Who was Jan Stanisławski?

Jan Stanisławski was a Polish lexicographer.

Before World War II, as a lecturer in English at the Jagiellonian University in Kraków, Poland, Stanisławski compiled an English-Polish, Polish-English dictionary. This one-volume dictionary was reprinted during World War II in Great Britain.

Stanisławski subsequently augmented this modest dictionary into what became The Great English-Polish, Polish-English Dictionary published in Poland.
