Type: article
Abstract: The article reviews the literature and sources related to the topic that so far has not been properly explored, described, and evaluated, that is, the perception of Poland in 1939 in the USA – the state that took a neutral stance with regard to the situation in Europe – and the American observations of the Polish Republic preparing itself to overcome the German attack and fight against the Nazis, and soon the Soviet aggression. Author also refers to the repercussions of the Polish Campaign in the American media, and recalls the activity of Julien H. Bryan, an American documentary film maker. He was the person, who depicted the struggles of Poland on film and on photographs. The text points out the necessity to conduct wide-range analysis of elements described and released in the USA, including material published by Polonia’s press. Author proposes a project of a study to evaluate Polish information and propaganda efforts and their results on the American ground.
