John T femllkwski’ Or Antony PoKxtsky’ " G«xgo M Szehad' Susa" Unmoor" I am taking the liberty of letting you know that The American Foundation for Polish-Jewish Studies has learned privately that Tygodnik Powszechny ("Univer­ sal Weekly"), Poland's leading weekly which serves as a major forum for debates about the future of the country, stands in danger of having to cease publica­ tion. Founded as a vehicle for Catholic public opin­ ion in Krakow in March 1945, two months after the city's liberation, Tygodnik Powszechny (which is not an organ of the Catholic church) undergoes frequent, and at times, quite severe, censorship by the govern­ ment. Yet its editors have continued to write and publish most incisive criticism of the government and the Party at great risk to their personal safety and freedom. The current economic hardships in Poland have driven up the cost of paper, production, and distribution to a point at which, economically embattled, the weekly, and Znak ("Sign," its sister publication,) can barely continue. In addition, given Tygodnik Powszechny's adversary stance toward the government, the rest of the obstacles faced by the weekly can be safely left to your imagination. Writes Dr. Antony Polonsky: "Since it first appeared 42 years ago, Tygodnik Powszechny has established itself as perhaps the most independent newspaper published legally in Poland. (It did not appear between March 1953 and the I no Ametcd/i FoundaUci lor Pnlbb-Jewnb 5lmMs It nwclMiC ♦‘l" rh» Inainulo fur Pulmh-JtmA Siuoo« a> CMonJ tnglanc end legiauuud n Iho US at a cnarrry Al contrcv&ons ae lax-ttedudibls. - 2 - end of 1956 because it refused to print ar. obituary of Stalin.) It has a wide following in Polish society, particularly among the intel­ ligentsia and although its circulation is deliberately restricted to 80,000 it probably reaches at least million readers. Heavily censored, it has, since 1981, taken advantage of the new censorship law which al­ lows it to reveal where an article has been cut. Tygodnik Powszechny's editor, Jerzy Turowicz has been a consistent advocate of Polish-Jewish and Christian-Jewish rapprochement and many articles on Jewish themes have appeared in the paper, starting with its strong condemnation over 40 years ago of the Kielce pogrom. Ironically, it was the government's press spokesman, Jerzy Urban, himself of Jewish origin, who contemptu­ ously described the paper as 'philo-semitic'." Had Jerzy Turowicz, one of Europe's most straighforward editors, pub­ lished his Tygodnik Powszechny in these freedom-loving United States, his courageous editorial judgment would no doubt lead to commercial success, as well as to critical appreciation. But not so m Poland, a land gripped by a hopeless depression, where food shortages are per­ ennial, and the waiting period for apartments ranges from 10 to 50 years. As a result, Tygodnik now finds itself caught in an economic struggle in which, for once, self-reliance is not enough. The revenues from th© circulation of the weekly and Znak, barely cover the costs of publication, and the immediate future of these journals is in doubt. The American Foundation for Polish-Jewish Studies feels morally obliged to pay tribute to Jerzy Turowicz, and to his intellectually enlightened weekly, which has been for decades Poland's foremost spiritual guide. We plan to establish an award called Sapere Auso, meaning "the one who dares to be wise," after an award of the same name given in Poland dur­ ing the eighteenth century. Early next year, the award will be given to Jerzy Turowicz, arid Lt will be accompanied by a sum sufficient to assure the continued publication of Tygodnik Powszechny and znak. Jerzy Turowicz will receive this award at a ceremony in an American city to which leading members of the American clergy and laity, as well as donors, and notable inidividuals who believe in the freedom of the press, will be invited. The influence of Tygodnik Powszechny stretches far beyond Poland, to countries where emigres depend upon its pages for news of their country, where they often reprint its articles and translate them into the verna­ cular to be shared with the local community. His Holiness John Paul 11 is an avid reader of Tygodnik, and knows many of its editors and contri­ butors personally. When one also considers that today approximately one out of every three Catholic priests in the world is Polish, one begins to grasp the significance of the leading Catholic voice in Poland. One can then understand how the rescue of Tygodnik Powszechy, the action in which we hope to enlist your help, becomes even more called upon. A total of $50,000 will cover an award to Jerzy Turowicz, which will be accompanied by an appropriate check for Tygodnik Powszechny, and will cover Foundation administrative costs for the award, including the cost of bringing Jerzy Turowicz to America for the ceremony. It 3 - will contribute toward a fund for translating into English The Poor Poles Look at the Ghetto and Other Essays (Recent Polish Debates on rhe Holocaust) edited by Dr. Antony Polonsky of Oxford University, (first published on the pages of Tygodnik Powszechny ) the publication of which in this country will immensely contribute to Christian — Jewish dialogue. 1 am convinced that by now you fully understand the spiritual impor­ tance of this call as much as we do. We hope, therefore, that, taxing yourself to the fullest, you will make a most substantial tax-deduct­ ible contribution to The American Foundation for Polish-Jewish Studies— The Fund of Tygodnik Powszechny, in order to assure that an indepen­ dent and Catholic point of view--the leading voice of dissenting opi­ nion in Eastern Europe—continues to thrive in Poland. I look forward to hearing from you. Sincerely, Jerzy Kosinski Chairman of the Board, 60 West 57th Street New York, N.Y. 10019.

  • After Miłosz: Polish Poetry in the 20Th and the 21Th Century Chicago, Chopin Theatre, 9/30 –10/3 2011
    After Miłosz: Polish Poetry In the 20th and the 21th Century Chicago, Chopin Theatre, 9/30 –10/3 2011 THE FESTIVAL The Chicago's literary festival titled After Milosz: Polish Poetry in the 20th and 21th Century is the largest presentation of Polish poetry in the United States this year. The festival celebrates the year of Czeslaw Milosz and commemorates the centennial anniversary of the birth of the Nobel Prize winner. The event goes beyond a familiar formula of commenting the work of the poet and offers a broader view on the contemporary Polish poetry. Besides the academic conference dedicated to Milosz's work, and a panel with the greatest America poets (Jorie Graham, Charles Simic) remembering the artist and discussing his influence on American poetry, the program includes readings of the most talented modern Polish poets of three generations. From the best known (Zagajewski, Sommer) to the most often awarded young writer nowadays, Justyna Bargielska. An important part of the festival will be two concerts: the opening show will present the best Polish rappers FISZ and EMADE whose songs are inspired by Polish poetry; another concert will present one of the best jazz singers in the world, Patricia Barber, who will perform especially for this occasion. The main organizers of the festival are the Fundation of Tygodnik Powszechny magazine and the Joseph Conrad International Literary Festival in Krakow, for which the Chicago festival is a portion of the larger international project for promoting Polish literature abroad. The co- organizer of the festival is the Head of the Slavic Department at University of Illinois at Chicago, Professor Michal Pawel Markowski, who represents also the Polish Interdisciplinary Program at UIC supported by The Hejna Fund, and also serves as the artistic director to the Conrad Festival.

INTRODUCTION “We were taught as children”—I was told by a seventy- year-old Pole—“that we Poles never harmed anyone. A partial abandonment of this morally comfortable position is very, very difficult for me.” —Helga Hirsch, a German journalist, in Polityka, 24 February 2001 HE COMPLEX and often acrimonious debate about the charac- ter and significance of the massacre of the Jewish population of T the small Polish town of Jedwabne in the summer of 1941—a debate provoked by the publication of Jan Gross’s Sa˛siedzi: Historia za- głady z˙ydowskiego miasteczka (Sejny, 2000) and its English translation Neighbors: The Destruction of the Jewish Community in Jedwabne, Poland (Princeton, 2001)—is part of a much wider argument about the totali- tarian experience of Europe in the twentieth century. This controversy reflects the growing preoccupation with the issue of collective memory, which Henri Rousso has characterized as a central “value” reflecting the spirit of our time.1 One key element in the understanding of collec- tive memory is the “dark past” of nations—those aspects of the na- tional past that provoke shame, guilt, and regret; this past needs to be integrated into the national collective identity, which itself is continu- ally being reformulated.2 In this sense, memory has to be understood as a public discourse that helps to build group identity and is inevita- bly entangled in a relationship of mutual dependence with other iden- tity-building processes.

    WRESTLING WITH GHOSTS: POLES AND JEWS TODAY Madeline G. Levine "Everyone knows that Poles imbibe anti~Semitism with their mothers' milk." '1t's a well-known fact that those who accuse Poles of anti-Semitism are enemies of Poland." Everyone who has spent any time talking to Poles and Jews about the relations between them has heard some version of the sentiments paraphrased in these two comments. Even though Jews and Poles no longer live together in Poland, the simple phrase "Poles and Jews" evokes powerful emotions. Jews have bitter memories of friction and conflict, of being despised and threatened by Poles. Distrust of and dislike of Poles is handed down within the culture; most Jews today have had no personal experience of living among Poles. In contrast, when challenged to think about Polish-Jewish relations, Poles are quite likely to recall the good old days before the Nazis came when Poles and Jews got along very well with each other. But this sentimental memory is often linked with a sense of betrayal; since Jewish-Polish relations are remembered as good, Jewish accusations of Polish anti-Semitism are perceived as base ingratitude, if not treachery. In the ethnic cauldron that is Eastern Europe, there is nothing unusual about the historic frictions between Poles and Jews, for there can be little doubt that intense ethnic animosity is one of the principal features of the region. To be sure, Eastern Europe is not unique in this regard Ethnic conflict is a universal phenomenon, emerging from a tangled web of linguistic, religious, economic, and (broadly defined) cultural differences.

  • 25. Włodzimierz Mich
    Włodzimierz Mich The Issue of the Memory of Shoah in the Polish Press after 1989 Introduction The purpose of this study is to sum up a certain stage of the discus- sion on the Holocaust held in the Polish press after 1989 and it is hardly intended as a media studies examination of the approach to the issue rep- resented by particular newspapers and magazines. Instead, the analysis aims at reconstructing the positions that emerged from the debate and the argumentation used to justify them. My considerations are based on publications appearing between 1989 and the middle of the 1990s, when the case of the Jedwabne pogrom was brought into the public debate. The approach was determined by strictly practical considerations, as to examine the journalistic writings from later years would have required further time-consuming study. Substantive reasons existed as well, for the currently operating perceptions of the Holocaust were first articulated in the period under study. Moreover, it was then that this issue was the subject of heated polemics. The starting point of most discussions was the view then functioning in the West that the Holocaust was unique and hence people had the obli- gation to preserve the memory of the Shoah and to act upon a moral dic- tate of opposing anti-Semitism and compensating descendants of Holocaust victims. What seemed especially interesting was the Polish aspect of this issue, that is, the accusations put forward against the Poles and the postulates that were voiced. This aspect was examined from both the moral and the practical point of view.

    Working Paper 2020/16/ATL Polish Citizens in a Transformed Society: A Social Contract Perspective on Business and Ethics in Poland Iwona Kuraszko Bolöv INSEAD, [email protected] N. Craig Smith INSEAD, [email protected] When 10 million Polish workers united to form the Solidarity movement in 1980, it became the first domino to fall in a chain of events that led to the collapse of the Soviet Empire. Within Poland, Solidarity created a social contract for rebuilding Polish society with the values of justice, dignity and freedom. Yet the actual transformation that Poland underwent emphasized mainly freedom, of those three values. Leaders implemented “shock therapy” to transform the economic system into a free market economy—with scant regard to the effects on human welfare. Today, Poland is regarded as one of the success stories of the post-Soviet transformation. But many Polish workers and consumers have felt excluded from the gains in living standards. Critics complain that the values of dignity and justice were ignored in the process of bolstering Poland’s economic freedom. Illustrating this at the level of the firm are cases on a labor strike and a consumer protest that also show Polish citizens challenging the terms of the social contract under which businesses operate in Poland. The discussion concludes that, in newly established democracies, social contracts must continually evolve as the population awakens to the challenges of creating a free and inclusive society.

    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.

  • Jerzego Turowicza Wobec Literatury. Medium Prawie Doskonałe

Medium prawie doskonałe Abstract: The subject of the discussion is Jerzy Turowicz’s attitude to the issues of literature (based on queries in the decades when he was the editor-in-chief of “TP”, i.e. in the 1945–1995 half-century). The special position occupied by the journal from Krakow on the map of the communist-era Polish press is stressed. Since its establishment, this journal enjoyed wide and long-time support from the professor community of the Jagiellonian University, as well as other academies of Krakow. Assorted accounts from poets and prose authors, including Marek Skwarnicki, Jan Józef Szczepański, Jan Twar- dowski and others, were discussed. Attention was paid to Turowicz’s outstanding merits in discovering and advocating of literary talents (with an example of Father Jan Twardowski and Maria Jarczyńska- -Bukowska). Turowicz seldom wrote on poets and poetry, but he continuously monitored both do- mestic and emigration literature on this subject. He also had an extraordinary aesthetic sense which allowed him to select talented poets as his collaborators, and published authors whose fame went much further than the borders of Poland (cases of Father Karol Wojtyła, Czesław Miłosz, Stanisław Lem and others). Only under Turowicz, Polish literature had such a wide and competent coverage in “TP”. Thanks to this, readers could acquaint themselves with the foremost pens of literary criticism and were becoming thoroughly oriented in the Polish and world’s literature.

  • Stefan Zeromski's Ashes As a Postcolonial
    Historyka. Studia metodologiczne, T. XLII, 2012, ss. 77-95 STEFAN ŻEROMSKI’S ASHES AS A POSTCOLONIAL NARRATIVE Ewa Thompson abstract Stefan Żeromski’s historical novel Popioły [Ashes] (1904) is usually interpreted as a narrative about the Napoleonic wars, particularly about Napoleon’s campaign in Spain. The paper argues that the fast-moving war plot conceals the philosophical question to which Żeromski tried to provide an answer: did the Austrian empire represent a superior way of organizing human society, or was the liberty of the Polish “Sarmatian” republic a more appropriate answer to the question of how to live? The issue is indirectly contested by virtually all characters. It comes to a head in the relationship between two seemingly secondary characters, the Austrian tax collector Hibl and the Polish landowner Nardzewski. The former resembles William Faulkner’s Flem Snopes; the latter, the noble families of the Sartorises defeated in the Civil War. Like in Faulkner’s novels, there is an unmistakable suggestion of gloria victis in Żeromski’s opus. Unlike Faulkner, Żeromski brings to bear the issue of white-on-white colonialism in Europe, and the paper’s author suggests that the eighteenth-century seizure of parts of Poland by Europe’s three continental empires was an instance of European colonialism that delayed the development of non-Germanic Central Europe and eventually brought about twentieth-century European wars. KEYWORDS: colonialism, Galicia, Sarmatism, Stefan Zeromski, Jerzy Turowicz, liberty, republicanism, absolutism ••• During a trip to Poland in the 1970s I visited the headquarters of Tygodnik Powszechny in Kraków. Its editor, Jerzy Turowicz, proudly displayed in his office a portrait of Franz Joseph, Emperor of Austria and Hungary.1 From our conversation I learned that he was a great admirer of the Emperor.

    I NTRODUCTION ( War and peace start in the hearts of individuals. —Pema Chödrön “For me, it always began with friendship!”1 This comment by Stanisław Stomma during an interview about Polish–German relations on a rainy October a ernoon in Warsaw in 2004 has stayed with me throughout this project. He was ninety-six when we spoke, and ill; he died a few months later. He had welcomed my request for an interview, however, and he seemed excited about the subject. Stomma was born in 1908 in Szacuny near Kėdainiai in today’s Lithuania. He experienced the German occupa- tion of Eastern Europe during the First World War as a young boy. His mother, a widow in an unstable region, drew on the support and aid of occupying German soldiers.2 As a consequence, Stomma forged friend- ships with Germans, acquired fl uency in the German language as well as an admiration for German culture. In the postwar era, he rejected main- stream Polish memories, which demonized all Germans as “Hitlerites.”3 He became an integral conversation partner in the earliest dialogue be- tween Poles and West Germans in the 1950s, only eleven years a er the end of the Second World War. Stomma embodied through his personal and public life the winding and complex path of Polish–German relations. As Polish–German relations waxed and waned, his engagement proved that personal backgrounds and individual agency ma ered in these pub- lic and political developments. It also pointed to the entanglements, on structural and personal levels, that preceded and accompanied the recon- ciliation process.
