Language / Ideas of messianism of Adam Mickiewicz - more info needed [21]

But the problem is that most of them wouldn't be able to say much about things he wrote, because they aren't "easy" and these I had to read in high school seemed to be simply... weired.

Mickiewicz thought that Poles are a kind of... a chosen nation, which has some special mission... and I think that in his opinion It was that Poles through uprisings and suffering should encourage other nations, which like Poland were in 19th century under foreign occupation, to fight for their freedom... but I'm not 100% sure about that. Maybe someone else will write more.

gotowce.com.pl/prace/781_mesjanizm_mickiewicza_a_mesjanizm_slowackiego .htm

Looks like that what I wrote is rather messianism of Juliusz Słowacki... Mickiewicz believed in that special mission... he thought that Poland was... a Christ of nations :) and through own suffering should somehow liberate other nations, but unlike Słowacki he wasn't calling for fight, rather to wait for some savior...

So you see that dude was weired :)

There's plenty of things about that in Polish, you need to wait for someone, who will translate them better.

Life / Poland's Environment, recycling [79]

I wanted to ask if Polish people are as in to recycling as the English

Not at all until a few years ago, now a little bit, but not much. However we're in EU now, so there are almost the same environment rules (the same since 2012 I think) for industry and business in general.

News / What's the stupidest question asked about Poland? [414]

Once my friend was in UK and someone asked him to translate something for some Russian guy and when he said that he doesn't know Russian, reaction was like "So you don't have the same language in Poland?".

You guys live in Jungle with animals.

As your papa made you with a female dog, your knowledge about animals is probably better than ours.

Food / Bigos Recipe [151]

That's all. Is this the same thing as bigos?

Sounds like bigos.

I'm trying to figure out why they didn't call it that.

Kapusta is the core of bigos, so It simply is kapusta in some way. :)

Bigos doesn't have peas.

Why ? My father add mushrooms and It is still bigos.
