Ukrainian National Movement in Galicia
Study of the development of the Ukrainian national movement in Galicia during the early period of Austrian rule by the Polish historian Jan Kozik (1934-79).

The Idea of Galicia
Galicia was created at the first partition of Poland in 1772 and disappeared in 1918. Yet, in slightly over a century, the idea of Galicia came to have meaning for both the peoples who lived there and the Habsburg government that ruled it.
