This article presents the contemporary Gothic in the independence culture. Gothic was born in the Middle Ages and was later used and adapted by the romantic writers to create the Gothic novel. The contemporary culture of Gothic was born in London at the end of the 20th century and in Poland at the beginning of the 1990’s. The associations with the Middle Ages are rather superficial and restrict themselves to considerable interest in the dark and the magical. It is an intellectual subculture that centres around writings by E.A. Poe and contemporary vampire literature, mainly The Vampire Chronicles by A. Rice. Music is an essential element of that subculture and therefore the festival of Gothic music in Bolków is a crucial event for Goths. Goths’ costumes, a fundamental aspect of the subculture, refer to the Victorian Period with their absolute blackness and ghastly make-up. Yet, there remains a question of authenticity of the Gothic subculture as it is full of theatrical and playful elements. What is more, it may be viewed as a rebellion against radically rational reality of the contemporary world.

Aportion of Polish culture of the nineteen-eighties, which I will provisionally term the “solidarity culture,” remains neglected by researchers. The culture of this period is usually enclosed in the history of the Polish struggle against the communist system, which is almost exclusively treated in political and sociological terms. The main issue here is its influence on the generation and sustenance of the spirit of resistance, creation of communal conscience, filling the gaps in history, and defalsifying history. These certainly are significant aspects of the solidarity movement activity in the realm of culture, but far from being the only ones. The author is interested in a narrow section of the solidarity culture referring to a specific projection of existence, that is the poetry of martial law with certain indispensable references to former periods- in particular the culture of the workers’ strikes of 1980. The researcher is mainly concerned with women’s experience and roles recorded in the poetry of martial law with respect to opposition.
