The article discusses the issue of the perception of the academic milieu of medical historians through the prism of the new post-war reality of the early 1950s. The author, based on the document – a report on a tour of scientific institutions by Dr. A. Smoluchowski – presents the then way of assessing medical historians, which to a large extent it depended on their individual views and attitude to the new Marxist ideology. In the end, the image of the community of Polish medical historians of the analyzed period turned out to be not the most interesting. It was supposed to be very conflicted, full of prejudices, blurring, disagreements, very attached to the pre-war way of practicing history, with little valuable achievements. How was it really? What could have been the cause of such an opinion? The author of the article tries to find an answer to these and other questions.

In a post-war reality, especially in the early 1950s, the issue of conducting medical history research in Poland was the subject of factual analysis. The Marxist-Leninist ideology enforced by the then-contemporary state authorities demanded such an approach. A special Medical Sciences History Committee was established on 18.01.1952 at the request of the Science Council of the Ministry of Health. It was located on Chocimska 22 street in Warsaw and was given the task to ‘Rebuild the history of medicine based on a new foundation’. Minutes from the sessions of the Committee and the discussed topics were recorded in a file kept by the Ministry of Health that was found in the Archives of Modern Records. The following topic is indeed worthy of investigation, as it was that Committee that gave rise to the shaping of history of medical sciences according to new rules of the post-war period. The Ministry of Health had received regular reports on the sessions of the Committee and the topics discussed.

An independent Department of Science and Higher education at the KC PZPR was created in 1949 to take responsibility for all matters related to the development of science and higher education in the post-war Stalinist Poland. The department was responsible not only for the development of new solutions in the domain of science and higher education, but it also created reports on the entire process of education itself, the level of the ideological education of the students, the number of graduates etc. College faculty was another major area of interest. The surviving documentation consists of i.a. copies of various international trip request forms, reports from scientific conferences, memos describing the scientific community of a given college, as well as various types of complaints and denunciations. The article focuses mainly on the professors from the various medical colleges and aims at presenting a snapshot of the then-contemporary medical elite in the scientific domain as seen by Party officials. To what extent was the presented image distorted and what was the reason for its creation? – those are only some of the questions that the article tries to answer.
