Związki Stanisława Estreichera z akademią umiejętności i Polską akademią umiejętności (w świetle jej akt)

Stanisław Estreicher, member of the Estreicher family, which rendered great service to Polish science and culture, was one of the most prominent Polish researchers in the history of law and vice-chancellor of the Jagiellonian University. This future professor for the first time appeared in the files of the Academy already in 1888. In 1914 he was elected associate member and in 1930 – full member of the Academy. Because of his diverse interests, Estreicher’s activity in the Academy included, i.a., his involvement with the Academy’s authorities and the Department of History and Philosophy, his work dealing with general publications of the Academy, publishing his own writings and source editions, activity on the forums of six commissions, representing the Academy and giving opinions on scientific works to be published by the Academy. His involvement in the Academy was growing but these ties did not dominate his diverse activities. From the point of view of the Academy, the most of important was Professor Estreicher’s participation in general publications’ issues and his increasing influence on the institution’s authorities, on the Department of History and Philosophy and the Legal Committee. On the other hand, from the point of view of Professor Estreicher himself, the most significant was “Polish Bibliography”.
