They are used constantly by both academic and private researchers who may be doing anything from looking for the town where their grandparents were born to tracing ethnolinguistic boundaries or changing political units. This region of Europe has been much fought over and as a result has been the subject of mapping by a variety of governments and their armies.

The aim of this paper is to outline the history of sport in Volyn (the area of the Volhynian province in the period of the Second Polish Republic) in the years 1921–1939. The Volhynian province was established on 19 February 1921. As of April 1, 1939 its area covered 35,754 km2 and had a population of 2,085,600 people (as of 9 December 1931). The population of Polish nationality was 16,6 %, of Ukrainian nationality – 68,4 %, of Jewish nationality – 9,9 %, of German nationality – 2,3 %, of Czech nationality – 1,5 %, of Russian nationality – 1,1 %, the remaining nationalities – 0,2 %. Townspeople of the province represented only 13,3 % of the population. The province consisted of the following counties: Dubno, Horochów, Kostopil, Kovel, Kremenets, Liuboml, Lutsk, Rivne, Sarny, Volodymyr and Zdolbuniv. The county of Sarny (formerly included in Polesia province) became a part of the Volhynian province in December 1930. Methods and Research Problems. As part of preparation of this study the following research methods have been used: analysis of historical sources, the method of synthesis and comparison.

  • Save Polesia and Stop E40 Green-Blue Future for Connecting the Baltic and Black Seas
    Save Polesia and Stop E40 Green-Blue future for connecting the Baltic and Black Seas Position paper in relation to the suggested E40 inland waterway 2018 KEY FACTS • The E40 inland waterway would impact 392,949.08 km2, which is inhabited by 28 690 834 people. • Cost • Threat to human health in Chernobyl • Impacted size of protected areas • Impacted habitat types / biodiversity • Climate change & Ecosystem services • E40 promises vs our vision • Our demands POLESIA Polesia is a cross-border region located in Central and Eastern Europe. There are different criteria and approaches to define the boundaries of Polesia used by various disciplines. In this document, Polesia is defined according to the physiographic zones and corresponds to the Polesia physiographic subprovince (code 845 in the European Decimal Classification), which therefore appears to be a southern part of the Baltic-Belarusian lowland. Thus, Polesia consists of (moving from the West clockwise) South Podlashie lowland, North Podlashie lowland, Subpodlashie, Dnieper, Central Russian Upland, Sumy, Poltava and Dnieper lowlands, along with Dnieper, Lublin, Volynian and Podolian Uplands. The physiographic region of Polesia extends over a length more than 900 km from the West to the East and reaches over 300 km at its widest point. The total area covers more than 186 000 km2. The largest parts are located in Ukraine (over 94 000 km2) and Belarus (over 62 000 km2). 7 000 km2 of Polesia (Lublin and parts of the Volynian Polesia) are located in Poland. Bryansk- Zhizdrinsky Polesia is situated in the Russian Federation and occupies an area of around 23 000 km2.

  • Contours and Consequences of the Lexical Divide in Ukrainian
    Geoffrey Hull and Halyna Koscharsky1 Contours and Consequences of the Lexical Divide in Ukrainian When compared with its two large neighbours, Russian and Polish, the Ukrainian language presents a picture of striking internal variation. Not only are Ukrainian dialects more mutually divergent than those of Polish or of territorially more widespread Russian,2 but on the literary level the language has long been characterized by the existence of two variants of the standard which have never been perfectly harmonized, in spite of the efforts of nationalist writers for a century and a half. While Ukraine’s modern standard language is based on the eastern dialect of the Kyiv-Poltava-Kharkiv triangle, the literary Ukrainian cultivated by most of the diaspora communities continues to follow to a greater or lesser degree the norms of the Lviv koiné in 1 The authors would like to thank Dr Lance Eccles of Macquarie University for technical assistance in producing this paper. 2 De Bray (1969: 30-35) identifies three main groups of Russian dialects, but the differences are the result of internal evolutionary divergence rather than of external influences. The popular perception is that Russian has minimal dialectal variation compared with other major European languages. Maximilian Fourman (1943: viii), for instance, told students of Russian that the language ‘is amazingly uniform; the same language is spoken over the vast extent of the globe where the flag of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics flies; and you will be understood whether you are speaking to a peasant or a university professor. There are no dialects to bother you, although, of course, there are parts of the Soviet Union where Russian may be spoken rather differently, as, for instance, English is spoken differently by a Londoner, a Scot, a Welshman, an Irishman, or natives of Yorkshire or Cornwall.

At the end of 2012, a research team formed at the Jan Kochanowski University in Kielce was granted a project within the framework of the National Programme for the Development of Humanities by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of Poland. The aim of the project is to identify, document, catalogue and look in detail at the memoirs and collections of letters written by Polish authors from the Taken Lands (in other words, Western Krai, the outskirts of the former Polish state, lands taken by the Russian Empire) at the end of the 18th century and the beginning of the 20th century. The project provides an explanation of archival and library research in Lithuania, Belarus, Ukraine, Russia, France, England and Poland. The material of the publication involves the articles presented in the international scientific conference held in June 2016 in the framework of the national project “Memoirs and Letters of Polish Authors from the Taken Lands (Lithuania, Belarus and Ukraine) in the Period 1795–1918”.

It brings different actors – inhabitants, institutions, organisations, enterprises and communities of the cross-border area closer to each other, in order to better exploit the opportunities of the joint development. In 2015 all the 117 projects co-financed by the Programme shall complete their activities. This publication will give you an insight into their main objectives, activities and results within the projects. It presents stories about cooperation in different fields, examples of how partner towns, villages or local institutions can grow and develop together. It proves that cross-border cooperation is a tremendous force stimulating the develop- ment of shared space and building ties over the borders. I wish all the partners involved in the projects persistence in reaching all their goals at the final stage of the Programme and I would like to congratulate them on successful endeavours in bringing tangible benefits to their communities. This publication will give you a positive picture of the border regions and I hope that it will inspire those who would like to join cross-border cooperation in the next programming period.

  • Polesia Under Threat How a New Waterway Could Destroy Polesia’S Natural Environment © Daniel Rosengren
    Europe´s Amazon Polesia under threat How a new waterway could destroy Polesia’s natural environment © Daniel Rosengren Status March 2020 1/9 Europe´s Amazon What is the threat? Governments want to link the Baltic Sea and Black Sea through a 2,000 km-long navigable connection1 running from Gdansk via Polish, Belarusian and Ukrainian territory down to Kherson (see figure 1). The so-called E40 inland waterway will cut through the heart of Polesia, one of Europe’s last remaining wilderness areas. The proposals involve straightening, deepening, damming, and dredging rivers in some of the most sensitive parts of the region. The impacts of the E40 water- way will dry up rivers, damage landscapes, kill wildlife, destroy the livelihoods of local people, and turn an important carbon sink into a carbon source. There is also a threat to the wider population, as it is likely that radioactive sediment will be disturbed and distributed downstream.

Planning of E40 waterway is still at an initial stage. However, dredging is proposed to begin soon. A consortium led by the Maritime Institute of Gdańsk – an organisation overseen by the Polish government – published a feasibility study in 2015 (1). Proposals for the E40 waterway comprise the rivers Vistula, Bug, Mukhovets, Pina, Pripyat, and Dnieper, as well as the Dnieper-Bug channel.
