Anonimous article, edited by Tomasz Pudlocki, is about the role of the Polish woman in the family as well as among the members of the society, seen through the reader’s eyes. It was published in 1892 in local weekly „Kolomyja Newspapers”, one of the most important in the East Galician province of the epoch. It is a good example of mental thinking on women’s question by the inhabitants of Austro-Hungary Empire far away from Vienna. The text is introduced by the Preface, explaining the role of Kolomyja in the 2nd half of 19th century as well as the history of the weekly and local women’s movement.

The article by Apolinary Garlicki, a history and geography teacher from Przemyśl, and later a member of parliament during the Second Polish Republic, was published in installments right before the outbreak of the First World War in the local periodical “Ziemia Przemyska”. A lecture which was an incentive to write that article had been delivered by Garlicki on 17 May 1914 at the city hall in Przemyśl during the meeting of the Adam Mickiewicz Folk University. The essay is written from the point of view of a historiosopher. One can see here a reflection on the books that Garlicki read. They were not only the works by Adam Smith, from which he started his discussion, but also books by the theoreticians of progressive education, a trend in pedagogy at the turn of the 20th century, focusing largely on the significance of the environment in the practical upbringing of children and youth. The author leads the reader through various historical periods and makes references to many contemporary events – the social policy of the USA, the increasing significance of Japan, the Balkan wars etc. Garlicki discusses with ease not only the meanders of history but also the latest issues in sociology, psychology, economy, political science, making no attempts to hide his fascination with Darwinism and presenting its results in the growing nationalism and competition between nations in the early 20th century. The lecture helped Garlicki to write two books on the then fashionable theme of eugenics: Co to jest eugenika? [What is eugenics?] (1917) and Zagadnienia biologiczne-społeczne [Biological and social issues] (1924).

Rev. Czyżewicki’s source was published in installments in the “Wiadomości Miejskie” (The Town News) periodical which came out in Przemyśl in the years 1921-1923. It shows tendencies dominating in Polish schools after the First World War: attempts to educate young people through organizing trips to the places connected with Polish material culture, religion and industry, and also enhancing patriotic feelings through teaching love for the monuments of the past and singing patriotic songs. It is also a so-far unused source for local history, showing the significance of Krosno going beyond the town and its region. What is more, The text shows the postwar relations of the Krosno residents with Przemyśl and Kraków – despite the destruction caused by the Great War, which considerably affected the people of Galicia, the Krosno region was an attractive place for tourists from other areas.
