The article concerns the correspondence contacts of Poles from Poland under partition and from newly regained independence in 1918 with the outstanding Danish philosopher Harald Høffding. They are basically about getting in touch with science and thought in the West as soon as possible. As a result, his most important works were translated in Poland in a relatively short time. In his research, Høffding dealt with e.g. the problem of the relationship between the individual and the multiplicity, and the struggle to create harmony between the conflicting tendencies. On the Polish side, philosophers such as Wincenty Lutosławski or Czesław Znamierowski, as well as others, including the writer Henryk Sienkiewicz and Cardinal Mieczysław Ledóchowski, were interested.
