Łęczyca is a city with rich historical traditions, located in the central part of Poland, in the Lodz voivodeship. The city and the land łęczycka do not have a dictionary of the most important figures associated with the region. The authors undertook elaboration of a biographical dictionary of land łęczycka, which will include biographies of persons, various associations with the city and the region. In the glossary will be presented only the deceased person. An important element of this research project is attention to memory and preservation of cultural heritage ‘little fatherland’, which for many is the land of Łęczyca.

Łęczyca to miasto o bogatych tradycjach historycznych, położone w centrum Polski w województwie łódzkim. Miasto i ziemia łęczycka nie posiadały dotychczas słownika najważniejszych postaci związanych z regionem. Autorzy artykułu podjęli się opracowania Słownika biograficznego ziemi łęczyckiej, w którym znajdą się biogramy osób posiadających różnorodne związki z miastem i jego otoczeniem. W Słowniku prezentowane będą jedynie biogramy osoby nieżyjących. Ważnym elementem tego przedsięwzięcia naukowego jest dbałość o pamięć i zachowanie dziedzictwa kulturowego „małej ojczyzny”, jaką dla wielu jest ziemia łęczycka.

The paper presents selected issues in the area of Polish biographical lexicography from the genological perspective. The author proposes to distinguish a new type – obituary and commemorative lexicography. She states that no monographic work on biographical lexicography has been published within the Polish scholarly society. The existing publications are only in the form of thematic/problem and review articles. The second part of the paper contains a list of 379 Polish dictionaries; the bibliography covers the years 1832–2021. The data presented are considered statistically important. The bibliographic list includes various types/forms of dictionaries – strictly biographical dictionaries, lexicons, encyclopedias, dictionary-encyclopedias, encyclopedic guides, reference books (e.g. Who is who?), directories of people (e.g. The Book of Siberians), personal loss books, cemetery books, lists of people, alphabetical lists of people, lists of surnames, nicknames, registers of the dead, deported and others, indexes of people (e.g. of repressed people) and others, inventories (e.g. names of labor camps), etc. Formally, publications of this type meet the requirements of studies in the field of lexicography because: 1/ they constitute a linearly ordered set (by lexicographic order), and 2/ they are specific databases storing specific information.
