Consciousness and Loneliness: Theoria and Praxis
Current research claims loneliness is passively caused by external conditions: environmental, cultural, situational, and even chemical imbalances in the brain and hence avoidable. In this book, the author argues that loneliness is actively constituted by acts of reflexive self-consciousness (Kant) and transcendent intentionality (Husserl) and is, therefore, unavoidable. This work employs a historical, conceptual, and interdisciplinary approach (philosophy, psychology, literature, sociology, etc.) criticizing both psychoanalysis and neuroscience. The book pits materialism, mechanism, determinism, empiricism, phenomenalism, behaviorism, and the neurosciences against dualism, both subjective an...

Dorpatczycy. Polscy studenci na Uniwersytecie Dorpackim w latach 1802–1918 i ich dalsze losy. Słownik biograficzny. Tom II: I–M
Przedmiotem niniejszej książki są polscy studenci na Uniwersytecie Dorpackim w latach 1802–1918 i ich dalsze losy. Uniwersytet został utworzony w 1802 r. przez cara Aleksandra I, a w 1918 r. został ostatecznie zamknięty niemiecki Uniwersytet, na którego miejscu powstał w roku następnym zupełnie nowy – Uniwersytet Tartuski z estońskim językiem wykładowym, istniejący do chwili obecnej.

The Shtetl
"There is no possibility of entering the world of Yiddish, its literature and culture, without understanding what the shtetl was, how it functioned, and what tensions charged its existence. Whether idealized or denigrated, evaluated as the site of memory or mined for historical data, scrutinized as a socio-economic phenomenon or explored as the mythopoetics of a rich literature, the shtetl was the heart of Eastern European Jewry. The papers published in this volume - most of them presented at the second Mendel Friedman International Conference on Yiddish organized by the Oxford European Humanities Research Centre and the Oxford Institute for Yiddish Studies (July 1999) - re-examines the structure, organization and function of numerous small market towns that shaped the world of Yiddish. The different perspectives from which these studies view the shtetl trenchently re-evaluate common preconceptions, misconceptions and assumptions, and offer new insights that are challenging as they are informative."
