TITLE: Part I: To Each Their Own, in Our Endeavours. DESCRIPTION: This selection is the first part of a larger brochure titled, Our Endeavours. The brochure published by Ženský klub český [The Czech Women's Club] aims to persuade Czechs, especially Czech women, to buy Czech products and thereby support the Czech industry. The association Ženský klub český was founded by Czech speaking women’s activists in Prague, Bohemia in 1903. It supported women’s emancipation and functioned as women’s social and educational centre till 1938. The brochure was written by one of its main representatives, liberal feminist and teacher Františka Plamínková (1875-1942) in collaboration with another liberal feminist and teacher Marie Tůmová (1867-1926). The text is written from the perspective of Czech economic nationalism. It assesses the current state of the Czech industry in the context of the multinational Monarchy, analyses in detail the reasons why it is necessary to support the Czech economy. It outlines the methods of raising the awareness of the Czech public in this matter and names possible forms of support. The text shows that nationalism was an integral part of Czech liberal feminist activism. The brochure presents the Czech nation as small nation weakened by two hundred years of subjection. According to the text the economy can serve both national oppression and nation-building and the national emancipation. The support of the national industry is presented as a national duty. The brochure also refers to the link between national consciousness and women's emancipation. As it points out, women, the main purchasers, are often criticized for national unconsciousness by those who at the same time reject the concept of women’s emancipation. According to the text, only if women have equal access to education, they will be able to work for the national interest. KEYWORDS: Women and Practices/ Cultures of Empire; Women and Nation within Empire; Women and Nation-Building; Women and Relationship Between Nations in the Empire; Women and Nation within Empire; Women Challenging Empire; Economic Nationalism; Social Reform and Political Activism; Habsburg Empire; Cisleithania

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).

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 in Hungarian. Grailich explains why she is late delivering her articles, and encourages Ladányi to turn directly to Adelheid Popp – leading representative of the (German-)Austrian social democratic women’s movement – [in Vienna] with her request with regard to the Arbeiterinnenzeitung (‘Woman Workers’ Journal’), the journal of the Austrian movement. Grailich explains why she takes side with the Austrians’ position with regard to children’s education as opposed to the German view, and she expresses her hope that Ladányi will not take offence at her expressing her views so freely, adding that she is not always convinced to be right. As she signs the letter with “A Comrade’s greeting (Elvtársi üdvözlettel) E Grailich” she adds: “I spell my name with ai.” KEYWORDS: Women and Nation within Empire; Relations Between Women of Different Nationalities; Women and National Languages; Empire and Feminism; Social Reform and Political Activism; Socialism; Socialist Women; Habsburg Empire; Hungary; Slovakia; Austria

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. Ladányi this time writes from Gries, today part of Bozen in Southern Tyrol, today Italy, where she spends some time. There she regularly meets Adelheid Popp, yet because of her own health problems she can do so only every 3rd or 4th day. They mention Ladányi often and will jointly send a postcard. Popp (1869-1939) was a leading representative of the (German-)Austrian social democratic women’s movement. Grailich reports about a text to be written presumably for Nőmunkás, and discusses a bilingual (Hungarian and German) publication prepared in Budapest for the Women’s Day, and the planned activities in Bratislava and smaller communities. She also discusses financial issues.

In this letter, Grailich complains about her loss of fluency in Hungarian. She discusses the possibilities and plans for – cautious – activities on the occasion of May 1, and the return of enthusiasm in relation to Women’s Day, both with reference to different locations within the Habsburg Empire, and concludes: “It would be so wonderful if there was a big international demonstration on May 1 in all countries for peace.” KEYWORDS: Women and Nation within Empire; Relations Between Women of Different Nationalities; Women and National Languages; Social Reform and Political Activism; Political Parties and Other Male Dominated Organizations; Socialism; Socialist Women; International Women’s Day; Habsburg Empire; Hungary; Slovakia; Austria; Vienna

TITLE: E [Elsa] Grailich to Szeréna Ladányi [Mrs. Buchinger], Poszony, 18 February 1914. 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.

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 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.

TITLE: E [Elsa] Grailich to Szeréna Ladányi [Mrs. Buchinger], Poszony, 24 February 1914. 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 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 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.
