The article is a reminiscence on Professor Leon Płoszewski (1890–1970) – the editor of the National Edition of Works of Adam Mickiewicz and the editor of Collected Works of Stanisław Wyspiański – written by his daughter, Maria Płoszewska-Paulsson. The author portrays her father as a man of a Benedictine diligence (in “Spartan” conditions of a one-room editorial office!) and she brings up the less-known side of Professor Płoszewski’s outstanding professional work and the so far untold events in the Płoszewski family’s life, depicting him as:the husband of the ever busy “working woman” who tried in vain to slow down his professional overzealousness; • a parodist who privately mocked the realities of the then Polish People’s Republic; • a collector of the stylistic incongruities and blatant lies printed in the Polish press of the time; • an author of occasional witty poetry, hilarious commentaries, pastiches and dedications; • a gregarious man, a brilliant conversationalist, etc. The Tatra Mountains played a very important role in Leon Ploszewski’s life. Despite closing the Polish-Czechoslovak border after WWII, the Tatras were his refuge for freedom and a regenerating retreat. Leon Płoszewski was a person enamoured of the Western culture (particularly the French one). He felt acutely the isolation of Poland behind the Iron Curtain. It was as late as 1960 when, for the first time after WWII, he was allowed to travel to Paris. In a way it was thanks to Stanisław Wyspiański whose tracks he followed. This journey was for him an enormous emotional experience.
