This publication aims to present the image of the Greater Poland Uprising (1918–1919) in the French and British daily press, as well as a comparison of both perspectives. The main hypothesis of the article assumes that the manner of showing events in France and Great Britain was different, which resulted from various sources of information and the different positions of both governments regarding the Polish issue, understood as an element of their policy towards defeated Germany. For the purposes of this publication, an analysis of selected French press titles was made: “Le Gaulois”, “Le Temps”, “Le Figaro”, “Le Petit Parisien”, “La Croix” as well as the British press: “The Globe”, “The Pall Mall Gazette” and “Daily Mirror”, covering the end of 1918 and the first months of 1919. These daily newspapers represented different political environments and audiences, but shared large popularity and circulation. Selected articles which provide information about the causes, outbreak, course and consequences of the Greater Poland Uprising were analyzed using the necessary historiography methods: analysis of press sources, the linguistic method and, above all, the comparative method.
