Although in terms of quantity the number of works devoted to the problem of Livonia written by Marian Biskup is not considerable, his contribution to the revival of Polish research on Livonia in the Middle Ages and in the Early Modern Period cannot be overestimated. Marian Biskup’s interest in the field resulted from his research on the Teutonic Order in the 15th and 16th centuries, which caused that the region started to be appreciated in the history of Poland. However, the role of Marian Biskup in Polish research on Livonia is considerable mainly due to his organizational and inspiring activities, which included promoting the problem of Livonia in Zapiski Historyczne from the 1960s, independent publications and organization of conferences, inspiring and institutionalizing the research on Livonia of the Middle Ages and Early Modern Period within Toruń’s branch of the Institute of History of the Polish Academy of Sciences. The political breakthrough of 1989–1991 constituted an important turning point in Marian Biskup’s activities, for it allowed him to maintain wider contacts with Latvian and Estonian historians and to use Latvian and Estonian archival sources.
