Wladyslaw Maslowski (born November 8, 1933, in Katowice, Poland; died May 24, 1986) was a Polish journalist and a press researcher. He was a founder and editor-in-chief of the underground weekly, ''Mala Polska'' (http://www.malapolska.org/), which was instrumental in helping to organize the Solidarity movement in southern Poland.〔Tyranski, W.:( "Wladyslaw Maslowski" ), "Encyclopedia Solidarnosci": Retrieved on 2009-08-01.〕 Although he was born in Katowice where his father Stanislaw worked as the Katowice Bank Director, he spent most of his life in Krakow. Once the Nazis and the Soviets invaded Poland in September 1939, and Stanislaw Maslowski was murdered by Soviet NKVD in Katyn, Wladyslaw’s family moved back to Krakow to join other family members who were running a pharmacy store, still in existence today, at 4 Mikolajska Street.〔Mala Polska:( "Sylwetki, Wladyslaw Maslowski" ): Retrieved on 2009-08-01.〕 A graduate of the Jagiellonian University Law School in Krakow, Poland (1955),〔Tyranski, W.:( "Wladyslaw Maslowski" ), "Encyclopedia Solidarnosci": Retrieved on 2009-08-01.〕 Maslowski began his career as a journalist for the daily newspaper ''Echo Krakowa'' (1955–1965), and later as a researcher (1968–1981) and a head of the Analysis of the Press Content Department at the Press Research Center (http://www.obp.pl/02-english/informacje_eng.htm) in Krakow (1982–1986). Also a member of the editorial college for ''Zeszyty Prasoznawcze'' (http://www.obp.pl/01-polish/zeszyty.htm), the oldest Polish scholarly journal devoted to media and communication research, he was the author of over 40 peer-reviewed articles in this field. He was co-founder and chairman of the Press Club at the Polish Journalists Association (http://www.sdp.pl/history.php).〔Mala Polska:( "Sylwetki, Wladyslaw Maslowski" ): Retrieved on 2009-08-01.〕 Maslowski was a respected expert on shorthand writing, the author of many publications on phoneme fusion and word frequency in the Polish language, a co-author (with Krystyna Walaszkowa and Wladyslaw Szostak) of a shorthand writing manual based on the Polanski system.〔Tyranski, W.:( "Wladyslaw Maslowski" ), "Encyclopedia Solidarnosci": Retrieved on 2009-08-01.〕 In 1967 he initiated research on the frequency dictionary of the Polish language used by journalists, as such texts were most commonly shorthand written. In this way, the idea of the frequency dictionary of the Polish language came into being, which, in 1972, led to the publication of ''The Dictionary of the Contemporary Polish Journalism'' (''Slownictwo Wspolczesnej Publicystyki Polskiej''). The culmination of this long-term project was the publication of ''The Frequency Dictionary of the Contemporary Polish Language'' (''Slownik Frekwencyjny Polszczyzny Wspolczesnej''), authored by Ida Kurcz, Andrzej Lewicki, Jadwiga Sambor, Krzysztof Szafran, and Jerzy Woronczak, published in 1990 by the Polish Language Institute at the Polish Academy of Sciences (http://www.english.pan.pl/).〔Mala Polska:( "Sylwetki, Wladyslaw Maslowski" ): Retrieved on 2009-08-01.〕 After the 1980 strikes at Gdansk Shipyard, Maslowski participated in organizing Independent Self-Governing Trade Union “Solidarity” at the Press Research Center in Krakow. After the martial law in Poland (1981) he remained active in the Solidarity underground movement. He was a founder, an editor-in-chief, and a publisher of the Krakow underground weekly ''Mala Polska'' (http://www.malapolska.org/). He cooperated closely on this project with Wladyslaw Tyranski and Ewa Rylko, who continued editing and publishing ''Mala Polska'' after Maslowski’s untimely death on April 24, 1986. He edited 154 issues, out of 291, which were published between the years of 1983 and 1989.〔Mala Polska:( "Sylwetki, Wladyslaw Maslowski" ): Retrieved on 2009-08-01.〕 Maslowski was also an editor-in-chief of the underground monthly ''The Contemporary Archives'' (''Archiwum Wspolczesne'') which documented Polish everyday life of the Solidarity movement era. Eight issues were published between June 1984 and June 1985.〔Tyranski, W.:( "Wladyslaw Maslowski" ), "Encyclopedia Solidarnosci": Retrieved on 2009-08-01.〕 In the fall of 1985 Maslowski was arrested by the Polish Secret Police. The details of his arrest by the authorities will be released by the Institute of National Remembrance after Maria Maslowska, Wladyslaw’s widow, requested to make these records public. Wladyslaw Maslowski was buried in a family vault on the Rakowicki Cemetery.〔Mala Polska:( "Sylwetki, Wladyslaw Maslowski" ): Retrieved on 2009-08-01.〕 Wladyslaw enjoyed being a scoutmaster and a Beskids guide actively engaged in the Polish Tourist Sight-Seeing Society (PTTK).〔Tyranski, W.:( "Wladyslaw Maslowski" ), "Encyclopedia Solidarnosci": Retrieved on 2009-08-01.〕 == References == 〔 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 Masłowski」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
