Sermones varii: Sermons in medieval manuscripts of the Dominican Archives in Cracow as evidence of preaching practices of the Polish Dominican friars

Journal Title: Z Badań nad Książką i Księgozbiorami Historycznymi - Year 2015, Vol 9, Issue

Abstract

Sermons are of particular interest to medievalists for quite some time now. These texts are examined as literary pieces, theological treatises, sources for the history of the mind, of everyday life, etc. A. Zajchowska attempts to look at them primarily as evidence of medieval preaching practice of the Dominicans who belonged to the Polish Province of the order. Sources for Zajchowska’s survey were furnished by the eighteen manuscript volumes of sermons extant at the Provincial Archives of the Dominicans in Cracow. On the basis of these collections she attempts to answer the questions: what, when, and to whom did the friars preach.
