phenomenon of parallel functioning among the members of the Lithuanian minority in Poland of two surname forms: an official Polish one and an unofficial Lithuanian one. The latter differs from the former graphically and morphonologically, and in almost 30 per cent of cases their match is not unambiguous (i.e. one Polish form corresponds to more than one Lithuanian form, and, conversely, one Lithuanian form – to two or even more forms in Polish). It should be emphasised that the presence of formal exponents of Lithuanianness (Lithuanian diacritics, inflectional endings, feminine suffixes) does not necessarily imply the Lithuanian etymology of the surname. The situation is additionally complicated by the fact that in everyday intra-group communication members of the Lithuanian minority in our country use not literary Lithuanian, in which they write their surnames in minority documents (such as Lithuanian minority periodicals Aušra, Suvalkietis, Šaltinis, Terra Jatwezenorum, or bilingual yearly school reports in the schools with Lithuanian as the language of instruction), but the dialect of the Dzuks, in which their surnames are pronounced.The picture is complemented by interviews conducted in early 2018 with about 40 members of this minority, and by contributions on the Internet forum of Lithuanians in Poland regarding their attitude to the official (re-)Lithuanisation of surnames. The former revealed the opinions of older respondents (over 40 years of age), and the latter – the views of younger people. Nazwiska nieurzędowe mniejszości litewskiej w Polsce – dziedzictwo językowo-kulturowe pogranicza polsko-litewskiegoNazwiska nieurzędowe spotyka się rzadko; nazwiska zwykle mają bowiem obecnie charakter oficjalny. W przypadku obywateli polskich narodowości litewskiej są one jednak zjawiskiem występującym od dawna, choć ujawniającym się głównie – a do czasu wejścia w życie „Ustawy o Mniejszościach Narodowych” (2005) przede wszystkim – w komunikacji wewnątrzgrupowej. Wobec braku (do niedawna) możliwości zalegalizowania formy litewskiej, to antroponimiczne dziedzictwo kulturowe jest zwykle przekazywane międzypokoleniowo jedynie nieformalnie.Na podstawie analizy ok. 330 par nazwisk, wyekscerpowanych z obejmujących obszar zwartego zamieszkania mniejszości litewskiej książek telefonicznych (dwóch polskich i jednej litewskojęzycznej), artykuł omawia pod kątem socjoonomastycznym (por. Ainiala, 2016) zjawisko równoległego funkcjonowania wśród członków mniejszości litewskiej w Polsce nazwisk w dwu postaciach: oficjalnej polskiej i nieoficjalnej litewskiej. Te ostatnie różnią się od oficjalnych graficznie oraz morfonologicznie, a w przypadku blisko 30% wzajemne przyporządkowanie obu grup nie jest jednoznaczne (tzn. jednej formie polskiej odpowiada więcej niż jedna litewska, bądź odwrotnie, jednej litewskiej dwie lub nawet więcej polskich). Należy podkreślić, że obecność formalnych wykładników litewskości (litewskie diakrytyki, końcówki fleksyjne, sufiksy żeńskie) nie musi implikować litewskiej etymologii nazwiska. Sytuację dodatkowo komplikuje fakt, że zamieszkujący północno-wschodni kraniec Polski członkowie mniejszości litewskiej w naszym kraju na co dzień posługują się nie literackim językiem litewskim, którym zapisują swe nazwiska w dokumentach mniejszościowych (takimi jak czasopisma mniejszości litewskiej „Aušra”, „Suvalkietis”, „Šaltinis”, „Terra Jatwezenorum”, czy dwujęzyczne świadectwa szkolne w szkołach z litewskim językiem nauczania), a gwarą dzukowską, i z reguły taką też ich nazwiska mają postać mówioną.Obrazu dopełniają przeprowadzone na początku 2018 roku wywiady z około 40 przedstawicielami tej mniejszości oraz wypowiedzi na forum Litwinów w Polsce, dotyczące ich stosunku do oficjalnej (re)lituanizacji nazwisk. Wywiady umożliwiły poznanie zdania respondentów starszych (powyżej 40. roku życia), zaś posty w Internecie – opinii osób młodszych.

Ukraine is the motherland of not only Ukrainians but also of many national minorities with different cultures and traditions. Ukraine is a Christian country in general, with non-Christian and non-Christian religions and confessional currents, along with traditional churches - Orthodox, Catholic, Protestant - rooted and actively developing non-traditional Ukrainian culture and spirituality. In Ukraine there is a complex process of spiritual revival, especially in the intellectual environment. Many are written and talk about the preservation of cultural heritage. Everywhere, monuments of architecture, art, which testify to the generally recognized historical contribution of Christianity to the development of spirituality and morality of the Ukrainian people, are restored. In our eyes, there are changes in social and religious relations.

The explosive growth of the number of applications based on networked virtual environment technology, both games and virtual communities, shows that these types of applications have become commonplace in a short period of time. However, from a research point of view, the inherent weaknesses in their architectures are quickly exposed. The Architecture for Large-Scale Virtual Interactive Communities (ALVICs) was originally developed to serve as a generic framework to deploy networked virtual environment applications on the Internet. While it has been shown to effectively scale to the numbers originally put forward, our findings have shown that, on a real-life network, such as the Internet, several drawbacks will not be overcome in the near future. It is, therefore, that we have recently started with the development of ALVIC-NG, which, while incorporating the findings from our previous research, makes several improvements on the original version, making it suitable for deployment on the Internet as it exists today.

The article uses case studies of artistic and cultural practices on Internet in Serbia (1996–2014) to provide a deeper analysis of possible uses of internet technology and internet art for social and political change as well as showcasing changing attitudes toward the internet in a transitional semi-periphery state. Through analyzing these questions, the article defines several phases of development of internet and art projects in Serbia including (a) the phase of techno-utopia when internet technology was used for staging and supporting student protests and the so-called first ‘internet revolution’ in Serbia (1996–1999); (b) the phase of ambivalence or ‘mixed feelings’ toward the Internet, triggered of by Kosovo War and North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO)-led bombing of 1999–2000; (c) the phase of optimism and hope about the Internet after the ‘October 5th’ revolution (2000–cc. 2005); and (d) the phase of disillusionment with both the Internet and democracy (2010–2014). This study re-evaluates early achievements and democratic principles of networked society and illuminates core issues and accomplishments of cyberculture from the 1990s until present times through the point of view of multiple actors present within Serbian art and culture.

In light of the many major changes in the lives of children and adolescents due to digital developments, this study sought to examine positive and negative experiences, e-safety and sharing with others while surfing the internet and especially social networks from the point of view of children and adolescents. The study also examined the correlation between these experiences, self-image and computer skills. Participating in this mixed-method study were 373 children and teenagers, who were divided into three age groups. The findings showed a positive correlation between self-image, the level of computer skills and the degree of internet use. The measure of self-esteem was found to correlate positively with the parameters of social networks surfing except for the parameter of negative experiences. Social networks and internet use among 16-18-year-olds was found to be higher than among younger children, with a rise in the number of teenagers’ negative experiences that corresponded to the rise in use. The adolescents also mentioned they had been exposed to violent content at a higher rate than the younger groups.
