Poland and Britain Connections Poland and Britain Connections http://www.collaborativelearning.org/britainpoland.pdf Poland and Britain - Connections This set of activities is currently developing as a response to racist behaviour towards Polish new arrivals in classrooms in rural areas where the presence of other ethnic groups is new and ignorance is shared by adults and children. The activities are designed to acquaint pupils with the connections that have been taking place since the twelfth century or earlier when Norman knights went crusading in Poland up to the time when after the invasions of Poland in 1939 many Polish soldiers, sailors and airmen came to Britain and made a significant contribution to the war effort. With help of colleagues in Poland I hope we can bring the history closer to the present, but I sense that we will be looking at historical sources which are still very controversial. Currently we have two (maybe three) activities in the pipeline: 1. A 'sort out the clues' activity to complete a timeline introducing events from Polish history (bottom of timeline) and events from joint Great Britain/Polish history (top of timeline). 2. An information/transformations activity introducing a class set and more of people, events, artefacts for sharing and researching. 3. A timeline and mapping activity along the lines of our Anglo Saxon dates activity where small groups study different periods of Polish history to research and present to the rest of the class. I must emphasise at this stage that the activities are tentative and we welcome your comments and suggestions. If you have Polish students or teachers in your school please ask them to help us. http://www.collaborativelearning.org/britainpoland.pdf Britain and Poland; characters, events and objects for transformation activity.

  • The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth As a Political Space: Its Unity and Complexity*
    Chapter 8 The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth as a Political Space: Its Unity and Complexity* Satoshi Koyama Introduction The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth (Rzeczpospolita) was one of the largest states in early modern Europe. In the second half of the sixteenth century, after the union of Lublin (1569), the Polish-Lithuanian state covered an area of 815,000 square kilometres. It attained its greatest extent (990,000 square kilometres) in the first half of the seventeenth century. On the European continent there were only two larger countries than Poland-Lithuania: the Grand Duchy of Moscow (c.5,400,000 square kilometres) and the European territories of the Ottoman Empire (840,000 square kilometres). Therefore the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was the largest country in Latin-Christian Europe in the early modern period (Wyczański 1973: 17–8). In this paper I discuss the internal diversity of the Commonwealth in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and consider how such a huge territorial complex was politically organised and integrated. * This paper is a part of the results of the research which is grant-aided by the ‘Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research’ program of the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science in 2005–2007. - 137 - SATOSHI KOYAMA 1. The Internal Diversity of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth Poland-Lithuania before the union of Lublin was a typical example of a composite monarchy in early modern Europe. ‘Composite state’ is the term used by H. G. Koenigsberger, who argued that most states in early modern Europe had been ‘composite states, including more than one country under the sovereignty of one ruler’ (Koenigsberger, 1978: 202).

Nagranie dostępne na portalu epodreczniki.pl Since the 14th century the Ottoman Empire (the name comes from Osman – tribe leader from the medieval times) had been creating with conquests a great empire encompassing wide territories of Asia Minor, Middle East, North Africa and Europe. In Europe almost the whole Balkan Peninsula was under the sultan (Turkish ruler). The Turks threatened Poland and the Habsburg monarchy (Austria). Transylvania, Wallachia and Moldova (duchies which are parts of present‐day Romania and Moldova) were a bone of contention. In 1683 Vienna, the capital of Austria, was besieged by the Turkish army. Polish king John III Sobieski concluded an alliance with the emperor Leopold I. United Polish and German armies under the command of the Polish monarch came to the relief of Austrian capital. On 12th September 1683 there was a great battle of Vienna where John III magnificently defeated Turks. Polish mercenaries (Hussars) and artillery had the key role there.

  • An English Paraphrase of Maciej Kazimierz Sarbiewski’S Ode Lyr

I 15 PUBLISHED IN THE PERIOD AFTER THE RELIEF OF VIENNA KRZYSZTOF FORDOŃSKI Warszawa Abstract An English Paraphrase of Maciej Kazimierz Sarbiewski’s Ode Lyr. I 15 Published in the Time After the Battle of Vienna The article presents and analyses Ode the 15th of the First Book of Casimire imitated, encouraging the Polish Knights after their last Conquest to proceed in their Victory, a little known anonymous English paraphrase of Maciej Kazimierz Sarbiewski’s Neo-Latin ode Lyr. I 15 Cum Ladislaus, Poloniae princeps, fuso Osmano, Turcarum imperatore, vic- torem exercitum in hiberna reduceret. It shows both the historical context within which the original poem was written in 1621 as one of the so-called “turcyki,” i.e. poems exhorting Christian knights in their fight against the Turks, and the context within which the paraphrase was written and published immediately after the battle of Vienna (1683). It opens with a comment on the original poem and specifically deals with Sarbiewski’s departures from the description of the actual battle which were later skill- fully employed by the English translator. Next, the volume in which the English poem appeared in 1685, Miscellany Poems and Translations by Oxford Hands is presented. A tentative attempt is made to establish the identity of the anonymous translator based on the available data concerning the place of publication and the editor of the vol- ume, Anthony Stephens.

  • French Travellers to Scotland, 1780-1830
    French Travellers to Scotland, 1780-1830: An Analysis of Some Travel Journals. Elizabeth Anne McFarlane Submitted according to regulations of University of Stirling January 2015 Abstract. This study examines the value of travellers’ written records of their trips with specific reference to the journals of five French travellers who visited Scotland between 1780 and 1830. The thesis argues that they contain material which demonstrates the merit of journals as historical documents. The themes chosen for scrutiny, life in the rural areas, agriculture, industry, transport and towns, are examined and assessed across the journals and against the social, economic and literary scene in France and Scotland. Through the evidence presented in the journals, the thesis explores aspects of the tourist experience of the Enlightenment and post - Enlightenment periods. The viewpoint of knowledgeable French Anglophiles and their receptiveness to Scottish influences, grants a perspective of the position of France in the economic, social and power structure of Europe and the New World vis-à-vis Scotland. The thesis adopts a narrow, focussed analysis of the journals which is compared and contrasted to a broad brush approach adopted in other studies. ii Dedication. For Angus, Mhairi and Brent, who are all scientists. iii Acknowledgements. I would like to thank my husband, Angus, and my daughter, Mhairi, for all the support over the many years it has taken to complete this thesis. I would like to mention in particular the help Angus gave me in the layout of the maps and the table. I would like to express my appreciation for the patience and perseverance of my supervisors and second supervisors over the years.

  • Antiquaries in the Age of Romanticism: 1789-1851
    Antiquaries in the Age of Romanticism: 1789-1851 Rosemary Hill Queen Mary, University of London Submitted for the degree of PhD March 2011 1 I confirm that the work presented in this thesis and submitted for the degree of PhD is my own. Rosemary Hill 2 Abstract The thesis concentrates on the work of fourteen antiquaries active in the period from the French Revolution to the Great Exhibition in England, Scotland and France. I have used a combination of the antiquaries’ published works, which cover, among other subjects, architecture, topography, costume history, Shakespeare and the history of furniture, alongside their private papers to develop an account of that lived engagement with the past which characterised the romantic period. It ends with the growing professionalistion and specialisation of historical studies in the mid-nineteenth century which left little room for the self-generating, essentially romantic antiquarian enterprise. In so far as this subject has been considered at all it has been in the context of what has come to be called ‘the invention of tradition’. It is true that the romantic engagement with history as narrative led to some elaboration of the facts, while the newness of the enterprise laid it open to mistakes. I have not ignored this. The restoration of the Bayeux Tapestry, the forged tartans of the Sobieski Stuarts and the creation of Shakespeare’s Birthplace are all considered. Overall, however, I have been concerned not to debunk but as it were to ‘rebunk’, to see the antiquaries in their historical context and, as far as possible, in their own terms.

Important change processes that were unfolding in Poland at the time of the French Revolution provide an instructive case.

Nagranie dostępne na portalu epodreczniki.pl Nagranie abstraktu Opponents of the reforms and the Constitution of the 3rd of May: Szczęsny Potocki, Ksawery Branicki and Seweryn Rzewuski decided to turn to Catherine II with a proposal to set up a confederation which would oppose the reforms. The Confederation set up in St. Petersburg and officially proclaimed in 1792 in Targowica led to a war between the proponents and opponents of the constitution. The imbalance in strength was evident, as Russian troops arrived to assist the supporters of Targowica. The King, aiming to preserve any small elements of reform, decided to seek an agreement with Catherine. She immediately demanded to be admitted to the Targowica Confederation, which Poniatowski consented to on July 23rd, 1792. The monarch's hopes of saving the last remnants of progress proved to be an illusion and Catherine, together with King Frederick II of Prussia, carried out the Second Partition of Poland.

Pittock Charles Edward Stuart In April 1746, as events at Culloden drifted away from the Jacobites, Lord Elcho called on his leader Charles to charge forward and save the day. When he failed to do so, and instead left the field, Elcho termed him « an Italian coward and a scoundrel» (Scott, p. 213; Ewald, 1875, II, p. 27-33), sometimes popularized as «There you go, you cowardly Italian». Elcho’s squadron of Lifeguard cavalry were one of the Jacobite army’s few crack units: their wealthy and arrogant commander had already loaned Charles Edward 1500 guineas, a loan that was never repaid: to Charles it was a wager on success, to Elcho a commercial transaction, as Frank McLynn (1988, p. 141) has argued. In April 1746, as events at Culloden drifted away from the Jacobites, a cornet in the Horse Guards noted that the Prince wanted to charge forward and save the day. Colonel O’Sullivan ordered Colonel O’Shea of Fitzjames’s (whose name did not appear in the 1984 Muster Roll) to take Charles to safety (Livingstone, 1984).
