Ruch wydawniczy w Krakowie w pierwszych latach niepodległości
The publishing movement in Krakow in the first years of independence

Summary/Abstract: This article analyzes the publishing movement in Krakow from 1919–1920. In that period, 348 titles were published in Krakow, primarily by professional publishers. These were mainly publications in the field of humanities and literature. A large amount of journalism was also published on the topic of current political and social issues. A significant decrease in the number of titles was noted compared to the years before the First World War, mainly due to the lack of paper and its high price, as well as the significant increase in printing costs. This affected the publishing practices in all publishing centers. In addition, as the capital of the reborn state, Warsaw attracted writers and scholars who published their works there instead of in Krakow.
