The article constitutes an attempt to initiate research on the attitude of the Toruń community towards the political authorities after the martial law, the basic subject of which is not the opposition but a broad cross-section of society. The aim of the article is to examine the moods and behavior of the personnel of Toruń’s enterprises, with special emphasis on employees not belonging to the political opposition. The files of the archival collection of the Provincial Committee of the Polish United Workers’ Party in Toruń and selected underground magazines were used for the research. The conclusions reveal the ambiguous and variable, if not radical, attitude of Toruń’s workers to the authorities in the discussed period, and the fact that dissatisfaction was based mainly on the economic grounds.

The paper discusses various aspects of the transmission of cults of Anatolian martyrs from Asia Minor to Egypt, based on the evidence of written non-literary sources, mostly inscriptions and papyri. It examines the patterns of selection of saints whose cults were transmitted and studies the character of this process and the possible channels of transmission. Among the discussed sources special attention is paid to the inscribed oil lamps found in the Egyptian chora, which indicate that cults of several Anatolian martyrs might have been transmitted to Egypt even without the existence of institutionalised places of their veneration. This and other facts imply that only a limited number of Anatolian martyrs (Theodore, Thecla, Quiricus, and Euphemia) enjoyed independent sanctuaries of considerable importance, which produced documentary evidence. The spreading of cults of other figures might have been the result of the activity of a single pottery workshop, situated in Upper Egypt.
