Polish River Basins and Lakes – Part I
This book offers a comprehensive review of the current environmental conditions and chemical changes in Polish surface waters. Poland is situated in an area that was covered by glaciations in the distant past. The subsequent periods of glacial advance and retreat produced a continuous rejuvenation of the landscape, and the discharge of surplus water from this area was constantly transformed by morphological, climatic and hydrological changes. Written by expert contributors, the book’s respective chapters address the impact of current climatic conditions on the functioning of surface water reservoirs in Poland, while also exploring the country’s hydrographic and hydrological network and the trophic state of its rivers and lakes, their eutrophication and threats. Particular attention is paid to sources of pollution, above all, the chemical pollution of water and sediments. Together with the companion book Polish River Basins and Lakes – Part II: Biological Status and Water Management, it provides students, environmental chemists, biologists, geologists, hydrologists and surface waters managers with authoritative information on Poland’s current environmental status.
Polish River Basins and Lakes – Part II
This book reviews the latest research and developments concerning the biodiversity and biocontamination assessment of aquatic ecosystems in Poland. The authors present expert analyses of the current biological status of Polish surface waters, and examine a broad range of elements related to aquatic ecosystems, including macrophytes, phytoplankton, zooplankton and macroinvertebrates, microorganisms, fish, and selected invasive aquatic species. A set of conservation and restoration practices, and a review of protected sites within the Polish basins and catchment areas, are also provided. This book and the companion volume Polish River Basins and Lakes – Part I: Hydrology and Hydrochemistry offer valuable resources for students, environmental chemists, biologists, geologists, hydrologists and surface waters managers interested in the environmental conditions of Poland’s surface waters.

The Ethics of Witnessing
Winner, 2015 USC Book Award in Literary and Cultural Studies, for outstanding monograph published on Russia, Eastern Europe or Eurasia in the fields of literary and cultural studies The Ethics of Witnessing investigates the reactions of five important Polish diaristswriters—Jaroslaw Iwaszkiewicz, Maria Dabrowska, Aurelia Wylezynska, Zofia Nalkowska, and Stanislaw Rembek—during the period when the Nazis persecuted and murdered Warsaw’s Jewish population. The responses to the Holocaust of these prominent prewar authors extended from insistence on empathic interaction with victims to resentful detachment from Jewish suffering. Whereas some defied the dehumanization of the Jews and endeavo...

Kowalska. Ta od Dąbrowskiej
Powieściopisarka, nowelistka, redaktorka. Żona Jerzego, partnerka Marii Dąbrowskiej, matka Tuli. Anna Kowalska była osobą niezwykłej energii i temperamentu, błyskotliwą i rozległych horyzontów intelektualistką, przewrotną i władczą indywidualnością. Do swojej twórczości zawsze odnosiła się jednak krytycznie, ale pisać nie przestawała. Praca literacka była jej jedynym zawodowym wyborem i celem. Wyjątkowość twórczego talentu Kowalskiej można odnaleźć bez wątpienia w prowadzonej od 1940 roku niemającej podobnego przykładu w historii literatury polskiej korespondencji z Marią Dąbrowską. Burzliwy, głęboki, długoletni związek dwóch pisarek porusza, intryguj...
Modernizm polski
Modernizm polski Kazimierza Wyki stanowi zbiór artykułów wybitnego historyka literatury na temat stylu i światopoglądu pokolenia Młodej Polski, jak również samej kategorii pokolenia literackiego oraz niektórych ważnych z punktu widzenia odrębności epoki dzieł (Próchna Berenta i Pałuby Irzykowskiego). Artykuły powstawały przez wiele lat, część tekstów była zebrana w tom gotowy do wydania tuż przed wybuchem wojny w 1939 r. Po latach badacz uzupełnił je o aneksy odnoszące się do poszczególnych kwestii, a także włączył do swych rozważań za zgodą autora polemiczne studium Henryka Markiewicza Młoda Polska i „izmy”. Zbiór stanowi ważne kompendium wiedzy na temat epoki Młodej Polski, pomaga uzasadnić i uszczegółowić stosowane wobec niej nazewnictwo (modernizm, neoromantyzm, dekadentyzm), pokazując ją zarazem w kontekście europejskich zjawisk literackich.
