SCIENCE
Scholarship knows no boundaries: ssholars forgot about them long ago. The best evidence of this comes the large numbers of foreign researchers working in Polish institutions of higher education, and their Polish counterparts who lecture abroad. The success of Polish academics today has its roots in the past. The library catalogue of the Cathedral Chapter of Cracow dating back to 1110 shows that already in the early twelfth century Polish intellectuals had access to the European literature of that period - including the Classics like Ovid, Terence, Statius and Sallust. Polish scholarship has brought many academic achievements and discoveries of global importance.
