Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Polish Problem In the first days of August, 1914, when the Germans crossed the frontier of Russian Poland and occupied Kalisz, they dis tributed a proclamation promising to the Poles freedom from Russian oppression, and independence, if the war ended favour ably to German arms. The German proclamation was undated, but evidently printed a long time before its distribution. On the 10th of August the commander of the Austrian Northern Army distributed a proclamation to the Poles. The Austrian proclamation did not give any definite promises, but expressed a h0pe that the Russian Poles would help Austria; and that the Poles, relying on the goodwill always shown to them by the Hapsburg monarchy, might be sure that their attitude would be rewarded. On the 14th of August the commander-in-chief of the Russian army, Grand Duke Nicholas, issued a proclamation to the Poles, expressing the hope that Austrian and German Poles would help Russia, and containing the following words: The Russian Army brings you the solemn news of reconciliation, which obliterates the frontiers dividing the Polish people, and unites them con jointly under the sceptre of the Russian Tsar. Under this sceptre Poland will be born again, free in her religion and in her language. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Let us unite our efforts and fill our hearts with brotherly love! Let us refrain from pursu ing policies which sanction injustice, permitevil and lower man's moral standard.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The thirteen authors of this collective work undertook to articulate matter-of-fact critiques of the dominant narrative about communism in Poland while offering new analyses of the concept, and also examining the manifestations of anticommunism. Approaching communist ideas and practices, programs and their implementations, as an inseparable whole, they examine the issues of emancipation, upward social mobility, and changes in the cultural canon. The authors refuse to treat communism in Poland in simplistic categories of totalitarianism, absolute evil and Soviet colonization, and similarly refuse to equate communism and fascism. Nor do they adopt the neoliberal view of communism as a project doomed to failure. While wholly exempt from nostalgia, these essays show that beyond oppression and bad governance, communism was also a regime in which people pursued a variety of goals and sincerely attempted to build a better world for themselves. The book is interdisciplinary and applies the tools of social history, intellectual history, political philosophy, anthropology, literature, cultural studies, and gender studies to provide a nuanced view of the communist regimes in east-central Europe.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Peace With Empire: The Problem Germany must be crushed.' To humiliate Germany would prevent any lasting peace.' SO the war of phrases goes on in our ears to-day. And it is largely a war of phrases. For if one gets the people on either side to describe what sort of resettlement of Europe they would like to see after the war, one does not find much difference, so far as recasting the European system goes. No responsible person in England has suggested that Germany should be dismembered in the sense that regions genuinely German in race and sympathies should be torn away from the Empire. No one on the other side can suppose that a settlement involving the loss of Alsace and the Polish provinces would be contemplated for a moment by Germany, except after a defeat so signal as to constitute in itself a pretty considerable humiliation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Master Problem T is not easy to write a foreword to this most im portant book, which contains a mass of information, much of it painful, and yet all of it necessary for the social and moral reformer to know. One almost hesitates to ask people to study so much that makes one feel how far we are from having a world populated by people living under the inﬂuence of God, the Father of the World. But I am encouraged to recommend this book because I am satisfied that the indifference shown to the great sex questions is mainly due to ignorance. If once we can rouse people to a sense of the awfulness of all those evils with which this book deals, we shall, I believe, find that the mass of humanity will be active on the side of reform. No man or woman reading these pages will afterwards be able to plead the excuse of not knowing how terrible the conditions are under which some people are living, and how heroic must be any reforms attempted. God prosper this book for the bettering of humanity. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Landmarks of Polish History The Great War has produced a welcome reaction against that indifference towards problems of foreign affairs which was so marked and so regrettable a feature of the past fifteen years. British public opinion was absorbed in the internal affairs of these islands, and often tended to neglect even the greatest of our Imperial problems. European politics were allowed to remain a sealed book; and if this was true even of such near neighbours as France and Germany, it applies with tenfold force to the vast and complicated chain of problems which link up Russia, austria-hungary, and the Balkans. The policy of splendid isolation had been abandoned, but despite the growth of a system of ententes, little or no effort was made to break down the attitude of intellectual isolation which had gradually replaced the old traditions of active interest in continental affairs.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from After Bread: A Story of Polish Emigrant Life to America ON the waves of the wide ocean rode the German steamer Blucher, on its pas sage from Hamburg to New York. It had been on its way four days. Two days ago it had passed the green coast of Ireland and reached the broad Atlantic. From the deck, as far as the eye could reach, could be seen the gray and green surface, plowed up in furrows and hol lows, rocking heavily, foaming in places, in the distance more dark, where the water joined the sky in a white, cloudy mist. The reﬂection from the clouds fell some times upon the water, and upon this pearly background was drawn with sharp outlines the figure of the steamer. The ship, with its bow pointing to the west, climbed to the crest of the billows, and then, as if going to drown itself, sank in the trough of the sea; sometimes it disappeared from View, sometimes it was lifted so high on the top of the waves that part of its keel could be seen - still pressed steadily onward. The waves rolled toward it, and it rushed toward the waves and cut them With its prow. Behind it chased, like a gigantic snake, a wide strip of foaming water; several sea-gulls followed in its wake, circling in the air with their wild cries.

The life histories of its great sons were to me of equal importance with books of devotion. Under no circumstances, not even war, would I neglect these sources of instruction and inward inspiration. And yet it would be perfectly accurate to say that mine is a nonpolitical temperament. It was against my inclination to take any interest in current politics. Perhaps my liking for political criticism is too weak, and possibly my soldierly instincts are too strong. The latter are certainly responsible for my dislike of everything diplomatic. This dislike can be called prejudice or want of understanding. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
