The ąuestion of Ukrainę had been treated by Jerzy Giedroyc in a uniąue way, which was measured by state integrity, efforts to шternationalize the Ukrainian case and systematic observation of the changes taking place in Ukrainę. Ali this can be called tbe “Ukrainian case" by diminfabing the problem a bit. Such eensitivity to the political problems related to Ukrainę, but also openness to the Ukrainian cultural heritage, was due to several factors deeply rcoted in the pre-war period. Key w ords: Ukrainę, „Kultura”, Jerzy Giedroyc, „Bunt Młodych” Since the beginning of “Kultura” magazine, the queetion of Ukrainę had heen treated in a uniąue way, which was measured by state integrity, efforts to internationalize the Ukrainian case and systematic observation of the changes taking place in Ukrainę.

  • 'Politics of History'?
    35 Professor Jan Pomorski Maria Curie-Skłodowska University, Lublin, Poland ORCID: 0000-0001-5667-0917 AD VOCEM WHAT IS ’POLITICS OF HISTORY’? CONCERNING POLAND’S RAISON D’ÉTAT* (ad vocem) Abstract The term ‘politics of history’ can be encountered in the narratives created by three distinct types of social practice: (1) the social practice of research (‘politics of history’ is the subject of the research, and not the practice); (2) the social practice of politics (‘politics of history’ is practiced, and may be either an instrument for gaining and retaining power, and/or an instrument for realising the state’s raison d’état); (3) the social practice of memory (where the practice of ‘politics of history’ also has a place, and is synonymous with ‘politics of memory’). The author argues that political raison d’état requires Poland to pursue an active politics of history which should be addressed abroad, and proposes that its guiding ideas should be based on three grand narratives: (1) the fundamental role of ‘Solidarity Poland’ in the peaceful dismantling of the post-Yalta system in Europe, (2) the Europe of the Jagiellonians, and (3) the Europe of the Vasas, as constructs simultaneously geopolitical and civilisational, in which Poland performed an agential function. Keywords: politics of history as a subject of research, politics of history as a subject of practice, politics of history as raison d’état Institute of National Remembrance 1/2019 36 “Whoever does not respect and value their past is not worthy of respect by the present, or of the right to a future.” Józef Piłsudski “Polishness – it is not Sarmatian-ness, it is not confined to the descent from pre-Lechite peasants and warriors; nor it is confined to what the Middle Ages made of them later.

  • An Emigre—Historian
    ORGANON 32:2003 Piotr Wandycz (Yale, U. S. A.) AN EMIGRE — HISTORIAN How and where does one commence a scholarly autobiography? Perhaps the best precept is to be found in Alice in Wonderland: Begin at the beginning, the King said, and go on till you come to the end: then stop. Thinking of the beginnings my thoughts go back to my family, an intelligentsia Polish family with broad intellectual interests. My mother wrote children’s books, her sister (Mieroszewska) was a painter, and so was my brother, my sister had a Ph. D. in art history from the Jagiellonian University. To avoid possible confusion I should add that they were my half-brother and half-sister and their family name was Mars. However, being extremely close to one another we never used the term half. My brother’s influence during my formative years was particularly strong. My father was by education a chemist and he became a leading figure in the Polish oil industry. But by inclination he remained a humanist with a deep knowledge of music and literature. The tradition of Young Poland weighed heavily on my parents and to some extent was passed on to me. So was an attachment to the past - perhaps a romanticized vision of it. Ideologically, my parents were adherents of Piłsudski - my father was a legionary of the First Brigade - and I remember them crying at the news of the Marshal’s death. My uncle (father’s brother) was in POW. In the late 1930s, however, when the sanacja split internally and began to move to the right, my parents became critical of the regime and looked up to general Kazimierz Sosnkowski and the nascent Democratic Clubs.

  • Two à Migrã Journals: Kultura (From a Hungarian
    GEORGE G�M�RI (Cambridge, England., U.K.) TWO �MIGR� JOURNALS: KULTURA (FROM A HUNGARIAN) AND IRODALMI UJS�G (FROM A POLISH) POINT OF VIEW The Polish journal Kultura was started in the West in 1947 and still ex- ists, while the Hungarian Iroda!mi ujsig (Literary gazette) was founded in different circumstances (in Communist-ruled Hungary) back in 1950. It was relaunched in the West in 1957 and existed until 1989. When comparing these two publications, one has to discuss first of all their respective cultur- al backgrounds. Though there is much that is common to Polish and Hun- garian history, from shared kings to similar social structures, they have rather different traditions of emigration. Poland ceased to exist as a sover- eign state at the end of the eighteenth century, so her emigres, struggling, writing and on more than one occasion fighting for the restoration of an in- dependent Poland played an indispensible role - indeed, a much greater role than their numbers warranted. The grouping known as the Great Emi- gration ( NVielka Emigracja), formed after the failure of the 1830-31 uprising and struggle for independence, had Paris as its nerve centre. Without writ- ers in exile like Mickiewicz, Slowacki and Norwid it would be difficult to imag- ine modern Polish literature in its present form. During the Second World War many Poles found themselves in the West, and when the majority of them decided to stay after 1945, changing their status from refugees to emigres, there was already a continuous tradition they could look back on.

    Folia 181 Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis Studia Politologica XIV (2015) WoKół polItyKI zagRanIcznej Andrzej Janociński Uniwersytet Marii Curie-Skłodowskiej w Lublinie Recepcja myśli politycznej Juliusza Mieroszewskiego... w polskiej polityce wschodniej po 1989 roku Uwagi wstępne Juliusz Mieroszewski był jednym z najbardziej interesujących polskich pisarzy po- litycznych i publicystów XX wieku. Krzysztof Pomian zaliczył go do najoryginalniej- szych twórców myśli politycznej w obszarze Europy Środkowo-Wschodniej. Poglą- dy Mieroszewskiego na demokrację jako wartość samą w sobie oraz realistyczne formułowanie celów w polityce były wyznacznikami jego sposobu myślenia i świad- czyły o nowatorstwie w myśli politycznej publicysty „Kultury” (zob. Pomian 1999, s. 36). Na łamach paryskiego periodyku publikował najistotniejsze swoje przemyśle- nia związane z m.in. polską polityką zagraniczną. Zadebiutował tam w 1949 roku, a stałą współpracę rozpoczął w roku 1950 i kontynuował ją aż do śmierci. Zamieścił ponad 450 artykułów. Pod piórem Juliusza Mieroszewskiego dojrzewała i ewolu- owała myśl polityczna „Kultury”, szczególnie część dotycząca stosunków Polski z są- siadami, oraz prognozy rozwoju sytuacji międzynarodowej. Janusz Korek, badacz paryskiej „Kultury”, przedstawił Mieroszewskiego jako głównego publicystę i ty- tuował go osobą numer dwa w „niewidzialnej redakcji” miesięcznika (Korek 2000, s. 25). Ocena ta była ważna dlatego, że w kwestii polskiej polityki wschodniej po 1989 roku nie dopatrzymy się nowatorskiej koncepcji u przedstawicieli którejkolwiek z partii politycznych. „Ich myśl polityczna w tym zakresie była dziedzictwem trzech różnych wizji stosunków Polski ze wschodnimi sąsiadami. Dwie z nich pochodzą z okresu międzywojennego, a trzecia jest dorobkiem emigracyjnym z kręgu pary- skiej «Kultury»” (Surmacz 2002, s. 86). Trzecie źródło koncepcji stosunków Polski z jej wschodnimi sąsiadami wska- zuje na obecność w polskiej polityce zagraniczne pierwiastka paryskiej „Kultury”.

  • A Farewell to Giedroyc
    Warsaw, January 2017 A farewell to Giedroyc Katarzyna Pełczyńska-Nałęcz The plans for the future of TV Belsat presented by Foreign Minister Witold Waszczykowski are a good excuse for an overall reflection on Poland’s eastern policy as it is being conducted today. The proposal to drastically reduce Belsat’s funding and pass those savings on to funds for a new Polish-language channel to be broadcast abroad, including officially to Belarus, should not be seen as a one-off deci- sion. It is a symptom of a fundamental turn-around: the departure from the assumptions that have guided nearly 25 years of Poland’s policy towards its Eastern European neighbours. Symbolically, this change can be described as ‘a farewell to Giedroyc’. No free Poland without a free Ukraine Despite various twists and turns, the Third Republic’s eastern policy has constantly drawn on several fundamental principles1. The roots of these principles lay in the concept, formulated in the 1960s by Mieroszewski and Giedroyc, of how to approach Ukraine, Lithuania and Belarus (ULB for short), which were then parts of the USSR2. These principles can be summarised as follows: Poland’s freedom is closely linked to the sovereignty (de facto independence from Russia) of our eastern neighbours. If Stefan Batory Foundation 1 In Polish historiography, periods of the statehood of the Republic of Poland (Pol. Rzeczpospolita Polska) are un- officially numbered as follows: the First Republic (Pol.I. Rzeczpospolita, from the mid-15th century until the final partition of 1795), the Second Republic (Pol. II.

  • Parisian Culture's Views on Eastern Europe As a Factor
    POLISH POLITICAL SCIENCE VOL XXXIV 2005 PL ISSN 0208-7375 ISBN 83-7322-481-5 PARISIAN CULTURE’S VIEWS ON EASTERN EUROPE AS A FACTOR IN CONTEMPORARY POLISH FOREIGN POLICY by Iwona Hofman When analyzing events which unfolded in the Ukraine during the fi nal months of 2004 and the involvement of Polish politicians and public opinion in the strug- gle for the preservation of the democratic character of presidential elections, a question arises regarding the connection of their actions with the political projects of Jerzy Giedroyć, the founder and sole editor of an infl uential magazine and a centre of political thought, which was Culture , published in Maisons-Laffi tte, near Paris, in the years 1947–2000. Historians and political scientists rightly emphasize the fact that the „Eastern doctrine”, also known as the ULB doctrine (from the abbreviation of „Ukraine, Lithuania, Belarus”), has been a constant element of Polish foreign policy since 1989. Generally speaking, Giedroyć was convinced that nationalist impulses would eventually destroy the Russian empire from within, and a sovereign Poland would gain three new neighbours in the East: Ukraine, Lithu- ania and Belarus. " is process was expected to take place in the near future, as foreseen by Culture contributors who called on the émigrés from Eastern Europe to work together in laying solid foundations for the future partnership. Restricted in his political activities, Jerzy Giedroyć believed that words could be translated into actions. He also realized that a magazine whose program is characterized by far-reaching visions based on dismantling the European order shaped in Yalta, must fi rst of all fi ght national prejudices and stereotypes, present true history and show the common fate of the then enslaved nations.

Jak wskazano w powołują- cym go rozkazie, głównym celem było prowadzenie akcji wydawniczej w dziedzinie kulturalnej, literackiej i społecznej, a także zbieranie dorobku piśmiennictwa pol- skiego. Inicjatorem tego przedsięwzięcia i redaktorem był Jerzy Giedroyc. W okre- sie funkcjonowania Instytutu Literackiego, tj. w latach 1947–2000, ukazało się 637 numerów miesięcznika „Kultura”, 171 numerów kwartalnika „Zeszyty Historyczne” oraz książki: 26 publikacji w latach 1947–1952 i 378 książek w serii „Biblioteka Kul- tury”. Oprócz wskazanych wyżej publikacji, w archiwum Instytutu Literackiego za- chowała się bardzo duża liczba innych książek, czasopism polskich i zagranicznych, wycinków prasowych oraz dokumentów, listów i fotografii. Ich zebranie i uporząd- kowanie, a także wykonanie wersji elektronicznej było możliwe m.in. dzięki projek- tom: „Inwentarz Archiwum Instytutu Literackiego Kultura” oraz „Digitalizacja Ar- chiwum Instytutu Literackiego”. W artykule została zwrócona uwaga na proces digitalizacji zasobów Instytutu Lite- rackiego. Cyfrowe wersje oryginalnych tekstów źródłowych mogą bowiem posłu- żyć dalszym badaniom na temat spuścizny Jerzego Giedroycia.

    MIGHTIER THAN THE SWORD: POLISH INDEPENDENT PUBLISHING, 1976-1989 A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History. By Siobhan K. Doucette, M.A. Washington, DC April 11, 2013 Copyright 2013 by Siobhan K. Doucette All Rights Reserved ii MIGHTIER THAN THE SWORD: POLISH INDEPENDENT PUBLISHING, 1976-1989 Siobhan K. Doucette, M.A. Thesis Advisor: Andrzej S. Kamiński, Ph.D. ABSTRACT This dissertation analyzes the rapid growth of Polish independent publishing between 1976 and 1989, examining the ways in which publications were produced as well as their content. Widespread, long-lasting independent publishing efforts were first produced by individuals connected to the democratic opposition; particularly those associated with KOR and ROPCiO. Independent publishing expanded dramatically during the Solidarity-era when most publications were linked to Solidarity, Rural Solidarity or NZS. By the mid-1980s, independent publishing obtained new levels of pluralism and diversity as publications were produced through a bevy of independent social milieus across every segment of society. Between 1976 and 1989, thousands of independent titles were produced in Poland. Rather than employing samizdat printing techniques, independent publishers relied on printing machines which allowed for independent publication print-runs in the thousands and even tens of thousands, placing Polish independent publishing on an incomparably greater scale than in any other country in the Communist bloc. By breaking through social atomization and linking up individuals and milieus across class, geographic and political divides, independent publications became the backbone of the opposition; distribution networks provided the organizational structure for the Polish underground.
