Maurycy Dzieduszycki (1813–1877) is an author of numerous historical works. In majority they deal with the history of catholic Church in Poland in the 15th and 16th century, which constituted, according to him, the most important part of human history. However, he can hardly be described as a historian. He was more interested in satisfying his passion for dispute and free expression of daring and unpopular opinions than in being objective and critical. As an ultramontane he emphasized most of all the attachment of the Polish nation to the catholic religion and proved the fairness of the loyalty and respect shown by Church in Poland toward the Apostle Capital.

The Ossolineum was a result of scientific patronage undertaken by the representatives of the cultural elite since the beginning of the 19th century creating institutions of scientific and artistic life independent from the annexing countries. Those were foundations, to a lesser degree subjects of political pressure, which could be presented by their founders as nationally indifferent. In reality, however, they played a key role in maintaining national identity, educating intelligentsia and gathering and protecting the heritage of “the nation without a country”. Inscribing in the tradition of the activity of Duchess Izabela Czartoryska in Puławy, Józef Maksymilian Ossoliński established one of the first and largest Polish libraries which since the very beginning was open to the scientific world. Along with the libraries of the Zamoyski family in Warsaw and of the Raczyński family and Tytus Działyński in the Poznańskie region they created a network of libraries (mutual contacts and exchanges of doublets) radiating onto Polish annexed territories. And similarly to those the Ossolineum being a result of the patronage generated similar initiatives with their contemporary people who donated there not only family libraries but also gathered for generation works of are and other collections. An integral part of the Ossolineum was Dukes Lubomirskis’ Museum whose owners committed themselves to support this institution thanks to the Przeworsk fee tail set up for this very purpose. The Ossolineum functioned without breaks throughout the 19th century realizing postulates of its founder and consecutive curators, namely Duke Henryk and Jerzy Henryk Lubomirski and Maurycy Dzieduszycki continuing the realization of a sentence inscribed above the Sibyl temple in Puławy: The past for the future.

According to acts by the founder of Ossolineum Józef Maksymilian Ossoliński the tasks of the literary (i.e. scientific) curatorship included managing and supervising the activities of the institution most of all in the scope of administrative-proprietary and personal matters. The position of the literary curators was taken by fee-tail heirs of the Lubomirski family form Przeworsk in years 1827–1944 (Henryk in years 1827–1859, Jerzy – 1847–1851 and 1869–1872 and Andrzej – 1882–1944) or legal guardians of the Przeworsk fee tail (Kazimierz Krasicki in years 1872–1882) except for the years 1851–1869 when the Austrian authorities trusted this position to Maurycy Dzieduszycki for political reasons. The main merit of the literary curatorship was to maintain the character of this institution as it was specified by Ossoliński as a Polish national establishment in the period of the anti-Polish policy realized by the Austrian administration in Galicia in the 1830s. Literary curators also took merit for gaining additional sources of funds for Ossolineum (among others, through obtaining the right to print school textbooks in 1876). In years 1847–1913 literary curators and vicecurators appointed by them took the responsibility of direct management of this institution. Although it caused competence conflicts with consecutive directors of Ossolineum, namely August Bielowski and Wojciech Kętrzyński, but at the same time it allowed them to focus on scientific works and elaborating library resources. Henryk Lubomirski and his son Jerzy also took merit in multiplying museum collections donating their vast collection of paintings, graphics and numismatics being the basis to launch their Museum in Ossolineum in 1869. A negative aspect of the literary curatorship of Andrzej Lubomirski was treating the Ossolineum building as a kind of private seat with harm to the literary and museum needs of the institution and making at times too arbitrary and thoughtless decisions in its matters.
