At the moment, I read a book by Władysław Stanisław Reymont (born Rejment; 7 May 1867 – 5 December 1925) called Chłopi (The Peasants, 1904–1909), for which he got a Nobel Prize for Literature in 1924, one year before his death. It’s a wonderful description of the “good” old times.

Or stories by Eliza Orzeszkowa: “a winter night” and “Tadeus”

Boleslaw Prus: “Antek” and “shadows”

Maria Konopnicka: “the charitable city” and “our little horse”

Henryk Sienkiewicz: “In the land of promise”

Adolf Dygasinski: “the three tatars”

Aleksander Swietochowski: “Klemens Boruta” and “Chava Rubin”

Stefan Zeromski: “Sunday” and “strong desire”

I don’t like topics about, for example, the great Christian time, which had never really existed.

Henryk Sienkiewicz, for example, wrote wonderful descriptions about poor people and their problems and troubles in his later works (Yanko the Musician and other stories (1893)). However, his early works, like for example, “Quo vadis?”, are just Christian shit and he got a Nobel-award for it. Okay, Christian culture needs Christian heroes and epos. But can’t they feel how ridiculous this all is?

 

Maybe, I will try to summarize Polish history a bit always showing events in other European countries around Poland at the given moment.

Around a thousand years before our era (1 000 B.C.) north of the Alps and along the Carpathian mountain range and to the west to the Atlantic coast to England and Ireland, to the south till Asia Minor (today’s territory of western Turkey), there were the Celts trading with the Greeks mostly along the Danube.

It’s not clear to me (or even to modern science of history) but somehow, these Celtic tribes were pushed by Germanic tribes, settling around the Baltic sea, to the south or wandered there by themselves. The Celts plundered Rome in 390 BC and pillaged even Delphi in 279 BC.

Interesting: Why did the Romans call the Celts “Gallus” and “Gallia” the name for today’s territory of France?

The Romans were rather small people, around 5 feet tall, and the Celts were one foot taller, around 6 feet.

The Celts wore long hair and when they went to war, they glued their hair up with clay and honey and sometimes painted it blue so that they seemed to be 7 feet tall.

The Celts had a very big shield and a very long iron stick of 7 feet, which they swung over their heads like a slingshot.

Additionally, they shouted what their throats could take.

Now, imagine what a small Roman felt in front of such a giant! He thought that this had to be some kind of giant rooster, not with red but a blue cockscomb.

Therefore, “gallus” in Latin means “rooster”.

 

My next message will be about Germanic tribes meeting Slavonic tribes in the 6th century of our era (6th AD).

In my previous message, I told you about the Celts and that it’s not clear whether Germanic tribes pushed them to the south or whether they went to fight the Romans and Greeks out of their own initiative.

Important is that Germanic tribes got into heavy fighting with the Romans from the first century BC onwards. Sometimes they were defeated and sometimes winners. During one of those encounters between Romans and Germanic tribes in the Teutoburg forest in 9 AD, the Romans were defeated so completely that not even one Roman soldier survived the battle to bring the bad news to Cesar August. (The Teutoburg Forest is a range of low, forested hills in the German states of Lower Saxony and North Rhine-Westphalia.)

Today, there are stupid German nationalists, who claim this to be the first Germans to fight for their nation. (Germany as it is known today was founded by Bismarck in 1871 and the title of the “Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation” was created in 1512)

The Romans always tried to integrate subjected peoples in their empire. However, the invasion of the Huns in 375 BC and later the invasion of Slavic / Slavonic tribes between 500 and 700 BC was very different. The Huns and Slavic tribes were looking for new habitats and therefore chased away everybody in their way.

There is a tragic event in Germanic mythology called “Ragnarök”, which symbolizes a battle and the end of the world and its gods and afterwards a kind of resurrection of the world.

In my eyes, the encounter and struggle between Germanic tribes and Huns and Slavonic tribes probably reflects this event in Germanic mythology.

 

In my next message, I will write about Slavonic mythology.

I feel like a Germanic god being charmed and enchanted by you, a Slavonic goddess!

Principally, there are three main mythological theories about the beginning of the world.

1) a woman lay down in the water and was fertilized by the rain.

2) three or four giant whales are carrying the land mass on their back

3) the Proto-Indo-European religion, (proto = first, foremost, earliest form), which believes that there was a giant tree, which, at the same time, represented the social classes (1. priest / noble, 2. warriors and 3. farmers / servants)

Slavic mythology is part of the Proto-Indo-European religion with a three-tiered vertical structure, or "world tree". At the top there is the heavenly plane, symbolised by birds, the sun and the moon; the middle plane is that of earthly humanity, symbolised by bees and men; at the bottom of the structure there is the netherworld or underworld, symbolised by snakes and beavers, and by the god Veles (white for Heaven, green for Earth and black for the underworld).

And then, of course, there was a cosmic duality, represented by Belobog ("White God") and Chernobog ("Black God", also named Tiarnoglofi, "Black Head/Mind"), representing the root of all the heavenly-masculine and the earthly-feminine.

Night and day or sun and moon: the moon (Russian: Mesyats) was male and the sun (Solntse) was female.

The moon-god was particularly important, regarded as the dispenser of abundance and health, the progenitor of mankind.

There are many other gods and goddesses as well:

- Rod a supreme God as life-giver, sometimes maybe Svetovid ("Lord of Power")

- Mokosh (Old East Slavic: Мóкошь), the Slavic mother goddess (Mat Syra Zemlya, the “Damp Mother Earth”), protector of women's work and women's destiny. She watches over spinning and weaving, shearing of sheep and protects women in childbirth.

- Leshy was an important woodland spirit, believed to distribute food and preys to hunters, later regarded as a god of flocks and herds.

- Bregynja or Beregynja (from breg, bereg, meaning "shore") and reinterpreted as female water spirits.

- Then spirits of waters (mavka and rusalka), forests (lisovyk), fields (polyovyk), those of households (domovoy), those of illnesses, luck and human ancestors.

- Rugievit in Charenza was represented with seven faces (three for the three-tiered tree and four for the west, south, east and north).

Many gods were regarded by kins as their ancestors.

The Poles accepted Christianism in 966. However, many rebellions against Christianism broke out throughout the 11th century.

When the first Slavic tribes arrived in Eastern Europe between 500 and 700 AD., there were no real state organizations in the region. The peoples living there were only bound to their tribes. The Estonians, Veps and other Finno-Ugric tribes were fast overrun. However, Lithuanians and Germanic tribes were better organized and resided in bigger groups, nevertheless still weakened by the Huns’ devastating activity a century earlier.

There must have been much fighting, which caused a kind of trauma in Germanic tribes visible in their mythology (first the Huns and then the Slavic tribes resulted in “Ragnarök”, the battle at the end of the world).

The Germanic tribes lost the fight and had to retreat behind the Oder and Neisse rivers and todays Czech republic.

Further south inhabited by the Eastern Goths and Gepids (both are Germanic tribes too), the whole Carpathian basin till the Balkan mountain range and to the Adriatic Sea fell into the hands of Slavic tribes. They were only really stopped by the Eastern Roman empire.

Very interesting:

- For over 1 300 years, Germanic tribes tried to reconquer these territories again and again.

The last big attempt was Hitler’s with the slogan “Lebensraum im Osten” = “Habitat in the east”.

- Why is “German” called “Немецкий” in Russian? The word originally derives from the stem “немой”, which means “mute”. Slavic people probably couldn’t understand Germanic speech and therefore thought that Germanic people are mute. Only after many centuries did they make a difference between German, Dutch, Danish, Swedish and so on but the Germans remained “mute”.

In the 7th century, the Frankish merchant Samo supported the Slavs against their Avar (Several historians suggest that the Avars are of Turkic origin having come a long way from the Aral sea) rulers and became the ruler of the first known Slav state in Central Europe, Samo's Empire. It was the first Slavic empire in the middle of the 7th century and included the Sorbians / Dervans, the Czechs, Moravians, the Wends and partly Slovaks.

Poland was established as a state under the Piast dynasty, which ruled the country between the 10th and 14th centuries. Historical records referring to the Polish state begin with the rule of Duke Mieszko I, whose reign began sometime before 963 and ended with his death in 992.

The Kievan Rus was the first East Slavic state. It reached its peak in the early to mid-11th century. In 880, King Oleg moved the capital of the Rus from Novgorod to Kiev. This was the start of the Kievan Rus. King Oleg led the Rus in many conquests including attacks against Byzantium.

 

However, what happened in the rest of the then known world?

The famous library in Alexandria was burnt down in 473 and about 120,000 volumes were lost.

Justinian I was emperor of the Byzantine Empire from 527 to 565. He had Roman law summarized and the last Academy in Athens closed (529).

In 711 the Islamic Arabs, Moors and Berbers attacked Spain and Charles Martel (c. 688 – 22 October 741) defeated them in the Battle of Tours-Poitiers (France) in 732.

Charles the great was crowned Cesar by the pope in 800.

The First Iconoclasm ("image struggle" or "war on icons") happened between about 726 and 787. The Second Iconoclasm was between 814 and 842.

 

At that time, there were no political posters on the street but the Cesar wanted himself to be popular. Therefore, he had himself painted many times and the paintings carried around in the city. Religious leaders thought that only god should be depicted on icons. Therefore, they destroyed the Cesar’s pictures.

I have many pictures of you and I look at them as if they were icons of a goddess!
