Abstrakt:

From the end of the 18th century to the Second World War, Poland suffered severe losses in the area of cultural heritage. Many collections of both institutional libraries and private antiquarians were transported from Poland, mainly to Russia, and some have never returned. The article presents the current state and perspectives of research on polonica kept in the Russian National Library (former Imperial Public Library) in St Petersburg, the foremost library of the country. The term ‘polonica’ encompasses manuscripts created up to the mid-16th century either in Poland or elsewhere but kept in Polish collections or featuring a text written either by or with a Polish author, or concerning Poland. Although the research has so far covered only a fraction of the collections of the Russian National Library, it has yielded 19 identified polonica. They supplement the list of 49 items known from Polish and Russian inventories, studies and records from the Manuscripta.pl database. The codices presented in the article deal with a vast range of issues related to theology, philosophy, astrology, medicine, morality, pastoral, law, history and the art of war; they also provide the text of monastic rules. The authors of the article characterise their content and cognitive value, outlining new avenues fur future research on St Petersburg polonica.
