TITLE: Savka Subotić: 1834-1904. DESCRIPTION: A celebratory biography of Savka Subotić (1834-1918), on the occasion of her 70th birthday and 50 years of public life. Subotić was active in the women's movement in the Vojvodina, and also in Serbia and internationally. 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. Subotić was educated in Novi Sad (Újvidék), Timișoara (Temesvár, Temeswar) and Vienna. Her main focus was the education of girls, especially Serbian girls; Subotić initiated the establishment of the first Serbian language high schools for girls, established in Novi Sad, Vojvodina and Pančevo (Pancsova), military frontier/Vojvodina in 1874 and in Sombor (Zombor), Vojvodina in 1875. See also, Milica Tomić, “Naše više devojačke škole [Our high schools for girls],” Žena, January 6, 1911; and “Srpska Viša Devojačka Škola u Novom Sadu [The Serbian High School for Girls in Novi Sad],” Ženski svet, August 1913. In addition, she was active in educating Serbian women in the countryside, and she created a program of economic development for women who lived in the villages by popularizing and building the handicraft industry of the time. In 1867, Subotić established a women’s organization in Novi Sad, which in documents generated by the Serbian-speaking women’s movement in the Vojvodina is regularly described as the first women’s cooperative in Novi Sad. Subotić was a respected member of the Serbian community, but also well known in Austria-Hungary and in the international women’s movement. See also, Savka Subotić, “Part I and Part II [Part I: First Attempts of My Work in the Field of our National Domestic Industry, and Part II: On the Exhibitions in Pest and in Novi Sad],” in O našim narodnim tkaninama i rukotvorinama [On Our National Textiles and Handicrafts] (Novi Sad, 1904), 1–55 (55pp.); Savka Subotić, “Part IV [Part IV: On the Exhibition in Paris],” in O našim narodnim tkaninama i rukotvorinama [On Our National Textiles and Handicrafts] (Novi Sad, 1904), 79–95 (17pp.); and Savka Subotić, Žena na istoku i na zapadu [The woman in the East and in the West] (Novi Sad: Scientific Club, 1911). The biography 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).The editor of the journal was Arkadije Varađanin, a man who was an active proponent of women’s rights and who was a teacher and director of the Serbian High School for Girls established in Novi Sad in 1874. According to the article, the proof that the Serbian people had understood the importance of women’s education, one of the main questions of the nineteenth century, is the rising number of Serbian women’s schools in different places. Yet, the question remains how to make women’s education as relevant as possible for national purposes. Savka Subotić is then described as “a pioneer of women’s culture and progress” as she had started working publicly for the education of Serbian women fifty years earlier. As the text informs, the education of Serbian girls from more educated families either in German gymnasiums or by French gouvernants led to a more progressive attitude in the Serbian community, whereas the bad side of this kind of education was the loss of Serbian pride in the women educated in this way. Savka Subotić, after gaining her education in Novi Sad, Timisoara and Vienna, married a lawyer Jovan Subotić in 1851 and followed him through multiple cities of the Empire until his death in 1886. During these years, she was active in all the places she went to, pursuing intense conversation with Serbian women and trying to help them by sharing knowledge with them and by finding ways to make the women’s handicraft embroidery modern, popular and welcome on the European market. Savka Subotić was a very welcomed public speaker ever since the huge success on her first public speech in Zagreb during a teachers’ celebration in 1866. On this occasion, she received a certificate of recognition, which shows that “in those times there was a different spirit between Serbs and Croats,” which, “thank God,” adds the author, is returning again. Subotić was also appreciated by “the Germans,” as she held successful speeches about women’s issues in Vienna and Osijek (Eszék, Esseg). In the speeches, she argued for the merits of women in the progress of the nation. Her aim was different from what was going on in the West were women aspired “to political and social equality with men;” rather she always “emphasized the necessary education in the frames of the woman’s vocation in the home, nation and society.” She established the first women’s cooperative in Novi Sad, but “the Catholics” took over the organization. Serbian women then created another association, the Women’s Committee (Ženski odbor), which functioned as a women’s charity organization until the establishment of the Charitable Cooperative of Serbian Women from Novi Sad (Dobrotvorna zadruga Srpkinja Novosatkinja) in 1880. Documents generated by the Serbian-speaking women’s movement in the Vojvodina regularly describe the organization established in 1867 as the first women’s cooperative in Novi Sad. For more on the occasion of Savka Subotić’s 70th birthday, see Arkadije Varađanin, “Proslava 70-godišnjice gđe Savke dra Jovana Subotića [The celebration of the 70th birthday of Mrs. Savka Subotić],” Ženski svet, January 11, 1904.

TITLE: Report on the Journey to Amsterdam from [?] to December 14, Cracow, December 15, 1915. 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 report “Sprawozdanie z podróży do Amsterdamuod [?] do 14 grudnia (Report on the journal to Amsterdam from [?] to December 14)” on her journey to Amsterdam in December 1915 again stresses the message that Polish independence is a necessary condition for a European peace order. Daszyńska-Golińska reflects on her success to convince the other delegates of the Polish issue.

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 Daszynska-Goli?ska: 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 Daszynska-Golinska. The letter ‘Szanowny Zarzadzie (Kraków w listopadzie 1915) [Dear Board (Cracow, November, 1915)]’ is written by Aniola Krzyzanowska, secretaire, and Jadwiga Strikowa, chairwomen of the “Central Committee of Stars for the Legionaries in Cracow (Krakowie Komitet Centralny gwiazdkowy dla Legionistów)”, a female support committe for the paramilitary organization fighting for the independence of Poland. It was addressed to the ruling board of the Women’s League and announced the need of socks and towels for the fighters.
