The author analyzes various phenomena, from the hateful rhetoric of Nazi Germany to the obfuscating newspeak of communist Poland, finding certain common characteristics. Above all, totalitarian speech in its diverse manifestations imposes an all-embracing worldview and an associated set of dichotomous divisions from an omniscient and authoritative perspective. This volume collects the work of over three decades, including essays written during the communist era and more recent pieces assessing the legacy of totalitarian ways of thinking in contemporary Poland.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: CHItem Height: 210mmItem Length: 148mmItem Weight: 550gAuthor: Michal GlowinskiGenre: HistoryBook Series: Studien zur Kulturellen und Literarischen KommunismusforschungTopic: Language & Reference, Literary Criticism, Society & Culture, Law & PoliticsContributor: Anna Artwinska (Series edited by)Release Year: 2014 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
