How Marywil Came to Be. the Creation of Warsaw's Residential and Commercial Complex in the Light of the Correspondence Betwee
Jarosław Pietrzak HOW MARYWIL CAME TO BE. THE CREATION OF WARSAW’S RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL COMPLEX IN THE LIGHT OF THE CORRESPONDENCE BETWEEN OTTON FRYDERYK FELKERSAMB AND MARIA KAZIMIERA SOBIESKA FROM 1694* Introduction The area of the Marywil complex, once located between today’s Józefa Piłsudskiego Square and Moliera Street, Wierzbowa Street, and Senatorska Street, currently houses the monumental edifice of Teatr Wielki and its adja- cent parking lot. The history of the complex combining residential and com- mercial functions has already been thoroughly studied and described in sec- ondary sources; it would seem that there is nothing to add or modify within this area of research1. * The text was written as part of the grant project NCN FUGA 4 (agreement UMO-2015/16/S/HS3/00095) entitled “Organisation and operation of the courts of Maria Kazimiera d’Arquien Sobieska in Poland, Italy, and France in the years 1658–1716”. 1 M.

Portraits of Emigration: Sour Milk and Honey in the Promised Land
Portraits of Emigration: Sour Milk and Honey in the Promised Land Mary Patrice Erdmans, University of North Carolina, Greensboro This article analyzes the moral tones of public emigration stories through an ex- ploratory analysis of newspaper stories published between 1990 and 1993 in a region in Poland with a century-old tradition of out-migration. Media stories arc fertile ground for examining values and myths because they negotiate between the micro-level process of individuals constructing meanings and the macro-level process of political economies producing meanings. I identified two sets of contradictory stories: (1) stories about the sending country cast emigrants as either home builders or home wreckers, and (2) sto- ries about the receiving country depicted America as either Horatio Alger's land of pos- sibility or a morally degenerate place where greed corrupts the soul. To explain these contradictions, I compare the institution of migration to (post)modcm culture and note that both contribute to social diversity and structural differentiation which lead to value inconsistencies. An article titled "The bitter taste of America," published in the Tygodnik Podhalanski in Poland, opens with a description of an aging elegant woman dressed in fading American clothes carefiilly counting her change as she does her daily shopping in Zakopane, a town in the mountainous Podhale region in southeastern Poland (Sowa 1991). The husband of this impoverished woman had emigrated to the United States in the 1970s, leaving her and their three children behind on the family land. He never returned, yet neither did he sever ties with the family. Over the years he sent them money and presents from Chicago, and eventually each of his children joined him there. -

Rozbieżności W Gronie Opozycji Przeciwko Rządom Króla Augusta II W Koronie W Okresie Dominacji Szwedzkiej W Latach 1704–1706
Echa Przeszłości XX/1, 2019 ISSN 1509–9873 DOI 10.31648/ep.4836 Rafał Kowalski Uniwersytet Warmińsko-Mazurski w Olsztynie Rozbieżności w gronie opozycji przeciwko rządom króla Augusta II w Koronie w okresie dominacji szwedzkiej w latach 1704–1706 Streszczenie: Niniejszy artykuł porusza kwestię rozbieżności, jakie wystąpiły wśród oponentów króla Augusta II Wettyna w Koronie w latach 1704–1706. Najazd szwedzki na Rzeczpospolitą w 1702 r. doprowadził do zaognienia napiętej sytuacji, jaka panowała pomiędzy poddanymi a próbującym umoc- nić swoje rządy Augustem II. Wywodząca się głównie z Wielkopolski opozycja zawiązała konfederację antykrólewską. W lutym 1704 r. konfederaci pod wpływem szwedzkich nacisków doprowadzili do de- tronizacji króla Augusta, a następnie do elekcji antykróla – wywodzącego się z kręgu opozycji wojewodę poznańskiego Stanisława Leszczyńskiego. Narzucony szlachcie przez szwedzkiego monarchę Karola XII król nie zyskał akceptacji wśród innych opozycjonistów. Szybko dały o sobie znać rozbieżności nie tylko celów politycznych liderów malkontenckich, ale także niezaspokojona ambicja i zazdrość z powodu wy- niesienia na tron osoby ze swojego kręgu społecznego, do tego pozbawionej autorytetu. Prymas Michał Radziejowski, jeden z głównych sprawców detronizacji króla Augusta, po elekcji Leszczyńskiego odsunął się od działalności politycznej. Podobnie postąpili inni przywódcy malkontenccy. Brutalność szwedzkich najeźdźców, a także nieudolność Leszczyńskiego nie uspokoiła sytuacji w Rzeczypospolitej. Większość szlachty pozostała wierna -

Thus, they occupy a transitional Kraków position between the maritime Western Europe and the con- tinental Eastern European lowland.

It gives good insight into geological Abstract: The trip gives insight into geology and landforms as well structure, landscape as well as weathering and soil forming as into past and present dynamic geological, geomorphologic and processes.

Neotectonics of the Polish Carpathians in the Light of Geomorphic Studies: a State of the Art
Acta Geodyn. Geomater., Vol. 6, No. 3 (155), 291-308, 2009 NEOTECTONICS OF THE POLISH CARPATHIANS IN THE LIGHT OF GEOMORPHIC STUDIES: A STATE OF THE ART Witold ZUCHIEWICZ Faculty of Geology, Geophysics and Environmental Protection, AGH University of Science and Technology, A. Mickiewicza 30, 30-059 Kraków, Poland *Corresponding author‘s e-mail: [email protected] (Received January 2009, accepted March 2009) ABSTRACT Neotectonics of the Carpathians used to be studied extensively, particular attention being paid to the effects of large-scale domal uplifts and open folding above marginal zones of thrusts and imbricated map-scale folds, and rarely to the characteristics of young faulting. Neotectonic faults tend to be associated with the margins of the Orava-Nowy Targ Basin, superposed on the boundary between the Inner and Outer Western Carpathians, as well as with some regions within the Outer Carpathians. The size of Quaternary tilting of the Tatra Mts. on the sub-Tatric fault were estimated at 100 to 300 m, and recent vertical crustal movements of this area detected by repeated precise levelling are in the range of 0.4-1.0 mm/yr in rate. Minor vertical block movements of oscillatory character (0.5-1 mm/yr) were detected along faults cutting the Pieniny Klippen Belt owing to repeated geodetic measurements performed on the Pieniny geodynamic test area. In the western part of the Western Outer Carpathians, middle and late Pleistocene reactivation of early Neogene thrust surfaces was suggested. Differentiated mobility of reactivated as normal Miocene faults (oriented (N-S to NNW-SSE and NNE-SSW) in the medial portion of the Dunajec River drainage basin appears to be indicated by the results of long-profile analyses of deformed straths, usually of early and middle Pleistocene age. -

The Sobieski Family: history, culture and society. Insights between Rome, Warsaw and Europe. 17 October 2019, Museum of King Jan III’s Palace at Wilanów, Villa Intrata 1. Alessandro Boccolini (University of Tuscia) La Lega Santa del 1684 e l’ambasciata straordinaria di Angelo Morosini alla corte di Jan III Sobieski tratta dalle carte conservate presso l’Archivio di Stato di Venezia. In the aftermath of the liberation of Vienna, papal diplomacy was activated to extend the Polish- imperial league to the Serenissima Republic of Venice. Mons. Buonvisi, the ordinary nuncio in Vienna, was to coordinate diplomacy. Such a political effort would lead to the signing of the Holy League between the Empire, Poland and Venice. The contribution aims to retrace the complex phases leading to the signing of the league, with particular attention to the embassy of Warsaw, held by Angelo Morosini between May and June 1684, sent by the Republic of Venice to inform Jan III of the ratification of the treaty. This embassy is testified by a Report still unpublished and preserved in the State Archives of Venice which, in combination with the already investigated diary of Giacomo Cavanis, Morosini’s personal secretary, which give a perfect picture of those agitated phases of the struggle against the infidel Turk. 2.
