Jan Engelgard's Tournée

The editor-in-chief of “Polish Thought” meets with readers of “Polish Thought” throughout the country. The pretext for meetings is the promotion of the latest book by Engelgard „Russian syndrome. The case of General Anton Denikin from a historical perspective’. Meetings organized by the Polish thought Clubs are primarily an chance for Poles to discuss Polish-Russian relations without imposed top-down too. I have noticed that people from outside our environment come to our meetings, who are culturally discussing. For example, there were people associated with the left Stow. Generations or compose Club of Polish Newspapers. It is besides worth noting that the gathering in Krakow was an chance to honour the peculiar issue of “The Polish Thought” published on the occasion of the 2500th edition of Prof. Anna Raźna and Ireneusz Lisiak.

"When I wrote the fresh “The Curse of General Denikin” in 2008, I did not think I would return to the subject. I thought he was exhausted. He who was convinced after reading my basic thesis that in 1919 Joseph Piłsudski's politics contributed to the win of the Bolsheviks in the civilian war in Russia, remained and those who disagreed with this thesis remained with their sentence. So why did I decide to take care of Denikin and Poland's policy again at this time? For 2 reasons, it was a direct impulse to print the memories of Anton Denikin Karpiński's schoolmate entitled “Bad Times. Diary 1924-1943” (Ded. Klinika Klinika Language 2021). The second reason is the penance of inactive many false myths duplicated by not only amateurs and online sages, but besides by professional historians who do not accept facts and are subjected to the universal mythology of Polish history, reinforced by the additional eruption of hysterical rusophobia which occurs after 2022. After examining what was happening in Poland in 1919, I conclude that we now have a kind of "rerun from history". This was besides 1 of the reasons for returning to the subject," writes the author in the introduction.

So far, meetings have been held in Wyszkow (19 October), Krakow (6 November), Katowice (14 November), Łódź (16 November) and Gdynia (20 November). We know that the gathering is besides prepared by Klubowicz and our sympathizers in Przemyśl, Lublin, Białystok and Opole.
