Edmund Campion (1540-1581) was a Jesuit priest and fellow of St. John’s College in Oxford, who was, first and foremost, most famed in his time for his extraordinary rhetorical skills. Today, a glimpse of the exceptional oratorical skills of the man can be provided by books and very rare copies of which can be found in Poland’s libraries. This attests to the exceptional Polish interest in Campion’s works throughout the centuries. This article presents the partial results of original research findings in an area often neglected by English and Polish literary historians. It aims to provide a descriptive survey of Campion’s rare books which can be found in selected libraries in Poland. By employing methodology drawn from the disciplines of History of the Book and Philology, it is hoped that the reader can be thus more acquainted with the existence of the rare books found in Polish libraries and thus equip him with a better and deeper appreciation of the unique cultural and historical value of the rare books in Polish library holdings. The article begins by briefly describing the history of the provenance of some of the Campion rare books which we have today thanks to the bibliophile and collection initiatives of some of Poland’s eminent statesmen such as Tadeusz Czacki and Adam Kazimierz Czartoryski. This is then followed by a brief history of Campion and his times. Particular emphasis shall be made on the history of the printing of “Rationes Decem,” as it was printed secretly. Finally, a brief description of the relveant rare books, that is translations and later editions of the “Rationes” shall be briefly described. The wide interest, as best illustrated by Skarga’s mentioning of the text or the Pisecius’ reply, in the “Rationes” shall also be discussed as it testifies to the wide interest that the person of Campion and his text enjoyed in the times of the Polish Commonwealth.

The material presents the history of the 14th Jazłowiecki Uhlans Regiment and its connections with Congregation of the Sisters of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary, at the walls of which in 1919 the unit was fighting the Ukrainians from the Ukrainian Galician Army. In addition, the author has presented its connection with the cult of Virgin Mary in Poland, especially with the worship that the unit was showing to Virgin Mary of Jazłowiec after 1921. Due to the specific history of the 14th Jazłowiecki Uhlans Regiment, the monastery at Jazłowiec and the figure of Blessed Virgin Mary Immaculate Conception played an enormous role in shaping new generations of officers and professional non‑commissioned officers, as well as the conscripts serving in the unit. The Author has thus presented the forms of worship specific for the regiment, as well as the connections it had with the monastery its nuns before 1939.

W materiale tym ukazano dzieje 14 Pułku Ułanów Jazłowieckich oraz jego związki z klasztorem Zgromadzenia Sióstr Niepokalanego Poczęcia Najświętszej Marii Panny w Jazłowcu, pod murami którego w roku 1919 oddział ten walczył z Ukraińcami z Ukraińskiej Armii Halickiej. Poza tym autor przedstawił także jego związki z kultem maryjnym w Polsce, szczególnie zaś z kultem, jaki po roku 1921 okazywał Matce Boskiej Jazłowieckiej. Z racji specyficznej historii 14 Pułku Ułanów Jazłowieckich klasztor jazłowiecki oraz znajdująca się tam i otoczona powszechną czcią figura Matki Boskiej Niepokalanego Poczęcia odgrywała ogromną rolę w wychowaniu kolejnych pokoleń oficerów i podoficerów zawodowych oraz poborowych odbywających w pułku służbę wojskową. Autor przedstawił więc specyficzne dla tego pułku formy kultu, a także związki, jakie przed rokiem 1939 łączyły go z klasztorem i rezydującymi tam siostrami.
