STŘEDA 27. 5., 17 h | Beseda s prof. Barbarou Szargot věnovaná Henryku Sienkiewiczovi, nositeli Nobelovy ceny za literaturu z roku 1905. Sienkiewicz psal „k povzbuzení srdcí“ v době, kdy Polsko na mapě světa neexistovalo. Vytvářel obrazy národní slávy a cti, ale také utvářel stereotypy Poláků přežívající u českých čtenářů v podstatě dodnes.
WHAT THE BUILDINGS AT LAUBY LOOKED LIKE
The block known as Lauby was divided into six parcels (lots). On each parcel there was a building that faced onto what is now Velká Street. This layout remained constant until the buildings were demolished in the 20th century. It is likely that the original Velká Street was wider than it is now, and that the first medieval houses lacked the covered arcades (known locally as lauby) which later became such a distinctive feature of the block and gave it its name.
The oldest buildings at the site were long, half-timbered houses with a single floor and either shingled or thatched roofs. Our current archeological knowledge of the site suggests that the houses had a frame-type structure. The structural skeleton was assembled from massive timbers, to which the builders nailed wooden planks and boards that formed the walls. The gaps between these wooden elements were filled with clay. All six houses had cellars in basement areas that had been dug out below the ground floor level.
