Abstract

The article describes selected activities included in the climate change adaptation program implemented by the city of Lisbon. It analysed changes in public spaces, ways of implementing individual tasks, as well as planning documents, architectural, technical and natural solutions. Special attention was paid to the role of research in shaping and directing urban policy.
Economical management of drinking water and rainwater is integrated with the creation of new public green spaces with different functions. It is evident that there is a desire to create a continuity of green zones, where new plantings not only promote the improvement of perceived thermal comfort, but also become new attractive pedestrian and bicycle routes. Of great interest to residents are the newly created allotment gardens, aimed at the development of urban agriculture. Some of the investments, located in tourist areas, are also of image importance, which helps build the ‘green brand of the city’, and the appreciation of Lisbon’s efforts in this regard was the award of the title of European Green Capital in 2020. The biggest challenge, however, is still to improve the accessibility and quality of public transportation.
Observing the implementations, it can be seen that all pro-climate measures coincide with the broader public interest and have positive effects on the quality of the design of public spaces.

Abstract

The author presents a series of publications by Franciszek Ziejka related to his stays in France and Portugal in 1970–1973 (Aix-en-Provence), 1979–1980 (Lisbon) and 1984–1988 (Paris). At that time, Ziejka disseminated knowledge about the language, Polish literature and culture in those universities, and at the same time, in libraries and especially archives, he undertook research on the culture of these countries and the presence of Polish literature and culture. The result was groundbreaking studies on the relationships and contacts of Polish artists and writers with representatives of Western creative circles. In these studies, Ziejka expanded our traditional knowledge of the presence of Polish culture in the West and discovered new traces of it, including those sometimes associated with such famous artists as Chopin, Joseph Conrad or Zygmunt Krasiński.
