NOTA O KARMELITACH REZYDENCJI KRWI CHRYSTUSA W POZNANIU W XVIII I XIX WIEKU
NOTE ON THE CARMELITE RESIDENCE OF THE PRECIOUS BLOOD IN POZNAŃ IN THE 18TH AND 19TH CENTURIES

Summary/Abstract: The manuscript Decretale provinciae strictioris observantiae (ref. 168), stored in the Carmelite Archives in Piasek in Krakow, contains the records of the chapters and definitoria of the Greater Poland province (and first vicariate) of the Carmelites strictioris observantiae from 1700–1846. An analysis of these files makes it possible to reconstruct the staffing list of the Poznań residence of the Most Precious Blood of Jesus for the years 1712–1817, as the relevant records appear in the files of this period. This makes it possible to supplement and verify the data that can be extracted from the Chronicle of the residence of the Carmelites of the ancient observance in Poznań at the Church of the Most Precious Blood of Jesus in Żydowska Street, the edition of which was published by Jacek Wiesiołowski in 2005. Both texts constitute the primary source base, which is supplemented to a limited extent by analogous religious records from manuscripts other than the one mentioned (Liber decretalis in quo ordinatione notabiles capitulorum provincialium congregationum etiam annualium etiam annualium et visitationum provincialium, 1742–1833, ref. 169; Liber decretalis..., 1742–1781, ref. 170; Liber decretalis..., 1769–1864, ref. 171; Liber decretalis, 1797–1862, ref. 172; Protocols of provincial chapters and meetings of provincial definitors, 1835–1864, ref. 173) and data collected by Grzegorz Kłoskowski in his 2012 article titled The Carmelites of the Ancient Observance in the Great Poland province in the 17th-19th centuries, Archiwa, Biblioteki i Muzea Kościelne, 98 (2012) pp. 149–270). The compilation included in the table constitutes a chronological representation the order of the heads of the residences and the other monks residing there according to the dates of establishment at the chapter or definitorium. The Carmelites living in the residence after 1817 until 1843 (Fortunat Lesnau, Cyryl Golonka and Antoni Zakrzewski) were the last to reside there (C. Golonka was the last to die). Notes on the heads of the residences refer to data on their age and length of superiority at the post.
