  Mostowski biography
Andrzej Mostowski's mother, Zofia Kramstyk, worked in a bank while his father, Stanislaw Mostowski, was an assistant in the Department of Physical Chemistry of the University of Lvov.
Andrzej was born one year before the outbreak of World War I and his father Stanislaw Mostowski joined the army in 1914.
Mostowski hoped to habilitate at the Underground University and was close to achieving this in July 1944 when events intervened.

In the light of later developments (including the generalised quantifiers pioneered by Mostowski) one can ask whether the differences between these versions are significant, and what semantic questions the versions answer.
Andrzej Mostowski was convinced that the property, also known as Crig's lemma cannot hold in algorithmic logic in spite of elegant proof of this property for logic of infinite disjunctions and conjunctions.
Finally, using the techniques offered by Mostowski in his 3rd Congress of Logic, methodology and Philosophy of Sciences paper (Amsterdam, 1968) the present author found that Mostowski was right.

She grew up in a family with an older brother Andrzej Trybulec who was interested in philosophy and mathematics.
Krystyna was brought up in Tarnow until she was 15 years old, when the family moved to Gdansk on the northern coast of Poland.
After attending high school for three years in Gdansk she entered the University of Warsaw in 1962, where her brother Andrzej was studying.

Under his supervision at the J.U. Jaśkowski (in 1945), A. Mostowski (in 1945), and J. Słupecki (in 1947) completed their habilitation theses, and R. Suszko (in 1945) received his master degree.
8 Thanks to Mostowski research in logic has gained high prestige in the department of mathematics at the Warsaw University, where he was the head of the Section of Algebra, the Section of the Foundations of Mathematics, and of the Institute of Mathematics at the Polish Academy of Sciences.

 Helena Rasiowa
That is where she was discovered by Andrzej Mostowski and brought back to the University.
She rewrote her Master's thesis in 1945 and in the next year she started her academic career as an assistant at the University of Warsaw, the institution she remained linked with for the rest of her life.
One of the crucial moments in the development of algebraic study of logic was the introduction of Lindenbaums and Tarskis method for treating equivalence classes of formulas as elements of an abstract algebraic system.

This idea can of course be traced back to Boole, but it was revived and generalized by Stone and Tarski in the 1930s; however, the most direct influence on their work came from their well-known colleague, Andrzej Mostowski, after WW II.
Mostowski's interpretation of quantification can as well be given for intutionistic as classical logic.
The talk will briefly review the history and content of these ideas and raise the question of why there was at that time no generalization made to higher-order logic and set theory.
