Summary/Abstract: This article investigates Kazimierz Twardowski’s vision of patriotism and the role of the work ethic in his educational program. The pedagogical approach of the founder of the Lwów-Warsaw School is analyzed as a natural extension of his philosophical inquiries. The discussion emphasizes the significance of pedagogy within Twardowski’s intellectual outlook, focusing on its practical orientation toward knowledge acquisition and moral improvement. Particular attention is given to the fundamental principles of patriotic education and their intrinsic link to learning and a work ethic devoted to serving the homeland.
