Archive of the Matrimonial Court of Sălişte. Sources for the History of Women in Modern Transylvania
Very little is known about the family life of Transylvanian women in the modern era. The main explanation is related to the insufficient exploitation of sources. Due to the richness, variety and complexity of the judicial-ecclesiastical archives, we have started building a database on divorce in Airtable based on records from the Sălişte, the main village of Mărginimea Sibiului, which has a unique, well-preserved documentary heritage. The ecclesiastical archive is kept at the Museum of the Orthodox Deanery of Sălişte in good condition, undamaged. Although the dissolution of marriage was a marginal phenomenon, the time has come to open the discussion for a debate on the sources and to take some steps forward in this research avenue. The article provides a description of the most important documents related to divorce, with a focus on content, structure, form, style, classification. The advantages but also the limits of matrimonial files are presented, which place the analysis scheme on the border between family history, historical demography, history of law, history of women, history of the church, rural history, history of feelings. The quality of the sources gives us the opportunity to identify divorce patterns characteristic of a highly individualized region within the Transylvanian area.

Powstańcza działalność Mariana Dubieckiego – sekretarza Rusi w Rządzie Narodowym 1863 roku
The aim of the article is to present the insurgent activity of Marian Dubiecki, secretary of Ruthenia in the Polish National Government of January Uprising. During his tenure, he was one of Romuald Traugutt’s closest collaborators, occupying the outbuilding next to his apartment, and a person who introduced the later dictator at the meeting of The Polish National Government. Dubiecki’s duties included correspondence with other representatives of the insurgent administration and negotiations with the “Progressive Ruthenia Group”. After minister of state Józef Kajetan Janowski left Warsaw, the secretary of Ruthenia undertook action to combine both functions. As a result of his insurgent activity, Marian Dubiecki was arrested and sentenced to exile, from which he returned in 1883. The figure of the secretary of Ruthenia has not yet been the subject of an extensive historiographical research that would comprehensively analyze his biography.

“Bâlciul From Cazarme” in Fometesti Commune, Vâlcea County
History is the most complex part of human existence. Its research can provide a more accurate picture of society as a whole, of the level of culture and civilization. The history of the village of Fometești has not been the subject of a complete work in Romanian historiography. This article seeks to reconstruct an important event in the history of these lands—\"Bâlciul de la Cazarme\"—and constitutes a starting point for further research that will be able to develop, nuance, or refine the information gathered here.

The Village of Fometesti - an Oasis of Life Under the Lid of the Southern Carpathians
This article seeks to compile a history of the village of Fometesti, focusing on the main historical moments recorded in chronicles and documents. The village of Fometesti is located at the foot of Mulți Meridionali, on both sides of the Cerna River. There are not many documents that help in the elaboration of a precise history of this village, but their corroboration with the local tradition transmitted by living speech supports the elaboration of a viable historical course.

Z rozważań nad społeczną i gospodarczą kondycją ziemiaństwa w Królestwie Polskim w okresie postyczniowego dziesięciolecia (1864–1874)
The subject of the article is the issue of widely understood social and economic aspects related to the history of the landed gentry in the Kingdom of Poland in the post-January decade. The adopted border turning points were marked by the failure of the uprising and the introduction of the enfranchisement reform (1864) and the death of governor Fiodor Berg as well as the agricultural exhibition in Warsaw (1874). That decade was a clearly outlined period – important above all in the economic history of the country and in the context of the experiences that the village and the manor households had. Those years were crucial for the gentry as well. The consequences of enfranchisement, in a reality of the brutally suppressed independence uprising and in the atmosphere of post-January terror, brought the end to the era of manor and serf economy. The door was opened for the development of capitalist relations, which combined with a comprehensive reconstruction of the agricultural system, led many estates into ruin and forced many heirs to be declassed. For others, it was a challenge to thoroughly transform and modernize farming methods, which not always resulted in later economic successes. The new deal brought social and mental transformations as well as the rejection of traditional habits and state prejudices, to the agenda. All these interdependent phenomena created a picture that shimmered with different colours, which I think is worth re-drawing in the anniversary year.

Problem epidemii dżumy podczas wyprawy Napoleona do Egiptu w latach 1798–1801
Napoleon’s Egyptian campaign not only led to the discovery of the monuments of the pharaonic state, but also opened a new chapter in medical science. Encounter with many epidemic and endemic diseases has led to rationalization of views on the spread of infections. This was the case, among others, in the case of the plague, epidemics of which often broke out in the Middle East, practically at the gates of Europe. Creating a model of sanitary procedures contributed to reducing the risk.
