Polish Literature

Polish literature is the literary tradition of Poland. Most Polish literature has been written in the Polish language, though other languages, used in Poland over the centuries, have also contributed to Polish literary traditions, including Yiddish, Lithuanian, Ukrainian, Belarusian, German and Esperanto. Until the early 18th century, a major language of Polish literature was Latin, widely popular across all of Western and Central Europe at the time.

Horatius
Nie pytaj próżno, bo nikt się nie dowie. Jaki nam koniec gotują bogowie, I babilońskich nie pytaj wróżbiarzy. Lepiej tak przyjąć wszystko, jak się zdarzy. A czy z rozkazu Jowisza ta zima, Co teraz wichrem wełny morskie wzdyma, Będzie ostatnia, czy też nam przysporzy Lat jeszcze kilka tajny wyrok boży, Nie troszcz się o to i ... klaruj swe wina. Mknie rok za rokiem, jak jedna godzina. Wiec łap dzień każdy, a nie wierz ni trochę W złudnej przyszłości obietnice płoche. ~Horacy przeł.: Henryk Sienki ...more

Jeśli chcesz wychować zagorzałego ateistę, musisz udzielać mu surowych lekcji religii. To zawsze owocuje dobrymi skutkami.
