Kosicki (Assistant Professor o f History\, University of Maryland). \n\nKosicki helps to understand the c rises of contemporary Europe by examining the intellectual world of Roman Catholicism in Poland and France between the Church's declaration of war o n socialism in 1891 and the demise of Stalinism in 1956. In Poland in the 1940s and '50s\, a new kind of Catholic intended to remake European social and political life—not with guns\, but with French philosophy. This study centers on the idea of “revolution\,” examining two crucial countries\, F rance and Poland\, and challenging conventional wisdom among historians. I t examines generations of deeply religious thinkers whose faith drove them into public life\, including Karol Wojtyla\, future Pope John Paul II\, a nd Tadeusz Mazowiecki\, the future prime minister who would dismantle Pola nd’s Communist regime.\n\n \n\nWine – Cheese – Refreshments will be served \n\nMore information: https://www.polishinstitute.org/archives\n DTSTART:20180224T000000Z DTEND:20180224T020000Z LOCATION:CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H2W 2LG\, 4220 Drolet (corner Rachel) SUMMARY:Piotr H.
