Rozkwit

Rozkwit is a Polish noun meaning bloom or flowering, derived from the verb rozkwitać ("to bloom"). It can refer to the physical process of a flower opening and reaching full bloom, as well as to metaphorical growth and vitality in people, ideas, or communities.

In cultural and historical discourse, rozkwit is used to describe periods of rapid development, creativity, or renewal—often translated as flourishing, golden age, or renaissance. Common collocations include rozkwit literacki, rozkwit gospodarczy, and rozkwit kultury, signaling a phase of intensification in a given field. The term is inherently qualitative and relative, and does not fix a precise date; different scholars may identify different timeframes for a city or movement's rozkwit.

As a proper noun, Rozkwit can function as a place name, brand, or title of events or works in Polish contexts, and may appear capitalized to indicate such uses. When used in capitalized form, it usually denotes a specific entity rather than the general concept.
