The article is an analysis of the function of elements of front matter and end matter in the collection of sixteen plays by Franciszka Urszula Radziwiłłowa. The collection was published shortly after the death of the author, thanks to the efforts of her assistant, Jakub Fryczyński, who actively supported the Princess at Nesvizh in her theatrical undertakings for many years. Published in 1754 and dedicated to the aristocrat’s daughters, the tome was the second consecutive initiative aiming at sharing Radziwiłłowa’s literary work with a wider audience. The first attempt was undertaken still in the author’s lifetime, and abandoned for reasons unknown to us today. An analysis of the dedication and foreword for the reader allows one to characterise the role of these elements in a publishing undertaking which was unusual for its time, depicting a member of a great aristocratic family not as a wife, mother, or respected matron, but as a learned woman, a bibliophile and, most of all, a writer.

The source of discussion in the article are lists of errors, included in publications from the second half of the eighteenth century, detailing mistakes identified in print and the corrections, and addressed to the future readers of these statements, written by printers, publishers, and authors. These two interconnected elements are characterised in the article as contributing to the front matter and end matter of literary and scholarly works, as well as to the structure of a book, and as an important symptom of entering works into circulation. After a discussion of the formal traits of the errata in books of the bygone era, the types and frequency of printing mistakes collected in the errata are explored, in conjunction with an attempt at determining the likely consequences of those errors, which were not included, on the reading of the texts. In the next part of the article, the focus is on the statements made to the readers in relation to the printing errors. The article also explores the source material as one of the elements of publishing practice, changing with time and subject to modernisation, which should also be acknowledged in contemporary editions of historical works.
