Reviews

(...) Tomasz Ewertowski's book Images of China in Polish and Serbian Travel Writings is the best way to get to know in detail how we experienced this distant land of our close friends over time. in Letopis Matice srpske. Vol. 507 (2021), no. 1-2, p. 212-218. The circle of potential readers of this book is extremely wide. It should be of interest to scholars of Polish emigration (e.g. the Polish community in Harbin), but also to all those who study travel writing from the perspective of literary studies; finally, it can make an extremely important contribution to the discussion of European representations of the Far East. in Balcanica Posnaniensia. Acta et studia. Vol. 27 (2020), p. 241-242.
