Abstract
In this article, an interview that Thomas Mann gave to the magazine La Pologne Littéraire in April 1927 is carefully analyzed in the context of Polish-German relations. At the time, the public opinion of the Weimar Republic was dominated by anti-Polish stereotypes. In the analyzed interview, Mann looks to show a different face of Poland, depicting it as a country with a rich cultural heritage that is insufficiently known in Germany. His fight against anti-Polish stereotypes would not yield any visible results but his article still remains an engaging testimony of Polish-German dialogue.
