They are used constantly by both academic and private researchers who may be doing anything from looking for the town where their grandparents were born to tracing ethnolinguistic boundaries or changing political units. This region of Europe has been much fought over and as a result has been the subject of mapping by a variety of governments and their armies.

This situation has made the search for a single Austro-Hungarian identity so difficult that many historians have declared it impossible. Yet the Dual Monarchy possessed one potentially unifying cultural aspect that has long been critically neglected: the extensive repertoire of marches and patriotic music performed by the military bands of the Imperial and Royal Austro- Hungarian Army. This Militärmusik actively blended idioms representing the various nationalist musics from around the empire in an attempt to reflect and even celebrate its multinational makeup.

  • The Home Town As Mother
    Chapter 1 The Home Town as Mother Shmuel Yosef Czaczkes, later known as Agnon, was born on August 7, 1887 in the Jewish shtetl of Buczacz on the River Strypa, in the Tarnopol district of the province of Galicia, then part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The town had been founded in the fourteenth century by Polish noblemen, and Jews began to live there in the late-fifteenth or early-sixteenth century. From the tenth to the fourteenth century, Galicia had been part of the principality of Volhynia, which had been conquered by the Kievan king Vladimir Sviatoslav- ich1 and called Vladimeria or Lodomeria. In the thirteenth century Galicia was conquered by the marauding Mongols; in the fourteenth century it became part of the kingdom of Poland. Over the centuries, Galicia became more or less synonymous with Lodomeria.2 Jews immigrated to the kingdom of Poland-Lithuania, including Galicia, from Germany and other parts of Central Europe from late medieval and Early Modern times. They lived among the Poles and Ukrainians, while forming their own distinct communities. Americans are used to cities and towns having a single name. This was not the case in multicultural Eastern Europe, where several ethnic groups and cultures shared the same town, and each had its own name for it. A case in point was the capital of the Austrian province of East Galicia. The German speakers and the Jews called it Lemberg, the Poles called it Lwów and the Ukrainians Lviv.3 Austrian Lemberg was an important center of Jewish culture, home to several Yiddish and Hebrew periodicals and the celebrated University of Lemberg.4 Two major Jewish figures in international law studied there: Hersch Lauterpacht,5 who coined the term “war crimes” and was a member of the United Nations International Law Commission and a judge of the International Court of Justice, and Raphael Lemkin,6 who coined the term “genocide” and pushed for the United Nations to adopt the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide.7 1 Vladimir Sviatoslavich the Great (died 1015), medieval king of Kievan Rus.

  • Przemyśl As a Center of Ukrainian Language-Building (1815–1918)

According to the Encyclopedia of Ukraine, the population of Przemyśl developed between 1830 and 1910 in the following way: in 1830, out of 7,538 inhabitants 1,508 were Greek Catholics (and thus, as a rule, Ukrainians) —“a significantly larger num- ber than in most other centers in Galicia”2 — and, in fact, a significantly larger number than in most other city centers of the entire Ukrainian language area.3 The percentage of Greek Catholic city dwellers remained stable in the following dec- ades, while the population kept increasing: 1880 — 22,000 (43.6 percent Roman Catholics, 34.5 percent Jews, 21.4 percent Greek Catholics); 1900 — 46,300 (46.0 percent Roman Catholics, 30.6 percent Jews, 22.5 percent Greek Catholics); 1910 — 54,700 (46.7 percent Roman Catholics, 29.5 percent Jews, and 22.5 percent Greek Catholics).4 During the first decades of the 19th century, the Ukrainian nation- and lan- guage-building process significantly lagged behind the Polish one.

  • Eastern Europe - Historical Glossary
    EASTERN EUROPE - HISTORICAL GLOSSARY Large numbers of people now living in western Europe, north and south America, South Africa and Australia are from families that originated in eastern Europe. As immigrants, often during the late 19th century, their origin will have been classified by immigration officials and census takers according to the governing power of the European territory from which they had departed. Thus many were categorised as Russian, Austrian or German who actually came from provinces within those empires which had cultures and long histories as nations in their own right. In the modern world, apart from Poland and Lithuania, most of these have become largely unknown and might include Livonia, Courland, Galicia, Lodomeria, Volhynia, Bukovina, Banat, Transylvania, Walachia, Moldavia and Bessarabia. During the second half of the 20th century, the area known as "Eastern Europe" largely comprised the countries to the immediate west of the Soviet Union (Russia), with communist governments imposed or influenced by Russia, following occupation by the Russian "Red Army" during the process of defeating the previous military occupation of the German army in 1944-45. Many of these countries had experienced a short period of independence (1918-1939) between the two World Wars, but before 1918 most of the territory had been within the three empires of Russia, Austria-Hungary and Ottoman Turkey. The Ottoman empire had expanded from Turkey into Europe during the 14th-15th centuries and retained control over some territories until 1918. The commonwealth of Poland and Lithuania was established in the 16th century and for two centuries ruled over the territories north of Hungary, while the Ottoman empire ruled over those to the south, but between 1721-1795 the Russian empire took control of the Baltic states and eastern Poland and during a similar period Austria-Hungary took control of southern Poland and the northern and western territories of the Ottoman empire.

In the former Austria-Hungary there was among the several countries forming it one — the vastest of all the monarchy's countries with 78,000 square km and 8 millions of population Her official name was. Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria with the Grand-Duchy of Cracow and the Principalities of Auschwitz and Zator. After the dlbacle of Austria-Hungary in the Autumn of 1918 the population of the Grand-Duchy of Cracow and of the Principalities Auschwitz and Zator, viz. the Western Part of the country specified above, attached themselves to the revived Polish State. The population of the real Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria, viz. the Eastern Part of the country specified above, formed an independent Western Ukrainian Republic, realizing such their right of self-determination. The conquering Allied Powers have laid down as their most important rule for the Reconstruction of Europe after the Great War the principle of Self-Determination of Nations. Yet this principle has, alas! not been applied to the Western Ukrainian (Eastern Galician) Population. Although the latter have unequivocally proved their will to lead an independent political life, the sympathies of the Allied and Associated Powers have been exclusively in favour of the Poles in the nine month defensive war (November 1918 till July 1919) the Western Ukrainian Republic was carrying on against the Poles.

  • Reading the History of Bastion Castles in Galicia (Eastern Europe) Using the Friedrich Von Mieg Map
    This paper is part of the Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Defence Sites: Heritage and Future (DSHF 2016) www.witconferences.com Reading the history of bastion castles in Galicia (Eastern Europe) using the Friedrich von Mieg map O. Tikhonova Faculty of Architecture, Lisbon Technical University, Portugal Abstract The purpose of this research is to show the usefulness of cartographic materials in research, namely cadaster maps; in particular for studying landscape architecture, settlements planning, and localization of military objects on the territory. Primary attention in this paper is paid to Map of the Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria as a part of cadaster maps made in the First Military Survey in 1763–1787 by Officer Friedrich von Mieg. The maps are serviceable for studying military architecture because the author, Friedrich von Mieg, gave particular attention to locating military objects during the map’s creation. The author of the research used this map to establish the position of bastion castles and their quantity in the territory of Galicia (the historical and geographic region in Eastern Europe). The nucleus of historical Galicia lies within the modern parts of Poland (Lesser Voivodeship, Subcarpathian Voivodeship, and Silesian Voivodeship) and western part of Ukraine (Lviv, Ternopil and Ivano-Frankivsk region). At the end, the researcher has defined 39 bastion castles on the territory understudying. Besides, the scholar has found 40 unspecified castles that need further investigation because it was hard to identify exactly their type using the map. These results will help the author undertake deeper research about the history and fate of these castles.
