Jiří BRŇOVJÁK: Hrabě – kníže – vévoda. Titulární vzestup Alexandra Josefa Sułkowského, držitele bílského panství

s. 23–46

 

Count – Prince – Duke. Titular rise of Alexandr Josef Sułkowski, the Proprietor of Bílsko Demesne

 

The study deals with selected aspects of social and property career of the Polish aristocrat Alexandr Josef Sułkowski (1695-1762), an important Polish-Saxon politician. Sułkowski gained all higher titles possible within the Holy Roman Empire and the Habsburg monarchy as well as the Bohemian Lands (count, prince, duke). The author puts Sułkowski’s social rise within the Habsburg monarchy in context with his enforced withdrawal from the Polish-Saxon politics and with establishing landed estate first in Poland and later also in Austrian Silesia. It also deals with the circumstances of promoting the Bílsko demesne first to princedom (1752) and later to Duchy (1754). It is particularly concerned with the clarification of the fact that Sułkowski was simultaneously promoted into imperial as well as Bohemian princedom (1752), it also analyses the consequent extension of the princedom titles from primogeniture line to all the legal descendants (1754). It is based on the so far exploited archive materials from Vienna Austrian State Archive which explain the phenomenon of double princedom titles by the existence of the Bohemian-Empire agreement on reciprocal awarding of Bohemian and imperial titles.

 

Key Words: Austrian Silesia, Alexandr Josef Sułkowski, princedom title, ducal title, Empire court office, directorium in publicis et cameralibus, Fridrich, monarchal powers

Jánské Koupele. The Spa History in the 19th century

 

The study deals with the history of former spa Jásnké Koupele in Opava region. From the beginning of the 19th century till the beginning of World War II, it was the nearest and in times of its heyday also the main spa resort for Opava residents. The study covers the spa history from its establishment in about 1810 till the turn of 19th and 20th century, when it became modern and prospering spa resort. The myths passed about the older period, before the establishment of the spa, are also dealt with. The general objective of the study is the correction of the formerly passed inaccurate information on its history, it tries to outline the waves of flowering and stagnation of the resort depending on the owners’ interests and the changing social circumstances which could have played into the hands of the spa development or, on the contrary, it could have become one of the decaying institutions. The study also deals with the expensive technological development of the resort at the end of the 19th century.  As far as the older period is concerned, the study is based on old literature and advertising in periodicals and for the end of the 19th century also from the preserved archive sources.

National Policy in the Inter-War Hlučín Region (with Accent on Elementary School System)

 

Rather large German minority lived in Hlučín region, however, all German schools were closed down (except for two villages) after the annexation of the region to the Czechoslovak Republic in 1920. When parents wanted to provide their children with education in German language, they had to send them to schools in Opava. Several Czech parents from the Hlučín region wanted German education for their children as well. Even though it was not against the law (in Silesia, unlike Moravia, law that a child may attend only school whose language corresponds to his/her nationality was not in force), authorities tried to prevent the Czech speaking Hlučín children from studying at German schools. The study gives detailed analysis of archive materials and deals with the problems in the context of the national policy of the state, especially analysis of the effective legislation and how in Hlučín region the legislation was circumvented by the authorities themselves, especially by the plenipotentiary government official Josef Šrámek.

 

Key Words: Czechoslovakia 1918–38, Hlučín region, German minority, national relations, educational policy

Jan KUBICA: Horst Bienek a jeho dílo ve světle novějšího literárního bádání

s. 141–150

 

Horst Bienek and his work in the light of the new literary research

 

The contribution includes an essay about the view of the older and younger generation of Bienek’s researchers on his Gliwice tetralogy (Gleiwitzer Tetralogy). I mainly work with the monograph written by R. Laube and V. Nolte Horst Bienek – Ein Schriftsteller in den Extremen des 20. Jahrhunderts. In this monograph there are interesting contributions by R. Laube and T. Urbach about the author’s still not published diaries, because these can bring new facts clarifying the aspects of the author’s life and work which are not known yet. I also focus on the memoir text H. Bienek Workuta, which has been recently published in the editorial office of M. Krüger. This book brings new information about the author’s stay in the labour camp in Siberia.

 

Key Words: Horst Bienek, National Socialism, Stalinism, forced labour
