(LITUANIA - INCISIONE).
Vitoldo, Eroe della Lituania. Ricavato dall'opera di Guagnini. (Ritratto a mezzo busto, di 3/4 verso destra, con elmo piumato e cinto da corona ducale con fioroni).
Incisione in acciaio (parte incisa: 80 x 170) ripresa da: "Sarmantiae Europeae descriptio, quae Regnum Poloniae, Lituaniam..." (1578) di Alessandro Guagnini (Verona 1538 - Cracovia 1614). Ritrae Vytautas Didysis (1352-1430), granduca di Lituania dal 1401 al 1430 ed eroe nazionale: operò una politica eminentemente nazionale, alleandosi alternativamente con Ladislao II Jagellone re di polonia e con i Cavalieri Teutonici, le cui mire espansionistiche però sconfisse definitivamente nella battaglia di Grunwald.

Colima to wulkan zty! Colima and its volcano
Leon Mexico: Wydawnictwo Delegatury Ministerstwa Wyznan Religijnych i Oswiecenia Publicznego w Meksyku z Funduszow Rady Polonii Amerykanskiej 1945. Paperback. Very Good. First printing. Quarto cloth backed wraps 93 pp illustrated including photoplates. Very good. Worldcat locates 9 copies in institutions. In Polish: a geological and archaeological study of Colima Mexico including studies of its terrain and volcanic possibilities. Extremely uncommon publication from the Polish refugee colony at Santa Rosa near Leon in Guanajuato Mexico. Thousands of Polish refugees were first sent off to Soviet gulags and from there were placed in mainly British commonwealth countries including Iran and India although some ended up in Israel. The United States in trying to forge an alliance with Stalin declined to make room for Polish refugees although some indeed did end up on the west coast where they were put into Japanese internment camps. But the Mexican ambassador to Britain Alfonso Rozenzweig Diaz an admirer of the Polish General Sikorski who had pleaded with Roosevelt for assistance offered to put up a community of Poles in Santa Rosa Guanajuato where he made a "hacienda" available schools and school supplies which were supplemented by Polish-American organizations in the States. When the war ended in 1945 the President of Mexico made the Poles remaining at Santa Rosa welcome to either apply for permanent residency or to leave to Poland which was then under Soviet control and therefore almost as unwelcoming as it was under the Germans. Only a handful who had family back in Poland chose to return. Most others ended up in the United States but some who had married or established businesses stayed on in Guanajuato. Most of the Poles who ended up in Santa Rosa were at the end of a 2-year 20000km journey filled with much hardship.

Incisione in acciaio (parte incisa: mm. 90 x 160) di Verico su disegno di Pieraccini.

Stefano I Bathory (1533-1586) divenne re di Polonia e granduca di Lituania dopo la rinuncia di Enrico di Valois, grazie all'elezione a regina della moglie Anna Jagellona: rafforzò il potere regio e fu abile sia in politica interna che estera, riaffermando nella zona baltica la superiorità della Polonia sulla Russia.

00I [The Official Polish Government-in-Exile Report Informing the World of the Holocaust] Poland, Ministerstwo Spraw Zagraniczny
THE MASS EXTERMINATION OF JEWS IN GERMAN OCCUPIED POLAND: NOTE ADDRESSED TO THE GOVERNMENTS OF THE UNITED NATIONS ON DECEMBER 10TH 1942 AND OTHER DOCUMENTS
London New York; Published on Behalf of the Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs by Hutchinson & Co 1943. 1st edition. Original illustrated red and white paper wrappers. 8vo. 16 pages. 22 cm. National Government Publication. Printed in red and black ink. Includes a note by Polish Foreign Minister Edward Raczynski and speeches by Deputy Prime Minister Stanislaw Mikolajczyk.<br> The official 16-page diplomatic publication from December 1942 by the Polish Government-in-Exile in London marking a turning point in international understanding of the Nazi destruction of the Jews of Europe. <br> Jan Karski a courier for the Polish Underground had smuggled microfilmed evidence and intelligence out of occupied Poland to London. This raw intelligence gathered from his time secretly inside the Warsaw Ghetto and the Izbica transit camp formed the core of the facts published in the booklet.<br> <br> "In October 1942 at the height of the destruction of Polish Jewry Jan Karski born Jan Kozielewski was ordered to clandestinely go to the West and deliver a report on the situation of occupied Poland to the Polish government-in-exile in London. The situation of the Jews in Poland was to be one section of that report. Since the government in exile was concerned with the internal politics of Poland's underground parties Karski held meetings with the different factions including the Jewish Zionist and the Jewish Socialist Bund movements. <br> Thus shortly before his departure Karski met with two Jewish leaders who asked him to inform the world's statesmen of the desperate plight of Polish Jewry and of the hopelessness of their situation. Their message was: 'Our entire people will be destroyed.'<br> The Jewish leaders' appeals touched Karski and he decided to see things with his own eyes in order to make his report. With great risk to his life he was smuggled into the Warsaw ghetto and into a camp in the Lublin area. The horrors he witnessed marked him deeply and propelled him to become not only the messenger of the Polish underground but to concentrate on giving voice to the suffering of the dying Jews.<br> In November 1942 Karski reached London delivered the report to the Polish government-in-exile and set out to meet Winston Churchill other politicians journalists and public figures. Upon completing his mission Karski went on to the United States where he met with President Roosevelt and other dignitaries and tried in vain to stir up public opinion against the massacre of the Jews. In 1944 while in the United States Karski wrote a book on the Polish Underground Story of a Secret State with a long chapter on the Jewish Holocaust in Poland.<br> After the war Karski stayed in the United States where he was later appointed Professor at Georgetown University Washington DC.<br> On 2 June 1982 Yad Vashem recognized Jan Karski as Righteous Among the Nations" Yad Vashem. <br> <br> Leading Holocaust scholar Lucy Dawidowicz cites the booklet in her now classic work "The Holocaust and the Historians" Harvard 1983 p. 167; the report could not be more explicit in its description of the horrors nor in its plea for help: <br> "The new methods of mass slaughter applied during the last few months confirm the fact that the German authorities aim with systematic deliberation at the total extermination of the Jewish population of Poland and of the many thousands of Jews whom the German authorities have departed to Poland from Western and Central European countries and from the German Reich itself. The Polish Government considers it their duty to bring to the knowledge of the Governments of all civilised countries the following fully authenticated information received from Poland during recent weeks which indicates all too plainly the new methods of extermination adopted by the German authorities." <br> The report elaborates: "The actual process of deportation was carried out with appalling brutality. At the appointed hour on each day the German police cordoned off a block of houses selected for clearance entered the back yard and fired their guns at random as a signal for all to leave their homes and assemble in the yard. Anyone attempting to escape or to hide was killed on the spot. No attempt was made by the Germans to keep families together. Wives were torn from their husbands and children from their parents. Those who appeared frail or infirm were carried straight to the Jewish cemetery to be killed and buried there. <br> On the average 50-100 people were disposed of in this way daily. After the contingent was assembled the people were packed forcibly into cattle trucks to the number of 120 in each truck which had room for forty. The trucks were then locked and sealed. The Jews were suffocating for lack of air. The floors of the trucks were covered with quicklime and chlorine. As far as is known the trains were dispatched to three localities - Treblinka Belzec and Sobibor to what the reports describe as 'Extermination camps.' <br> The very method of transport was deliberately calculated to cause the largest possible number of casualties among the condemned Jews. It is reported that on arrival in camp the survivors were stripped naked and killed by various means including poison gas and electrocution. The dead were interred in mass graves dug by machinery." <br> <br> Read more about the singular importance of this publication at <br> en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mass_Extermination_of_Jews_in_German_Occupied_Poland# . <br> In 2020 Polish Postal authorities chose this very publication to illustrate their official first day cover honoring righteous Poles who had saved Jews during the Holocaust see illustration. <br> <br> Subjects: World War 1939-1945 - Jews - Poland. World War 1939-1945 - Poland - Atrocities. Holocaust Jewish 1939-1945 - Poland. Jews - Poland.

In some parts of the map the information becomes so dense that three inset maps are shown. This map was designed by Jan Laskowski and printed in 1979 as part of a work on the Nazi extermination machine produced by PWN Warsaw a state-owned research-focused publishing house in Poland.<br> The map on the front is particularly interesting for its depiction of symbols used to classify internees in German camps. The uppermost of these depictions shows the combinations that can be made for different types of prisoners of different levels of importance. The armbands that would have been worn by these prisoners is shown as well as the prison uniforms. Other details are also shown. <br> The map lists hundreds of sites run by Nazi operators throughout the country. These include concentration camps death camps transitional camps and ghettos. The map is divided according to Poland's voivodeships with a key in the lower left. Names of cities too long to spell are also provided in the lower left. <br> This map was produced during a point in Poland's history during which it was actively revisiting the period during the Second World War. Leading social scientists devoted their time to trying to gather all the living as well as the recorded history of the events of the Holocaust and related atrocities before this information vanished. Leading these efforts particularly during the 1960s and 1970s was the Glówna Komisja Scigania Zbrodni przeciwko Narodowi Polskiemu known as the Chief Commission for the Prosecution of Crimes against the Polish Nation. They were active in publishing maps both for domestic educational purposes and for international remembrance and diplomatic efforts regarding the Holocaust. Jan Laskowski was a leading cartographer who produced a number of maps in this field. <br> These maps were produced as part of a series of maps that purported to combine to form an atlas of all of Hitler's crimes in Poland. Many of the large wall maps produced during this period could only show a fraction of the crimes or only the atrocities committed in one region. Thus a series of maps was needed to show all the points necessary which this present work contributes to. <br> Polish Reinterpretations of the Holocaust: Studying the effects of German occupation in Poland is a delicate subject. While it is certain that Poland suffered at least as badly as any other European nation during the Second World War reinterpretations of the Holocaust in the country have also been used to satisfy nationalistic tendencies. It has become evident to Western observers in the last several years that there is a strong nationalist movement in Poland that seeks to place blame for the Holocaust solely on the shoulders of non-Polish actors a movement originally fostered under Soviet rule. This movement has gone so far as to limit freedom of speech criminalizing with a three-year sentence the suggestion that Poland or its citizens in any form participated in the murders committed by Nazis. As such the term ‘Polish concentration camps’ has been deemed unacceptable with the government-approved term being ‘concentration camps on Polish territory.’ <br> All lines of evidence show that this map 2A & 2B was produced using the most accurate and impartial historical sources. The language on the map is simple naming only ‘Hitler's Atrocities’ and there is no evidence of a clear anti-German bias. However it is impossible to separate this map one of the most important productions of the remembrance movement during this period from the social situation in which it was produced. Maps like these can easily be converted into propaganda instruments and today's Polish leaders most of whom grew up during Soviet occupation will have formed their understanding of the Holocaust through maps like these. <br> Soviet Censorship: While the content of the map appears to have been produced free from bias the map still had to go through Soviet censorship. Mentioning prisoner of war camps in which primarily Soviet troops were interned would have been a prerequisite condition upon which the publication of the map rested. Further the lack of mention of any Soviet killings or camps requires no explanation….The map unlike many later maps makes no differentiation between the populations who suffered at the various camps. This represents the Soviet agenda that all nations suffered fought and won equally which sought to limit divisions in this post-identity state†Ruderman 2022. <br> SUBJECTS: World War 1939-1945 -- Prisoners and prisons German. -- Concentration camps -- Poland.

Includes discussion of the Holocaust defense of Poland from charges of anti-Semitism and resistance organizations.<br> “On the eve of the Second World War Poland was home to over three million Jews making it the second-largest community in the world. Warsaw the capital had a population of over 300000 Jews more than 30% of the population of the city—and a larger Jewish community than in most European countries. Around 85% of Polish Jewry was annihilated during the Holocaust. After the war many survivors refused to return to or remain in Poland which was marked by civil war and anti-Semitic violence. Since the end of Communism the small Jewish community in Poland has been able to reassert its identity and begin the process of rebuilding. Most of the country's Jews live in Warsaw but smaller communities also exist in Kraków Wroclaw Lodz Katowice Szczecin Gdansk and several other cities.†World Jewish Congress<br> SUBJECTS: Jews -- Poland.
