Abstract

The introduction of autonomy in Galicia meant  getting certain privileges  for the Poles living in this part of Austria-Hungary. The most import ant of these benefits was the introduction of the Polish language as an official language and the foundation of the National School Council – an institution which took over Vienna’s responsibility for organizing the education. This new situation required modifications within the teaching process of the German language, the status of which underwent a dramatic change from the main means of communication to one of the many school subjects. Not surprisingly, the direction and content of these modifications have been discussed for years. These discussions can be followed today by analyzing the magazine “Museum” – at that time one of the few Polish publications with pedagogical -didactic profile, which dealt with the problems in secondary education.
