TI - Roman Pollak (1886–1972) and His Role in the Development of Polish-Italian Scientific and Cultural Relations
AB - This article characterizes the biography and endeavors of Roman Pollak (1886–1972) – an outstanding Polish literary scholar who also contributed greatly to the development of Polish-Italian scientific and cultural relations in the 20th century. His interest in Italian culture manifested itself at an early age, and he later expressed it in his scientific work. During the interwar period, he was a professor of Polish Language and Literature at the University of Rome and a delegate of the Ministry of Religious Affairs and Public Education to Italy. During his service, he contributed to the revival of the existing polonophile circles and institutions in Italy, as well as the creation of many new ones, which also operated after World War II. The year 2022 marks the 50th death anniversary of Pollak.
