Kresy myth
- ... that the Polish Kresy myth has been compared to the American myth of the West and the German nostalgia for East Prussia?

- ALT1:... that the Kresy myth "presents the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth not as it really was, but as many would like to remember"? Source: Zbudowany na takich fundamentach mit Kresów przedstawia Rzeczpospolitą nie taką, jaką była w rzeczywistości, ale taką, jaką wielu chciałoby wspominać. https://www.rp.pl/Rzecz-o-historii/308309959-Mit-o-polskich-Kresach-Wschodnich.html
- ALT2:... that Kresy myth presents Poland's eastern borderlands as "'the lost paradise' of Poland’s 'civilisational mission'" and the site of "bloody and romantic clashes with the Cossacks and Tatars"? Source: Those territories are known in Polish national mythology as Kresy (borderlands, outskirts) — the vast territories in eastern Europe belonging to the Polish state from the fourteenth to the late eighteenth centuries and again, in smaller scope, in 1919-1939. This is the “the lost paradise” of Poland’s “civilisational mission” and, at the same time, the bloody and romantic clashes with the Cossacks and Tatars. https://www.opendemocracy.net/en/odr/clash-of-victimhood-1943-volhynian-massacre-in-polish-and-ukrainian-culture/

All good now, after a slightly bumpy substub-to-draft start, now we have a nice DYKable material. Size, refs, hooks, neutrality, copyvio, QPQ, etc. all GTG. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 04:56, 2 November 2020 (UTC)
