Do rąk czytelników przygotowano potężną publikację zawierającą ponad 20 tekstów. Charakter artykułów jest różny. Niektóre, zawierając elementy wspomnieniowe, mają wartość źródłową. Inne określiłbym mianem „słownikowych”. Są i ważne teksty przyczynkarskie. Owa wielowątkowość została odzwierciedlona w dobrze przemyślanym układzie monografii. W spisie treści poszeregowano artykuły tematycznie: „O PTPN”, „O działalności PTPN”, „Zbiory PTPN”, „PTPN a osobistości”, „Współpraca z innymi instytucjami”, „Varia”. W ten sposób czytelnik zainteresowany daną przestrzenią informacyjną szybko odnajdzie się we właściwym miejscu książki. Wszystkie teksty, co naturalne, łączy mianownik PTPN-u; czasami stojącego wprawdzie bardziej w tle wywodów, ale jednak obecnego. Nawet jeśli niektóre artykuły zasadniczo odnoszą się do problemów innych towarzystw, posiadają tę wartość, że wnoszą cenny element komparatystyki. Poznajemy w ten sposób podobne problemy, z którymi towarzystwa musiały, i co gorsza, dalej muszą sobie radzić. z recenzji prof. UAM dr hab. Damiana Szymczaka
A study of an exceptionally interesting primary source - the Henrykow Book - and of the local and regional world which that source reflected and helped shape. This volume mines the Henrykow Book for the information it provides about the social, political, religious, and literary contexts of medieval Europe.
From its beginnings, Polish economic thought has had a strong national character resulting from specific socio-political and economic realities. Drawing on the broader historical context, this book presents the main stages and contributions in the development of Polish economic thought from the medieval period to modern times. Focusing on economists and economic schools active within Poland, the book presents the development of Polish economic thought in the context of Polish history, economic history, sociocultural conditions, and the history of economics. The book features prominent figures such as Oskar Lange, Michał Kalecki, and Rosa Luxemburg, but the emphasis is on broader trends and ...
This volume focuses on the complex issues of long-term cultural change in the populations surrounding the Western Carpathians, with the aim of striking a balance between local cultural dynamics, subsistence economy and the alleged importance of far-reaching contacts, and communication and exchange involved in this process.
Exploring new perspectives concerning regions traditionally considered “on the margins” of Europe, this book fills a gap in current historiography through its analysis of cities, space, and economy from the High Middle Ages to the present. Markets, trade, and economy in general have formed the backbone of urban life ever since the emergence of cities and towns, but classical theorists have largely focused on developments in Western Europe. Urban research in the last few decades has advanced in many ways to supersede and correct this still influential image and to include other parts of Europe into the analytical framework. Building on these emerging methodologies, this volume pays close ...
This book examines cultural heritage law in both its public and private modalities, focusing on the search for new solutions in national legislations. Both tangible and intangible cultural heritage pose challenges for national legislation regarding the legal histories of the respective countries, obligations deriving from international law, and the independence of respective national searches for a tailored protection model. Although the concept of cultural heritage transcends civil law regulation and property rights, it must be considered when attempting to establish any coherent cultural heritage protection system. In national legislation, we can now observe an increased interest in levera...
