Why is there a children's book about a necromancer who sold his soul to the devil and met a gruesome end? Not exactly children's book material, if you ask me, but I really don't have any idea on how the polish think in this matter... 81.233.196.49 (talk) 17:11, 7 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Making children books all nice and fluffy is a 20th century invention. Just compare to the original brothers Grimm stories: kids thrown out of the house by their own mother during a famine, child pregnancy, cannibalism (also due to famine), kids dying to exposure, murders left and right. These stories were written in 19th century -- you can expect medieval stuff to be even less tame.KiloByte (talk) 23:38, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"Pan" is used in Polish as "Mr." or "Sir" would be used in English. Uzytkownik (talk) 00:52, 12 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

For this reason I think translating this all throughout the article would be a good idea.KiloByte (talk) 23:38, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sort of like Sir Quixote or Mrs. Butterfly? — Kpalion^(talk) 09:37, 14 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
