The Issue of Popular Education in Selected Socio-Cultural Journals of the Kingdom of Poland in the 1905–1918 Period
Abstract
The issue of popular education in the Kingdom of Poland started to arise as early as the period 1858–1860. Analysing the socio-cultural journals of this period one can easily see numerous articles and correspondence calling for society to propagate popular education (establishment of libraries, educating school teachers, propagation of youth associations, education of women etc.). The editors of the analysed journals, as well as the authors writing on the subject, stated that if progress and well-being were to be introduced in the countryside the only way was through development of broad popular educational activity.
