Ideologia antysemicka 1848-1914
Intended for use in educational institutions, presents a collection of texts from the years 1848-1914 concerning the "Jewish question", both antisemitic material and works in defense of the Jews written by assimilated Jews or by Poles. Contains excerpts from books, pamphlets, and articles published in the press - by Józef Ignacy Kreszewski, Eliza Orzeszkowa, Teofil Merunowicz, Jan Jeleński, Aleksander Świętochowski, and others. The texts are divided into four categories: accusations against the Jewish religion, against Jewish professional and economic activities, cultural differences and the slow progress in assimilation, and a specific Jewish enmity toward Poles and their national traditions. Pp. 7-18 contain a preface by Żbikowski, in which he surveys the main political and economic problems of the period and analyzes the specificity of antisemitism in Poland.

New Directions in the History of the Jews in the Polish Lands
This volume is made up of essays first presented as papers at the conference held in May 2015 at POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews in Warsaw. It is divided into two sections. The first deals with museological questions--the voices of the curators, comments on the POLIN museum exhibitions and projects, and discussions on Jewish museums and education. The second examines the current state of the historiography of the Jews on the Polish lands from the first Jewish settlement to the present day. Making use of the leading scholars in the field from Poland, Eastern and Western Europe, North America, and Israel, the volume provides a definitive overview of the history and culture of one of the most important communities in the long history of the Jewish people.
The Jews, the Holocaust, and the Public
This book explores the work and legacy of Professor David Cesarani OBE, a leading British scholar and expert on Jewish history who helped to shape Holocaust research, remembrance and education in the UK. It is a unique combination of chapters produced by researchers, curators and commemoration activists who either worked with and/or were taught by the late Cesarani. The chapters in this collection consider the legacies of Cesarani’s contribution to the discipline of history and the practice of public history. The contributors offer reflections on Cesarani’s approach and provide new insights into the study of Anglo-Jewish history, immigrants and minorities and the history and public legacies of the Holocaust.
Stepan Bandera: The Life and Afterlife of a Ukrainian Nationalist
"The Life and Afterlife of a Ukrainian Nationalist" is the first comprehensive and scholarly biography of the Ukrainian far-right leader Stepan Bandera and the first in-depth study of his political cult.

The book shows w...

The Holocaust Bystander in Polish Culture, 1942-2015
This book concerns building an idealized image of the society in which the Holocaust occurred. It inspects the category of the bystander (in Polish culture closely related to the witness), since the war recognized as the axis of self-presentation and majority politics of memory. The category is of performative character since it defines the roles of event participants, assumes passivity of the non-Jewish environment, and alienates the exterminated, thus making it impossible to speak about the bystanders’ violence at the border between the ghetto and the ‘Aryan’ side. Bystanders were neither passive nor distanced; rather, they participated and played important roles in Nazi plans. Start...
