The accounts presented in 'Voices of Memory' are the testimony of particular people known to us by name, which is all the more reason to remember that the tragedy of Auschwitz is, at one and the same time, the tragedy of the more than one million victims, and also the tragedy of each individual person.

The first issue of 'Voices of Memory' is dedicated to the evacuation, liqiudation, and liberation of Auschwitz. It incudes a historical outline written by Andrzej Strzelecki ('Preparations for the evacuation of the camp'), selected sources (accounts and memoirs, photographs and documents), biographical sketches of the authors of accounts, and timeline of important events in the Auschwitz Concentration Camp.
