Thanks to historical and cultural integrity, the graveyards in Samogitia constitute coherent historical and cultural sphere. For this reason, they can be regarded as broadly understood historical buildings. Such places belonged to the heritage of Lithuanian and Polish nations. The article contains detailed issues such as: the arrangement of historical graveyards on Samogitia land, the location of the graveyards, the characteristics and description of graves, their typology and esthetics, surnames, professional and social status of the buried people, inscriptions on tombstones. The paper also presents the condition of graves and graveyards and essential conservations. The article was based on the field research carried out between 2006-2013.

BORDERLAND - A SPACE OF CHOICE

The term 'borderland' refers to a natural area comprising many languages, ethnoses and cultures. The borderland of the former Republic of Poland was situated between civilizations and confessions, and its rhythm was defined by the West and the East. The geographical dimension of borderlands should be regarded as spatial; this refers to the ground as well as to the history of colonization. From a social point of view, borderlands (ethnic, for example) do not feature clearly distinguished spatial borders. Therefore, Borderlands can be considered as 'situational'. The condition of the inhabitants of Borderlands is characteristic of Jaroslaw Iwaszkiewicz's prose. It makes him transfer the world of confined esthetics into the world of Mediterranean Europe by considering the lost space as an experience of both memory and esthetics. As an artist, Iwaszkiewicz situates himself in Borderlands. He is considered 'Ukrainian' as well as cosmopolitan. These concepts should be accompanied by the most essential term 'Borderlines', from which many other categories originate. It provides the appropriate tools with which to examine Iwaszkiewicz's work and to describe the writer's sensitivity, esthetics, and perception of the world, which come from a 'crossing of traditions'.

The Leopolis Collection (at the Museum of Independence) constitutes a valuable source of knowledge on the past of Lviv and its surroundings as well as the fate of the Polish people living there. Created in 1992 as a result of the efforts of borderland circles, its contribution is used for research by museum specialists, professional historians and researchers of the borderlands past. The artefacts, archival materials and publications collected there are made use of for preparing exhibitions, scholarly articles and monographs. These valuable collections in relation to exhibitions are still awaiting a systematic study. Research undertaken so far has borne fruit in the form of valuable monographs and studies, but there are many valuable materials still waiting to be unearthed. For the purposes of accessing the museum materials the creation of a Leopolis Collection catalogue is necessary so that its contents can be more broadly made use of – both in historical research and that pertaining to museum-based studies.

The article proposes reading borderland literature with the use of postcolonial criticism. Poland is often called the coloniser who has been colonized. The author should add, that there are two meanings of this statement. Firstly, Poland acted like a coloniser in Eastern Territory (the time of the so-called 1st Republic of Poland and that can be classified as 'normal' behaviour). Secondly, Poland acted this way in the time of Partition, when it was colonized by neighbouring superpowers. This causes a special kind of complications and experiences which are written in literature, personal and historical documents. Applying postcolonial criticism to read borderline literature means: 1. Taking into consideration borderland, local (not only metropolitan) discourses, or in other words, taking into consideration historical and political threads 2. Understanding stereotypes of the Other/the Stranger in a different way. 3. Exposing rhetorical rules and the aims of 'unilanguage'. 4. Taking into consideration (and to understand in a special way) the phenomenon of space, 5. The fantasmatic type of characters and situations in texts, and also: 6. Literary escalation of borderland experience. These theses are shown by means of a short analysis.

The article presents an analysis of the topos of the province in Polish and German literature after 1989. In spite of different historical and literary sources, the turning point of the fall of the Berlin wall marks the beginning of the surprising career of this literary figure which, according to the authoress, is connected to the postcolonial profile of the literatures after the breakthrough. The topos of province in literature studies and literary criticism has different functions: as an affirmation and source of national identity (the Polish 'borderland' and German West Prussia) and a test of its anti-community, postmodern character (in Stasiuk and Tokarczuk's works) and a tint of Western German quasi-identity. The proposed model for the understanding of the texts of the region is focused around the person of the narrator and the categories of the (anthropological) point of view.

Przez termin „pogranicze” autor rozumie zjawisko społeczne, w ramach którego ludzie z obu stron lub z kilku stron różnie zresztą rozumianych granic wchodzą ze sobą w kontakt. Granica jako linia wykreślona na mapie i wytyczona w przestrzeni nie jest konieczna dla istnienia pogranicza. Z kolei nawet w wypadku formalnie wytyczonej granicy można dokładać wysiłków dla likwidacji sytuacji pogranicza. Komunizm starał się, by umocniona i dobrze strzeżona granica nie dopuszczała do kontaktów ludzi w obszarze jej bliskim. Na obszarach pogranicza tworzyła się kultura synkretyczna – choć pytanie oczywiście w jakim stopniu i w jakich dziedzinach życia. O niektórych ludziach można mówić jako o ludziach pogranicza. Częste w dziejach dyskusje o przynależności ludzi zapamiętanych przez historię jako wielcy dotyczą często ludzi z pogranicza. Obszary pogranicza nieraz bywają terenami konfl iktów, zaś ludzie tam żyjący bądź z takich terenów wywodzący się maja nieraz ciężki los. Jednocześnie w wielu wypadkach kształtowali się jako ludzie twórczy i oryginalni.

By borderlands, the author means social phenomena where people from both sides of the variously understood boundary come into contact with each other. Boundary as a line dividing space is not necessary for the borderland to exist. In the case of a formal boundary, very oft en attempts were made to impede the emergence of borderlands. Such was the case during communism with its fortifi ed and guarded border which prevented people on both sides to get into contact with one another. In borderlands, culture had a syncretic nature – although we need to ask how and in what aspects of life. We sometimes refer to some of its inhabitants as people of the borderlands. Th e oft en lead discussions about belonging of certain historical fi gures stems from the fact that they were oft en such people. At the same time borderlands sometimes are the terrains of confl icts, and people who live there suff er for it.
