Czasopisma lokalne gminy Wierzchosławice w latach 1990-2009

Abstrakt

The subject of this article is a development of local press in Wierzchoslawice borough  between 1990 and 2009 on the basis of four the most significant periodicals, two  of which are published to this day. Apart from presenting theoretical issues about a local  press in Poland, the author describes Wierzchoslawice borough and the first attempts at  publishing press there. In the further part of the article more important titles were discussed  that are published locally since 1992. The young press of Wierzchoslawice looks  quite good against local press in Poland. Till this day there are two periodicals published  regularly: “Ziemia Wierzchoslawicka”, published by the Cultural Centre of  Wierzchoslawice Borough, and “Piast z Zagrody Wincentego Witosa” a periodical  closely connected with people’s movement, strongly developed in the homeland of a  man who was the Prime Minister three times, and is published by the Friends of Wincenty  Witos Museum Society. For many citizens of this borough they are the main  source of information regarding their surroundings. In this article you can also find  “Gminne Zwierciadlo”, the only private periodical published between 1994 – 2001, as  well as “Biuletyn Informacyjny” published by the Society of Cultivation the Knowledge  of the Home Army. The latter has been on the market a short time but its specific content  is interesting enough to have a stable place in the history of the local press of  Wierzchoslawice.
