The Bartholomites’ education in Poland, on the example of the seminaries in Wegrow, Kielce and Sandomierz. An outline of issues

Summary/Abstract: The founder of the institute of common life for priests known as Bartholomites, bartoszkowie or communists, whose constitutions were approved on 7 July 1680 by Innocent XI, was Bartholomew Holzhauser. What set the institute apart from others was the establishment of seminaries and a great care for the quality of education of the alumni. The Bartholomites were brought to Poland by king John III Sobieski. The Jan Dobrogost Krasiński Foundation for Bartholomites in Wegrow made the city the centre of the institute’s activities. The majority of the staff teaching in the Kielce seminary came from the Wegrow Bartholomite seminary, and in the 19th century the Bartholomites from the Kielce seminary constituted the core of the newly created Sandomierz seminary. The institute of common life for priests finished its activity in the middle of the 19th century.
