Modern Arts Cinema Literature Music Theatre Practitioners Artists Authors Composers Musicians ... e The culture of Poland is closely connected with its intricate 1000 year history Its unique character developed as a result of its geography at the confluence of Western and Eastern Europe . With origins in the culture of the Proto-Slavs , over time Polish culture has been profoundly influenced by its interweaving ties with the Germanic Latinate and Byzantine worlds as well as in continual dialog with the many other ethnic groups and minorities living in Poland The people of Poland have traditionally been seen as hospitable to artists from abroad and eager to follow cultural and artistic trends popular in other countries. In the 19th and 20th centuries the Polish focus on cultural advancement often took precedence over political and economic activity. These factors have contributed to the versatile nature of Polish art , with all its complex nuances.

One particular feature of Polish culture, highlighting it in the eyes of the world, is the unusual melange of metaphysical searching and historical experience. This is also true of the visual arts. During the period of partition, Poles succeeded in preserving their identity only thanks to religion and culture. In a country deprived of its own state and torn into three partitions, art and poetry had specific tasks: maintaining the national memory, organizing the Polish imagination and preserving the national identity?

Poland, Culture
The great periods of Western cultural and intellectual expression are paralleled by the history of Polish creativity. The Italian Renaissance inspired a great burst of culture in Poland. The Reformation sped the development of a Polish vernacular literature, and in the 18th and 19th centuries Poles were greatly influenced by French culture. During the Stalinist period, which lasted in Poland from 1949 to 1955, artistic freedom was severely circumscribed by the government. After 1956 Poland’s cultural policies became generally more liberal. deeper links

The first Polish state was created in 966, within territory very similar to the present boundaries of Poland. Poland became a kingdom in 1025, and in 1569 it cemented a long association with the Grand Duchy of Lithuania by uniting to form the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.
The Commonwealth collapsed in 1795. Poland regained its independence in 1918 after World War I but lost it again in World War II, occupied by Nazi Germany and Soviet Union, emerging several years later as a communist country within the Eastern Bloc under control of the former Soviet Union. In 1989, communist rule was overthrown and Poland became what is informally known as the "Third Polish Republic". Today, as the 6th most populated member state of the European Union, Poland is a liberal democracy made up of sixteen voivodeships (Polish: województwo). Poland is also a member of European Union, NATO, the United Nations, OECD and the World Trade Organization.
Culture Polish culture has a rich thousand-year history influenced by both West and East. Today, these influences are evident in Polish architecture, folklore, and art. Poland is the birthplace of many world famous people, including Pope John Paul II (Polish: Papiez Jan Pawel II), Marie Sklodowska Curie (Polish: Maria Sklodowska-Curie), Kazimierz Pulaski (Polish: Kazimierz Pulaski), Tadeusz Kosciuszko, Nicolaus Copernicus (Polish: Mikolaj Kopernik), and others.

O RIENTATION
Identification. Polanie was derived in the tenth century from the name of a Slavonic tribe near Poznan. It means dwellers or people of the field, meadow, or plain. There are five Polish regional cultural traditions with associated dialects. Poles residing abroad could be considered as a sixth group. Regional cultural differences, identification, and dialects are becoming increasingly less noticeable and less important. Location and Geography. Seventy-five percent of the land lies below 650 feet (200 meters). The Baltic Sea forms a natural northern border, and the Sudetes and Carpathians form the southern border. Poland does not have any natural borders on the east or west. Polish wars and large scale changes in the borders, both ethnically and politically, have been to the east and west while the northern and southern borders have changed little over the past one thousand years.

Poland Europe
CULTURE One of the major cultural contributions of Poland to the world has been its literature. The earliest writings in Polish date from the 15th century, though Poles were writing in Latin at an earlier date. Most of this early literature was religious in nature. One of the first writers to use Polish exclusively was Mikolaj Rej (1505-69), who wrote poetry and prose. The literature of the 18th century showed the influence of contacts with Western Europe. The first major Polish woman writer, ElZbieta DruZbacka, appeared at this time. The establishment of a national theater in Warsaw in 1765 encouraged a number of dramatists such as Wojciech Boguslawski and Franciszek Zablocki. Aleksander Fredro wrote popular comedies. The Romantic period of the early 19th century produced some of Poland's greatest poets, of whom the most famous was Adam Mickiewicz. Much of his work was written in exile in Russia, including his great national epic, 'Pan Tadeusz' (1834). Other poets and dramatists of the period were Juliusz Slowacki, Zygmunt Krasinski, and Cyprian Norwid. At the end of the 19th century writers emerged such as Aleksander Glowacki, a supporter of realism who wrote under the name Boleslaw Prus, and Henryk Sienkiewicz, whose novel 'Quo Vadis?' (1896) became internationally famous. Sienkiewicz also wrote novels about heroic periods in Poland's past. In the early 20th century a notable writer was Wladyslaw Reymont, whose four-volume novel 'The Peasants' (1902-09) achieved worldwide fame. Reymont and Sienkiewicz both won Nobel prizes in literature. Stefan zeromski wrote novels, stories, and plays, while Stanislaw Wyspianski was a playwright.

    Poland's National Flag The national flag of Poland consists of a stripe of white on the top and a stripe of red on the bottom. These colors have been in use in the Polish flag for centuries. Before the 20th century, Poland's flag featured its coat of arms, a white eagle on a red background. Some Polish flags still use the coat of arms; it will be found in a red crest centered in the white stripe of the current national flag. The colors of Poland's flag are often used to represent the country. You will see red and white used in cities' coat of arms (for example, Warsaw's coat of arms features a red shield on a white background). Souvenirs from Poland are also sometimes created in these colors.

    Poland : Culture
    The 7th largest nation in Europe, Poland is located in the middle of the North European Plain that extends from the Netherlands to the Ural Mountains of Russia. Although its topography is broken by some terrain variations, particularly in the south, most of Poland deficiencys remarkable changes of elevation. The combination of geographic location and topography has strongly determined Polish society and the nation's relations with surrounding nations. Both by cultural tradition and by recent social policy, Poles were comparatively well educated. The 1990 literacy rate was 98 %. At that time, more than 17 % of Poles had postsecondary education, and 4 % had achieved advanced college degrees. The end of communist rule in 1989 presented new challenges to Polish society and to government policy makers. The concept of universal, state-guaranteed protection from unemployment, sickness,and poverty was challenged as Poland turned toward privatization and opened its economy to market forces. Although society had retained a healthy skepticism about the benefits of total socialization, postcommunist governments could not devise replacement social programs fast enough to avoid bitter social dissatisfaction when the security of the old system disappeared.
