V originále

Traditionally, the historiography of Poland focused on the ways in which the émigrés and emigrants from the foreign-occupied lands campaigned for their nations’ liberation from abroad. The “nation” to be liberated was first defined in political terms by the aristocratic Polish elites, which comprised the first wave of emigration, and their definition did not always accommodate the economic and personal aspirations of the middle and lower classes. The liberation of the Czech and Slovak lands from the Habsburg rule and German aristocracy took a different path that involved mobilization of different social strata. However, one common denominator in the liberation of Polish, Czech and Slovak societies was en masse emigration to Western Europe and North America in the decades leading to World War I, which often came with externalized nationalism. Taking into consideration the questions of class, colonialism and ethnicity, this panel of historians of art and politics will explore both “old” and “new” ideas about liberation among Polish and Czechoslovak emigrants in the West. One way of connecting with the homeland for Central European diasporas in the USA was via performing traditions and folk culture. The paper focuses on the way Czech and Slovak emigres, and women especially, used folk art as an emancipatory tool to increase their visibility and confidence in American society and among other European and non-European minorities.
