Description
Summary:In 2012, the Special Collections Department of the Raczynski Municipal Library in Poznań received a hand written volume (call number ms. 4498) documenting a research journey made by Karol Libelt in Galicia (Poland) in 1869. Shortly after his journey, the philosopher visited Kraków and Lwów with a series of lectures and was warmly received in both cities by the general public. On 17 April 1869, Karol Libelt was given an album, as a token of appreciation and thankfulness, with pages signed by 348 students of the Jagiellonian University and the Technical University in Cracow. The present article discusses the journey made by Libelt to Galicia and the album with the inscriptions of the Cracow students, including Michał Hieronim Bobrzyński, Karol Stanisław Olszewski, Tadeusz Browicz, Józef Krzepela and Piotr Hubal Dobrzański.
