The Medical History Museum founded in 2011 within the structure of the Medical University of Warsaw (WUM), following the solutions introduced at the Humboldt University in Berlin and the University of Vienna, is planning to shortly introduce coordination of protection and display of the historic tangible heritage of the school. In both Berlin and Vienna in the early 21st century the project of university collection inventory was launched. Just over several years it yielded a large-scale digitizing process, foundation of theme websites, publications, and organization of temporary exhibitions promoting the historic university collections. The Association of University Museums established in Poland in 2014 has for several years been drawing inspiration from the German and Austrian models. The WUM Medical History Museum, resorting to the experience of the Berlin and Vienna universities, has applied numerous ideas for the integration of the historic collections, their identification, and recreation. Following the history of medical collections in Warsaw from the 1st half of the 19th century up to contemporary times, the Author analyses the model for this museum strategy, while also presenting examples of dangers resulting from the mismanagement of university historic heritage.

The present article discusses the academic dissertations related to Poland, its history and culture, written at the Philosophical Faculty of the University of Vienna within the framework of humanistic disciplines between 1872-1937. The publications on the subject hitherto published address primarily biographies of well-known Poles pursuing their academic career in Vienna, but there is no relevant comprehensive bibliographical information available. The starting point for the present work is the subject criterion, which has resulted in a compilation of dissertations on Polish subjects regardless of the origin of their authors. On the basis of the lists of dissertations from the period in question, 143 relevant works have been found: the majority of the material on historical issues (95), followed by Slavic studies, geography, German studies, musicology, history of art, anthropology and ethnology. The bulk of the discussed works, with a few exceptions, is not included in the retrospective bibliography Bibliografia polska 1901-1939 and Bibliografia polska XIX stulecia by Karol Estreicher. Hand-written CVs submitted by PhD students of the University at the time, constituting the material of interest not addressed so far, provided an enormous source of information for the author. The CVs, along with reviews, are currently held in the Viennese archives. A close scrutiny of the material made it possible to analyse the social background, life and the professional career of some, hitherto lesser known, authors of the dissertations. The article also presents individual profiles of Viennese professors who were research supervisors to dissertations related to Polish subject matters. The article is complemented with a detailed annotated list of the 143 mentioned dissertations given in a chronological order and subdivided into particular disciplines with an indication of their availability in the collections of the university library in Vienna.

Przedmiot niniejszego artykułu stanowią dysertacje poświęcone Polsce, jej historii i kulturze, powstające na Wydziale Filozoficznym Uniwersytetu Wiedeńskiego w ramach dyscyplin humanistycznych w okresie 1872-1937. Dotychczasowe publikacje na ten temat dotyczą przede wszystkim Polaków zdobywających stopnie naukowe w Wiedniu, brakuje jednak kompletnej informacji bibliograficznej w tym zakresie. W niniejszym opracowaniu za punkt wyjścia przyjęto kryterium przedmiotowe, pragnąc zebrać dysertacje poświęcone tematyce polskiej, niezależnie od pochodzenia ich autora. Na podstawie spisów dysertacji z tego okresu znaleziono 143 prace, w tym najwięcej z historii (95), ponadto ze slawistyki, z geografii, germanistyki, muzykologii, historii sztuki, filozofii oraz antropologii i etnologii. Większości z przytoczonych prac (z pojedynczymi wyjątkami) nie uwzględnia jak dotąd retrospektywna Bibliografia polska 1901-1939, ani też Bibliografia polska XIX stulecia Karola Estreichera. Na podstawie mało dotychczas przebadanego źródła wiedzy, jakim są własnoręczne curriculum vitae doktorantów, przechowywane wraz z recenzjami rozpraw w wiedeńskim archiwum, przeanalizowano pochodzenie, drogę życiową i przebieg kariery naukowej niektórych mniej znanych autorów rozpraw. Artykuł prezentuje też wybrane sylwetki wiedeńskich profesorów, pod których kierunkiem powstawały prace poświęcone polskiej tematyce. Całość uzupełnia szczegółowy spis 143 dysertacji, w układzie chronologicznym z podziałem na poszczególne dyscypliny, ze wskazaniem możliwości dotarcia do prac obecnych w zbiorach wiedeńskiej Biblioteki Uniwersyteckiej.

Eugen Bormann, Professor of Ancient History and Epigraphy at the University of Vienna from 1885 to 1914, left a great scientific legacy after his demise. Because of the private correspondence of his widow Auguste with her daughter Emma, we know details about the sale of this legacy. The legacy was bought by the textile industrialist Hugo Ritter Grab von Hermannswörth, who donated it to the German University in Prague. Some of this legacy has not yet been found. But what we have in abundance is Bormann’s correspondence in the archives of Charles University in Prague. This article will not only trace the story of the sale of the ‘Bormann papers’, it will also cast light on a few selected bundles, e.g. gifts for Bormanns 70th birthday, school certificates, letters from Otto Benndorf, Alexander Conze, Michael Rostovtzeff, or Marie von Ebner -Eschenbach. This will show what tremendous treasure slumbers for the biographical research on Eugen Bormann in the Prague archive. The author’s goal is to lift this treasure in the next few years.
