TITLE: The Young Women’s Association. DESCRIPTION: This unsigned article discusses two newly established Young Women’s Associations (Devojačko udruženje) in Novi Sad (Újvidék) and Velika Kikinda (Nagykikinda), Vojvodina. The Vojvodina belonged to the Kingdom of Croatia-Slavonia which enjoyed a considerable degree of autonomy within the Lands of the Crown of Saint Stephen, or Hungary, in the dual Monarchy (from 1867) of Austria-Hungary. Serbian was one of the dominant languages spoken in the Vojvodina. The article was published in Ženski svet. List dobrotvornih zadruga Srpkinja (Women’s World. Journal of the Charitable Cooperatives of Serbian Women). The journal was published between 1886 and 1914 in Novi Sad (Újvidék), the Vojvodina, by the Charitable Cooperative of Serbian Women from Novi Sad (Dobrotvorna zadruga Srpkinja Novosatkinja). It was edited by Arkadije Varađanin, a man who was an active proponent of women’s rights and was a teacher and director of the Serbian High School for Girls established in Novi Sad, in 1874. The article describes the main function of the Young Women’s Associations as the preservation of the national language and identity. The young women from the associations would meet two times a week and read Serbian national literature or texts about the history of Serbs. The reason why these associations are considered important is the Hungarian culture that endangered Serbian culture, as the text laments and implies. The article begins with a glorification of culture and cultural progress, but also with a warning that for smaller and culturally weaker nations, the general cultural progress (meaning, the culture of the culturally “stronger” nations) might be dangerous. The text laments against foreign influences (implying Hungarian influences) in culture and everyday life, when the individual characteristics of certain nations are erased by the “foreign element.” The culture of the Serbian people is endangered, and the changes in Serbian culture include, among other things, the changes in color and shape of the national clothing in certain areas, as well as the change in the Christmas customs. The Young Women’s Associations in Velika Kikinda (Nagykikinda) and Novi Sad are established as an answer to these problems, and aimed at preserving the national identity. The goal of the association is to help the members cherish their friendship and stay nationally minded after they would get married. The text reminds the reader that the two organizations are established exactly 500 years after the defeat of the Serbian people in (the Battle of) Kosovo (1389), giving a “sparkle of hope for a more glorious future.” For responses to the establishments of these associations, see Anđelija Kuzmanovićeva, “Pozdrav devojačkim udruženjima [Salute to Young Women’s Associations],” Ženski svet, January 5, 1889.

TITLE: Polish Women and the War. DESCRIPTION: The archive of Jagiellonian Library in Cracow contains unpublished material of Zofia Daszyńska-Golińska (1866-1934) which she collected due to her task to represent the Polish women’s organization “Liga Kobiet (Women’s League)” at the international Women’s Peace Congress in The Hague in 1915. Daszyńska-Golińska was a socialist and feminist politician and a national economist (Nationalökonomin). She gained her PhD at the University of Zurich (Universität Zürich) in 1891 and taught at Berlin University (Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität, today Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin). She stood up for women’s right to vote and for the independence of Poland. She also was a representative of the eugenic movement in Poland especially between the wars. The “International Congress of Women, The Hague, 1915” called together representatives of women’s organizations from all over the world to prevent war in future. It established the “International Committee of Women for Permanent Peace”, since 1919 “Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom”. The “Liga Kobiet (Women’s League)” joined together active Polish women to mobilize them for the “Polish question”. The collection consists of 48 pp. of different handwritten papers and typescripts in German and Polish from Daszyńska-Goliǹska: records from meetings and policy papers about the positions of Polish women’s politics concerning independence, peace and the role of women during war times. In addition, there are some English, Polish and German announcements and protocols concerning the Congress and the Committee. They are not written by Daszyńska-Golińska. The typescript “Die Polinnen und der Krieg (Polish Women and the War)” and the handwritten manuscript “Berichtüber die Friedensarbeit der polnischen Frauen (Report on Peace Activities of Polish Women)”describe the activities of the Women’s League: collecting money for war literature, work in the military hospitals, cultural work to strengthen the national consciousness. It explains why though these activities supported the war they nevertheless belonged to the peace activities of the international women’s organizations: the importance of Polish independence for a new European order.
