Journal of Adam Loga’s travels (1800–1831) from Leszno to Bonn in 1820. The dreams and perception of the world and Germany by a young Pole and tragic insurgent of 1831
Adam Loga’s journal is a source that details for us the dilemmas of young Poles living under Prussian rule at the beginning of the 19th century. It turns out that they perceived it as an opportunity to further their development and career. At the same time, they strove to keep the memory of Poland’s past alive. Many of the situations, sometimes out of the ordinary, described in the journal reflect their doubts and their search for a place in the world.
