National Traditions in the Historiography of the State : the Case of Poland
In the long 19th century (1795-1918) the Polish nation was deprived of its state. As a result, few Poles saw reasons to associate the State with the Nation. Romantic ideas which had predominated in the early 19th century, after 1863 were replaced by a special national brand of positivism. In the later 19th century, the "Warsaw School" of historians focussed on the economic revival and political reforms of the last pre-partitions decades. The "Cracow School" was more critical of the constitution of the Old Commonwealth (in the 16th-18th centuries); it attacked the form of the government and the gentry's anarchical tendencies. After 1945, the influence of Soviet-style Marxism was short and superficial. In the last decades, the interest of historians focusses on the society of orders and the parliamentary "structure of politics". The question is being discussed, when and why there opened a gap between Poland-Lithuania and other states of early modern Europe.Maczak Antoni.
