  • Dear Students
    Dear Students, If you are holding this book in your hand you are most probably considering coming to Wrocław to study. And we know you won’t regret it if you do make the choice to come. The city is one of the most interesting places in Poland with great culture, rich history, a good university and – last but not least –a fantas- tic student atmosphere. Keep your eyes wide open and be ready for surprises. The country and the city have changed a lot in recent years, but you will still feel here like you are riding a rollercoaster between the modern world, uniting Europe, and an old fashioned eastern province. In this guidebook we are going to prepare you for this experience. The Jungle Book started in 2003. The idea is based on the assumption that foreign students planning to go to Wroclaw need a practical, fresh, sometimes subjective guidebook to help them to enjoy their stay from the very begin- ning. That’s why it was developed with great backing from foreign students, whose remarks and commentaries about living in Wrocław, both enthusiastic and critical, have been integrated into the text. The current third edition of the Jungle Book is divided into three parts. At the beginning you will find some general information about the history and politics of Poland and a survival kit concerning living in the country generally, without any regional, specifically Wroclaw’s, context. In the following chapter we give you a set of information about the University of Wrocław and student issues. The last section, and the longest one, is an extensive practical guide- book for Wroclaw’s newcomer.

The experience of the city changes into a daily routine made up of the same routes, tracks, buses, buildings. The monotony of sights and smells intertwines with the successive layers of memories. In the end, the subjective map of the city turns out to be nothing more than a set of overlapping anecdotes; an endless drift. There's no denying that people who live in the city perceive it tangibly, and they somehow internalize its palpable spirit through their body's memory. The city's persistent spectre keeps recurring in architecture, people's sense of humour, sentimental gestures, patches of greenery, benches, and alleys. Wrocław is an imaginary city created out of nothing. Moreover, it remains widely known for its soft spot for fantasies and urban legends. The swastika in the keystone of the Centennial Hall, the districts built on plans inspired by the symbols of the Third Reich, the underground mazes flooded with groundwater – all those myths, though endlessly ridiculed, continue to reveal Wrocław's symptomatic swing towards a fictional narrative lined with diverse traumas. This tendency was especially mocked by rule-breakers of the 1980s: the legendary LUXUS group and Major Fydrych with his Socialist Surrealism. The locality of Wrocław emerges at the intersection of fiction and authentic history. A lack of being designates the picture of this fragmented city.
