  • Language Contact in Pomerania: the Case of German, Polish, and Kashubian
    P a g e | 1 Language Contact in Pomerania: The Case of German, Polish, and Kashubian Nick Znajkowski, New York University Purpose The effects of language contact and language shift are well documented. Lexical items and phonological features are very easily transferred from one language to another and once transferred, rather easily documented. Syntactic features can be less so in both respects, but shifts obviously do occur. The various qualities of these shifts, such as whether they are calques, extensions of a structure present in the modifying language, or the collapsing of some structure in favor the apparent simplicity found in analogous foreign structures, all are indicative of the intensity and the duration of the contact. Additionally, and perhaps this is the most interesting aspect of language shift, they show what is possible in the evolution of language over time, but also what individual speakers in a single generation are capable of concocting. This paper seeks to explore an extremely fascinating and long-standing language contact situation that persists to this day in Northern Poland—that of the Kashubian language with its dominating neighbors: Polish and German. The Kashubians are a Slavic minority group who have historically occupied the area in Northern Poland known today as Pomerania, bordering the Baltic Sea. Their language, Kashubian, is a member of the Slavic branch of Indo-European languages and further belongs to the Pomeranian branch of Lechitic languages, which includes Polish, Silesian, and the extinct Polabian and Slovincian. The situation to be found among the Kashubian people, a people at one point variably bi-, or as is sometimes the case among older folk, even trilingual in Kashubian, P a g e | 2 Polish, and German is a particularly exciting one because of the current vitality of the Kashubian minority culture.

CHALLENGES AND OBJECTIVES …………………………………………… 28 V. IMPLEMENTATION SYSTEM ………………………………………………… 65 3 4 The shape of the Pomorskie Voivodeship Development Strategy 2020 is determined by 8 assumptions: 1. The strategy is a tool for creating development targeting available financial and regulatory instruments. 2. The strategy covers only those issues on which the Self-Government of Pomorskie Voivodeship and its partners in the region have a real impact. 3. The strategy does not include purely local issues unless there is a close relationship between the local needs and potentials of the region and regional interest, or when the local deficits significantly restrict the development opportunities. 4. The strategy does not focus on issues of a routine character, belonging to the realm of the current operation and performing the duties and responsibilities of legal entities operating in the region. 5. The strategy is selective and focused on defining the objectives and courses of action reflecting the strategic choices made. 6. The strategy sets targets amenable to verification and establishment of commitments to specific actions and effects. 7. The strategy outlines the criteria for identifying projects forming part of its implementation. 8. The strategy takes into account the specific conditions for development of different parts of the voivodeship, indicating that not all development challenges are the same everywhere in their nature and seriousness.

The aim of the study was to compare the selenium content in the European smelt from the Bay of Pomerania, Gdansk, and the Curonian Lagoon. The experimen- tal material consisted of smelt samples (muscle) caught in the bays of Gdansk and Pomerania and the Curonian Lagoon (estuaries of the three largest rivers in the Baltic Sea basin: the Oder, the Vistula and the Neman). A total of 133 smelt were examined (Pomerania Bay n = 67; Gdansk Bay n = 35; Curonian Lagoon n = 31). Selenium concentrations were determined spec- trofluorometrically. The data were analyzed statistically using one-way analysis of variance, calculated in Statistica PL software. The region of fish collection significantly affected the content of selenium in the examined smelts.

  • Recreational Space Valorisation in Western Pomerania District
    Eliza Kalbarczyk, Robert Kalbarczyk Recreational space valorisation in Western Pomerania district Acta Scientiarum Polonorum. Administratio Locorum 6/3, 59-73 2007 Acta Sci. Pol., Administratio Locorum 6(3) 2007, 59-73 RECREATIONAL SPACE VALORISATION IN WESTERN POMERANIA DISTRICT Eliza Kalbarczyk, Robert Kalbarczyk Agricultural University in Szczecin Abstract. The paper has been aimed at finding agrotourism development opportunities in particular municipalities of Western Pomerania district. A Drzewiecki’s method, comprising seven criteria scale for agro tourism attractiveness for each municipality, was used to valorise recreational space in there. According to Drzewiecki a rural or urbanrural municipality can be regarded as a rural recreational space only if three, out of seven criteria, are met. In case of Western Pomerania region, municipalities happen to meet the criteria of agrotourism attractiveness mainly due to small population density (89% of municipalities), high individual agriculture rate (52% of municipalities), and last but not least, high forest to overall area rate (47% of municipalities). Specifically, 41 municipalities shall be regarded as country recreational space since they meet at least three, out of the seven concerned, criteria. Country recreational space in the Western Pomerania district amounts to 10 700 km2 (47% of the total district area), which is inhabited by 206 000 people (12% of the district population). The area does not provide a compact space, though the agrotourism oriented municipalities tend to conglomerate in Drawskie Lakeland (namely Drawsko, Łobez, and Szczecinek counties), as well as in Goleniów county. Four criteria (maximum) are met, however, only by 14 municipalities of Western Pomerania (zachodniopomorskie) District, most frequently in Drawsko, Goleniów, and Stargard Szczeciński counties.

  • Wagner Family Anklam Vorward
    Wagner Family Anklam Vorward Why should we stumble over our history? Aren‘t there enough obstacles in our lives that we have to deal with? This „stumbling“ over a small square brass plate is a symbolic, intellectual stumbling. Stolpersteine are laid where people lived, worked and were violently victimised during the Nazi dictatorship. The Stolperstein‘s inscription, with the name, birth and death dates, stands specifically for a person whose fate must not be forgotten and must be direct- ly associated with the place where it is laid. If the fate of this person becomes noticeable again through the Stolperstein, the memory can be carried on in the heads and hearts of future generations. It is for this purpose that Martin, Mar- garete & Heinz Wagner are remembered with three Stolpersteine in Anklam. – 4 – Fagner Family Martin Wagner was born in Anklam on November 1, 1887. His parents were Isidor (October 3, 1855 - October 19, 1916) and Bertha Wagner, née Graetzer (March 27, 1855 - January 20, 1940). It is known that Hedwig Wagner, born on May 2, 1885, was also a part of this Jewish family. Hedwig was the older sister of Martin Wagner. There was also another sister, Thekla Wagner. The family lived at Keilstaße 16 and owned a shoe and household goods store. Martin Wagner married Margarete Joseph. On July 25, 1923 their son Heinz Wagner was born in Anklam.

  • On 23 October 1815, Sweden Lost Its Last Remaining Conquest Of
    Swedish Pomeranian Shipping in the Revolutionary Age (1776–1815) Magnus Ressel n 23 October 1815, Sweden lost its last remaining conquest of the OThirty Years War. As a result of a complicated exchange, Sweden gai- ned Norway as a kingdom to be ruled in personal union by its king. In return, Denmark obtained the little Duchy of Lauenburg, which Prussia had acquired previously from Hanover in exchange for Eastern Frisia, only to be used as a bargaining chip. To make up for differences in the relative importance of these territories, substantial flows of money accompanied the entire clearing pro- cess.1 Swedish Pomerania thus left the Swedish orbit for good. It had been a small province on the southern coast of the Baltic with an area of 4 400 km², the main part stretching from Damgarten to Anklam with Stralsund and Gre- ifswald as the most important cities. The island of Rügen (with another 920 km²) had also belonged to the Swedish possessions in the Holy Roman Em- pire, as had the city of Wismar with a little hinterland (this only until 1803). Magnus Ressel (fil.dr) arbetar som forskare vid universitetet i Bochum. Han skrev sin avhandling på ämnet ”Northern Europe and the Barbary corsairs during the Early Modern Epoch”. Han bedriver för tillfället forskning rörande Hansan, Nederländerna, Danmark och Sverige under Trettioåriga kriget. 64 65 Sweden’s provinces in Germany had been saved twice for the kingdom, in 1678 by France alone and in 1719 by France and England together when they had joined to preserve as much as possible of the weakened country’s German territories.2 Now this was undone forever.

  • Voivodship Self-Government As a Creator of Regional Development and Its New Identity on the Example of the Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship in Poland
    Voivodship self-government as a creator of regional development and its new identity on the example of the Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship in Poland - Szymczak skie, [email protected] skie, [email protected] Abstract The aim of these considerations is, firstly, to pay attention to the role of local self- government at the voivodship level as a creator of regional development in Poland. Secondly, an indication of how the above function may be a useful tool for the reconstruction or creation of the region's cultural identity, after the destruction made in this sphere in the period when Poland was not existing as a result of the partitions (1795-1918), and during the communist dictatorship (1944) - 1989). The above analysis will be made on the example of the present Polish Kuyavian- Pomeranian Voivodeship, which is the area where various cultural and civilization traditions meet. For this reason, it is an interesting example of modern transformation processes and can, from this point of view, become an interesting point of reference for regions facing similar experiences in different parts of the world.
