1961

The Literary Institute is incorporated as a limited company in France and becomes independent of the Libella publishing house. It is only due to Jerzy Giedroyc’s pre-war Legion d’Honneur that he – a foreigner – can set up a limited company in France.
The Institute’s publications include Róża Luksemburg a Rewolucja Rosyjska (Rosa Luxemburg and the Russian Revolution) by Adam Ciołkosz, Eseje dla Kassandry (Essays for Cassandra) by Paweł Hostowiec (Jerzy Stempowski), Żydzi w kulturze polskiej (Jews in Polish Culture) by Aleksander Hertz, Pisma ostatnie (Last Writings) by Andrzej Stawar, and vol. 1 of  Historia Polski (History of Poland) by Paweł Zaremba. Andrzej Bobkowski dies in Guatemala.
