Losy Polaków na Wschodzie. Od epoki zaborów, przez tragiczny wiek dwudziesty do trudnej współczesności by Jarosław Kita, Wojciech Marciniak

“…Twentieth century history is an another chapter – mass repressions against Poles-citizens of the USSR in the 1930s, exiles and deportations of the inhabitants of the Second Polish Republic during World War II, or imprisonment in the camps of the „GULAG archipelago” in the post-war Stalinist period is an era of brutal dissent of the totalitarian regime with Poles. A tsar’s deportations, or even a captivity, is something completely different from the Stalinist gulags, prisons and exile. …”

Formalismo y Metaficción: William Gass y la generación de escritores autorreflexivos norteamericanos by Belén Piqueras Cabrerizo

“…Abstract: William Gass and a group of congenial American writers that developed the bulk of their work during the 1960s and 70s produced what was defined as self-reflexive novel or metafiction, making of it a showcase of their sceptical positions concerning fiction and narrative authority as a means of conveying reality, and getting even to question the very notion of literature. Dissenting and nonconformist, these writers boldly confronted the control of political and literary authorities, appealing to the artificial and delusive nature of language’s social function and to the fallacy it constitutes in the realm of fiction.…”

Evolutionary divergence of the reptilian and the mammalian brains: considerations on connectivity and development. by Aboitiz, F, Montiel, J, Morales, D, Concha, M

“…The brains of the latter are characterized by the presence of a structure termed dorsal ventricular ridge (DVR), which receives ascending auditory and visual projections, and has been postulated to be homologous to parts of the mammalian isocortex (i.e., the auditory and the extrastriate visual cortices). Dissenting views, now supported by molecular evidence, claim that the DVR originates from a region termed ventral pallium, while the isocortex may arise mostly from the dorsal pallium (in mammals, the ventral pallium relates to the claustroamygdaloid complex). …”
