\nOn Thursday, 3rd May, 7:15 pm \u2013 we will have a special event to Celebrate Poland\u2019s National Holiday, 3rd May Constitution Day.
\nAn Evening of Poetry and Music with Anita Jones D\u0119bska author of “Country of the Mind”.<\/p>\n

Having lived and worked in Poland intermittently over a period of many years, Anita Jones D\u0119bska has developed a passion for Polish poetry and for translation into English. She has published her own handmade collections of translations from the works of Jan Kochanowski,
\nAdam Mickiewicz, Jan Lecho\u0144, Leopold Staff, K.I. Ga\u0142czy\u0144ski, K.Baczy\u0144ski and other Polish poets. She is also the author of several anthologies, as well as collection of poems for children. Anita Jones D\u0119bska was already performing a number of times for our Society in the Polish House, and at the Irish Writers\u2019 Centre. Her performances were always highly enjoyable and popular.<\/p>\n

Wide-spanned wings\u2019 : poets of a royal republic<\/p>\n

To celebrate Poland\u2019s historical national day, a presentation in English of Polish
\nverse from the Republic of Poland-Lithuania, which was once the largest state in
\nEurope. Polish poetry of the late 16th and early 17th century has a freshness, variety
\nand humanity that can still touch and amuse us and seems to speak directly to our own
\ntimes. The poets represented include Jan Kochanowski, Miko\u0142aj S\u0119p-Szarzy\u0144ski,
\nSzymon Szymonowic, Szymon Zimorowic, Daniel Naborowski, Jan Andrzej Morsztyn,
\nZbigniew Morsztyn and others from that inimitable republic headed by a king.<\/p>\n

Light reception will be served and everybody is very welcome!
