Edmund Wacław Naganowski (26 September 1853 – 28 January 1915), was a Polish publicist and writer also known under pen names E. Działosz, Latarnik [1] and Edmund Sas (Sas most likely refers to his Sas coat of arms[2]).[3]

Life

Naganowski was born in Gostyń, Greater Poland, then in Grand Duchy of Posen, that after 1815 was part of the Kingdom of Prussia.[4] After finishing his studies in England, he was a teacher in a high school in Waterford in Ireland and he later worked at the British Museum.[1] On February 14, 1903 he became naturalized in Great Britain, under the name Edmund Sas de Naganowski.[5][6]

He served as secretary of the Literary Association of the Friends of Poland in London[7]

He is credited with the introduction of scouting in Poland.[7]

Monica Mary Gardner acknowledged the influence and support of Naganowski on her interests in Polish culture from 1899 to the outbreak of the First World War.[8]
