Abstract
Reverend Jan Schindler (1802-1890) was regarded as a controversial figure even during his lifetime and has been considered as such to this day, especially in the Cracow environment. During the period known as the Republic of Cracow (1815-1846) he managed to make a brilliant career in a short time, mostly due to his contacts with the Austrian government. The year 1832 was a breakthrough in his career. It was then that thanks to archbishop Ankwicz’s backing, he got permission to move to the Free City of Cracow. The main reason of Schindler’s coming was the nomination for a position of a professor at the Jagiellonian university to lecture on the Bible and eastern languages.
