Ja wiem, że Jezus miał gorzej, bo mnie przynajmniej nie biją, ale sami wiecie - lekko nie jest. - “Kontrabas”, Olo Walicki, “Kaszebe II”
Do you know of any resources for someone wanting to learn about the Kashubian culture? Some of my ancestors were from the region and I'd like to get to know about their people.
Hello there! Here’s what I managed to find online today:
szkola.interklasa.pl/f019/strona/ang/index.html a site prepared by students of a school in Gdańsk with some informations in English about folk art, customs, symbols, etc., and a long list with basic English and Kashubian words and Kashubian proverbs among other trivia
en.kaszubia.com with interesting sections for example about history and more importantly a list of Kashubian bibliography in English (to verify)
kaszebsko.com/mapa-kaszub map with names of the cities and towns in the region of Kashubia, with a list of the names in Kashubian (standardized modern and historical names) and the Polish and historical German names
kaszebsko.com/hymn-narodowy.htm Kashubian anthem translated to Polish and English
glosbe.com/en/csb has many Kashubian words in the online translator
Long list of bibliography about Kashubia [pdf] by Maria Budziakowska and Joyce Chyrski for University of Toronto Libraries
‘The Kashubs Today’ [pdf] published by Instytut Kaszubski (Kashubian Institute)
‘Slav Outposts in Central European History’ by Gerald Stone analyzes history of the Wends, Sorbs and Kashubians (preview is available here on google books)
If someone knows of good online resources in English, please share!
For Kashubian folk costumes and embroidery you might peak into the tag Kaszuby on my sideblog polishcostumes.
Other than that, I have a draft with a list of Kashubian mythological creatures on my wordpress, I might move it to the top of my to-translate list if someone’s interested :)
