This book was released on 2022-11-11 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Treaty of Versailles to the 2018 centenary and beyond, the history of the First World War has been continually written and rewritten, studied and contested, producing a rich historiography shaped by the social and cultural circumstances of its creation. Writing the Great War provides a groundbreaking survey of this vast body of work, assembling contributions on a variety of national and regional historiographies from some of the most prominent scholars in the field. By analyzing perceptions of the war in contexts ranging from Nazi Germany to India’s struggle for independence, this is an illuminating collective study of the complex interplay of memory and history.
Download or read book In the Shadow of the Great War written by Jochen Böhler and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2021-01-10 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether victorious or not, Central European states faced fundamental challenges after the First World War as they struggled to contain ongoing violence and forge peaceful societies. This collection explores the various forms of violence these nations confronted during this period, which effectively transformed the region into a laboratory for state-building. Employing a bottom-up approach to understanding everyday life, these studies trace the contours of individual and mass violence in the interwar era while illuminating their effects upon politics, intellectual developments, and the arts.
Download or read book A New Europe 1918 1923 written by Bartosz Dziewanowski-Stefańczyk and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-03-03 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This set of essays introduces readers to new historical research on the creation of the new order in East-Central Europe in the period immediately following 1918. The book offers insights into the political, diplomatic, military, economic and cultural conditions out of which the New Europe was born. Experts from various countries take into account three perspectives. They give equal attention to both the Western and Eastern fronts; they recognise that on 11 November 1918, the War ended only on the Western front and violence continued in multiple forms over the next five years; and they show how state-building after 1918 in Central and Eastern Europe was marked by a mixture of innovation and instability. Thus, the volume focuses on three kinds of narratives: those related to conflicts and violence, those related to the recasting of civil life in new structures and institutions, and those related to remembrance and representations of these years in the public sphere. Taking a step towards writing a fully European history of the Great War and its aftermath, the volume offers an original approach to this decisive period in 20th-century European history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesse Kauffman explains why Germany’s ambitious attempt at nation-building in Poland during WWI failed.

Download or read book Postwar Continuity and New Challenges in Central Europe 1918 1923 written by Tomasz Pudłocki and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-30 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a multi-layered analysis of the situation in Central Europe after the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The new geopolitics emerging from the Versailles order, and at the same time ongoing fights for borders, considerable war damage, social and economic problems and replacement of administrative staff as well as leaders, all contributed to the fact that unlike Western Europe, Central Europe faced challenges and dilemmas on an unprecedented scale. The editors of this book have invited authors from over a dozen academic institutions to answer the question of to what extent the solutions applied in the Habsburg Monarchy were still practiced in the newly created nation states, and to what extent these new political organisms went their own ways. It offers a closer look at Central Europe with its multiple problems typical of that region after 1918 (organizing the post-imperial space, a new political discourse and attempts to create new national memories, the role of national minorities, solving social problems, and verbal and physical violence expressed in public space). Particular chapters concern post-1918 Central Europe on the local, state and international levels, providing a comprehensive view of this sub-region between 1918 and 1923.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Helena Tarnowicz-Barlicka urodzila się w Warszawie w 1894 r. Byla jednym z ośmiorga dzieci w dużej, tradycyjnej polskiej rodzinie z wyższej klasy średniej. Wybuch pierwszej wojny światowej w 1914 r. zastal rodzinę w Moskwie, skąd - wskutek wojennej zawieruchy i wybuchu rewolucji październikowej - powrót do ojczyzny nie byl dla nich możliwy aż do końca 1918 r. Helena niestrudzenie realizowala swoje marzenie o zdobyciu zawodu lekarza. Studia rozpoczęla w Moskwie, w 1917 roku, ale ukończyla je dopiero w 1925 roku. Najważniejszą osobą w jej życiu byl Norbert Barlicki, prawnik i polityk Polskiej Partii Socjalistycznej (PPS), rozstrzelany przez Niemców w czasie II wojny światowej . Świadectwo autorstwa Heleny jest krótkie, ale przejmujące, mówi samo za siebie. Daje nam wgląd w charakter i sposób myślenia Norberta Barlickiego, ale jeszcze bardziej wgląd w to, jak niezwyklą osobą byla sama Helena. Oprawa miękka, ilustrowana, 52 strony, w języku angielskim, z faksymile oryginalnego maszynopisu w języku polskim.
Download or read book The Sons of Scripture written by Mikhail Kizilov and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2015-07-24 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on the variety of archival sources in the host of European and Oriental languages, the book focuses on the history, ethnography, and convoluted ethnic identity of the Polish-Lithuanian Karaites. The vanishing community of the Karaites, a non-Talmudic Turkic-speaking Jewish minority that had been living in Eastern Europe since the late Middle Ages, developed a unique ethnographic culture and religious tradition. The book offers the first comprehensive study of the dramatic history of the Polish-Lithuanian Karaite community in the twentieth century. Especially important is the analysis of the dejudaization (or Turkicization) of the community that saved the Karaites from horrors of the Holocaust.

Download or read book Rewolucja written by Robert E. Blobaum and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2016-11-01 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The revolution of 1905 in the Russian-ruled Kingdom of Poland marked the consolidation of major new influences on the political scene. As he examines the emergence of a mass political culture in Poland, Robert E. Blobaum offers the first history in any Western language of this watershed period. Drawing on extensive archival research to explore the history of Poland's revolutionary upheavals, Blobaum departs from traditional interpretations of these events as peripheral to an essentially Russian movement that reached a climax in the Russian Revolution of 1917. He demonstrates that, although Polish independence was not formally recognized until after World War I, the social and political conditions necessary for nationhood were established in the years around 1905.

Download or read book Polish Jewish Literature in the Interwar Years written by Eugenia Prokop-Janiec and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2003-04-01 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Foremost among a recent wave of Polish books on Jewish issues, this groundbreaking work rectifies long-held misconceptions about Polish Jewish writers. Popular notion has it that Polish Jewish writers, unlike their counterparts in Western. Northern, and Central Europe, wrote solely in Yiddish or Hebrew. Yet between the two world wars Poland produced an elite group of assimilated Jews who wrote exclusively in Polish. Theirs was not an easy lot. Torn between love of Poland and its literature and their own Jewish identity, they straddled a fine line between two cultural worlds-at once advocating acculturation while prey to virulent anti-Semitism. This pioneering, award-winning volume examines the emergence and development of these writers, their personal plight, and the profound effect they had upon Polish letters and poetry. Meticulously researched, it explores the role of language as a bridge, attitudes toward Polish writing, impact of the ghetto, and the transformation of Polish into a force for its Jewish populace. Finally, it pays homage to fine literary voices silenced by the Holocaust.
Download or read book Dynamics of Uncertainty Unrest and Fragility in Europe written by Monika Banaś and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-12-02 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines some of the most pressing issues affecting contemporary societies in Europe in the 2020s, namely uncertainty, unrest and the fragility of individuals and groups. Monika Banaś, Vesa Puuronen and their contributors analyse a selection of challenges affecting the present and near future of Europe and European societies. They reflect on processes and events that have a pivotal impact on individual and collective life, for example, how the Russian invasion of Ukraine has affected reformulation or revision of such concepts as security, uncertainty, independence, freedom, democracy and democratic values as well as nation and nationalism. The volume discusses phenomena such as the migration and integration of refugees, media narratives on the Russian–Ukrainian war, political campaign rhetoric concerning the war, institutional engagement in fostering civil and inclusive societies, strategies of young people to cope with uncertainty in times of socio-economic challenges. The book offers a valuable reference for scholars and students of European societies studying a broad scope of courses in sociology, political culture, intercultural communication, intercultural and international relations, along with political science. It will also be of interest to experts and practitioners of the NGO sector active in supporting vulnerable individuals, communities and societies.
