The Russian and Polish historical sciences focus closely on studying the ways that the Polish diaspora emerged and evolved outside its traditional places of residence. Polish communities actively formed as the government had implemented its punitive policies since the late 13 th century. One of the areas settled by many natives of Poland was Siberia. While historiography traditionally devotes much attention to the study of the Polish community in the second half of the 19th century, there are few works dealing with the community’s early beginnings in various Siberian provinces. As a result the article basing on a variety of archival data has achieved the goal of defining essential features found in the Siberia Polish diaspora in the pre-reform period before the 1850s ‘Great Reforms’.

The fact that the Pole and above all the exiled ones made a great contribution to the XIX – early XX century development in Siberia has been pointed out more than once in the historical literature. At the same time this theme appears to be more studied concerning Eastern Siberia, obviously due to the fact that such well-known scientists of Polish origin as B. Pilsudsky, Yan Chersky, B. Dybovsky, V. Seroshevsky and others worked in Eastern Siberia. Having analyzed the materials of regional, that is of Western Siberia encyclopedias and dictionaries published in recent years the author of the article has made up a list of cultural and academic figures of Polish origin who lived (either permanently or on exile) or visited Western Siberia with expeditions in XIX – early XX centuries. All in all the materials of 14 encyclopedias and reference books have been studied. There are 54 persons in the list. Every one of them made contribution to the development of science and culture of Western Siberia. The list comprises prominent scientists (Yan Chersky, professors S. Zalessky, P. Burzhinsky, etc.), painters (M. Vrubel, K. Zelenevsky, etc.), architects (V. Orzheshko, I. Nosovich, etc.), writers and poets (G. Zelinsky, A. Yanushkevich, etc.), medical men ( F. Orzheshko, V. Pirussky, etc.), prominent officials who made for the development of culture and medicine in the region (Artsimovich, Despot-Zenovich, Kublitsky-Piottukh, etc.). The article shows the correlation of the exiled, the exiled descendants and the people who voluntary came to Siberia or were here in service. It is clear that the given list is not exhaustive, nevertheless it allows to speak about the contribution of the Pole to various branches of science and culture in Western Siberia, and at the same time aims investigators at further study of the theme.

The article concerns individual and collective experiences of Poles deported to Siberia in the second half of the 19th century. It is based on the 19th century memoirs and Polish and Russian accounts from the 19th and 20th century. An integral part of the article is the problem of the myth of Siberia, and its picture of martyrdom of which perpetuated by the 19th century literature, romantic poetry, and memoirs, including the works of Agaton Giller’s. A noticeable role in the making of the myth of Siberia played the works of Zygmunt Librowicz’s (Poles in Siberia, Cracow 1884) and Michal Janik’s (History of Poles in Siberia, Cracow 1928), among others. The article mentions numerous factors creating the myth of Siberia, including the system of repressions against the deportees, the myth of the sentenced to katorga terms, the myths concerning the attitude of Russian administration and civilians to the deportees, the cooperation between Polish and Russian exiled revolutionaries and marriages between the deportees and local Siberian women.
