Socialist realism in the polish literature

Socialist realism was a doctrine and also a period in history of the polish literature. It was proclaimed during Polish Writers Association's IVth congress which took place in Szczecin from 20th to 22th of January in 1949. From this time socialist realism was an official cultural policy of a communist government. Writers and poets created many books gloryfying Joseph Stalin, communism and Polish United Workers' Party. After Stalin's death there were some critical opinions about such a literature, but socialist realism was still being developed. In 1955 poet Adam Ważyk published a very famous lyric A Poem for Adults which described postwar Poland in a critical and ironical way. It was a turning point and after Polish October 1956 the policy of socialist realism was given up.
