This article deals concisely with the criteria enabling to consider Catholic-Church saints or blessed to be martyr missionaries. The premises identified for the purpose were applied in selection of the most representative martyr missionaries for the mediaeval time, the modern era and our day, respectively. The thus broadly-set chronological frame is rooted in the fact that it has been the identical ideal that shone to all of these individuals - namely, the desire for martyrdom - regardless of the changing epochs and cultural conditions. For each period, several martyrs are discussed in more detail. The source materials, referred to by the Author, prove indicative indeed of their desire to die a martyr's death. Examples are quoted of the shaping of spirituality of this sort amongst alumnae of missionary clerical seminaries, using a peculiar iconographic programme. The article is crowned by an afterthought on a critical assessment of the ideal of mission-related martyrdom, as is present in our contemporary culture and historiography.

The article sums up the achievements of the historical circle of Polish Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate during the last century. It indicates the foundations of the Oblate historiography, which include the most important archival collections both in Poland and abroad, as well as studies by the most important Polish Oblate historians. Both achievements of historians-professionals and historians-amateurs are discussed. Several thematic aspects of the Oblate historiography are pointed to: basic syntheses, hagiographic and biographic works, studies on the work of Polish Oblates abroad. Also the main directions of further studies and their significance for the Church historiography in Poland are briefly discussed.
