Ostatnie lata w polskiej historiografii przyniosly ogromne zainteresowanie testamentami i inwentarzami pośmiertnymi. Te pierwsze są znakomitym źródłem do studiów nad życiem społeczeństwa w dawnych wiekach. Przede wszystkim przybliżają obraz mentalnosci i religijności. Pomagają w odtworzenie powiązań rodzinnych testatora oraz jego działalności gospodarczej. inwentarze pośmiertne umożliwiają ntomiast poznanie kultury materialnej i umysłowej. Ułatwiają rekonstrukcję stanu majątkowego danej osoby, a tkże budują obraz gospodarczy badanej epoki. Przedmiotem publikacji są dwa testamenty i inwentarz Jadwigi i Marcina Mitkiewiczów, którzy zajmowali się rzemiosłem piekarskim w XVIII - wiecznym Krakowie

The subject matter of this article are two wills and inventory of Jadwiga and Marcin MItkiewicz, who were the representatives of baker's trade of the 18th century Kraków. On the backdrop of other contemporaneous bakers the Mitkiewicz family stood out in term of accrued wealth. According to the inventory its value was estimated to the sum of more than 10000 zlotys. Owing to these documents stored in the State Archives in Kraków it was possible to give more insight into the previously unknown hostory of many tradesman families from Kraków

Błażej Zarzecki was one of the most influential Cracow bakers of the turn of the 17th and 18th centuries. He married twice, his first wife was Dorota and the second Elżbieta, and he had several children with both. Besides being a baker he was also a brewer and leaseholder of the “Morawieckiego” brewery. He went through all the steps of the clerical career in the guild. He was appointed a councillor, an assessor, a treasurer, a podstarszy and on 25th February 1710 he achieved the most respected position of prymas. At his death Zarzecki left a will, however, his second wife desisted from executing its provisions fearing legal action by the children from Błażej’s first marriage. Once the inventory of Zarzecki’s property was complete, the quarrel ended with the so-called “friendly agreement”, i.e. an act of reconciliation aiming at ending the dispute.

By focusing on this little known parliamentary publication of 1697 this article attempts to make an addition to the early history of the Polish press as well as unveil an interesting source to the history of Poland during the interregnum after the death of King Jan III Sobieski. The article examines the news coverage of the Dyáriusz Seimu Electionis (unearthed by Konrad Zawadzki) by confronting it with the information in other contemporary sources such as diaries, memoirs and broadsheets. The editors of the Dyáriusz arrange its contents under two separate headings, Home and Abroad. While the former category Home goes beyond the coverage of parliamentary stories, the Abroad section follows current events in Europe

The article is a survey and an attempt to bring closer the questions connected with the education of future tradesmen in Cracow from the 16th century until the first half of the 19th century. Thus far, there has been no thorough study devoted to this topic. In the 16th century, young adepts of trade would start learning this occupation in their father’s business, further family’s business or in the dynamically developing trading houses in Cracow. In the 16th c. and 17th c. there was no merchants’ guild in Cracow, which could oversee the process of learning the “art of trade”. Only the establishment of the Merchants’ Congregation in 1722 brought about changes in this respect. Ultimately, in the new statute of the Congregation from 1833, the new principles of training were formulated. Candidates had to present their birth certificate, the recommending certificate written by their parents or foster parents. Moreover, the candidate had to be able to read, write and calculate in Polish or German. Learning took three years in the 16th and 17th centuries; in the 18th century this period was prolonged, in the 19th century lasted from 4 to 6 years. According to the author, the problem still requires further in-depth research. After the archival query, it seems that there are good possibilities to obtain valuable material connected with mercantile art in Cracow.
