Reference excerpt

The statues of Kargul and Pawlak (Polish pronunciation: [ˈkar.ɡul … pav.lak]; Polish: Pomnik Kargula i Pawlaka) is a bronze monument in Toruń, Poland, placed at the Chief Technical Organisation Square, at the corner of Chełm Road and Red Road, within the district of Chełmińskie Przedmieście. It stands in front of the Cinema City multiplex. The statues depict Władysław Kargul and Kazimierz Pawlak, two main characters from the comedy film trilogy by Sylwester Chęciński, consisting of All Friends Here (1967), Take It Easy, and Love or Leave (1977). They were portrayed by Władysław Hańcza and Wacław Kowalski, respectively. The monument was designed by Zbigniew Mikielewicz, and unveiled on 11 February 2006.

History The monument was designed by sculptor Zbigniew Mikielewicz, and unveiled on 11 February 2006. It was founded by the owners of the cinema multiplex, in front of which it was unveiled. Originally, it was planned to commemorate the 1970 comedy film The Cruise, however it was decided against, as its propagators wanted it to stand on the coast of the Vistula river.

Characteristics The monument consists of two bronze statues depicting Władysław Kargul and Kazimierz Pawlak, two main characters from the comedy film trilogy by Sylwester Chęciński, consisting of All Friends Here (1967), Take It Easy, and Love or Leave (1977). They were portrayed by Władysław Hańcza and Wacław Kowalski, respectively. The characters are depicted as seen in the scene of the film Love or Leave, in which they just arrived to Chicago, United States, and are shocked seeing American metropolis, in contrast to their small Polish village. The statue of Pawlak, on the right, is depicted holding two suitcases, while Kargul holds a chest in his right arm close to his chest. They are wearing suits and top hats. The characters are looking towards the neon sign of the cinema multiplex in fron of whych they are placed. The statues are located at the Chief Technical Organisation Square, at the corner of Chełm Road and Red Road.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Statues of Kargul and Pawlak

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Statues of Kargul and Pawlak claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In engineering, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Statues of Kargul and Pawlak before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Statues of Kargul and Pawlak ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Statues of Kargul and Pawlak

In research: Statues of Kargul and Pawlak appears in engineering research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Statues of Kargul and Pawlak in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Statues of Kargul and Pawlak is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 2006 establishments in Poland, 2006 sculptures, Bronze sculptures in Poland, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Statues of Kargul and Pawlak outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
