Abstrakty
The article presents 40 early printed books, acquired from different monasteries, which currently belong to the collection of the Franciscan Provincial Library in Gniezno. Initially, they were handed over from dissolved monasteries to – among other institutions – the Archdiocesan Archive Library and the Seminary Library in Gniezno, where they remained between 1836 and 1975. In 1975, the then Gniezno-Warszawa metropolitan archbishop, cardinal Stefan Wyszyński, returned to the Gniezno Franciscans the early printed books which they had been in possession of before the 1831 suppression. However, seven manuscripts and 63 incunabula remained in the libraries of the Gniezno Archdiocese. The manuscripts have been recorded in the catalogues of the seminary library prepared by Tadeusz Trzciński, Arkadiusz Marian Lisiecki, and Jadwiga Rył. The incunabula from the seminary library of the cathedral library in Gniezno are present in the catalogue created by Fr Leon Formanowicz before World War II, and supplemented in the 1960’s by Fr Julian Wojtkowski. Further information on the incunabula of the Franciscan monastery library in Gniezno can be found in a catalogue prepared by Jadwiga Rył. By way of compensation for these manuscripts and incunabula, the Gniezno monastery received 58 early printed books of different provenance from the duplicates owned by the Archdiocesan Archive Library and the Seminary Library. Among them there were items from dissolved Greater Poland monasteries as well as from Polish and private foreign book collections. Moreover, in 2008–2013, the author – librarian at the Franciscan Provincial Library in Gniezno – incorporated 17 early printed books, a bibliophile inheritance from the deceased fellow brothers, and books personally acquired at fairs from private collectors, into the library’s special collection section. Bibliographic descriptions presented in the catalogue of early printed books have been compared with foreign central catalogues available online. Descriptions of individual features of the items have been prepared in compliance with the Polish version of the international standard of early printed books description ISBD(A).
