Abstrakt:

The sixth volume of the new series Memorabilia Zoologica contains unpublished private correspondence of Benedykt Dybowski and Janusz Domaniewski from the years 1919–1929. The material complements the two previous issues of Memorabilia devoted to the correspondence of Benedykt Dybowski to Janusz Domaniewski in 1917–1918 and 1919–1920. Correspondence is a valuable source of knowledge about the situation in the environment of Polish naturalists– especially at the University of Warsaw and the local Zoological Cabinet, and at the Dzieduszycki Museum in Lviv.An important topic in the letters is the establishment of the National Museum of Natural History from the combined collections of the Zoological Cabinet of the University of Warsaw and the private Branicki’s Museum. Scholars exchange views on the ideas and vision of the new Museum, as well as the accompanying political, financial and organizational decisions. They devote a lot of space to personnel issues in the newly created institution, which allows you to get to know the relationships and mechanisms prevailing in this environment. There are also reflections on the future of Polish natural science research and ideas on how to develop it to meet high global standards.In addition to scientific matters, the letters are an interesting source of information on the mood that prevailed in the country during the war of 1920, or in the face of subsequent political, economic and social events in Poland, already independent.The letters constitute the resource of the Archives of the Museum and Institute of Zoology of the Polish Academy of Sciences.Apart from the scholars' correspondence, the publication also contains the biography of Benedykt Dybowski, written in 1930 by prof. Jan Grochmalicki and then published in the journal of the Polish Society of Naturalists Copernicus “Kosmos”.
