The author focuses here on the image of Poland as mediated through the prismatic figure of John Paul II. Publications dealing with the Pope and the Church in Poland andappearing in the British media, especially the Catholic press, have shown the huge positive impact the Polish Pope had in his homeland during an eventful period of Communist rule. Analysis of the British publications and their portrayal of majorhistorical events during the pontificate of John Paul II demonstrates at the same time key part played by the Polish Pope in the creation of a positive image of Poland in the British Isles.

Already in the first weeks of Poland’s independence the Polish government had to face a series of anti-Jewish incidents on territories under its authority.The article seeks to ascertain whether the Jewish question in Poland was present in the American press, which after the First World War was becoming increasingly influential in the world in connection with the USA’s economic and financial power.The author determines which riots were reported in the American press and how objective the accounts were. Attention is paid to the reaction of the Jewish and Polish organizations in the United States to the reports from Poland and its descriptionin the American press. The last important issue dealt with in the article is the time scope of the description of the anti-Jewish incidents in Poland. All these detailed questions allow to grasp the interesting problem of the creation of th eimage of reborn Poland across the Atlantic.The image abroadis an important issue for every country, but for independent Poland, which was establishing its borders and sovereign existence after a war that had ruined its economic basis, this was an issue that could determine the country’s future destiny as the United States and other Entente powers had a decisive voice at the Peace Conference in Paris.

Among the various sources for the study of Polish-German relations in the 17th century, also reports from diplomatic travels deserve attention. To date, they have been mainly studied by historians who analysed the information layer pertaining to the events presented. A significant number of these texts have not yet been published. The purpose of the paper is to identify travelogue as a type of literature, which, due to its characteristics, can also be used for imagological research. The research problem is an attempt to define travelogue as a type of text, although such pieces of writing generally evade definition because of the diverse factors that influence the final shape of the work. The history of research on travelogues in Germany dates back to the 19th century, when they were mainly dealt with by bibliographers and geographers on account of the classic, „narrow“ interpretation of literature, which did not include functional texts. The research method consists in an analysis of the report written by Christoph Leopold Schaffgotsch, an imperial legate, who travelled to Warsaw and participated in the election of the king of Poland in 1699. Politics, which was both the background of events and the main motive for his travel and the writing of the report, undoubtedly left a mark on the content and the image of the Polish society conveyed by the work. Attention should also be drawn to the numerous known, albeit not yet published reports from diplomatic travels, stored e.g. in the Haus-, Hof- und Staatsarchiv in Vienna. The author makes the claim that their inclusion could introduce a new quality in the research on the German image of Poles in the 17th century.

This paper offers a critical appraisal of the image of Poland and Poles as it appears in Brit ish university textbooks and syllabi for students opting to study business, economics, - psychology, and social sciences with respect to the countries of Central and Eastern Europe. Authors of university textbooks have considered all the most signicant historical, political and social events in reference to Poland in modern times, right up to the present. The present study analyses presentations and interpretations of selected events and processes, including the functioning of the apparatus of state in seventeenth-century Poland, the unprecedented power of the Polish aristocracy and lesser nobility, the impact of World War II, the phenomenon of the Polish Government in Exile, the process of the sovietisation of Poland, and the transformation and synthesis of communism

The subject of the following analysis is the debut novel by Alexandra Tobor, a representative of „young prose with Polish roots“ within German Literature. In her novel, the author depicts the departure of the child protagonist and her family from Poland to Germany in the late 1980s as a kind of „clash of civilizations“ (Huntington 1997). The aim of this paper, therefore, is to examine what narrative strategies the author uses to present the binary oppositions between the original culture and the host culture. By following the course of the story and the distribution of thematic and emotional accents in it, I will try to prove that the formula of „paradise lost“ and „paradise found“ used in the title reflects the complexity of the protagonist’s liminal state and the image of Poland and Germany presented in the novel.

Der Gegenstand der folgenden Analyse ist der Debütroman von Alexandra Tobor, einer Vertreterin der „jungen Prosa mit polnischen Wurzeln“ (Helbig-Mischewski/Zduniak-Wiktorowicz 2016) innerhalb der deutschsprachigen Literatur. In ihrem Roman stellt die Autorin die Ausreise der kindlichen Protagonistin und ihrer Familie aus Polen nach Deutschland Ende der 1980er Jahre als eine Art „Zusammenprall der Kulturen“ (Huntington 1997) dar. Das Ziel dieses Beitrags ist es daher zu untersuchen, welche narrativen Strategien die Autorin anwendet, um die binären Gegensätze zwischen der Herkunfts- und der Aufnahmekultur darzustellen. Indem ich den Verlauf der Geschichte und die Verteilung der thematischen und emotionalen Akzente in ihr verfolge, versuche ich zu beweisen, dass die im Titel verwendete Formel vom „verlorenen“ und „wiedergewonnenen“ Paradies der Komplexität des liminalen Zustands der Protagonistin und des im Roman dargestellten Bildes von Polen und Deutschland entspricht.
