Popis: The aim of this article is to present some of the fundamental aspects of Heinrich Scholz’s life and work to an international audience, providing archival sources and key publications about him. My intention is also to present sources – mainly letters – in an English translation for the first time. First, I discuss the autobiographical note that Scholz wrote around 1948; second, I provide a concise account of his intellectual trajectory; and third, I focus on some of the defining moral episodes in his personal life, which form the majority of this article. Successively, I deal with his role during the Nazi regime, his contacts with Polish and Dutch logicians (using unpublished correspondences), and several personal crises, which had a huge impact on his life and work.
