Abstract
As is well known, Heinrich Scholz and his academic society maintained good scientific contacts with Polish logicians before, during, and after the Second World War. My interest here is to examine the details of their collaboration by presenting Scholz’s unpublished correspondence with Fr. Józef M. Bocheński. The following topics are discussed here: Polish logicians who survived the war and their current place of work; reorganization of the scholarly environment, didactic activities, duties, scholarly trips; current research topics, prospects for post-war publications, and future publishing plans; information about Jan Łukasiewicz, Bolesław Sobociński, and Joachim Metallmann; personal matters.
Highlights
As is generally well appreciated in the literature, Heinrich Scholz’s co-operation with the Polish logicians of the Lvov-Warsaw school was fruitful for both sides (Jadacki 2017; Schmidt am Busch and Wehmeier 2007)
I undertake to describe the content of the Bocheński–Scholz correspondence
At the beginning of 1947, Bocheński wrote to Scholz that he was teaching mathematical logic (BS 11/2/1947)
Summary
As is generally well appreciated in the literature, Heinrich Scholz’s co-operation with the Polish logicians of the Lvov-Warsaw school was fruitful for both sides (Jadacki 2017; Schmidt am Busch and Wehmeier 2007). Scholz · Polish logicians · Mathematical logic · Correspondence Bocheński wrote at least six more letters, Scholz at least one more, none of which have been found so far.
