The paper attempts to describe a fragment of the 16th century historiographic writing, perceived as a tool for shaping attitudes, spreading values, creating and consolidating collective memory. 16th century Polish catalogues of monarchs (Ikones) constitute the resource material. They performed the commemorative function, but were also used by the authorities as a channel for disseminating information about the history of the state and the society from the angle of the deeds of sovereigns. The figures of the rulers recorded in the catalogues may serve as universal patterns of both positive (the knight, the host, the father, the faithful) as well as negative attitudes. This form of writing was decisive in respect of what should be remembered and how, constructing common world view and hence developing the identity of the nation of the gentry.
