THE POWER OF THE STORY: From an Old Chronicle to a Modern Museum
-
Is history science or literature? Who has shaped our ideas about the past over the centuries and how? A medieval chronicle, souvenirs of national heroes, and a historical novel are different tools for community building. For whom were historical images and works of literature/film created? A new temporary exhibition at the Polish History Museum presents a variety of ways of telling history and the impact they have had on shaping Polish identity.
The exhibition ‘The Power of the Story’ at the Polish History Museum can be visited from 15 June.
The exhibition presents the media used over the centuries by artists, historians, writers and museum professionals to construct stories about the past, as well as the leading themes of these stories. The six modules show how we have told ourselves the history of the state and the national community, how legends were created, myths emerged and the symbols we identify with and contest were shaped.
