This essay is the benefit to studying of the questions of the oral history of forcibly ejected inhabitants of Neveklov and its neighbourhoods during the 2nd World War, focused on events of the massacre in the village Křešice (Event Graun) at the end of the 2nd World War. About this region, there exists authentic testimony and this territory is fixed in the collective memory. The oral history is a highly valued literary source. Its value is in the authenticity, which is characterized by selectivity and represents another point of view. The essay brings the unique opportunity to get acquainted with witnesses of the wartime. At present this testimony is unknown or is being forgotten in the offical documents. The essay follows the researches of Jaromír Jech from the middle of the last century. So we get the view of the importance of the massacre in Křešice and forcible displacement of Czech inhabitants in a demarcated region. Result of this work is the analysis of the results obtained with the help of the modern approaches that are based on the method of the oral history, which is a part of the qualitative research, with an emphasis on general objectives and context. It also simultaneously maps over the current state, i.e. the reflection of the forcible war persecution on the present times and its viability in the future, functionality of the generation transfers and traumas.

The paper undertakes a comparative analysis of three texts: War’s Unwomanly Face by Svetlana Alexievich, the novel The Sleeping Voice by Dulce Chacón, and a testimony about women’s activism, resistance and imprisonment during the Francoist regime edited by Tomasa Cuevas. The aim of the study is to examine the problems of feminine authors’ narratives being excluded from official archives of memory, as well as emotions. The issues are considered in two different political contexts which, nevertheless, reveal quite similar mechanisms of an organization using hegemonic discourses of power.

As part of the Continental Action, Colonel Jan Kowalewski conducted activities that could get: Italy, Romania and Hungary out of the Axis. It was an activity known and supported by the Polish Ministry of Internal Affairs and the British side which financed it. The operation’s center was placed in neutral Lisbon. With regard to Romania, Colonel Kowalewski had special opportunities to act – as a former Polish military attaché in Bucharest. He was in touch with various groups of Romanian politicians, emigres, the local opposition and the government spheres. The Polish proposals included the offer of post-war federation of Central European countries. The conditions for capitulation at the front were also set. The activities of Colonel Kowalewski were interrupted by the decision of the British authorities in early 1944, who were afraid of the Soviet authorities’ reaction to the attempt to create a bloc of European countries based on anti-communist rule.

W ramach Akcji Kontynentalnej ppłk Jan Kowalewski prowadził działania mogące wydostać (wyprowadzić) z sojuszu z III Rzeszą: Włochy, Rumunię i Węgry. Była to działalność znana i popierana przez polskie Ministerstwo Spraw Wewnętrznych oraz stronę brytyjską, która ją finansowała. Centrala operacji znajdowała się w neutralnej Lizbonie. W odniesieniu do Rumunii ppłk Kowalewski miał szczególne możliwości działania – jako były attaché wojskowy RP w Bukareszcie. Docierał do różnych ugrupowań rumuńskich polityków, emigracji, opozycji krajowej i sfer rządowych. Propozycje polskie zawierały ofertę powojennej federacji państw Europy Środkowej. Ustalano warunki kapitulacji na froncie. Działalność ppłk. Kowalewskiego została przerwana na początku 1944 r. decyzją władz brytyjskich, które obawiały się reakcji władz sowieckich na próbę utworzenia bloku państw europejskich na bazie antykomunistycznej.
