Timeline

1905

Jerzy Borejsza (born Beniamin Goldberg; 14 July 1905 in Warsaw – 19 January 1952 in Warsaw) was a Polish communist activist and writer.

During the Stalinist period of communist Poland, he was chief of a state press and publishing syndicate.

Borejsza was born as Beniamin Goldberg to a Polish Jewish family.

He was an older brother of Józef Różański – later a member of the Soviet NKVD and high-ranking interrogator in the Ministry of Public Security of Poland.

As a youth, Borejsza sympathized with the Zionist radical left and anarchic political factions.

After he got in trouble with the Polish authorities, his father sponsored his residence in France.

Borejsza studied engineering, then Hispanic culture at the Sorbonne, and remained deeply involved with the politics and activism of anarchism.

1920

After his studies, Borejsza returned home and was briefly enlisted in the Polish Army in the late 1920s.

1929

In 1929, he joined the Communist Party of Poland (KPP).

1933

In the Second Polish Republic, he was imprisoned several times in the years 1933–1935 for agitation and political propaganda.

1939

After the Soviet invasion of Poland of 1939, Borejsza became a vocal supporter of the Soviet communist regime, publishing Polish language translations of Soviet propaganda.

He served as director of the Ossolineum Institute in Lwów (Lviv) in 1939–1940.

After the war, as Lviv was transferred to the Ukrainian SSR, he aided the transport of most of Ossolineum archives to Wrocław.

He was one of the founders of the Union of Polish Patriots – an organization from which the communist government of post-war Poland in part originated.

Borejsza served with the rank of major in the Red Army, and then in the Polish First Army.

He organized and edited the chief organ of the PKWN, which was the daily newspaper "Rzeczpospolita".

1940

His political role diminished in the late 1940s, particularly after the disabling injuries he suffered in a car accident in 1949.

Borejsza received the Order of Polonia Restituta.

He was buried at the Powązki Cemetery in Warsaw.

1944

In 1944, he founded the weekly "Odrodzenie", which he entrusted to Karol Kuryluk.

1945

It was in its pages that in January 1945 Borejsza published his programmatic article Revolution Gentle, in which he made an offer to the Polish intelligentsia to cooperate in building post-war cultural life.

Around "Rebirth" it was possible to gather debutants known later: Julia Hartwig, Anna Kamieńska, Jacek Bocheński and Zygmunt Kałużyński.

Authors with already recognized names also published on its pages.

1948

In 1948, on the wave of changes in cultural policy, Borejsza took over the editorship of "Rebirth" and managed it until 1950, that is, until the magazine was merged with "Kuźnica" and "Nowa Kultura" was created.

In 1948, he was one of the main organizers of the World Congress of Intellectuals in Defense of Peace in Wrocław.

He fell out of favor with the Stalinist hardliners who saw him as too independent, too hard to influence, and not radical enough.

1950

Signatory of the Stockholm Appeal in 1950.

He joined the new pro-Soviet Polish communist party, the Polish Workers' Party, and became a deputy to the State National Council.

He organized much of communist propaganda in post-war Poland and was a leading figure in the implementation of state control and censorship in the area of culture.

He created the giant publishing house Czytelnik ('The Reader').

Borejsza favored a moderate approach to culture control, which he called a "gentle revolution".

He supported establishing cultural relations with the West, and himself traveled to United States and the United Kingdom.
