Book Synopsis

The book proposes a new category heterotopia of affect which builds upon Michel Foucault's typology. The category refers to changes of the places that accumulate contents of ideological, historical, religious, and national character. The book tells the history of a very Polish edifice as well as its surrounding cultural milieu and the history-creating role of the scientific community. The author focuses on the Staszic Palace whose fate reveals how at different times in history it catalyzed activities in search of radical changes in the mental landscape of the Polish community.
