This edited volume explores the historical, cultural and literary
legacies of Polish Britain, and their significance for both the
British and Polish nations. The focus of the book is twofold.
First, it investigates the history of Polish immigration and the
ways in which Polish immigrants have conceptualised their own
experiences and encounters with Britain and the British. Second, it
examines how Poles and Poland have been represented by Anglophone
writers in both fictional and non-fictional forms of discourse.
Inevitably, these issues are intertwined. Polish experiences of
Britain have been shaped, in part, by British ideas about Poland,
just as British notions of Poland have been transformed by the
emergence of large and culturally active Polish communities in the
UK. By studying these issues together, this volume develops a
wide-ranging and original analysis of Polish Britain.
