  • Publisher: Random House

In light of Russia's aggressive 2022 invasion of Ukraine, Goodbye, Eastern Europe is a crucial, elucidative read, a sweeping epic chronicling a thousand years of strife, war, and bloodshed, from pre-Christianity to the fall of Communism—illuminating the remarkable cultural significance and richness of a place perpetually lost to the margins of history "Eastern Europe" has gone out of fashion since the fall of the Soviet Union. Ask someone today, and they might tell you that Estonia is in the Baltics or Scandinavia, that Slovakia is in Central Europe, and that Croatia is in the eastern Adriatic or the Balkans. In fact, Eastern Europe is a place that barely exists at all, except in cultural ...

The First Enigma Codebreaker

The First Enigma Codebreaker is the story of a man who started a revolution in cryptology and the conflict between man and machine. This is a powerful story of the life of Marian Rejewski and how history can affect individual lives, presented to the public for the first time. This examination of how Marian Rejewski changed the course of cryptology is of great interest to everyone from the avid historian to Hollywood film producers and all those in-between. As Gawlowski’s biography shows, Rejewski was an unassuming man who used his mathematical, skills as well as his extensive linguistic abilities, to start cracking the Enigma code before passing the baton on to the now renowned Alan Tur...

In the wake of World War II, the arts and culture of Europe became a site where the devastating events of the 20th century were remembered and understood. Exploring one of the most integral elements of the cinematic experience—music—the essays in this volume consider the numerous ways in which post-war European cinema dealt with memory, trauma and nostalgia, showing how the music of these films shaped the representation of the past. The contributors consider films from the United Kingdom, Poland, the Soviet Union, France, Italy, Germany, Sweden, Austria, and the Netherlands, providing a diverse and well-rounded understanding of film music in the context of historical memory. Memory is of...

동유럽에 대한 편견에 건네는 작별인사이자 동유럽의 정체성을 찾아가는 천년의 여정 전쟁, 혼란, 후진성 등을 연상시키는 ‘동유럽’이란 말은 동유럽 주민 스스로도 사용하기 꺼리는 용어가 되었다. 하지만 이는 서유럽 중심주의에 기반한 편견으로, 《굿바이, 동유럽》은 이러한 잘못된 고정관념을 깨고 동유럽 고유의 정체성을 보여주고자 나온 책이다. 동유럽은 수많은 민족과 종교가 혼재하고, 오늘날 20여 개 나라가 복잡한 경계를 이루며 존재하는 지역이다. 그런 만큼 이 지역의 역사를 한 권에 담아내기란 여간 어려워 ...
