  • Zu Den Nationalitätenverhältnissen in Westpreußen Vor Ausbruch Des Ersten Weltkrieges Von Stefan Hartmann
    Zu den Nationalitätenverhältnissen in Westpreußen vor Ausbruch des Ersten Weltkrieges von Stefan Hartmann Grundlage des Beitrags ist ein bisher von der Forschung nicht berücksichtig- ter Bericht über „Deutsche und Polen im Lichte der Statistik", Berlin 1916, herausgegeben vom Königlich Preußischen Statistischen Landesamt1. Seine Angaben beruhen vor allem auf der Volkszählung vom 1. Dezember 1910 und den bisweilen zum Vergleich angeführten statistischen Erhebungen der Zähl- jahre 1890, 1900 und 1905. Obwohl sich die Begriffe Nationalität und Mutter- sprache nicht völlig decken2, wird diese bei den oben genannten Volkszählun- gen doch als statistisches Kriterium benutzt. Bislang gänzlich unbetrachtet sind die Ergebnisse der Berufs- und Betriebszählung von 1907 in den städti- schen Bezirken der Provinz Westpreußen im Hinblick auf die Nationalität der Betriebsinhaber geblieben. Auf diese Erhebungen wird das besondere Augen- merk zu richten sein. Zunächst analysiert unsere Quelle die „Kopfzahl der Deutschen, Polen, Masuren und Kaschuben". Die beiden letzteren Nationalitäten wurden bei früheren Volkszählungen vielfach mit den Polen zusammengefaßt, obwohl sie durchaus eigenständigen Charakter haben. Bei den Masuren handelt es sich um die „evangelischen Einwohner Ostpreußens mit masurischer Mutterspra- che", die sich von den „polnischsprechenden Gruppen in Ostpreußen, nämlich den katholischen Ermländern polnischer Zunge ... und den meist katholi- schen Nationalpolen" unterscheiden. Ihr Siedlungsgebiet umfaßte die „ost- preußische Seenplatte" und machte etwa ein Drittel von Ostpreußen aus3. Im Gegensatz zu den ganz überwiegend in Ostpreußen beheimateten Masuren bewohnten die slawischen Kaschuben einen weitgehend geschlossenen Sied- lungsraum vor allem in den westpreußischen Kreisen Karthaus, Neustadt und Putzig, wo nach der Völkszählung von 1905 ihr Anteil an der Gesamtbevölke- rung 31,9, 31,04 und 69,45 Prozent betrug.

CONTENTS Whilst this is an experience common to all authors in a world where everything goes by approximation only, my present case is worse. I have not only to acknowledge the general human frailty, but to begin with special apologies. First, concerning the title. I am aware that the Preface and Introduction title of this volume is too narrow, but it could not very well be made longer, knowing that long Part I – The Scottish Trader (1) titles, once essential to a book, are now a fatal dowry on its way. I have therefore availed myself Part I – The Scottish Trader (2) of the very modern and highly diplomatic method of making excursions into the "Hinterland," that Part I – The Scottish Trader (3) is, to Poland proper, to Pomerania and Mecklenburg.

  • Specyfika Nazewnictwa Pojezierza Wałeckiego Jako Konsekwencja Dziejów Terenu1
    2014 SLAVIA OCCIDENTALIS 71 DOI 10.14746/SO.2014.71.9 ISSN 0081-0002 Małgorzata RUTKIEWICZ-HANCZEWSKA Poznań SPECYFIKA nazewnictwa POJEZIERZA WAŁECKIEGO JAKO KONSEKWENCJA DZIEJÓW TERENU1 Obszar Pojezierza Wałeckiego rozciąga się na północ od Noteci. Jego zachodnią i wschodnią granicę wytyczają rzeki Drawa, Płociczna oraz Gwda. To dzisiejsze tereny pograniczne dwu województw: głównie zachodniopomorskiego (południowo-wschodnia część) i w mniejszym wymiarze wielkopolskiego (północno-zachodnia część), w granicach których znajdują się miasta: Mirosławiec, Wałcz, Jastrowie oraz Tuczno i Człopa. Zasiedlanie ziemi wałeckiej – jak donoszą archeolodzy – trwało już około 10 tysięcy lat przed naszą erą, o czym świadczą liczne tzw. grodziska. Pierwsze wzmianki pisane na temat przeszłości okolic pochodzą z okresu wczesnego średniowiecza, lecz są bardzo lako- niczne i nieprecyzyjne (Boras, Walczak, Wędzki 1961: 17). Niewiele wiemy także o języ- ku (dialektach), jakim posługiwali się osadnicy. Wiadomo jednak, że ziemia wałecka znaj- dował się w strefie, o którą zabiegali Pomorzanie, Brandenburgia, później Zakon Krzyżacki, i Polanie. W dawnej przeszłości była zamieszkana przez Słowian. W XIII wie- ku utraciła swoją jednolitość etniczną na rzecz osadników niemieckich z Marchii Branden- burskiej. Powtórnie w graniach wpływów polskich znalazła się w 1368 roku na mocy układu między Kazimierzem Wielkim i margrabią brandenburskim Ottonem Leniwym (Boras, Walczak, Wędzki 1961: 39). Osiadłe tu możne rody niemieckie m.in. Wedlów i Golców przyczyniały się do napływu nowej ludności niemieckiej, początkowo na obsza- ry zachodnie ziemi wałeckiej. Na przełomie XVI i XVII wieku miała miejsce wtórna ko- lonizacja niemiecka, która objęła także obszary na wschód od Wałcza. Zdaniem historyków (Boras, Walczak, Wędzki 1961: 101) była ona niesprzyjająca dla ludności polskiej, ponie- waż w tym właśnie okresie rozpoczął się proces polonizacji osadników niemieckich, odtąd skutecznie spowalniany.

  • Crusade and Society in Eastern Europe: The
    CRUSADE AND SOCIETY IN EASTERN EUROPE: THE HOSPITAL AND THE TEMPLE IN POLAND AND POMERANIA 1145 - 1370 Submitted for the degree of Ph.D. in the University of London's School of Slavonic and East European Studies, 1994. Paul Vincent Smith -1- fi\ (LONDON) U:iv ABSTRACT OF THESIS This thesis uses the record of benefaction in Europe to the Military Orders of the Hospital and the Temple to measure regional crusading support and to provide a description of the contribution of countries outside the crusading heartland, in particular the Empire, Poland, the Czech lands and Hungary, to Europe's crusading enterprise between 1145 and 1291. Through critical interpretation of published sources and secondary literature, making use of more than 400 original documents, among them several from the Hospitallers' Prague archive which remain unpublished, it examines in detail, for the first time as a whole, the endowment of both orders and the establishment of their houses on the territory of the Piast rulers of Poland and in the two Slav principalities of Pomerania. At the same time it assesses the development of the Military Orders' estates in terms of the relative importance of initial endowment, subsequent acquisition, plantation of new properties and alteration in the terms of ownership; in so doing, it aims to contribute to the correction of a long-standing but erroneous model for the economic development of 13th and 14th century Poland. Through an examination of local conditions it postulates a model for the creation of Hospitaller and Templar houses and the evolution of provincial hierarchies. It examines available information for the internal administration of both orders, the activity of their officials, and the number, national- ity and regional connections of their membership.

  • Genealogy of William Remus
    The Remus Family of West Prussia: Volume II Part I The period around 1700 was not a good time for West Prussia. The Great Northern Wars taking place then led to warfare and destruction resulting in perhaps the loss of a third of the population. To repopulate their land (and generate profits), the Polish nobility sold the right to manage villages (called schultz privilege) and the right to mill grain to Germans. Thus, my ancestors entered West Prussia following the demobilization of the Saxon Army circa 1717. It is important to note that the Remus family of Kamenz were burgers (see the earlier section on Kamenz) and thus had some assets with which to acquire schultz privileges. This was the top tier of peasants although definitely superseded by the nobility. The first reference to the schultzes and millers in Remus family in West Prussia was in August Blanke's "Aus Vergangenen Tagen des Kreises Schlochau" (1936) where Johan Remus was said to be a miller in Rogonitza, the mill for Bergelau, and to a lesser extent Pollnitz, Kreis Schlochau around 1700. The article goes on to explain that Johan Remus sold the mill to Andreas Rogosznicki around 1720. Otto Goerke's "Der Kreis Flatow" reports that Johan Remus purchased the schultz privilege and the schultzengut in Lanken, Kreis Flatow in 1714 (that is, the right to administer a village and a manorial farm for the villagers to work on). The Johan Remus family also had the schultz privileg for Aspenau (Ossowo) in Kreis Flatow. An article by Walter Tesmer states that the Remus family was an old established family in the Kreis Flatow area by 1706.
