lokujące się pomiędzy zachodem i wschodem

Polish to English Social Sciences History Jewish history
Myślę, że w swoich poszukiwaniach Pan XX, z jakiegos jemu tylko znanego powodu, chciał także lepiej poznać śląskie miasta, lokujące się pomiędzy zachodem i wschodem.

Dla mnie to dziwnie wygląda. Przecież wszystko lokuje się między wschodem i zachodem. A może ja coś przekręciłem?

located between west and east

'lokujace sie' rowniez nie brzmi dobrze;
'polozone' byloby lepszym wyjsciem;

a town lying somewhere between the west and the east

Another suggestion.

And a thought (or question). . . could the 'between the west and the east' be referring not only to the geography of the town, but also to its culture?

Or even, quite simply:

'a town somewhere between the west and the east'

Or without the article
Peer comment(s):

agree Iwona Szymaniak : I also had a feeling it might be a somewhat cultural meaning
