Some letters by Twardowski

Twardowski's correspondence and many unpublished papers by him are housed by the Library of the Institute of Philosophy of the University of Warsaw , Krakowskie Przedmiescie 3. The papers have been transferred from Lvov to Warsaw in 1957 by Twardowski's daughter and son-in-law, Marja and Kazimierz Ajdukiewicz.

The correspondence 1888-1938 had been very recently catalogued by Teresa Danuta Woyciechowska and the catalogue has been published in the Polish journal Ruch Filozoficzny n. 1, LIV, 1997, pp. 13-42.

According to Wojciechowska, it consists of 5770 letters,subdivided in three parts:

Correspondence with Kasa im. Mianowskiego, labelled PTF 01 (91 letters)
Private correspondence, labelled PTF 02, volumes I-XLVI (5365 letters)
Part of the correspondence of Ruch filozoficzny, labelled PTF 03, volumes I-III (314 letters)

Twardowski's correspondence is being progressively microfilmed.

The collection of manuscripts and typescripts is not catalogued in a way which can be comparable to that of the correspondence.

The only catalogue that exist, consisting of some carbon copy sheets,is presumably coeval with Mr&Mrs Ajdukiewicz's donation of the Nachlass to the University of Warsaw (1957).

This is the basis of the PPP Catalogue of Twardowski's Unpublished Papers.

So far little information is available on this collection. The unpublished papers list given is taken from Jens Cavallin's Content and Object - Twardowski and Husserl, Kluwer 1997.

The Nachlass of Alexius Meinong is in the Library of the University of Graz, Universitätsplatz 3, Graz, Austria. Meinong's correspondence includes some letters from Twardowski.

Letters from Twardowski to Meinong (7198-7219)

Some transcriptions are now available on the PPP.

The Research and Documentation Centre for Austrian Philosophy in Graz houses collections of original Nachlässe and copies of posthumous papers and letters. These latter include some letters by Twardowski.
