Summary/Abstract: In this paper the author recalls his meetings with J.F. Drewnowski, which took place near Warsaw. Drewnowski and others form the so-called Krakow circle (J. Salamucha, I.M. Bocheński, and also B. Sobociński were supported by J. Łukasiewicz and under the patronage of K. Michalski) intended to develop a program for improving Thomism by means of logic. After the war, the school of philosophy at the Catholic University of Lublin would be involved in its development, but over time it adopted a more and more critical approach. This is especially true of M.A. Krąpiec, the key Polish existential Thomist. The logician and methodologist S. Kamiński was less radical in his criticism, whereas J. Kalinowski maintained his logical approach. The author of this article, who is a member of the Lublin School of Philosophy, takes this opportunity to raise questions, make comparative remarks, and formulate general considerations.
