Lecture by Micha\u0142 Mochocki, Kazimierz Wielki University, Poland, in the “History@Play” series.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

History, heritage, and games: three steps taken on a journey through time. The talk will begin with an examination of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth (PLC) historical past. It will then introduce a framework of multiple heritage discourses that shape the collective memory of the PLC in 21st-century Poland. The framework explains the diversity of mental models used for worldbuilding and narrative design in Polish heritage narratives. All this leads to a demonstration of how these elements manifest in PLC-based game settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
