Body Memory, Metaphor and Movement
Body Memory, Metaphor and Movement is an interdisciplinary volume with contributions from philosophers, cognitive scientists, and movement therapists. Part one provides the phenomenologically grounded definition of body memory with its different typologies. Part two follows the aim to integrate phenomenology, conceptual metaphor theory, and embodiment approaches from the cognitive sciences for the development of appropriate empirical methods to address body memory. Part three inquires into the forms and effects of therapeutic work with body memory, based on the integration of theory, empirical findings, and clinical applications. It focuses on trauma treatment and the healing power of movement. The book also contributes to metaphor theory, application and research, and therefore addresses metaphor researchers and linguists interested in the embodied grounds of metaphor. Thus, it is of particular interest for researchers from the cognitive sciences, social sciences, and humanities as well as clinical practitioners.

The Italian Campaign: One Soldier's Story of a Forgotten War
Merriam Press World War 2 Memoir. As school children, most Americans learned about Wold War II and the attack on Pearl Harbor, the D-Day invasion of Normandy, the raising of the flag on Iwo Jima. But few people know much about the Italian Campaign during that war. Of all the western fronts in World War II, the Italian campaign cost the most lives. One of its survivors, Albert DeFazio, didn't like to talk about his experiences as an American soldier in World War II, but he was also concerned that so little was known about the suffering and death in Italy. It took Albert decades to be able to describe his experiences in World War II - memories that still haunt him. Now, after seventy years, Albert DeFazio has told his story of the war he cannot forget. This new, expanded edition, brings Albert's story to life with new material and images of Scenes from a Forgotten War. 72 photographs and illustrations, 1 map.
Szlak Kazimierz dwóch księżyców. Śladami Marii i Jerzego Kuncewiczów w Kazimierzu Dolnym.
Żaden pisarz nie rozsławił Kazimierza Dolnego tak jak uczyniła to Maria Kuncewiczowa. Związana z miasteczkiem nad Wisłą przez kilkadziesiąt lat była obserwatorką i uczestniczką zarówno życia artystycznego i codziennej egzystencji mieszkańców. Kuncewiczowa opisywała tutejsze realia społeczne, a także urodę pejzażu i architektury na kartach opowiadań, powieści, szkiców i wspomnień umiejętnie łącząc fakty z fikcją literacką. Szlak Kuncewiczów umożliwi turystom odwiedzenie miejsc, które są w różnym stopniu związane z życiem i twórczością pisarki oraz postaciami wykreowanymi na kartach jej książek. W przewodniku, który opisuje 12 wybranych lokalizacji, zostały uwzględnione opinie i spostrzeżenia jakie Maria Kuncewiczowa utrwaliła na kartach cyklu 20 opowiadań pod wspólnym tytułem "Dwa księżyce" oraz wspomnieniowego utworu literackiego "Listy do Jerzego".
The Idea of Galicia
Galicia was created at the first partition of Poland in 1772 and disappeared in 1918. Yet, in slightly over a century, the idea of Galicia came to have meaning for both the peoples who lived there and the Habsburg government that ruled it. Indeed, its memory continues to exercise a powerful fascination for those who live in its former territories and for the descendants of those who emigrated out of Galicia. The idea of Galicia was largely produced by the cultures of two cities, Lviv and Cracow. Making use of travelers' accounts, newspaper reports, and literary works, Wolff engages such figures as Emperor Joseph II, Metternich, Leopold von Sacher-Masoch, Ivan Franko, Stanisław Wyspiański, Tadeusz "Boy" Żeleński, Isaac Babel, Martin Buber, and Bruno Schulz. He shows the exceptional importance of provincial space as a site for the evolution of cultural meanings and identities, and analyzes the province as the framework for non-national and multi-national understandings of empire in European history.
