“Poles at the Ends of the World”
- Which Polish general has a settlement in South America named after him?
- Who was sent exotic delicacies to the POW camp by their former workers?
- How did an inconspicuous geographer from Lviv put a spoke in the European powers’ wheel?
- In which district of Warsaw and why were the achievements of a famous traveller censored with a grinder in the 21st century?
We will discuss these and many other exotic adventures of Polish travellers during the lecture “Poles at the Ends of the world” at breakfast on 18 November. For those interested, we’ll be recommending an exhibition which runs until the end of the month, where you can discover more globetrotter stories.
The meeting will be hosted by Hanna Dzielińska – a journalist, Warsaw guide, author of online intercity (quarantine) walks, books on culture and the city, as well as a populariser of culture and art. Hania is also involved in keeping cultural and artistic life vibrant and alive – she organizes the production of documentaries and reportages and cooperates with districts and cultural institutions in the creation of historical publications. Hania has also led the scientific club of History of Art Students and has published her own series of adventure games for children and adults.
The meeting will be held in Polish.
