The paper describes the genesis and content of “Biuletyn”, the journal edited by management board of Brussels-Washington group of the Polish Peasant Party in the years 1977–1988. They were Stanisław Bańczyk and Hanna Chorążyna. The Editorial Board assumed that they would be shunning from rivalry among emigration groups and they would inform about the situation in Poland, about more important events in the world which were correlated with fighting the communism, about more important events in Polish emigration. These assumptions were fulfilled. In “Biuletyn” they wrote a lot about history of Poland, especially about Polish-Russian historical relations. They also wrote a lot about activity of the Pope John Paul II. The choice of materials was not coincidental. It was supposed to concentrate attention of members and supporters of peasant movement around these events. Assessing it, one should acknowledge that such a selection was correct and the editorial office kept track of the world events. It is only a pity that there were not many own authors and analysts (from the Polish Peasant Party). Nevertheless, majority of articles were a reprint from other, domestic or emigration magazines.

Mieczysław Fijałkowski (1888–1972) was an author of 12 comedies, three volumes of short stories and also memoires. The memoirs, as well as some of the short stories, were published; alas, none of his plays was. Nevertheless, in the interwar period they won a considerable popularity and were put on stage by a significant number of famous artists and directors. They were staged also after the Second World War, not in Warsaw, however, but rather in the provinces. The works by Fijałkowski are all the more interesting because of the fact that he was not a professional writer. For 50 years he was working in agriculture as agronomist, thus the country is the main theme of his artistic output. It is a testimony of social transformation that took place in Poland in the 20th century.
