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 Gawlowskiâs 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...

December, 1932 In the bathroom of a Belgian hotel, a French spymaster photographs top-secret documents – the operating instructions of the cipher machine, Enigma. A few weeks later a mathematician in Warsaw begins to decipher the coded communications of the Third Reich and lays the foundations for the code-breaking operation at Bletchley Park. The co-operation between France, Britain and Poland is given the cover-name 'X, Y & Z'. December, 1942 It is the middle of World War Two. The Polish code-breakers have risked their lives to continue their work inside Vichy France, even as an uncertain future faces their homeland. Now they are on the run from the Gestapo. People who know the Enigma secret are not supposed to be in the combat zone, so MI6 devises a plan to exfiltrate them. If it goes wrong, if they are caught, the consequences could be catastrophic for the Allies. Based on original research and newly released documents, X, Y & Z is the exhilarating story of those who risked their lives to protect the greatest secret of World War Two.
Monografia zbiorowa O kondycji człowieka w polskiej literaturze najnowszej pod redakcją Damiana Kaji i Macieja Wróblewskiego jest owocem namysłu literaturoznawców z różnych ośrodków uniwersyteckich nad kategorią „kondycji człowieka” w odniesieniu do najnowszej literatury polskiej. Kategoria ta, rozwinięta w dziele Helmutha Plessnera (1892–1985), dziś już nieco zapomnianego dwudziestowiecznego niemieckiego myśliciela, jednego z twórców antropologii filozoficznej, pozwala badaczowi literatury odkrywać i analizować w tekstach obrazy człowieka jako istoty o ekscentrycznej postaci. Pojęcie ekscentryczności, wedle Plessnera, stanowi poręczne narzędzie opisu naszej dzi...
