Etnografia na łamach czasopism naukowych Polskiego Towarzystwa Geograficznego

Abstract

The article focuses on the review of the Geographic Materials prepared by the Scientific Journals of the Polish Geographic Society. PTG dates back to 1917 when Jan Lewinski, Stanisław Lencewicz, Boleslaw Olszewicz, Stanisław Poniatowski and Ludomir Sawicki took the initiative in establishing the Geographical Society in Warsaw. This organization from the very beginning of its existence published the ‘Geographic Review’ while PTG in Krakow published “Geographic News”. In both periodicals apart from the articles referring to Geography there were published materials of Anthropological and Ethnographic nature as well. A group of these periodicals has joined in 1947 the “Geographical Journal”, which during the interwar period was published by the Association of Polish Teachers of Geography the Geographical Society in Lwów and in Poznań. A lot of articles but to different extent, appeared in all these writings the authors of which were prominent Ethnographic researchers such as K. Moszyński, St. Udziela, J. St. Bystroń, J. Siemiradzki, A. Fischer.
