Abstract
This year marks the 80th anniversary of the murder in Markowa (Podkarpacie region) of the Ulma Family and the Jews they sheltered from the Goldman, Didner and Grünfeld families. Because of this family’s heroism and extraordinary acts, the Sejm of the Republic of Poland, by a resolution of 28 July 2023, established 2024 the Year of the Ulma Family. The resolution stated that “in Poland and beyond its borders they (i.e. Ulmas) are a symbol of all those who gave their lives for helping Jews persecuted by the Germans”. The fifth volume of Polish-Jewish Studies primarily focuses on the aid provided to the Jews during World War II in occupied Poland as well as in other parts of Europe. The volume is divided in four sections: “Studies,” “Sources,” “Reviews Polemics,” and “Chronicles.”
