About Cultural Wars Against Poland Sraith Leabhar

Is éard atá i Cultural Wars Against Poland ná sraith leabhar staire eolaíochta phoiblí a d'fhoilsigh an tIonad Náisiúnta Cultúir sa Pholainn. Clúdaíonn an tsraith an tréimhse ó dheireadh an 17ú haois go dtí an chéad leath den 20ú haois. Neartaíonn páipéar clúdaigh an-gharbh an teachtaireacht faoi chogadh, gharbhachas agus scrios. Cruthaítear móitíf leathanaigh stróicthe ar na clúdaigh trí stampáil dhall. Priontáiltear an taobh istigh in dhá dhath, dubh agus dearg dhian, agus na haicinn dhearga ag tagairt do dhathanna bhrat na Polainne. Ligeann ceangal Otabind do gach imleabhar oscailt go cothrom le haghaidh léitheoireachta níos éasca.

Unique Properties
The paper chosen for the cover – Antalis Curious Collection Matter, Goya White – is very rough, which strengthens the message. The tear-off of a page on the covers is enhanced by the dry-stamping technique.
The printing color of the inside of the books is two-tone - black and intense red. Red accents refer to Polishness.

The publication is devoted to deliberate diffusion measures against Poland carried out by neighboring countries. The series covers the period from the end of the 17th century to the first half of the 20th century. The issues discussed in the following volumes make it possible to see the continuity of the anti-Polish narrative and show how the distribution of anti-Polish accents changed depending on the current goals of the partitioning powers.
