Life
Szyrma was professor of philosophy at Warsaw University from 1824 to 1831. He left no philosophical writings.[2]
Szyrma was one of nearly all the university professors of philosophy in Poland before the November 1830–31 Uprising who held a position that shunned both Positivism and metaphysical speculation, affined to the Scottish philosophers but linked in certain respects to Kantian critique.[3]
