Description

Over the centuries, Polish writers composed unique, powerful, resistant, political and also self-reflective literature. This literature, partly written in exile, offers a real wealth of topics of an emotional and social nature. The initial phase of the project has been to conduct an inventory of the literature, including in-depth reading, structuring the material, and exploring novels and other narratives, autobiographical writings and secondary literature included in this period and locale. Following the intial review, the researchers will examine the emotional and social geographies, themes and explorations that evolve from this wide field of literature. The results of this analysis will be discussed in the triangle of German, American and Polish perspectives. The researchers‘ views will reflect ideas linked into the world of current educational thought, both in and outside schools, as well as those views connected to ideas found in contemporary culture, and those areas that deal with social change at the European and global level.
