Short description:	The aim of the course is to give students an overview of the history of Poland as reflected in Warsaw’s monuments as well as art and history museums. The visits to places of interest will be intertwined with class discussions and presentations of video material (documentaries and fiction) related to particular topics. An attempt will be made to demonstrate the specificity of Poland’s historical experience as well as to facilitate the recognition of Polish unique contribution to the universal legacy of European culture. Confronted with the essential turning points shaping Poland’s contemporary cultural identity, the students will be encouraged to perceive and adequately interpret social, political and cultural developments in Poland against the general background of its history and cultural heritage.
