ALEKSANDER.
A variant form of Greek Alexandros
(q.v.), meaning "defender of man." (History of Christian
Names, Yonge, 1884). Usage: Albania (Aleksandër),
Poland, Russia (Алекса́ндр).
The family Barszczewski lives on
the limits of ethnographical Poland. The province of Grodno has a
mixed Polish, Lithuanian, and White Ruthenian population. As it lies
outside of the kingdom of Poland fixed in 1815, the efforts at
Russification have always been stronger and more continuous there; thus,
there is a certain influence of Russian culture. These two factors
explain certain differences in attitudes when compared with the normal
psychology of the Polish peasant. The infiltration of eastern
influences may perhaps be the reason for the marked dissolution of the
family relation which we find here. The father does not live with
the mother (No. 322), Stanisław quarrels with Józefa, with
Kryszczak, with Aleksander B., and breaks off relations almost
completely with his parents—all because of certain economic
misunderstandings. (The Polish Peasant in Europe and America,
Thomas-Znaniecki, 1918)
