The monumental work, exhibited from May 21 to August 30, 2021, at a pres tigious British cultural institution, was favoured by its own daily arrangement - of the planets. The National Gallery and the Polish Cultural Institute in London, with the support of The Capricorn Foundation and the „Independent” Programme Office, made the right decision to present to guests in Trafalgar Square outstanding artists from outside Great Britain, whose work deserves to be discovered and shown to an international, wide audience. The organizers of the exhibition wrote, that telling about a forgotten piece of Polish art, Polish heritage, must begin with Matejko. The temporary exhibition was celebrated two eminent Poles: Nicolaus Copernicus, a Renaissance astronomer, creating a completely new, real truth about the arrangement of the cosmos, and Jan Matejko, the most outstanding and widely valued painter, who shared creative genius and passion for science. This amazing order of the world and the discovery of the real sky not only raised the hope of man, who could reach the farthest corners of the vast universe with his own mind, which became a contribution to the admiration of Polish historical painting and an excellent idea for expression among students of Polish schools. Growing curiosity and a pretext for reflection and discussion around Copernicus’ work De revolutionibus orbium coelestium, were briefly but accurately published in the media, in the press and recommended on television. The author, being an active and passive member of the researched community, analysed both honourable and exciting events using virtual ethnography.

Ignacy Jan Paderewski – „King of tones” and son of great Polish culture, was an excellent composer and pianist, who, as an interpreter of Chopin’s music and his own works, delivered speeches during numerous journeys before public performances at concerts, lobbying for Poland. Out of the need of a patriotic heart, this esteemed diplomat and outstanding politician who demanded independence for Poland, actively supported various initiatives, including large sums for charity and public purposes. Despite the fame and honour of the whole world, he had a great dream to use the money he earned to buy a manor and agricultural property. In this article, the author presents the Swiss headquarters in Riond-Bosson, which has become not only an important centre of a thriving Polish political emigration, but a forge of Polish living art and outstanding individuality. In the suburbs of Morges, in the Paderewski villa, master classes for Polish pianists preparing to participate in the Chopin Competitions in Warsaw were held, as well as meetings during which Polish political and cultural history was shaped for a long time.

This article brie tory – General Władysław Anders and also the post-war repatriation of soldiers of the history presents the profile of an outstanding politician in our national his-2nd Polish Corps, whose fate led them to the so-called Recovered Territories, including, among them, Opole Silesia. When applying for repatriation from Great Britain by sea (to Polish Pomerania) and by land (by rail from Italy) to Silesia, over one hundred thousand people returned to the country. Despite the chaos and revolutionary systemic changes, the shrinking of Poland in the East and enlargement in the West, Anders’ army veterans, of the „trail of hope” are looking for a place of „small stability” in their homeland. Some of these Anders’ veterans decide to settle in the region of Opole Silesia. Deportations, resettlements, displacements, repatriations – the brutality of the events aer 1945 come as a shock for the inhabitants of the former Provinz Oberchlesien (Upper Silesia). This publication is supplemented by written memoirs of soldier-repatriates, as well as the content of conversations with their immediate family.

The first Polish Saturday Schools (PSS) in the UK were established in the 1950s. Their didactic and educational aims included the continuation of mother-tongue education for Polish children in exile and the promotion of culture and national heritage among children already born in the UK. Currently, Polish Saturday Schools fulfil the role of ambassadors of Polishness and play an important socio-cultural and identity role. PSS are perceived as a common good and an integral part of the local community of the country of residence, which creates space for a dialogical relationship between pupils, their parents, and teachers, also in the context of global crises. Drawing on a pilot study involving netnography, an attempt will be made to answer the question of what activities are undertaken by PSS members in the UK to support the war refugees from Ukraine and whether these initiatives serve a pro-community education function.
