TITLE: Women’s Peace Activities. DESCRIPTION: The archive of Jagiellonian Library in Cracow contains unpublished material of Zofia Daszyńska-Golińska (1866-1934) which she collected due to her task to represent the Polish women’s organization “Liga Kobiet (Women’s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 arepresentative 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 papersabout 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 “Z działalnościkobiet w sprawiepokoju (Women’s Peace Activities)” summarizes political activities of women from different European countries concerning the political order of Europe especially petitions on national questions. Daszyńska-Golińska mentioned among others Poland, Finland, and Serbia. KEYWORDS: Women and Practices/Cultures of Empire; Women Interacting with Women, Social Movements, and Other Actors Beyond Empire; Women and Nation within Empire; Women Challenging Empire; Peace and War; Social Reform and Political Activism; Political and Human Rights; Habsburg Empire; Poland; Finland; Serbia; The Hague; Europe

TITLE: St. Nicolas Institute in Trieste. DESCRIPTION: Marija Skrinjar (1857-1931) was a Slovene social worker, and one of the founders of the journal Slovenka, published in Trieste. The author of the article is one of the founders of Zavodsv. Nikolaja (St Nicholas Institute), was established in Trieste in 1898 for protection of unemployed servants in this multicultural city, the main port of the Habsburg Empire. Most of the servants cared for by the institute were of Slovene ethnic origin, but also of Croat, Serb, Czech, Slovak, Polish, and Malorussian ethnicity. During twenty years, the institute supported more than 22.000 servants, who were often at the mercy of their Italian-speaking employers, without their rights respected, and at the risk of being involved in prostitution and trafficking. After twenty years of existence, the institute became, Skrinjar claims, a real women’s Slavic Home in Trieste, a place of gathering and mutual support for working class women of Slavic ethnicity. The former clients would later became mothers who continued the upbringing of their children in the Slovene national spirit, thus resisting the assimilation of the Slovene population. Skrinjar emphasizes how the security of female youth leads to the safe and nationally conscious motherhood and thus ensures the future of the nation. Besides its Italian-speaking majority population, Trieste, the main city of the Austrian Littoral, had a considerable Slovene ethnic minority, coming from the immediate Slovene-populated hinterland, and from other Slovene lands, in search for employment. In the first decade of the 20th century, it became the biggest “Slovene” town, having more Slovene population than Ljubljana. The minority position within this rich merchant city lead the Slovene middle class to establish the institutions for the preservation of their ethnic language and identity. The first, and one of the most influential women’s publishing projects in Slovene language, the journal Slovenka (Slovene woman) was published in Trieste from 1897, serving as the springboard to many Slovene writers and social and feminist activists.

TITLE: Long Live Freedom, 1902. DESCRIPTION: Alexandra Papadopoulou (1867-1905) wrote short stories and worked as a teacher. During her residence in Bucharest, Romania, from 1899 to 1900 and 1902, she wrote a series of "patriotic" short stories, aiming to strengthen the national consciousness of the Greeks living in Romania. The stories reflect the intense nationalist conflicts in the Balkans as well as the educational discourse among teachers of this period. Both themes were apparent in the work of Papadopoulou, especially after 1896. Several of these short stories were published in the newspaper, Patris Voukourestiou, a Greek-language paper edited in Bucharest. In this story, the upmost duty of any Greek individual was to fight to liberate the enslaved Greek territories. The main character was a Greek widow from the Greek/Orthodox community in Istanbul. She had one son. Papadopoulou depicted the widow gazing at the Bosphorus and spotting a Greek-owned ship, flying the French flag. She was close enough to see some young Greeks of Istanbul board the ship, throw off the fez, and sing the Greek national anthem. The fez was an Ottoman hat, considered a "symbol of the Ottoman slavery." These young Greeks embarked to fight for the liberation of the enslaved Greek territories, namely to participate in the Macedonian struggle. The only son of the widow was among them. He left her a letter, stating that he "will fight for his homeland and for freedom." Even though she was left alone, the woman gave him her blessing, repeating the phrase heard from the ship, "Long live freedom." This story is one of four included in Women and Social Movements in Modern Empires.

TITLE: Zoe Arion to Emilia Dr. Rațiu, Bucharest, October 1905. DESCRIPTION: Letter sent by Zoe Arion from Bucharest (in the Romanian Kingdom) to Emilia Rațiu (in Sibiu/Nagyszeben/Hermannstadt, Kingdom of Hungary at the time). Zoe Arion was the daughter of Romanian Army General and diplomat Eracle Arion, likely some twenty years youger than her correspondent. Emilia Rațiu (1846-1929) was a Transylvanian Romanian nationalist activist and a frequent contributor to Familia magazine. She was married to Romanian National Party leader Ioan Rațiu. She was president of the Reunion of Romanian Women in the town of Turda, founder of the Women’s Reading Society in the same town in 1873, and an initiator of several other social reform and welfare activities. She led international mobilization efforts in favor of the claims of Transylvanian Romanians within Austria Hungary, especially following the arrest of Ioan Rațiu in 1894. ¶ This letter expresses the opinion that, despite the Emperor’s many faults, the monarch had begun to see the mistakes of the Hungarians. Arion articulates that Romanians had always been in favor of the dynasty (‘dynastic’) but that it was an inappropriate moment for Transylvanian politicians to become Kossuthists. If there were any need to join a party, socialists, with their platform of universal suffrage, might be more appealing. In 1905, when this letter was written, the Romanian National Party (RNP) in Transylvania had ceased its boycott of Hungarian parliamentary institutions and was pushing from within the Parliament for universal suffrage within the Kingdom of Hungary. (Of note, the RNP had debated whether to formally endorse women’s suffrage at its January 1905 congress, finally deciding against the issue with some members expressing support for the cause.) The RNP was probably debating at the time the alliances it should forge within the Parliament. During 1905, workers, especially in the Austrian half of the Dual Monarchy, mobilized by a popular socialist movement, were demanding suffrage in mass demonstrations and through other forms of participation. Arion’s entreaty towards an alliance with the socialists functioned in this context. The Kosshutism mentioned in the letter as a less appealing alternative to the support of socialists refers to the ideological legacy of 1848 revolutionary Kossuth Lajos (1802-1894), a symbol of the more radical patriotism of the Hungarian Revolution and a hero of Hungarian centralizers. The brief mention of suffrage politics links with how a Member of Hungarian Parliament, Stefan Cicio-Pop, participated in 1913 in the International Woman Suffrage Alliance (IWSA) Congress in Budapest and later supported a bill for universal suffrage. However, this letter does not mention women’s suffrage explicitly, and is likely to be implicitly referring to male suffrage without property qualifications when discussing “universal suffrage.” On women’s suffrage and Transylvanian Romanian nationalism, see also Helena Densusianu, “Helena Densusianu to Emilia Dr. Rațiu, 10 March 1870” (Letter, Făgăraș, March 10, 1870), 844/1870, Fond 1246 Personal Fond Dr. Ioan Ratiu, ff. 1-2, Romania. Arhivele Nationale. Arhivele Nationale Istorice Centrale Bucharest; and Eleonora Lemény, “Indreptatire politica femeilor! [Legitimate Women’s Policy!],” Adevarul-Glasul Poporului, December 2, 1918. ¶ This document captures with unusual directness Transylvanian Romanian positioning vis-à-vis the Habsburg dynasty and within the Austro-Hungarian Empire (a stance taken since the 1848-1849 Hungarian Revolution). The letter exemplifies pragmatic politics and organizing, and places a young upper-class educated woman such as Arion in the middle of the “male sphere” of parliamentary political strategizing in both Transylvania and the Romanian Kingdom. For example, it is interesting to note that the presumed aversion towards socialist politics among the Transylvanian Romanian middle class and within the Romanian National Party could be conceived as surmountable, in the context of the struggle for universal suffrage. Finally, the topics and rhetorical features of this letter offer a counterweight to the maternalist, “women’s sphere,” and the highly affective style encountered in other politically active women’s public rhetoric. Compare this with Maria Baiulescu, “Cuvantul de deschidere rostit de doamna Maria B. Baiulescu, presedinta Uniunii Femeilor Romane din Brasov la I-ul Congres al Reuniunilor de Femei din Ungaria, tinut la Brasov in zilele de 3-5 Iunie 1913 [Opening Speech Given by Mrs. Maria B. Baiulescu, President of the Union of Romanian Women in Brasov to the Ist Congress of the Women’s Reunions held in Brasov between 3-5 June 1913]” (Speech, Brașov, June 1913), MS 1954, f. 36, “George Baritiu” County Library Special Collections, “George Baritiu” County Library Special Collections. The Arion letter contributes to a more complex image of the reasons and tactics of nationalist mobilization among women involved in the Transylvanian Romanian national cause and underscores the gap that existed between private discourse and public rhetoric among politicized women. KEYWORDS: Women and Institutions of Empire; Hungarian Parliament; Women and Practices/ Cultures of Empire; Imperial Identity; Women Interacting with Women, Social Movements, and Other Actors Beyond Empire; Women and Nation within Empire; Women and Struggle Between Nations in the Empire; Social Reform and Political Activism; Political Parties and Other Male Dominated Organizations; Socialism; Political and Human Rights; Nationality Rights; Human Rights, Suffrage; Habsburg Empire; Kossuth Lajos/ Louis Kossuth.

TITLE: Information: Journal of the Social Mission Society and the Cooperating Catholic Associations. Circular Letter. Supplement of Information] vol. 3, no. 8, October 1914. DESCRIPTION: This letter is part of a selection of journals documenting the history of the Hungarian-speaking women’s movement in the Hungarian Kingdom in the Habsburg Monarchy. Értesítő [Information] was published from 1912 to 1914. All issues available in the Országos Széchényi Könyvtár [Hungarian National Library] are included in this digital archive. The journal was renamed A keresztény nő [The Christian Woman] in 1915 and published until after the end of the Habsburg Monarchy. The Social Mission Society, one of the most active and innovative organizations among the Catholic women’s groups, evolved in the years 1908-1910. Értesítő reported on the activities and the various institutions of the Social Mission Society, and the activities of other Catholic groups. The work of the Catholic organizations and groups focused on educational betterment and rescue (patronázs) work for girls in schools, prisons and other institutions, as well as social welfare work. The Social Mission Society began to engage in systematic training of its members for social work, contributing to the professionalization of social work in Hungary. Értesítő regularly reported on the National Catholic Association for the Protection of Women (Országos Kath. Nővédő Egyesület), and the National Catholic Women’s Association for Betterment and Rescue Work (Országos Kath. Női Patronage-Egyesület). Értesítő also published poems, songs, and edifying literature, as well as more general writings, often by important Catholic authorities, on Catholic social thinking in relation to various social and spiritual agendas. The journal constitutes a key source of information on the Catholic women’s movement in Hungary and its international context.

TITLE: Information: Journal of the Social Mission Society and the Cooperating Catholic Associations, Vol. 3, No. 1. DESCRIPTION: This journal issue is part of a selection of journals documenting the history of the Hungarian-speaking women’s movement in the Hungarian Kingdom in the Habsburg Monarchy. Értesítő [Information] was published from 1912 to 1914. All issues available in the Országos Széchényi Könyvtár [Hungarian National Library] are included in this digital archive. The journal was renamed A keresztény nő [The Christian Woman] in 1915 and published until after the end of the Habsburg Monarchy. The Social Mission Society, one of the most active and innovative organizations among the Catholic women’s groups, evolved in the years 1908-1910. Értesítő reported on the activities and the various institutions of the Social Mission Society, and the activities of other Catholic groups. The work of the Catholic organizations and groups focused on educational betterment and rescue (patronázs) work for girls in schools, prisons and other institutions, as well as social welfare work. The Social Mission Society began to engage in systematic training of its members for social work, contributing to the professionalization of social work in Hungary. Értesítő regularly reported on the National Catholic Association for the Protection of Women (Országos Kath. Nővédő Egyesület), and the National Catholic Women’s Association for Betterment and Rescue Work (Országos Kath. Női Patronage-Egyesület). Értesítő also published poems, songs, and edifying literature, as well as more general writings, often by important Catholic authorities, on Catholic social thinking in relation to various social and spiritual agendas. The journal constitutes a key source of information on the Catholic women’s movement in Hungary and its international context.
