Homecoming. A case studyThe study concerns the homecoming story of a Jewish Holocaust survivor, Szlomo Himelfarb, who returned to his home town of Solec on the Vistula, and his murder by local policemen. It is based on the material of so-called sierpniówki [testimonies given in 1944–1946 before summary courts for the prosecution “of fascist crimes against the civilian population and traitors of the Polish Nation”]. In conclusion, the author points to other cases of murders committed immediately after the war in Iłża (Starachowice) County. Powrót. Studium przypadkuStudium dotyczy historii powrotu ocalałego z Zagłady Żyda – Szlomo Himelfarba – do jego rodzinnego miasteczka Solec nad Wisłą i jego zabójstwa przez miejscowych milicjantów. Oparty jest na analizie materiałów tzw. sierpniówek. W zakończeniu autor wskazuje również na inne przypadki mordów w powiecie iłżeckim tuż po wojnie.
