The Mermaid Boroughs. Mermaid Statues in Warsaw and Copenhagen

Summary/Abstract: The article is devoted to two landmarks of Warsaw and Copenhagen, and it additionally makes a digression about the mermaid statue in Ustka. The author chooses not to offer structural or omparative analysis. Instead, he proposes to investigate the convergence and divergence of the symbols’ origin, their roots and utilization in cultural texts. Finally, he encounters fundamental cultural differences between the two, not so distant countries.
