Kazimir Walishewski

    19 de noviembre de 1849 – 1 de enero de 1935

    Kazimierz Klemens Waliszewski fue un historiador polaco que se centró principalmente en la historia rusa. Sus obras detalladas y académicas abarcan casi tres siglos de historia rusa, desde Iván el Terrible hasta finales del siglo XIX. Waliszewski dedicó más de treinta años a la investigación en archivos y bibliotecas de toda Europa, presentando sus hallazgos en obras escritas principalmente en francés. Más allá de la historia rusa, también exploró la historia polaca, defendiendo el pasado de su país contra interpretaciones hostiles rusas y alemanas.
