I'm sorry, are you saying you're a ~MASTERS~ student and you don't know how to find your own research materials? Fair enough there might not be much on the subject in Polish, but most people here would only be able to link you to materials in English anyway. And if we can find them, you can. Have you spoken to your library or tutor about this? Ask if your degree provider has Athens accounts for it's students.

Try Google Scholar.

Yes I know that all the informations are in english and that's ok, because that's not a big problem for me. The problem however is, that I didnt found so many informations even in english. I thought some of You maybe know or have some articles about my topic. I really don't want to go to the easy way, but I've search so long and have not so many info. I think the Wikipedia site has a great and big article about my topic, but it's not enought for the masters work ( If there is somenthing You can do for me I will be very gratefull! I also search in my schcool but I've found a very short and smal peace of information.. I don't know what to do (

...and please question the accuracy of what you see in Wikipedia; since the information on that site can be changed by whoever wants to, there is a tendency for much of the information on that site to be false.

No one who uses Wikipedia as a source should be getting a Masters Degree.

That's not fair, MMM. Using wikipedia as A source is fine, the problem comes when you use it as your onlly or main source!

You can use it as a plAce to find other sources but I would be suspicious of any teacher accepting Wikipedia itself as a source.

What you can do: Teachers can slap a students behind if caught sitting on a desk

-Eat shrimp for breakfast and be considered normal.

-Be comepletely naked in water with many people of the same gender in a public place and be considered normal

-You cannot go on Yaoi rages and hit non-supporters with yaoi paddles.

Yep, Human rights are very interesting there . . .


My Life Sucks- The kids I babysit have drooled, ripped or drawn on all of the cards and put the cars with the little people in the microwave!

I have no Friends- The cats have scratched and destroyed all of the DVDs!

I always owe someone- In fact I put two os in it!

I always ruin my clothes with Bleach!- The show is so dom suspensful I spill my grape soda on them!

But . . .I'll live.
