(She actually became a British agent months before the Special Operations Executive was founded in July 1940.) Binney credits Skarbek's resourcefulness and success with influencing the espionage-and-subversion organization's policy of recruiting increasing numbers of women.1 I first heard substantial accounts of Skarbek in the latter 1990s, from my father, Jozef Kasparek (1915-2002).

  • Eastern Europe, Literature, Postimperial Difference
    Form and Instability 8flashpoints The FlashPoints series is devoted to books that consider literature beyond strictly national and disciplinary frameworks, and that are distinguished both by their historical grounding and by their theoretical and conceptual strength. Our books engage theory without losing touch with history and work historically without falling into uncritical positivism. FlashPoints aims for a broad audience within the humanities and the social sciences concerned with moments of cultural emergence and transformation. In a Benjaminian mode, FlashPoints is interested in how literature contributes to forming new constellations of culture and history and in how such formations function critically and politically in the present. Series titles are available online at http://escholarship.org/uc/flashpoints. series editors: Ali Behdad (Comparative Literature and English, UCLA), Founding Editor; Judith Butler (Rhetoric and Comparative Literature, UC Berkeley), Founding Editor; Michelle Clayton (Hispanic Studies and Comparative Literature, Brown University); Edward Dimendberg (Film and Media Studies, Visual Studies, and European Languages and Studies, UC Irvine), Coordinator; Catherine Gallagher (English, UC Berkeley), Founding Editor; Nouri Gana (Comparative Literature and Near Eastern Languages and Cultures, UCLA); Susan Gillman (Literature, UC Santa Cruz); Jody Greene (Literature, UC Santa Cruz); Richard Terdiman (Literature, UC Santa Cruz) A complete list of titles is on page 222.

  • Polish Contribution to World War II - Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia 12/18/15, 12:45 AM Polish Contribution to World War II from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Polish contribution to World War II - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia 12/18/15, 12:45 AM Polish contribution to World War II From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The European theatre of World War II opened with the German invasion of Poland on Friday September 1, 1939 and the Soviet Polish contribution to World invasion of Poland on September 17, 1939. The Polish Army War II was defeated after more than a month of fighting. After Poland had been overrun, a government-in-exile (headquartered in Britain), armed forces, and an intelligence service were established outside of Poland. These organizations contributed to the Allied effort throughout the war. The Polish Army was recreated in the West, as well as in the East (after the German invasion of the Soviet Union). Poles provided crucial help to the Allies throughout the war, fighting on land, sea and air. Notable was the service of the Polish Air Force, not only in the Allied victory in the Battle of Britain but also the subsequent air war. Polish ground troops The personnel of submarine were present in the North Africa Campaign (siege of Tobruk); ORP Sokół displaying a Jolly the Italian campaign (including the capture of the monastery hill Roger marking, among others, at the Battle of Monte Cassino); and in battles following the the number of sunk or damaged invasion of France (the battle of the Falaise pocket; an airborne ships brigade parachute drop during Operation Market Garden and one division in the Western Allied invasion of Germany). Polish forces in the east, fighting alongside the Red army and under Soviet command, took part in the Soviet offensives across Belarus and Ukraine into Poland, across the Vistula and towards the Oder and then into Berlin.

This misplaced con- Tfidence was due in part to the large key space the machine provided. This brochure derives for the first time the exact number of theoretical cryptographic key settings and machine configura- tions for the Enigma cipher machine. It also calculates the number of practical key settings Allied cryptanalysts were faced with daily throughout World War II. Finally, it shows the relative contribution each component of the Enigma added to the overall strength of the machine. ULTRA [decrypted Enigma messages] was the great- est secret of World War II after the atom bomb. With the exception of knowledge about that weapon and the prob- able exception of the time and place of major operations, such as the Normandy invasion, no information was held more tightly….

In different contexts this can be defined in different ways, including the capacities for abstract thought, understanding, communication, reasoning, learning, planning, emotional intelligence and problem solving. Intelligence is most widely studied in humans, but is also observed in animals and plants. Artificial intelligence is the intelligence of machines or the simulation of intelligence in machines. Numerous definitions of and hypotheses about intelligence have been proposed since before the twentieth century, with no consensus reached by scholars. Within the discipline of psychology, various approaches to human intelligence have been adopted. The psychometric approach is especially familiar to the general public, as well as being the most researched and by far the most widely used in practical settings.[1] History of the term Intelligence derives from the Latin verb intelligere which derives from inter-legere meaning to "pick out" or discern.

  • Positivism in Poland Was Synthesized Into a National Reawakening Through the Literary Works of Boleslaw Prus During the Second Half of the Nineteenth Century
    Nolan Kinney The Positive Reawakening Of Polish Nationalism Positivism is an intellectual movement that emerged in Europe during the mid to late 19th century. This movement was a direct reaction to Romanticism and impacted what had been the country of Poland in a very unique way. Poland was partitioned by Prussia, Russia, and Austria, and by 1795 the nation that once was Poland no longer existed on the map. Positivism was a philosophy developed by Auguste Comte a Frenchman in 1856. This philosophy was adapted by Polish intellectuals, writers, poets, and politicians in hopes of using this to re-establish Poland’s national and cultural identity without the existence of the Polish nation. Positivism in Poland was synthesized into a national reawakening through the literary works of Boleslaw Prus during the second half of the nineteenth century. Prus was a journalist that turned to writing fiction describing Polish society under the influence of Positivism. He wrote a series of books that show in detail the influence of positivist thought on the different facets of society. Prus represents Polish society in the majority of works and he also includes positivist commentary and represents the conflict between Positivist thought and the Polish reality. Those books were titled, The Outpost(1886), The Doll(1889), and The Pharaoh(1895). This paper is going to examine The Doll, and The Outpost, and how Positivism impacted Polish society. Positivism was a path to promoting Polish nationalism between 1860 and 1890. In the Polish case it separated the nation from that of the people. In Poland, Positivism was based on Comte’s philosophy that all parts of society are working toward one goal.
