To Kasieńka from Grandpa is a document of a personal and family memory, authored by Artur Lilien-Brzozdowiecki (1890‒1958) in 1944/45. This memoir, which was written in Polish and translated to English for the family circulation alone, now becomes a public asset. Lilien invites his new-born granddaughter to encounter her family, generations of Polish Jewry: merchants, lease-holders, bankers, industrialists, politicians, communal leaders, army officers, scholars, physicians, artists, and art collectors. They dwell in a broad Jewish and Christian world, integrated into the national life of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, the Habsburg Empire, and the Second Polish Republic. The reader is encouraged to enjoy reminiscences of this worthy life and bitter choices that challenged Polish--particularly Galician--Jewry in the twentieth century.Binding Type: HardcoverAuthor: Artur Lilien-BrzozdowieckiPublisher: Academic Studies PressPublished: 04/30/2016ISBN: 9781618114976Pages: 168Weight: 0.91lbsSize: 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.44d
