  • Contemporary Directions of Transformations in the Settlement and the Landscape of Rural Areas
    Contemporary directions of transformations in the settlement and the landscape of rural areas... QUAESTIONES GEOGRAPHICAE 39(2) • 2020 CONTEMPORARY DIRECTIONS OF TRANSFORMATIONS IN THE SETTLEMENT AND THE LANDSCAPE OF RURAL AREAS IN THE SILESIAN LOWLAND Janusz Łach, BarBara szczepańska Faculty of Earth Sciences and Environmental Management, University of Wrocław, Wrocław Manuscript received: January 31, 2020 Revised version: May 4, 2020 Łach, J., szczepańska B., (2020). Contemporary directions of transformations in the settlement and the landscape of ru- ral areas in the Silesian Lowland. Quaestiones Geographicae 39(2), Bogucki Wydawnictwo Naukowe, Poznań, pp. 55–73. 7 figs, 2 tables. aBstract: Rural areas of the Silesian Lowland, undergoing social and economic transformations today, have had a strong impact on the formation of the region’s settlement landscapes. Political and economic changes after 1989 have affected the development of rural areas, in particular of ‘privileged’ settlements for which the proximity of towns and a trunk road are favourable factors. The result of these seemingly positive factors is the escape of young people (potential farmers) to the cities and an influx of new settlers. This affects social behaviour and activity, as well as the visual rural landscape, creating suburban zones with residential and leisure functions. The village seems to have lost its typical character but has it really? The subject of the research is, therefore, an analysis of changes in the spatial and social structure of a rural village as exemplified by Borek Strzeliński, which allows setting out its functions. The research issue is to determine the level of social activity of rural residents and their attitude towards the local cultural heritage, which influences their identity and the value of the landscape.

  • Excerpt from Encyclopedia of Jewish Food
    Excerpt from Encyclopedia of Jewish Food Borscht Borscht is a soup made with beets. It may be hot or cold and it may contain meat or be vegetarian. Origin: Ukraine Other names: Polish: barszcz; Russian: borshch; Ukranian: borshch; Yiddish: borsht. Northern Poland and the Baltic States are rather far north, lying in a region with long dark winters, a relatively short growing season, and a limited number of (as well as sometimes an aversion to) available vegetables. During the early medieval period, eastern Europeans began making a chunky soup from a wild whitish root related to carrots, called brsh in Old Slavonic and cow parsnip in English. Possibly originating in Lithuania, the soup spread throughout the Slavic regions of Europe to become, along with shchi (cabbage soup), the predominant dish, each area giving the name its local slightly different pronunciation. In May, peasants would pick the tender leaves of the brsh to cook as greens, then gather and store the roots to last as a staple through the fall and winter. Typically, a huge pot of brsh stew was prepared, using whatever meat and bones one could afford and variously adding other root vegetables, beans, cabbage, mushrooms, or whatever was on hand. This fed the family for a week or more and was sporadically refreshed with more of the ingredients or what was found. The root’s somewhat acrid flavor hardly made the most flavorsome of soups, even with the addition of meat, but the wild roots were free to foragers; brsh was one of the few vegetables available to peasants during the winter and provided a flavor variation essential to the Slavic culture.

If by “miracles” you mean exploring the popular, hockey-like sports of Russia and Eastern Europe, Tr. Patrick and Tr. Dan sure do. In our middlesession group, we will learn about the “Miracle on Ice,” try out feet at ice skating, figure out and play bandy and floorball, and possibly invent our own hybrid-sport! And we’ll eat some nice food! Eastern European Folk Dance and Song Trs. Heather and Jonathan Stand up and dance! Open your mouth and sing! Come learn a variety of folk dances from different Eastern European countries. From Macedonian line dances to Czech polkas, we will explore a wide variety of dance styles. To rest our feet periodically, we will learn some traditional songs from different countries in this region, as well as learning a bit about the different countries where these dances and songs originated. We will even have one or two workshops with local dancers and musicians! Eastern European Folktale Fun Trs. Maureen and Laurie Who are the Baba Yaga, Kikimora, and Vodyanoy? In this course, you’ll learn about these and other famous characters from Eastern European folktales. You’ll explore their stories, uncover what the stories reveal about Eastern European culture, and create your own folktale-inspired project. You could choose to create a board game starring Russian fairy tale villains and heroes, a graphic novel or movie adaptation of a Ukrainian folktale, or anything else you can imagine! We’ll also visit the University of Pennsylvania to learn from an Eastern European folklore expert.
