    POLAND Culture and Art ISBN 978-83-8010-013-8 www.poland.travel EN Culture and Art 3 Culture and Art Culture and Art 5 Culture: Our national heritage and the testimony of romantic reflections Polish culture is woven from the memories of past greatness and the dreams of a better future, and its national character is deeply rooted in Romanticism. In every branch of contemporary art, our rich Polish folklore becomes a source of inspiration for artists. nown for being very musical, Poles love dance and music. Folk melodies Kcan be heard in Chopin’s works, while Krzysztof Penderecki and Witold Lutosławski set new standards in the world of avant-garde music. Poland attracts a lot of attention, thanks to its talented jazz musicians and young artists excelling in the domain of alternative music. The poetry of Wisława Szymborska, recognised with a Nobel Prize, is appreciated in many corners of the world. Like Szymborska’s poems, many others’ works have been translated into foreign languages: the literary reportages of Ryszard Kapuściński, the futuristic prose of Stanisław Lem or the dramas of Sławomir Mrożek. Igor Mitoraj and Magdalena Abakanowicz are consid- ered ambassadors of Polish sculpture, with their monumental works arousing worldwide admi- ration. Roman Opałka’s and Wilhelm Sasnal’s paintings are highly sought after by art collec- tors. ▶ ▶ Poland has been home to many illustrious personalities, whose work changed the face of the world. Some were scientists, like Nicolaus Coperni- cus or Marie Skłodowska-Curie. Others shaped our reality in different ways, for example, the founders of Hollywood, Samuel Goldwyn and the Warner brothers.

    Acta Poloniae Historica 114, 2016 PL ISSN 0001–6829 Aleksander Łupienko Tadeusz Manteuffel Institute of History, Polish Academy of Sciences MILITARY ASPECTS IN THE SPATIAL DEVELOPMENT OF POLISH CITIES IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY* Abstract Military issues were deemed vital in the European politics of the nineteenth century. The aim of this article is to trace the most important implications of the ‘military bias’ of state authorities in the border region between the three empires (Germany, Russia and Austria – later the Austro-Hungarian Empire) which occupied the Central and Eastern part of the continent. Military authorities sometimes exercised a particularly strong infl uence upon urban policy. The two major issues addressed in this article are the fortifi cations (their creation, strengthening, and spatial development) which infl uenced urban sprawl – though perhaps not so much as is maintained in the scholarly literature – and the development of railways. The directions and tracks chosen for the railways were also infl uenced by the military plans, which in turn often differed much from the visions of the urban offi cials who made up the administration of the city. Keywords: urban development, nineteenth-century cities, Polish territories, forti- fi cations, railroads In 1898 a great Polish-Jewish entrepreneur, whose wealth came mainly from railroad investments, published in Petersburg a six-volume work Budushchaya Voĭna, translated into many languages (in English it was published under the title: Is War Now Impossible?1). In this work he * The paper is a result of research into the functioning of urban architecture in the Polish territories (1850–1914).
