Excerpt: Szamanka (English: ) is a Polish-French-Swiss filmreleased in 1996, directed by Andrzej uawski and adapted from a screenplay by Manuela Gretkowska. The film, which was controversial upon its release in Poland, is about the obsessive relationship between an anthropology professor and a disturbed woman only known as the "Italian". The name of the film comes from the mummified shaman that is studied by the professor. In Warsaw, a student only known as the "Italian" (Polish: Woszka, played by Iwona Petry) is on the search for an apartment. The Italian, who is beautiful and a free spirit, is originally from the countryside. During her search she meets anthropology professor Micha (Bogusaw Linda), who is renting her an apartment that was occupied by his brother. The business is concluded by a violent sex scene between the two in the empty apartment. Micha is engaged with Anna (Agnieszka Wagner), an architect and daughter of his director. During excavations with his students and his younger colleague Juliuz (Pawe Delg) he finds the well-conserved body of a shaman more than two thousand years old. In the laboratory they try to determine the cause of the shaman's death, which does not seem to be natural. The life of Micha is turned upside down by the discovery of the shaman's body and his increasingly obsessive love affair with the Italian. For the Italian, he breaks with his fiancée Anna and his friends. He tries to tame the Italian, but she resists his domination, always unforeseeable and rebellious. In the laboratory, during one moment of illumination, Micha comes into ...http://booksllc.net/?id=11294399 ... Read more

Andrzej Wajda naît en 1926 d'une mère institutrice et d'un père officier. Ce dernier est tué en 1940, lors du massacre de Katyń orchestré par les soviétiques et camouflé en crime de guerre allemand. Le futur réalisateur s'engage deux ans plus tard, à 16 ans, dans la résistance contre l'occupant nazi, au sein de l'armée de l'intérieur polonaise, Armia Krajowa. À la fin de la guerre, il effectue des études de cinéma à l'Académie des beaux-arts de Cracovie, puis à Łódź dont il fréquente l'école de cinéma. Il passe à la réalisation avec Génération en 1955 où il rompt déjà avec le ton partisan des productions de l'époque. En 1972, il est appelé à présider l'Union des cinéastes polonais. Proche des idées libérales de Solidarność, il se lie d'amitié avec Lech Walesa qui le nomme au Comité des Citoyens auprès du syndicat en 1988. Il a souvent été ennuyé par la censure pour sa critique virulente des méthodes utilisées sous le stalinisme et pour l'évocation d'une Pologne en crise, aspirant à la liberté et à la démocratie; sujets qu'il traite notamment dans son diptyque L'Homme de marbre et L'Homme de fer, tourné durant les premiers événements provoqués par le syndicat Solidarność. Wajda n'en est pas moins resté une sommité artistique et u...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more

Excerpt: Stanisaw Lem (Polish pronunciation: ; 12 September 1921 27 March 2006) was a Polish writer of science fiction, philosophy and satire. He was named a Knight of the Order of the White Eagle . His books have been translated into 41 languages and have sold over 27 million copies. He is perhaps best known as the author of the 1961 novel Solaris, which has been made into a feature film three times. In 1976, Theodore Sturgeon claimed that Lem was the most widely read science-fiction writer in the world. His works explore philosophical themes; speculation on technology, the nature of intelligence, the impossibility of mutual communication and understanding, despair about human limitations and humankind's place in the universe. They are sometimes presented as fiction, but others are in the form of essays or philosophical books. Translations of his works are difficult due to passages with elaborate word formation, alien or robotic poetry and puns, multiple translated versions of his works exist. Lem was born in 1921 in Lwów, Poland (now Ukraine). He was the son of Sabina Woller and Samuel Lem, a wealthy laryngologist and former physician in the Austro-Hungarian Army. Though raised a Roman Catholic, he later became an atheist "for mor...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=26790 ... Read more
