Product description
Author: Sabine Jagodzinski
‘Great things are born amidst great dangers’. In the 17th century, such a great danger was the Ottoman Empire to the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. The struggles against Turkish expansion left lasting material and visual traces; fear was mixed with appreciation for the enemy, the role of the bulwark of Christianity – with a fascination with oriental culture. Sabine Jagodzski focuses on discussing the variability of the perception of the Turkish threat and its commemoration in the Żółkiewski, Sobieski and Radziwiłł families.
