Anti-Polonism: Encyclopedia - Anti-Polonism

Anti-Polonism (alternatively spelled antipolonism; also, Polonophobia) is a term used to collectively describe a broad spectrum of hostile sentiments toward Poles. While the term is used in Polish (antypolonizm), its use in English has been limited. The term was used frequently in 19th century Poland to describe the anti-Polish policies of German-Prussian statesman Otto von Bismarck[citation needed]. The English derivation does not appear in major English dictionaries, and according to Lex ...

The historic counterpart of anti-Polonism is polakożerstwo (in English - the devouring of Poles) — a term used in 19th century to describe the anti-Polish politics of Otto von Bismarck.

Anti-Polonism: Encyclopedia - Armenian quote

The Armenian quote is a paragraph allegedly included in a speech by Adolf Hitler to Wehrmacht commanders at his Obersalzberg home on August 22, 1939, a week before the German invasion of Poland. The authenticity of the quote has been disputed. The key area of contention regarding the "Armenian quote" is its last sentence, which contains a reference to the Armenian genocide, an episode during World War I in the Ottoman Empire, during which, according to many estimates, approximately 1.5 million ethnic Armenians were killed. The authent ...

Anti-Polonism: Encyclopedia II - History of Poland 1939–1945 - German and Soviet Invasion

The Polish armed forces resisted the German invasion, but their strategic position was hopeless since Poland was surrounded on three sides by Germany and German-controlled Czechoslovakia. It was in Poland that the Germans first used the tactics of Blitzkrieg ("lightning war"): rapid advance of Panzer (armored) divisions, dive bombing to break up troop concentrations, and aerial bombing of undefended cities to sap civilian morale. The Polish Army and Air Force had little modern equipment to match the onslaught. German forces wer ...

Anti-Polonism: Encyclopedia II - Germanisation - Historical Germanisation

In wider sense, Germanisation refers to the process of acculturation of Slavic speakers and Baltic speakers, populating, after conquests or by cultural contact in the early dark ages, areas of the modern eastern Germany to the line of Elbe. The process was performed by elimination of the leading group and pushing most of Slavic speakers into status of serfs yet in Middle Ages. In East Prussia, extermination, enslavment and forced resettlements of the Prussians by Teutonic Order and Prussian state, especially after the 1525 rebellion, but als ...

Anti-Polonism: Encyclopedia II - History of Poland 1989–present - Roundtable Talks and Elections

The government's inability to forestall Poland's economic decline led to waves of strikes across the country in April, May and August 1988. In an attempt to take control of the situation, the government gave de facto recognition to Solidarity, and Interior Minister Kiszczak began talks with Lech Wałęsa on August 31. These talks broke down in October, but a new series of negotiations, the "round-table" talks, began in February 1989. These talks produced an agreement in April for partly-open National Assembly elections. The June elect ...

Anti-Polonism: Encyclopedia II - Massacres of Poles in Volhynia - History

Volhyn was the main ethnically Ukrainian region that during the Interbellum was under Polish administration. After World War I, when Poland regained independence, the Polish government had strongly supported the idea of an independent Ukraine (Ukrainian People's Republic). At the end of the Polish-Soviet War of 1919-1921, under the Peace of Riga accords, overt Polish support for Ukraine's independence was ruled out. Poland initially promised local autonomy to her predominantly Ukrainian-populated territories. With, however, the demise of Jó ...

Anti-Polonism: Encyclopedia II - Polonization - Second Polish Republic

During the times of Second Polish Republic, when Poland regained territories of Western Belarus, Western Ukraine and the Wilno region, linguistic assimilation was considered as a major factor of unifying the state by National Democrats. For example, Stanisław Grabski, Polish Minister for Religion and Public Education in 1923-1926 wrote that "Poland may be preserved only as the state of Polish people. If it were a state of Poles, Jews, Germans, Rusyns, Belarusians, Lithuanians, Russians, it would lose its independence again." Some oth ...

Anti-Polonism: Encyclopedia II - Außerordentliche Befriedungsaktion - History

The anti-Polish campaign was planned by Hans Frank, the commander of the General Government. The mass murder of Polish leaders, politicians, artists, intelligentsia and people suspected of anti-Nazi activity was seen as a pre-emptive measure to keep the Polish resistance scattered and prevent the Poles from revolting during the planned German invasion of France. Prior to the action, in late 1939 and early 1940, most of the Polish university professors, intellectuals, writers, politicians, teachers and other members of the elite of the ...

Anti-Polonism: Encyclopedia II - Russification - History

One of the examples of Russification was replacement of the Polish language by Russian in areas of Poland-Lithuania after the Partitions of Poland. It intensified after the 1831 uprising and, in particular, after the January Uprising of 1863: in 1864 Polish, Belarusian and Lithuanian languages were banned in public places; in the 1880s Polish was banned in schools and offices of the Congress Kingdom. A similar development was in Lithuania: its Governor General Mikhail Muravyov instituted a complete ban on the Latin and Gothic scripts ...

As the Soviets advanced through Poland in late 1944 the German administration collapsed. The Communist-controlled Committee of National Liberation (PKWN, Polski Komitet Wyzwolenia Narodowego), headed by Bolesław Bierut, was installed by the Soviet Union in Lublin, the first major Polish city to be liberated, in July, and began to take over the administration of the country as the Germans retreated. The government in exile in London had only one card to play, the forces of the AK. This was why the government in exile was determined th ...
