Jerzy Borejsza. Modern Russia and the Soviet Union in Polish historiography after 1989. Polish historical science developed under very different conditions from those existing in the Soviet Union or other communist countries, particularly after 1956. It has produced important works on the history of Poland, Russia, and Polish- Russian relations. Most American and German scholars are well aware of the importance of these publications for the study of Russian and Soviet history. However, it is not always the case with scholars in other Western countries such as France or Italy, for instance. The representation of Russia's foreign policy from the end of the eighteenh century up to 1870 remains incomplete if one does not take into account the contribution of Polish historiography. Similarly, knowledge of the history of the Polish 1830 and 1863 nationalist uprisings and their influence on Nicholas I's and Alexander II's internal policies is crucial to understanding the history of the Russian empire. The history of Poland and that of the Soviet Union became closely intertwined after the Polish-Soviet war of 1920, and remained so until 1939. Afterwards, Polish-Russian relations were marked by deportations of Poles to the Gulag Archipelago, and both histories remained interconnected until the crucial years 1989 and 1990. The present article points to the present tendencies in Polish historiography and cites the most important publications of the last years. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
