After the massacres that were carried out in 2022 by fascists in Buchi, Izium, Mariupol and other Ukrainian towns and villages, and their victims still cry for remembrance, the account of Simon Shpund, an eyewitness of the First World War in Stanislaviv, no longer looks like an exceptionally memorable account. The First World War for Stanislaviv, as well as for other towns in Galicia, was not something legitimate, which derived from the nature of their internal social and political development. Earlier on, on the contrary, it was a reckless intrusion of external factors into the even if not quite calm, but very large life of the inhabitants of the region, historically the first experience of their confrontation with Rashism. An unhappy summary of reading the text by S. Shpunda will make you think that everything that has happened before was already there. It is true that this special "once upon a time" is still a bellwether in our municipal, and not only, history. So, let's read and draw conclusions.
