Tygodnik „Ziemia i Morze” (1956–1957) a (od)budowa lokalnej tożsamości
The weekly Ziemia i Morze (Land and Sea) and the (re)construction of the local identity

Summary/Abstract: Published in Szczecin during the “Thaw” period of 1956–1957, the weekly Ziemia i Morze was a very curious phenomenon on the map of post-war culture. For a brief moment, in an environment so far greatly atomised and isolated, there appeared genuine intellectual ferment. The paper, as a part of the so-called thaw press, the most significant example of which was Po Prostu (Simply) published in Warsaw, was able to take on new topics, ones of supra-regional nature but also very important from the perspective of the local community. Over the few months, the paper attempted to describe the main components of the identity of West Pomerania, which for the purposes of this article were defined as follows: the awareness of space and its distinctiveness, the awareness of different experience and distinct ethnospace, the awareness of the coastal nature of the region and the awareness of the borderland.
