"The Acts of Poland" (White Raven) is simply a milestone in Polish historiography which changed our perception of the past. Prof. Andrzej Nowak, a respected lecturer and erudite with global experience, created a comprehensive communicative about the past of Poland, which is read like a novel. His work not only emanates literary quality, but besides combines the latest investigation from historical, archaeological, economic, art, culture and literature areas, creating an interdisciplinary and comprehensive analysis based on fresh technological achievements. Valuable literary critic Krzysztof Masłoń said that “The Acts of Poland” are the most crucial Polish book after 1989.

In addition, Prof. Andrzej Nowak is besides 1 of the leading experts in Russia in the world. His book “Poland and Russia” is an crucial analysis showing the sources of hard centuries of past between Poland and Russia. The author reaches to the roots of both nations, showing the differences between Russian and Polish mentality, where the erstwhile went towards self-rentalism, while the second developed towards the love of freedom.
Both of these works, i.e. 5 volumes of “Dzeczy Polski” and “Poland and Russia”, were now published in English and German. Thanks to this premiere, we managed to make a comprehensive and accessible presentation of Polish history, aimed at societies in the Western cultural circle. The main thought of this task is to supply an nonsubjective and multilateral position on Poland's history, taking into account its crucial moments, events and characters. This is besides a request for a minute if we take into account developments in Ukraine.
This large task was undertaken by the Polish Foundation of Humanities named after Vincent Kadłubek in cooperation with the publishing home Biały Kruk. Translated books now scope the world, especially libraries, academic, political and media environments. The task is intended not only to convey historical facts, but besides to show Polish past in a European and global context.
"Poland's Acts" is simply a unique chance to present Polish historical cognition to the world. Translating this work into abroad languages and its distribution to universities, cultural institutions and media across the globe opens the door to global cooperation and technological exchange. In turn, "Poland and Russia" is simply a valuable origin of knowledge, providing crucial lessons for the present. Prof. Nowak emphasizes the long-term confrontation between nations and encourages reflection on the challenges of the modern world, in which Russia has its supporters – besides in Poland.
It is besides worth to add that prof. Andrzej Nowak has already finished writing the sixth volume of “Dzeczy Polski”, which will be released in early November (of course in Polish). The sixth part of prof. Nowak's monumental series will bear the subtitle "The Flood and Fire" and will focus on 1632-1673.
