Conference: The Very Beginning (dr. Bożena Karwowska)
Conference: Warsaw, 5-6.12.2016
The conference, “The Very Beginning: The Years 1944-1948 in Literature from the Period of the Polish People’s Republic” provides an interdisciplinary forum for scholars to utilize modern-day analytical tools to bring to the fore the question of how social phenomena of 1944-48 were recorded in the literature of the Polish People’s Republic, 1949-1989. Questions to be addressed include the ways in which both official and unofficial narratives of the Polish People’s Republic were shaped by social processes as recorded in literature of the period, and how these literary representations are socially and/or politically informed in their linguistic/textual structures.
