  • The Archaeology of the Prussian Crusade
    Downloaded by [University of Wisconsin - Madison] at 05:00 18 January 2017 THE ARCHAEOLOGY OF THE PRUSSIAN CRUSADE The Archaeology of the Prussian Crusade explores the archaeology and material culture of the Crusade against the Prussian tribes in the thirteenth century, and the subsequent society created by the Teutonic Order that lasted into the six- teenth century. It provides the first synthesis of the material culture of a unique crusading society created in the south-eastern Baltic region over the course of the thirteenth century. It encompasses the full range of archaeological data, from standing buildings through to artefacts and ecofacts, integrated with writ- ten and artistic sources. The work is sub-divided into broadly chronological themes, beginning with a historical outline, exploring the settlements, castles, towns and landscapes of the Teutonic Order’s theocratic state and concluding with the role of the reconstructed and ruined monuments of medieval Prussia in the modern world in the context of modern Polish culture. This is the first work on the archaeology of medieval Prussia in any lan- guage, and is intended as a comprehensive introduction to a period and area of growing interest. This book represents an important contribution to promot- ing international awareness of the cultural heritage of the Baltic region, which has been rapidly increasing over the last few decades.

As usual it was held at the elegant Wisconsin Club in downtown Milwaukee with monies raised going to support the Syrena Polish Dancers of Milwaukee. Attending the ball was Dr. Felix W. V.L. Holewinski, President of the Polish Nobility Association Foundation who has represented the Foundation at this event for several years. The highlight of the ball was the performance of the Syrena Dancers who danced the very popular Lancers Suit. Wearing the colorful uniforms of Napoleon’s Polish Lancers of the Imperial Guard, the dancers reenacted a typical formal ball held in Poland during the Napoleonic Wars. The dance medley consisted mostly of various mazurs (a dance popular with the Polish nobility) and ended with the sound of a bugle that signaled the Lancers to mount their horses and go to battle. As the Lancers march off with their sabers drawn, their elegantly gowned ladies bid them farewell. A sumptuous dinner was served before the dancing commenced and later during the ball the Grand Polonaise was danced, with everyone invited to join in, as pictured above. The colorful costumes and feathered masks were reminiscent of such balls which were popular with the Polish nobility during the 18th century and while a variety of period costumes were worn, a number of individuals wore period costumes of the Polish Nobility.

We will then begin to wind our way on to Ketrzyn, Warsaw, Krakow, Oswiecim, Zagan, and Berlin, where some of the fiercest battles of the war were fought. Guests who have traveled on this tour before rave about the charm of these historic cities and towns, the warmth of the people in this part of the world, and the many outstanding restaurants, some of which are located in beautiful buildings that date back to the last century.

  • Dr Alexander Majkowski: a Physician and Kashubian Writer and Poet
    Acta medico-historica Rigensia (2010) IX:99-114 DOI: 10.25143/amhr.2010.IX.05 Dr Alexander Majkowski: A physician and Kashubian writer and poet Anna Kotulska, Eugene J. Kucharz Introduction Kashubians known also as Kassubians (in Kashubian language: Kaszëbi) are the Slavonic ethnic group inhabiting the East- ern Pomerania in Poland. They speak the Kashubian language that is classified as the West Slavonic language belonging to the Lekhitic group of languages. Kashubians are the direct descendants of Pomeranians [1]. The Pomeranians came into the north- ern part of Poland about the 5th century AC. The region they lived is now known as Pomerania. The oldest mention of the region’s name is a seal of prince Barnin the First of Pomerania from the 13th century. The primary region inhabited by Pomera- nians was located close to the Parsenta River that was the border separating them Dr Alexander Majkowski. from the region inhabited by Veletians. Photograph from the last years Most of the Pomeranians lost their ethnic of life identity when Pomerania became a part of Germany and the inhabitants were subjected to extensive Germanization. Those who were living in the Eastern Po- merania survived denationalization efforts of the German state. Now in the East- ern Pomerania in Poland, over 300.000 people consider themselves as Kashubians. Some estimation indicates for higher number of Kashubians, i. e. 500.000. Part of them declares Polish nationality. In 19th and 20th century, Poland and Poles even when there was no independent Polish state significantly supported actions 99 A. Kotulska, E. J.

  • Merchants of War: Mercenaries, Economy, and Society in the Late Sixteenth-Century Baltic
    Merchants of War: Mercenaries, Economy, and Society in the Late Sixteenth-Century Baltic by Joseph Thomas Chatto Sproule A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto © Copyright by Joseph Thomas Chatto Sproule 2019 Merchants of War: Mercenaries, Economy, and Society in the Late Sixteenth-Century Baltic Joseph Thomas Chatto Sproule Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto 2019 Abstract The polities of the sixteenth-century Baltic competed and cooperated with one another and with local power groups in fluctuating patterns of rivalry and expedient partnership. Mercenarism thrived in this context, as early modern governments were seldom equipped with the fiscal and logistical tools or the domestic military resources needed to wholly meet the escalating challenges of warfare, while mercenaries themselves were drawn to a chaotic environment that afforded opportunities for monetary gain and promotion into the still- coalescing political elites of the region’s emerging powers. This study sits, like the mercenary himself, at the intersection of the military, the economic, the social, and the political. Broadly, it is an analysis of mercenaries in Livonian and Swedish service during the so-called Livonian War of 1558 to 1583. Mercenaries are examined as agents of the polities for whom they fought and as actors with goals of their own, ambiguously positioned figures whose outsider status and relative independence presented both opportunities and challenges as they navigated the shifting networks of conflict and allegiance that characterized their fractious world. The aims of this study are threefold. The military efficacy of Western and Central European professional soldiers is assessed in an Eastern ii European context, problematizing the notion of Western military superiority in a time of alleged military revolution.

Started by the Germans with the complic- ity of the Soviet Union, it led to unimaginable destruction and millions of deaths. Later, it brought many nations under Soviet domination for almost fifty years and left the world divided in the Cold War. Poland fell victim to the aggression of both totalitarian systems, German national socialism and Soviet communism. The Ribbentrop-Molotov pact entered into by the Third Reich and Soviet Union on 23 August 1939 was the prelude to a global conflict, started on 1 September 1939 when Hitler invaded Poland, the first country to demonstrate ac- tual armed resistance against the aggressor, ending the string of Berlin’s peaceful con- quests.

  • Solidarity and Identity in Memorial Crosses in Gdańsk
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Vol. 3 No. 6 [Special Issue – March 2013] Solidarity and Identity in Memorial Crosses in Gdańsk Lucyna Przybylska, PhD Department of Spatial Management Institute of Geography University of Gdańsk Ul. Bażyńskiego 4, 80-952 Gdańsk, Poland Abstract The aim of the paper is to draw attention to small and monumental crosses erected in in Gdansk, the cradle of Solidarity. The crosses, standing usually by the roads or on the hills, can be perceived as the sign of solidarity with the dead and alive as well as with the idea of freedom. They are also a visible sign of Christian identity. The inspiration for such interpretation of memorial crosses has been drawn from the analysis of polarized opinions of the portal Trojmiasto.pl users on memeorial crosses standing by roads and streets. The article also shows, giving an example of a northern Polish city, the process of sacralization of public spaces in Poland which has been taking place for three decades. Keywords: solidarity, identity, memorials, crosses, Gdańsk, Poland, sacralization Introduction The aim of the paper is to draw attention to various crosses erected in recent years in Gdansk, the cradle of Solidarity. Memorial crosses are common in many Christian countries. Apart from traditional wayside crosses erected in crossroads in the countryside there are crosses standing in front of Catholic churches commemorating „Holy mission” held every 10 years in parishes. Cemeteries in Christian countries have always been filled with symbols of Jesus`s Crucifixion. These three uses of the cross will not be considered. In contemporary cityscape there can also be distinguished two other unique kinds of the religious symbols in public space in Poland.

Wincenty A Polska]* ,By Maria Swiatecka TRANSLATED B STEPHEN MINKIEL, C.M. The apostle of the villages, the reformer of the clergy, society's helper in a period of wars and disturbances, and a defender of the purity of faith in the face of heretical Jansenism. Saint Vincent lived to see the expansion of his works not only in France but beyond her borders into Italy, Poland, Ireland, Madagascar and all those places in the world to which missionaries he trained would be sent. Poland was one of the first. He watched over it with profound solicitude. At the same time he was very interested in what was going on in the country. This deep concern was his not only because Poland was the first country to which, in his lifetime, he sent members of the two congregations he founded (the Priests of the Mission and the Daughters of Charity) to evangelize in turbulent times.
