The Dilemmas of Dissidence in East-Central Europe

Discusses one of the major currents leading to the fall of communism. Falk examines the intellectual dissident movements in Poland, Czechoslovakia and Hungary from the late 1960s through to 1989. In spite of its historic significance, no other comprehensive survey has appeared on the subject. In addition to the huge list of written sources from samizdat works to recent essays, Falks sources include interviews with many personalities of those events as well as videos and films (including Oscar winners).

"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."

When Nationalism Began to Hate

Pp. 37-42, 161-167, 176-182, and 227-326 deal with Jews. Argues that Polish nationalism did not inevitably lead to antisemitism. Romantic nationalism ca. 1830-63 was inclusive, displaying openness toward Jews. After the uprising of 1863, when antisemitism was temporarily silenced, positivism was influential among the Polish intelligentsia. This movement has been considered philosemitic, tending toward liberalism and allowing for Jews to be assimilated, i.e. "civilized" by the development of history. In the 1880s Jan Jelenski was the first Pole to refer to himself as an antisemite, but he was isolated among the intelligentsia. His ideas then became influential as antisemitism increased in all spheres and forms. The National Democrats lost hope in history, seeing the world as an arena of the struggle for survival. They considered the Jews unassimilable and dangerous parasites who had to be conquered or exterminated.

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...
