Abstract

Ovaj diplomski rad bavi se istraživanjem uloge poljskog pozitivizma u napretku emancipacije žena tijekom kasnog 19. i ranog 20. stoljeća. Podijeljen je na dva dijela. Prvi, teorijski dio, započinje definiranjem i smještanjem poljskog pozitivizma u širi povijesni i politički kontekst podijeljene Poljske. Ističe se zalaganje pozitivista za obrazovanje, gospodarski napredak i društvene reforme. U drugom dijelu istražuju se ključni poljski časopisi toga perioda, poput Bluszcza i Świta. U radu se ističe kako je tisak služio kao platforma za zagovaranje obrazovanja žena, njihovih zakonskih prava i sudjelovanje u javnom životu. Nadalje, analizira književna djela istaknutih pozitivističkih pisaca, poput Elize Orzeszkowe i Bolesława Prusa, koji su portretirali snažne ženske likove i bavili se pitanjima ravnopravnosti spolova. U radu se zaključuje da je poljski pozitivizam odigrao ključnu ulogu u postavljanju temelja za emancipaciju žena u Poljskoj, s naglaskom na obrazovanje koje je ključno za osnaživanje žena i društveni doprinos.

Abstract (english)

This thesis explores the role of Polish Positivism in advancing women's emancipation during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It is divided into two parts. First, theoretical part, begins by defining and situating Polish Positivism within the broader historical and political context of partitioned Poland. It outlines the Positivist emphasis on practical education, economic progress, and social reforms. In the second part, key Polish magazines of the era are examined, such as Bluszcz and Świt. The thesis discusses how these publications served as platforms advocating for women's education, legal rights, and participation in public life. Furthermore, it analyzes literary works by prominent Positivist writers, such as Eliza Orzeszkowa and Bolesław Prus, who portrayed strong female characters and addressed issues of gender equality. The thesis concludes that Polish Positivism played a pivotal role in laying the groundwork for women's emancipation in Poland, highlighting the belief that education was essential for women's empowerment and societal contribution.
