Andrzej Wałkówski - My recollection of Professor Wacław Korta
Waclaw Korta bound his professional life to the Wroclaw University. His research interests centered on the Sleza Mountain, the socio-economic history
of the Middle Ages, historiography, the auxiliary sciences in historical research, and, above all, diplomatics. He also did editing work. In his
twilight years, he took on preparing a synthesis of the history of Silesia to the end of the 18th century, which was published posthumously. He
possessed the ability to "infect" his students with his science interests. Comitting oneself to studying the documents, allowed Korta's students to
develop their erudition. The demand for high quality work was not confined to the methods of work. The Professor endeavoured for the dissertartions'
topics to be innovative and to bring creative findings.
