Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Translated from the Polish by Regina Grol-Prokopczyk. Using words, expressions, images and sounds from a variety of sources; popular magic, songs heard in her childhood, music of Bach, everyday conversations and works of great philosophers, Uszula Koziol established herself as one of the most important voices in Polish poetry. In an idiom similar to Paul Celan, Koziol takes the reader into diverse and unique topics from the world of a snowflake to the life of Circe. She is a poet with the fine sensibility of our time who has embarked on the quest for the knowledge of reality, and comments on all aspects of that reality, including the precariousness of life, relationships and humankind's survival with intensity and intelligence. A bilingual collection every serious student of 20th century poetry should have on their shelf.

Download or read book On the World and Ourselves written by Zygmunt Bauman and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-09-14 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unde malum from where does evil come? That is the question that has plagued humankind ever since Eve, seduced by the serpent, tempted Adam to taste the forbidden fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil. Throughout history the awareness of good and evil has always been linked to the awareness of choice and to the freedom and responsibility to choose this is what makes us human. But the responsibility to choose is a burden that weighs heavily on our shoulders, and the temptation to hand this over to someone else be they a demagogue or a scientist who claims to trace everything back to our genes is a tempting illusion, like the paradise in which humans have at last been relieved of the moral responsibility for their actions. In the second series of their conversations Zygmunt Bauman and Stanislaw Obirek reflect on the life challenges confronted by the denizens of the fragmented, individualized society of consumers and the form taken in such a society by the fundamental aspects of the human condition - such as human responsibility for the choice between good and evil, self-formation and self-assertion, the need for recognition or the call to empathy, mutual respect, human dignity and tolerance.
