Academic career

From 1994 to 1995, he taught in the Language Teachers' Training College (Nauczycielskie Kolegium Języków Obcych), Opole, Poland, and between 1995 and 2007 at the University of Opole, Opole, Poland. From 2002 to 2006, he did postdoctoral research in the European University Institute, Florence, Italy; the John W. Kluge Center, Library of Congress, Washington, DC, United States; the Institute for Human Sciences (Institut für die Wissenschaften vom Menschen, IWM), Vienna, Austria; and the Herder-Institut (de), Marburg, Germany.
