He wrote histories of Poland and of the modern world.〔 In his own time, he participated as a member of the Polish delegation at the Paris Peace Conference, 1919 and as a representative of Popular National Union in the Sejm between 1922 and 1927 during the Second Polish Republic. He argued for the recognition of the role of Roman Dmowski in the fight for Polish independence.〔(【引用サイトリンク】first1=Władysław )〕 In 1931 he founded ''Polski słownik biograficzny'' (The Polish Biographical Dictionary) and served as its first editor, seeing seven volumes through press, 1935–49, before being forced by Poland's postwar communist government to resign his editorship.〔〔 Many of his former and contemporary students also contributed to this work, including Emanuel Rostworowski, Władysław Czapliński, Józef Feldman, and Józef Andrzej Gierowski. During World War II, Konoczyński survived German imprisonment at Sachsenhausen concentration camp.〔 Released in February 1940, he returned to Kraków where he continued to teach history secretly, rebuking those who claimed that the circumstances of the war kept them from their studies. After the war, he was removed from all his academic and scholarly posts by Poland's communist government.〔 Konopczyński was a recipient of the French ''Légion d'honneur''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Władysław Konopczyński」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
