Mendel Gdański
Mendel Gdański is a short story by Polish poet and short-story writer Maria Konopnicka published for the first time in 1890 in the Przegląd Literacki magazine. After three years it was published again in her poetry collection Na drodze ("On the Road").

The main reason for Maria Konopnicka's writing Mendel Gdański was the prevailing outbreak of anti-Semitism in Poland at that time. The opus tackles the matter remarkably current in the late 19th century of the assimilation of ethnic minorities. One of the people that inspired the author to write Mendel Gdański was a Polish writer Eliza Orzeszkowa who sent a letter to Konopnicka, in which she asked "in prose or in verse, write one or ten pages, your word carries much weight, many will find hope, it will inspire good emotions, and quench the bad…" (" czy prozą, czy wierszem, napisz jedną lub dziesięć kartek, słowo Twoje wiele zaważy, u wielu wiarę znajdzie, wiele uczuć wzbudzi, złych uśpi…").

Eliza Orzeszkowa
Eliza Orzeszkowa (6 June 1841 – 18 May 1910) was a Polish novelist and a leading writer of the Positivism movement during the foreign Partitions of Poland. In 1905, together with Henryk Sienkiewicz, she was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature.

Ludlow Griscom
Ludlow Griscom (June 17, 1890 – May 28, 1959) was an American ornithologist known as a pioneer in field ornithology.  His emphasis on the identification of free-flying birds by field marks became widely adopted by professionals and amateurs.  Many called him "Dean of the Birdwatchers."

Field mark
A field mark is a characteristic (e.g. in plumage) useful for species identification, usually birds.  They are often used in field guides or identification keys.  In a broader context, a field mark might be referred to as a character (e.g. "differential character" or "diagnostic character"). For birds this may include plumage, flight characteristics, proportions, voice, behaviour, etc., i.e., all characteristics that help identification. As opposed to in-hand marks, distinguishable when a specimen is held in the hand, field marks are especially those marks that remain useful in less than optimal conditions, for example when the subject is far removed, only partly visible or not sufficiently lit to see its colours.
