Abstracts

The present document contains a discussion of the circumstances and the course of the 1819 dissolution of monasteries, drawn up by tsar Nicholas I’s order of 1827. The ruler wanted to find out who had been the originator of the suppression, what plans it involved, who and how debated the project, and to what degree the decisions made at that time were subsequently effectuated. It was the Government(al) Commission of Income and Treasury –which may come as a surprise– that was appointed to prepare the study, rather than the Government(al) Commission of Foreign Denominations and Public Enlightenment, responsible for the administration of the property of suppressed monasteries. The author of Historical outline, Paweł Głuszyński, elaborated a brief history of the dissolution process, which was supplemented with copies of the most important records (nonextant in the documentation) illustrating its course. It is noteworthy that the outline emphasises the significant role of the Holy See in the subsequent stages of work on the suppression decree, and later on the course of its execution. The document is located in the fond Komisja Rządowa Przychodów i Skarbu, no. 1304, f. 112-118v, kept at the Central Archives of Historical Records in Warsaw.
