Abstract

<p>Zły stan higieny miał negatywny wpływ na zdrowie i jakość życia społeczeństwa polskiego przełomu XIX i XX wieku. Rozwiązaniem mogącym wpłynąć na jego poprawę była promocja zdrowego trybu życia w wychowaniu młodych pokoleń Polaków. W zapale popularyzowania zdrowia na przełomie XIX i XX wieku publicyści na łamach czasopism podpowiadali, do jakiego miejsca jechać na kurację, z jakich zabiegów leczniczych skorzystać oraz przedstawiali możliwości spędzania wolnego czasu. Narzędziem do realizacji tej misji było balneologiczne czasopismo „Echa Zdrojowe” (1914), na łamach którego publikowano treści propagujące wśród społeczeństwa zasady higieny i wychowania zdrowotnego, szczególnie zachwalano walory uzdrowiska w Ciechocinku, promowano aktywne formy wypoczynku, doceniając wychowawczą rolę sportu. Dzięki doniesieniom prasowym wzrastała wiedza społeczna, dotycząca możliwości wakacyjnego wypoczynku, zwłaszcza tego zorganizowanego, czyli kolonii, mających na celu wyłącznie wypoczynek oraz poprawę stanu zdrowia.</p>

Highlights

  • An extremely important issue for every nation was and still is the issue of the broadly understood upbringing of the young generation

  • At the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century, it became obvious that educational activities among children and young people could be limited to the cognitive sphere, but had to include pro-healthy education, hygiene of life, work, and entertainment

  • Within the framework of the pro-health education of the whole society, carried out by journalists in the press, a lot of attention was paid to the hygiene and healthy lifestyle of children and the youth (Bednarz-Grzybek 2018, p. 418; Fijałek 1998, p. 65; Widy-Wirski 1959, p. 106)

Summary

INTRODUCTION

An extremely important issue for every nation was and still is the issue of the broadly understood upbringing of the young generation. At the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century, it became obvious that educational activities among children and young people could be limited to the cognitive sphere, but had to include pro-healthy education, hygiene of life, work, and entertainment. One of the periodicals that took the mission of pro-health education was the balneological „Echa Zdrojowe” (1914), issued in Włocławek This magazine is more than worthy presenting in this article because as ephemera (it was published from June to August of 1914) it is not very well known and has not undergone thorough thematic research. It typically cost 5 copecks per issue, but for richly illustrated numbers 13 and 14, covering 20 pages of text and 4 pages of advertisements, it was twice as expensive (Bednarz-Grzybek 2018, p. 133, 160, 198, 225, 227)
