Abstract
In the interwar period the first specialized journals of mathematics were founded devoted to specific disciplines. In Poland in 1920 Fundamenta mathematicae was set up in Warsaw, devoted to set theory and related disciplines, mathematical logic, and foundations of mathematics. Its founder was Zygmunt Janiszewski of Warsaw University. His work was continued by two other professors at Warsaw, Waclaw Sierpinski and Stefan Mazurkiewicz. In 1929 Hugo Steinhaus of the Jan Kazimierz University of Lvov started a new specialized journal on functional analysis, entitled Studia mathematica.
