Processing history: Colleen Benoit, November 2015 Biographical note The Blam and Selinger families consist of Golda and Hersch Blam, their daughter, Machcia Selinger, Machcia’s son, Oleg Selinger, and others. In 1942, during the time of Nazi occupation, the Blam family lived in the Drohobycz Ghetto in Poland (now Drohobych, Ukraine) and the Selingers lived in Sambor, Poland (now Sambir, Ukraine). Golda and Hersch eventually perished in Belzec extermination camp or were shot in the Bronicki forest near Drohobycz, sometime in late 1942 or 1943 when most of the Jews living in Drohobycz were murdered. Machcia and Oleg survived the Holocaust. Scope and content of collection The Blam and Selinger family papers consists primarily of correspondence in the form of postcards from Golda and Hersch Blam to their family, presumably their daughter, Machcia in Sambor. One postcard in the collection is from Toni (?) Selinger to Machcia. The postcards were written during a five month period between June and October of 1942, a time period when most of the Jews from the Drohobycz ghetto were transported to the Belzec extermination camp. Most of the postcards relate family news and concerns for each other’s health and wellbeing. Mention of food shortages and a lack of adequate clothing for Oleg is made in a couple of the postcards. Also included are three undated family photographs depicting Golda, Hersch, Oleg, and Machcia and a map of the Warsaw ghetto’s borders between 1940 and 1942.

  • Appendices I
    Appendices I. Archival Sources Archival research for this monograph was conducted in Lviv, the former capital of Galicia, in 1983. To orient myself in the rich archival holdings of this city, I benefitted from the unpublished manuscript of Patricia K. Grimsted's forthcoming guide to Soviet Ukrainian archives and manuscript repositories' as well as from a number of published works.' Plans to use archives in Ternopil and Ivano-Frankivsk were frustrated, as was the plan to use the manuscript collection of the Institute of Literature of the Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR (in Kiev). Work in the Austrian archives in 1982 did not uncover sources of direct relevance to the subject of this monograph, but the Viennese archives remain an important and little-explored repository of historical documentation on Galician history. The richest collection of unpublished sources on the history of Galicia during the Austrian period is located in the Central State Historical Archives of the Ukrainian SSR in Lviv (U Tsentrainyi derzhavnyi istorychnyi arkhiv URSR u rn. Lvovi; abbre- viated as TsDIAL). The Central Archives have inherited the papers of various Galician government institutions and major civic organizations. Unfortunately, there is no published guide to these archives, although a number of articles describe aspects of their holdings.' The papers of the Presidium of the Galician Viceroy's Office (U Haiytske narnisnytstvo, rn. Lviv. Prezydiia) are contained in TsDIAL, fond 146, opysy 4-8 (and presumably others). Particularly valuable for this study were documents dealing with the publication and confiscation of political brochures and periodicals, including , Patricia K.

The methodical instrument for constructing cluster analysis was the method of complete linkage at the Euclidian distance to combine the most similar administrative districts of Lviv region according to standardized indicators of economic efficiency of agricultural lands use. The article presents the results of cluster analysis, which showed the formation of three clusters in terms of economic efficiency of agricultural lands use in Lviv region. The research confirms empirically that the condition of land resources in Skole and Turka districts of Lviv region is unsatisfactory. Sambir and Horodok districts are defined as areas with a satisfactory state of agricultural land. In other districts of the region, we can witness a good state of land for the production of agricultural products.

The dynamics of the share of the Jewish population in urban settlements of the Lviv Oblast is studied, and it is found that it sharply decreased after the events of the World War II, primarily as a result of the Holocaust. A map of the share of the Jewish population in the urban settlements of the Oblast in 1939 is developed.

The present article exhibits the results of systematic analysis on structure and planning of fragments of urban envir- onment. The results have been obtained by looking into the prerequisites of formation of urban environment, specifically the impact of the Magdeburg Rights on urban culture. The study covers the small towns in Ukraine, which retained their historical background to a greater extent. 70 towns in Ukraine that had the Magdeburg Law have been analyzed and their historic, ar- chitectural and planning capacity investigated. The most valuable urban fragments have been classified in accordance with a number of criteria, such as the form of the plan, planning composition, etc. Based on the conducted analysis the author presents further generalized proposals for comprehensive development of historical and architectural heritage within the socio-cultural and tourism infrastructure of the Ukrainian towns. Keywords: urban development, planning structure, towns of the Magdeburg Law, typology, historical nucleus, historical and cultural heritage. Introduction Nowadays, the preservation of historical and architectural interconnections. It is clear that adaptation techniques may heritage and its adaptation to the modern urban environment vary depending on a particular town.
