Join the Poles at 5 PM CET\/11 AM ET for one minute of silence\u2014symbolizing the 'W' Hour, \"the codename for the date and time that began Operation Tempest in German-occupied Warsaw, and hence the Warsaw [Rising].\"\u2014Wikipedia\n\"1 August 1944, a vital date in Poland\u2019s history, the Polish Home Army, a non-Communist underground resistance movement, initiated the Warsaw Uprising \u2013 the largest military effort undertaken by resistance forces to oppose German occupation during World War II \u2013 to liberate the city from occupation and to reclaim Polish independence.\"\u2014Culture.pl\nWhen in Warsaw, do not forget to visit the phenomenal Warsaw Rising Museum (Muzeum Powstania Warszawskiego). \"The Warsaw Rising Museum was opened on the 60th anniversary of the outbreak of fighting in Warsaw. The Museum is a tribute of Warsaw\u2019s residents to those who fought and died for independent Poland and its free capital... The exhibition depicts fighting and everyday life during the Rising, keeping occupation terror in the background. Complexity of the international situation at the time of the Rising is portrayed, including the post-war years of the Communist regime and the fate of Insurgents in the People\u2019s Republic of Poland (PRL). With the total area of more than 3000 m2, 800 exhibition items, approximately 1500 photographs, films and sound recordings, history of the days preceding the Rising is told. Visitors are guided through the subsequent stages of the Rising until the time when the Insurgents left Warsaw. Their further fate is also portrayed.\"\u2014www.1944.pl\nTo learn more about the events of August 1, 1994, we recommend the book by Miron Bia\u0142oszewski, A Memoir of the Warsaw Uprising. Tr., intro., and notes by Madeline G. Levine. New York: New York Review Books, 2015. Bia\u0142oszewski published A Memoir of the Warsaw Uprising in 1970, recounting in fragmented, anti-heroic language, the civilian experience under German bombardment, challenging the Romantic narrative of the Rising as it was generally conceived. To learn more about the author we encourage you to listen to the Encounters with Polish Literature episode about Miron Bia\u0142oszewski with Joanna Ni\u017cy\u0144ska, hosted by David A. Goldfarb.\n\"On August 1, 1944, Miron Bia\u0142oszewski, later to gain renown as one of Poland\u2019s most innovative poets, went out to run an errand for his mother and ran into history. With Soviet forces on the outskirts of Warsaw, the Polish capital revolted against five years of Nazi occupation, an uprising that began in a spirit of heroic optimism. Sixty-three days later it came to a tragic end. The Nazis suppressed the insurgents ruthlessly, reducing Warsaw to rubble while slaughtering some 200,000 people, mostly through mass executions. The Red Army simply looked on.\"\u2014New York Review Books\nFor continued explorations we invite you to view the image gallery that Culture.pl have put together.
