Dorobek rękopiśmienny śląskich klasztorów żeńskich (XIII-XVIII w.)
Sutowicz, Anna (Papieski Wydział Teologiczny we Wrocławiu, 2008)
Nunnery movement in Silesia started in the very beginning of the 13th century. At first there came Cistercian nuns to Trzebnica in 1202 and then Norbertian nuns to Rybnik a year later, from where they were moved to Czarnowąsy. By the end of the 14th century there came to an existence thirteen other monasteries representing three general kinds of European monasticism: Beggary, Canonical and Benedictine convents. It had to be a library in every cloister, since the nuns were to use books during prayers and for spiritual reading. They would buy the manuscripts or get them as a gift, in some convents there existed scriptoria. We can be sure that Franciscan nuns in Wroclaw had their own scriptorium already in the 14th century, Benedictine nuns could produce their books in the 17th century and Cistercian nuns in the 18th century. Unfortunately the immense part of Silesian nunneries property of manuscript books has been lost. Some of them dispersed already during the Middle Ages cause to many wars and other cataclysms, the other pieces were lost during the secularisation action in 1810-12. Nowadays we cannot point in what conditions the library of Dominican nuns disappeared, the ones of Magdalene nuns in Szprotawa and Lubań, Benedictines in Strzegom and Lubomierz. We dispose only one manuscript owned by Augustian nuns in Wroclaw in the 18th century and one by those in Nowogrodziec. We do not have any work of Norbertian nuns from Czamowąsy since their library must have been lost during the first decades of the 19th century. The other convents lost 90 percent of their manuscript property: we can point only 20 books of Franciscan nuns in Wrocław, 13 ones belonged to Benedictines in Legnica, and 60 pieces taken from Trzebnica. Most of the books are liturgical manuscripts, the oldest ones derive from the 12th century. Franciscan nuns in Wroclaw owned and most probably prepared themselves some pieces of hagiography and history of their convent in the Middle Ages. They provided also a catalogue of priories. The Cistercian nuns ordered to prepare similar work in the end of the 18th century in Lubiąż. The Silesian nunneries did not use to prepare and gather many manuscript books. In the comparison with men s monastic movement they were not interested in studying or using books for other activities than God service. That is the reason we dispose mostly liturgical manuscripts and only few examples of cloister historiography and saints legends. Still we hope to find some more works among those that are not signed or included in the Library of Wrocław University catalogue.
Fundacja i funkcjonowanie wrocławskiego sierocińca Matki Boskiej Bolesnej do roku 1815
Sutowicz, Anna (Papieski Wydział Teologiczny we Wrocławiu, 2017)
The orphanage was founded in 1698 by a group of nobles connected with the General Vicar in Wrocław. The institution was aimed to take care after boys from burgher families of protestant confession. The first superior, Friedrich Hemigsohn von Göe from Jesuit community built a proper house, which was placed in the Szewska Street (now the Uniwersytecki Square, 15). The orphanage was given a name and organised by Jesuit workers in the period 1706–1731, when the General Vicar signed on the charter document. In this period they accepted children under 15 of both sexes, boys took their basic education in burgher jobs and girls in home service. The superior was responsible for general state of the institution to the bishop. Besides, several officials used to serve in the orphanage. At the beginnig the institution could function due to private pays. The first important bequest was signed by the bishop Franz Ludwig before 1732 and then by the noble woman, Maria Anna von Wesch in 1754. Thanks to those pays the orphanage delivered a care on high level so that it developed into some kind of educational institution for catholic children from the Wrocław diocese.
Książka drukowana w zbiorach bibliotecznych klarysek wrocławskich w XVI–XVII wieku
Sutowicz, Anna (Papieski Wydział Teologiczny we Wrocławiu, 2022)
Opactwo św. Klary we Wrocławiu, jako jeden z ważniejszych ośrodków monastycznych na Śląsku, reprezentowało w okresie nowożytnym elitarną kulturę religijną. Po przyjęciu w 1677 roku konstytucji zgodnych z ustawami soboru trydenckiego mniszki weszły w nowy etap rozwoju życia wewnętrznego, który przyniósł także wzbogacenie zbiorów biblioteki klasztornej o nowe tytuły. Analiza zachowanych jednostek ze zbioru starodruków tej proweniencji pozwala dostrzec konserwatywny i monastyczny profil kultury klarysek, które pozostawały otwarte na nowe prądy duchowości oraz kontemplatywną formę modlitwy osobistej. Wśród autorów mniszki wyróżniały członków Towarzystwa Jezusowego oraz benedyktynów, poszukując ich przede wszystkim w kręgu kultury niemieckojęzycznej.
Recepcja elementów mistyki średniowiecznej w inkunabule „Auslegung der heiligen Messe” z biblioteki klarysek wrocławskich
Sutowicz, Anna (Papieski Wydział Teologiczny we Wrocławiu, 2016)
The presented analysis is based on the incunabulum Auslegung der heiligen Messe that was issued in 1495 and preserved until 1810 in the library of the Clarissan cloister in Wrocław. Now it is kept in the Library of the Wrocław University. We are given an interesting model of creating individual prayer based on contemplating common parts of a mass liturgy. The unkonwn author has derived most elements of his text from the mistique school of St. Bernhard, the abbey of St. Victor by Paris and the Dominican master Ekchardt, although he used the mistical treatises very freely. We can recognise the medieval German tradition of understanding liturgy in meditating every part of a mass by watching all gestures of a priest and keeping on oral supplicating. We are also given the aim of the prayer – cleansing of sinns and evil, earning a favour of the Holy Trinity and spiritual changing. The vision of a holy mass has been presented as the life and work of Jesus Christ but in fact we don`t find a distinct encourage to imitate the Saviour. The deep medieval tradition is shown in preventing from frequent receiving Holy Communion.
Seventeenth-century Prayer Books of Cistercian Nuns in the Collection of the Parish Library of St Bartholomew and St Hedwig in Trzebnica
Sutowicz, Anna (Papieski Wydział Teologiczny we Wrocławiu, 2020)
Part of a collection held by Cistercian nuns was deposited in the Library of Trzebnica Parish. Among other works there are three manuscript prayer books dated to the 17th century. Spiritual Meditations, dedicated to Katarzyna Rajska by Cistercian monk Kasper of Przemęt, is composed of several parts. Among them, the most interesting are Eucharistic ponderings and a treatise on the preparation for a holy death. The work Instruction of Spiritual Exercise is unsigned, nor do we know its owner. The main body of this manuscript consists of 40 meditations focused on the reform of religious life. The last exemplar in the collection belonged to Abbess Krystyna Pawłowska and was the gift of a Carmelite nun, Agnieszka of Jesus the Lamb. Its author, Bonawentura Frezer, a Discalced Carmelite, is a known seventeenth-century preacher and writer of mystical literature. His Protestations and various acts constitute a collection of mystical monologues on the presence of God. All of these manuscripts were made as an aid for the personal prayers of the Trzebnica nuns and had been long in use. The texts form appropriate research material for historians of religious spirituality in the Baroque period.
