A Polish Woman In The 1917. Toplica Uprising To Mark The 95-anniversary Of The Toplica Uprising

Summary/Abstract: This paper describes the participation of a Polish woman in the 1917. Toplica uprising. Helen Loret, a Polish noblewoman, shared the fate of her fellow citizens of Prokuplje during the occupation in World War I. She made a personal contribution to the only uprising that occurred in the territories occupied by the Central Powers. Helen Loret was a member of the "women’s organization" in Prokuplje, which ac-tively expressed their protest against the brutality of the Bulgarian occupation admini-stration. After making the acquaintance of the četnik Duke Kosta Vojinović, she be-came a supporter of the resistance movement and helped as much as the circumstances allowed. This study is based on the secondary source materials, primarily newspapers articles as the most common medium at the time.
