Abstract
The account of Alfred Tarski’s life begun in chapter 1 continues here.1 This chapter describes the latter years of Alfred’s studies at the University of Warsaw, and various other aspects of his life during 1921–1924. These include some personal details, his parttime employment as a teacher during his student years, his doctoral research, and his early participation in professional meetings. It provides a setting for both the detailed mathematics of Part Two of the book, and for Tarski’s professional career during 1924–1939 as a researcher and secondary-school teacher and teacher trainer, which are the subject of Part Three.
