Project 2012 - 2014 INTEGRA PROJECT 2012 - 2014 European cooperation in the area of adult education Grundtvig Programme is part of the European grant Lifelong Learning Programme, LLP 2007-2013. It is focused on European cooperation in the area of education of adults, educational needs of people in all forms of adult education, i.e. focused on people older than 16 years with the exception of full time students of higher secondary and tertiary education institutions or universities. European Commission provides through GRUNDTVIG programme financial means (grants) for mobility of people who are involved in the area of adult education and for project activities to institutions which provide or support adult education. 3 Integra Project In the year 2013 started the project supported by the Slovak Academic Association for International Cooperation, the National Agency for Life Long Learning Programme in the sub-programme Grundtvig with the name INTEGRA. Partners in the project are Social Services Homes and Homes for seniors. The project coordinator is: » citizens’ association Traditional Folk Arts and Crafts Partners of the project: » Centre of social services, Český Těšín » Dom Pomocy Spolecznej im.Wladyslawa Godynia, Kraków » Éltes Mátyás Nevelési Oktatási Kozpont , Mosonmagyarovar The project was focused on teaching folk crafts to disabled people, seniors and occupational therapists. One of the active participants of the project was also the Social Services Home Zelený dom in Skalica. In the years 2013-2014 the mobility meetings took place in all partner towns: Český Těšín, Mossonmagyarovar, Skalica , Krakow and Piešťany. The opportunity was used not only by clients of the institutions, but also by occupational therapists, who could learn new technological procedures in production of new products and then they used them in their home organisations. This brochure will inform you in more detail on the course of the project, its results and mainly on the need to work in similar projects. All the partners prepared it together and expressed their knowledge, experience, and mainly their effort to continue in the started activities also in the future. 4 Material and published photographs have been provided by the project partnersl Basic information about the organization The citizens´ assotiation Traditional Folk Arts and Crafts Strečanského 602, 920 41 Leopoldov, Slovakia The citizens’ association Tradičné ľudové umelecké remeslá (Traditional Folk Arts and Crafts) was founded in 2006. Its activity is focused on maintaining traditional arts and crafts, presentation of crafts and craftsmen in Slovakia as well as abroad. Main activities of the association include organising of international festivals of folk craftsmen, work with disabled people and senior citizens, education for occupational therapists. Organising of events started in 2009 in the Slovak spa town Piešťany with the event Traditional folk arts and crafts. In the first year 120 craftsmen participated and the number of participants has increased year by year. This event is very popular with craftsmen as well as visitors. Young visitors are discovering traditional crafts and the older ones are remembering. Every year the visitors can see up to 50 kinds of crafts. They can admire the work of potters, tinkers, woodcarvers, jewellers, lace makers, decorated Easter eggs makers, makers of cornhusk-dolls, leather products, and a lot of other traditional Slovak crafts. Our intention is also to introduce craftsmen from other countries. Our invitation has been accepted by the craftsmen from the Czech Republic and Moravia, Poland, Serbia, Sweden, Belgium, Croatia, Macedonia, China, Hungary, Israel, Slovenia. The event is under the patronage of the First Lady of Slovakia, Mrs. Silvia Gašparovičová. The project Traditional folk arts and crafts won the award from the National Agency for Development of Small and Medium Enterprises in 2011, and we advanced as the national candidate to the European round of this competition where we won the “European Enterprise Promotion Award”. 5 Our developing activities have brought us also to cooperation with the Slovak Academic Association. We have been cooperating with this organisation since 2010, and the Association has supported us in several projects prepared by us in the GRUNDTVIG sub-programme. The projects have been focused on teaching the disabled people, seniors and occupational therapists in the area of folk arts and crafts. We have actively cooperated with social services homes (DSS) within these projects, e.g. DSS Zelený dom in Skalica, Slovakia. We prepared the workshop “Learn a craft” in the High Tatras, courses for individual participants, two-year project INTEGRA where our partners are also social services homes from the Czech Republic, Poland and Hungary. We have a special cooperation with the citizens’ association Quadrifolia. In our mutual projects we are focused on teaching seniors and disabled people traditional crafts and education for occupational therapists. Since the year 2012 we have been organising events in Senec, Slovakia and in 2013 we started this tradition in the Slovak towns Hlohovec, Skalica and Žilina under the name Folk Arts and Crafts. In all these events there are 80-150 traditional producers as participants who present their own art. This is one of the conditions for their participation. Regular participants are social services homes – DSS Zelený dom in Skalica, DSS Merema from Modra and DSS Betánia from Senec. In 2014 we organized seven international festivals of folk craftsmen in Slovakia: in Nitra, Piešťany, Hlohovec, Skalica, Štrbské Pleso, Senec a Žilina. The events Traditional arts and crafts are held under the patronage of the Ministry of Economy of the Slovak Republic.

Januš Foltyn, Director of Centre of Social Services Český Těšín 8 Centre of Social Services Český Těšín, a contributory organization (CSS) Grundtvig Lifelong Learning Project was the first project funded by the EU, which was attended by our organization. I have to admit that before the start of the project we were full of expectation and uncertainty of how we manage role of a partner in this project. On the other hand, with the Polish partner has joined us have several years of cooperation. So we already knew what we can expect from it and also activity, initiative and clearly defined goals of our Slovak project coordinator were promise for successful project implementation. I have to state that the project has exceeded our expectation. In the project we engage more people in your organization than we had originally anticipated and therefore we could pass on more information about the project to our users, who were involved in this project indirectly, through our employees. At the first partnership meeting in our country in Český Těšín we presented primarily methods of work with paper (so-called quilling) and our own methods of work with ceramics. The results of these methods, we had the chance to see at a second meeting at our Hungarian partners, where to the work with ceramics were involved disabled youngsters, as well as at the third meeting with Slovak patrner. Thereby was also fulfilled one of the objectives of this project, the integration of persons with disabilities. Fine motor skills when working with paper yielded results in the form of products, presented by our Polish partners, which certainly had a positive impact on increasing self-confidence and optimism for seniors.

  • Legacy of Religious Identities in the Urban Space of Bielsko-Biała
    PRaCE GEOGRaFiCznE, zeszyt 137 instytut Geografii i Gospodarki Przestrzennej UJ Kraków 2014, 137 – 158 doi : 10.4467/20833113PG.14.013.2158 Legacy of reLigious identities in the urban space of bieLsko-biała Emilia Moddelmog-Anweiler Abstract : Religious heritage is an important cultural resource for a city. First, cities are at the crossroads of conflicting trends in globalisation. Urban communities are looking for that which makes them universal and unique at the same time. Second, reflection on identity in relation to the heritage and history of a city reveals the multicultural past of Central and Eastern Europe, and shows an image of social change and transformation. Religious heritage plays, therefore, various roles. Places connected with religious identities have symbolic, sacred and artistic meanings. They construct a local universe of meaning ; they are an important factor of the local narrative and customs, and they place it in the context of national, regional and ethnic traditions. Churches, temples, and cemeteries are also a sign of memory, this shows not only history but also the contemporary processes of remember- ing and forgetting. The city of Bielsko-Biała was a cultural and religious mosaic until 1945. Jewish, German and Polish cultures were meeting here everyday with diverse religious belonging and boundaries. Today, the heritage of its religious identity is recognized mainly via monuments, tourist attractions, and cultural events. Only occasionally is the religious heritage of the city analysed in the context of collective identities. Urban space still reflects the complexity of the relationships between religious, national, and regional identities. The purpose of the paper is to describe the variety of functions of religious heritage in a contemporary city on the example of Bielsko-Biała in Poland.

During his several-week expedition, he visited a few capital cities and returned with observations free of any hope, on the day preceding the breakout of decisive battles in the east. Posner highlighted that even those who had been siding with Poland, such as French President Alexandre Millerand, assuring of his support for Warsaw in the conflict with the Czechs ,“is siding with them and, in other matters, will always submit to the opinion of England, because he depends on her as a creditor. What can I say about the others? The issue of compensation, the issue of Gdańsk, the issue of the plebiscites – are worse than ever.” The following weeks confirmed these observations. Even among recent sympathisers of Poland’s cause there was no shortage of those observing with indifference our battle with Bolshevism, interested, at most, in taking as much as they could for themselves. The year 1920 did not just mean the struggle with Bolshevism, but also a clash with the indifference and reluctance from the West. Hence the assistance we received from those willing to help us at this dramatic time was even more valuable.

  • Testament Jana Śliwki Z 1873 Roku
    ZESZYTY NAUKOWE UNIWERSYTETU JAGIELLOŃSKIEGO MCCCXXIII Prace Historyczne 139 (2012) doi:10.4467/20844069PH.12.012.0780 Michael Morys-Twarowski TESTAMENT JANA ŚLIWKI Z 1873 ROKU Jan Śliwka był jednym z czołowych polskich działaczy narodowych na Śląsku Cieszyńskim1. Urodził się w 1823 roku w biednej rodzinie w Ustroniu koło Cieszyna. Ukończył gimnazjum ewangelickie w Cieszynie, a następnie sześciotygodniowy kurs nauczycielski. Pracował w Końskiej (obecnie na Zaolziu), a od 1851 roku w szkole ewangelickiej w Cieszynie. Był prezbiterem i sekretarzem zboru ewangelickiego, działał w licznych towarzystwach (Czytelnia Ludowa w Cieszynie, Towarzystwo Nauczycieli Ludowych, Towarzystwo Rolnicze Księstwa Cieszyńskiego). Publiko- wał teksty na łamach prasy; wydawał „Rocznik Ewangelicki”, a przez krótki czas na- wet pełnił funkcję redaktora „Gwiazdki Cieszyńskiej”. Przede wszystkim zapisał się jako autor polskich podręczników dla szkół ludowych. Był człowiekiem bardzo pra- cowitym i aktywnym, jednak już przed 50. rokiem życia nabawił się poważnej cho- roby płuc. W 1872 roku przebywał na kuracji w Jaworzu, pod koniec roku powrócił do pracy. Na początku następnego roku stan zdrowia Śliwki się pogorszył i ponownie musiał zrezygnować z działalności zawodowej, jak się okazało na zawsze2. Zmarł 15 kwietnia 1874 roku w Cieszynie na suchoty (Lungensucht). Dwa dni później zo- stał pochowany na miejscowym cmentarzu ewangelickim3. Ciekawym źródłem do biografi i Jana Śliwki, dotychczas niewykorzystanym przez badaczy, jest jego testament sporządzony 24 czerwca 1873 roku w Cieszynie. Nie ulega wątpliwości, że zapisy ostatniej woli są wartościowym źródłem historycz- nym. Wykorzystywane są m.in. do badań genealogicznych, nad historią mentalności 1 O Janie Śliwce zob.: K.

  • The Selected Aspects of Strategic Management in the City Divided By
    2019 POLISH JOURNAL OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES Vol.19 No.1 Dacko-Pikiewicz Z. THE SELECTED ASPECTS OF STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT IN THE CITY DIVIDED BY THE BORDER IN THE CONTEXT OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE CROSS-BORDER MARKET OF CULTURAL SERVICES Dacko-Pikiewicz Z. * Abstract: The article is of research nature. The analysis of strategic documents of the city of Cieszyn-Český Těšín divided by the state border, as well as individual in-depth interviews with the directors of all local government cultural institutions in this city allowed for the identification of opportunities for further development of the common Polish-Czech cross-border market of cultural services. The research conducted proves that despite the dynamically developing Polish-Czech cross-border cooperation in the field of culture, there are still no mentions in the strategic documents pointing directly to the need to intensify common Polish-Czech cultural activities, and thus indicating the need to develop the cross-border market of cultural services. Therefore, by following the interview results, actions in the area of strategic management were specified, which could significantly contribute to the so-called "blurring of the border" and the development of this market in the city of Cieszyn-Český Těšín. The recommendations may be useful not only for the authorities of the city of Cieszyn-Český Těšín, but also for decision-makers and cultural managers of other European cities in the Schengen area that are divided by the state border. Key words: city divided by the border, cross-border market of cultural services, development, strategic management, Cieszyn-Český Těšín DOI: 10.17512/pjms.2019.19.1.10 Article history: Received January 20, 2019; Revised March 12, 2019; Accepted March 20, 2019 Introduction The management of the city which has been divided by the state border is a complicated process, which requires interdisciplinary knowledge of many diverse issues, based, among others, on culture, economics, spatial management, environmental protection or different two independent states.

  • A Guide for Readers and Teachers
    Six Thousand Miles to Home: A Guide for Readers and Teachers This guide collates notes relevant to the socio-cultural and historical contexts of the novel Six Thousand Miles to Home. It is organized according to the narrative’s chronology and divided according to the novel’s three major sections and their respective chapters. Background material—about Jewish life in both Poland and Iran—precedes the sections of the book set in those countries. In between the notes for each chapter are historical “snapshots,” most of them derived from primary source material, and which serve to illustrate events described in the novel. Please check back at this web page for revised versions of this free guide. JEWISH LIFE IN POLAND, SILESIA, AND TESCHEN Numerous volumes recount in detail the thousand-year history of Jews in Poland as well as the circumstances particular to the Silesian Duchy of Teschen and its Jewish inhabitants.1 What follows here is a summary. Medieval Period Jews inhabited Poland since at least the tenth century when, fleeing persecution in German territories, they made their way east.2 One legend recounts that a scrap of paper directed them to “Polaniaya,” a Hebrew name for Poland, which they interpreted as meaning “Here God dwells.” They arrived in a forest where they heard the word Polin, another Hebrew name for Poland, which they interpreted as “Po-lin,” “Rest here.” In some versions [of the legend], a cloud broke and an angel’s hand pointed the way and a voice said “Po-lin.” According to [another] version […], Jews entering the forest discovered tractates of the Talmud carved on the trees; in other versions, pages of the sacred texts floated down.3 This story begins in a town called Teschen (called Cieszyn both before and after the time of this narrative) was populated by Slavic peoples by at least the seventh century.

  • The Polish-Czechoslovakian Conflict Over Cieszyn Silesia, Spiš and Orava
    HISTORIA I ŚWIAT, nr 9 (2020) ISSN 2299 - 2464 Jarosław CABAJ (Siedlce University, Poland) The Polish-Czechoslovakian Conflict over Cieszyn Silesia, Spiš and Orava in the years 1938-1939 as Reported by the Polish Provincial Press published in Siedlce https://doi.org/10.34739/his.2020.09.08 Abstract: The paper touches upon the theme of how the provincial press in Poland commented on the Polish-Czechoslovakian conflict over Cieszyn Silesia, Spiš and Orava. The timespan covers a few months in 1938 and 1939 - from the time Hitler made his claims towards Czechoslovakia until the moment the state was dismantled. The author has focused on presenting the Polish-Czechoslovakian relations as reported by the press published in Siedlce, a district town located in the centre of pre-war Poland. At that time four periodicals were published there. The analysis of these publications has allowed the author to determine that the editors informed their readers about the situation of the disputed territories on a regular basis. The editors tried to make their message more attractive by posting photos or accounts by special correspondents. They built among its readers a negative image of the Czechoslovakian state, which was presented as an artificial creation where the rights of national minorities were not respected. The incorporation of these lands into Poland was presented as a symbol of historical justice. The press also played an important part in mobilising the local community to act for fellow countrymen from the lands being the object of the Polish-Czechoslovakian dispute. However, it did not recognise the growth of Slovakian independence activities, which were important for the internal affairs of Poland’s southern neighbour.

  • Images of the Urban Spaces of Cieszyn
    BULLETIN Of GEOGRAPHY SOCIO–ECONOMIC SERIES No. 15/2011 KATARZYNA KULCZYŃSKA, ROMAN MATYKOWSKI ADAM MICKIEWICZ UNIVERSITY, POLAND IMAGES OF THE URBAN SPACES OF CIESZYN DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.2478/v10089-011-0006-9 ABSTRACT. A number of specific characteristics of the town of Cieszyn are inherently related to its history. Since 1920, Cieszyn has been divided by a state border along the Olza river (except for the war time of 1938–1945). Before that, since the 17th century, the town was part of the Austrian Habsburg empire and was under imperial Vienna’s cultural influence. The contemporary structure of the Polish part of Cieszyn includes numerous elements reflecting the town’s specificity. Therefore, the social cognitive image of Cieszyn comprises those components of its spatial structure too. KEY WORDS: Poland, Cieszyn, perception, cognitive image, urban space. INTRODUCTION: THE TOWN’S SPECIFIC FEATURES In the late 13th century, the Duchy of Teschen became the fief of the Czech king and remained part of the Czech landholding until 1620 when the country collapsed and became dependent on the Habsburgs. The Duchy of Teschen was ruled by the Polish Piast dynasty until 1653. After the death of the last duchess in the line, Elisabeth Lucrezia, the land was incorporated as a fief into St. Wenceslaus’ Crown (Czech kings) and the Austrian Habsburg empire until the dissolution of Austria-Hungary in 1918. As a result of an interim division of Cieszyn Silesia between the emerging new states of Czechoslovakia and Poland, the town of Cieszyn was under Polish control until July 1920 (after Czechoslovak troops had occupied it for a short time early in 1919).

    Foreword The book in reader’s hands looks at manifestations of magical thinking in everyday lives of denizens of Cieszyn Silesia (Teschen Silesia, Těšín Silesia) in the premodern era� In the book, I recreate the magical dimension of routine and habitual ways of perceiving and thinking about reality, and therefore of the magical dimension of conceptualizing and ordering reality during the pre- modern era by means of works of narrative folklore collected by local folklorists between the 1950s and the 1980s of the twentieth century� The book, which was published by the University of Silesia in 2008, is an attempt to recreate the mag- ical image of the world shared by the broadest social strata of Cieszyn Silesia� It is also an attempt at finding an answer to the question of the role that magical thinking played in social construction of reality (Berger and Luckmann 1989) in the premodern era� When presenting a book dedicated to the English- speaking reader, we should first explain why in an anthropological study looking at magical thinking as part of social construction of reality, we choose to refer to relatively obscure region of Cieszyn Silesia, one of Silesian provinces, which constituted part of Habsburg’s monarchy since 1918� The Duchy of Teschen territory mentioned in contempo- rary anthropological, sociological and linguistic literature in English is known most commonly as the borderland� Works dedicated to Cieszyn Silesia typically focus on the study of processes that shape collective identities and processes of linguistic change,
