  • An Imperfect Mirror. the Image of Polonia from Nord-Pas-De-Calais in the “Echo De La Polonia” 1998–2018
    An imperfect mirror. The image of Polonia from Nord-Pas-de-Calais in the “Echo de la Polonia” 1998–2018 IWONA H. PUGACEWICZ KEY WORDS „Echo de la Polonia”, emigration, France, heritage, information centre, journal, Maison de la Polonia, Polish minority, national identity ABSTRACT The article describes the magazine "Echo de la Polonia" on the background of the latest fate of the Polish emigration from northern France. Using the journalistic method, the content of the magazine was analysed in the context of maintaining the Polonia’s cohesion and national identity. The dissertation presents the origins and evolution of the magazine and the environment around it. It shows both the significance and incompatibility of content in relation to real emigration’s problems. It highlights its successes and failures, and the key role of the magazine in maintaining unity of the Polish emigration and emigration heritage registration. On the occasion of celebration of the “Polish year” in Pas-de-Calais region, president of one of the events, standing at the head of the Department, deputy Dominique Dupilet said: “A large part of our community is of Polish origin. We must do everything so that in the year 2100 or 2150, if someone comes here to examine the history of Polish ancestors, he or she finds all of his emigration past preserved”1. Ten years have passed since 2007. And although in December 2012 the Museum in Lens had its loud opening, and was called a second Louvre Museum, and a few months before the former mining area of northern France was inscribed on the list of world natural-cultural heritage, there were no declarations on protection or commemorating Polish contribution to the building of high position of cultural and economic region in the inter-war period.

  • Types of Dance Styles
    Types of Dance Styles International Standard Ballroom Dances Ballroom Dance: Ballroom dancing is one of the most entertaining and elite styles of dancing. In the earlier days, ballroom dancewas only for the privileged class of people, the socialites if you must. This style of dancing with a partner, originated in Germany, but is now a popular act followed in varied dance styles. Today, the popularity of ballroom dance is evident, given the innumerable shows and competitions worldwide that revere dance, in all its form. This dance includes many other styles sub-categorized under this. There are many dance techniques that have been developed especially in America. The International Standard recognizes around 10 styles that belong to the category of ballroom dancing, whereas the American style has few forms that are different from those included under the International Standard. Tango: It definitely does take two to tango and this dance also belongs to the American Style category. Like all ballroom dancers, the male has to lead the female partner. The choreography of this dance is what sets it apart from other styles, varying between the International Standard, and that which is American. Waltz: The waltz is danced to melodic, slow music and is an equally beautiful dance form. The waltz is a graceful form of dance, that requires fluidity and delicate movement. When danced by the International Standard norms, this dance is performed more closely towards each other as compared to the American Style. Foxtrot: Foxtrot, as a dance style, gives a dancer flexibility to combine slow and fast dance steps together.

  • Bizourka and Freestyle Flemish Mazurka
    118 Bizourka and Freestyle Flemish Mazurka (Flanders, Belgium, Northern France) These are easy-going Flemish mazurka (also spelled mazourka) variations which Richard learned while attending a Carnaval ball near Dunkerque, northern France, in 2009. Participants at the ball were mostly locals, but also included dancers from Belgium and various parts of France. Older Flemish mazurka is usually comprised of combina- tions of the Mazurka Step and Waltz, in various simple patterns (see Freestyle Flemish Mazurka below). Like most folk mazurkas, their style descended from the Polka Mazurka once done in European ballrooms, over 150 years ago. This folk process is sometimes compared to a bridge. French or English dance masters picked up an ethnic dance step, in this case a mazurka step from the Polish Mazur, and standardized it for ballroom use. It was then spread throughout the world by itinerant dance teachers, visiting social dancers, and thousands of easily available dance manuals. From this propagation, the most popular steps (the Polka Mazurka was indeed one of the favorites) then “sank” through many simplified forms in villages throughout Europe, the Americas, Australia and elsewhere. In other words, towns in rural France or England didn’t get their mazurka step directly from Poland, or their polka directly from Bohemia, but rather through the “bridge” of dance teachers, traveling social dancers and books, that spread the ballroom versions of the original ethnic steps throughout the world. Once the steps left the formal setting of the ballroom, they quickly simplified. Then folk dances evolve. Typically steps and styles are borrowed from other dance forms that the dancers also happen to know, adding a twist to a traditional form.

Debut novel of renowned slam poet Elizabeth Acevedo. Xiomara Batista feels unheard and unable to hide in her Harlem neighborhood. Ever since her body grew into curves, she has learned to let her fists and her fierceness do the talking.

So, when she is invited to join her school' s slam poetry club, she doesn't know how she could ever attend without her mami finding out, much less speak her words out loud. But still, she can't stop thinking about performing her poems. Because in the face of a world that may not want to hear her, Xiomara refuses to be silent Slog's Dad by David Almond - Art Do you believe there's life after death? Slog does.
