  • 212 Short Notes
    SHORT NOTES* MIDDLE AGES Krzysztof Czapla, Dziadoszanie. Plemię zamieszkujące ziemię głogowską w X wieku [Dziadoszan: the tribe inhabiting the Głogów Land in the 10th century], Głogów, 2014, Państwowa Wyższa Szkoła Zawodowa w Głogowie, 257 pp., ills., maps, tables, diagrams, list of archaeological sites, figure, map, table and diagram captions; explanatory notes to the archaeological sites’ list in Polish and English, summary in English 1 The purpose of this archaeological study is to describe the population – named Dziadoszan (Dziadoszanie) – that inhabited the constellation of settlement clusters in the area of Głogów (ca. 1,500 sq. km) between the appearance of Slavic settlement (late 5th – early 6th centuries) and the integration of this territory into the newly-emerging states (mid-10th c.). The focus is on the natural environment, the development of forms of settlement (how the settlements were deployed relative to the landforms, soils and water network; the sizes and arrangement of the settlements, designs of the buildings), the economic foundations (hunting, agriculture, crafts and trade) and forms of social and political organisation. It is remarked that the network of settle- ments emerged at a rather early date locally, and kept in contact with the neighbouring communities and, in parallel, with the countries in the West and in the South (as testified by objects scarcely imported from the East Frankian, Avar and Bohemian-Moravian areas). In the late years of the period under discussion, strongholds appeared in the lands inhabited by the Dziadoszan tribe, with seventeen settlement clusters developed around them, occupying an area of 5 to 25 sq. km each, and each comprising one (or, rarely, two) strongholds (there moreover were twenty-eight settlement clusters without such central hubs).

  • Lecture 21 the Polish October And
    - 1 - Lecture 21 The Polish October and the ‘Little Stabilization’ 1. The Polish October The rigid Stalinist system established in Poland between 1949 and 1953 did not long outlast the death of Stalin in March 1953. Yet the process by which it was dismantled proved initially to be somewhat slower than parallel developments in Hungary and Czechoslovakia. Indeed, the high point in the conflict between the Church and the Communist authorities, the arrest of the Primate, Cardinal Wyszyński and his confinement in a monastery took place as late as September 1953. Similarly, in spite of some concessions to the ‘New Course’ adopted by Georgi Malenkov in the USSR in August 1953, the second congress of the Polish United Workers Party in March 1954 still upheld without major modification the basic Stalinist economic policies of rapid industrialization, stress on heavy industry and further collectivization in agriculture. A number of factors explain the relative lack of movement in Polish politics in the year after Stalin’s death. In the first place, the process of Stalinization had not been as ruthlessly pursued in Poland as elsewhere in Eastern Europe. As late as 1955, for instance, agriculture was dominated by private production, with state farms controlling only 14 per cent of arable land and collectives 9 per cent. A significant private industrial sector and class of artisans had also managed to survive in spite of punitive taxation. Though Władysław Gomułka and a number of his associates had been purged from the party and imprisoned, the party leadership had rejected all pressures from Moscow to make them the victims of a show trial similar to those taking place elsewhere in Eastern - 2 - Europe.

    Acta Poloniae llistorica 76, 1997 PL ISSN 0001 - 6829 Krystyna Kersten THE POGROM OF JEWS IN KIELCE ON JULY 4, 1946 On July 4,1946, Kielce was the scene of violent anti-Jewish excesses as a result of which 42 people, including two Poles, lost their lives, and over 40 people were injured. Among those who died nine people suffered gun-shot wounds and two were stabbed with bayonets. Moreover eight of the injured suffered bullet wounds. Others suffered serious injuries as a result of beating. The Stale o f Research Historical research on the Kielce pogrom, after a period of complete silence, was taken up in Poland in the 1980s in the circles connected with the then opposition and has been continued since. The publications that appeared outside Poland are mainly based on accounts by witnesses, mostly Jews, on press reports and information provided by foreign correspondents who arrived in Kielce immediately after the events. Their authors had no access to the documents and records of law-suits, which were available to Polish researchers. A pioneering historical work whose author recreated the devel­ opment of the tragedy in detail is the book by Bożena Szaynok1. One should also mention a two-volume publication of the sources dealing with the pogrom and its background, prepared by Stanisław M e d u c k i and Zenon W ro n a 2. It is worth emphasizing that although the source mate rials contained in the archives of the Ministry of Internal Affairs (not open to the 1 B.

  • The Polish – Soviet Confrontation in 1956 and the Attempted Soviet Military Intervention in Poland
    EUROPE-ASIA STUDIES Vol. 58, No. 8, December 2006, 1285 – 1310 The Polish – Soviet Confrontation in 1956 and the Attempted Soviet Military Intervention in Poland KRZYSZTOF PERSAK In 1956, a deep political crisis developed in Poland. The power elite was paralysed by internal conflicts and public feelings were strongly anti-Soviet. The Kremlin viewed this situation with concern. On 19 October, the Soviet leadership sent a top-level delegation to Warsaw to prevent changes in the Politburo which they feared might lead to Poland’s secession from the Soviet bloc. Simultaneously, Soviet troops located in Poland started an advance towards Warsaw. After the dramatic talks between Khrushchev and Gomułka Soviet intervention was ceased but it took several more days before the Kremlin gave up an armed-intervention solution in Poland. It was China’s firm objection to it and the outbreak of the Hungarian Revolution that made Soviet military engagement in Poland impossible. FOR POLISH –SOVIET RELATIONS THE YEAR 1956 STARTED WITH TWO far-reaching events. The first event—of worldwide importance—was the Twentieth Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU), at which Nikita Khrushchev delivered the secret speech denouncing Stalin’s crimes. Soon after the first secretary of the Central Committee of the Polish United Workers’ Party (PUWP), Bolesław Bierut, died of a heart attack during a stay in Moscow. The thaw in Poland Khrushchev’s speech, broadly publicised in Poland, was a shock to communists, but raised hope for a rapid change among wide circles of society. Contrary to the author’s intentions, the report condemning Stalin’s ‘personality cult’ struck at the heart of the ruling system.
