Career

[edit]

Between 1954 and 1957 Potrzebowski studied geology at the AGH University of Science and Technology. In 1957, he was arrested and interrogated by Służba Bezpieczeństwa for distributing leaflets against closing of the student magazine "Po Prostu"[need quotation to verify]. From 1958 to 1966 he served in the Polish air force; he left the army with the rank of poruchnik.[3] In 1972, he finished his studies with honors and received a master's degree of history at the University of Wrocław.

In 1973, Potrzebowski went to West Germany and started studies at the University of Mainz. In 1980 he received the title of PhD in philosophy. In 1985 he went to South Africa, where he worked e.g. at Deutsche Schule in Pretoria. In 1991 he returned to Poland and settled in Wrocław.[4] Potrzebowski continues his research in this field and also gives public lectures.[5]
