Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen; Leichte Verschmutzung / Farbtonveranderung. Jante to miasteczko, w ktorym zycie reguluje jedenascie opresyjnych zasad okreslajacych miejsce jednostki w spolecznosci. Prawo Jante jest w Skandynawii powszechnie znane, chociaz malo kto pamieta, ze po raz pierwszy pojawilo sie w 1933 roku w powiesci Aksela Sandemosego Uciekinier przecina swoj slad. Filip Springer wyrusza na Polnoc, zeby znalezc miejsce, ktore odcisnelo pietno na kolejnych pokoleniach Skandynawow. Ale gdzie jest Jante? Czy w dunskim Nykbing Mors, pierwowzorze miasteczka z powiesci? A moze w zagubionej posrod norweskich fiordow samotni pisarza? A gdyby okazalo sie, ze Jante nie ma nic wspolnego z geografia i tkwi w kazdym z nas? Ksiazka Springera to opowiesc o niemozliwej ucieczce od systemu, ktory nam narzucono, i o ponurym obliczu najszczesliwszych krajow swiata. Ale to takze opowiesc o swiecie rozpietym miedzy prawda a fikcja. By go poznac, Springer przekracza nie tylko granice krajow, ale i gatunkow literackich. Nie sadz, ze jestes kims Nie sadz, ze nam dorownujesz Nie sadz, ze jestes madrzejszy od nas Nie wyobrazaj sobie, ze jestes lepszy od nas Nie sadz, ze wiesz wiecej niz my Nie sadz, ze jestes kims wiecej niz my Nie sadz, ze sie do czegos nadajesz Nie wolno ci sie z nas smiac Nie sadz, ze komus na tobie zalezy Nie sadz, ze mozesz nas czegos nauczyc Myslisz, ze nic o tobie nie wiemy? Nie mysl, ze uciekniesz.…

Hardcover. Condition: As New. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen. Polska miala jeden z najlepszych systemow planowania przestrzennego w Europie, a wiele krajow podpatrywalo go i wdrazalo u siebie. Na przyklad Niemcy. Tak bylo przed wojna. Po wojnie system zostal scentralizowany. A w nowej Polsce nikt nie planuje ani centralnie ani przestrzennie. Bo planowanie przestrzenne jest nudne i sprowadza sie do ustaw, przepisow, wykresow, szkicow i terminologii. Zamiast planowania mamy wiec wszechobecny chaos. Filip Springer uparl sie jednak i postanowil znalezc w tym szalenstwie jakas metode. Nie zawazajac na zagradzajace mu droge ploty, meandrujac pomiedzy setkami billboardow, przemierzal Polske wszerz i wzdluz. Jezdzil po miastach i miasteczkach, ulicach widmach, przedmiesciach bez drog i chodnikow, przekraczal mosty nad nieistniejacymi rzekami, rozmawial z urzednikami, naukowcami, architektami i mieszkancami nowych osiedli o obiecujacych nazwach, ktore w rzeczywistosci okazaly sie miejscami wygnania. Na Slasku znalazl egipska piramide, w Jelonkach cos w rodzaju Partenonu, a pod Warszawa wenecki palac. Przy okazji okreslil tez nowa jednostke chorobowa - pasteloze. I tak z pozornie nieinteresujacego nikogo, nudnego zagadnienia powstala pasjonujaca opowiesc o kraju, w ktorym zyjemy, i ludziach, ktorzy tworza nasza rzeczywistosc. Troche straszna, ale i czasami smieszna. To historia o ladzie przestrzennym, czyli o czyms, ,o czym kazdy w Polsce slyszal, ale nikt od dawna tego nie widzial".…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Winner of Asymptote Journal's 2016 Close Approximations Translation Contest and Shortlisted for the Ryszard Kapuscinski Prize, History of a Disappearance is the fascinating true story of a small mining town in the southwest of Poland that, after seven centuries of history, disappeared.Lying at the crucible of Central Europe, the Silesian village of Kupferberg suffered the violence of the Thirty Years War, the Napoleonic Wars, and World War I. After Stalin's post-World War II redrawing of Poland's borders, Kupferberg became Miedzianka, a town settled by displaced people from all over Poland and a new center of the Eastern Bloc's uranium-mining industry. Decades of neglect and environmental degradation led to the town being declared uninhabitable, and the population was evacuated. Today, it exists only in ruins, with barely a hundred people living on the unstable ground above its collapsing mines.In this work of unsparing and insightful reportage, renowned journalist, photographer, and architecture critic Filip Springer rediscovers this small town's fascinating history. Digging beyond the village's mythic foundations and the great wars and world leaders that shaped it, Springer catalogs the lost human elements: the long-departed tailor and deceased shopkeeper; the parties, now silenced, that used to fill the streets with shouts and laughter; and the once-beautiful cemetery, with gravestones upended by tractors and human bones scattered by dogs. In Miedzianka, Springer sees a microcosm of European history, and a powerful narrative of how the ghosts of the past continue to haunt us in the present.…
