In the autumn of 1921 Przemyśl became a garisson town for the 5th Podhale Rifles Infanrty Regiment. That regiment, pariticulary spectacular compared with other units the Przemyśl garrison, remained in town until 1939 September campagin. It grew into its landscape, leaving in it an unforgetable mark of the mountain units, their tradition and distinctness. What was suprising was the activeness and involment of the soldiers, most of all the cadre, in the social and cultural life of the town. Many initiatives implemented at that time never reached such a scale as in perios beetwen two wars. This article is an attempt to show these activities and their influence on the attitudes of the Przemysl community in the interwar period.

Difficult years of war and financial problems of the Scientific Society of Przemysl resulted in decision of the Board of the Society to liquidate the library collection in 1951. Around 14,000 volumes of books were divided and sent to various institutions. One of the beneficiaries of TPN became the Maria Curie-Skłodowska University in Lublin. Specifically the library, which purchased 7,565 volumes of books in 1956. In this figure there were publications of Przemysl publishing houses, some of which little-known to various researchers of bookstore-publishing market in town. 92 titles, printed in Przemysl and discovered at Maria Curie-Skłodowska University are here described.

This article is a source study based on information published in Echo Przemyskie – a periodical coming out in Przemyśl at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. The literature on the subject, helpful in carrying out an analysis and comparing its results is based on studies by historians (both Polish and foreign) of different specializations, among others researchers of history of Jews, Przemyśl and the press. On the basis of the most frequent and typical descriptions the author attempts to reconstruct the image of a Jew depicted in the periodical in question during the first decade of its publication, often comparing his own conclusions with the results of analyses by other researchers. The structure of the article – after the initial part including the description of the newspaper in question and a brief outline of the reality of Przemyśl in the late 19th century – is based on the description of particular alleged characterological and physical features of Jewish people. In conclusion the author includes recapitulation based on an overall compilation of the previously described characteristics, which he attempts to depict against the background of mainstream Polish writing of that period.

Julia-Valerie Niementowska (1899-1982), a daughter of the classic author of Ukrainian literature Ulyana Kravchenko (1860-1947) devoted her life to ordering and preservation of her mother’s creativity and her archive. Thanks to her activities, modern scholars can use valuable documents that relate not only to the life and work of Ulyana Kravchenko, but also to many fi gures of Ukrainian culture at the end of the 19th and fi rst half of the 20th century. The materials from her mother’s personal archive were located in Kyiv and Warsaw. On the verge of 1950-1960 a part of the most valuable manuscripts Julia Niementowska was transferred from the mother’s archive to the Institute of Literature at the Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. Instead, the bulk of Ulyana Kravchenko’s archive after the death of Julia Niementowska were moved into the monastic archive of the Basilian Fathers in Warsaw.

Brzyk, Wargocki and Czechowicz families earned their place in town’s history in the second half of sexteen century not only assuming the most import ant office in the town, but also consisting group the richest and the most educated Przemyśl’ inhabitans of this period. The chronological range of the article are appointed by essential dates in the development of self-government of Przemyśl. In the 1551 year make-up of the town council was awidened (instead of four from now on eight town councillors formed it). However 27 IX III 1602 king Sigmund III Zygmunt issued privilege establishing the manner of choice of municipal authorities of Przemyśl. Out of three above mentioned families the most places in studies were devoted to the Brzyks. It results mainly from the fact, that they were the owners of three tenement-houses in the mainsquare, which were the subject of archtecional studies of J.T. Frazik. Another family, which members seated themselves in city authorities in the second half of the sexteen century were Wargocki’s. The majority from it’s representatives was educated, probably at Cracow Academy. A fact is attesting to it, that everyone of Wargocki’s, being echevins and councillors, worked also in the municipal chancellery. Family having a few representatives in the ruling elite in the second half of the sexteen century were also Czechowicz. The Brzyks we can determine with name of the merchant family, because each of it representatives was engaged in trade (mainly with cloth) to the high scale. Next we can treat the Wargocki family as the intellectual elite of the Przemyśl burgesses. However Bartłomiej Czech and his sons Jakub, Maciej and Stanisław are representatives of craftsmen (specifically of tailors) which had a career reaching positions of echevins or town councillors.

This paper is based on a series of floristic notes collected between 1984 - 1990 from the areas of high nature conservation value within the city of Przemysl. These valuable natural areas were characterized by having high plant species richness. A total of 468 species (excluding from synanthropic habitats) were found, which represents 46% of the total number of taxa identified so far within the city. A total of 254 species were recorded in the area No.1; 330 species in the area No. 2; and 245 species in the area No. 3. The floristically richest area in terms of rare and protected species was found to be area No. 2 - around Winna Gora. This site supported species such as: Aruncus sylvestris, Campanula sibirica, Cerasus fruticosa, Dactylorhiza incarnata, D. maculata, D. majalis, Daphne mezereum, Dianthus Armeria, Epipactis palustris, Koeleria macrantha, Linum austriacum, Listera ovata, Orobanche picridis, Parnassia palustris, Platanthera bifolia, Polypodium vulgare, Ribes nigrum, Rosa gallica. Area No.1, around Tatar Mound and Kruhel, was distinguished by the presence of species such as: Calluna vulgaris, Campanula rotundifolia, Eriophorum angustifolium, Genista germanica, Gentiana cruciata, Gymnadenia conopsea, Jasione montana, Laserpitium latifolium, Menyanthes trifoliata, Sedum acre, Tofieldia calyculata, Trifolium alpestre, T. rubens, Veronica teucrium. Area No. 3, Lipowica and south along the Ostrów beck, was distinguished by the presence of such taxa as Aposeris foetida, Centaurium erythraea, Equisetum hyemale, Eriophorum latifolium Dentaria glandulosa, Gentianella ciliata, Neottia nidus-avis, Vinca minor. In recent years some of these areas have been significantly transformed: a ski lift and slope have been built within the area No. 1; the area around Mound Tatar has been converted into recreational grounds; a large part of area No .2 has been occupied by the construction of a by-pass road (the Budy loess ravines and Szajbówka); while the remainder has been overtaken by secondary succession to rank grassland and overgrown scrub. The majority of area No. 3 (around Lipowica) is well preserved, but a lot of land is now occupied by private housing, and some places have lost their floristic richness as a result of natural succession after the abandonment of grazing and cutting. Considering the importance of the remnants of the described natural areas all possible initiatives should be taken in order to accurately investigate them and take all necessary steps to grant them legal protection.

Do tej pory brak osobnej biografii biskupa Michała Korczyńskiego, pomimo tego, że dobrze zasłużył się dla Kościoła i dla Polski. Niniejszy szkic jest pierwszą próbą opracowania takiej biografii. Zebrałem w nim rozproszone na ogół informacje doty-czące nie tylko kolejnych etapów życia, ale także obfitej twórczości M. K. Szkic daje możliwość poznania niezwykłego człowieka. Towarzysząc mu w drodze od małego przysiółka w pobliżu Mielca do rezydencji biskupiej w Przemyślu można dostrzec jego pracowitość, pokorę i poczucie obowiązku. Analizując twórczość – troskę o życie religijne i narodowe. Staranie M. K. o wiarę znajduje swój wyraz w takich pra-cach czy tłumaczeniach jak: „Katechizm dla dzieci wiejskich ku wygodzie parochów spisany…”, „Wykład nauki Kościoła katolickiego…”, „Ksiądz Pleban…” a może przede wszystkim pierwsze polskie czasopismo teologiczne „Przyjaciel Chrześcijańskiej Prawdy”. Staranie o polskość – w opracowaniu „Początków gramatyki języka polskiego”, z których obszerne cytaty z mogą zaskoczyć czytelnika.

Despite of his obvious merits for the Church and Poland, a separate biography of bishop Michal Korczynski has never been written or published. This study is the first attempt to write such a biography. I gathered various, usually scat-tered, pieces of information about the subsequent phases of M. K’s life as well as his rich literary legacy. This essay provides an opportunity to meet a truly unique man. Accompanying him from a small hamlet near Mielec all the way to the bishop’s residence in Przemysl one may appreciate his work ethic, diligence, humbleness and his sense of duty. While analyzing his work it is impossible not to notice his concern about religious and national matters. M. K’s care and focus on faith is demonstrated in his writings and translations such as “The Catechism for Rural Children…”, „The Lecture of the Cath-olic Church on those articles of faith…”, The Parish Priest…”, and possibly the most visible in the first Polish theological periodical „A Friend of the Christian Truth”. His care about Polishness – in his work on „The Beginnings of the Polish Grammar” – a source of extensive quotations that some readers may find very surprising.

An artistic milieu of a given area is usually created by artists; nevertheless local art patrons as well as institutions that support artistic activities influence it. Despite being one of Poland’s oldest cities Przemyśl through the ages had never had its own and separate artistic milieu. As for earlier times of the city’s history there are known only some names of artists who has been working mainly for two local church communities: Roman Catholic and Byzantine Catholic. A large number of artists arrived to Przemysl in the 18th century; that was connected with building and restoring a few of the churches or with re-decorating some of them. An artistic revival in Przemysl became in the 2nd half of the 19th century due to development stimulated by the erection of great fortifications surrounding the city. Next time Przemyśl hosted a considerable group of artists during the WWI. The reason was Austro-Hungarian General Staff’s decision to commemorate military activities in different (also artistic) ways and to establish war cemeteries. At that time local artistic circles got started to organise. Because of Przemyśl’s ethnic and cultural complexity its artistic milieu was internally rich and various. In those days Ukrainians’ cultural conscience was awakening; they were seeking (e.g. Olena Kulchytska) their roots in folklore. The new sense and autonomy of the Jewish art, separate from its utilitarian function, were emerging, too. The following Jewish painters worked at Przemysl: Adolf Bienenstock, Anna Mieses, Maksymilian Fuering, Edward Stahl, or a sculptor Mojżesz Schwanenberg. However, one should admit that the largest and most active artistic milieu was that of Poles. The press information relating to their exhibits and creative achievements has survived in archives. Przemyśl-rooted artists were: Teofil Kopystyński, Feliks Michał Wygrzywalski, Carl Duldig, Otto Axer, Juliusz Studnicki. Some artists stayed in Przemyśl for a long time, some left the city for other cultural centres. Some grew up here and returned to Przemysl after their studies in Krakow (Marian Stronski) or Lviv (Stefania Jacyszynowna). Others settled down at Przemyśl as artistically shaped personalities (Stanisław Jakubowski, Stanisław Jankowski, Stefan Wyrwicz), and a few of them had finished their studies at foreign academies (Wanda Zabokrzycka, Józef Wilk). Artistic circles of pre-war Przemyśl had not any institutional framework; no "artistic bohamia" nor gallery nor fine arts society had existed. Among the artists active in Przemyśl Juliusz Studnicki was a member of Grupa Pryzmat (Prism Group), and Mojżesz Schwanenfeld – of Grupa Krakowska (Cracow Group). In Przemyśl never existed fine arts academy – therefore artists’ own opinion-forming milieu was impossible to exist. In this situation the Przemyśl Friends of Sciences Society in a great degree carried out the function of an artistic patronage: it organized individual and group exhibitions, published reviews in the local press and purchased artists’ works for the local museum. Most of artists presented their works also at exhibitions in other cities in Poland and abroad. Many times they gained awards and distinctions in all-Poland competitions (Juliusz Studnicki, Marian Stroński, Józef Wilk, Stefan Wyrwicz). The social status of artists in pre-war Przemyśl was rather high as they were widely appreciated and respected persons but alas this status was not reflected in their financial position. That is why apart from artistic work they often worked as schoolteachers or clerks in different institutions. Many artists advertised in local newspapers their works or drawing and painting lessons. Apart from those who emigrated from Przemyśl and in their new locations got famous all over Poland, the rest did not gain fame for they had no clout to make their artistic presence felt and seldom showed themselves as artistic vanguard. They are linked to each other with a certain genius loci, and slightly pompous yet moderate style, strongly connected with the tradition, and not too open-minded for new trends. The outbreak of the WWII interrupted city’s customary life for several years. Most of Przemyśl artists wrestled with difficulties of everyday’s life. After the war when the new reality came, some artists started their new life in other cultural centres; some of them however found it hard to understand the new world and never entirely accepted it. Only Marian Stroński and in the lesser degree Stefan Wyrwicz were the ones who received recognition for their accomplishments after the war.

The article presents the origin and activities of the Law Society in Przemysl,which was founded as the fourth in Galicia (after Cracow, Lviv and Kosovo) in 1872.However, the Society did not start its operation immediately. The initiative to establisha Law Society rekindled in 1889, but despite the favorable atmosphere andbroad public support (e.g. from the local press), Przemysl had to wait for its LS until1893. This time, the organization’s activity was promising (the number of memberswas growing, public readings were being organized, a library began to be completed),but it suddenly collapsed in 1902, followed by a 12-year period of “lethargy”.Activity resumed in 1914, but only for a few months, until the outbreak of WorldWar I. Law Society was then reactivated in 1925, thanks to the joint efforts of therepresentatives of the local bar and court environment. The Society was once againvery active (library, reading room, public readings on various branches of law, talks,regular general society meetings). The authorities of the organization also tried topromote unconventional forms of spreading legal knowledge, such as a mock trialor an excursion for the members to a correctional facility. In December 1938, theheadquarters of the Society moved from the old building of the District Court (26Rynek Street) to the newly constructed court building at 6 Konarskiego Street. Withthe outbreak of World War II, the Przemysl Law Society ceased to exist.

Artykuł przedstawia genezę i działalność Towarzystwa Prawniczego w Przemyślu, które powstało w 1872 r. jako czwarte w Galicji (po Krakowie, Lwowie i Kosowie). Stowarzyszenie nie rozwinęło jednak wówczas działalności. Inicjatywa powołania TP odżyła w 1889 r., ale pomimo sprzyjającego klimatu i szerokiego poparcia społecznego (m.in. ze strony prasy lokalnej), Przemyśl musiał poczekać na swoje TP aż do roku 1893. Tym razem działalność organizacji rozwijała się obiecująco (rosła liczba członków, organizowano odczyty, zaczęto kompletować bibliotekę), jednak załamała się nagle w 1902 r., po czym nastąpił 12-letni okres „letargu”. Wznowiona w 1914 r. działalność trwała tylko kilka miesięcy – do wybuchu I wojny światowej. Reaktywacja TP nastąpiła dopiero w 1925 r., dzięki wspólnym staraniom przedstawicieli miejscowej adwokatury i środowiska sądowego. Towarzystwo znów działało prężnie (biblioteka, czytelnia, odczyty z różnych dziedzin prawa, pogadanki, regularne walne zebrania). Władze organizacji starały się również propagować niekonwencjonalne formy szerzenia wiedzy prawniczej, jak np. symulowana rozprawa sądowa czy wycieczka do zakładu poprawczego. W grudniu 1938 r. siedzibę Towarzystwa przeniesiono ze starego gmachu Sądu Okręgowego (Rynek 26) do nowo wybudowanego gmachu sądu przy ul. Konarskiego 6. Z chwilą wybuchu II wojny światowej Towarzystwo Prawnicze w Przemyślu przestało istnieć.
