The article analyses selected problems pertaining to the Senate – the upper chamber in the Parliament of the Commonwealth of Two Nations during the reign of the Vasa dynasty (1587–1668). The author characterises the Senate by discussing nominations, numbers, and precedence of the senators. Moreover, he presents certain aspects associated with the role and activity of the senators in the course of the pre-Sejm campaign and during Sejm debates. While describing the work carried out by the Polish-Lithuanian Parliament the author draws attention to the less than imposing attendance, the significance of senatorial wota (opinions and commentaries of senators), and the positive impact exerted by the Senate in the final phase of the Sejm – the conclusion. Upon the basis of the conducted analyses it becomes obvious that the Senate performed, not only in the course of the debates held by the Sejm, several roles – that of a parliamentary estate, an 'intermediary estate', and a guardian of law.

The Ext. Cog-ADL Scale demonstrated good psychometric properties. Episodic and working memory tests were the main predictors of most cognitive-functional items of the scale. While patients with dementia obtained lower scores in most error categories of the scale, affecting both BADL and IADL, mdMCI patients showed a more specific pattern of difficulties. Apart from the typical alterations in IADL, mdMCI patients also showed difficulties in several error categories related to BADL (i.e., error detection, problem solving, task self-initiation, distraction inhibition, and restore). ; This research was supported by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation through a PhD research fellowship awarded to the last author (FPI BES-2009-020741), the Regional Government of Andalusia, Spain, through a research project granted to the second and last authors (Junta de Andalucía SEJ-6351) and the Fundación para la Investigación Biosanitaria de Andalucía Oriental – Alejandro Otero, a foundation for biomedical research in Eastern Andalusia, through a scholarship granted to the first author.

Pretty Princess Points drawings are a genre of artwork made by members of imageboards, a type of anonymous internet forum best exemplified by 4chan.org. These artworks depict female users of these websites in fictionalized, fantastical living spaces, crowded with objects heavy in reference to various memes and fictional characters from the imageboard culture imaginary. By treating the discursive history of these references as part of the technical formation of subjectivity that produces Pretty Princess Points, the author apprehends this genre of artwork as Kittlerian "discourse-network", an enframing that opens the artworks and their memetic forebears to being psychoanalytically traced back through the recent history of memes and imageboard-cultural narrative forms that make up the elements of the drawings. Through analysis of the drawings themselves, interviews with imageboard users, and observed conversation on various imageboards, the author exposes the functions Pretty Princess Points drawings realize to those who post and re-post them on anonymous imageboards.

The author uses poetic inquiry as CFIC (critical family and interpersonal communication) methodology to tell a story of cooking, cleaning, and caring for her elderly parents in the house she grew up in during the COVID-19 pandemic for 11 days in March 2020 when COVID-19 lockdowns began in the US. The piece is organized as a series of daily menus, lyric reflections, and narrative poems about family stories, family values, and the enactment of supportive behaviors that detail how a family deals with political differences, identity negotiation, and crisis. The author asks: (1) What does it mean to be a good daughter, and how is this complicated by discourses about the meaning of marriage?; (2) How does one reconcile family differences in political views and hold true to family and personal values?; and (3) How does one decide what obligations to focus on during a moment of personal and international crisis? The use of poetic inquiry shows how public cultural discourses influence private experience.

Experiencing the Real at the Crossroads of Literature, Theatre and Performance. Édouard Louis on StageThe hotly debated performance of Thomas Ostermeier's stage version of Edouard Louis's History of Violence points to a confusion concerning the role of the author, the status of the text, of its performance and of the role played by theatre in today's society. It raises a threefold question: what is the relationship between literature and reality, what defines an author (whether writer or stage director) and what does it mean that contemporary literature should be so intent on self-writing? E. Louis is particularly clear about using fiction to write about truth, but then truth all too often is construed as fact, and therefore as antithetic to fiction. He claims to explore a form of confrontational literature. In T. Ostermeier's staging he becomes the actor of his own text which only compounds the text's powerful ambiguities. Together, Louis and Ostermeier create a dynamic recomposition of the political and the intimate.

The article analyzes the management of the influence of organized interests on public policy. The article reveals the concept of organized interests, the essential differences in comparing the concepts of organized interests and interest groups. The article takes the view that organized interests are a more neutral concept that better explains the nature of all actors seeking to influence public policy-making. The author of the article is of the opinion that the concept of interest groups – due to the disagreement of scientists in defining it – causes a lot of confusion when comparing the results of different researches and using the theoretical insights of other scientists. Organized interests interact with other public policy makers to influence policy outcomes. This article analyzes the ways in which organized interests can influence public policy. According to the author of the article, by identifying the ways of influencing public policy, it is possible to envisage ways to manage that influence. The article applies methods of analysis, synthesis, generalization and comparative analysis of scientific literature.

The paper develops a Kantian view of the highest good and the relation between virtue and happiness. Several Kantian theses are defended, among them the thesis that the highest good is realized only if every virtuous individual is happy, the view that virtue is neither necessary nor sufficient for happiness, and the proposition that virtue is both necessary and sufficient for the worthiness of being happy. The author argues that the highest good ought to be realized and that it ought to be that everyone who is virtuous is happy. To prove these claims, the author will use techniques developed by modern deontic logicians. According to Kant, we do not have an immediate duty to promote our own happiness, the aim of morality being not personal satisfaction but rather virtue and the good will. The important question is not "How do I become happy?" but "How do I become good?". The arguments in this paper support this view.

On the loss and recovery of the rights of a trade union organization

The provisions of the Trade Union Act of 23 May 1991 concerning the loss and regaining the rights of a company trade union organization generate numerous interpretative doubts. The author analyses issues concerning the trade union organization's failure to comply with the obligation to provide the employer with information on the number of its members, the trade union organization's failure to timely submit an application to the labor court with jurisdiction over the employer's registered office to establish the number of its members as at the last day of the six-month period, and the organization's restoration of its rights as a result of the submission of an application to establish the number of its members. The author also draws up de lege ferenda postulates concerning the clarification of specific regulations, which should result in avoiding paralysis of the legitimate exercise of trade union rights and privileges by a trade union organization.

The article reveals the conceptualization and categorization peculiarities of simplex deverbal nouns with -er. The research is based on the extensive empiric material and is carried out at the interface of the structural and cognitive linguistics theories. The latter are represented by the methods of semantic decomposition, structural and cognitive-semantic analysis along with the method of conceptual modeling. The carried out analysis has allowed the author to elucidate that the lexis stratum under study falls into the subcategories with the cognitive basis expressed via the concepts "animate doer', "instrument", "event" and "purpose location". Having processed the empirical data the author highlights and systema- tizes the integral and differential parameters which underlie the meaning of the -er nominatives from the above mentioned categories. It has also been found out that the category "an- imate doer" has the most complicated conceptual structure and serves as a feeder for the other categories. These observations indicate the anthropocentricity of the -er deverbals semantics.

The article deals with the pragmatic aspect of the text, i.e. its focus on the addressee, the implementation of which is carried out by special means of different levels of the language. The purpose of the work is to define and study means of addressing in a scientific and educational text. The means of addressing (compositional-orienting, delimiting and thought-activating), characteristic of the author of this text, were investigated using the descriptive method. The most delightful are compositional-orienting and thought-activating means, which correspond to the author's goals. The investigated text presents not only experience, but also the art of surgery, which is achieved through the involvement of different types of dialogics. Achieve a vivid, real statement of the sequence of actions for the author allows the designation of the person to whom the advice is addressed. The undertaken research is determined by the direct connection of the studied topic with modern trends in the development of an anthropocentric approach to linguistic phenomena.

The policy brief is dedicated to the theorization of current international relations in the post-Soviet area.1 The author comes to the conclusion that international order in the region can be characterized as a "Non-hegemonic cooperation" model, developed by the American political scientist Robert Keohane. The model refers to a system which does not need to be maintained by any hegemon. Instead of being controlled by only one actor, it is regulated by a framework of institutions and cooperation regimes. This model is the best characterization of the region, as currently there is no hegemon in the area able to control its international order. Instead of this, there are five important regime-making actors in the region that create the rules of cooperation. The author finds that the situation of the "Non-hegemonic cooperation" is convenient to all former Soviet states because it is in line with their foreign policy priorities, and further maintenance of this system is beneficial for all members.
