An Appeal To The Civilized World: Or The Wrongs Of My Country (1842) by D. O. Sypniewski is a historical document that details the author's plea for help in addressing the injustices and oppression faced by his homeland. The book is a call to action for the ""civilized world"" to take notice of the suffering of the Polish people and to support their struggle for freedom and independence. Sypniewski's writing is passionate and emotional, as he describes the horrors of the Russian occupation of Poland and the violent suppression of Polish culture and language. He argues that the Polish people have been denied basic human rights and that their struggle for freedom is a just cause that deserves the support of the international community. The book is structured as a series of letters addressed to various European leaders, including the Pope, the King of France, and the British Prime Minister. In each letter, Sypniewski lays out the historical background of the Polish struggle and makes a compelling case for why his country deserves support. Overall, An Appeal To The Civilized World is a powerful and moving document that sheds light on a little-known chapter in European history. It is a testament to the resilience and determination of the Polish people in the face of oppression, and a call to action for those who believe in the universal values of freedom and justice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
