The paper discusses the history of translations and staging of Rabindranath Tagore's play Post Office in Poland. Despite the fact that Tagore never visited Poland, he is the only writer of the old generation from the Indian subcontinent whose writings have been extensively translated into Polish. Among Tagore's translations into Polish the play The Post Office deserves a special attention. It is the only work of Tagore that has been translated into Polish five times by different translators. It was also staged several times. One of the most significant stagings was conducted during very crucial and tragic times of the Second World War in Poland. The play was staged in the orphanage run by Janusz Korczak (a writer, educator, medical doctor and social activist) in the Warsaw Ghetto, just before Korczak and the children were taken by Nazis to Treblinka concentration camp and murdered in a gas chamber.

In recent decades, poetry has died many deaths and is still considered moribund today. The strange thing, though, is that it remains alive and often revives in moments of political crisis. This, for instance, was true in 1919 in the Republic of China (1912−1949) as well as in 1979 in the People's Republic of China (1949−present). Both of these dates also have to do with an Indian poet, namely with Rabindranath Tagore (1861−1941), whose impact on Chinese literature is still measurable even after more than eighty years. The turning point in 1919 was for some type of bourgeois revolution and the watershed in 1979 represents a kind of socialist reform. Both dates are milestones in the history of modern China.
