Culture as Verb: Probes into the New Humanities
ISBN: 9783631874554 / Angielski / Twarda / 2023 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The book deals with what the author calls the new humanities: a broad and diversified front of orientations, directions, and turns grouped around five major currents: the digital humanities, engaged humanities, cognitive humanities, art-based research, and posthumanities. What links these approaches is their opposition toward the principles of the modern theory of humanistic cognition, which appears to be immaterial, external, impersonal, static, and neutral. Against this model, the new humanities posit a different type of cognition: embodied, penetrating the interior of the studied field,...

«Phaedra» - Ethics of Emotions in the Tragedies of Euripides, Seneca and Racine: Translated by Adriana Grzelak-Krzymianowska
ISBN: 9783631633052 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 206 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Emotions as the early form of knowledge about the surrounding world constitute a necessary component of the human psyche. Nevertheless, through the ages of the development of mankind, the emotional aspect was often regarded as a dispensable part of human nature, which should be fully ruled by reason. Despite the general opinion about the necessary control of reason over emotions, the possible participation of the latter in the human decision making processes was taken into consideration already in Antiquity. The dealing with the ethical aspect of emotions was one of the prevailing issues in...

World Under Revision: The Poetry of Wislawa Szymborska
ISBN: 9783631676042 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the entirety of Wislawa Szymborska's poetic oeuvre. The author employs in-depth historical reflection on Szymborska's beginnings to reveal that - without describing her post-war beginnings and reflecting on her early entanglement in socialist realist newspeak - Szymborska's mature anti-dogmatic attitude will remain unclear. The book shows how Szymborska's rhetoric and stylistics - figures of reservation, negation, contradiction, tautology, and repetition - are closely connected with the construction of the poetic world and affect the shape of her...

«A World Apart» by Gustaw Herling: Translated by Agnieszka Kolakowska
ISBN: 9783631629215 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Gustaw Herling's A World Apart is one of the most important books about Soviet camps and communist ideology in the Stalinist period. First published in English in 1951 and translated into many languages, it was relatively unknown till Solzhenitsyn's The Gulag Archipelago in the 1970s. However, the narrative of the author's experience in the Jertsevo gulag was highly appreciated by Bertrand Russell, Albert Camus, Jorge Semprun and others. In this first monograph on Herling's fascinating life, Bolecki discusses hitherto unknown documents from the writer's archive in Naples. His...

Clifford Geertz's Interpretive Anthropology: Between Text, Experience and Theory
ISBN: 9783631657751 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Over the last decades Clifford Geertz' interpretive anthropology has played an important role in the field of socio-cultural anthropology. The study presents the critical reception of his thoughts in Western countries and Polish anthropology. Interpretive anthropology is based on the category of interpretation and the concept of thick description: the assumed indexical nature of reality and the possibility of unraveling its order through semiotic analysis has influenced the epistemological reflection in anthropology, the approach to theory, fieldwork and the research process.

The Persona of Czeslaw Milosz: Authorial Poetics, Critical Debates, Reception Games
ISBN: 9783631762042 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The Persona of Czeslaw Milosz considers the poetry of Milosz in the innovative light of world literature and comparative literary studies. The author employs critical debates about Milosz in American and English literature to reshape the image of his reception. The book masterfully elaborates Milosz's poetics of perspectivism with a new method of analysis based on the category of authorial persona-between reception, poetics, and close-reading-separate from the literary persona. Each chapter encapsulates introductory information about Polish literature and moves beyond the horizon of Western...

«Milosz Like the World»: Poet in the Eyes of Polish Literary Critics
ISBN: 9783631626719 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 402 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Czeslaw Milosz, poet, literary critic, essayist and Nobel Laureate, is a familiar person to the Anglophone literary community. But American and British critics in the main are not very competent in the intimate features of Polish literary culture and have no access to the Polish language. This volume presents some of the most penetrating commentaries on Milosz's oeuvre by Polish critics. They illuminate both intrinsic poetic matters, such as the verse structure or the genre tradition, and the specific historic background of his poems, such as life under Nazi occupation. This comprehensive...

Literature of Consciousness: Samuel Becket - Subject - Negativity
ISBN: 9783631627273 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The questions the writer Samuel Beckett posed in his dramas, his prose and his poetry are the central questions asked by the most outstanding thinkers of modernity. Samuel Beckett, therefore, is the central figure in this book, but he is not alone. This study is not only a precise literary analysis, but it also traces transformations in terms of subjectivity and tries to conceptualize them. It universalizes the issues that emerge from the friction between the consciousness and the world, or, in other words, from the history of the struggle between the modern subject and that which negates:...

The Language of Polish Modernism
ISBN: 9783631653425 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 204 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This book debunks the myth of Polish Modernist literature as rooted in rash, immediate expression. The author compares programmatic statements on language by turn-of-the-century writers such as Waclaw Berent, Boleslaw Lesmian, Stanislaw Brzozowski or Karol Irzykowski with notions deduced from their literary works. He demonstrates that these writers' linguistic self-consciousness informs their implicitly self-reflexive texts and sheds light on their values and characteristic qualities. The author treats Modernist literature itself as a sort of "language" - a distinct entity that emerged...
