TREŚĆ: Pokaż informacje o treści pozycji >>Archives form one of our most vital links with the past. Not only do they give historians the chance to discover what really happened, they also stand as a permanent warning against those who would write history on the basis of wishful thinking or mere ideology. from this point of view, the Archives of the Polish Institute and Sikorski Museum in London are particulary valuable. They contain principal collection of materials relating to Poland`s contribution to World War 2, 1939 - 1945. In many regards, they far excel any of the wartime collections which have survived in Poland itself. In addition to the unique materials concerning the September Campain, the polish Government in France and Great Britain, the Polish Armed Forces abroad, and the Poles in the USSR, the Archives possess a large and groving corpus of private papers and special deposits from prominent Polish people and organisations round the world. Like the Bibliotheque Polonaise, founded in Paris in similar circumstances a century earlier, the Polish Archives in London were founded in 1945 by Poles who refused to accept the dishonour of a foreign takeover of their country. The Institute has become a cultural centre of international importance and an enduring symbol of the Polish cause. The publication in English of this first volume of the Guide to Archives is testimony to the Polish Institute`s continuing energy and dedication. It must be welcomed by all - professional historians, lovers of Polish history and simply by those who admire what the Polish Institute and Sikorski Museum stands for and has achieved.
