	Volhynie Campaign Service in 1812
		When the Division was on the Volhynie General Kosinski issued a proclamation to the Poles who lived on the Volhynie in which he tried to induce them to stage an uprising.
		Kosinski didn't execute Schwarzenberg's order commanding him to go to Luboml, a town on the Turia River, and instead crossed the Bug River to protect Zamosc, a very important town and fortress in the Grand Duchy of Warsaw.
		Kosinski sent the 1st Bn/13th Line Regt., depot battalion, Wald-jagers, and elements of the National Guard to Zamosc.

		She ferreted out some of Kosinski's benefactors who sheltered him during the war at the risk of death for themselves and for their families.
		It turns out that Kosinski chose to lie about the people who risked their lives daily to save him from the Nazi ovens.
		Kosinski's American wife tried to make up for this, and she apparently was quite surprised by his demeanor.

		For Maciek, like the nameless boy of Jerzy Kosinski's novel "The Painted Bird," was thrust into the wartime underworld so young that its vicious rules of survival became part of consciousness itself.
		Kosinski's child, left totally alone, learned the predator's ways and worshiped power; but Maciek, born a few months after the burning of the Reichstag in 1933, is taught to behave like the animal that is preyed upon -- to freeze all responses, to deny himself, to practice endless deceit.
		Older children, as we can see from the autobiographical accounts of Janina David ("A Square of Sky") and Yehuda Nir ("The Lost Childhood"), could manage the game of multiple identities while remembering and valuing who they really were.

		On August 2, 1943 prisoners of the Treblinka concentration camp, armed with stolen guns and grenades, attacked their guards, set fire to the "factory of death," and fled into the neighboring forest.
		With breathtaking intensity Ian MacMillan narrates the Treblinka uprising in the voices of people both inside the camp and in the surrounding countryside, children and adults, victims and guards.
		For its staggering depiction of horror and for its sheer humanity, Village of a Million Spirits should be considered, like the novels of Levi, Wiesel, Kosinski, and Borowski, essential reading in Holocaust literature.

		The fact that the German president was apparently unaware of the Warsaw Uprising of 1944Ñas distinct from the Ghetto UprisingÑwhen invited to attend fiftieth anniversary celebrations was taken by many Poles as yet another sign of the WestÕs seemingly willful, deliberate ignorance of PolandÕs tragedies.
		For example, he is rather cool toward Joanna SiedleckaÕs book on Jerzy Kosinski, even though the great majority of her charges have since been confirmed by an unimpeachably Anglo-Saxon author (129Ð30).
		Although the Ghetto Uprising was always cast as an exception to this, the image served all sides.

	UPRISING
		The Warsaw ghetto uprising was indeed a heroic event, as was the uprising at Treblinka, which was buried by the brown shirts.
		UPRISING chronicles the events leading up to and during the battle for the Warsaw Ghetto.
		Total casualty figures for the uprising are uncertain, but the Germans likely lost several hundred soldiers during the 28 days that it took them to kill or deport over 40,000 Jews.

		When in 1591 Kosinski ahead of registered soldiers seized a castle in White Cerkiew the Ukraine peasants in large number started to join the uprising and the private war has evolved into anti — feudal uprising.
		Chancellor (and Grand Crown Hetman at the same time) Jan Zamojski perceived the uprising as a private dispute of Kosinski with Ostrogski, and therefore he forbade using the crown army to suppress the rebellion.
		In February 1593 the insurgents were defeated in a battle at Piatek and Kosinski concluded an agreement with the Ukraine magnates promising them to stop fighting and return seized properties.

	The Pianist Movie Review
		There is no denying the power of Polanski's film, its heartfelt anguish, and its brilliant manner of bringing the story out so that it becomes penetrating in a way that goes beyond the shock of such atrocities.
		It touches on the Warsaw uprising when a group of Jews did fight back but got eliminated.
		But it saves its most lyrical story for the tale of Wladyslaw and how by a trick of fate he got separated from his family as they were heading by train toward the Treblinka concentration camp.

		Discusses the debate over Yom Hashoah; the date of 27 Nissan, the last day of the Warsaw ghetto uprising, was finally chosen in 1951, and in 1959 the Knesset set the tone of the day by instituting two minutes of silence and closing all places of entertainment.
		Repatriated to Poland in 1946, Rapoport's proposal for a monument to honor the ghetto uprising was accepted by the Warsaw Jewish Committee and Warsaw City Arts Committee and unveiled in April 1948.
		Since there is no separate memorial to the Polish uprising of 1944, the Warsaw Ghetto Monument has become the focus for Polish memorial ceremonies as well.

		Nearly all the work of administration, and later the work of transporting hundreds of thousands of Jews to their deaths, was carried out by Jewish collaborators.
		Before the outbreak of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising (the planning of which only started after the extermination of the majority of Jews in Warsaw), the Jewish underground killed, with perfect justification, every Jewish collaborator they could find.
		If they had not done so the Uprising could never have started.

	"The Pianist" - Salon
		Again and again in "The Pianist," the Szpilman family glimpses those horrors from a removed vantage point; for example, from their darkened apartment as Nazis raid a Jewish building across the street.
		And later, Wladyslaw watches the Warsaw ghetto uprising from the high windows of apartments where he is hiding.
		I think Polanski uses this motif, watching murder and death from a window, to convey the derangement of everyday life under the Nazis.

		In 1794 he took part in the Kosciuszko Uprising, whose purpose was to gain Poland’s independence from the partitioning powers; after it was crushed he stayed in Pulawy for about two years as a court painter of the Czartoryski princes.
		As a result of his unsteady character and bohemian existence, Wojniakowski never attained the rewards and social status commensurate with his talents and he died in poverty.
		He painted genre scenes with landscaped backgrounds in the early Neo-classicist manner, influenced to some extent by the Rococo tradition.

		At a subsequent meeting of scholars, it was pointed out that only one chimney exploded; Dr. Laub replied, in defense of the survivor, that her testimony was psychologically true, affirming a deep but long-buried and unexpressed sense of the possibility of resistance to extermination.
