Faces of Gdansk

Cover von Faces of Gdansk

Aneta Lewinska (Prof. Dr.)/Maria Fengler (Dr.)

Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht

The studies offer multidisciplinary perspectives on modern Gdansk. The chapters provide insight into the citys literature and culture, analysing works by leading Polish authors, exploring the complexities of the commemoration of the Jewish presence, as well as illuminating the citys Christian heritage, enshrined in its Bibles and churches. A similar focus on the past and the present marks the studies of the models of education in Gdansk before the Second World War and after the fall of communism. Finally, linguistic analyses of internet corpora address the issues of the living language spoken in Gdansk as well as used to describe the city. Collectively, the contributors paint a picture of an open, vibrant and innovative city proud of its multicultural and multilingual past.
