The establishment of Latin Christianity in Poland had a profound impact on its development, and this is the subject of the present volume. The articles range from surveys tracing the main phases of this evolution and the Church’s expansion between the 10th and the 16th centuries, to particular studies of parish organisation and the role of the monastic orders - above all the Mendicants, whose importance Professor Kloczowski considers has been much underestimated. In addition, he has also been concerned to relate developments in Poland to those in the neighbouring parts of east-central Europe, in Bohemia, Hungary and, later, in Lithuania, and to trace the ties linking the area with the West, and especially with Italy. La fondation de la chrétienté latine en Pologne a eu un impact profond sur son développement; ceci forme le sujet du présent volume. Les articles vont d’évaluations retraçant les principales phases de cette évolution et de l’expansion de l’Eglise entre le 10e et le 16e siècle, à des études spécifiques sur l’organisation paroissiale et le rôle des ordres monastiques - surtout les Mendiants, dont l’importance, selon le professeur Kloczowski, a été beaucoup trop sousestimée. Il s’est aussi attaché à établir les rapports entre les développements en Pologne et ceux dans les parties avoisinantes de l’Europe de l’Est centrale, en Bohème, en Hongrie et, plus tard, en Lithuanie. Il tente aussi de retracer les liens unissant cette région à l’Ouest et, plus particulièrement à l’Italie.
These 15 French and three English studies look at the impact the establishment of Latin Christianity has had on the development of Poland. They survey the Church's expansion between the 10th and 16th centuries; parish organization and the role of the monastic orders.
