NOTES


CHAPTER I. NAROD


i. Not surprisingly, almost all the standard western studies of Nationalism either take a
hostile stance towards Poland, relegate it to a category of 'secondary status', or else
ignore it altogether. See Carlton Y. Hayes, The Historical Evolution of Modern
Nationalism (New York, 1931); Elie Khe-dourie, Nationalism (London, 1960);
F. Ponteil, L'eveil des nationalites et le mouvement liberal, 1815-48 (Paris, 1960);
Anthony D. Smith, Theories of Nationalism (London, 1971). The most accessible intro-
duction to Polish Nationalism in English is by Peter Brock, 'Polish Nationalism', in
Nationalism in Eastern Europe, ed. P. Sugar, I. Lederer (Seattle, 1969), 310-72. See also
Konstantin Symmons-Symonolewicz, Nationalist Movements: a comparative view
(Meadvill, Pa., 1970). Lord Acton's essay on 'Nationality' (1862), which maintained that
modern Nationalism began with the Partitions of Poland, is printed in his History of
Freedom and other essays (London, 1907). See also G. E. Fasnacht, Lord Acton on
Nationality and Socialism (London, 1949).
