• Title:
  Germany, Poland and Lusatian Sorbs: a bilateral triangle
• Creator:
  Marti, Roland
• Description:
  The paper presents a new view on Polish-German relations, focusing also on Lusatians. The author sheds light on the role of Lusatians in the network of Polish-German relations, pointing out that they are in fact not bilateral, but rather trilateral. It is possible to describe them in this way if the classification is based on ethnic awareness, with Germans, Lusatian Sorbs and Poles facing one another. This trilateral situation may be even more diversified (between the standard German and Polish languages, there is also Kashubian and Lusatian, which can be divided into Lower Sorbian and Upper Sorbian; one must not forget about the Czech influences either). The author focuses particularly on the original, German-Lusatian-Polish triangle, in which the Lusatian Sorbs occupy the central position, as they are linked to both sides, even though they retain a certain independence.
