Błękitny fin de siècle on Blue Monday
In order to disenchant the most depressing day of the year, the University of Wrocław Press is currently preparing a shipment of more than 200 copies of the book “Błękitny fin de siècle” by prof. Justyna Bajda on behalf of a company. Unusual because they are autographed by name from the author. If you have a company and are looking for a unique gift for your recipients, we remind you that the Publisher provides custom publishing services, and book gifts are not thrown away. We can’t reveal who and for whom, lest someone accidentally spoil the surprise. But we do not hide the fact that we like such a gift very much!
Especially since the book was included in the list of several most beautiful books of the year 2024 by the editors of Culture.pl magazine!

How to communicate effectively in difficult situations?
In November, the University of Wrocław Press published the book “Młody ksiądz wobec wyzwań komunikacyjnych,” authored by dr Agnieszka Janiak, who is a cultural studies scholar, philologist and assistant professor at the Faculty of Applied Studies at the University of Lower Silesia DSW. In Poland, she conducts communication training and workshops for priests and religious, doctors, nurses and social workers – she refers to the topic given his years of experience and practice.
Especially at the time of caroling and meeting with priests, we remind this item. “Młody ksiądz wobec wyzwań komunikacyjnych” is the only one of its kind, an innovative textbook on communication, aimed primarily at clergy, but also at others in the helping professions. Each named and described communication problem is accompanied by the author’s proposed solutions in the form of exercises and concrete activities. Clergy, which we don’t always realize, also struggle with stress, loneliness, a sense of meaninglessness in their ministry, and consequently professional burnout. Being a young priest in Poland at the beginning of the 21st century is a particularly difficult challenge, because you are entangled in relationships with an often hostile environment.
From the beginning, the publication has attracted extraordinary media attention, not only from Catholic media, and has been widely reported in various circles. You can take a look at the texts:
