  • Janusz Tazbir (1927–2016)
    ODRODZENIE I REFORMACJA W POLSCE ■ SI 2017 ■ PL ISSN 0029-8514 Janusz Tazbir (1927–2016) I was deeply saddened to learn of the death of Janusz Tazbir, one of the most distinguished experts on cultural history in European his- toriography. My dear friend from when we were at school and from when we studied together at the University of Warsaw. His life is a perfect illustration of the experience of the generation of scholars who, despite the difficult times in which they worked, significantly enhanced our knowledge of the history of modern Europe. During wartime, as a young man, Janusz Tazbir was forced to inter- rupt his education and earn a living as a farm worker. This didn’t pre- vent him from using a rich body of literature (mainly classic authors of historical novels and great national poets), which, it should be added, wasn’t easily available during the war. After the conflict, he contin- ued his education, attending intensive secondary school courses. In the school year 1946/47 he was already in the final year at the Juliusz Słowacki School where he would astonish his friends and his teach- ers with his unusual erudition. It was early on during his school years that he decided to dedicate himself to the study of cultural history. In the spring of 1947, having received a secondary school certifi- cate, Tazbir began to study at the Institute of History of the Univer- sity of Warsaw. He completed his university education in less than four years, obtaining his Master’s degree under Professor Władysław Tomkiewicz.

  • Eastern Europe and the British Imperial Imagination, 1914-1919
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Jagiellonian Univeristy Repository Studia z Dziejów Rosji i Europy Środkowo-Wschodniej ■ LII-SI(3) ARTICLES Andrzej Nowak Tadeusz Manteuffel Institute of History, Polish Academy of Sciences Eastern Europe and the British Imperial Imagination, 1914–1919 Zarys treści: Pierwsza wojna światowa wymusiła na elitach Europy Zachodniej potrzebę okreś- lenia, czym ma być Europa Wschodnia, jak wyglądać będzie nowy porządek polityczny po zakończeniu wielkiej wojny, czy da się utrzymać równowagę między Rosją a Niemcami oraz co zrobić z coraz większymi ambicjami Rosji sowieckiej przywrócenia kontroli nad ziemiami byłego Imperium Rosyjskiego. Niniejszy tekst dotyczy wizji Europy Wschodniej wśród brytyj- skich elit politycznych od memoriału Arthura Balfoura z 1916 r. do koncepcji tej części Europy stworzonej w kręgu premiera Davida Lloyda George’a w 1920 r. oraz analiz Halforda Mackindera, ojca brytyjskiej geopolityki. Outline of contents: During the Great War elites of Western Europe were forced to decide on their perception of Eastern Europe, on a new political order after the end of the war, and to think out how to keep the balance between Russia and Germany and what to do with increasing ambitions of Soviet Russia to regain control over the territories of the former Russian Empire. This text attempts to re-create the specific frame of mind of early twentieth-century British political elites which influenced their perception of Eastern European developments from Arthur Balfour’s memorial in 1916 to Eastern Europe’s concepts by Prime Minister David Lloyd George in 1920 and analyses of Sir Halford Mackinder, the father of British geopolitics.

  • Right Wing Politics and the Rise of Antisemitism in Europe 1935-1940/41
    H-Poland Call for Papers: Right Wing Politics and the Rise of Antisemitism in Europe 1935-1940/41 Discussion published by Paul Brykczynski on Saturday, May 16, 2015 Right Wing Politics and the Rise of Antisemitism in Europe 1935-1940/41 Conference at the Center for Holocaust Studies at the Institute for Contemporary History in Munich, 18-20 February 2016 Call for papers Organisers: PD Dr. Frank Bajohr (Center for Holocaust Studies, Institute forContemporary History) Prof. Dr. Dieter Pohl (Alpen-Adria-University, Klagenfurt) Dr. Grzegorz Krzywiec (Tadeusz Manteuffel Institute of History, Polish Academy of Sciences) During the 1930s, antisemitism grew rapidly, not only in Germany, where it became a central focus of state policies from 1933 on, but in most European countries. This culminated in the issue of the first non-German anti-Jewish laws in 1938 in Italy, Romania and Hungary, but also in an upsurge of antisemitic groups and a wave of antisemitic incidents after 1935. The proposed conference will examine the background, structures and consequences of these developments, which fully radicalized under German hegemony in Europe from 1940/41 on. The conference will address several topics: German influence and the perception of Nazi policies against Jews in Germany: To what extent did German policies on different levels – diplomatic, party relations, foreign economic ties – influence antisemitic forces outside of Germany? Were there contacts between Nazi organizations and foreign right-wing groups or governments? How successful were German efforts to form an Antisemitic International in the 1930s, compared with efforts in the 1920s or the 19th century? And how did European right wing forces – fascist, nationalist or authoritarian – perceive German anti-Jewish measures, especially the exclusion of Jews from employment in the civil service, education and the economy, but also “racial segregation” like the Nuremberg laws?

  • Halina Evert-Kappesowa, (Co-)Founder of Post-War Polish Byzantine Studies
    Studia Ceranea 10, 2020, p. 361–381 ISSN: 2084-140X DOI: 10.18778/2084-140X.10.17 e-ISSN: 2449-8378 Jolanta Kolbuszewska (Łódź) https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8837-7376 Halina Evert-Kappesowa, (Co-)Founder of Post-War Polish Byzantine Studies Biography he historian that laid the foundation for post-war Polish Byzantine research T – Halina Janina Evert-Kappesowa – came from a respected family within Polish culture and industry. Her father, Ludwik Józef Evert (1863–1945), a descen- dant of a French family that settled in Poland in the 18th century, was a very well- educated man. He graduated from secondary school in Radom and the Leopold Kronenberg College of Commerce in Warsaw; later, he completed additional stud- ies in Königsberg and Paris as well as professional practice in Germany. From 1887–1895, he managed textile companies and then became a representative of the Russian textile industry in Łódź. In 1896, he and his family lived in Moscow. He was involved in social and charitable activity (he was the vice-president of the Charity Society, the president of the Polish Colony and headed the War Victims’ Aid Committee). In independent Poland, he was also involved in political life; he served as a senator with four terms in office (twice after running with the Nonparti- san Bloc for Cooperation with the Government, then appointed by the President)1. From 1923 until the end of his life, he was president of the church college of the Lutheran-Augsburg Holy Trinity Parish in Warsaw. In the interwar era, he was also a member of the City Council of Warsaw, the Social Welfare Committee, the Committee to Aid the Unemployed and the Merchants’ Assembly of the City of Warsaw 2.

  • Politics of Memory in Independent Georgia. Selected Aspects. Institute
    311 Professor Andrzej Nowak The Tadeusz Manteuffel Institute of History Polish Academy of Sciences, Warsaw, Poland Institute of History Jagiellonian University in Cracow, Poland ORCID: 0000-0003-0026-8288 ARTICLES HISTORY AS AN APOLOGY FOR TOTALITARIANISM Abstract This article discusses selected publications which reinterpret Russian history in a spirit of rehabilitating the Soviet past and highlighting the USSR’s role as a vehicle for Russia’s assumed historical role (including Utkin 1993, Utkin 1999a, Utkin 1999b, Solzhenitsyn 1995, Solzhenitsyn 2001–2002, Mel’tyukhov 2001, Narochnitskaya 2005c, Narochnitskaya 2005a, Mitrofanov 2005). In addition to this, it contextualises them with initiatives undertaken by the Russian Federation’s government (including the standardisation of history textbooks’ content and the activities of the Presidential Commission to counteract attempts to falsify history to the detriment of Russian interests). The points of view presented here, which are considered representative for a certain part of the historical discourse in contemporary Russia, integrate Russia’s totalitarian period (the USSR from 1917 to 1991) into the course of its broader history, as the basis of an interpretation which accepts a priori statements regarding the sense of Russia’s history and her role in world history. Among the observed trends, this text highlights the approval of certain features of the communist dictatorship as corresponding to Russian ideology; the adaptation of Soviet ideology to Russia’s policy of memory; the emphasis

  • Małgorzata Gmurczyk-Wrońska. Latvia in the Plans and Actions of Polish Diplomacy Towards the Soviet Union
    LATVIA IN THE PLANS AND ACTIONS OF POLISH DIPLOMACY TOWARDS THE SOVIET UNION IN 1920–1932 Małgorzata Gmurczyk-Wrońska Dr habil. hist., professor at the Department of the History of Totalitarian Systems and History of Diplomacy, the Tadeusz Manteuffel Institute of History, Polish Academy of Sciences. Scientific interests: political history of the 20th century, international rela- tions, Polish diplomacy in the 20th century. E-mail: [email protected]; Tadeusz Manteuffel Institute of History, Polish Academy of Sciences, Rynek Starego Miasta 29/31, 00-272 Warszawa, Poland For Poland, Latvia was an important factor in the Polish foreign policy re- lated to the plans of setting up a Baltic Union and joined actions in fights and negotiations with Soviets. The issue of Latvia in the plans and actions of Poland was closely related with other Baltic States. Unfortunately, none of the efforts, apart from the Moscow protocol, proved entirely successful for both sides. Polish diplomacy often lacked determination and activity towards the problems of relations with Moscow. Finally, it was the Soviet Union that succeeded in torpedoing Polish plans related to Latvia and the rest of the Baltic States. Key words: Polish-Latvian relations, Polish diplomacy, Polish foreign policy, non-aggression pact, Moscow protocol. RECOGNITION OF THE INDEPENDENCE OF LATVIA Polish policy towards Latvia and the Baltic States was shaped mainly by Józef Piłsudski, Head of State in the Republic of Po- land during 1918–1922. The Baltic States, Latvia in particular, constituted an additional guarantee for Poland against the Soviet Union. For Poland, Latvia was an important factor in the Polish foreign policy related to the plans of setting up a Baltic Union and joined actions in fights and negotiations with Soviets.

  • The Nationality Issue on the Peripheries of Central and Eastern Europe
    Studia z Dziejów Rosji i Europy Ś rodkowo-Wschodniej ■ LII-SI(2) Pavel Ablamski Tadeusz Manteuffel Institute of History of the Polish Academy of Sciences The Nationality Issue on the Peripheries of Central and Eastern Europe. The Case of Polesie in the Interwar Period Zarys treści: Artykuł przedstawia projekty narodowe, które zaistniały na Polesiu w okresie mię- dzywojennym i dążyły do unarodowienia miejscowej ludności. Skrótowo zostały omówione uwarunkowania od zakończenia I wojny światowej do podpisania traktatu ryskiego w marcu 1921 r., wpływające w sposób zasadniczy na dalsze postawy Poleszuków. Województwo poleskie w granicach odrodzonej Polski było terenem współzawodnictwa ruchów narodowych: biało- ruskiego, polskiego, rosyjskiego i ukraińskiego. Wyraźne załamanie tej rywalizacji na Polesiu miało miejsce na przełomie 1932 i 1933 r. Od tego czasu wojewoda poleski Wacław Kostek- -Biernacki zdecydowanie zwalczał wszelkie niepolskie przedsięwzięcia w regionie. Outline of content: Th e article presents national projects which emerged in Polesie in the interwar period and sought to nationalise the local population. It briefl y discusses the conditions from the end of World War I to the signing of the Treaty of Riga in March 1921, which signifi - cantly infl uenced the further attitudes of Polesians. Th e Polesie region within the borders of reborn Poland was the area of competition between several national movements: Belarusian, Polish, Russian and Ukrainian. Th e rivalry in Polesie clearly broke down at the turn of 1933. From then onwards,
