Produktinformationen "The Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria"
The Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria: A History of Empire This comprehensive history examines the Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria from the First Partition of Poland in 1772 through its dissolution in 1923. The narrative explores how the Habsburg Empire attempted to govern one of Europe's most ethnically diverse provinces, where Polish nobles, Ukrainian peasants, and Jewish merchants developed a complex system of coexistence under imperial rule. The book traces Galicia's transformation through the 1848 revolutions, the gradual expansion of rights and representation, the catastrophic impact of World War One, and the violent birth of nation-states from empire's ruins. Special attention is given to the November 1918 battle for Lwów, the subsequent pogrom, and the Polish-Ukrainian war that determined the region's fate. The final chapters examine how Habsburg Galicia has been remembered and mythologized, exploring what this lost world of multinational accommodation reveals about the possibilities and limitations of managing ethnic diversity in modern political systems.
