Abstract

The two-hundredth anniversary of the First Partition of Poland is an appropriate time to review the recent Polish historiography of the Partitions of 1772, 1793, and 1795, which at first glance appear to have been treated as stepchildren. Since the founding of the Polish People's Republic twenty-nine years ago, not a single Polish monographic study has been devoted exclusively to the Partitions.

Lord, and the recent major monograph, The First Partition of Poland, by Herbert H. Kaplan, published in 1962, were written by foreigners.
