Sad Satan's Children: Stanisław Przybyszewski and Esoteric Milieus
Sad Satan’s Children: Stanisław Przybyszewski and Esoteric Milieus Karolina Maria Hess My whole life is summarized in this grand alternative: all or nothing. I chose all! Stanisław Przybyszewski (1889) Along the winded road of his life, Stanisław Przybyszewski (1868–1927) be- came a living legend; a legend he co-created himself, and of which he also be- came a victim. Widely known for his literary prose and poems rich in psycho- logical insight, his Satanic sympathies, remarkable self-confidence as a person and an artist, but also for numerous scandals and his alcoholism, Przybysze- wski was a colorful contribution to the European fin-de siècle. His intensive collaboration with artists from all over Europe made him recognizable outside of Poland, and his return to the country was welcomed as the coming of a prophet. As an author who in his works often referred to mysteries, occultism, and images of Satan, he has been noticed as an important figure in the scholar- ship of Western Esotericism.1 “Sad Satan” was how Przybyszewski was called by his contemporaries, among others – Tadeusz Boy Żeleński;2 the nickname is used often in Polish literary studies, and is not as controversial as it may seem. The term “Satan’s children” usually refers to the circle of artists around Przybyszewski that was formed in Poland, named after his book Satanskinder.3 In the title of this article it is used in a broader meaning, referring to the reception of Przybyszewski’s ideas. Even though he wasn’t personally involved as a member in any group of initiatory character, we need to refer to esoteric milieus of his time in order to understand Przybyszewski’s way of balancing on the blurry line between theorizing about and practicing occultism. -

PHOTOGRAPHY AND ILLUSTRATIONS Promotion Department of Katowice City Hall, Marian Drygas, Michał Sygut COMposition Miastostrada.pl PRINTED BY Zespół Szkół Poligraficzno-Mechanicznych im. Armii Krajowej w Katowicach PUBLISHER Promotion Department of Katowice City Hall ul. Rynek 13, 40–098 Katowice Foreword Welcome to Katowice, the capital of Silesian Voivo- deship, where the heart of the agglomeration beats! Katowice is an extraordinary city. And an exceptional one. While preparing this guide, we have discovered it anew. Walking around the city centre, we could not help the feeling that the builders who erected the tenement houses with such a great attention to detail wanted to create a modern space which cannot lack wide paved streets with sidewalks. In a word, our ancestors built the city in which the next generation of Katowice inhabitants can live comfor- tably. The history disrupted their plans a little, but the city centre looks impressive anyway. Taking a closer look at the tenement houses, public buildings or squares, we can guess the intention of architects, who wanted to build on the banks of Rawa river a capital worthy of Upper Silesia . 4 Foreword Katowice is a city created from coal and steel, but also full of greenery and harmony, a city which over the years of transformation has grown into a mo- dern European metropolis. Only today, walking down the streets in the centre, we experience a multidimensional transformation. We watch the subsequent stages of changes made thanks to numerous investments, effectively refre- shing the visual landscape of the city. -
Tyniec-Olsztyn Listopad 2018
Nr 90 (136) Tyniec-Olsztyn listopad 2018 Pytanie: Proszę cię Ojcze, powiedz mi, jak uzyskuje się pokorę albo modlitwę doskonałą. Co powinien czynić ten, kto wydaje się ulegać rozproszeniom? Czy wypada szukać pomocy w lekturze? Odpowiedź: Jeśli chodzi, bracie, o nabycie doskonałej pokory, pouczył o tym Pan słowami: Uczcie się ode Mnie, bo jestem cichy i pokorny sercem, a znajdziecie ukoje- nie dla dusz waszych (Mt 11,29). Skoro zatem pragniesz osiągnąć doskonały pokój, ucz się tego, co On zniósł i znosi. We wszystkim też porzuć swoją wolę, On bowiem powiedział: Z nieba zstąpiłem nie po to, aby pełnić swoją wolę, ale wolę Ojca mego, który jest w niebie (J 6,38; Mt 6,9). Na tym polega doskonała po- kora: znosić zniewagi i obelgi oraz to wszystko, co wycierpiał nasz Nauczy- ciel, Jezus. Doskonała modlitwa natomiast polega na tym, aby mówić do Boga bez za- mętu oraz skupiać wszystkie myśli i uczucia, by nie ulegały rozproszeniu. Aby jednak do tego dojść, należy umrzeć dla każdego człowieka i dla świata oraz dla wszystkiego, co w nim jest. Na modlitwie nie powinieneś mówić do Boga nic więcej nad to: Wybaw mnie od Złego. Niech się spełni wola Twoja wobec mnie (Mt 6,13.10). Myśl twoja niech będzie obecna przed Bogiem i niech pozostaje na rozmowie z Nim. Modlitwa ma miejsce wtedy, kiedy oddala się od rozproszeń i gdy widzisz, że umysł raduje się, oświecony w Panu. Znakiem, że ktoś osiągnął taki stan, jest to, że nie ulega zamętom i rozproszeniom, choćby kusił go cały świat. Do- skonale modli się ten, kto umarł dla świata i jego spraw. -

Katowice –Our City
Katowice –our city POLSKA Warszawa Katowice The Upper Silesia region was called ‘a jewel in the crown’ in one of the films made by Kazimierz Kutz, an outstanding Polish director. For centuries, this important and attractive region has been heavily urbanized and the most industrialized part of Poland due to natural conditions favourable for coal mining and metallurgy. Katowice, the capital of Upper Silesia, with a population of 323,200, is now one of the greatest economic, scientific, cultural, political and administrative centre in Poland. Katowice has become a place of substantial investment: transport routes, many banks, hotels, office buildings, the culture and science centres have been built here in recent times. The modern building of ‘The Silesian Bank’. The view of the city with ‘Altus’ office building. Katowice evolved from a rural settlement into a mining and metallurgical industry centre in the early 19th century. The dynamic growth of Katowice, which was granted municipal rights in 1865, is reflected in the richly varied architecture. The buildings which have survived until today represent a variety of styles, from the early 16th century wooden Church of St.Michael Archangel, through the examples of Neo-Gothic, Neo-Romanesque, eclecticism, Art Nouveau, functionalism and constructivism of the inter-war period, to the modern architecture of the latest days. A visit to the Museum of History of Katowice provides an interesting insight into the history of the region, its people, customs and traditions. The Neo-Romanesque Evangelical Church The Silesian Museum. built in 1858. Katowice is a well-developed centre of science and culture with many private and state owned higher education schools. -

Between Germany, Poland and Szlonzokian Nationalism

When language was legislated into the statistical measure of nationality in the second half of the nineteenth century, Berlin pressured the Slavophone Catholic peasant-cum-worker population of Upper Silesia to become ‘proper Germans’, this is, German-speaking and Protestant. To the German ennationalizing2 pressure the Polish equivalent was added after the division of Upper Silesia between Poland and Germany in 1922. The borders and ennationalizing policies changed in 1939 when the entire region was reincorporated into wartime Germany, and, again, in 1945 following the incorporation of Upper Silesia into postwar Poland. -
Historicizing German Depictions of Poles, 1919-1934 THESIS
Das Deutsche Polenbild: Historicizing German Depictions of Poles, 1919-1934 THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Paul N Niebrzydowski Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2012 Master's Examination Committee: Alan Beyerchen, Advisor James Bartholomew Christopher Otter Copyright by Paul N Niebrzydowski 2012 Abstract After the armistice that marked the end of the Great War, the continuing conflict on Germany’s eastern border contributed to the weakened German self-image. Poles, newly confident and militaristic after having witnessed the rebirth of their nation, stood as a perceived, and oftentimes real, threat to the German state and identity. The present work explores how the experience of conflict between Germans and Poles on Germany’s eastern border contributed to a change in inflection of German stereotypes of Poles. Though still bearing the mark of 19 th century stereotypes, which cast the Poles as backward and fit to be colonized, interwar propaganda added an image of Poles as an aggressive and militaristic threat to the German identity. The uprising in Posen and the administration of the Upper Silesian plebiscite stood out in Germans' minds as examples of Germany's weakening sovereignty, not only in the face of its neighbor, but also at the hands of the Allies. When the Nazis came to power, they employed a renewed rhetoric of colonization of the east. Whereas Germany's colonies had been lost after the Great War, the Third Reich hoped to once again colonize the east.
