Abstract:

Out of 130 posthumous inventories of Polish nobles living in Zakroczym Land, 18 included books. Those inventories require a lot of strenuous and not always successful attempts to identify the work mentioned in the inventory; however, they allow us to determine what type of books were popular among people and what intellectual, cultural and practical needs they fulfiled. In most of the cases, the books were concerned with religion, law and politics. Different books also included knowledge on administrative functions or farming. Others were concerned with advice on oratory skills. One exception among the discussed inventories is the one belonging to Czesław Ignacy Łempicki, a member of a well-respected local noble family. His book collection is an example of the emergence of new phenomena, i.e. widening geographical knowledge and the development of secular novels and different life models.
