Abstract

To this day, there is a debate what date should be adopted as the anniver­sary of Poland’s independence. In addition to the present one of 11 No­vember, which has been established since the declaration of the Indepen­dence Day in 1937, there have been other proposals. What is important here is that, regardless of their positions, all those taking part in this dis­cussion share the conviction that independence must be proclaimed, and that it must be expressed clearly and widely. Freedom also manifests itself in the fact that the independence of the homeland is spoken about with­out fear but with joy.
