The Speaking Lion. Essay on the Verbal Limits in the Expression of Human Experience

Lew, który mówi. Esej o granicach językowego wyrazu doświadczenia

Author(s): Paweł Majewski / Language(s): Polish

Keywords: experience; literature; language; speaking; voice; Lebenswelt; Minotaur; Howard Phillips Lovecraft; Stanisław Lem

The book is devoted to the issue of alienation. The author argues that the linguistic and textual perspective in which a human perceives reality makes its numerous and various manifestations be recognized as inaccessible to man and excluded from the possibility of establishing the communication relation. He discusses the ways of expressing some extreme, often boundary experiences by means of the literary language used in the European and American 20th-century prose. In the analysis, cultural, anthropological, literary and psychoanalytical tools are used.

History and memory

Historia i pamięć

Author(s): Jacques Le Goff / Language(s): Polish

Keywords: history; history theory; memory

Le Goff presents his own ideas and other contemporary concepts of history. He deliberates on the theory of history and historiography, inscribing their issues in the history of ideological and scientific disputes. He looks for continuity and similarities in the transformations of historical knowledge throughout the history of civilization. This book preceded one of the most important discussions today - the debate on memory and history. Le Goff was actively involved in this discussion until his death, contributing to a better understanding of the story itself. Without Jacques Le Goff, it is impossible to imagine modern historiography [...], he not only writes about fascinating things, but he does it in an interesting way, ensuring that the recipient of his books is anyone interested in history, not just a professional historian (From the Introduction to the Polish edition).

For the first time the publication appeared in 1989 in the prestigious series „Themes in the Social Sciences” published by Cambridge University Press.

Julian Ochorowicz's Self-Economies of Writing. Everyday Writing and Research Practices of the Psychologist

Autoekonomie zapisu Juliana Ochorowicza. Codzienne praktyki piśmienne i badawcze psychologa

Author(s): Agnieszka Sobolewska / Language(s): Polish

Keywords: Julian Ochorowicz; self-economies of writing; psychology; writing practices; introscpection

The book is the first attempt to comprehensively examine and describe the daily writing practices of a Polish psychologist Julian Ochorowicz (1850-1917). More than one hundred notebooks of the scientist, now stored in the archives of the library of the Ossoliński Institute in Wrocław, constitute an extraordinary and so far unexplored source of knowledge about his intimate writing practices. The author proves that the method of introspection, crucial for the psychologist and understood as constantly repeated turning towards oneself, made it possible for Ochorowicz to choose his own research path and, consequently, to abandon the well-trodden paths of scientific development.
