Description
‘Affinities’, a collection of essays dedicated to Professor Tadeusz RachwaΕ, a noted literary historian and cultural critic, pioneer of the present-day cultural studies in Poland, includes texts written by his friends, colleagues, and disciples. As it turns out, even though the topics discussed by the particular authors differ from each other, the volume has a definite focus: literature and culture from the early modern times to the present, approached in ways that combine attention to the textual detail with a broad perspective of social change and the ability to use the hermeneutics of suspicion to see through various received ideas and petrified ideologies. Scholars from Poland, the UK, and the USA have demonstrated that Professor RachwaΕ attracts minds that unite critical passion and inquisitiveness with expertise in many fields of research in today's (post-)humanities.
