READING STASZIC...

Summary/Abstract: Stanis³aw Staszic's works have been disappearing from the area of reflection on the tradition of Polish pedagogical studies in the last few decades. “Pedagogical” understanding of his writings has two aims. Firstly, it is evaluation of his contribution to the formation of Polish education law, school system and its organiza tion in the Grand Duchy of Warsaw and the Congress Kingdom of Poland (1807-1826). As it was the time of education politics formation in Europe, Staszic's acts and projects are worth reading, as well as his comparative analyses of contemporary to him school systems of Russia, Prussia, Austria, France, the Grand Duchy of Warsaw, with reference to the solutions of the National Education Committee (1773-1795). The second aim is to read his theoretical-philosophical and social aspects of human development and education, and to understand his deep assumption about education crucial role in the state and the society, included in the philosophical poem "Ród ludzki" (Human Race), as well as in the regulations written for some rural administrations. His interests concerned various areas of practical activity and theoretical reflection, of which different pedagogical branches originated in the 20th century. His woks need to be referred to when the origins of contemporary sub-disciplines are searched for.
