The authors present and analyse the Vesuvius eruption map ordered by Princess Anna Jabłonowska, found in the Krafft collection, in the National Museum of Natural History in Paris. The map was made after 1779, the date of the last eruption marked on it. It was commissioned by Anna Jabłonowska, a Polish aristocrat, an influential representative of the Enlightenment, the creator of one of the largest and most valuable natural science collections of 18th-century Europe. The author of the map is Filippo Morghen, a famous artist, engraver, collector and art dealer. It compares nine 18th-century eruptions from 1723, 1737, 1751, 1754, 1760, 1767, 1770, 1771, 1776 and August 8, 1779. It is one of the first cartographic documents showing changes in the morphology of Vesuvius as a result of successive eruptions. The authors analyse the map in the context of the development of volcanology, geology, technology, as well as artistic production related to the 18th-century Enlightenment fashion of scientific tourism in southern Italy.

Koncepcja organizacji pracy w instytucji naukowej - ankiety i opracowania z okresu okupacji (1941-1942) w Państwowym Muzeum Zoologicznym w Warszawie

During the Second World War, the State Zoological Museum in Warsaw (PMZ) suffered severe losses. Many workers were killed, and parts of the zoological and book collections were stolen by the Germans as early as 1939. The Museum became an important centre of the resistance movement, as it became a storage for weapons, explosives, and chemicals used for sabotage. Despite the repressions, the Museum employees tried to continue their work under the occupation and developed a modern model for the functioning of this institution to be implemented after the war. In the archives of the Museum and Institute of Zoology, a folder was found containing the documentation of the surveys conducted in 1941-1942 on the organisation of work and the future structure of the PMZ. This article presents the first analysis of these documents, which turned out to be a valuable source of information on the functioning of scientific institutions during the occupation, as well as on the history of the PMZ itself.
