		<description><![CDATA[Photo: Michal Korta Sienkiewicz&#8217;s Teutonic Knights spoke the Goral dialect. The writer apparently shared the perception of his contemporaries of the Gorals as the ethnically purest Poles, their dialect and culture having preserved a kind of intact ur-Polishness. Nobody really cared that they are partially descended from nomadic shepherds from the Balkans, from the Carpathian mountains of Romania. It is quite possible that this fact was not widely known at the time. Not least not among the Gorals. All their exotic sounding words are more likely to be derived from the Romanian, or perhaps even Italian, but nobody would admit [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I had a dream the other night. I dreamt of the Passenger Car Factory where my father had worked for over forty years. After World War II it was the first &#8211; and for a long time the only &#8211; factory producing passenger cars in Poland. It was built in 1951. The first car it produced was the Polish version of the Russian GAZ M20, known as Pobeda, which means Victory. The factory occupied a large district on the periphery of Warsaw and must have been one of the largest employers in town and one of the largest in the [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In his latest book, my friend the Ukrainian writer Taras Prochasko proposed a rather daring thesis. He suggested that, had Germany won the last war, Ukraine would have ended up in the European cultural sphere. My initial response to this statement was that of profound resentment. Of course, I understood that Poland and Ukraine fared very differently during World War II. In a way, Hitler had flirted with the Ukrainians, holding out the prospect of some rudimentary autonomy (or so, at least, it seemed to the Ukrainians), forming Ukrainian SS units and various auxiliary and police units. Poland had simply [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Teraz je túto krajinu vidno najlepšie. Začína sa jar. Dni sú teraz dlhé a svetlé. Stromy ešte nemajú lístie, a tak výhľad nič nezakrýva. Krajina je nahá. Začiatkom jari je vidieť, že je hrdinská a dramatická. Mení sa, sťahuje zo seba kožu. Chvíľami je škaredá ako odhalená kostra. Všetky tie reklamy popri cestách, bilbordy, veľké farebné tabule, vychvaľujúce lacný tovar, monštruózne fotografie mäsa: pliecko 9,90, sedliacka klobása 16,90, kuracie filé&#8230; Lišaje ostrých farieb pokrývajú steny, zakrývajú stromy, nebo, krajinu. Všetky tie lákadlá, bez ohľadu na to, či ide o mäso, oblečenie, telefóny alebo vyučovanie jazykov &#8211; pôsobia rovnako pornograficky, sú [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Photo: Peter Župník Libya. In Poland in the 1970s and 1980s the word sounded like an incantation. It sounded like Open Sesame. Qaddafi needed engineers, technicians and workers to modernize his country. Communist Poland started a long-term love affair with him, sending him workers. The Colonel&#8217;s revolutionary and anti-Western rhetoric made him appear like something of a political ally. However, for ordinary people it was the economy that counted. While the average salary in Poland at the time was the equivalent of 20 US dollars, the colonel paid (after a fee extorted by the communist administration) at least fifteen times [&#8230;]]]></description>
