Starlight and Stargazers
Celebrification has thrived for centuries in literature, theater, music, and other cultural spheres, as vividly illustrated by Byron, Sarah Bernhardt, and Paganini. It especially effloresced in cinema after the symbolically named Lumière brothers pioneered movies as light-projected “moving life” to be contemplated and shared in the intimate darkness of theaters. Actors and actresses such as Valentino and Garbo acquired the status of divine beings whose life on and offscreen stimulated fascination and a passionate devotion most frequently invested in religious figures. The recent explosion in social media has only amplified immeasurably the scale and intensity of that adulation. Yearning for the seemingly transcendent, fans as mere mortals seek contact with celebrities as objects of worship that, like nocturnal stars, are simultaneously remote yet accessible. Starlight and Stargazers examines the multifaceted nature and specific manifestations of film celebrification in Czechoslovakia/the Czech Republic, Poland, Soviet Russia/Russia, and Ukraine before and after 1991
Antarktyczna podróż sir Ernesta Shacketona
Wrzesień, 1914. Ernest Shackleton i 22 śmiałków rusza na podbój Antarktydy z zamiarem połączenia mórz Rossa i Wedella śladem ludzkich stóp. Po 6 tygodniach zmagań z oceanem trójmasztowiec Endurance zostaje uwięziony w paku lodowym na kolejnych 10 miesięcy. Dryfująca, niezdolna do samodzielnej żeglugi brygantyna zostaje zmiażdżona przez krę zostawiając rozbitków na pastwę antarktycznej zimy. Shackleton podejmuje szaleńczą próbę przebicia się do Południowej Georgii wpierw pieszo, następnie w szalupie ratunkowej. Alfred Lansing na podstawie dokumentów, dzienników i rozmów z uczestnikami odtwarza przebieg wyprawy dzień po dniu dając świadectwo ludzkiej determinacji i bohaterstwa, które i wówczas i dzisiaj jest prawie niemożliwe do powtórzenia.

The Same Solitude
"Still, we have the same solitude, the same journeys and searching, and the same favorite turns in the labyrinth of literature and history."—Boris Pasternak to Marina TsvetaevaOne of the most compelling episodes of twentieth-century Russian literature involves the epistolary romance that blossomed between the modernist poets Marina Tsvetaeva and Boris Pasternak in the 1920s. Only weeks after Tsvetaeva emigrated from Russia in 1922, Pasternak discovered her poetry and sent her a letter of praise and admiration. Tsvetaeva's enthusiastic response began a decade-long affair, conducted entirely through letters. This correspondence-written across the widening divide separating Soviet Russia from...
