Commemorations and the shaping of modern Poland

Dabrowski, Patrice M. 1960- (Author).

Summary: Patrice M. Dabrowski investigates the nation-building activities of Poles during the decades preceding World War I, when the stateless Poles were minorities within the empires of Russia, Germany, and Austria-Hungary. Could Poles maintain a sense of national identity, or would they become Germans, Austrians, or Russians?
