The purpose of this article is to present aspects related to building and maintaining health and leisure centre of the Przemyśl Diocese in Brzozów - largely based on voluntary taxation. The Diocese was the most successful in this area of health prevention in the interwar period. Within several months, the faithful of the Church and the clergy of this region - under the aegis of Bishop Anatol Nowak - managed to open in summer 1927 the magnificent spa facility with its own brine and baths accessible for clergy and seminarians. No Polish professional community recorded such success in the interwar period. The health and leisure centre was manager under the authority of the bishopric by the Congregation of the Sisters Servants of the Blessed Virgin Mary Immaculate from Nowa Wieś. During the occupation The Przemyśl Seminary was placed in the centre. In parallel, both German and Soviet soldiers used the spa facility. After the war, the spa did not manage to return to its pre-war splendor. It definitively ceased to exist in 1948.

The article contains an analysis of the iconostasis of the Assumption of Mary Church located in the vil. Nakonechne (Yavoriv district, Lviv region), which represents the most fully preserved iconostasis ensemble of the XVI century. For the first time, its reconstruction was completed taking into account all saved icons. The article deals with stylistic, iconographic and artistic features of this ensemble, as well as its connection with other iconostases of that time. More precisely, the dating of the monument is argued. In the article, the author suggests to consider an ensemble from Nakonechne as a phenomenon in the history of Ukrainian icon painting, which reflected the most characteristic tendencies that took place in the painting of the second half of the XVI century. The author traces his influence on the iconography of the end of the XVI – the beginning of the XVII century

Abstract. The article shows results of the GPR investigation in the Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary (XIV–XVI AD). Due to the wars in the 20th century, the majority of the documents connected with the church's history was lost. For this reason under the floor of the catholic temple, the unknown structures might still exist. To verify the presence of underground structures such as crypts and tombs, a GPR survey was carried out in chapels and aisles with 500 and 800 MHz GPR shielded antennas. During the investigation, numerous anomalies were detected. It was concluded that anomalies under the chapels were caused by the presence of the crypt beneath the floor. The presented work shows first results of GPR surveys in the church in Kłodzko.

The analysis of nineteenth-century personal names in Radviliškis parish was accomplished by selecting personal names from the church register of births of 1786–1798 and 1813–1814 periods. From the period of 1786–7188, 150 names of baptised boys, 292 names of fathers, and 302 names of godfathers, as well as 588 male surnames were selected. The period of 1813–1814 was represented by 199 names of baptised boys, 281 names of fathers, and 307 names of godfathers and by the surnames of 581 males. The analysis of the 1786–1798 period showed that adults were identified by a binomial personal name consisting of a name and a surname. Male names have Latin, Slavic, Germanic, Greek, Hebrew, Egyptian, Latvian and Celtic origin. At baptism, the boys were usually given the names of Latin origin. Their fathers mainly had names of Hebrew origin, and godfathers – names of Latin origin. We analysed 588 male names: 103 names had Slavic patronymic suffixes, 28 surnames Lithuanian suffixes, and 307 surnames had no clear suffixes, which allowed assigning them to any of the categories mentioned above. The analysis of the 1813–1814 period revealed that adults were identified by a binomial personal name – a name and a surname. The baptised children were given monomial names. We found 44 different names of boys, 48 different names of fathers, and 47 different names of godfathers in the analysed source and divided them by their origin. Latin names made the largest part of the male names. We found many names of Greek, Hebrew, and Germanic origin. The 588 male surnames located in the records were grouped by the available suffixes: 158 surnames had Lithuanian suffixes, 118 surnames had a Slavic suffix -sk, and 86 surnames had the Slavic patronymic suffixes -owicz, -ewicz; 186 surnames had no suffixes. This study aimed to encourage further research into the anthroponymy of Radviliškis. Hopefully, not only registers of birth will be analysed, but also other ecclesiastical books containing records essential for the study of personal names.

John Paul II remarked, in his famous Letter to Women, that the “sons of the Church” also contributed to undermining the dignity of women over the centuries. Can John Cassian be counted amongst them? It was he who spread the doctrine of the Desert Fathers in the West, and some, such as Anatole France, accuse them of entertaining hatred towards women. By analysing the writings of John Cassian, we discover, however, that, besides the many interesting texts of his, uncommon in Christian literature, in which he talks of God as a mother, and alongside the fervent invitation to Christians to honour the Blessed Virgin Mary, the texts which concern women contain not a trace of discrimination. In his writings, woman is not inferior to man, either by nature or by virtue. On the contrary, there are times when he holds them out as examples to be followed for their great faith and virtue. If, at times, he also presents woman with reference to some vice, he does so only to illustrate the virtue of some other person. Generally speaking, therefore, the vision of woman found in his writings is basically positive, and it finds a place naturally in his ascetical doctrine of mediocritas. It was certainly not he who, by his writings, contributed to undermining the dignity of women.

Abstract. The article presents results of a ground penetrating radar (GPR) investigation carried out in the Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Kłodzko, Poland, dating from the 14th to 16th centuries. Due to the 20th century wars, the current state of knowledge about the history of the church is still poor. Under the floor of the Catholic temple, unknown structures might exist. To verify the presence of underground structures such as crypts and tombs, a GPR survey was carried out in chapels and aisles with 500 and 800 MHz GPR shielded antennas. Numerous anomalies were detected. It was concluded that those under the chapels were caused by the presence of crypts beneath the floor.
