Fučík Julius  (1903—1943)

Julius Fučík was a Czechoslovakian journalist, Czech communist party leader, and a leader in the forefront of the anti-Nazi resistance. He was imprisoned, tortured, and executed by the Nazis.

Julius Fucik was born into a working-class family. His father was a steel worker. In his early youth, he joined the Czech Communist Party and soon became the editor of Tvorba and the communist paper, Rudé právo . After Hitler's forces occupied Bohemia and Moravia, he was arrested by the Gestapo on April 24, 1942. He was sent to a Nazi prison in Pankrác, Prague, where he wrote his famous Notes from the Gallows, with the clandestine support of a sympathetic prison attendant, named Kolínský. Fucik was condemned to death by a Nazi court on August 25, 1943 and was executed two weeks later. After the war, his wife, Gusta Fučíková , who had also been in a Nazi concentration camp, researched and retrieved all of his prison writings and published them as Notes from the Gallows, which became a legendary piece of literature and a best seller.
