- Abstract
The outstanding mathematician Hugo Steinhaus spent the Second World War hiding in the little foothill town of Stróże. After the war he published Wspomnienia i zapiski, a book recalling this small occupationera fragment of the world. M. Sznajderman wonders whether it is possible to construe a true story about history based on its fragment, a shred, an incomplete account determining the time and place in which the author of the account lived. Is such a story legitimate archival material or merely an archive footnote? And does the archive contain a ready, complete narrative, a total story waiting for us, or does it ultimately leave us with an experience of lack, loss, and melancholy?
