- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 11 Mar, 2026 at 06:30 pm – Wed, 11 Mar, 2026 at 08:30 pm
- **Event Description**: Please join us for Prof. Richard Butterwick-Pawlikowski's Inaugural LectureAbout this EventWhy does the most famous poem in the Polish language open with the invocation ‘Lithuania! My Fatherland!’? And why is its author, Adam Mickiewicz (1798-1855), variously claimed as Polish, Lithuanian, or Belarusian? Answering these questions will involve some statistical analysis and close reading of the twelve books of Pan Tadeusz (1834), during a journey back to the vanished world of Mickiewicz’s childhood. The lecture aims to show how the meanings of ‘Lithuania’ and ‘Poland’ in the first decades after the destruction of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth by the neighbouring powers in 1795 differed from those current today.About the speaker:Richard Butterwick-Pawlikowski read History at Queens’ College, Cambridge, and gained his DPhil. at Hertford College, Oxford. From a postdoctoral fellowship at Oxford he moved to the Queen’s University of Belfast and thence to UCL SSEES in 2005, where he has been Professor of Polish-Lithuanian History since 2013. In Warsaw he holds the European Civilization Chair at the College of Europe and is the Principal Historian of the Polish History Museum.Image credit:  (Mushroom picking) by  (1826–1911), cca  1860.
