The authors present an edited fragment of a log written by Antoni Waga (1799–1890) during his journey from Paris to Warsaw in 1868. The excerpt is an account of the scholar’s stay in Prague and Karlovy Vary. Written with consummate literary skill, the log of the naturalist and the fi rst Polish entomologist and botanist takes us straight into described places. Owing to Antoni Waga’s sense of observation and erudition, the log presents a broad spectrum of issues in a variety of fi elds. The scholar discusses nature, history, literature and the arts. The log contains descriptions of architectural monuments, museum collections, local plant and animal species. As a result, we have gained a promiscuous source of knowledge. The source text has been prepared in accordance with the principles contained in the instructions for publishing historical sources of the nineteenth and early twentieth century, compiled by Ireneusz Ihnatowicz.
