Summary/Abstract: The nineteen letters by Maria Dąbrowska and Stanisław Stempowski selected from the corpus of their correspondence were written in the years 1924–1939. They represent a sort of epistolary writings characteristic of them in which everyday problems are intertwined with reflections on their works, their coverage on literary and cultural events as well as current political and social issues. The whole correspondence by Dąbrowska and Stempowski from the years 1924–1951 amounts to a thousand and thirty eight extensive letters which, as in the lens, focus on histories of the Polish intelligentsia, its ambitions as well as their ethos of life and work.
