A close collaboration with schools has been a crucial element and a source of joy to all the people involved in our activities from the very beginning of the Our Mythical Childhood programme. [...] it was only natural to us to consolidate our efforts with support from the ERC Consolidator Grant. [...] All four schools [“Strumienie” High School in Józefów, Mikołaj Rej XI High School in Warsaw, Nicolaus Copernicus University Academic Junior and Senior High School in Toruń, and Bartłomiej Nowodworski I High School in Cracow] accepted the challenge of presenting four important figures from Polish history who were well versed in the classical tradition and whose lives may serve as biographies of, indeed, the illustres. [...] Besides the educational value of the texts gathered in the present book, there is something of a similar, if not major, importance – namely, the brightness and the light of optimism that this task brings to the worldwide discussions on the crisis in education. As long as such tasks and challenges are undertaken by the new generations, there is hope.
