'Jew the Eternal Wanderer' has functioned for centuries in biblical tradition and folk culture. As a legend and myth he was also present in European literature. He has found a stable place in the imagination and ficitionalized accounts in Polish prose and poetry. However, the message he carried was indeed real. He originated in the tradition of Judaism and carried in himself the curse of a nation accused of crucifying Jesus. Over the ages the legend encountered reality and there was a mutual feedback between them. Exile and wandering which was the share of the people of Israel found its tragic end in the 20th century, an age of the Holocaust, but also of the creation of the state of Israel, where the 'Eternal Wanderer' found his homeland. .

Activity in the area of international relations has become after 1989 one of the major elements of changing the Polish state's image abroad. Animators of the civil movement in Poland's local governments in counties and communes became important actors in establishing an understanding with Germans. They could refer to the Catholic traditions of the lay elites of the past decades and shared an interest in their neighbours accompanied by a need to create a common platform with them. Far away from politics, they sought to solve the current problems both in the dimension of professional milieus and in the domain of local communities. Examples of various types of initiatives towards mutual understanding between Poles and Germans can be found in the materials published in this volume, sent in at the request of the editor.
