Contrary to communist propaganda, the problem was raft and sometimes was “openly mentioned in the official political agenda.” The analysis focuses on non-fiction (essays, autobiographies) of the writers of Jewish descent, who spent their childhood in the Soviet Union: Jelina Czyżewa, Siergiej Gombrowski, Jewgienij Bunimowicz, and Lew Rubinstein. Yet, the Jewish issues are not the main preoccupation of their works as they consider themselves “primarily as representatives of Russian intelligentsia”. 2021-01-01T00:00:00Z http://hdl.handle.net/11320/12002 Tytuł: Opisywanie Zagłady w Miasteczku Bełz Agnieszki Osieckiej Autorzy: Wosnitzka-Kowalska, Małgorzata Abstrakt: The article looks into the problem of remembering the Holocaust in the context of lullaby as a genre of different origins. It stems predominantly from the intimate relation with a child, is deeply rooted in folk music, and still functions in popular culture. As an example, the author chooses Agnieszka Osiecka’s “Miasteczko Bełz,” which is interpreted in the context of the 19th- and 20th-century poetry and art. 2021-01-01T00:00:00Z http://hdl.handle.net/11320/12001 Tytuł: Wydarta z niepamięci. Pani Stefa Magdaleny Kicińskiej Autorzy: Miklas-Frankowski, Jan Abstrakt: The author analyzes Magdalena Kicińska’s Pani Stefa (Wydawnictwo Wołowiec 2015), the biography of Stefania Wilczyńska (1886–1942), the closest associate of Janusz Korczak, with whom she ran the Orphanage at 92 Krochmalna Street, and for whom she often substituted when he was away. They both died in Treblinka. Wilczyńska has remained in the shadow of Korczak until the publication of the poet and writer Magdalena Kicińska (born in 1987 in Warsaw). 2021-01-01T00:00:00Z http://hdl.handle.net/11320/12000 Tytuł: Dziecko Holocaustu jako bohater-narrator w Królestwie Szczepana Twardocha Autorzy: Żurek, Sławomir Jacek Abstrakt: One of the narrators in Szczepan Twardoch’s novel Królestwo [Kingdom] is a Jewish child, David Shapiro. In the first-person narration, David relates his experience of Warsaw as a collapsing Polish-Jewish kingdom of his father Jakub, a boxer and gangster. First, he portrays his peaceful childhood before 1939. After the outbreak of WWII, he tells the story of his family being evicted from their house by the German Nazis, of the ghetto and its everyday life, of the arrest during the Great Action in August 1942, the transport in cattle wagons to the extermination camp in Treblinka, and his escape from the speeding train. Through the narrative, the reader observes the process of accelerated maturation of the narrator during the Holocaust, along with his inner destruction. The boy belongs to the category of victims called the children of the Holocaust. The article discusses subsequent stages of the boy’s degradation: from his isolation in the ghetto, his depersonalization, his accelerated maturation caused by external factors (terror, poverty, and hunger), the process of becoming an old man as a child, to his rebirth in exile in Israel. 2021-01-01T00:00:00Z
