Lětopis Abstract 2021 1: Palys, Piotr: Silesian Uprisings in the Sorbian Press

The article analyses the reports in the Sorbian press about Polish uprisings in Upper Silesia. These events were reported by two Upper Sorbian newspapers: Serbske Nowiny and Katolski Posoł. The materials posted there were characterized by journalistic professionalism. Attempts were made to maintain the greatest objectivity, using not only German sources of information, but also Polish, French and American. At the same time, sympathy for the Polish side was not hidden.
