Extractions: Poland's national culture was born of Latin and Byzantine influences, and influenced by various European occupations throughout the country's history. Highly artistic people, the Poles have adapted and "borrowed" freely from many cultures, contributing to the versatile character of Polish art. In the 19th and 20th centuries, the Polish people's focus on cultural development even took the place of political and economic activity. Customs, manners, and traditional costumes reflect both eastern and western influences including rich eastern ornamental styles and Islamic influences. One of the most original and authentic branch of Polish folk art is paper cut-outs. Folk cut-outs are the most genuine example of Polish art; unique in Europe. The cut-outs were used to decorate the interiors of village huts especially for Christmas and Easter seasons. Wafer cut-outs (made with flour and water) were very popular in Polish homes at Christmas. This art is displayed in exhibitions, and illuminates the immense skills of village women who had never taken any professional training in art. These artisans learned their skills from their mothers and grandmothers. The origins of Polish literature date back to the 14th century. In the 19th century, when Poland did not exist as an independent state, great Romantic literature flourished. Poets like Adam Mickiewicz, Juliusz Slowacki and Zygmunt Krasinski became spiritual leaders of a nation deprived of its sovereignty, prophesying its revival. In the south, Zakopane was the birthplace of the avant-garde works of Stanislaw Ignacy Witkiewicz.

Extractions: Welcome to Poland Governance and Law Society and Culture Regional Cooperation ... Main Macroeconomic Indicators For centuries Polish culture has been an integral part of European, Latin-based culture, as its art, music and architecture testify. Although for the last 200 years Polish culture has been dominated by the battle for the survival of its national identity, there have been many great Polish contributions to the development of European culture and science. The list is headed by the greatest Polish composer and pianist Fryderyk Chopin. Maria Sklodowska-Curie, the outstanding scientist who was twice awarded the Nobel prize for science. Two Nobel prizes for literature were awarded at the beginning of the century to writers Wladyslaw Reymont and Henryk Sienkiewicz. Two more in the same category were won in recent years by the poets Czeslaw Milosz and Wislawa Szymborska. In Fryderyk Chopin's mother-country, the existence of such world-class composers as Krzysztof Penderecki, Henryk Gorecki and the late Witold Lutoslawski is clear proof of the continuation of our great cultural tradition.
