If you want to know why the 'paganism went underground in the Middle Ages' narrative pisses me off so much, it's because there's a *more interesting* and *actually true* narrative about enduring paganism in the Middle Ages. But it happened in Eastern Europe, so I guess you're not interested
As I have laboriously demonstrated across multiple books and articles (and not just me, but numerous other scholars such as the great Ronald Hutton), this narrative is not true

Late to the party, but yours truly contributed to the Polish Review, as well! I had the pleasure of reading Women in the Piast Dynasty by Grzegorz Pac - you can read my thoughts in this volume.
