Section 22.: Auxiliary Sciences of History in Research on the History of Poland from the 10th to the 13th Century: Past – Present – Future

In the planned presentation, the Author intends to explore the significance of the increasingly popular field of fragmentology (the study of manuscript fragments), which has emerged from codicological and palaeographical research. This will be examined in the context of existing knowledge about the presence and familiarity with manuscript books in the state of the first Piasts (10th–13th centuries). To this end, the Author will make use of a collection of manuscript fragments preserved at the Research Laboratory for Auxiliary Sciences of History and Source Studies at Jagiellonian University.
