Sienkiewicz, Matejko, Moniuszko - this is the current trinity of soothsayers. Krasiński and Słowacki no longer exercise the government of souls. Only Mickiewicz with his unquestionable authority is at the forefront of everyone, but mainly thanks to the cult we have for Pan Tadeusz . So, Sarmatian nostalgia and dreams of power are still the basic fuel of national pride. It was not changed by Wyspiański or Gombrowicz. The luminaries of the People's Republic of Poland did not change it. We love our noble traditions, bravery, honor, courage and the Miecznik who lists this code of virtues to Damazim as a condition for applying for his daughter's hand. More than once, I saw the outrage in the audience when the director mocked this character and provided her aria with ambiguous quotation marks.

Nevertheless, the dispute with Sarmatia is the basic engine of our culture. Almost every Polish artist feels obliged to take part in this discussion. Almost every Polish viewer lively supports these disputes. Even generations that already seem cosmopolitan and for whom national virtues are a lame embarrassing topic from the school bench, really long to go deep into the past and discover the truth about their roots. So let's play it again and add here and now our conviction that the heroic poetry on which we were brought up also has its considerable price, which unexpectedly will have to be paid.
