Summary/Abstract: The Polish-Czechoslovak cultural and scientific relations were initiated upon the end of the Second World War. An agreement on the cultural cooperation between Prague and Warsaw was signed in July 1947. Most successful in the field of literature, the cooperation begot translations of literary works. In addition, contacts were established in other areas, such as theatre, cinema, photography, art, music and science. It is noteworthy that the cooperation was largely a matter of propaganda, intended to emphasise the achievements of socialism and the mutual friendship of fraternal socialist countries. Monopolized by the organs of state, it nevertheless formed the basis for establishing a number of personal relations between Polish and Czech and Slovak researchers and artists.
