PROBLEMS Deformed Landscape. The Land of Pomerania – Paradise Lost or Common Heritage? (The Mental Image of Pomerania) Krajobraz zdeformowany. Kraina Pomorska: utracony raj czy wspólne dziedzictwo? (obraz mentalny ziemi pomorskiej) Adam M. Szymski DOI: 10.30825/5.ak.169.2019.63.2 SUMMARYOn the basis of own research (in the years 2003–2009 headed the Chair of Landscaping at the University of Agriculture in Szczecin, with the main research aim oriented towards learning about the cultural specificity of the Pomeranian past) and widely accessible Polish and German sources, only a portion of which is mentioned in the attached list of references, the author attempts to examine the phenomenon of memory regarding the reality that has its visible attributes still present in the surroundings, but lost its raison d’être in the intellectual form and no longer exists. By drawing associations between similarities in understanding cognitive content (vide the monograph by H. Szulc and reviews by German authors on rural settlement forms) and moving on to recalling subsequent administrative and clean-up activities on the erstwhile Pomeranian area along with a total (!) exchange of its inhabitants, the paper tries to highlight the issue – also political in nature – whether and to what extent a tradition developed by one nation should be cultivated by the new “colonizers”. The author draws the attention to the need of maintaining the phenomenon understood as cultural “borderlines” of regions seen as individual “little homelands” – characterized by a specific kind of local patriotism realized in the language, clothing and tradition. Guided by a particular resentment as the current inhabitant of the region, the author recalls an emotional attitude towards Pomerania among those from whom this non-existent land constitutes an indispensable (to their minds) “world in the memory”. Safe Space – Problem Analysis in the Context of Various Public Spaces Przestrzeń tolerancji – analiza problemu w kontekście różnych przestrzeni publicznych Aleksandra Blecharz, Aleksandra Lis DOI: 10.30825/5.ak.170.2019.63.2 SUMMARYTolerance is an issue of an extremely complex nature that has given rise to various attitudes in the society as a result of the influence of different factors. The spatial aspect of tolerance is the main topic discussed in detail in our paper. The aim of the study is to determine the potential of various types of public spaces, both as spaces of tolerance and conflict. The research was conducted by means of topical analysis – a qualitative method that consists in providing detailed descriptions and interpretation of the observed behaviour patterns. The analysed material consisted of comments published on the Internet concerning articles and posts about the marginalised groups. The material was analysed in terms of the fundamental research question: what kinds of public spaces intensify the problem of intolerance, and which ones reinforce tolerance? The comments were divided into three thematic groups, based on the expressed attitude (intolerant, neutral and tolerant). The topical analysis of data revealed that the most common factor that intensified intolerance was the lack of a sense of safety connected with the presence of children and the feeling of lack of control. The authors of the comments mentioned schools and the surroundings of residential estates as places where tolerance could not exist. Railway stations and other places that involve intensive communication and the chaos resulting from heavy traffic, which affects the sense of safety, were also described as spaces with negative potential. The comments representing a tolerant attitude also pointed to schools as places with a high tolerance potential, as children are open to differences and obtaining knowledge. Places connected not only with the presence of children, but also their parents, such as family entertainment parks, were mentioned as areas with higher potential to become spaces of tolerance. The reason is the fact that the sense of control over the situation and the safety of children are higher than in schools, and the overall atmosphere of fun. The main conclusion of the study is the observation that a space of tolerance should ensure a sense of safety and control and offer educational functions. PREZENTATIONS Landscape Conflict Around the Survival and Preservation of Fort III Graf Kirchbach Konflikt społeczny, architektoniczny i krajobrazowy wokół przetrwania oraz zachowania obiektu fortecznego Fortu III Graf Kirchbach Izabela Piklikiewicz-Kęsicka DOI: 10.30825/5.ak.171.2019.63.2 SUMMARYCaring for the landscape around us is undeniably a challenge. The development of an urban structure determines inevitable changes in its space. The passing of time and functional changes of settlement areas challenge the current value of areas of high spatial value. The situation of large-area architectural objects that have lost their functional value in the contemporary settlement structure is special. One such facility is Fort III Graf Kirchbach located in Poznań. The subject of the research is to present the spatial and functional issues of the selected fort in the context of the city’s spatial policy, social context and the strategy for the preservation of the historic military architecture object. The aim of the research is to outline the planning situation and the resulting disputes and opinions of different organisational environments. The outlined theme deals with landscape issues related to the needs of survival of the historic substance of the object located directly in the area of the zoo function, which has a functional and spatial development program. The said programme covering fortress spaces and the strategy of actions related to the future of Fort III are controversial in terms of the target effect that should be achieved on this monument. The research methodology covering the described issues was based on environmental interviews with organizations that take active care of the fort, inventory studies of the facility, walkthrough studies, historical and interpretative research and literature studies. The results of the research present the historical and educational value of the fortress object, whose potential has been evaluated in terms of its use for the benefit of communities and future generations. The effects of the analyses also present the opportunities and threats generated by planning and architectural strategies, which may affect the city’s structure and the lives of its inhabitants in various ways. |
