Ludwik Abramowicz (1879–1939)

Ludwik Abramowicz-Niepokójczycki (5 July 1879 – 3 March 1939) was a Polish activist, bibliophile, publicist and editor. He was one of the major activists of the krajowcy faction, living in Wilno (now Vilnius, Lithuania). He was an editor of Polish language newspaper Przegląd Wileński (Wilno Review, 1912–1913, 1921–1939).

The newspaper Przegląd Wileński promoted krajowcy. Ludwik Abramowicz was an advocate of preserving all the lands of the former Grand Duchy of Lithuania as a single political entity, without the domination of any of the nationalities inhabiting it, above all Lithuanians, Poles, and Belarusians, but with equal rights to develop their own culture. After Abramowicz returned to Wilno in 1919, he actively promoted the idea that Vilnius Region should be transferred to Lithuania without tying Lithuania to union with Poland, although he suggested a cultural autonomy for Poles. The issues of this newspaper were confiscated many times by the Polish authorities.

Abramowicz held active correspondence with Jonas Šliūpas and other Lithuanian activists. He delivered a speech at Jonas Basanavičius' funeral.
