Summary/Abstract: On 7 February 1911, a resolution of the National Council established the Press and Information Office in Rome, which was a branch of the French Agence Polonaise de Presse. Head of the Agence was appointed Maciej Loret, a historian from Lwow and longtime member of the Rome Expedition of the Polish Academy of Learning in Kraków. Thanks to Loret’s efforts, the Italian public opinion as well as political and cultural circles got to know the Polish question, and the contacts he established with the press, academic institutions and the parliamentary world enabled a more effective propaganda campaign during the Great War.
