Komisja Edukacji Narodowej (The Commission of National Education) explores the history and significance of the first ministry of education in the world. Founded in 1773 by StanisÅ?aw August Poniatowski, the King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania, the Commission played a pivotal role in modernizing the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth through educational reforms.

This volume examines the Commission's structure, its key figures, and its lasting impact on Polish culture and society. It delves into the challenges the Commission faced and its contributions to shaping a modern, enlightened citizenry. Witkowska's work offers invaluable insights into a crucial period of Polish history and the enduring legacy of educational reform.
