21,5×15,8 cm; 90, (5) pp. e una c. di tav. con ritratto dell’autore. Brossura editoriale illustrata. Firma autografa di Broniewski alla prima carta bianca datata Warszawa 14.V.50. Esemplare in buone condizioni di conservazione ed ancora a fogli chiusi. Prima edizione di questa raccolta di componimenti del celebre poeta e combattente polacco, Wladyslaw Broniewski (December 17, 1897, Plock – February 10, 1962, Warsaw). L’autore venne educato nello spirito dell’intellighienza polacca che voleva mantenere vive la tradizione rivoluzionaria, patriottica ed indipendentista della Polonia dell’epoca romantica quando la nazione era stata cancellata dalle carte geografiche dopo la spartizione operata da Prussia, Impero Russo ed impero Austriaco nel 1772. Nel 1918 l’autore si arruola volontario nelle Legioni polacche e alla fine dello stesso anno sostiene l’esame di maturità in una Polonia di nuovo indipendente. Nel 1920 prende parte alla guerra Polacco-Sovietica. Nel 1922, con un processo di radicalizzazione marxista, pubblica i suoi primi componimenti sulla rivista “Skamander”. Nel 1931 venne arrestato con tutta la redazione della rivista “Miesiecznik Literacki” per le sue idee socialiste. Nel 1939 viene di nuovo arrestato a Lwow, territorio occupato dall’Unione Sovietica, in seguito ad un una falsa accusa. Nel 1941 segue l’armata del generale Anders in Medio Oriente e rimane fino al termine della guerra in Palestina. Dal 1946 rientra in patria e partecipa con la sua poesia alla rinascita del paese elogiando con fede incrollabile il socialismo. Non comune raccolta di componimenti poetici in prima edizione. First Edition. Autografo.
