THE CAPTIVE MIND
ZNIEWOLONY UMYSŁ
Paris 1953. Literary Institute. pages 236, [8]. brooch Library "Culture", vol. 3.
The Captive Mind - a collection of 9 essays by Czesław Miłosz, written in 1951, published in 1953 by the Literary Institute in Paris as volume 3 of the "Kultura" Library. The first edition in Poland was published outside of censorship in 1978, officially only in 1989. The preface to the French edition (La pensée captive) was written by Karl Jaspers, introduction to the English edition (The Captive Mind) by Bertrand Russell.
The work of Kafka-Orwellian origin uses a parable and allegory to analyze the intellectual process of the Eastern European intelligentsia becoming dependent on the political and economic rules of the communist doctrine. Karl Jaspers described The Captive Mind as an excellent study of "splitting a man into two" under the influence of enormous ideological pressure.
