Abstract:
The Polish Underground State, which functioned during the Second World War in the Polish lands occupied by the Germans, was a unique phenomenon in Europe. It had an underground administration covering the entire Polish territory, an underground parliament, and an efficiently operating judiciary and education, including clandestine universities. From the point of view of the fight against the occupant, the most crucial part of this state was the armed forces, i.e. the Home Army (Armia Krajowa, AK), which in 1944, at the peak of its development, numbered more than 350,000 soldiers upon oath. The Home Army was a part of the Polish armed forces, so, for this reason, it was also called the Armed Forces in Poland (Siły Zbrojne w Kraju). The central command apparatus of the Home Army was its Headquarters (Komenda Główna, KG), located from 1939 to 1944 in Warsaw. The hitherto literature on the Polish Underground State and its army has focused predominantly on reconstructing their organisational structures, personnel, and the results of their operating activities, thus leaving those who peopled these structures aside. The present monograph, however, brings to the foreground the people of the underground, depicting their everyday life or, more precisely, the impact of their service in the underground army on their daily life. The study aims to show the everyday life and service of the conspirators – Home Army soldiers serving in the structures of the Main Headquarters of the Service for Polandʼs Victory – the Union of Armed Struggle – the Home Army in its conspiratorial stage of activity on the territory of Warsaw, that is from 1939 to 1944.
