Unknown (Forgotten?) Short Story by Bolesław Prus and Wacława Kiślańska’s “Jednodniówka” (“Special Issue”)

Summary/Abstract: The article contains a reprint of a short story by Bolesław Prus “Ramię i głowa” (“Shoulder and Head”) about Hindu subject matter, published after more than 100 years, unregistered to date in the writer’s bibliography, which admits right to a positivist buzzword “knowledge is power.” Its first edition is found in “Jednodniówka” (“Special Issue”) dated 1906 entitled “At Christmas for poor children.” The 1906 publication, prepared most probably by Wacława Kiślańska, a forgotten artist, woman of letters, translator and social activist, contains little known texts by over 10 authors, inter alia, by Bolesław Prus, Henryk Sienkiewicz, Maria Komornicka, Antoni M. Wysłouch, Natalia Dzierżkówna, Wacława Kiślańska.
