Academic teachers discussed how to harmonise these (and many others) functions of higher education. The convention was attended by delegates of all most important higher schools in Poland and by representatives of the government, with President Ignacy Mościcki.

Artur Wolynski (1844-1893) was, undoubtedly, one of the most interesting personages of Polish émigrés after January Uprising. He belonged to these circles of Polish émigrés, who were able to reconcile their patriotic aspirations with realities and interest of the countries that entertained them. As far as Wolynski is concerned, it found its expression in the efforts that were made in order to assimilate two nations - Polish and Italian people - appealing to the common history and familiar cultural traditions. An important element of integrating all the above-discussed actions was his scientific activity. The mentioned activity included, first of all, his studies on Nicolaus Copernicus and Galileo Galilei. In the article were analyzed more comprehensive scientific descriptions dedicated to Copernicus and Galileo prepared by Wolynski, and their significance and opinions on them of the learned, whose works treated on Copernicus and Galileo as well. Secondly, in the field of scientific activity of Wolynski, one can also observe his researches and the process of elaborating sources for Polish and Italian history, particularly concerning the 17th century. However, most of his attention Wolynski paid to collecting and working out the materials concerning January Uprising. Speaking a modern language, one can say that Wolynski in a way polled the insurgents of January Uprising sending to them an appropriate list of questions, additionally allowing for their biographies. In the paper was also included a detailed description of this broad initiative together with its results. Up till now, not much attention has been paid to this significant scientific activity and its contexts. So, the present article is to remind of meritorious personage of Wolynski, and particularly of his output within the realm of history of science, history of Polish and Italian relationships, and of the role he played in bequeathing memory of January Uprising.

For the first quarter of the 20th century, the Curie Laboratory and the Ernest Rutherford Laboratory were the two main research centers for radioactivity. Both dealt with the same field, but had different priorities from the beginning. The Paris laboratory focused on discovering and studying the properties of new radioactive elements, while Rutherford in his laboratories in Montreal, and later in Manchester and Cambridge, tried, above all, to explain the very nature of radioactivity. There was a clear competition between the two laboratories, which, however, did not preclude personal and scholarly cooperation between their heads of research, i.e. Maria Skłodowska-Curie and Ernest Rutherford. The article discusses the main topics of this collaboration, such as developing a radium template, assigning scientific terminology, organizing scientific conferences, and preparing students. In addition, a few passages were devoted to the private relations between both scientists, which had a direct impact on their collaboration.

This article characterizes the biography and endeavors of Roman Pollak (1886–1972) – an outstanding Polish literary scholar who also contributed greatly to the development of Polish-Italian scientific and cultural relations in the 20th century. His interest in Italian culture manifested itself at an early age, and he later expressed it in his scientific work. During the interwar period, he was a professor of Polish Language and Literature at the University of Rome and a delegate of the Ministry of Religious Affairs and Public Education to Italy. During his service, he contributed to the revival of the existing polonophile circles and institutions in Italy, as well as the creation of many new ones, which also operated after World War II. The year 2022 marks the 50th death anniversary of Pollak.
