To celebrate this occasion, the PAS held a special session of its General Assembly on 24 May 2012. Organized under the honorary patronage of Polish President Bronisław Komorow- ski, the jubilee celebrations prompted not only rec- ollections of the Academy’s origins and history but also deliberations on its current tasks, place, and role in the world of modern science as well as its duties to society. All those refl ections were sum- marized in the book Tradycja – współczesność – przyszłość. Refleksje jubileuszowe 1952-2012 (“Tradition, Modernity, Future: Jubilee Refl ections 1952-2012”). Even so, the year 2012 was not exclusively or even predominantly a year of anniversary celebra- tions. It was the fi rst year of multidisciplinary eff orts after the completion of the crucial stage of the Acad- emy’s transformations, which began in October 2010. Th e General Assembly adopted the Code of K. Rainka Ethics for Researchers, an important document much-awaited by the academic milieu, as well as a set of “Strategic Directions of Development for the scientifi c units and their established position in the Polish Academy of Sciences,” a result and synoptic academic milieu. Seventy institutes and auxiliary overview of a debate that had taken place in the units of the Academy won 881 out of a total of Academy’s various bodies for a long time. Just as in 4,360 grants.

Save $1,000 per couple when booked by December 6, 2019 Howdy, Ags! In the 1930’s, the journey to World War II began in the private meeting rooms in Berlin and raucous public stadiums across Germany where the Nazis concocted and then promoted their designs for a new world order, one founded on conquest for land and racial-purity ideals. As they launched the war in Europe by invading Poland on September 1, 1939, Hitler and his followers unleashed a hell that would return to its birthplace in Berlin fewer than six years later. The Traveling Aggies are honored to partner with The National WWII Museum on a unique and poignant travel program, The Rise and Fall of Hitler’s Germany. This emotional journey will be led by WWII scholar and author Dr. Alexandra Richie, an expert on the Eastern Front and the Holocaust. Guests will travel through Germany and Poland, exploring historical sites and reflecting on how it was possible for the Nazis to rise to power and consequently bring destruction and misery across Europe.

    Memory of the World International Register Collections of the 19th century of the Polish Historical and Literary Society / Polish Library in Paris / Adam Mickiewicz Museum (Poland) 2012-26 1.0 Summary (max 200 words) The Polish Library in Paris (Bibliothèque Polonaise de Paris—BPP) was created in 1838 by Polish political émigrés who had found shelter in the French capital. This is where they could carry on various actions aiming at gaining back the independence of the State which had been lost at the end of the 18th century. Led by the wave of ideologies linked to independence and people’s freedom movements arisen in Europe in the early 19th century, it was established as a peaceful form aiming at fighting for freedom and independence. In the 19th century, Europe built places of memory such as libraries and archives in the independence States. At that time, the BPP acted as a means of substitution and continuity of the institutions destroyed by the foreign forces occupying the Polish territories. It came to birth thanks to the efforts carried out by the émigrés and the support of European intellectual elites as well as the authorities of the French State. The latter felt involved in the idea originating the creation of the BPP and they supported the action of a nation whose fight for independence, during the Uprising of 1831, had moved many European nations, aroused their admiration and strengthened their own aspirations for independence. The Polish Library gathered the scattered sources which enabled to document the history of Poland, along with the publications carried out by the emigration.

This study demonstrates how isotopic data can be employed alongside other forms of evidence to inform on past at great time depths, making it especially relevant to the Palaeolithic where there is a wealth of material potentially available for study.

    ODRODZENIE I REFORMACJA W POLSCE ■ SI 2017 ■ PL ISSN 0029-8514 Janusz Tazbir (1927–2016) I was deeply saddened to learn of the death of Janusz Tazbir, one of the most distinguished experts on cultural history in European his- toriography. My dear friend from when we were at school and from when we studied together at the University of Warsaw. His life is a perfect illustration of the experience of the generation of scholars who, despite the difficult times in which they worked, significantly enhanced our knowledge of the history of modern Europe. During wartime, as a young man, Janusz Tazbir was forced to inter- rupt his education and earn a living as a farm worker. This didn’t pre- vent him from using a rich body of literature (mainly classic authors of historical novels and great national poets), which, it should be added, wasn’t easily available during the war. After the conflict, he contin- ued his education, attending intensive secondary school courses. In the school year 1946/47 he was already in the final year at the Juliusz Słowacki School where he would astonish his friends and his teach- ers with his unusual erudition. It was early on during his school years that he decided to dedicate himself to the study of cultural history. In the spring of 1947, having received a secondary school certifi- cate, Tazbir began to study at the Institute of History of the Univer- sity of Warsaw. He completed his university education in less than four years, obtaining his Master’s degree under Professor Władysław Tomkiewicz.
