During the thirty-five years of his activity in film, theatre or television, his work, whether strong or weak, always arouses strong emotions and provokes intense debates in the media. His films deal with historical and political issues concerning Polish character and the nature of political power. Controversial, painful, stimulating and cinematically beautiful, they never fail to fully engage the spectator. This is particularly true for his major political films, which form the basis of the study. Applying Bakhtin's concept of dialogism, the author shows how a creative interaction between the image on the screen and the viewer is established through Wajda's films. At the same time, she offers a detailed analysis of the historical events leading up to the collapse of the Socialist system in Poland.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 1.\u003c\/b\u003e The Political Film of Andrzej Wajda\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 2.\u003c\/b\u003e Issues of Methodology\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 3.\u003c\/b\u003e Andrzej Wajda: the Carrier of the Political Message\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 4.\u003c\/b\u003e The Historical Dialogue in Wajda's Films\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 5.\u003c\/b\u003e Wajda and his Dramatis Personae\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 6.\u003c\/b\u003e The Films' Dialogical Aesthetics\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eConclusion\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eAppendix:\u003c\/b\u003e Film Synopses of \u003ci\u003eMan of Marble, Man of Iron \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eDanton.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Berghahn Books, Incorporated","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51041404420439,"sku":"9781571810052","price":89.1,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781571810052.jpg?v=1750950140","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-political-films-of-andrzej-wajda-dialogism-in-man-of-marble-man-of-iron-and-danton-9781571810052","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
