URI [dataset] University of Southampton Faculty of Arts and Humanities History Between anti-Semitism and political pragmatism: Polish perceptions of Jewish national endeavours in Palestine between the two world wars Katarzyna Dziekan Thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy October 2019 University of Southampton Abstract Faculty of Arts and Humanities History Thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Between anti-Semitism and political pragmatism: Polish perceptions of Jewish national endeavours in Palestine between the two world wars Katarzyna Dziekan Since Zionism was endemic within the Polish-Jewish politics of the interbellum, Warsaw’s elites, regardless of their political persuasion, were compelled to take a specific stand on the Zionist ideology and Jewish national aims in Palestine. Being chiefly concerned with understanding the reasons behind Polish official engagement with the Zionist cause, this dissertation charts the ideological, socio-political and economic developments of the mutual relations between Poland and the Zionist movement. By analysing crucial discussions that swept through the Polish political scene, this project highlights the diversity of ideological receptions and attitudes within Poland’s elites toward Zionism and the Palestine question, arguing that the pro- Zionist approach was not only propelled by anti-Semitism but was also the result of precisely calculated political, economic and diplomatic motives. The question of Polish-Zionist interdependence is a fascinating and still little-known episode of history. In the existing historiography, Poland’s engagement with Zionism remains largely peripheral or is regarded as the most effective means of convincing Jews to emigrate from Poland. While not denying the importance of political anti-Semitism in the late 1930s, this project departs from the distorting lens of the tragic events of the Second World War and Nazi genocide. Drawing on documentation from Polish, Israeli and British archives and even more extensively on press coverage, this dissertation determines the concerns and objectives of Poland’s political elites vis-à-vis Zionism, their perceptions of Jewish endeavours in the Middle East and the political ramifications for both sides. In doing so, it contextualizes the Polish government as an important voice in the international debate on Jewish emigration and the Palestine project. As this dissertation maintains, attitudes and official perceptions of Zionism evolved significantly during the interwar period and were inextricably intertwined with a complex set of internal and external factors. The implications of Polish interwar politics had a profound effect on the official perceptions of Zionism. The most influential events of this period were Piłsudski’s seizure of power in May 1926, the rise of a semi-authoritarian regime, the growth of ethno- nationalism within the Polish society and the process of erosion of the Sanacja camp’s political significance in the aftermath of the Marshal’s death. In addition, subsequent developments within international politics shaped the extent of bilateral Polish-Zionist relations. Thus, this project is embedded within the wider historical, diplomatic and geopolitical context of the rapidly changing political landscape of Poland, Europe and the Middle East.

Signature: Date: 8th October 2019 iii Acknowledgements Acknowledgements My doctoral studies have provided me with the opportunity to cooperate with an extraordinary range of people from unusual historical and political backgrounds. Their differing points of view have challenged and confronted my own interpretations. These many people from within academia and beyond, have enriched my life greatly and as a consequence I am extremely grateful that our paths have crossed. My studies at the University of Southampton would not have been possible without the award of the Parkes Institute East European Scholarship, granted in 2015 for the purpose of pursuing a degree at master’s level and the generous Archival Scholarship from the University for the doctorate. The MA programme not only confirmed my commitment to the history of Polish- Jewish relations, but also encouraged me to challenge and expand my intellectual horizons. My time at Southampton has been particularly stimulating and gratifying, thanks to a distinguished faculty within which I have studied. Particular thanks are due to Prof. Shirli Gilbert, Prof. Joachim Schloer, Dr. Claire Le Foll, Prof. Tony Kushner, Dr. Dan Levene and many others. My greatest debt of gratitude is to my supervisors, Prof. Shirli Gilbert and Prof. Joachim Schloer, who have been outstanding mentors and advisors throughout. I count myself extremely privileged to have had such supportive and committed advisors. Prof. Shirli Gilbert’s encouragement and profound insights have not only enriched my understanding of the complexity of the Polish-Jewish relations, but also have enabled me to contextualise this research project. Her extraordinary commitment and suggestions how to navigate through the complexities of the academia far exceeded anything I expected when I started my doctoral studies. I am equally indebted to Prof. Joachim Schloer for his insightful comments to the earlier drafts of my dissertation and his time to discuss various aspects of the history of the European Right and the complex Polish-Zionist relations. As a postgraduate student, I was privileged to participate in numerous seminars and course works. I am particularly indebted to the organisers of the Graduate Summer School in Jewish Studies, Shaking

  • “He Was One of Us” – Joseph Conrad As a Home Army Author
    Yearbook of Conrad Studies (Poland) Vol. 13 2018, pp. 17–29 doi: 0.4467/20843941YC.18.002.11237 “HE WAS ONE OF US” – JOSEPH CONRAD AS A HOME ARMY AUTHOR Stefan Zabierowski The University of Silesia, Katowice Abstract: The aim of this article is to show how Conrad’s fiction (and above all the novelLord Jim) influenced the formation of the ethical attitudes and standards of the members of the Polish Home Army, which was the largest underground army in Nazi-occupied Europe. The core of this army was largely made up of young people who had been born around the year 1920 (i.e. after Poland had regained her independence in 1918) and who had had the opportunity to become acquainted with Conrad’s books during the interwar years. During the wartime occupation, Conrad became the fa- vourite author of those who were actively engaged in fighting the Nazi regime, familiarizing young conspirators with the ethics of honour—the conviction that fighting in a just cause was a reward in itself, regardless of the outcome. The views of this generation of soldiers have been recorded by the writers who were among them: Jan Józef Szczepański, Andrzej Braun and Leszek Prorok. Keywords: Joseph Conrad, World War II, Poland, Polish Home Army, Home Army, Warsaw Uprising 1 In order to fully understand the extraordinary role that Joseph Conrad’s novels played in forming the ethical attitudes and standards of those Poles who fought in the Home Army—which was the largest underground resistance army in Nazi-occupied Europe—we must go back to the interwar years, during which most of the members of the generation that was to form the core of the Home Army were born, for it was then that their personalities were formed and—perhaps above all—it was then that they acquired the particular ethos that they had in common.

  • Jew Taboo: Jewish Difference and the Affirmative Action Debate
    The Jew Taboo: Jewish Difference and the Affirmative Action Debate DEBORAH C. MALAMUD* One of the most important questions for a serious debate on affirmative action is why certain minority groups need affirmative action while others have succeeded without it. The question is rarely asked, however, because the comparisonthat most frequently comes to mind-i.e., blacks and Jews-is seen by many as taboo. Daniel A. Farberand Suzanna Sherry have breached that taboo in recent writings. ProfessorMalamud's Article draws on work in the Jewish Studies field to respond to Farberand Sherry. It begins by critiquing their claim that Jewish values account for Jewish success. It then explores and embraces alternative explanations-some of which Farberand Sheny reject as anti-Semitic-as essentialparts of the story ofJewish success in America. 1 Jews arepeople who are not what anti-Semitessay they are. Jean-Paul Sartre ha[s] written that for Jews authenticity means not to deny what in fact they are. Yes, but it also means not to claim more than one has a right to.2 Defenders of affirmative action today are publicly faced with questions once thought improper in polite company. For Jewish liberals, the most disturbing question on the list is that posed by the comparison between the twentieth-century Jewish and African-American experiences in the United States. It goes something like this: The Jews succeeded in America without affirmative action. In fact, the Jews have done better on any reasonable measure of economic and educational achievement than members of the dominant majority, and began to succeed even while they were still being discriminated against by this country's elite institutions.

  • Interpreting Tempo and Rubato in Chopin's Music
    Interpreting tempo and rubato in Chopin’s music: A matter of tradition or individual style? Li-San Ting A thesis in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of New South Wales School of the Arts and Media Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences June 2013 ABSTRACT The main goal of this thesis is to gain a greater understanding of Chopin performance and interpretation, particularly in relation to tempo and rubato. This thesis is a comparative study between pianists who are associated with the Chopin tradition, primarily the Polish pianists of the early twentieth century, along with French pianists who are connected to Chopin via pedagogical lineage, and several modern pianists playing on period instruments. Through a detailed analysis of tempo and rubato in selected recordings, this thesis will explore the notions of tradition and individuality in Chopin playing, based on principles of pianism and pedagogy that emerge in Chopin’s writings, his composition, and his students’ accounts. Many pianists and teachers assume that a tradition in playing Chopin exists but the basis for this notion is often not made clear. Certain pianists are considered part of the Chopin tradition because of their indirect pedagogical connection to Chopin. I will investigate claims about tradition in Chopin playing in relation to tempo and rubato and highlight similarities and differences in the playing of pianists of the same or different nationality, pedagogical line or era. I will reveal how the literature on Chopin’s principles regarding tempo and rubato relates to any common or unique traits found in selected recordings.

  • I. Historical Background of Antisemitism
    I. Historical Background of Antisemitism What is it? 1. The Importance of a Definition The word antisemitism first originated in the 1870’s. Wilhelm Marr coined the term to distinguish between old time Jew-hatred and more modern, political, ethnic or racial opposition to the Jewish people. By definition, antisemitism represents policies, views or actions that harm or discriminate against the Jewish people. The following are examples of traditional forms of anti-Semitism: - Blood libel claims, still prevalent today in the Arab world (eg. Distributing/citing the Protocols of the Elders of Zion as a legitimate document. - Holocaust denial or relativizing the Holocaust. - Placards equating the Star of David with a Nazi Swastika - Equating Zionism with racism or Nazism, thus denying the Jewish people the right to a national liberation movement by condemning the Zionist movement. - Labeling Israel an apartheid state similar to apartheid South Africa. 2. A Historic Overview of Antisemitism The Jews have felt antisemitism for thousands of years throughout the world. It was present during the Middle Ages throughout Europe as well as during the Roman Empire; a time when being a Jew meant being a dissenter against Christianity. Once again, the Jews found themselves in the position of dissenters during the Islamic conquest of the Middle East and North Africa. Later on, during the Enlightenment, a time when dictating the religion people should follow was no longer seen as appropriate, religious and blatant forms of antisemitism in Europe shifted towards a more subtle, and ‘scientific’ brand of antisemitism, expressed notably as political and economic antisemitism. The Jews continued to be singled out, but the premise became economic and political rhetoric rather than religious.

He made use of his popularity in the United States and western Europe to propagate the idea of Polish independence and state sovereignty. In 20th century Poland, he became a symbol of patriotism and devotion to the national cause. Table of Contents 1 Beginnings of Artistic Career and Political Activity 2 The First World War 3 An Independent Polish State 4 Final Years Notes Selected Bibliography Citation Beginnings of Artistic Career and Political Activity Ignacy Jan Paderewski (1860-1941) was born into a family of petty landowners. His ancestors participated in the struggle for Polish independence by taking part in the anti-Russian January Uprising (1863–1864). He maintained a firm conviction about the necessity of acting for the sake of the homeland deprived of independence, and this remains his political legacy. Paderewski’s greatest passion, however, was music. In 1887 he debuted on stage, initiating a series of successful concerts Paderewski, Ignacy Jan - 1914-1918-Online 1/4 across Europe and the Americas. Paderewski used his success to establish contact with important politicians and disseminate knowledge about the so-called “Polish question.” He chose to open his concerts with patriotic speeches, and he promoted the works of Frederic Chopin (1810–1849), another Polish composer. He also inserted into his own compositions motifs referring to Polish folk music and events from the history of Poland.

  • Poland's Postwar Moral Panic
    1 ||| Poland’s Postwar Moral Panic Stanisêaw Kozicki (1876–1958), a prominent politician of the nationalist- right camp, re¶ected in 1932 on the numerous challenges that contemporary Poland faced and offered the following summation: “In addition to every- thing that is going on there [in western Europe after the Great War], we are undergoing a transition from slavery to freedom and are exerting a great ef- fort to organize our own state. Can one really be surprised that the transi- tional period is lasting longer and is more complicated?”1 Though it was unpleasant and troubling, it was natural enough, Kozicki reasoned, for the Second Republic to confront monumental problems on all fronts and at all levels. Commentators like Kozicki moved effortlessly from blaming the lin- gering effects of the partitions for the problems evident in the Second Repub- lic, to blaming the Great War and the subsequent border wars, the political structures of the new state, the ethnic minorities, the international situation and geopolitics. But commentators also impugned something far less tangible and potentially far more explosive: the moral health of the nation. A vocabu- lary of infestation and ¤lth, of healing, good ethics, and moral rigor, was heard frequently in the press of the early independence period as many looked to the moral realm as possessing great explanatory power. In an atmo- sphere of economic uncertainty, social tension, and political animosity, cul- tural and moral visions of newly independent Poland were bound to clash. Bit by bit, the contours of a discursive moral panic developed alongside the political crises, the social unrest and the economic ruin.

Since then, the participants have manifested their attachment to Polish tradi- tion, and their anti-multicultural attitude. Much of the debate about multicul- turalism and the emergence of conflictual and socially divisive ethnic groupings has addressed ethical concerns. In contrast, this paper focuses on the semiotic and structural level of the problem. Key words: March of Independence, nationalism, refugees, values, patriotism 150 Elżbieta Wiącek POLITEJA 4(61)/2019 fter Poland’s accession to the European Union in May 2004 new laws on national, Aethnic and linguistic minorities were accepted and put into practice.1 However, cur- rent Polish multiculturalism is different from that of multi-ethnic or immigrant societies such as the UK. Indeed, multiculturalism in contemporary Poland can be seen as a his- torical phenomenon, one linked to the long-lasting ‘folklorisation’ of diversity. For in- stance, although ‘multicultural’ festivals are organised in cities, towns and in borderland regions, all of them refer to past ‘multi-ethnic’ or religiously diversified life. Tolerance is evoked as an old Polish historical tradition. The historical Commonwealth of Poland and Lithuania (1385-1795) was in itself diverse linguistically, ethnically and religiously, and it also welcomed various ethnic and religious minorities, especially Jews.

  • JABOTINSKY on CANADA and the Unlted STATES*
    A CASE OFLIMITED VISION: JABOTINSKY ON CANADA AND THE UNlTED STATES* From its inception in 1897, and even earlier in its period of gestation, Zionism has been extremely popular in Canada. Adherence to the movement seemed all but universal among Canada's Jews by the World War I era. Even in the interwar period, as the flush of first achievement wore off and as the Canadian Jewish community became more acclimated, the movement in Canada functioned at a near-fever pitch. During the twenties and thirties funds were raised, acculturatedJews adhered toZionism with some settling in Palestine, and prominent gentile politicians publicly supported the movement. The contrast with the United States was striking. There, Zionism got a very slow start. At the outbreak of World War I only one American Jew in three hundred belonged to the Zionist movement; and, unlike Canada, a very strong undercurrent of anti-Zionism emerged in the Jewish community and among gentiles. The conversion to Zionism of Louis D. Brandeis-prominent lawyer and the first Jew to sit on the United States Supreme Court-the proclamation of the Balfour Declaration, and the conquest of Palestine by the British gave Zionism in the United States a significant boost during the war. Afterwards, however, American Zionism, like the country itself, returned to "normalcy." Membership in the movement plummeted; fundraising languished; potential settlers for Palestine were not to be found. One of the chief impediments to Zionism in America had to do with the nature of the relationship of American Jews to their country. Zionism was predicated on the proposition that Jews were doomed to .( 2 Michuel Brown be aliens in every country but their own.
