War Experiences of Adam Vetulani (1939–1945) In September 1939, Professor Adam Vetulani participated in the military campaign against Germany with the rank of platoon sergeant. On September 17, he crossed the border into Romania and was subsequently interned. In April 1940, he made his way to France through Yugoslavia and northern Italy. He joined the 2nd Infantry Rifle Division commanded by General Bronisław Prugar-Ketling. After the defeat of France, the entire division, including Vetulani, crossed into neutral Switzerland, where he was interned. He spent five years in the Helvetian country from 1940 to 1945. With the help of the Swiss authorities, he organized high school and university education for the interned soldiers. As a result of his efforts, several hundred Poles received university degrees, and dozens received doctorates. On behalf of the Polish government-in-exile, he also served as a representative of the National Culture Fund, offering modest stipends to academics. His dedication to organizational and scientific activities earned him the recognition and respect of his superiors.

“Golden” Wastepaper. On the Margins of Research on Polish Editions of the Hortulus animae Prayer Book Research on binding wastepaper has a long tradition in Poland, dating back to the 1820s, and the result is the discovery of fragments of many valuable manuscripts and prints. This article is devoted to the discoveries made, among others, by Władysław Nehring, Kazimierz Piekarski and Anna Lewicka-Kamińska, the fruit of which were previously unknown editions of the popular prayer book Hortulus animae, found and preserved only in the fragments they discovered. The most groundbreaking was Nehring’s find, thanks to which eight pages of the first Polish edition of Hortulus were published, but the importance of the remaining ones cannot be overestimated. It is noteworthy that out of eleven (certain and highly probable) editions, dating back to the first half of the 16th c., as many as six are known only thanks to single sheets extracted from their bindings.
“黄金”废纸。在波兰,对装订废纸的研究有着悠久的传统,可以追溯到19世纪20年代,结果是发现了许多有价值的手稿和印刷品的碎片。本文专门介绍Władysław Nehring, Kazimierz Piekarski和Anna Lewicka-Kamińska等人的发现,他们的成果是以前不为人知的流行祈祷书Hortulus animae的版本,只在他们发现的碎片中被发现和保存下来。最具开创性的发现是奈林的发现,多亏了他,波兰版《霍图鲁斯》第一版的八页得以出版,但其余部分的重要性怎么估计也不为过。值得注意的是,在可追溯到16世纪上半叶的11个(确定的和极有可能的)版本中,有多达6个版本仅通过从装订中提取的单张纸而为人所知。

Jan Jaśkiewicz’s Medical Studies at the University of Vienna (1766/1767–1775) During the Age of Enlightenment, many Poles pursued medical studies at various European universities. One of them was Jan Dominik Piotr Jaśkiewicz. Born on 6 July 1749 in Lviv to an Armenian family, he moved to Vienna in the late 1760s to study medicine at the university under the supervision of renowned professors: Anton de Haën, Heinrich Johann Nepomuk von Crantz, Nikolaus Joseph von Jacquin, and others. Jaśkiewicz graduated in 1775 with a Doctor of Medicine degree, based on the thesis titled “Dissertatio inauguralis medica sistens pharmaca regni vegetabilis”, in which he provided a list, description, and healing properties of some plant species, arranged according to the systematics of Carl von Linnè (Linnaeus). Through his dissertation, Jaśkiewicz popularized in Poland the views of the Viennese medical school, among others, on the medical use of digitalis. For some time he remained in Vienna, attempting to secure a suitable position. Between 1780 and 1783, Jaśkiewicz expanded his knowledge of nature through travels to Italy, Germany, and France. After presenting his mineralogical observations in Paris, Jaśkiewicz was appointed as a correspondent member of the Paris Academy of Sciences. It was during this time in Paris that Jaśkiewicz met Jan Śniadecki, who later became his friend, colleague, and patient. Subsequently, Hugo Kołłątaj appointed Jaśkiewicz as a professor of natural history and chemistry at the Crown’s Main School in Kraków (Jagiellonian University). He began his lectures in Kraków on 1 October 1783. It should be emphasized that Jaśkiewicz laid the foundations for Polish scientific vocabulary. He also played a crucial role in establishing a chemical laboratory and organizing a botanical garden and a cabinet of natural history. In February 1783, Jaśkiewicz took on the position of a hospital physician (director) at the St. Barbara Academic Hospital, where he focused on organizing the hospital’s finances and management. Around the same time, he declined additional remuneration for this role. In 1787, Jaśkiewicz assumed the duties of the house physician for the Wielopolski margrave in Pińczów. Jaśkiewicz died in Kraków on 14 November 1809. Throughout his life, he was an active physician and performed his medical career independently of other duties. Jaśkiewicz gained considerable recognition and popularity for his achievements in the medical field.
Jan Jaśkiewicz在维也纳大学的医学研究(1766/1767-1775)在启蒙时代,许多波兰人在欧洲各大学攻读医学。其中一位是Jan Dominik Piotr Jaśkiewicz。他于1749年7月6日出生在利沃夫的一个亚美尼亚家庭,在18世纪60年代末搬到维也纳,在著名教授安东·德Haën、海因里希·约翰·内波穆克·冯·克兰茨、尼古拉斯·约瑟夫·冯·杰金等人的指导下,在大学学习医学。Jaśkiewicz于1775年毕业,获得医学博士学位,他的论文题目是“Dissertatio inauguralis medica sistens pharmaca regni vegetabilis”,在论文中,他根据卡尔·冯Linnè(林奈)的系统学整理了一些植物物种的列表、描述和治疗特性。通过他的论文,Jaśkiewicz在波兰普及了维也纳医学院的观点,其中包括洋地黄的医疗用途。他在维也纳呆了一段时间,试图找到一个合适的职位。1780年至1783年间,Jaśkiewicz通过到意大利、德国和法国旅行,扩大了他对自然的了解。在巴黎发表了他的矿物学观察后,Jaśkiewicz被任命为巴黎科学院的通讯员。在巴黎的这段时间里,Jaśkiewicz遇到了Jan Śniadecki,后者后来成为他的朋友、同事和病人。随后,雨果Kołłątaj任命Jaśkiewicz为Kraków(雅盖隆大学)皇家主要学院的自然历史和化学教授。1783年10月1日,他开始在Kraków上讲课。应该强调的是,Jaśkiewicz为波兰科学词汇奠定了基础。他还在建立化学实验室、组织植物园和自然历史陈列室方面发挥了重要作用。1783年2月,Jaśkiewicz在圣芭芭拉学术医院担任医院医生(主任),主要负责组织医院的财务和管理。大约在同一时间,他拒绝了这个角色的额外报酬。1787年,Jaśkiewicz在Pińczów担任Wielopolski侯爵的御医。Jaśkiewicz于1809年11月14日死于Kraków。在他的一生中,他是一名活跃的医生,并独立于其他职责履行他的医疗事业。Jaśkiewicz因其在医学领域的成就而获得了相当大的认可和知名度。

The Administrative Career of Bonifacy Witkowski (1800–1840) – A Contribution to the History of Building Bureaucracy in the Kingdom of Poland Biographies of architects have a well-established tradition in the Polish historiography of architecture. This also applies to the historiography of Polish architecture at the turn of the 19th c., which predominantly revolves around biographical studies. However, architectural biographies of this period often concentrate on the architects active in big cities, while their colleagues working in provincial areas receive comparatively less research attention. The lack of in-depth exploration of this subject has a detrimental impact on our comprehensive understanding of the Polish architectural culture of that period, particularly its social aspects. Another notable trait of Polish architectural biographies concerning the turn of the 19th c. is the focus on the architects’ creative output (e.g. projects, buildings). Researchers have hitherto paid relatively less attention to tracing the trajectory of individual careers and specific conditions that shaped their development. The inclusion of these aspects in academic discourse offers valuable insights into the social and political backdrop that influenced architectural activity. This holds particular significance in relation to the era of the constitutional Kingdom of Poland (1815–1830), which witnessed a rapid development of modern bureaucracy in the field of building and architecture. This article delves into the well-documented case of Bonifacy Witkowski. Notably, he was among the first graduates of architecture from the University of Warsaw, and within a few years of his graduation, he attained the position of a chief provincial builder in the Province of Mazovia.

Using wax rollers, he recorded valuable insights and observations about their way of life. These recordings, preserved in Poland and read in Japan, played a pivotal role in sparking international interest and studies on the work of this pioneering ethnographer. Recent years have borne fruit in the form of a biographical monograph by Kazuhiko Sawada (Japanese edition in 2019, Polish edition in 2022) and an anthology of journalistic articles discussing social relations in Japan, initially printed in Russia since 1906 and later in Galicia and the Kingdom of Poland (since 1907). An English volume prepared by Alfred F. Majewicz will be published in The Collected Works of Bronisław Piłsudski. Furthermore, the published Diary of Piłsudski’s school years is included in the discussion.
