This article attempts to examine and define the functions and character of the periodicals and other press publications of Polish Eastern Borderlands community functioning in the structures of the Polish war refugees and post-war political emigration in the West. The author presents the origins and the various phases of its history, including the phase of its inexorable decline. In a series of concise individual profiles the article covers all printed materials that can be classified as the press publications of the Polish Eastern Borderlands community.

This article deals with Echo z Polski [ The Echo from Poland] (the title was subsequently altered to Echo Polskie), the first Polish-language newspaper in the United States, published in 1893–1865 in New York. While at first its pages were predominantly filled with news from Poland, it gradually broadened its coverage in an effort to become the leading paper of the Polish- American community.

Wybory do Sejmu PRL z 20 stycznia 1957 r. odbiły się żywym echem wśród emigracji polskiej w Wielkiej Brytanii. W artykule przedstawiono opinie i oceny emigracyjnych polityków i publicystów dotyczące przebiegu kampanii wyborczej i wyniku wyborów w 1957 r.

W artykule prześledzono obecność psychoanalizy w wydawanych w latach 1946–1981 w Londynie „Wiadomościach”. Przeanalizowano teksty zarówno zwolenników teorii Freuda i jego kontynuatorów, jak i ich oponentów, próbując tym samym odpowiedzieć na pytanie: czy na łamach emigracyjnego tygodnika doszło do przedyskutowania użyteczności psychoanalizy jako języka opisu zjawisk społeczno-kulturowych?

Although in recent decades Count Władysław Zamoyski has been attracting a lot of interest on the part of historians, which resulted in numerous papers and popular science works, he has not yet been the subject of an exhaustive scientific monograph. Its preparation is, however, going to be a difficult task for its future author. The many dispersed source materials and the Count’s more than 40 years long social, economic, and to a smaller extent political activity under the Prussian partition, in Galicia, among the Polish emigrants in France and during the first years of the Second Polish Republic – need to be described in the historical context, and, what follows, call for broad knowledge extending beyond these sources. Zamoyski’s path leading to his establishment in 1924 of the foundation ”Zakłady Kórnickie” – his life’s grandest work – should constitute the narrative axis weaving through all the chapters of his biography. It would be desirable to present extensively not only the Count’s activity in Galicia, Zakopane and his role in the famous dispute on Morskie Oko, but also his less researched and less known participation in the Polish-German fight for land in the Prussian partition in the late 19th and early 20th century.
