Polish Poetry Unites<\/em><\/strong> is a new video series for anyone interested in literature, history and reading. In each episode Edward Hirsch<\/a><\/strong>, a distinguished American poet, and the president of the Guggenheim Memorial Foundation, will introduce a celebrated Polish poet to American audiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One might say that the Polish\u2013American poetic connection started with the epistolary friendship of Adam Mickiewicz<\/strong><\/a> and Ralph Waldo Emerson in the 19th century, and the Polish Poetry Unites<\/strong><\/em> series’ animated title sequence is inspired by this fact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the spirit of this 19th century poetic friendship, Adam Zagajewski<\/strong><\/a> and Edward Hirsch, close friends, organized several bi-national meetings of poets in Cracow at the beginning of the 21st century.  At one of those meetings, Ewa Zadrzy\u0144ska<\/strong><\/a>, director of the Polish Poetry Unites<\/strong> <\/em>series, met Edward Hirsch and Robert Pinsky, the creator of the Favorite Poem<\/em> project, and thus the idea of the Polish Poetry Unites<\/em> video documentary series was born.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each episode of Polish Poetry Unites<\/em><\/strong> video series conceived by Ewa Zadrzy\u0144ska<\/strong> and Bartek Remisko<\/strong> consists of two parts. The first part is Edward Hirsch\u2019s short video essay about a featured poet. The second part is a short film in which contemporary Poles talk about the significance of poetry in their lives, while presenting poems by the featured poet. The short films presented in each episode were produced by Ewa Zadrzy\u0144ska and had been broadcast by Polish National TVP2 from 2006 to 2013.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the Polish Poetry Unites <\/em><\/strong>series, Edward Hirsch, the author of the national bestselling book: How to Read A Poem And Fall In Love With Poetry<\/em><\/strong><\/a>, explains why Americans should read these celebrated Polish poets:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In each episode Edward Hirsch, a distinguished American poet, and the president of the Guggenheim Memorial Foundation, will introduce a celebrated Polish poet to American audiences.\nOne might say that the Polish\u2013American poetic connection started with the epistolary friendship of Adam Mickiewicz and Ralph Waldo Emerson in the 19th century, and the Polish Poetry Unites series' animated title sequence is inspired by this fact.\nIn the spirit of this 19th century poetic friendship, Adam Zagajewski and Edward Hirsch, close friends, organized several bi-national meetings of poets in Cracow at the beginning of the 21st century. At one of those meetings, Ewa Zadrzy\u0144ska, director of the Polish Poetry Unites series, met Edward Hirsch and Robert Pinsky, the creator of the Favorite Poem project, and thus the idea of the Polish Poetry Unites video documentary series was born.\nEach episode of Polish Poetry Unites video series conceived by Ewa Zadrzy\u0144ska and Bartek Remisko consists of two parts. The first part is Edward Hirsch\u2019s short video essay about a featured poet. The second part is a short film in which contemporary Poles talk about the significance of poetry in their lives, while presenting poems by the featured poet. The short films presented in each episode were produced by Ewa Zadrzy\u0144ska and had been broadcast by Polish National TVP2 from 2006 to 2013.\nIn the Polish Poetry Unites series, Edward Hirsch, the author of the national bestselling book: How to Read A Poem And Fall In Love With Poetry, explains why Americans should read these celebrated Polish poets:\nEpisode 1 (April 2022):Cyprian Kamil Norwid (1821-1883)\nEpisode 2 (May 2022):Tadeusz R\u00f3\u017cewicz (1921-2014)\nEpisode 3 (September 2022):Krzysztof Kamil Baczy\u0144ski (1921-1944) \nEpisode 4 (January 2023):Zbigniew Herbert (1924-1998)\nEpisode 5 (February 2023):Anna \u015awirszczy\u0144ska (1909-1984)\nEpisode 6 (March 2023):Julian Tuwim (1894-1953)\nEpisode 7 (June 2023):Wis\u0142awa Szymborska (1923-2012)\nEpisode 8 (October 2023):Adam Zagajewski (1945-2021)\nEpisode 9 (December 2023):Zuzanna Ginczanka (1917-1944)\nEpisode 10 (September 2024):Ewa Lipska (b.1945)\nEpisode 11 (December 2024):W\u0142adyslaw Broniewski (1897-1962)\nEpisode 12 (April 2025):Adam Mickiewicz (1798-1855)\nEpisode 13 (June 2025):Papusza (1908-1987)\nEpisode 14 (November 2025):Czes\u0142aw Mi\u0142osz (1911-2004)\nEpisode 15 (February 2026):Boles\u0142aw Le\u015bmian (1877- 1937)\nEpisode 16 (April 2026):Adam Asnyk (1838-1897)\nEpisode 17 (June 2026):Ryszard Krynicki (b.1943)\nEpisode 18 (September 2026):Juliusz S\u0142owacki\u00a0(1809-1849)\nPolish Poetry Unites video series, which aspires to bring Poland and the US closer together through poetry, will be continued. Its mission is to show how much we all have in common when we talk about poetry. Three new installments of the series presenting Polish poets, their poems and life stories of people from different walks of life, lightened by poetry, are currently underway. Stay tuned and see you all soon for new episodes.\nModerator: Edward HirschWriter and Director: Ewa Zadrzy\u0144skaCinematography: Jacek Mieros\u0142awskiEditor: Anna J\u0119drzejewskaCurator and Executive Producer: Bartek Remisko\nEdward Hirsch is an American poet and critic who wrote a national bestseller about reading poetry entitled How to Read A Poem And Fall In Love With Poetry published in 2014.
