In 8° (18×12 cm); 113, (3) pp. Brossura editoriale con titolo, autore e stampatori impressi entro cornice al frontespizio. Qualche lievissimo segno del tempo ma nel complesso esemplare in buone condizioni di conservazione. Prima edizione di questa celebre raccolta di componimenti di uno dei più famosi e non convenzionali poeti ed artisti polacchi, Konstanty Ildefons Galczynski (Varsavia, 23 gennaio 1905 – Varsavia, 6 dicembre 1953). Allo scoppio della Prima Guerra Mondiale si trasferì a Mosca dove suo padre lavorava come impiegato e vi rimase fino al 1918. Tornato a Varsavia, seguì gli studi classici all’Università non disdegnando però gli studi musicali che tanta importanza avranno poi nella sua composizione letteraria ricca di liriche e di neologismi. Proprio la stravaganza dei suoi versi ha reso difficili la traduzione degli stessi in altre lingue. A 23 anni si avvicinò al circolo culturale Kwadryga dove venivano diffuse le idee e ideali innovativi ispirati dal Futurismo italiano e al costruttivismo russo che segnarono in modo decisivo la produzione poetica polacca d’avanguardia. Il suo debutto letterario risale al 1930 con il poema folkloristico La fine del mondo. Dal 1931 al 1933 soggiornò a Berlino, mentre dal 1934 al 1938 si trasferì a Vilnius. Durante la Seconda Guerra Mondiale venne catturato dai nazisti e internato nel lager di Altengrabov. La fine della guerra gli permise di viaggiare per l’Europa, soggiornando a Parigi, Bruxelles e Roma. Fin dall’origine della sua produzione letteraria l’umorismo fu la base della sua poesia accentuato da una forte vena satirica che prendeva in giro il mondo politico contemporaneo. Nella sua poesia si trovano in perfetto equilibrio una visione realistica del mondo ed un illogicità dirompente esaltate da veri e propri virtuosismi lessicali. Trattò temi di grande importanza sociale in farse, racconti grotteschi, e favole esopiche. Intorno al 1950 le sue opere divennero il centro di un acceso dibattito ideologico e alcuni suoi lavori vennero denunciati all’autorità per sospetto deviazionismo politico ed iniziarono così a diventare sempre meno comuni da reperire sul mercato librario. La musicalità del suoi componimenti ancora oggi inspirano autori di ballate e musica popolare polacca. “Zaczarowana Dorozka” (La Cabina Incantata) contiene i componimenti scritti a Szczecin dove fondò, insieme a Helena Kurcyusz e Jerzy Andrzejewski il gruppo letterario “Klub 13 Muz”. Fra i componimenti presenti nell’opera „Lyrika, Lyrika, Tkliwa Dynamika”, „Wjazd na wielorybe”, „Wiosna w Szczecinie”, „Przygoda w Szczecinie”, „Szczecin”, „Wrobla Wielkanoc” ed altre. Galczynski si può considerare come il giullare della poesia polacca del novecento, un giullare che con il suo atteggiamento giocoso e incostante, veniva perdonato per una polemica politica, sempre coperta sotto il manto salvifico dell’umorismo, dei neologismi e dei giochi di parole.

194443395Shvayts Switzerland: Undzer Vort Poale Tziyon Left 1944. May 1944. 1st edition. Original stapled printed paper cover 4to 2 25 pages. <br> In Yiddish. Title translates as "In Memoriam. On the Anniversary of the Uprising in the Warsaw Ghetto April-May 1943.<br> First Anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto uprising published in Europe during the Holocaust by Jewish "Poale Tziyon Left" members in Switzerland. The organization's name which means "Workers of Zion" is sometimes also romanized as "Poale Zion" or "Poaley Syjon." <br> <br> The imprint "Undzer Vort" "Our Word" was a Left Poale Tziyon publisher in Switzerland which also published a mimeograph newspaper titled "Undzer Vort" OCLC: 232675203 during this same period. A fully underground version of the paper was also published in Nazi-Occupied Belgium see below.<br> <br> Indeed Poale Tsiyon Left was an important part of Jewish resistance throughout Europe most notably during the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising which this publication commemorates. <br> <br> "The Holocaust-era Jewish resistance group ZOB was formed from a coalition including Hashomer Hatzair Dror Bnei Akiva the Jewish Bund various Jewish Communist groups and both factions of Poale Zion. Poale Zion was also active in the Anti-Fascist Bloc.<br> Several notable Jewish resistance fighters during the Holocaust particularly those involved in the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising were members of Poale Zion. They include:<br> <br> Adolf Berman Warsaw ZOB fighter; Secretary of Zegota Poale Zion Left<br> Hersz Berlinski member of Warsaw ZOB Command Poale Zion Left<br> Yochanan Morgenstern member of Warsaw ZOB Command Poale Zion Right<br> Emanuel Ringelblum member of Warsaw ZOB; chronicler of the Warsaw Ghetto Poale Zion Left" Wikipedia.<br> <br> The booklet opens with the moving story of the start of the uprising:<br> <br> "It has been a year since the glorious uprising of the Jews in the Warsaw ghetto.<br> April 19 1943 - barely a few tens of thousands of Jews left in Warsaw after about half a million of their brothers and sisters were exterminated in the most gruesome way they rose up with organized resistance against the renewed attempts.that they too like the previous ones would be led out like sheep to the slaughter.<br> Forty thousand Jews weapons in hand opposed an enemy tenfold a hundred hundred times outnumbered.Women men and children the high class and the humble.<br> From the beginning they all knew without exception that they would be defeated that the outcome was not in doubt and that the enemy intended nothing but destruction for all of them.<br> But no Nazi expected to fall on such a battlefield.<br> And his was the biggest slap in the face which the proud Nazis.so hated when it was received from these these trampled down these unrefined these scorned these despised Jewish 'untermenchen'" Translated from the opening paragraphs on page 1.<br> <br> The publication later continues with a damnation of the "democracies" who did so little and a holding up of the comrades of Poale Tziyon who are doing so much fighting on all fronts:<br> <br> "The 'world democracies' didn't do anything.to save the Jewish victims and to stop the misery train they issued platonic statements about punishing the 'crimes' after the massacre. The warnings have so far helped little.<br> The.Sacrifices keep growing.The world that is fighting 'for justice' and that is busy with courts after the massacre has not found any means to rescue the few escaped heroes in the ghetto for a whole year.<br> This long eulogy is for dozens and hundreds of comrades who fell as loyal children of the nation and fighters for its working class on the fronts in the distant.north in the camps of France and Belgium. who went from one end of the world to the other - at their wounds and from hundreds of thousands of others - comrades of the Poale-Tziyon movement." page 24. <br> <br> Poale Zion.was a movement of Marxist-Zionist Jewish workers founded in various cities of Poland Europe and the Russian Empire at about the turn of the 20th century after the Bund rejected Zionism in 1901.<br> Poale Zion was torn between left-wing and right-wing factions in 1919-1920; the organization formally split at the Poale Zion fifth world congress in Vienna in 1920 following a similar division that occurred in the Second International.<br> The right wing was less Marxist and more nationalist and favoured a more moderate socialist program and supported the International Working Union of Socialist Parties to continue the work of the Second International essentially becoming a social democratic party. The left-wing faction did not consider the Second International radical enough and some accused its members of betraying Borochov's revolutionary principles although Borochov had begun to modify his ideology as early as 1914 and publicly identified as a social democrat the year before his death.<br> Poale Zion Left which supported the Bolshevik revolution continued to be sympathetic to Marxism and Communism and attended the second and third congresses of the Communist International in a consultative capacity. They lobbied for membership but their attempts were unsuccessful as the internationalist communist movement under Lenin and Trotsky was opposed to Zionist nationalism. The Comintern advised individual members of Left Poale Zion to join their national Communist parties as individuals; at their 1922 Danzig conference these terms were rejected by the party. The Comintern declared it an enemy of the workers' movement.<br> Poale Zion Left opposed the decision by Poale Zion to rejoin the World Zionist Organization viewing it as essentially bourgeois in character and viewed the Histadrut as reformist and non-socialist. Aside from differing attitudes towards Zionism and Stalinism the two wings of Poale Zion parted ways over Yiddish and Yiddish culture.<br> The Left was more supportive of the latter similar to the members of the Jewish Bund while the Right bloc identified strongly with the emerging modern Hebrew movement in the early 20th century.<br> In Poland for a brief period following World War I both factions of Poale Zion were reported as legal and functioning political parties. The Polish Left party was the largest Left Poale Zion party in the world. It worked closely with the Bund in developing Yiddish schools in Poland and supporting secular Yiddish culture although they had political differences e.g. the Bund was more supportive of the Polish Socialist Party than LPZ.<br> As part of the large-scale ban on Jewish political parties in post-World War II Poland by the Communist leadership both Poale Zion groups were disbanded in February 1950" Wikipedia.<br> <br> Interestingly the image on the front cover this distinctive gravestone with "Yizkor" in a specific heavy font was a frequent image for memorials to the victims of pogroms as well as the Shoah in particular for memorials to the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising.

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.
