It was an honor and a pleasure to host Minister Cienkowska and her colleagues yesterday!
Historia, która wraca do domu.
Po 80 latach do Polski wraca bezcenny, XII-wieczny rękopis „Collectarium lądzkie”- jedna z tych strat wojennych, które miały już nigdy się nie odnaleźć. To finał trzyletniej drogi, rozpoczętej odkryciem dr. Pawła Figurskiego i konsekwentnie doprowadzonej do końca przez Wydział Restytucji Ministerstwa Kultury i Dziedzictwa Narodowego.
Udało się ponad wszelką wątpliwość udowodnić, że manuskrypt został zrabowany Polakom podczas II wojny światowej. Dziś wraca tam, gdzie zawsze był jego dom - do Polski.
Ogromne znaczenie ma miejsce, z którego został odzyskany: Biblioteka Uniwersytetu Yale. Postawa tej instytucji pokazuje, że odpowiedzialność za historię i pamięć nie kończy się na granicach państw. Dziękuję Dyrektor Michelle Light oraz całemu zespołowi za zrozumienie wagi tej sprawy i uczciwą współpracę.
Przywracamy zerwaną ciągłość historii. Przeprowadzamy nawet najtrudniejsze sprawy do końca. Konsekwentnie będziemy upominać się o polskie dziedzictwo.

Experience the "wow" of walking into Sterling Memorial Library. #Yale
Often referred to as “the cathedral of learning,” the library was designed by James Gamble Rogers — architect of 18 campus buildings (1921-1935) — to pay homage to scholarship. Evidence of Rogers’s hand is visible in the reading rooms, alcoves, and study spaces throughout the Collegiate Gothic masterpiece, which was dedicated in 1931. Yale’s largest library is named for its benefactor, New York City lawyer and 1864 alumnus John William Sterling.

Remembering ‘Amnesia’: A new exhibit at Yale’s Sterling Memorial Library examines “Amnesia,” a groundbreaking video game released in 1986, and the library’s efforts to preserve it.
In the text-only video game, players inhabit the perspective of a man experiencing memory loss while staying in midtown Manhattan at the fictional Sunderland Hotel. Players must negotiate a series of puzzles to find much-needed clothes, leave the hotel, and navigate Manhattan’s busy streets. By gathering clues and avoiding innumerable pitfalls, they gradually discover that the protagonist has a fiancée he cannot remember, is being pursued by an assassin, and is wanted for murder in Texas.
A groundbreaking digital work of interactive fiction by the sci-fi novelist Thomas M. Disch, the game anchors “Remembering Amnesia: Rebooting the first computerized novel,” an exhibit on view through March 2 in the Hanke Exhibition Gallery: bit.ly/483lxQ3 @yalelibrary #Yale
