A Cruel Theatre of Self-Immolations investigates contemporary protest self-burnings and their echoes across culture.The book provides a conceptual frame for the phenomenon and an annotated, comprehensive timeline of suicide protests by fire, supplemented with notes on artworks inspired by or devoted to individual cases. The core of the publication consists of six case studies of these ultimate acts, augmented with analyses and interpretations hailing from the visual arts, film, theatre, architecture, and literature. By examining responses to these events within an interdisciplinary frame, Ziółkowski highlights the phenomenon’s global reach and creates a broad, yet in-depth, exploration of the problems that most often prompt these self-burnings, such as religious discrimination and harassment, war and its horrors, the brutality and indoctrination of authoritarian regimes and the apathy they produce, as well as the exploitation of the so-called "subalterns" and their exclusion from mainstream economic systems.Of interest to scholars from an array of fields, from theatre and performance, to visual art, to religion and politics, A Cruel Theatre of Self-Immolations offers a unique look at voluntary, demonstrative, and radical performances of shock and subversion.

VOICES FROM WITHIN: GROTOWSKI'S POLISH COLLABORATORS brings together, for the first time in English, the distinctive voices of renowned director Jerzy Grotowski's Polish colleagues, providing a rare insight into different areas of their research and work. Through conversations, recollections, journal entries, images, working notes, and other testimonies, the collection opens up a range of perspectives on this changing practice - both within and beyond the theatre - from the actors, artists, designers, producers, administrators, and investigators who co-created it. The book spans the full period of Grotowski's career, from the 'theatre of productions' phase, through paratheatre and Theatre of Sources, to the final phase of 'Art as vehicle' following his emigration from Poland. What emerges from these narratives is a genuinely collaborative endeavour that, as Grotowski himself commented - in a note distributed with the Laboratory Theatre's touring productions - is often mistakenly associated with 'his name and his name alone'.Voices from Within makes an important contribution to international understanding of this work, by offering a multi-vocal 'insiders' account' of the collective and individual searches, uncertainties, discoveries, and experiences that accompanied many of Grotowski's long-time creative partnerships.
