Eaton 1 Abstract Exclave: Politics, Ideology, and Everyday Life in Königsberg-Kaliningrad, 1928-1948 by Nicole M. Eaton Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Yuri Slezkine, Chair “Exclave: Politics, Ideology, and Everyday Life in Königsberg-Kaliningrad, 1928-1948,” looks at the history of one city in both Hitler’s Germany and Stalin’s Soviet Russia, follow- ing the transformation of Königsberg from an East Prussian city into a Nazi German city, its destruction in the war, and its postwar rebirth as the Soviet Russian city of Kaliningrad. The city is peculiar in the history of Europe as a double exclave, first separated from Germany by the Polish Corridor, later separated from the mainland of Soviet Russia. The dissertation analyzes the ways in which each regime tried to transform the city and its inhabitants, fo- cusing on Nazi and Soviet attempts to reconfigure urban space (the physical and symbolic landscape of the city, its public areas, markets, streets, and buildings); refashion the body (through work, leisure, nutrition, and healthcare); and reconstitute the mind (through vari- ous forms of education and propaganda). -
Darius PETKŪNAS – the Sources of the 1545 Old Prussian Language
THE SOURCES OF THE 1545 OLD PRUSSIAN LANGUAGE CATECHISMS Darius Petkūnas Abstract The Teutonic Order in Prussia recognised and acknowledged its responsibility to catechise both the German-speaking colonists and the native population. The Reformation made no radical changes to these requirements, but gave them serious attention. During the 1540s to the 1560s, several Catechisms for the non-German subjects of the Duke of Prussia were pre- pared and published in Königsberg, including three in the Old Prussian language. The editor 189 of the first and second Old Prussian-language Catechisms published bilingual books, with the German Catechism on the left-hand page, and the same text on the right-hand page in the Old Prussian language. Reinhold Trautmann established that the source of the Decalogue in these books was Luther’s 1531 Small Catechism. However, he had difficulties confirming the sources of the remaining four parts of the Catechism, since he found a number of words and phrases which could not be identified as coming from Luther’s Catechisms. The article elaborates on Trautmann’s thesis that the source of the German Decalogue is Luther’s 1531 Enchiridion. In addition, it argues that the sources of the remaining parts of the Catechism were German-lan- guage catechetical and liturgical texts that were circulating in Prussia at that time. KEY WORDS: Duchy of Prussia, catechisation, Old Prussian language, Martin Luther. ANOTACIJA Vokiečių ordinas Prūsijoje suvokė ir pripažino savo pareigą katechizuoti tiek vokiečiakalbius ko- lonistus, tiek ir vietinius gyventojus. Reformacija neturėjo esminės įtakos šiems reikalavimams atsirasti, bet sustiprino jiems teikiamą dėmesį. -
The 13Th-Century Conquest of Prussia Reconsidered
ACTA HI STO RI CA UNIVERSITATIS KLAIPEDENSIS THE 13TH-CENTURY CONQUEST OF PRUSSIA RECONSIDERED DOBROSIELSKA, Alicja. Opór, oportunizm, współpraca. Prusowie wobec zakonu krzyżac kiego w dobie podboju (Monumentą Literaria Prussiae, Seria C: Monografie, nr. 7). Olsztyn: Towarzystwo Naukowe Pruthenia, 2017. - 240 s. ISBN 978-83-934214-9-7 Marius Ščavinskas Klaipėda University Nineteenth and 20th-century historiography about the conQuest of Prussia in the 13th century by the Teutonic Order, based on the different circumstances forming the political, cultural and historical memory developing in different historical epochs and in a varied geographical space, formed a rather clear point of view that the conQuest of Prussia was the expansion of Western Christianity, breaking through in the form of crusades, and interrupting the natural development of the West Balts (mainly Old Prussians), which caused the disappearance of the Old Prussians. There is no doubt that, like any other forms of war, the conQuest naturally triggered change, both in the society of the conQuered and of the conQuerors. For a longtime, the conQuest of the Old Prussians was researched by looking only at the military- political aspects: battles, a discussion of strategy and tactics, the visualisation of the cartography of battles, and the location of Old Prussian castles, highlighting the political circumstances of the arrival of the Teutonic Order in Prussia, descriptions of the ideological attitudes of the Crusades, and descriptions of the hostilities. As well as the military-political aspects, researchers paid significant attention to the pre-Christian order of Old Prussian society, its religion and mythology, confronting the 'peaceful', 'not damaged by civilisation' Old Prussian culture with the aggressive attitude of the Teutonic Order and the supporters of Christian European culture, and in this way, through invisible ties, relating the conQuest of Prussia in the 13th century to events of the 19th and 20th centuries. -
The Archaeology of the Prussian Crusade
Downloaded by [University of Wisconsin - Madison] at 05:00 18 January 2017 THE ARCHAEOLOGY OF THE PRUSSIAN CRUSADE The Archaeology of the Prussian Crusade explores the archaeology and material culture of the Crusade against the Prussian tribes in the thirteenth century, and the subsequent society created by the Teutonic Order that lasted into the six- teenth century. It provides the first synthesis of the material culture of a unique crusading society created in the south-eastern Baltic region over the course of the thirteenth century. It encompasses the full range of archaeological data, from standing buildings through to artefacts and ecofacts, integrated with writ- ten and artistic sources. The work is sub-divided into broadly chronological themes, beginning with a historical outline, exploring the settlements, castles, towns and landscapes of the Teutonic Order’s theocratic state and concluding with the role of the reconstructed and ruined monuments of medieval Prussia in the modern world in the context of modern Polish culture. This is the first work on the archaeology of medieval Prussia in any lan- guage, and is intended as a comprehensive introduction to a period and area of growing interest. This book represents an important contribution to promot- ing international awareness of the cultural heritage of the Baltic region, which has been rapidly increasing over the last few decades. Aleksander Pluskowski is a lecturer in Medieval Archaeology at the University of Reading. Downloaded by [University of Wisconsin - Madison] at 05:00 -

The Grunwald Trail
n the Grunwald fi elds thousands of soldiers stand opposite each other. Hidden below the protec- tive shield of their armour, under AN INVITATION Obanners waving in the wind, they hold for an excursion along long lances. Horses impatiently tear their bridles and rattle their hooves. Soon the the Grunwald Trail iron regiments will pounce at each other, to clash in a deadly battle And so it hap- pens every year, at the same site knights from almost the whole of Europe meet, reconstructing events which happened over six hundred years ago. It is here, on the fi elds between Grunwald, Stębark and Łodwigowo, where one of the biggest battles of Medieval Europe took place on July . The Polish and Lithuanian- Russian army, led by king Władysław Jagiełło, crushed the forces of the Teutonic Knights. On the battlefi eld, knights of the order were killed, together with their chief – the great Master Ulrich von Jungingen. The Battle of Grunwald, a triumph of Polish and Lithuanian weapons, had become the symbol of power of the common monarchy. When fortune abandoned Poland and the country was torn apart by the invaders, reminiscence of the battle became the inspiration for generations remembering the past glory and the fi ght for national independence. Even now this date is known to almost every Pole, and the annual re- enactment of the battle enjoys great popularity and attracts thousands of spectators. In Stębark not only the museum and the battlefi eld are worth visiting but it is also worthwhile heading towards other places related to the great battle with the Teutonic Knights order. -

Creative Commons License Dances with Westerns in Poland’s Borderlands 1 Dances with Westerns in Poland’s Borderlands Piotr Skurowski 1 Parallel to other European countries, the American West has always stirred a great fascination in the Polish public. An important part of the Polish context which seems responsible for that fascination was the role played in Polish history by the eastern borderlands (Kresy) whose place in the Polish imaginary seems to parallel, in some important aspects, the mythmaking role played by the Wild West in America. The mythic appeal of the Kresy owes a lot to one of the key Polish mythmakers, the novelist Henryk Sienkiewicz whose famous Trilogy strongly defined the Polish imaginary concerning the history of the Kresy for generations to come. In Sienkiewicz’s mythic vision, the Ukrainian steppes constituted a scenic backdrop for a heroic struggle of the righteous and chivalric Poles against the invasions of barbarian hordes from the East, including the Cossacks, Turks and Tartars. -

Faustyn II (1926-1929) – Kaszubskie Korzenie Władcy Haitańskiej Wyspy (8)
Dariusz Szymikowski Faustyn II (1926-1929) – kaszubskie korzenie władcy haitańskiej wyspy (8) O ojcu (i jego rodzeństwie) oraz dziadkach Faustyna Wiemy już, że ojciec Faustyna, Łukasz Wirkus, urodził się we wsi Szumlin (zob. część 6). Oczekiwałem, że w akcie chrztu znajdę informacje o rodzicach Łukasza. Przystępując do kwerendy dysponowałem drzewem genealogicznym dziadka Faustyna, Błażeja Wirkusa, które znajduje się na stronie www.ancestry.com. Drzewo genealogiczne Błażeja Wirkusa (Źródło: http://records.ancestry.com/blaza_wirkus_records.ashx?pid=78156766) Najpierw należało jednak ustalić przynależność parafialną Szumlina, a potem znaleźć księgi metrykalne i sprawdzić, czy najczęściej pojawiająca się w źródłach i opracowaniach data narodzin Łukasza Wirkusa (1875 r.), znajdzie potwierdzenie w jego akcie chrztu. Wykorzystując Skorowidz Królestwa Polskiego (t. 2, oprac. I. Zinberg, Warszawa 1877) ustaliłem, że wspomniana wioska należała do parafii Joniec. Natomiast, jeśli chodzi o administrację świecką, to Szumlin znajdował się w powiecie płońskim, a ten z kolei wchodził wówczas (tj. w czasie narodzin Łukasza Wirkusa) w skład guberni płockiej (od 1893 r. w guberni warszawskiej). Powiat płoński na początku XX w. (już w granicach guberni warszawskiej) (Źródło: Atlas geograficzny ilustrowany Królestwa Polskiego, red. J.M. Bazewicz, Warszawa 1907) Szczęśliwie okazało się, że część ksiąg metrykalnych z tej parafii jest już zindeksowana. Natrafiłem tam na nazwisko Wirkus (zob. http://www.geneteka.genealodzy.pl/index.php?rid=1174&from_date=&to_date=&search_last name=Wirkus&search_lastname2=&rpp1=0&bdm=&w=07mz&op=gt&lang=pol). Według podanych informacji w związek małżeński wstępowały w parafii Joniec dwie osoby (Julianna i Helena Zofia), które łączyło – oprócz nazwiska rodowego – także podobne nazwiska panieńskie ich matek: Myszka i Myszkowska. -
