Cultural transfer research originally developed in the German-French context. The initial aim was to identify the German contribution to French history and the French presence in German history. The German-French example offered the opportunity to write a European history that is not merely a compilation of individual national histories, but one that could reveal the highly complex intertwinings that form the basis of this shared European history. Against this background, the history of Poland over the last few centuries is particularly exemplary, because Poland, more than other European territories, has had to deal with foreign influences. The reinterpretation of German cultural imports to Poland, the history of Polish or multicultural cities that belong or formerly belonged to Polish territory, demographic movements and even the division or displacement of Poland have triggered cultural transfers that have shaped the entire history of Europe.
