Sobre este artículo
San Diego: Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1983. First edition. Octavo, original half black cloth over paper boards, original dust jacket. Ink remainder slash across bottom edge of text block, else fine.
"A STATE EXISTS FOR ITS CITIZENS AND NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND." First edition in English of one section of Wyszynski's massive, unpublished Pro Memoria, composed while the Polish primate was imprisoned by the government, and published shortly after his death in 1981. Stefan Cardinal Wyszynski was arrested late on the night of September, 25, 1953. Thus began an "internal exile" that was to last until he was freed after a coup in October, 1956. Wyszynski was never tried and he was moved often, to four different prisons in the four corners of Poland. The text begins with a Prison Calendar, with a corresponding map. Opens with "Freedom has continually to be won, it cannot merely be possessed," a lengthy quote from Karol Wojtyla's "Thinking My Country." Foreword by John Cardinal Kroll, archbishop of Philadelphia. Translated by Barbara Krzywicki-Herburt and Reverend Walter J. Ziemba.
