Short description: (in Polish)

Lecture and seminar is focused on the most fruitful period of the development of Polish logic in the history of this discipline. During the period (1924-1939) - in frame of activity of Lvov-Warsaw School, the most significant results arise, in particular regarding propositional logics and among them: classical propositional logic. The latter is a basic system for many modern logics and formal systems applied to philosophy and science. This is a good reason to broaden knowledge about the contribution of Polish logicians to research on this calculus. We present historical context of these researches. Next, we give an elementary introduction to modern description of classical propositional logic. Referring to this description we present selected systems of Łukasiewicz, Tarski, Leśniewski, Sobociński, Wajsberg and Jaśkowski.
