Abstract
Habsburg Galicia as a melting pot and meeting place of different languages is a privileged place to look for transcultural contacts in scholarship. Stepan Ivanyk, Warsaw-based Lviv philosopher and historian of philosophy, takes exactly this region to look at Ukrainian scholars in the Lviv-Warsaw School of analytic and mathematical philosophy, a school considered in the literature as a Polish phenomenon disregarding participation of scholars identifying with Jewish and Ukrainian cultures. In fact, with few notable exceptions the topic of intercultural contacts in culturally mixed regions of (not only Habsburg) Central Europe has been only scarcely a topic of historical inquiry.

In the nineteenth century the denotation Ukrainian was used mostly for Ukrainian-speakers from the Russian Empire, while in Galicia the denotation was Ruthenian language and Ruthenians. This differentiation only shortly outlived the World War I, when the common name for both groups became Ukrainian. For the sake of clarity, I use only the name Ukrainian in this review.

Interestingly, as Ivanyk notes, another candidate for the chair was Berlin-based Ukrainian philosopher Ivan Kopach (1870–1952). Unfortunately the author did not note the source of this information nor discussed it further (p. 30, fn. 84).
