search engine in the database, it was possible to establish that the details in the testimony mentioned at the start of this article, are similar to events in a book written in Swedish from 1983, Dagar i Warszawa 1940-1945. Minnen från tiden i gettot och utanför murarna(Days in Warsaw 1939-1945. Memories from the Warsaw Ghetto and Beyond iIs Walls). A quick glance at the testimony and Polish version of the book left no doubt that it was the same author. Her name was Zofia Brzezińska. Thanks to research enhanced by digital tools, testimony no. 302/21 from JHI Archive has no longer word “anonymous” in the description of the collection.
The testimony of Zofia Brzezińska “I Saw No Chance of Surviving, So I Began to Write” from the Jewish Historical Institute Archive was published in English by Yad Vashem in 2020.
The new version of the Database getto.pl and interactive map component were financed thanks to a research grant from the Polish National Science Centre, “Hiding in Warsaw on the 'Aryan' side, 1940-1945” and the Fondation pour la Mémoire de la Shoah grant (project “Jews Hiding in Warsaw on the 'Aryan' side, 1940-1945”). Continuous work and new functionalities are possible thanks to the grant from the Polish National Science Centre, “Between Help and Danger. Hiding on the ‘Aryan’ Side of Warsaw 1940–1945 — Phase II”. Development and continuation and private donations.
