The author analysed biographical texts about Maria Skłodowska-Curie
for the young reader published in the interwar era. On the basis of these
texts the author reconstructed Skłodowska’s professional life which led
her to the Noble awarded discoveries. This life was presented as a personal
model of a Polish woman at the turn of the 19th an 20th centuries; it was
propagated in literary education of children and teenagers. It was not an
innovatory biography (if we compare it to the biographies of other great
Poles, for example Chopin or Matejko); neither was her transgression attitude
used for the educational purposes. The Skłodowska created in these
texts, a student, a scholar and a mother, is schematic. Her childhood was
not depicted; as a result, there was no information related to her way to
fame. Maria Kuncewiczowa’s and Elżbieta Szemplińska’s literary stories,
as well as W. Tatarówna’s synthetic biography should be, however, distinguished.
The authors emphasized the achievements of Skłodowska, the
woman who consequently went beyond social and cultural obstacles, and
thanks to her achievements she served the world and Poland selflessly.
