MISJA EDUKACYJNA KRAKOWSKICH I LWOWSKICH FILOLOGÓW KLASYCZNYCH NA ŁAMACH PRASY SPECJALISTYCZNEJ (1918–1939)
THE EDUCATIONAL MISSION OF CLASSICAL PHILOLOGISTS FROM LVIV AND CRACOW AS REFLECTED IN SPECIALIST PRESS IN YEARS 1918–1939

Summary/Abstract: The academic circle of classical philologists from the Jagiellonian University in Cracow and the University of Jan Kazimierz in Lviv, was dedicated not only to the research and teaching activity but also to popularizing classical antiquity studies. The university professors and lecturers were closely associated with secondary schools, where they were, at the same time, middle school teachers and authors of school course books. The significance of classical education was reinforced and promoted in their various fields of activity. This mission was mainly fulfilled by means of publications in specialist press, i.e. Kwartalnik Klasyczny [The Classical Quaterly], Przegląd Klasyczny [The Classical Review], Eos, Filomata and Palaestra. The journals comprised articles on popular science and didactics, reviews of publishing houses and information on organizational life (primarily on the Polish Philological Society and various school philological clubs). This was also where classical philologists shared their views on current educational issues in The Second Polish Republic.
