Summary/Abstract: The article is an attempt to describe the economic history of the Lublin region perceived through the prism of agriculture in the late period of the Polish state and, above all, during the Austrian Partition (1795-1809). The issues discussed here, preceded by the introductory outline of a broader context, focus on matters related to the economic condition of the village and manor at that time. In addition to the necessary components for crop production and livestock farming, the text also includes issues focused on legal position, social and state characteristics, and the close relationship between the worlds of a peasant cottage and a noble court. The chronological-problem article is synthetic. I hope that in this form the article may contribute to comparative research taking into account both Galicia (Old and New) and other partitions at the turn of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. It should also be a source of easily accessible knowledge, which the author addresses to a wider group of readers.
