Recenzja monografii Teresy Maresz pt. "Polska i Polacy w radzieckiej szkolnej narracji podręcznikowej". Praca ta stanowi niezwykle wnikliwe studium sowietologiczne, które pozwala lepiej zrozumieć sposób prezentowania Polaków przez pryzmat treści edukacyjnych skierowanych do obywatelibyłego Związku Socjalistycznych Republik Radzieckich, a co z tym się wiąże - sposób budowania wzajemnych radziecko‑polskich relacji.

Teodor Lewandowski, inspector of the Bydgoszcz Voivodship Security Service Office, was sent to Złotów in August 1945 to displace the local German population to a labour camp situated in that town. After a short time he had terrorised Złotów and became the terror of both the local Germans and the Polish autochthonous population. The inhabitants of the town were being thrown out of their flats, sent to the camp, and their possessions pillaged. Lewandowski himself took an active part in the plunder, appropriating gold jewellery and other objects of value. At the camp the prisoners were robbed, beaten, starved, forced to unpaid work, and subjected to physical and psychological harassment. Because of very bad sanitary conditions, lack of medical attention and starvation several prisoners died. The terrified local Polish population tried to come for help to the Złotów Starost (county head) and to the activists of the Polish Western Union, among whom there were many pre-war members of the Union of Poles in Germany. Their efforts ended successfully. The central authorities became interested in the fate of the local Polish population. Fearing that he might be arrested Lewandowski deserted in November 1945 and fled to Berlin; later he hid himself for 15 months in West Pomerania. He was arrested in February 1947 and brought to the District Military Court in Szczecin. In January 1948 he was sentenced to death; his life sentence was commuted to one of 15 years’ imprisonment. After 6.5 years, in August 1954, Teodor Lewandowski was released from prison.

The author focuses on Polish big-beat music from the 1960s and early 1970s. He analyzes the lyrics of selected songs from that period, pointing to their self-referential nature and explaining how big beat performers described their fans, themselves, and teenage music in their songs. Songs by both popular and less known local bands are analyzed. The analysis functions in a broader social and political context, and the study of lyrics is further supplemented with quotations from the contemporary press and statements by politicians, journalists, and managers. The author shows that the self-referentiality present in the lyrics of big-beat songs proves that Polish artists in the 1960s and early 1970s were aware of their lyrical and musical strategies.

Autor skupia się na polskiej muzyce bigbeatowej z lat 60. i początku lat 70. XX wieku. Analizując teksty wybranych utworów z tego okresu, wskazuje na występujący w nich autotematyzm – prezentuje różne sposoby, na jakie wykonawcy bigbeatowi wypowiadali się w piosenkach o swoich słuchaczach, o samych sobie i o muzyce młodzieżowej jako zjawisku. Wykorzystuje przy tym zarówno utwory popularnych zespołów, jak i mniej znanych, lokalnych grup. Rozważania umieszczone są w szerszym kontekście społecznym i politycznym, a źródła muzyczne uzupełniono cytatami z ówczesnej prasy, wypowiedziami polityków oraz organizatorów życia kulturalnego. Autor wykazuje, że autotematyzm obecny w tekstach piosenek bigbeatowych świadczy o sporej samoświadomości polskich artystów w omawianym okresie.

The Department for Studies on the Origins of the Polish State was an institution established in 1949 by the Ministry of Culture and Art to carry out interdisciplinary research (which began a year earlier) on the genesis and functioning of the state of the First Piasts, undertaken in connection with the 1000th anniversary of the foundation of the Polish state and its baptism (1966). Although the Department’s main goal was to identify the main centers of the early Piast state, it also had its merits in the field of monument protection – archaeologists, taking advantage of the unique situation of destruction and demolition, entered the historic downtowns and began their research. The scale of the necessary interventions was becoming embarrassing, especially since the so-called great buildings of socialism and the reconstruction of cities led to numerous discoveries. However, the most challenging situation was at the construction site of Nowa Huta, which was located for political reasons, without considering that the selected areas were covered with fertile soil used by the population since the Neolithic. This article aims to present the history of rescue excavations in the area of Nowa Huta (now a district of Krakow, established in the late 1940s), the first stage of which was carried out as part of the Department activities.

Edward Kupiszewski’s (1940–2000) poetic work documents the fate of a representative of the Polish intelligentsia who lives in the countryside during the second half of the twentieth century. His poems reflect complexes of the inhabitant of the provinces as well as his creative ambition and dignity. Using geographical realities, Kupiszewski evoked autobiographical experiences, literary tradition, religious experience and political unrest of his time. This literary output represents the stream of Polish regional poetry.
PL
Twórczość poetycka Edwarda Kupiszewskiego (1940–2000) dokumentuje los polskiego inteligenta z prowincji drugiej połowy XX w. W wierszach odzwierciedlają się kompleksy prowincjusza, a jednocześnie jego twórcza ambicja i godność. Kupiszewski, posługując się realiami geograficznymi, przywoływał doświadczenia autobiograficzne, tradycję literacką, przeżycia religijne oraz niepokoje polityczne swojego czasu. Dorobek liryczny poety reprezentuje nurt polskiej poezji regionalnej.

PRL z perspektywy badań literackich i kulturowych [The Representation of Communism: The PPR from the Perspective of Literary and Cultural Studies] (2018).
