Roczniki Historyczne
“Roczniki Historyczne”, founded by an outstanding medievalist, Professor Kazimierz Tymieniecki, has been published since 1925.
The Journal quickly gained popularity on a broader scale and already before the war was already recognised as one of the most important Polish historical periodicals. Initially, until the outbreak of World War II, the Journal was published by the Society of Lovers of History in Poznań. After the war, the Journal was published by the Poznań Society for the Advancement of Arts and Sciences, and, since volume 20 (1955), it is the main periodical of its Faculty of History and Social Sciences.
In 2003, the Tadeusz Manteuffel Institute of History of the Polish Academy of Sciences joined as co-publisher.
Kazimierz Tymieniecki served as editor-in-chief until his death in 1968, sharing the editorial duties with Rev. Henryk Likowski (1925–1926), Kazimierz Kaczmarczyk (1925–1939), Zygmunt Wojciechowski (1946–1952), Kazimierz Piwarski (1956–1957), and finally Gerard Labuda (from 1958), who took over in 1969 and held the position of editor until 1986. In 1987–2002, the journal was edited by Antoni Gąsiorowski. Currently (as of 2003), Tomasz Jurek is its editor.
Initially, “Roczniki Historyczne”, especially in the inter-war period, published papers focusing on matters of the western Polish lands and Polish-German relations. With time, this feature became less prominent, while a certain chronological specialisation gained in importance. For several decades now, the Journal has focused primarily on Polish and universal history of the Middle Ages and Early Modern Times.
The journal publishes research papers (often extensive, at times exceeding 200,000 characters), articles, short notes, source texts, reviews of research, polemical writings and numerous reviews. The articles are provided with summaries in English.
Roczniki Historyczne are on the ERIH+ list, and the articles published in them are indexed in the CEEOL (Central and Eastern European Online Library), Elektronische Zeitschriftenbibliothek, BASE (Bielefeld Academic Search Engine), BazHum and Biblioteka Nauki databases.
