His novels and plays are usually discussed in the context of “peasant literature”, dealing with the problems of the identities of villages and their inhabitants in times of historical change. However, his work transcends this literary category thanks to its philosophical and anthropological importance. His books have been translated into English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Dutch, Russian, Czech, Slovak, Romanian, Bulgarian, Latvian, Lithuanian and Serbian.

  • “He Was One of Us” – Joseph Conrad As a Home Army Author
    Yearbook of Conrad Studies (Poland) Vol. 13 2018, pp. 17–29 doi: 0.4467/20843941YC.18.002.11237 “HE WAS ONE OF US” – JOSEPH CONRAD AS A HOME ARMY AUTHOR Stefan Zabierowski The University of Silesia, Katowice Abstract: The aim of this article is to show how Conrad’s fiction (and above all the novelLord Jim) influenced the formation of the ethical attitudes and standards of the members of the Polish Home Army, which was the largest underground army in Nazi-occupied Europe. The core of this army was largely made up of young people who had been born around the year 1920 (i.e. after Poland had regained her independence in 1918) and who had had the opportunity to become acquainted with Conrad’s books during the interwar years. During the wartime occupation, Conrad became the fa- vourite author of those who were actively engaged in fighting the Nazi regime, familiarizing young conspirators with the ethics of honour—the conviction that fighting in a just cause was a reward in itself, regardless of the outcome. The views of this generation of soldiers have been recorded by the writers who were among them: Jan Józef Szczepański, Andrzej Braun and Leszek Prorok. Keywords: Joseph Conrad, World War II, Poland, Polish Home Army, Home Army, Warsaw Uprising 1 In order to fully understand the extraordinary role that Joseph Conrad’s novels played in forming the ethical attitudes and standards of those Poles who fought in the Home Army—which was the largest underground resistance army in Nazi-occupied Europe—we must go back to the interwar years, during which most of the members of the generation that was to form the core of the Home Army were born, for it was then that their personalities were formed and—perhaps above all—it was then that they acquired the particular ethos that they had in common.

  • Discourse of Heresy in Polish Post-WWII Literature Herlingâ•Žs
    ACTA UNIVERSITATIS LODZIENSIS Folia Litteraria Polonica 4(55) 2019 http://dx.doi.org/10.18778/1505-9057.55.21 Margreta Grigorowa* https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4416-371X Discourse of heresy in Polish post-WWII literature Herling’s and Herbert’s heretics Heretics, stakes, and inquisitors invaded Polish literature of the second half of the 20th century. That was visible in the outputs of renowned Polish authors who en- dured the apocalypse of World War II and the dictatorships of the last century: Gustaw Herling-Grudziński (1919–2000), a prisoner of the Gulag in Yertsevo, combatant in the Warsaw Uprising, as well as Andrzej Szczypiorski (1928–2000), a prisoner of the Lager in Sachsenhausen, Zbigniew Herbert (1924–1998), a young poet in occupied Lviv, or those who survived Soviet occupation, e.g. Czesław Miłosz (1911–2004) and Jerzy Andrzejewski (1909–1983). What heretics can be found in their works? Jacques de Molay, a Knight Tem- plar burnt at the stake together with 36 other “relentless brothers”, Albigensians, Cathars, the related Bulgarian Bogomils in Herbert’s essays in the Barbarzyńca w ogrodzie1 volume: Obrona templariuszy and O albigensach, inkwizytorach i tru- badurach. Herling-Grudziński’s short stories featured the heretic Giordano Bruno and his spiritual ally the artist Caravaggio, e.g. in the short story Głęboki cień, the mysterious heretic from Bolsena in the short story Drugie przyjście, and the legendary St. Aaron, a former heretic, stealer of the Host, who by God’s miracle was saved from the stake in the short story Legenda o nawróconym pustelniku. Giordano Bruno was also featured in one of Miłosz’s key poems from 1943 entitled Campo di Fiori (Herling-Grudziński referred to it in his texts on Giordano Bruno), where the historical parallel became vivid during the nightmare with the burning * Professor, University of Veliko Turnovo St Cyril and St.

  • On Balkanism and Orientalism: Undifferentiated Patterns of Perception in Literary And
    On Balkanism and Orientalism: Undifferentiated Patterns of Perception in Literary and Critical Representations of Eastern Europe Abstract: This paper explores the extent to which Eastern Europe has been historically subject to a process of ‘othering’ in the western literary imagination; and how far the western practice of ‘Balkanism’ can be considered congruous with the wider practice of ‘Orientalism’ throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and into the twenty- first. Drawing on theoretical work by Vesna Goldsworthy and Mariia Todorova, it shows that both in fiction and literary scholarship western writers have been unable fully to conceptualise Eastern Europe, with the result that their fictional portrayals are evasive and indistinct and their literary analysis unable to define a clear object. Malcolm Bradbury’s novel Rates of Exchange (1983), Kazuo Ishiguro’s The Unconsoled (1995) and Jim Crace’s Six (20034) are explored alongside Edward Said’s Beginnings and Fredric Jameson’s Political Unconscious to show that this under-conceptualisation has continued to dominate literary representations of Eastern Europe during the late- and post- Cold War periods, thereby subjecting Said and Jameson to a rigorous critique of their own methods with regards to the western practice of ‘Balkanism’ of which they are uncritical. Keywords: Eastern Europe (portrayals of) Balkanism Malcolm Bradbury Kazuo Ishiguro Jim Crace Main Text: 1 Introduction: The Undifferentiated Otherness of Eastern Europe In a significant study of how South Eastern Europe is represented in the British literary imagination, Vesna Goldsworthy has identified a series of structural blind-spots, or aporia, within and between which the Balkans have been constructed as an ideological trope.

  • The Scientific Legacy of the 20Th Century
    the Pontifical academy of ScienceS Plenary Session on The Scientific Legacy of the 20th Century 28 October-1 November 2010 • Casina Pio IV Prologue p . 3 Programme p. 4 List of Participants p. 8 Memorandum p. 10 em ad ia c S a c i e a n i t c i i a f i r t V n m o P VatICaN CIty 2010 ertainly the Church acknowledges that “with the help of science and technol - ogy…, man has extended his mastery over almost the whole of nature”, and thus C“he now produces by his own enterprise benefits once looked for from heavenly powers” ( Gaudium et Spes , 33). at the same time, Christianity does not posit an in - evitable conflict between supernatural faith and scientific progress. the very starting- point of Biblical revelation is the affirmation that God created human beings, endowed them with reason, and set them over all the creatures of the earth. In this way, man has become the steward of creation and God’s “helper”. If we think, for example, of how modern science, by predicting natural phenomena, has contributed to the protec - tion of the environment, the progress of developing nations, the fight against epidemics, and an increase in life expectancy, it becomes clear that there is no conflict between God’s providence and human enterprise. Indeed, we could say that the work of predict - ing, controlling and governing nature, which science today renders more practicable than in the past, is itself a part of the Creator’s plan. Science, however, while giving generously, gives only what it is meant to give.
