“Fable as a document.” Re-educational contexts of German Nazi newsreels addressed to Poles (1940–1944)
In this paper, we analyse selected Polish-language Nazi newsreels from 1940–1944 in the context of the basic features of the propaganda phenomenon and in reference to other events of World War II, in particular the situation in parts of the occupied Polish territories. We argue that in the case of those newsreels, we are dealing with a practice of adult re-education of Poles – an attempt to redirect social tendencies, to show new forms of life, n…
Violence and instrumentalism. On the margins of Tyson Lewis’s Walter Benjamin’s Antifascist Education
My response to Tyson Lewis’s book concentrates on two themes, seemingly peripheral to the book’s explicit content: the pertinent question of (educational) violence and the related problem of instrumentalism. I try to tackle both of them by outlining the dispute between Walter Benjamin and Carl Schmitt. The choice of Schmitt as the background for these peripheral commentaries is not accidental. The premise of Lewis’s book is that there is a link b…

Siła kontra dominacja. W stronę hermeneutyki przemocy

W stronę hermeneutyki przemocy Artykuł jest poświęcony rekonstrukcji dwóch odmiennych sposobów rozumienia przemocy: jako siły i jako dominacji, która została przeprowadzona na podstawie analizy współczesnych interpretacji Iliady (Simone Weil) i Odysei (Theodor Adorno i Max Horkheimer). Interpretacje te posłużyły dalej jako paradygmaty służące do opisu współczesnych filozoficznych dyskursów przemocy. Esej jest osadzony metod…
Instrumentalism
The aim of the article is to posit the question whether, or under what conditions ‘instrumentalism’ can be seen as a viable target of the philosophical critique of education. Firstly, I will briefly review and compare three critical conceptions in modern philosophy that interpreted Western civilization as a form of instrumentalism, yet, at the same time, used the concept perhaps too sweepingly: Adorno and Horkheimer (instrumental reason), Heidegg…
The Reinforcement of Political Myth? Hans Blumenberg, Hannah Arendt and the History of the Twentieth Century
It seems that the first two decades of the twenty first century demonstrate political mythology to be still functioning in the political life of the West. In this context, it is interesting to view the recent publications of Hans Blumenberg's Nachlass: Prfiguration ("Prefiguration," 2014) and Rigorismus der Wahrheit ("Rigorism of Truth," 2015), as they reveal unpredicted complications for the interpretation of his philosophy of myth as well as of…
