- Tadeusz_Kościuszko abstract "Andrzej Tadeusz Bonawentura Kościuszko (Andrew Thaddeus Bonaventure Kościuszko; February 4 or 12, 1746 – October 15, 1817) is a national hero in Poland, Lithuania, Belarus, and the United States, who fought in the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth's struggles against Russia and the Kingdom of Prussia and on the American side in the American Revolutionary War. He was a close friend and admirer of Thomas Jefferson, with whom he shared Enlightenment ideals of human rights. As Supreme Commander of the Polish National Armed Forces, he led the 1794 Kościuszko Uprising.His name has a common anglicized pronunciation, /ˌkɒziˈɒskoʊ/; the Polish pronunciation is [ˈandʐɛj taˈdɛuʂ bɔnavɛnˈtura kɔɕˈt͡ɕuʂkɔ] , which has been approximated in English as /kʊˈʃʊʃkoʊ/.Kościuszko was born in February 1746 in the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, in a village that is now in Belarus; his exact birthdate is unknown. He graduated from the Corps of Cadets in Warsaw, Poland. After the outbreak of a civil war involving the Bar Confederation in 1768, Kościuszko moved to France in 1769 to pursue further studies. He returned to Poland in 1774, two years after the First Partition of Poland, and took a position as tutor in the household of Józef Sylwester Sosnowski. After Kościuszko attempted to elope with his employer's daughter and was severely beaten by the father's retainers, he returned to France. On learning in France about the outbreak of the American Revolutionary War, in 1776 Kościuszko moved to North America, where he took part in the fighting as a colonel in the Continental Army. An accomplished military architect, he also built state-of-the-art fortifications, perhaps most notably at West Point, New York. In 1783, in recognition of his services, the Continental Congress promoted him to brigadier general.After returning to Poland in 1784, Kościuszko became a major general in the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth Army. Two years after the Polish–Russian War of 1792 had resulted in the Second Partition of Poland (1793), Kościuszko organized an uprising against Russia in March 1794, serving as its Naczelnik (Chief). Russian forces captured him at the Battle of Maciejowice in October 1794. The defeat of the Kościuszko Uprising in November 1794 led to the Third Partition of Poland in 1795, which ended the country's independent existence for 123 years until the Second Polish Republic was founded in the wake of World War I, in 1918.In 1796, following the death of Russia's Tsaritsa Catherine the Great, Kościuszko was pardoned by Tsar Paul I and emigrated to the United States. In 1798 he wrote a will dedicating his American assets to the education and freedom of slaves in the U.S. Its execution proved difficult and the funds were never used for that purpose. Kościuszko eventually returned to Europe and lived in Switzerland until his death in 1817.".
