\u201cEvenings on Lake Geneva\u201d is the best-known book by Father Marian Morawski (1845\u20131901), a Jesuit, professor at Jagiellonian University, and co-founder of *Przegl\u0105d Powszechny*. It takes the form of philosophical conversations held on the shores of Lake Geneva, in which the Christian worldview encounters nineteenth-century materialism and positivism. Morawski was one of the pioneers of Neothomism in Poland, and the book sparked a lively debate in both Catholic and secular circles. This second edition was published in 1897 by the W. L. Anczyc and Company printing house in Krak\u00f3w.<\/p>\n
