Zygmunt Gloger jako osobowość twórcza. Wytyczanie dróg poznania pisarza

Abstract

The author of the article is the head of two scholarly-editorial projects centered on the works of Zygmunt Gloger (1845–1910), financed by the National Program for the Development of the Humanities. Gloger was a Polish publicist, folklorist, archeologist, historian, and collector. His bibliography lists about one thousand works. From 2012 to 2016, a three-volume edition of Uncollected Miscellaneous Writings (about five-thousands pages) was published in Białystok, followed by the second, seven-volume series (2020–2022). The author of the article discusses the watershed in Gloger studies that has taken place from 2012 to 2022, and the driving force of which was the poet and folklorist from Białystok, Jan Leończuk, Director of the Łukasz Górnicki Library, where both editions were finalized. Thanks to this initiative Gloger’s status in Polish literature and science has changed–now he is treated as a mature writer, researcher, who shaped Polish collective imagination.
