About event
Guest lecture
Arkadiusz Morawiecz (University of Łódź)
The lecture examines works of Polish literature that address the theme of Polish (communist) camps operating between 1944 and 1956. These camps are usually referred to as “labor camps”, although they also served for concentration, deportation, and repression. Unlike German and Soviet camps, these remain – for various reasons – on the margins of Polish collective memory. The lecture discusses novels and short stories and refers to the most important reportages, examining them within the broader contexts of history, politics, and ideology.
