    Three Paths to One State: Polish National Identity under Russian, Prussian, and Austro- Hungarian Occupation after 1863 Research Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation with research distinction in the undergraduate colleges of The Ohio State University by Adam Wanter The Ohio State University June 2012 Project Advisor: Professor Jessie Labov, Department of Slavic and East European Languages and Cultures 2 Table of Contents: Introduction 1 Section One: Background 7 Section Two: Composition 15 Section Three: Imperial History 22 Section Four: Political Ideologies and Political Figures 37 Conclusion 50 Bibliography 54 i Illustrations: Figure 1, map of Russian Poland 8 Figure 2, map of Austrian Poland 10 Figure 3, map of Prussian Poland 11 ii Introduction After over 100 years of foreign occupation by three different powers, a common Polish national identity was able to emerge and unite the three partitioned areas. How was this possible? What conditions existed that were able to bring together three separate and distinct areas together? This thesis will look into the development of Polish national identity in the three partitioned areas of Poland during the late 19th and early 20th centuries and in particular the role that imperial policy played in its formation. The purpose of this thesis is to carry out a comparative study of the three partitioned areas of Poland between roughly 1863 and the outbreak of World War I. Specifically, the thesis compares the effects of the three Imperial powers on the economic landscape of each region, as well as the environment in which Polish political thought, specifically different forms of Polish nationalism, emerged, analyzing how that environment help contribute to its development.

The University of Texas at Austin, 2004 Supervisor: Katherine Arens This dissertation tests Benedict Anderson’s thesis about the coherence of imagined communities by tracing how Galicia, as the heart of a Polish culture in the nineteenth century that would never be an independent nation state, emerged as an historical, cultural touchstone with present day significance for the people of Europe. After the three Partitions and Poland’s complete disappearance from political maps of Europe, substitute images of Poland were sought that could replace its lost kingdom with alternate forms of national identity grounded in culture and tradition rather than in politics. Not the hereditary dynasty, not Prussia or Russia, but Galicia emerged as the imagined and representative center of a Polish culture without a state. This dissertation juxtaposes political realities with canonical literary texts that provide images of a cultural community among ethnic Germans and Poles sharing the border of Europe.

  • 1 Independence Regained
    1 INDEPENDENCE REGAINED The history of Poland in the modern era has been characterised by salient vicissitudes: outstanding victories and tragic defeats, soaring optimism and the deepest despair, heroic sacrifice and craven subser- vience. Underpinning all of these experiences and emotions, however, are the interrelated themes of national freedom, independence and sovereignty, which were sometimes lost, then regained, but never forgotten or abandoned. They, more than anything else, shaped Poland’s destiny in the modern era. And if there is one single, fundamental point of reference, then it is unquestionably the Partitions of the eighteenth century which resulted in Poland’s disappearance from the map of Europe for well over a century. The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, as the Polish State was consti- tuted since the mid-sixteenth century, was for the next two hundred years one of the largest and most powerful in Europe, occupying a huge swathe of territory stretching from the area around Poznań in the west to far-off Muscovy in the east, and from Livonia in the north to the edge of the Ottoman Empire in the south. Famous kings, such as Stefan Batory (1575–86) and Jan Sobieski III (1674–96), and great landowning families, the Lubomirskis, Radziwiłłs, Zamoyskis, Czartoryskis and the like, played a leading role in moulding the economic, political and social life of the country and bringing it unprecedented international prestige. By the beginning of the eighteenth century, however, the first unmistakable signs of decline appeared, and were accentuated by the emergence of ambitious and expansionist neighbours in Russia, Prussia and Austria.

Instytucja ta dotychczas pozostawała nieznana w historii polskiej pedagogiki społecznej i pracy socjalnej, niniejszy artykuł uzupełnia zatem stan badań nad dziejami kształcenia służb społecznych w Polsce międzywojennej, ograniczający się jak dotąd do wiedzy na temat Studium Pracy Społeczno-Oświatowej, zorganizowanego w 1925 r. przy Wolnej Wszechnicy Polskiej w Warszawie. W artykule przybliżono genezę placówki lwowskiej, wskazując na potrzeby w zakresie wykwalifikowanych pracowników pomocy i opieki społecznej oraz animatorów działań oświatowych we Lwowie oraz na terenach byłej Galicji. Scharakteryzowano kierunki kształcenia i plany nauczania, podkreślając ich wielodyscyplinarność, odpowiadającą różnorodności zadań stojących przed absolwentami Studium. Wykazano także powiązanie studium lwowskiego z warszawskim – jego organizację konsultowano z Heleną Radlińską, twórczynią polskiej pedagogiki społecznej, a wykładowcą był Józef Czesław Babicki, jeden z twórców polskiej pedagogiki opiekuńczej. Wysoki poziom kształcenia w lwowskim Studium zapewniała starannie dobrana kadra, naturalnym zapleczem naukowo- dydaktycznym okazał się Uniwersytet Jana Kazimierza we Lwowie, jeden z najważniejszych ośrodków akademickich w międzywojennej Polsce.

  • Canadian Historiography of Modern Ukraine, EWJUS, Vol. 5, No. 1, 2018
    Studying the Blueprint for a Nation: Canadian Historiography of Modern Ukraine Serhy Yekelchyk University of Victoria Abstract: This article discusses the development of a Canadian historiography of modern Ukraine. It argues that the early focus on Ukrainian nation building determined the range of topics that interested Canadian historians, but over the following years their methodology changed significantly. The development of social history provided indispensable tools for in-depth analysis of the Ukrainian national movement. The subsequent development of a new cultural history, post-colonial studies, and the “linguistic turn” allowed for a more subtle analysis of the Ukrainian patriotic discourse and practice. New scholarship focusing on the ambiguities of imperial projects and the everyday life allowed for a re-evaluation of the traditional emphasis on the national intelligentsia’s organic work. Because of its focus on the making of a modern Ukrainian nation, beginning in the 1990s Canadian historiography was well positioned to assist in the transformation of Ukrainian historical scholarship from Soviet models to new theoretical and methodological foundations. This often meant helping Ukrainian colleagues to revise the very “national paradigm” of history writing that early Canadian historians had helped develop. In the decades after an independent Ukraine emerged in 1991, the study of Ukrainian nation building became an increasingly global and collaborative enterprise, with historians from Ukraine studying and working in Canada, and with conferences on topics related to modern Ukrainian history involving scholars from around the world. Keywords: modern Ukraine, Canada, historiography, nation building, national movement. hen the Ukrainian-Canadian historian Orest Subtelny passed away in 2016, the prominent Ukrainian journalist Vitalii Portnikov wrote W that Subtelny’s Ukraine: A History “gave us Ukraine.

The Idea of Galicia: History and Fantasy in Habsburg Political Culture. Stanford: Stanford University Press, 2010. Illustrations, maps. xi + 486 pp. $60.00 (cloth), ISBN 978-0-8047-6267-0. Reviewed by Daniel L. Unowsky (University of Memphis)Published on HABSBURG (February, 2011) Commissioned by Jonathan Kwan Galician Fantasies Here I am among the Sarmatians. It is incredible everything that has to be done here.--Joseph II, Lemberg, 1773 (p. 30) The Idea of Galicia is a magnificent addition to recent works on Galicia, the Habsburg slice of the eighteenth-century Partitions of Poland now divided between Poland and Ukraine.[1] The book engages with and contributes to many of the major trends in Habsburg historiography. Yet the audience for this book should not be limited to students and scholars of central and eastern European history. The Idea of Galicia succeeds in integrating Galician and Habsburg history into the broader intellectual and cultural history of Europe. Larry Wolff, professor of history and director of the Center for European and Mediterranean Studies at New York University, is perhaps most well known for his extraordinary Inventing Eastern Europe: The Map of Civilization on the Mind of the Enlightenment (1994), in which he argued that the notion of a divide between western and eastern Europe--and the understanding of that divide as one between civilization and backwardness--was an invention of the Enlightenment. In that book, Wolff drew on a staggering variety of sources, culling quotations, anecdotes, information, and insights from maps, letters, travel accounts, plays, novels, pamphlets, and so on.

    Acta Poloniae Historica 100, 2009 PL ISSN 0001-6892 Magdalena Micińska THE POLISH INTELLIGENTSIA IN THE YEARS 1864-1918 The middle 1860s were an important turning-point in the history of the Polish nation, especially that of its educated elites. The tragic defeat of the January Uprising (1863-4) was followed by a period of heavy political repressions, profound social changes, economic challenges and intellectual revaluations. This period faced the Polish intellectual elites with the greatest challenges in their history and at the same time it began the decades when this stratum enjoyed a hitherto unknown social prestige. This was a time when the intelligentsia set itself tasks to which it could not aspire ever after. The people in the area within Russian partition underwent brutal repressions that affected not only the intellectual elite, but society as a whole. The human losses suffered in insurgent battles and summary executions were augmented by ensuing deportations to Siberia, the Caucasus and into the Russian Empire, which embraced about 40,000 insurgents and members of their families, eliminating them for many years, sometimes for ever, from the country’s life. Arrests and deportations were accompanied by confiscations of property. It is very hard to es­ tablish the percentage of the intelligentsia among the deportees (the Russian sources did not distinguish this social category), but certainly they included the most active individuals, those most conscious of and dedicated to the idea of a prompt reconstruction of independent Poland. Soon after the downfall of the January Uprising the Russians started a process of the liquidation of the separate character of Congress Poland.
