An exploration of the history and significance of the Palace of Culture and Science in Warsaw, Poland. The Palace of Culture and Science is a massive Stalinist skyscraper that was “gifted” to Warsaw by the Soviet Union in 1955. Framing the Palace’s visual, symbolic, and functional prominence in the everyday life of the Polish capital as a sort of obsession, locals joke that their city suffers from a “Palace of Culture complex.” Despite attempts to privatize it, the Palace remains municipally owned, and continues to play host to a variety of public institutions and services. The Parade Square, which surrounds the building, has resisted attempts to convert it into a money-making commercial center. Author Michal Murawski traces the skyscraper’s powerful impact on twenty-first century Warsaw; on its architectural and urban landscape; on its political, ideological, and cultural lives; and on the bodies and minds of its inhabitants. The Palace Complex explores the many factors that allow Warsaw’s Palace to endure as a still-socialist building in a post-socialist city. “The most brilliant book on a building in many years, making a case for Warsaw’s once-loathed Palace of Culture and Science as the most enduring and successful legacy of Polish state socialism.” —Owen Hatherley, The New Statesman’s“Books of the Year” list (UK) “An ambitious anthropological biography of Poland’s tallest and most infamous building, the Palace of Culture and Science in Warsaw. . . . It is a truly fascinating story that challenges a tenacious stereotype, and Murawski tells it brilliantly, judiciously layering literatures from multiple disciplines, his own ethnographic work, and personal anecdotes.” —Patryk Babiracki, H-Net History

Jahrzehntelange Freiflächen als Ausdruck des Ringens der kommunistischen Machthaber der Volksrepublik Polen um Legitimation: Die Autorin untersucht an zwei historischen, bemerkenswert unbebauten Plätzen im Zentrum Warschaus den Konflikt um revolutionären Neuanfang, nationale Traditionen und städtebauliche Modernisierung. Dieser Fokus bringt kontroverse, erstaunlich öffentliche Debatten zwischen Experten, Politik und Gesellschaft ans Licht.

Offering a rare glimpse into the lives of those who lived through the German occupation of Poland's capital, this important ethnography explores how elderly residents of Warsaw recollect, narrate, and commemorate their experiences, thus showing how the cultural legacies of the occupation reveal themselves in contemporary Polish society. The individuals who are the focus of this study, all long-time residents of the Warsaw neighborhood Zoliborz, responded to the daily deprivations and brutality of the German occupation by joining branches of the Polish underground, ultimately participating in the Warsaw Uprising of 1944—during which their neighborhood was burned, but not destroyed—as soldiers, couriers, and medics. Using life histories and ethnographic fieldwork, Tucker examines the ways that her informants recovered from the rupture of war, arguing that this process was connected to efforts to rebuild the city itself. Remembering Occupied Warsaw makes an important contribution to studies of collective memory. A moving work of oral history, this book will appeal to scholars and students of anthropology, sociology, and East European studies, as well as general readers interested in Polish history.

Boundaries-physical, political, social, religious, and cultural-were a key feature of life in medieval and early modern Poland, and this volume focuses on the ways in which these boundaries were respected, crossed, or otherwise negotiated. It throws new light on the contacts between Jews and Poles, including the vexed question of conversion and the tensions it aroused. The collected articles also discuss relations between the various elements of Jewish society-the wealthy and the poor, the educated and the uneducated, and the religious and the lay elites, considering too contacts between Jews in Poland and those in Germany and elsewhere. Classic studies by such eminent scholars as Meir Ba?aban, Jacob Goldberg, and Moshe Rosman provide a foil for new research by Hanna Zaremska and David Frick, as well as Adam Teller, Magda Teter, Elisheva Carlebach, Jurgen Heyde, and Adam Ka'zmierczyk. Taken together, the contributions on this central theme help redefine the Jewish history of pre-modern Poland. As ever, the New Views section examines a wide variety of other topics. These include accusations of ritual murder in nineteenth-century Poland; the Russian Jewish integrationist politician Mikhail Morgulis; the attitude of Boles?aw Prus towards Jewish assimilation and his relationship with the Jewish journalist Nahum Sokolow; women in the Mizrahi movement in Poland; Polish patriotism among Jews; the impact of the first Soviet occupation of 1939-41 on Polish-Jewish relations; how the war affected the views of Julian Tuwim and Antoni S?onimski; the shtetl in the work of American Jewish writers Allen Hoffman and Jonathan Safran Foer; and the initial Polish response to Jan Gross's Fear.

Der Wiederaufbau des von den Nationalsozialisten völlig zerstörten Warschau liegt inzwischen über 60 Jahre zurück. Warschau ist wie Phönix aus der Asche auferstanden und gibt Zeugnis über eine sehr schwierige politische Epoche. Der Wiederaufbau ist unter der Herrschaft kommunistischer Machthaber erfolgt: Die wieder aufgebaute Altstadt ist daher einerseits als sozialistische Arbeitersiedlung angelegt, andererseits ist ein historischer Aufbau vorgenommen worden. Der Wiederaufbau von Warschau wird im Hinblick auf die erfolgte Abweichung von der Theorie der Denkmalpflege in der Wissenschaft stark kritisiert; es wird daher dem Wiederaufbau im Ergebnis jede denkmalpflegerische Qualität abgesprochen. Die für die Warschauer Altstadt verwendeten Label wie "Phönix aus der Asche", "denkmalpflegerische Fälschung", "Attrapolis", "verwirklichte Vision", "der große Bluff", "gebaute Geschichtsfiktion" und auch andere negative Wertungen verstärken die Neugier, dieses Projekt vertieft zu erforschen und gerade auch auf seine denkmalpflegerische Qualität zu überprüfen. Die vorliegende Dissertation setzt sich insbesondere mit dieser Kritik auseinander und kommt zu dem Ergebnis, dass der Wiederaufbau von Warschau im Spannungsfeld von denkmalpflegerischen Prinzipien, politischer Indienstnahme und gesellschaftlichen Erwartungen stattgefunden hat. Es wird die großartige Arbeit der beteiligten Denkmalpfleger gewürdigt und heraus gearbeitet, dass Polen seinen ganz eigenen Weg gefunden hat, der unter den seinerzeit schwierigen politischen Rahmenbedingungen kaum anders gegangen werden konnte
