Popis: This text reviews the Russian translation of Maciej Gorny’s book The Great War of Professors. Humanities. 1912–1923. After recollecting the main theses of the work, the review raises a question about the extent to which the extra-scientific knowledge (political, ideological, nationalistic) influences scientific knowledge and whether this influence can be eliminated. Both the book and some current developments lead the review’s author toward rather disappointing conclusions.
