Juliusz Mieroszewski

Mieroszewski was also a translator - he translated George Orwell's 1984, as well as works by Bertrand Russell and Arnold Toynbee into Polish. He died in London in 1976 and was buried at South Ealing Cemetery (division HH).

After the war, with Poland falling under communist rule, he decided to stay in Great Britain. He wrote columns for the émigré weekly Wiadomości Literackie ( Literary News). Between 1950 and 1972 he was chief editor of the "English section" of the influential Parisian émigré journal "Kultura". In the 1970s Mieroszewski was the closest collaborator of the journal's chief editor, Jerzy Giedroyc. While at the time Poland was an authoritarian communist state, controlled by the Soviet Union, Mieroszewski and Giedroyc, in the pages of the journal, sought to articulate a political programme for what they envisioned as a future independent Polish state and its relations with its former Kresy territories, annexed by Soviet Russia, known as the Gedroyc-Mieroszewski doctrine. Mieroszewski was not only a dedicated socialist, but was strongly opposed to communism and the Soviet domination of Eastern Europe. A crucial, and at the time unique, consideration of the Kultura programme was the Polish relationship with the national aspirations of the country's former minorities, the Belarusians, Lithuanians and Ukrainians. Mieroszewski was a political adversary of fellow socialist, Adam Pragier, with whom he engaged in political and literary polemics through their respective columns published in Paris and London.
