  • Dziennik narodowy (Chicago, Ill.)
    History, Philosophy, and Newspaper Library  ·   Digital Special Collections
    Description
    Nearly forgotten today, Dziennik Narodowy ("National Daily News") was considered one of the most important newspapers of the Polish community in Chicago. Established on December 4, 1898, by members of the Polish Nationalist Party, Dziennik Narodowy remained crucial to the political education of Polish Americans until its demise in September 1923. After one year with the paper, Dziennik Narodowy's first editor, John J. Chrzanowski, resigned in favor of Michal Sadowski, who remained editor until April 1900. From October 11, 1899 to December 1899 during Sadowski's administration,the printing of Dziennik Narodowy ceased. In later years, F.H. Jablonski, Frank Wolowski, K. Barski, Filip Ksycki, and M.S. Dunin served as editors. Under the editorship of Frank Wolowski, Dziennik Narodowy printed a special page of Glos Polek (The Voice of Polish Women), the official organ for the Polish Women's Alliance of America. As editor of both Dziennik Narodowy and Glos Polek, Wolowski helped sustain Glos Polek, of which his wife Lucja Wolowska was an officer, during a period of financial stress. From 1903 to 1910, Dziennik Narodowy featured a special edition of Glos Polek. Since 1910, Glos Polek has continued as a weekly and, since 1994, a monthly publication, maintaining its goal to sustain the voices of the Polish-American women. Largely devoted to cultural and literary matters, Dziennik Narodowy became a semi-official organ of the Polish-American relief organization, the National Department (Wydzial Narodowy), which was active during World War I. Dziennik Narodowy's main rival, was the Chicago newspaper Dziennik Zwiazkowy (Alliance Daily News). Established in 1908, it too was associated with the National Department. Because of its affiliation with the Polish Nationalist Party, Dziennik Narodowy adopted a more secular position, contesting the influence of the Catholic Church within the Polish community in the Midwest. Its adversarial stance set Dziennik Narodowy apart from other immigrant newspapers. On June 9, 1897, before Dziennik Narodowy began publication, another Polish-language newspaper, Dziennik Chicagoski (Polish Daily News) warned that "Dziennik Narodowy ['s]...sole purpose will be to 'kill the parochial daily' ...and check the influence of the Polish Catholic press in America." Despite their political differences, Dziennik Narodowy was eventually absorbed by its rival.Today, Dziennik Zwiazkowy has become the longest running and only remaining Polish newspaper published in Chicago.

    The digitized content of the Eames family letters consists of ten letters primarily written by Stephen Eames of Knox County, Illinois to family and friends in Vermont and New Hampshire. Stephen Eames purchased land in Walnut Creek, Knox County, Illinois in 1839. Here he began a farm and built a log cabin. He kept in frequent touch with his family on the East Coast and updated them about his farm and health. The digitized content contains letters primarily written by Stephen Eames to family and friends regarding starting a farm, prices of crops, population growth in the area, and personal health. Eames writes about the advantages and disadvantages to farming in the area such as soil quality, fresh air, wild animals, and sickness along surrounding rivers. He describes Mormon settlements and his thoughts on them, as well as the founding of the Bishop Hill Swedish colony nearby. Other letters are written by Eames’ nephew, Darius Plumb, and his niece, Eveline Eames, to family members in New England. Darius Plumb writes from St. Louis just before his departure to the California gold fields.

  • Early Printed Editions and Manuscripts of Music
    Music and Performing Arts Library  ·   Digital Special Collections
    Description
    The music scores in this collection include manuscripts and first or early published editions of works from the late 18th and early 19th centuries held in the Music and Performing Arts Library Special Collections. These manuscripts and first/early editions are important resources for scholars researching the origins of musical works. In many cases, there is no extant autograph manuscript and the first printed and published edition serve as the primary source for the work. These materials are indexed in the Répertoire International des Sources Musicales (RISM) catalog (https://rism.info/), which is a tool that aims to comprehensively document extant musical sources worldwide. The University of Illinois was one of the initial contributors to RISM from its formation in 1952. We now have over 1,700 records in RISM, over 300 of which are unica or unique items. The first phase of this digital collection will include these unique items. Note that the majority of University of Illinois Items described in RISM dating from 1800 and earlier are held in the University's Rare Book and Manuscript Library.
