Autorenporträt
Leonard Chodzko (1800 - 1871) was a Polish historian, geographer, cartographer, archivist, editor and activist exile. He was the son of a participant of the Kosciuszko Insurrection and studied law at Vilnius University from 1816 - 1817 where he met Adam Mickiewicz. In 1819 he became the personal secretary to Michal Kleofas Oginski, with whom he left Lithuania in 1822. After a four-year stay in Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and England, he settled permanently in Paris in 1826 where he took an active part in Émigré politics before and after the November Uprising of 1830.
