Silesian Language - Culture

Culture

The Silesian language has recently seen an increased use in culture, for example:

  • TV and radio stations (for example: TV Silesia, Sfera TV, Slonsky Radio, Radio Piekary);
  • music groups (for example: Hasiok, Dohtor Miód, FEET);
  • theatre (for example: Polterabend in Silesian Theatre);
  • film (for example: Grzeszny żywot Franciszka Buły ("The Sinful Life of Franciszek Buła")
  • books (for example, the so-called Silesian Bible; poetry: "Myśli ukryte" by Karol Gwóźdź)
  • teaching aids (for example, a Silesian basal reader)

Famous quotes containing the word culture:

    No culture on earth outside of mid-century suburban America has ever deployed one woman per child without simultaneously assigning her such major productive activities as weaving, farming, gathering, temple maintenance, and tent-building. The reason is that full-time, one-on-one child-raising is not good for women or children.
    Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)

    All objects, all phases of culture are alive. They have voices. They speak of their history and interrelatedness. And they are all talking at once!
    Camille Paglia (b. 1947)

    The local is a shabby thing. There’s nothing worse than bringing us back down to our own little corner, our own territory, the radiant promiscuity of the face to face. A culture which has taken the risk of the universal, must perish by the universal.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
