    No full text
    The history of diplomatic relations provides a sound basis for the study of the history of economy and culture. Single events also offer a possibility of analysing the “long lasting” processes. They also give us a chance to address some issues concerning transformations in the production process, in the structure of barter trade, social relations and culture transformations. The author has made an attempt to show some of such opportunities analysing the history of Medieval Poland

    Artykuł dotyczy nazw miejscowych, używanych na pograniczu Puszczy Białej, a konkretnie znajdujących się na obszarze dzisiejszej gminy Długosiodło. Autor analizuje ponad 50 nazw miejscowości, które dzieli na okresy chronologiczne według czasu, kiedy powstały, oraz według pochodzenia (np. od szaty roślinnej, nazwisk mieszkańców czy też warsztatów rzemieślniczych). Zestawienie nazw stanowi interesującą informację dotyczącą ich pochodzenia, przy czym, jak to w konkluzji swego artykułu stwierdza Autor, w pierwszym okresie występują przede wszystkim nazwy wywodzące się od działalności człowieka, w drugim głównie od warunków biologicznych, a w dobie nowożytnej nazwy odosobowe, związane z jednostkami, grupami rodowymi, prawnymi bądź zawodowymi. Publikacja zawiera interesujące, nowe informacje dotyczące omawianego obszaru, ale niejednokrotnie mogące odnosić się do innych terenów.The article concerns names of localities (towns and villages) along the edge of Puszcza Biała (Biała Wood), and specifically within the territory of present Długosiodło Commune. The Author analyses over 50 names of places categorised according to period of their founding, as well as the origin of names (e.g. local vegetation, inhabitants or craftsmanship). The names convey interesting information on their origin. As the Author states in the conclusion, in period I mainly names derived from human activities were given, in period II, names related to biological conditions predominated, while in the modern times, names were created in connection with individuals, national, legal or professional groups. The work comprises interesting new data on the studied area and sharp observations that may also apply to other areas in Poland

    Karol Modzelewski: historian, homme politique, and friend. Several remarks Article treats on both aspects of Professor Modzelewski’s endeavours. With respect to his political accomplishments, Samsonowicz returns to earlier years, stressing the inspirational role of Modzelewski’s speeches for the forming of the political opposition in Poland after 1956: their goals, slogans, and their style in general. He notices also the courage and consistency of Professor Modzelewski, who functioned for many years under the pressure of severe police repressions. Discussing the scientific field, Samsonowicz points out that Modzelewski has numerous achievements in reconstructing Polish the issue of the political and economic system of the early Piast monarchy and European history research on Italy under Lombard domination, and on the formation of European states and nations within the process of mutual infiltration of the late–classical and the “barbarian” civilisations of the Germans, Slavs, Finno–Ugric and Baltic peoples.Karol Modzelewski: historian, homme politique, and friend.
