Only four out of 20 church buildings survived the war intact. The others were totally destroyed or severely damaged. The aim of this article is to verify whether the continuity of the functioning of Warsaw churches was maintained in the post-war crisis period until the abdication of King John II Casimir Vasa in 1668. The analysis of changes in urban space is based on the Urbanonto ontology, which is used to describe the changes taking place within the space of the European town between the late Middle Ages and the beginning of the twentieth century.

The underlying sources are: firstly, the Papal bull of Innocent VI of 6 July 1356 allowing Duke Siemowit III of Masovia to establish three Augustine monasteries: in Rawa, Warsaw and Ciechanów; and secondly, the privilege of indulgences granted on 8 October 1372 by Pope Gregory XI for the three Masovian congregations. Such a significant endowment was a manifestation of the Masovian duke’s power. In order to better present the context of these endowments, the political situation at that time has been explained (including, among other things, the new feudatory arrangement between Siemowit III and Kazimierz III the Great, concluded on 27 December 1355 in Kalisz) and the locations of the monasteries—each in a different diocese. If we look for the reasons why the Eremite Friars of the Order of St Augustine were chosen, we see that attention was paid to Siemowit III’s family connections. Until now, the role of the duke’s wife—Euphemia of the Opava branch of the Bohemian noble Přemyslid family—has been emphasized, because the Order was very popular in Bohemia, which also included Silesian Opava. In addition, a connection with Siemowit III’s brother-in-law, Kazimierz I of Teschen (Polish: Cieszyn, Bohemian: Těšín) husband of Euphemia, daughter of Trojden I, has been mentioned. The Duke of Teschen was one of the witnesses to the founding document of the Augustine church and monastery in Wrocław (German: Breslau) in 1351. Charles IV founded the church of the Eremite Friars of the Order of St Augustine after a failed meeting with Kazimierz III the Great, Jarosław of Bogoria and Bolko II, and the foundation itself was also a manifestation of the power of the Bohemian king. On the other hand the privilege of indulgences was granted more or less two years after the death of Kazimierz III the Great, when Siemowit III was no longer bound to Poland under a feudatory obligation. The article shows the links between Siemowit III’s policies and subsequent documents relating to the monasteries of the Eremite Friars of the Order of St Augustine in Masovia.

Writings of Archives II” (11–13 December 2017) and the 9th Anthropological Meeting in Zakopane “Archives. Deeds and conversations shall be (?) written down” (5–8 December 2019). The author states that the cultural dimension of archival reflection makes it possible to see beyond the horizon set by the borders of traditional archival studies. At the same time, the article makes the reader think about the need to re-evaluate commonplace terms used in archival studies and to answer the questions of what an archive is and what function it fulfils in extremely varied contemporary culture.

The book comprises the entries from the end of the 15th and the beginnings of the 16th century and amounts to nearly 200 sheets of the manuscript. The essence of the method is presentation of the source itself and the effects of work of the editors on the three interconnected layers: scan of the book, two attribute tables, and GIS map. The edition was elaborated with use of the INDXr application. The process of elaboration involved adding two layers to the digitised facsimile of the manuscript. The layers correspond to the two aforementioned tables in the database, which are the key part of the edition. The table of entries contains their list along some basic information on each of them (unique ID, the page scope, heading, date, comments) and a full reading of chosen entries. The second one – index table – contains the persons, geographical names and key terms indexes. The ...
