Polonia, From the Beginning is Book Two of the Series, The Polish Americans. Poles who came to America were one of many groups who arrived on its shores with new hopes and dreams. The families who settled in Milwaukee around the turn of the 20th century were bound together by culture, religion and language. Stoically, they faced the new world. In the early years, the immigrant families remained close to the customs of their native lands. Often rejected for their foreignness, or the threat they represented to more established groups, the residents of Polonia slowly make their contribution to the often changing society. In their adopted country, the sons and daughters begin the process of Americanization. The next generation, who sometimes forget their Polish heritage, think of themselves, primarily, as Americans. Of those born in Poland, Peter and Ursula Zbikowski arrive with a son and a daughter. In America, they have six more children and grandchildren. The next to arrive, Albert and Sara Kubiak, also emigrated with two children and have a third in America. Their daughter, Irene, marries Peter and Ursula’s son Luke. The Modjeski family comes from another part of Poland. Here, the husband, Frank, came first. He then sent for his wife, Anna, and their daughter, Helen. In America, Anna gives birth to six more children, expanding as farm families did in Poland. The drama is narrated by Olivia, a member of the current generation and a descendant of all of them. She ties the stories of the;families together. Olivia is a gifted college student who interviews family members and looks at their historical papers and documents to fill in gaps in her knowledge of her ancestors. By understanding the trials of older generations, blood to her, she hopes to chase away the demons she faces in her own life. In this account of family life and relationships, the reader learns what matters most, regardless of the circumstances. The dramatic, funny, unforgettable circumstances. Whether the characters are born in Poland or in America, their experiences, their problems and resolutions, resonate in the lives of us all.

In his fascinating new book, Polonia Reformata. Essays on the Polish Reformation(s), Professor Piotr Wilczek of the University of Warsaw discusses selected aspects of Polish early modern religious history and literature, introducing them from a new perspective and emphasizing the great role of Poland's radical Reformation in European intellectual life. At the same time, the author presents the varieties of religious experience and expression to be found in the Polish-Lituanian Commonwealth, and questions certain myths about Poland's Reformation and Counter-Reformation history and culture, which have featured in European historiography at least since the publication in 1685 of Stanislas Lubieniecki's Historia reformationis Polonicae. The book's general introduction about Polish "religion on the periphery" is followed by essays on the reception of John Calvin's works, the role of Socinianism, religious polemics and the major religious poets of the early modern period, including Jan Kochanowski, probably a Lutheran in his youth and an Erasmian Catholic later in life, and Erazm Otwinowski, the finest Polish-language poet in the community of the Polish Brethren (Socinians). In this engaging study, Professor Wilczek also looks at the broader European contexts that played an important role in the development of the Reformation and Counter-Reformation in Central and Eastern Europe. This meticulously researched book will appeal to scholars and general readers interested in early modern religion, culture, literature and history.

Located on the western edge of Lake Erie and at the mouth of the Maumee River, Toledo developed rapidly as a port and industrial and transportation center in the 19th and 20th centuries. Beginning in the early 1870s, Polish immigrants were found among the German settlers. By 1882, there were two Polish parishes established in two distinct Polish neighborhoods (Lagrinka in North Toledo and Kuszwanc in South Toledo) that continued to grow and expand through the mid-20th century. Toledo's Polish community was numbered among the 10 largest in the country and was home to the Paryski Publishing Company, which printed more than three million books in the Polish language. This book illustrates how people lived, worshipped, socialized, celebrated life, and maintained their ethnic heritage while also becoming patriotic Americans.

More than a century has passed since the first Poles settled in Detroit. The first communities were established on the east side of Detroit, but the colony expanded rapidly to the west neighborhoods, and Poles in Detroit still identify themselves as East- or Westsiders. The pioneers left Poland for freedom of language and religion, and to own property. They replicated village life in the big city, living in close-knit neighborhoods anchored by the parish church. Polish immigrants made cigars, built railroad cars, molded stoves, established businesses and breweries, and moved into the political arena. The struggles and triumphs of these early settlers are on display in the pages of Detroit Polonia, a photographic history that links future generations with their Polish heritage.

Since the start of the 2008 - 09 financial crisis, the Polish Overnight Index Average (POLONIA) has persistently been below the policy rate, suggesting a limited influence of the NBP’s open market operations on the short-term interbank rate. In this regard, this paper analyzes the behavior of the POLONIA spread and explore several potential factors that could influence the spread. An empirical analysis confirms that the negative POLONIA spread is related to a few factors, which include the existence of the structural liquidity in the banking system; bank’s unwillingness to lock up liquidity in the NBP bills; the frontloading of banks’ fulfillment of the reserve requirements; and external market sentiment. The analysis also shows the effectiveness of the NBP’s responses to the financial crisis and structural liquidity surplus.
