It is well known: Janusz Korczak was a great educator who perished with his students in the gas chamber at Treblinka. He did not abandon the children, committing an absolute and unconditional act of heroism. He was 64 years old.
How did he live before this? His father went insane, and Korczak blamed himself for his mother's death until the end of his days. Throughout his life, he contemplated suicide and even attempted it. In his youth, he took a vow of celibacy, yet lived with a woman under the same roof for three decades. He adored other people's children but did not have his own. Despite being an unconditional humanist, Korczak fought in three wars. And finally, most importantly: Janusz Korczak, undoubtedly, was a great educator who introduced a completely new principle in dealing with children. The conclusions drawn by the educator Janusz Korczak will still be useful today to any parents dreaming of seeing close friends in their children.
Andrey Maksimov strives to understand this incredible, contradictory, and very interesting fate. So that the conversation is not only captivating but also beneficial to parents of the 21st century.
