Władysław Konopczyński (1880–1952) established contacts with Lviv with the help of Simon Askenazy, his master, who was a professor there. Under the direction of this researcher he wrote in 1908 his doctorate thesis titled Poland in the era of the Seven Years’ War. In 1910, after criticizing the book about bishop Kajetan Sołtyk written by Askenazy’s student, Kazimierz Rudnicki, he moved from Lviv to Cracow. There he received his habilitation in 1911. A year after receiving veniam legendi at the Department of Philosophy at the Jagiellonian University he settled in Cracow, limiting his contacts with Lviv to a minimum. He re-established them only after the First World War, when, as a delegate of the Cracow branch of the Polish Historical Society, he often joined the meetings of the General Board. But then his contacts with Lviv had the character of only short, casual meetings devoted to such actions as the organization of Polish Biographical Dictionary, the election of the Board of the Society and publishing activities. After 1910 the historian never stayed in the city over the River Poltva for longer.
