This biographical sketch of the life and work of Jerzy Kuryłowicz (1895–1978) is followed by appraisals by two other former students of his, one devoted to his contribution as an Indo-Europeanist, the other to his work as a general linguist. A select list of Kuryłowicz’s publication rounds out the picture of this century’s greatest Polish scholar in the science of language.
