The Czech-Polish Scientific Cooperation and Polish Interest in Czech Medieval History and Polish-Czech Relations in the Middle Ages at the Beginning of the Twentieth First Century

It was fifteen years ago, when a thirty-year retrospective of Polish and Czech historical and philological research was published. Unfortunately until now we do not have any similar resume for the last decade.The author does not summarize the research works conducted over past ten years, although he focuses on new publications. He rather pays his attention on shared research topics referring to Polish-Czech relations in medieval times. He also defines new research proposals and platforms for scientific co-operation. It is also worth emphasizing that in Poland there is undiminished interest in early medieval Czech history and Polish-Czech relations in that period. Thus we may observe various aspects and forms of cooperation. E.g. there are publishing projects like „Regesty dokumentów przechowywanych na Górnym Śląsku” or „Śląsk perła w Czeskiej Koronie” (Silesia – A Pearl in the Bohemian Crown). Polish and Czech historians meet each other during conferences organized by Komisja Dziejów Czech i Stosunków Polsko-Czeskich PAN (Commision of Czech History and Polish-Czech Relations/ Polish Academy of Sciences). They also attend conferences in Gnesno (every two years it takes form of Polish-Czech Young Medievists Forum) and Zabrze (conference cycle: „Central European Culture”). An interesting platform for cooperation might be recently founded Polish-Czech Scientific Society. Czech history and history of Polish-Czech relations gradually becomes a part of university teaching programmes and is represented in research programmes of scientific institutions. It all resulted in growing number of scientific publications.

Czech Issues and Polish-Czech Relations in Early Mediewal Ages in Polish Historical and Archeological Studies in the Past Fifteen Years

In past fifteen years in Poland we could observe an intensiva development of studies on early medieval times. In particularly it was noticeable in archeological and historical sciences and resulted from preparations for two millennium anniversaries – the death of St. Adalbert and the Gnesno Convention. Thus in years 1996–1999 many interdisciplinary research projects on history and culture of contemporary Polish lands at the turn of the ninth and tenth centurie were conducted. Although Czech-Polish relations were main subjects of various independent research projects, they resulted in various interesting outcomes, particularly archeological materials. They enabled new insight into above-mentioned research fields. And it also refers to times, when the state of Great Moravia was formed, and to scale and character of its contacts with tribes inhibiting Silesia and Lesser Poland (especially in reference to their „material culture”). The interest in Czech history and culture at the turn of the ninth and tenth centuries covered following issues: source text studies, political ideology and social relations in the Czech Premyslid state. Yet there are still some unacknowledged topics, i.e. Polish-Czech religious, economic and intellectual (in reference to writing) contacts.

The Central European Medieval State Model as an Interpretative Problem of Polish and Czech Medieval History Studies

The paper aims to present both complex nature and multiple origins of deepseated conflict with reference to validity of Central European medieval state model. The author emphasizes that the discussion on early medieval forms of state on territories of contemporary Czech Republic, Moravia, Poland, Slovakia or Hungary may be continued only on international scholarly forum that eliminates all socio-political factors (see Feyerabend) influencing the development of scientific theory and method. The origin of narrative framework for understanding and creating the Central European medieval state model should be linked with Polish authors. In contemporary Polish historiography that issue is being raised again. Thus we may expect that return of that subject of research would provide us a wider framework for scientific cooperation between Polish and Czech medieval history studies.

Polish Medieval Studies in Comparison to Czech ones within the Last Decade

The bilateral workshops between Polish and Czech historians give a good picture of cooperation between the scholars working on medieval history. Various reviews published in scientific journals do not epitomize it well enough. Due to the dense social network and numerous possibilities for personal, face-to-face meetings vivid debates are mostly held during diverse conferences and behind the scenes. Shared topics are defined by: geographical space (e.g. Silesia and Kłodzko region), political relations between both states and fields of research (e.g. rites, power, church, court life). Nowadays contacts between scholars and research teams find their common ground in various projects. The most important one is biannual meeting on subsidiary lands of the Crown of Bohemia (Vedlejší země Koruny české), social and cultural similarities in development of Central European space or comparison of Central European monarchies. Local Czech universities cooperate with Polish higher education institutions. Structurally constructed statements on ancient history of Czech resp. Polish state cannot be put in the framework of modern state and Central Europe seems to be the region with many shared developmental elements.

Early Modern Times in Polish Historical Studies of Czech History and Polish-Czech Relations

Both Habsburg rule over the Czech lands (1526) and – after the Battle of the White Mountain – the loss of Czech state sovereignty, were reflected in Polish studies on Czech history. In principle the Czech lands were perceived as a part of Habsburg Monarchy. Thus previous Polish interest in Czech history and Polish-Czech relations in the 16th-18th centuries was limited and fragmentary. In consequence, it still lacks multilevel synthesis of Czech history and Polish-Czech relations in early modern times. As far as political history is concerned scholars usually focus on three groups of research problems: 1) the role and place of Czechs during the period of three free elections, 2) Czech uprising of 1618 and its Polish context, and 3) the Siege of Vienna. Better represented are Polish-Czech cultural relations, e.g. bilateral linguistic and literary influences, school and education contacts (Komenski), print book circulation, merging of Polish and Czech artistic currents and trends, religious impact of reformation and counter-reformation. Yet, there are still unacknowledged research problems that are worthy of interest.

Poland in Early Modern Times vs. Czech Historical Knowledge (up to the eighteenth century)

In the twentieth century Polish history was a fixed part of Czech historiography, yet it was the main area of Bidl’s and Macůrk’s studies only. Recently we may observe a significant change, as Polish and Czech historiography cooperate more closely with each other. Hence for Czech historians (i.e. Pánek, Bečková) „Polish issues” are more often a natural part of universal early modern history. We also observe reinterpretations of old research problems and emerging of New ones. Thanks to Miloš Řezník Elary modern Polish history is set in a new framework. There are plenty of new research projects on the eighteenth century Polish history, new books and papers on Polish history are being publishes, thereby some of them are lectures on a scientific themes for the general public. Conceptualization of Polish history by Czech scholars is structured by works of Jiři Vykoukal on Poland in the eighteenth century. 1. History of Poland. 2. History of Czech-Polish relations. 3. Regional history. There is also new interesting research field emerging. It is study on perceptions and interpretations of Polish history by Czech historians, „public opinion” and students. Thus the study of Polish history changes into the study of contemporary perception of Polish history in Czech (resp. Moravian) milieu. Controversies in the perception of Polish history seem to be quasi-controversies only. They began to disappear together with disappearance of national and étatistic elements of Czech historiography. Yet, they are still present – in a latent form – in the perception of Polish history by general public (particularly due to the journalism and the literature of fact). Some remains of this stance are also visible in the above-mentioned perception of history as „representation of the past”.

The Czech Issues in the Research of Polish Historians in the Twentieth First Century (State of Research and Future Perspectives)

Among Polish scholars working on the nineteenth century history we may observe a move away from Czech issues. That tendency could be seen in e.g. a small number of publications on the above mentioned topics. Thus one should think onto, what must be done, to make the research process more vivid. The need for both cooperation between Polish and Czech historians and intensification of their research on bilateral relations has been discussed many times. Among authors, who raised the above mentioned problem, were e.g. J. Macůrk, J. Chlebowczyk, J. Gruchała, P. M. Majewski and R. Baron. It is also worth emphasizing that statements, diagnosis and suggestions of the above mentioned authors are still relevant for contemporary historians, i.e. those, who conduct their research at the beginning of the twentieth first century. Historians working on Polish-Czech relations pointed out that they should be perceived in a wider historical context. They also emphasized that regional differences between Poland and Czech Republic should be taken into account, and scholars in their research ought to go beyond contacts between Warsaw and Prague. Young scholars have also to remember about both partitions of Poland and deep differences between Czech lands in the nineteenth century. Indeed, in the nineteenth century Poles and Czechs were crammed into one political organism – the Habsburg Monarchy – what gives wider research opportunities for historians working on Czech-Polish relations, yet those relations should not be reduce to Galicia-Czech relations or the „Sillesian issue”. Equally interesting might be newly designed research f ields, ex. the interest of Poles inhabiting Great Poland in Czech issues. Also comparative works allow us to examine developmental similarities and differences between Czech and Poland. Doubtless within past ten or twentieth years new research possibilities for a group of historians working on PolishCzech relations had emerged. That wide and varied range of research possibilities can have great impact on reviving those researches in Poland. Poles can not only work in Czech, Austrian or Hungarian archives. They can also work in Ukrainian and Russian ones. The archival sources could enable the verification of findings to date and writing of new works. Extended, preliminary archival research could give us a solid basis for new and systematic research and enable us to fill many gaps in our knowledge on Polish-Czech relations in the nineteenth century. At the same time it’s worth stressing that Polish historians have to do more than their Czech colleagues.

Good enough? Polish-Czech Relations in the Nineteenth Century – the State of Research

The meeting of Polish, Czech and Slovakian historians in Cracow is an important step in executing the agreement in establishing their trilateral coope- ration. The agreement was signed in 2009 by the presidents of Polish Historical Society (Polskie Towarzystwo Historyczne) and Association of Historians of the Czech Republic (Sdružení historiků České republiky) (Historický klub 1872). The cycle of conferences that take place in Poland and Czech Republic alternately opens and provides a new forum for vivid scientific cooperation and exchange between Polish, Czech and Slovakian historians. Indeed, the title of the conference, An Opening Balance, is meaningful. The Po- lish-Czech Commission of Historical Sciences was cancelled a few years ago. Thus the new meeting cycle that provides frameworks for dialogue and coope- ration is particularly challenging and interesting for the researchers working on the nineteenth century history. The state of research on Polish-Czech relations in the above mentioned period was reviewed in several papers by Vladislav Šťastný, Jaroslav Horejsek, Jaroslav Valenta, Janusz Gruchała, Jerzy Kozeński, Andrzej Essen, Piotr Maciej Majewski, Grażyna Pańko and Roman Baron. Decreasing scientific interest of Polish and Czech historiography in bilateral relations in the nineteenth century was depicted in the papers presented during the ninth Convention of Czech Historians (Pardubice 2006) and the First Congress for Foreign Scholars of Polish History (Cracow 2007). Also the content of Czech lexicon by Jaroslav Pánek, Svatava Raková and Václava Horčáková entitled Scholars of Bohemian, Czech and Czechoslovak History Studies, vol. I-III, Prague 2005 shows that the above mentioned issues are underrepresented. Among Polish historians i.e. Stanisław Pijaj, Waldemar Łazuga, Witold Molik and Maciej Górny are working on the nineteenth century Polish-Czech relations. The situations seems to be better in Czech Republic, where also monographs presenting Polish lands during the partitions are being published. Research works of Miloš Řezník, Jiří Vykoukal and Jan Křen deserve special attention. Among research proposals we may list following issues: relations between the Czech lands and Great Poland, Little Poland or Galicia within the framework of Habsburg Monarchy, relations between Warsaw positivist and Czech intellectual circles, Czech-Polish relations in the region of Teschen Silesia, Polish-Czech scientific contacts and so on. Facing all the above mentioned problems we should not expect a modern synthesis of Polish-Czech relations in the nineteenth century to be published in the near future.

XIX century in the Czech and Polish historiography – different perspectives without topics?

The author neither reviews Czech historiographical publications presenting Czech-Polish issues in the nineteenth century, nor he focuses on Polish-Czech relations in the above mentioned period. He rather investigates Czech-Polish interpretative contexts of both Universal History and Polish resp. Czech History. The major fields of his interest are various perception determinants of the nineteenth century, i.e. how the national historiographical stance determines perception, meaning and interpretation of historical processes in the neighbor states. Thus he refers to historiography oriented towards National Movements. He also presents parallels (resp. similarities) and differences between Polish and Czech historiographical narrative patterns, and suggests some new research proposals. E.g. in case of Czech-Polish relations he emphasizes that there is a deep need of thematising the „inner” function of Polish-Czech contacts resp. relations within Polish and Czech intellectual milieu. E.g. he quotes different strategies of Polish and Czech National Movements, he also presents „Polish” dimension of Czech national movement in the late nineteenth century, particularly in Great Poland. In recent times researches call for including Polish-Czech (comparative) history in the framework of universal history. Their research proposals also refer to such (usually omitted) topics as: social classes in the Czech lands and Galicia at the end of the eighteenth and at the beginning of the nineteenth centuries, bilateral Polish and Czech inspirations do literary and artistic modernity (Prague-Vienna-Cracow), the rise of regional identities, relations between Czech and Kashubian Movement etc.

The Twentieth Century Historiography of Polish-Czech Relations – Major Problems and Key Issues

The author focuses on both the state of research and the number of publications referring to Polish-Czechoslovak relations in the twentieth century. He distinguishes between two periods in the development of contemporary historiographical narratives: 1. inter-war period, when historians were analyzing contemporary problems resulting from the series of peace treaties that formed the basis for the new European order (e.g. the problem of Teschen Silesia, Spish and Orava, national minorities in border regions). 2. post-war period, when new historical monographs were written. Those monographs both presented consecutive stages of Polish-Czech relations during the interwar period and referred to the complex problem of Polish-Czech border after 1945. Nowadays the outcomes and results of the research on Polish-Czech relations in the twentieth century are regarded as satisfactory. Not only main schools and tendencies of political thought in both countries had been deeply researched. Also other, more specific issues were analyzed in detail. It generates optimistic forecasts for the future research and production of synthetic works analyzing historiographical stances in both countries.

The author focuses on contemporary studies in the history of Polish-Czech (resp. Czechoslovak) relations in the past decade. He evaluates scientific tendencies, results of historical studies, characterizes the most important monographs etc. He also briefly discusses visible research trend to pick up various issues that are central to twentieth-century history (after the year 1945). They refer to post-war border conflicts, co-operation of PKR and CSRS against social resistance in both countries, Polish authorities’ attitude to the Prague Spring and Czechoslovak approach to political events in Poland in years 1980–1981.

Czech Historiography from 2007 till 2010 on Czech-Polish Relations in the Twentieth Century

The Polish history and Polish-Czech relations are one of the most popular research areas for Czech historians, at least in comparison with their studies on other neighbor nations. Also Czechoslovak-Polish relations in the twentieth century are relatively popular because of their conflictual nature and different interpretations among Polish and Czech historians. An important study aids are both bibliographic studies and attempts to critically review the state of research on the above mentioned topics, presented during international conferences or in scientific journals. In years 2007–2010 books discussing Polish history had been published in several publishing series as independent titles, e.x Dokumentů československé zahraniční politiky. Also memoirs of times witnesses present selected Polish issues. Polish-Czech relations in the Czechoslovak part of Teschen Silesia are – usually – of particular interest to historians. E.g. they publish books and papers on Polish socialists and Soviet repressions in Teschen Silesia, review the state of research on the above mentioned topics. Also Kłodzko Region is of great interest thanks to The Kłodzko Commision with its Kladským sborníkem journal that present various papers on the twentieth century history. Czechoslovakian-Polish relations were also the subject of various papers presented during international conferences and meeting in Prague. Today, just as in the past, a very popular research topic is – apart from Polish-Czechoslovak border conflict – bilateral contacts between Polish and Czechoslovak emigration during the II WW or plans of the Polish-Czechoslovak Confederation that still give rise to a great deal of discussion between Czech and Polish historians. Recently we could also observe increasing interest in Polis-Czechoslovak relations just after the II WW. Also contemporary history, Warsaw Pact invasion of Czechoslovakia and contacts between Polish and Czech dissidents are of interest. Bilateral relations are also presented in Czech journals, f.e. Slezský sborník, Slovanský přehled, Těšínsko, Kladský sborník, Soudobé dějiny and Czech-Polish Historical and Pedagogical Journal, published at Masaryk Uniwersity in Brno.
