Summing up the questions concerning the function of the contemporary family, it is worth stressing that the pedagogy of family as a pedagogic sub-discipline has worked out, in a fairly brief period, a high position among other pedagogic disciplines. The Reverend Professor Józef Wilk rendered considerable services first in its development, then in showing its specific character. The Professor first worked at the Theology Faculty of KUL, and then at the Faculty of Social Sciences in the Department of the Pedagogy of Family. He co-founded theoretical reflection and developed practical activity. The notable fruit of his 33-year-long learned and didactic activity is a conference organised by the staff of the Department of the Pedagogy of Family KUL, then a publication. The latter shows the main areas of the Professor's learned interests and his research on behalf of the development of family. The value of this publication is its direction: at the object of the studies of the pedagogy of family, its methods in reference to the dynamic function of the contemporary family.
