TITLE: E [Elsa] Grailich to Emanuel Buchinger [Manó Buchinger], 20 March 1913. DESCRIPTION: One of twelve surviving letters, dated between 1912 and 1915, from Elsa Grailich (1880-1969) included in this digital archive and kept in the papers attributed to Mrs. Buchinger Szerena Ladányi (1884-1940) and her husband, Manó Buchinger. The papers are kept in the Institute of Political History, Archives Division (Politikatörténeti Intézet Levéltára) in Budapest, Hungary. Grailich was active in the social democratic movement in Pressburg/Pozsony/Bratislava. According to one biography she founded, together with Maria Pocisk [Poczisk], the Women’s Section of the Workers Education Association ‘Vorwärts’ (Arbeiterbildungsverein ‘Vorwärts’) in Bratislava in 1909. Grailich championed better education and women’s rights. Ladányi was involved in the social democratic women’s movement in Budapest, Hungary since 1905. In the years before and during the Great War, she was a key representative of the social democratic women’s movement associated with the Social-democratic Party of Hungary (Magyarországi Szociáldemokrata Párt, MSZDP). She married Manó Buchinger, a leading social democratic politician, in 1910. This digital archive also features six letters from Auguste Fickert (1855-1910), an important representative of the women’s movement in Austria, to Elsa Grailich, dated between 1907 and 1910. Fickert pro-actively cultivated contacts with women belonging to the socialist camp. Taken together, the letters contribute to our knowledge on the cooperation and relationships between socialist women and their allies across the Habsburg Empire, different languages, and geographical affiliations. This “open letter,” written in German, addresses “Emanuel Buchinger.” Grailich explains that she cannot do party work, signing “With kind party-greetings” (Mit freundlichem Parteigruß).

This digital archive also features six letters from Auguste Fickert (1855-1910), an important representative of the women’s movement in Austria, to Elsa Grailich, dated between 1907 and 1910. Fickert pro-actively cultivated contacts with women belonging to the socialist camp. Taken together, the letters contribute to our knowledge on the cooperation and relationships between socialist women and their allies across the Habsburg Empire, different languages, and geographical affiliations. This letter is written on the stationary of the Women’s Section of the Workers Education Association ‘Vorwärts’, which gives the name in Hungarian and German (‘ELŐRE’ pozsonyi munkás önképzőegyesület NŐI SZAKOSZTÁLYA; FRAUENSEKTION des Arbeiterbildungsvereins ‘Vorwärts’) in Bratislava. Grailich relates that “we cannot use for Women’s Day the Austrian leaflets, we still have them to be produced here,”, and she will send to Ladányi the number of leaflets she would like to receive. Grailich expresses her hope that Comrade Buchinger [Manó Buchinger], when visiting the party meeting on Sunday, that at least he, given that Ladányi won’t join him, “could spend at least 1 to 2 hours with us ... since I have numerous things related to the movement to discuss with him, in particular with regard to the international meeting.” Adelheid Popp will travel to Berlin in March for “the meeting of the preparation committee of the international women’s meeting”. These remarks in all likelihood refer to third International Socialist Women’s Conference of the Socialist Women’s International within the Socialist International, which was planned to be held in Vienna later in 1914. The preparatory meeting was indeed held in Berlin on 20 April 1914, with Adelheid Popp (1869-1939) and Anna Boschek (1874-1954), leading representatives of the (German-)Austrian social democratic women’s movement, attending. Grailich also relates that during their joint stay in Gries, today part of Bozen in Southern Tyrol, today Italy, a “truly amicable relationship has developed” between Adelheid Popp and her.

Grailich is in enthusiastic mood, because she indeed had met Comrade (Manó) Buchinger in Bratislava, and he has promised that next time he travels to Vienna he will travel together with his wife who will then stay in Bratislava with the women Comrades. Grailich has come to know that the (socialist women’s) movement makes good progress “also her with us” (presumably in Hungary) and that “a little upswing is to be expected since the Comrades and the party leadership itself begin to develop interest” in the movement, and it is in this context they (in Bratislava) have been able to order more brochures. “[A]pparently the Magyar (magyar nyelvű) Comrades at this point after all feel a bit ashamed, and this will be wholesome because in this way they will endeavor to have at least their wives enrolled into our organization. With the Slovakians (a tótoknál) so much good work is done already, I hope that with time they too will join us (hozzánk csatlakoznak).” KEYWORDS: Empire and Feminism; Empire and Internationalism; Women and Nation within Empire; Relations Between Women of Different Nationalities; Women and National Languages; Social Reform and Political Activism; Multi-Ethnic Participation in Social Movements; Political Parties and Other Male Dominated Organizations; Socialism; Socialist Women; International Women’s Day; Habsburg Empire; Hungary; Slovakia; Austria; Lina Thirring

Taken together, the letters contribute to our knowledge on the cooperation and relationships between socialist women and their allies across the Habsburg Empire, different languages, and geographical affiliations. In this letter addressed to “Dear Woman-Comrade” (in all likelihood Szerena Ladányi), Grailich tells that she will soon send articles on the practical work and plans to write –“possibly in English” – for the congress-issue, too. “We have registered for the congress in private capacity.” These remarks refer likely to the upcoming seventh congress of the International Woman Suffrage Alliance (IWSA) in Budapest, 15-21 June 1913, and to the journal Nőmunkás, the social democratic women’s journal published in Budapest. Grailich also relates that she wants to write about the drawbacks of the Hungarian [state-run] child protection system. Comrade Thirring [Lina Thirring] conveys her gratitude regarding the letter received from Ladányi’s “estimable husband” [Manó Buchinger], the “instructions are very valuable for us.” The letter closes in an optimistic tone regarding party and trade union work.

Taken together, the letters contribute to our knowledge on the cooperation and relationships between socialist women and their allies across the Habsburg Empire, different languages, and geographical affiliations. In this letter, Grailich, writing in Hungarian, promises to write the biography of Bebel based on what was published in Arbeiterzeitung [the (German-)Austrian social democratic journal, presumably for Nőmunkás; Bebel died 13 August 1913]. She is preparing for a difficult speech in which she will directly confront the Hungarian authorities responsible for the various agenda related to child protection, and quotes in German Adelheid Popp’s words as encouraging her. Popp (1869-1939) was a leading representative of the (German-) Austrian social democratic women’s movement.

DESCRIPTION: One of twelve surviving letters, dated between 1912 and 1915, from Elsa Grailich (1880-1969) included in this digital archive and kept in the papers attributed to Mrs. Buchinger Szerena Ladányi (1884-1940) and her husband, Manó Buchinger. The papers are kept in the Institute of Political History, Archives Division (Politikatörténeti Intézet Levéltára) in Budapest, Hungary. Grailich was active in the social democratic movement in Pressburg/Pozsony/Bratislava. According to one biography she founded, together with Maria Pocisk [Poczisk], the Women’s Section of the Workers Education Association ‘Vorwärts’ (Arbeiterbildungsverein ‘Vorwärts’) in Bratislava in 1909. Grailich championed better education and women’s rights. Ladányi was involved in the social democratic women’s movement in Budapest, Hungary since 1905. In the years before and during the Great War, she was a key representative of the social democratic women’s movement associated with the Social-democratic Party of Hungary (Magyarországi Szociáldemokrata Párt, MSZDP). She married Manó Buchinger, a leading social democratic politician, in 1910. This digital archive also features six letters from Auguste Fickert (1855-1910), an important representative of the women’s movement in Austria, to Elsa Grailich, dated between 1907 and 1910. Fickert pro-actively cultivated contacts with women belonging to the socialist camp. Taken together, the letters contribute to our knowledge on the cooperation and relationships between socialist women and their allies across the Habsburg Empire, different languages, and geographical affiliations. In this letter addressed to “Dear Woman-Comrade” (in all likelihood Szerena Ladányi), Grailich discusses, among other things, issues related to a forthcoming congress, in all likelihood the seventh congress of the International Woman Suffrage Alliance (IWSA), Budapest 15-21 June: “I return … Comrade Popp’s [Adelheid Popp (1869-1939), leading representative of the (German-)Austrian social democratic women’s movement]. I understand that no representatives will be sent on behalf of the party or the organization, but it will not be objected if somebody participates in private capacity and at his/her own expenses, in particular [since we are] still playing such a nameless role in the international movement as we do. Otherwise Comrade Kalmár did let me know that I am delegated on behalf of the ‘Volkstimme’ as ‘Reporter’, of course at my own expense.” This reference most likely is to the German-language social democratic journal Westungarische Volksstimme, edited by Heinrich Kalmár. KEYWORDS: Women and Nation within Empire; Relations Between Women of Different Nationalities; Women and National Languages; Empire and Feminism; Social Reform and Political Activism; Multi-Ethnic Participation in Social Movements; Political Parties and Other Male Dominated Organizations; Socialism; Socialist Women; Habsburg Empire; Hungary; Slovakia; Austria

The papers are kept in the Institute of Political History, Archives Division (Politikatörténeti Intézet Levéltára) in Budapest, Hungary.

Taken together, the letters contribute to our knowledge on the cooperation and relationships between socialist women and their allies across the Habsburg Empire, different languages, and geographical affiliations. Obviously in response to the response of Manó Buchinger to her earlier letter on 20 March 1913, Grailich underlines her decision that under the given circumstances she will not do party work. She now signs with “Best regards” (Bestens grüßend).

This digital archive also features six letters from Auguste Fickert (1855-1910), an important representative of the women’s movement in Austria, to Elsa Grailich, dated between 1907 and 1910. Fickert pro-actively cultivated contacts with women belonging to the socialist camp. Taken together, the letters contribute to our knowledge on the cooperation and relationships between socialist women and their allies across the Habsburg Empire, different languages, and geographical affiliations. This letter is written on the stationary of the Women’s Section of the Workers Education Association ‘Vorwärts’, which gives the name in Hungarian and German (‘ELŐRE’ pozsonyi munkás önképzőegyesület NŐI SZAKOSZTÁLYA; FRAUENSEKTION des Arbeiterbildungsvereins ‘Vorwärts’) in Bratislava. Grailich is scandalized at the fact that A nő (Woman), the journal of the Feminist Association (Feministák Egyesülete) in Hungary has published an article by the British socialist Keir Hardie. “This is incompatibility.” She therefore has translated Róza Schwimmer’s article published in the same issue, and sent it via Adelheid Popp (1869-1939), leading representative of the (German-)Austrian social democratic women’s movement, to Hardie so that he gets to know with which company he has been involved in A nő. Schwimmer (1877-1948) was a leading representative of liberal-progressive feminism in Hungary. Grailich expresses her hope that Ladányi approves of her action. She then briefly discusses financial matters and the positive evolvement of the division of labor within her organization.

TITLE: Paul Wittich to Genosse Buchinger [Manó Buchinger], Pressburg, 20 June 1917. DESCRIPTION: Paul Wittich was an important representative of the social democratic movement in Pressburg/Pozsony/Bratislava kept in the papers of Mrs. Buchinger Szerena Ladányi (1884-1940) and her husband, Manó Buchinger in the Institute of Political History, Archives Division (Politikatörténeti Intézet Levéltára) in Budapest, Hungary. Ladányi was a key representative of the social democratic women’s movement in Budapest, Hungary. Wittich addresses Buchinger because he had a response from Ladányi to two letters he had sent informing her that the female tobacco workers of Pressburg had begun to organize. He had asked Ladányi to send a woman Comrade from Budapest to give information on the conditions of tobacco workers and to send material related to Nőmunkás, the social democratic women’s journal. Experiencing this “indifference,” the Pressburg workers were upset, threatening to withhold the membership fee. Therefore, Wittich asked Buchinger to make things happen.
