We invite you to listen to Prof. Przemysław Czaplinski’s podcast on Polish Culture of the 1970s. In this podcast Przemysław Czapliński, a distinguished Professor of Polish Literature and author of numerous award-winning works, explores in a highly engaging way how the economic, political, and cultural crises of the 1970s shaped Polish prose.
He focuses on writers Jerzy Andrzejewski, Tadeusz Konwicki, Marek Nowakowski and Kazimierz Brandys, examining their depictions of a society grappling with the erosion of collective values and the rise of individualism—changes that set the stage for Poland’s eventual shift toward capitalism. The lecture, held on 10 October 2024, was part of the MDRN lecture series and was organized with the support of the Polish Institute in Brussels.
