Abstract

I met Pawel in 1984, when he was teaching a class on the history of sociological thought at the UW Department of Sociology.
Many students from other departments came to these popular seminars, including me, a psychology student. A group of friends formed there, and we began to meet at private seminars, to which we invited speakers and discussed, including with Marcin Król about ideas, and with Stefan Marody about "Simply" and anti-Semitism or 1968. Friendly relations also fostered joint trips to the mountains - in summer or winter.
