@ARTICLE{Molik_Witold_On_2023, author={Molik, Witold}, volume={tom 40}, journal={Pamiętnik Biblioteki Kórnickiej}, pages={9-33}, howpublished={online}, year={2023}, abstract={Although in recent decades Count Władysław Zamoyski has been attracting a lot of interest on the part of historians, which resulted in numerous papers and popular science works, he has not yet been the subject of an exhaustive scientific monograph. Its preparation is, however, going to be a difficult task for its future author. The many dispersed source materials and the Count’s more than 40 years long social, economic, and to a smaller extent political activity under the Prussian partition, in Galicia, among the Polish emigrants in France and during the first years of the Second Polish Republic – need to be described in the historical context, and, what follows, call for broad knowledge extending beyond these sources. Zamoyski’s path leading to his establishment in 1924 of the foundation ”Zakłady Kórnickie” – his life’s grandest work – should constitute the narrative axis weaving through all the chapters of his biography. It would be desirable to present extensively not only the Count’s activity in Galicia, Zakopane and his role in the famous dispute on Morskie Oko, but also his less researched and less known participation in the Polish-German fight for land in the Prussian partition in the late 19th and early 20th century.}, type={Artykuł}, title={On the Need for a Scientific Biography of Władysław Zamoyski (1853–1924)}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/130322/PDF-MASTER/01_Molik.pdf}, keywords={Władysław Zamoyski, biography and the concept behind it, research problems, Galicia, Prussian partition, Polish immigration in France, early years of the Second Polish Republic, foundation”Zakłady Kórnickie”}, }
