FROM KAISER WILHELM ALLEY TO JOHN PAUL IIND ALLEY: SZCZECIN/STETTIN STREET NAMES BETWEEN HISTORY AND POLITICS

Summary/Abstract: This article tackles the topic of street names and other public spaces in the city of Stettin/Szczecin within the last hundred years. As the city was placed in German Empire, Weimar Republic, Nazi Germany, People’s Republic of Poland, and Republic of Poland, the city and its inhabitants have experienced a dramatic change within this period of time. Many names of public spaces offer a deep insight of those processes. Most names have been changed and replaced several times; a very little part of them has remained the same until today. The article takes a cultural science orientation and offers two methods of researching. It is meant to be a contribution to further analysis.
