Before and After Suppression: Jesuits and Former Jesuits in the Polish-Lithuanian
Richard Butterwick (University College London) Before and After Suppression: Jesuits and Former Jesuits in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, c. 1750-1795 In some ways the Jesuits exercised more influence in the eighteenth-century Polish- Lithuanian Commonwealth than anywhere else in Europe. Whereas elsewhere the Society of Jesus provided confessors and spiritual advisors to princes, in the Commonwealth it educated generations of nobles as republicans. The Jesuits ran more schools and colleges than all the other orders combined, and Jesuits were more numerous than any other single order. The research of numerous scholars has illuminated the multi-faceted activity of the Society of Jesus in the decades before suppression, allowing the revision of older verdicts on their supposedly pernicious cultural, political and educational role. This research is ongoing, but the present chapter will endeavour to synthesize some of it. It will first review the condition of the Polish- Lithuanian Jesuits in the last decades before suppression, and then consider some of the ways in which former Jesuits adapted to a variety of new roles within what was left of Poland-Lithuania. The Commonwealth was truncated by partition in 1772, reduced again in 1793, and its remnants were dismembered completely in 1795. Catholic Europe’s religious orders reached their ‘brim of prosperity’ in the middle decades of the eighteenth century.1 In East-Central Europe, the cup of monastic prosperity continued to fill throughout the 1750s and 1760s. This tendency certainly applies to the Society of Jesus in the Commonwealth. Following the announcement, but before the ratification of the First Partition, the papal nuncio to the Commonwealth, Giuseppe Garampi, carried out a thorough survey of its regular clergy. -

The Literary Heritage of Jesuits of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth
journal of jesuit studies 5 (2018) 421-440 brill.com/jjs The Literary Heritage of Jesuits of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth Barbara Milewska-Waźbińska University of Warsaw [email protected] Abstract Since 1565, the Society of Jesus promoted education in the humanities. The vast majority of the Polish nobility received their education in Jesuit colleges. Jesuit preachers, writ- ers, poets, authors of heraldic and emblem works—derived mostly from the nobility— were understandably deeply involved in politics. The legacy of the most outstanding Jesuit authors testifies to their active participation in public life. In keeping with the specifics of the Polish case, their literary production emphasizes not only the vita ac- tiva, but also animus civilis. Political and historical themes, as well as religious motifs, played a significant role in Jesuit works. The Society’s activities in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth produced important works in various genres of literature, a significant portion of which was in Latin. Their poetry and prose is characterized by involvement in socio-political issues: the stormy political events and wars of the seventeenth century had a considerable effect on the compositions of the leading Jesuit authors. Keywords Society of Jesus – Polish nobility – Latinitas – occasional literature Jesuits were actively engaged in the political and social life of the Polish- Lithuanian Commonwealth, which came into existence in 1569 after the Union of the Kingdom of Poland and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, through the two centuries of their presence there. Their literary legacy leaves little doubt as to their substantial contribution to the cultural heritage of the country.1 In 1 The most recent synthesis of the legacy of Polish Jesuits is offered in the volume edited by Ire- na Stasiewicz-Jasiukowa, Wkład jezuitów do nauki i kultury w Rzeczpospolitej Obojga Narodów © milewska-waźbińska, 2018 | doi:10.1163/22141332-00503005 This is an open access article distributed under the terms of the prevailing cc-by-nc license at the time of publication. -

Adam Mickiewicz in Russia 1824-1829
The Romantic Other : Adam Mickiewicz in Russia 1824-1829 Maria Magdalena Dzieduszycka Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Science COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2012 Maria Magdalena Dzieduszycka All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT The Romantic Other: Adam Mickiewicz in Russia 1824-1829 Maria Magdalena Dzieduszycka This dissertation examines the role of Polish poet Adam Mickiewicz as the Romantic Other in the formation of Russia’s Romantic identity during his Russian sojourn between 1824 and 1829. Analysis of Mickiewicz’s image as the poetic Other, with respect to his Russian contemporaries, reveals the process that led to the establishment of their individual and national identities during the transition from Classicism to Romanticism in the second half of the 1820s. Examination of materials gathered from a variety of sources – poetry dedicated to, and inspired by, Mickiewicz, reviews of his work, correspondence and memoirs – demonstrates how contemporary Russians perceived Mickiewicz: a Polish poet, all at once a representative of Western literature and culture, a Lithuanian bard, a Slavic Byron, and a poet who was also close to Russia’s cultural and poetic tradition. Special consideration is also given to Mickiewicz as the Other in Pushkin’s poetic paradigm “bard vs. prophet”, through which the Russian poet expressed and interpreted his own poetic identity in the context of Western and Russian literature. Such a multi- dimensional image of Mickiewicz reflects the Russians’ struggle to establish their own Romantic identity in response to Western literary and cultural models, as well as one that would reflect Russia’s own history and tradition.
