The Education of Rural Women in West Prussia as Seen by Anastazja Pospieszyłowa (born Czarlińska) (1801–1878)

Summary/Abstract: One of the most outstanding Polish women actively involved in educating the Polish population (mainly girls) in West Prussia in the 19th century was Anastazja Pospieszyłowa (born Czarlińska) (1801–1878), a teacher, commentator and social activist. This article presents her biography and activity as well as her views on rural women’s education, which were presented in the 1950s and the 1960s in the Polish local press (“Nadwiślanin”, “Gazeta Toruńska”). In her views, the following ideas were particularly visible: organic work of noble girls with rural girls, associations advocating the education of women of lower social strata and the launch of a fund for their education, as well as the initiative of creating a school for rural girls.
