The 27th International Congress of Papyrology, under the High Patronage of the President of the Republic of Poland, gathered more than 300 scholars from the papyrology field in Warsaw. In keynote papers the experts in singular fields of papyrology were called upon to present the rest of our community with the novelties and curiosities rather than with a comprehensive and tedious list of the most recent literature. And so each morning of our five-day Congress was dedicated to one of the more general branches of papyrology; a common topic that would bring together a number of papers in which the speakers aimed to bring back the integrity to the shattered picture of papyrological science. We have decided to publish these snapshots of the discipline ad 2013 before the general Proceedings, creating thus a special issue of the Journal. We hope that in such a way these images would become more accessible to the scientific world of Classics.
