Abstracts

EN

This is a second instalment of the article on the Warsaw Przyjaciel Dzieci, whose first part appeared in the previous issue of the RHHP. The author examines the popular science contents of the periodical in the area of natural science, geography and travel, ‘good behaviour’ and history, while paying close attention to the way in which the editors coped with censorship, especially in the field of history and geography. He also takes note of the critical voices which made themselves heard in the final stage of Gregorowicz’s career as editor-in-chief.
