O tej, która wyszła z cienia. Pani Stefa Magdaleny Kicińskiej jako przykład biografii pedagogicznej
The one who came out of the shadows. Pani Stefa by Magdalena Kicińska as an example of ‘pedagogical biography’

Summary/Abstract: This article is an expanded review of a biography entitled Pani Stefa (author: Magdalena Kicińska). The book shows the life and achievements of Stefania Wilczyńska, a colleague and ‘right hand’ of Janusz Korczak, famous teacher and educator, who was killed during the World War II, in Treblinka extermination camp, together with the group of his most beloved pupils. Kicińska literally took Wilczyńska ‘out of the shadows’ – her life was for many years overshadowed by much more famous Korczak. The book Pani Stefa also corresponds with one of the most interesting problems related to contemporary biography theory. What we can say about ‘pedagogical biography – is it a ‘journalistic’ or ‘artistic’ writing?
