Śród żywych duchów
"Listopad 1988 r., zaniedbana łączka na warszawskich Powązkach. Małgorzata Szejnert na każdym z pięciu symbolicznych grobów kładzie krótki list. Kartkę przyciska zniczem. Jest przekonana, że groby są puste, ale wie, że wieczorem ktoś tu przyjdzie... Dramat polskich bohaterów wojennych - rotmistrza Pileckiego, generała Fieldorfa „Nila” i innych skazanych na śmierć w Polsce Ludowej - nie kończył się z chwilą wykonania wyroków. Dla rodzin straconych to początek walki o ujawnienie prawdy o losach bliskich: synów, mężów i ojców. Śród żywych duchów to ich poruszająca historia. Małgorzata Szejnert, mimo starannie zatartych śladów, poszukuje grobów więźniów politycznych straconych w warszawskim więzieniu na Rakowieckiej. Zbiera relacje świadków i członków rodzin, ujawnia sposoby na obejście cenzury i zdobycie informacji w epoce strachu i nieufności. Dziennikarka w mistrzowski sposób łączy opowieść o epoce terroru i o końcu lat osiemdziesiątych, tworząc niezwykłą kronikę przełomu i początku demokratycznych przemian w Polsce."

Polish Migrants in European Film 1918–2017
This study explores the representation of international migration on screen and how it has gained prominence and salience in European filmmaking over the past 100 years. Using Polish migration as a key example due to its long-standing cultural resonance across the continent, this book moves beyond a director-oriented approach and beyond the dominant focus on postcolonial migrant cinemas. It succeeds in being both transnational and longitudinal by including a diverse corpus of more than 150 films from some twenty different countries, of which Roman Polański’s The Tenant, Jean-Luc Godard’s Passion and Krzysztof Kieślowski’s Trois couleurs: Blanc are the best-known examples. Engaging wi...

Zwischen Europa und Amerika
Nach einer Einschätzung von Kazimierz Dziewanowski lautet die grundlegende Frage zur polnischen Außenpolitik: „Kann man irgendjemandem vertrauen? Werden wir nicht verraten, von unseren Feinden überfallen, von den Verbünde- 1 ten im Stich gelassen, für 30 Silberlinge verkauft?“ Die polnische Außenpolitik unterlag nach 1989 einem fundamentalen W- del. Dieser betraf all ihre inneren und äußeren Parameter wie Ziele, Prinzipien und geopolitische Lage. Kaum ein anderes Land bekam das Ende des Kalten Krieges deutlicher zu spüren als Polen. Die Veränderung der geopolitischen Situation war immens: Keiner der bis 1989 an Polen angrenzenden Staaten üb- stand die Neuordnung nach dem Zusam...
