In one of the first scholarly book in English on Miron Białoszewski (1922–1983), Joanna Niżyńska illuminates the elusive prose of one of the most compelling and challenging postwar Polish writers. Niżyńska’s study, exemplary in its use of theoretical concepts, introduces English-language readers to a preeminent voice of Polish literature. Niżyńska explores how a fusion of seemingly irreconcilable qualities, such as the traumatic and the everyday, imbues Białoszewski’s writing with its idiosyncratic appeal. Białoszewski’s A Memoir of the Warsaw Uprising (1977, revised 1991) describes the Poles’ heroic struggle to liberate Warsaw from Nazi occupation in 1944 as harrowing yet ordinary. His later prose represents everyday life permeated by traces of the traumatic. Niżyńska closely examines the topic of autobiography and homosexuality, showing how Białoszewski discloses his homosexuality but, paradoxically, renders it inconspicuous by hiding it in plain sight.

A compelling biography of the Polish painter and writer Józef Czapski that takes readers to Paris in the Roaring Twenties, to the front lines during WWII, and into the late 20th-century art world. Józef Czapski (1896–1993) lived many lives during his ninety-six years. He was a student in Saint Petersburg during the Russian Revolution and a painter in Paris in the roaring twenties. As a Polish reserve officer fighting against the invading Nazis in the opening weeks of the Second World War, he was taken prisoner by the Soviets. For reasons unknown to this day, he was one of the very few excluded from Stalin’s sanctioned massacres of Polish officers. He never returned to Poland after the war, but worked tirelessly in Paris to keep alive awareness of the plight of his homeland, overrun by totalitarian powers. Czapski was a towering public figure, but painting gave meaning to his life. Eric Karpeles, also a painter, reveals Czapski’s full complexity, pulling together all the threads of this remarkable life.

“Central Europe” is a vague and ambiguous term, more to do with outlook and a state of mind than with a firmly defined geographical region. In the immediate aftermath of the collapse of the Iron Curtain, Central Europeans considered themselves to be culturally part of the West, which had been politically handicapped by the Eastern Soviet bloc. More recently, and with European Union membership, Central Europeans are increasingly thinking of themselves as politically part of the West, but culturally part of the East. This book, with contributions from a large number of scholars from the region, explores the concept of “Central Europe” and a number of other political concepts from an openly Central European perspective. It considers a wide range of issues including politics, nationalism, democracy, and the impact of culture, art and history. Overall, the book casts a great deal of light on the complex nature of “Central Europe”.

Engaging Authority: Citizenship and Political Community aims to explore how authority is entailed in different versions of citizenship and political community. Who or what claims authority in the name of “a people,” and to what effect? What kind and scope of authority is claimed? And who is held to be part of such a people”? Engaging Authority brings together scholars from anthropology, constitutional studies, cultural studies, politics, political theory, sociology, and philosophy in a collaborative project to develop a multifaceted understanding of citizenship in political community. The volume begins with the premise that to describe or identify oneself as a citizen entails a particular relationship to authority. Citizens are understood to be members of a community which we consider “political” in that members are invoked, and may also be involved, in the business of governing. How does this relationship function? How is community invoked by those exercising authority, and in what senses do citizens partake in its exercise? In this volume, the authors explore different forms of the citizen’s relationship to authority in political community, across and beyond the variations that usually concern scholars, such as the self-governing people, nation-states, popular sovereignty, and democratic citizenship.

Интеллектуальное наследие диссидентов советского периода до сих пор должным образом не осмыслено и не оценено, хотя их опыт в текущей политической реальности более чем актуален. Предлагаемый энциклопедический проект впервые дает совокупное представление о том, насколько значимой была роль инакомыслящих в борьбе с тоталитарной системой, о масштабах и широте спектра политических практик и методов ненасильственного сопротивления в СССР и других странах социалистического лагеря. В это издание вошли биографии 160 активных участников независимой гражданской, политической, интеллектуальной и религиозной жизни в Восточной Европе 1950–1980-х. В судьбах этих людей были и тюремные сроки, и эмиграция, и принудительное лечение в психиатрических больницах, и политические триумфы. Наряду с биографическими текстами в книгу включены обширные исторические очерки о социально-политической и культурной специфике эпохи. В основе издания — перевод с польского языка первого тома Словаря диссидентов (2007), над которым совместно работали национальные центры и авторские коллективы из стран-участниц.

«Kismet è una parola turca che signifi ca “destino”. Gombrowicz la scrisse, come fosse il sigillo posto a custodia della sua esistenza e insieme la sua inevitabile deriva, nelle pagine del diario privato: Kronos. Kronos come il dio del Tempo, Crono, che divorò i propri fi gli: un titolo in assonanza con il suo ultimo romanzo, Kosmos (Cosmo); l’Ordine e il Tempo, due elementi centrali della nostra esistenza: sfuggenti, indefi nibili, spesso in antitesi. Kronos è proprio un tentativo di puntellare il Tempo: di dare un Ordine al Caos. Il suo valore risiede nel fatto che ci permette di conoscere un Gombrowicz non “in posa”, privo delle numerose maschere che amava indossare. L’autore registra il flusso della sua coscienza mescolando fatti privati e pubblici, un flusso spessodisordinato ma in cui, per esempio, gli elenchi deibrani musicali funzionano come una sorta di ossaturaalla quale si aggrappa tutto il resto. Nel “caotico” Kronos, Gombrowicz riesce a sorprendere senza risultare mai banale o scontato: è come se ci lasciasse un messaggio abbandonato in una bottiglia, consegnato in una forma non lavorata, essenziale. Il messaggio di uno scrittore geniale, a lungo non riconosciuto per il suo valore, tormentato dalle malattie e dalle ristrettezze, in lotta con il tempo che bruciava troppo rapidamente la sua vita sciupandone il desiderio dell’eterna giovinezza e frustrando le sue esuberanze; uno scrittore che seppe però trovare, oltre la disperazione, gli appigli per non affondare, regalandoci, anche con questo “diario privato”, un bizzarro lascito e una testimonianza, dal profondo, della vita che ribolle e poi si spegne.» Francesco M. CataluccioIl Saggiatore prosegue la pubblicazione del corpus delle opere di Witold Gombrowicz avviata con Cosmoe presenta per la prima volta al lettore italianoKronos: selezionato ciò che è importante, creativo,dall’inutile e dallo sterile che c’è in ogni vita,Gombrowicz costruisce il suo passato, lo sublimaattraverso la sua arte, si assegna il futuro che spetta ai grandi.

LONGLISTED FOR THE 2015 SAMUEL JOHNSON PRIZE We have come to see the Holocaust as a factory of death, organised by bureaucrats. Yet by the time the gas chambers became operation more than a million European Jews were already dead: shot at close range over pits and ravines. They had been murdered in the lawless killing zones created by the German colonial war in the East, many on the fertile black earth that the Nazis believed would feed the German people. It comforts us to believe that the Holocaust was a unique event. But as Timothy Snyder shows, we have missed basic lessons of the history of the Holocaust, and some of our beliefs are frighteningly close to the ecological panic that Hitler expressed in the 1920s. As ideological and environmental challenges to the world order mount, our societies might be more vulnerable than we would like to think. Timothy Snyder’s Bloodlands was an acclaimed exploration of what happened in eastern Europe between 1933 and 1945, when Nazi and Soviet policy brought death to some 14 million people. Black Earth is a deep exploration of the ideas and politics that enabled the worst of these policies, the Nazi extermination of the Jews. Its pioneering treatment of this unprecedented crime makes the Holocaust intelligible, and thus all the more terrifying.
