Geography
Poland is one of the 'Slavic' countries, smack dab in the middle of East Central Europe. In the Middle Ages, she would have been bordered by the Holy Roman Empire, Prussia (the territories of the Teutonic Knights), Lithuania,
White Russia, Red Ruthenia (the Ukraine?), Hungary. Settlement patterns tended toward fortified castles with agricultural holdings nearby; the Poles were generally agricultural, 'the people of the fields'.
Regions: Malopolska, Wielkopolska, Mazovia; Pomerania in the north, and Silesia in the Southwest, tended to shift in and out of Polish control. Principal cities included Krakow, Lublin, Sandomierz. later Warzawa.
Names
Polish first names were constructs early in period; later on they used saint's names. Surnaming practices in Poland were primarily locational (Jan from Sandomierz), descriptive-epithets (Boleslaw Wrymouth), occupational (Jan the Castellan), and sometimes patronymic and rarely matronymics were used as well (Jan, Jan's boy). Surnames were constructed with endings that told you the sex and the marriage status of the user.
Szlachta & Peasantry
The szlachta has been described as the 'gentry' or 'nobility' of Poland, but it didn't work exactly the same as gentry or nobility in other countries. The szlachta class, which amounted to about 10% of the population, was the class from which all knights and most court functionaries came, and they served the same purpose as nobility (warrior caste) in other countries, but it was not tied to owning land or feudal obligations. Szlachta families could be rich or poor-- the important, powerful families were referred to as the magnates. In theory, all the szlachta were equal; in reality, of course, the most wealth and land often equaled the most power. They referred to each other as Pan (lord) or Pani (lady); most titles were actually job descriptions: starosta (king's sheriff), castellan (keeper of a castle), palatine (administrator of a province), voivode. They were organized into rods, clan-like groups, whose troops fought as regiments and shared the same herby (heraldry) and battle cry. Males of the szlachta families all had one possession in common: the vote-- though only one male member of that family could exercise it, and of course allegiances and debts often controlled the voting!. They voted in local seymtlas, and elected representatives to the national Seym, or diet, whose original function was to confirm the king, but went on to be a national parliament.
Peasants could be divided into several groups: those that owned their own land, those that were tenants under 'German law' (money rents), and those that owed tithe or labor rents. During the 13th and 14th centuries, many nobles sold off or parceled out their land, either by direct sale or by German law development-like settlements, where they got rents; in the 15th and 16th centuries, because the demand for Polish grain was increasing, they re-instituted labor rents wherever possible and bound peasants to the land.
Heraldry
Polish heraldry is different from Anglo-Norman. Herbs, or devices, were generally held in common by all the members of a rod (clan), and were referred to not by blazon but by their names, usually the battlecray. The devices were usually simple, of the tamga (i.e. cattle-brand) sort; many appear to be simple line drawings later modified by description and reproduction from Anglo-Norman blazons. At the end of the medieval period, there were between 300 and 350 known coats. (Cities, Guilds, etc. who took coats of arms seem to have followed the general pattern of civic arms construction throughout Europe, though).
Combat
Like most of the other West and South Slavs, the Poles spent a goodly amount of time fighting with their neighbors, both inside and outside the nation. In the 1100s and 1200s, in fact, Poland was divided into separate duchies, all warring against one another. They also fought with the Hungarians, the Ruthenians (Bylorussians, Ukranians, etc.), the Bohemians, the Lithuanians (as external foes before 1386, and against internal rebellions after the union), the Mongol invasions of the 1200's and sometimes the Germans. After the Teutonic Knights subdued most of the Prus, they were known to encroach on certain Polish territories, ostensibly by way of getting to further pagan territories on the other side. Squabbles with them built up to the battle of Grunwald in 1410 and the treaty of Thorn in 1411, followed by more armed disputes lasting until the order was dissolved in 1525.
The preferred combat form of the nobility was, of course, horse cavalry, though infantry units certainly existed. The ultimate flowering of the cavalry were the 'winged hussars', hussars being a light cavalry form adopted from the Magyars. The 'winged hussar' outfits included an elaborate set of feathered wings which were supposed to alarm enemy horses with the whistling noise they made. More information about the Winged Hussars can be found on the web page:
http://www.jurekputter.freeserve.co.uk/polish/hussars.htm and in the exhibit catalog: Land of the Winged Horsemen.
Language
The Polish language remained an unwritten one until about 1500. All Polish documents were written in Latin, and it was widely known and spoken. It was said that a tourist could travel the length and breadth of medieval Poland, knowing only Latin, and make himself perfectly understood everywhere. Polish is an inflected language, so words have endings to show their place in the sentence and sentences can be arranged somewhat erratically.
Witam (ve-tam) means Welcome
Psiakrew (Sha krev) is a mild swear word
Dzien dobry ( djen dough bree) is 'Hello' or good day
Clothing
Clothing generally followed German and later Italian fashions, though there was some Turkish influence in late period. Hanging and 'pocket' sleeves were considered typical of late-period Polish garb; this may be an outgrowth of the huge coats with arrangements to let over-long sleeves trail.
Food
We now know a little bit more than we used to about what medieval Poles ate and drank. "Food and Drink in Medieval Poland" by Dembinska and Weaver, gives a nice overview though the recipes includes are only re-creations rather than authentic period recipes or redactions.
á Bread, usally from a combination of white and rye flours (the more white flour, the more exalted the position of the eater).
á Food was served into heavy trenchers made of bread, and white wheat bread rolls were served to the important folk at feasts. (Wheaten rolls -- manchet rolls-- could be bought from vendors on the streets, along with round twisted 'pretzel' type rolls and other bread and pastry treats.)
á Porridge or Gruel made either from flour or groats, usually millet. Oats were considered lower class, buckwheat and barley were introduced in late period. Depending on the thickness, these porridges could resemble other period cereal side dishes, such as frumenty. Rice sometimes graced the tables of the rich, but the poor made do with the seeds of grain-like manna. Hemp and flax seeds were also sometimes made into porridge.
á Beef was the favored meat, in many incarnations, roasted, boiled, etc. Auroch meat (wild beef) was considered a game dish.
á Game, including venison and other wild game, was consumed sporadically, but often harvested and used as diplomatic gifts.
á Pork was also popular, and in the form of fatt y bacon(salted, smoked or fresh) it appears to have been the most-consumed meat of the majority of the population.
á Poultry made a regular appearance but was not so popular as Beef and Pork.
á Fish appeared on the table on all meatless days (Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and other specified fasts). In the guise of salt herring, it wore thin its welcome in Lent. Eels, cod, sturgeon and many other fish were also eaten. However, fish were not eaten on meat days (perhaps because of the strictness with which the meatless fasts were kept!)
á Vegetables were common also: "the daily menu in Poland included at least one vegetable, either as a side dish or as an ingredient in a one-pot recipe." Dembinska lists onions, lentils, field peas, cabbage, fava beans and bean greens (among peasants), kale, white carrots, beets, parsnips, alexanders, skirrets, turnips, radishes, cucumbers and melons, as well as mushrooms. Vegetable Pottages and Composites were fashioned out a wide variety of green leafy vegetables, though some are only recorded as greens for pottage with no identifying names!
á Root vegetables such as turnips, white carrots, skirrets, cow parsnips etc/ were served on a regular basis. The prototype of borscht actually used cow parsnips instead of beets.
á Most fruit was eaten cooked -- apples, pears, plums and cherries were the most common, with wild strawberries and blueberries showing up in the records also.
The two main meals were the prandium (eaten between 9 and 10 a.m) and coena (eaten between 5 and 7 p.m.), and they were generally similar. Wednesdays and Fridays, and Lent, were meatless days, but special feast days were, well feasts.
The most common drink, Dembinska says, would have been wheat beer and small beer, followed by wine and mead. Spiced beer trojniak, and beer or mead flavored with fruit juice or honey were also drunk. Aqua vitae, probably distilled from beer to resemble whisky or vodka, appeared in the early 1500s.
Curiously enough, beet soup was not documented, but a borsht-like soup made from cow parsnips was eaten. Sauerkraut is common, but pickled cucumbers can only be documented to the 16th century. Neither modern bigos (game stew) or pirogi (dumplings) can be documented to the period either.
Religion
The majority of the Polish population was 'Roman' Catholic. Lithuanians tended more toward the Eastern or Russian rites. Priests continually complained that pagans and Jews were tolerated in Poland, and that Lithuania was not fully Christianized. However, we simply don't know enough about pre-Christian Slavic traditions to speculate on pagan Polish religion; Lithuanian paganism (which survived until 1386) is better documented. Some folk beliefs, like the reverence for Mother Earth and the ancestral Rodnitzhe (clan spirits?) may point to pagan survivals-- or perhaps not.
The large population of Jews in Poland probably has to do with the edicts protecting them and allowing them to hold land and farm (forbidden in most medieval European countries). Traditionally, Poles were ardent Catholics but prided themselves on 'toleration' of different religions, including Protestantism when it came along. Feasts and holydays were apparently strictly kept, and veneration of the saints (including St. Adalbert, patron of Poland) and the Virgin Mary was heartily practiced. (Poles celebrated their saint's day instead of their birthday.)
