Unfaithful to the oath

The film about the the polish psychiatrist Dr. Karol Mikulski, which was posted a few days ago here, provoced a fierce reaction by our speaker Artur Hojan. He wrote an article responding to film, in which he challenges presumptions and conclusions drawn in the film. We are glad to be able to present it here, it was also published on Mr. Hojan’s blog and on the gedenkort-t4 blog. We invite you to discuss the matter by using the comment function.

Artur Hojan: Unfaithful to the oath

In the last few months a Warsaw group of intellectuals and journalists, associated with the conservative right wing, represented mainly by the Society of Teologia Polityczna, are trying to rewrite the history of the Nazi euthanasia programme in occupied Poland. Dr. Magdalena Gawin and others believe that the fundamental difference between  the „Aktion T4” in the Third Reich and the killing of mentally ill people in occupied Poland is that Polish psychiatrists were against this murderous program and tried to save their patients. In order to keep up historical accuracy, it is necessary to refute the view of the Warsaw group before it becomes orthodoxy in Poland.

End of registration

There ain’t no room big enough! We are terribly sorry, but we have to close registration, as we are running out of space. We are working hastily to establish a livestream of the conference, so be sure to check back at January 28th.

 

 

Anmeldeschluss

Wir schliessen die Anmeldung für deutsche Teilnehmer. Für Teilnehmer aus dem EU-Ausland ist eine Registrierung weiterhin möglich, einige wenige Plätze sind noch frei. Vielen Dankfür das überwältigende Interesse. Wir hätten auch gern noch mehr Interessierten die Teilnahme ermöglicht, aber mehr Belegung als wir schon haben verträgt unser Konferenzsaal beim besten Willen nicht mehr.
