Cultural Studies Review
Thinking and writing about the past, challenging what 'history' might be and how it could appear is an ongoing interest of this journal and an ongoing (sometimes contentious) point of connection between cultural studies and history. The shifts in how we research and write the past is no simple story of accepted breakthroughs that have become the new norms, nor is it a story where it is easy to identify what the effects of cultural studies thinking on the discipline of history has been. History has provided its own challenges to its own practices in a very robust way, while the cultural studies has challenged what the past is and how it might be rendered from a wide ranging set of ideas and modes of representation that have less to do with specific disciplinary arguments than responses to particular modes (textual, filmic, sonic), particular sites (nations, Indigenous temporalities, sexuality, literature, gender) and perhaps a greater willingness to accentuate the political in the historical.
Oral History
Oral History: Challenges of Dialogue addresses oral history from two perspectives. The first is the perspective of oral history as dialoguing, the second is the presentation of concrete situations, research, persons, and their own stories as built on the solid ground of discourse and within a concrete context.
The Politics of Memory in Postwar Europe
Comparative case studies of how memories of World War II have been constructed and revised in France, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Poland, Italy, and the USSR (Russia).
Adam Mickiewicz i Rosjanie
Choć mogłoby się wydawać, że tematyka związków Adama Mickiewicza z Rosjanami jest już wyeksploatowana, to zawartość prezentowanej monografii i jej interdyscyplinarny charakter wyraźnie temu przeczą. Przygotowane w nowatorskim ujęciu badawczym kolejne rozdziały książki przybliżają zapomniane bądź nieznane wręcz fakty dotyczące wielkiego pisarza – jego relacji z Rosjanami, recepcji jego dzieł w Rosji w XIX i XX wieku, a także problematyki rosyjskiej w dorobku Mickiewicza i jej znaczenia. Szczególnym i godnym podkreślenia walorem monografii jest różnorodna metodologia poszczególnych tekstów wynikająca ze specyfiki dyscypliny reprezentowanej przez autorów, któr...

Aberrant
The remarkable debut novel from Marek Sindelka, Aberrant is a multifaceted work that mixes and mashes together a variety of genres and styles to create a heady concoction of crime story, horror story (inspired by the Japanese tradition of kaidan), ecological revenge fantasy, and Siberian shamanism. Nothing is what it seems. What appears to be human is actually a shell occupied by an alien spirit, or demon, and what appears to be an unassuming plant is an aggressive parasite that harbors a poisonous substance within, or manifests itself as an assassin, a phantom with no real substance who pursues his victims across Europe and through a post-apocalyptic Prague ravaged by floods. The blind see,...

A cultural history of media that were "new media" in the eighteenth, nineteenth, and twentieth centuries.
Introduction to Supramolecular Chemistry
A new rapidly progressing field on the crossroads among chemistry, biochemistry, physics and technology - supramolecular chemistry - has just emerged. You have to be involved, to know what's going on in this domain and to take part in the development. This book will show you in a condensed form exciting phenomena unthinkable within the realm of classical organic chemistry (for example, alkali metal anions or cyclobutadiene stable for month at room temperature) that not only provide the basis for revolutionizing numerous branches of industry but also improve our understanding of the functioning of living organisms and of the origin of life. Designing supramolecular systems with desired proper...
