Abstract

In this article, we shed light on Elza Kučera’s relationship with two distinguished Polish women intellectuals: Ludwika Dobrzyńska-Rybicka and Zofia Korczyńska. Kučera’s relationship with Dobrzyńska-Rybicka was notably warm and friendly, characterized by a deep personal connection. Conversely, Kučera’s relationship with Korczyńska was predominantly professional, based on their shared interests in the field of psychology. Through their preserved correspondence, we gain valuable insights into both their private and professional lives. This extensive communication afforded Kučera a comprehensive understanding of the situation and development of psychology in Poland during that era.
