Staropolskie varia biograficzno-chronologiczne z nowożytnych źródeł proweniencji kościelnej (uzupełnienie do kompendiów bio-bibliograficznych i herbarzy)
Journal Title: Biuletyn Biblioteki Jagiellońskiej - Year 2016, Vol 66, Issue
Abstract
The present publication is a compilation of excerpts from Old Polish church sources which bring us new information and details about the biographies of members of the upper classes of Polish society at that time, i.e. kings, magnates, the higher clergy and also – to some extent – religious communities. These addenda – concerning the lives of several hundred people – would seem to be of use to prosopographical research, especially in the continuation of work on such important publications as The Polish Biographical Dictionary, The Polish Bibliography and The Officials of the Early Republic of Poland and chronological lists of the members of old Polish chapter houses. Notwithstanding the fact that the present publication is only a minor contribution, there can be no doubt as to its value, given that such information is often found by accident but is hardly ever actually searched for, though its absence in research has obvious negative consequences. The present sources come from Church and State archives in Częstochowa, Drohiczyn, Gdańsk, Gnieźnie, Kraków, Lublin, Olsztyn and Warsaw, as well as from the library of the former abbey of the Canons Regular of the Lateran in Czerwińsk. They have been provided with adequate critical notes and with references to the most essential compendia concerning genealogy and heraldry as well as to the aforementioned biographical and bibliographical publications.
