За Ванда Зембжуска – българската журналистка от полски произход – и нейните репортажи от галиполския фронт
Wanda Zembrzuska – a Bulgarian journalist of Polish origin – and her reports from the Gallipoli frontline

Summary/Abstract: A descendant of an old Polish noble family, Wanda Zembrzuska was born in Sofia in 1889. During the First World War, she became famous as a military correspondent and journalist who sent reports to Bulgarian and Polish newspapers from the hottest spots on the frontlines. The least known and unexplored period in the biography and journalistic activity of the Bulgarian journalist of Polish origin is her trip to Istanbul in the hot summer of 1915, and her transfer to the Gallipoli frontline, from where she sent letters and reports for the Sofia newspaper „Utro“, reflecting the atmosphere in the capital of the Ottoman Empire during the war and the tense situation at the frontline. The reports by Wanda Zembrzuska, the world's first and only military correspondent at the Gallipoli War Theater, became important evidence of recent Turkish history. The text offers documents and photographs from the Bulgarian and Turkish archives, which are published for the first time.
