Jacek Leociak The Image of Poles in the Writings of Jews from the Warsaw District1 Introduction My intention is not to describe the Polish-Jewish relations during the war and occupation from 1939 to 1945. The irst attempt to draw such a synthesis, undertaken by a professional historian in the face of the Holocaust of Polish Jews, was the study Stosunki polsko-żydowskie w czasie drugiej wojny światowej. Uwagi i spostrzeżenia [Polish-Jewish relations during the World War II. Notes and observations], written by Emanuel Ringelblum in Polish while he was hid- ing in a bunker at Grójecka 81 Street in Warsaw (the study was written between the second half of 1943 and March 1944, and later edited and published by Artur Eisenbach in 1988). In the historiography of World War II, this issue has been present for a long time. Authors of books, articles, historical essays, and compilations of documents favor a synthetic approach,2 and relate to speciic 1 This article is an abridged version of the text originally published in Prowincja Noc.

Premierzy III RP Sprawowanie urzędu premiera to wielki zaszczyt, ale i ogromna odpowiedzialność. Prezes Rady Ministrów jest zgodnie z Konstytucją RP dopiero czwartą osobą w państwie (po prezydencie, marszałakch Sejmu i Senatu), ale w praktyce skupia w swoich rękach niemal całą władzę wykonawczą. Od decyzji, które podejmuje szef rządu, zależy jakość życia wielu milionów ludzi. Znane są dzieje narodów, które pod mądrym przewodnictwem rozkwitały, a pod złym popadały w biedę i chaos. -
They Fought for Independent Poland
2019 Special edition PISMO CODZIENNE Independence Day, November 11, 2019 FREE AGAIN! THEY FOUGHT FOR INDEPENDENT POLAND Dear Readers, The day of November 11 – the National Independence Day – is not accidentally associated with the Polish military uni- form, its symbolism and traditions. Polish soldiers on almost all World War I fronts “threw on the pyre their lives’ fate.” When the Polish occupiers were drown- ing in disasters and revolutions, white- and-red flags were fluttering on Polish streets to mark Poland’s independence. The Republic of Poland was back on the map of Europe, although this was only the beginning of the battle for its bor- ders. Józef Piłsudski in his first order to the united Polish Army shared his feeling of joy with his soldiers: “I’m taking com- mand of you, Soldiers, at the time when the heart of every Pole is beating stron- O God! Thou who from on high ger and faster, when the children of our land have seen the sun of freedom in all its Hurls thine arrows at the defenders of the nation, glory.” He never promised them any bat- We beseech Thee, through this heap of bones! tle laurels or well-merited rest, though. On the contrary – he appealed to them Let the sun shine on us, at least in death! for even greater effort in their service May the daylight shine forth from heaven’s bright portals! for Poland. And they never let him down Let us be seen - as we die! when in 1920 Poland had to defend not only its own sovereignty, but also entire Europe against flooding bolshevism. -

Acta Poloniae Historica 63 - 64, 1991 PL ISSN 0001 - 6829 Jan Molenda THE FORMATION OF NATIONAL CONSCIOUSNESS OF THE POLISH PEASANTS AND THE PART THEY PLAYED IN THE REGAINING OF INDEPENDENCE BY POLAND The regaining of independence by Poland in 1918 has been since then hotly discussed, though the discussions are becoming less sharp now that the generations which fought for it and could argue about their respective merits are going off. This does not mean that the importance of those events is less appreciated at present than it used to be. Just the opposite, looking back seventy years we increasingly realize that the revival of Poland had for many spheres of national life a significance that went far beyond 1918 and even beyond the prewar Poland. Indeed the recovery of statehood by this country must be regarded as one of the most far-reaching events not only in the 20th century but in Poland’s whole history. The fact that since the mid-19th century many other nations have won independence makes us seek far-reaching and universal reasons for this phenomenon which was spread over a long time. It had to do first of all with the shaping up of modern nations and with the growth of national consciousness, until then restrict ed to only some circles but now being the feature of many strata of society. “TO WIN THE SOUL OF THE POLISH PEOPLE FOR POLAND” —BEING THE MAIN PROBLEM IN THE PERIOD AFTER PARTITIONS The national consciousness of Polish society did not appear evenly in all its members. -

The Successor States of the Austro-Hungarian Empire in the Polish Diplomacy (1918–1920)
Retrieved from https://czasopisma.uni.lodz.pl/pnh [10.08.2021] REVIEW OF HISTORICAL SCIENCES 2017, VOL. XVI, NO. 3 http://dx.doi.org/10.18778/1644-857X.16.03.06 DARIUSZ JEZIORNY UNIVERSITY OF LODZ* The successor states of the Austro-Hungarian Empire in the Polish diplomacy (1918–1920) Summary. Austria, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Romania, the Kingdom of SCS and Poland are the countries referred to as successor states of the Habsburg Monarchy since they were established out of its ruins. This article focuses on how meaningful these Central European states were to Polish diplomacy in 1918– 1920, i.e. the period which was decisive in the creation of their independent existence. The aim of the article is to answer the question of how the gradual breakup of the unitary Austria-Hungary in 1918 was perceived by the Polish political elites. It will also examine what stance the government of the indepen- dent Polish state adopted towards the new countries that were being formed after the dissolution of the Habsburg Monarchy. All the states which were fully or par- tially composed of the former Austro-Hungarian territories are considered with the exception of Italy which was already recognised as one of the most important European powers and after its annexation of the Habsburg lands on the Adriatic Sea was even more of a power. PNHThe article will also explore whether the emerging countries played any role in the development of Polish foreign policy and if so, how significant this role was. A similar question can be asked in the case of the entire territory of the Danube Region. -

Part I: Galicia (Austro-Hungarian Empire) Abstract In this article we present diverse experiences of Polish math- ematicians (in a broad sense) who during World War I fought for freedom of their homeland or conducted their research and teaching in difficult wartime circumstances. We discuss not only individual fates, but also organizational efforts of many kinds (teaching at the academic level outside traditional institutions, Polish scientific societies, publishing activities) in order to illus- trate the formation of modern Polish mathematical community.

Problem Wielokulturowości Na Przykładzie Mniejszości Białoruskiej

The considerations presented in this article are an addendum to the issues related to the policy of the authorities of the Second Republic of Poland on national minorities and its influence on the internal security of the state. This subject was undertaken by the Author earlier when he analysed the activity of the represen- tatives the German and Ukrainian minority. The article presents potential factors which can destabilise internal security, especially at the social level, as a result of forces in the envi- ronments of the indicated national and ethnic minorities in the II RP. The presented argu- ments allow to conclude that during the whole interwar period the II RP authorities had to struggle with multiculturalism related to the presence of Belarusian, Lithuanian, Jewish and Silesian minorities because in their environment centrifugal forces were occurred many ti- mes and posed a threat to the internal security of the newly re-established Polish state.
