Artykuł przedstawia podróże współpracowników i oficjalistów ks. Hieronima Sanguszki na Wołyniu i Ukrainie na przełomie XVIII i XIX w. Odbywali oni regularne wyjazdy w interesach ekonomicznych Sanguszków m.in. do miejscowości Sławuta, Antoniny, Białogródka i Zasław na Wołyniu, Ilińce i Czerkasy na Ukrainie, stolic guberni (Żytomierz, Kijów i Kamienic Podolski), miast handlowych (Berdyczów i Dubno). Najbliżsi współpracownicy ks. Hieronima Sanguszki, jak Antoni Pruszyński i Franciszek Mikoszewski, w sprawach rodzinno-majątkowych Sanguszków wyjeżdżali poza granice Rosji, do Galicji, gdzie ks. Hieronim Sanguszko posiadał kolejnedobra (Tarnów). The article presents the journeys of clerks and administrators of Prince Hieronim Sanguszko in Volhynia and Ukraine at the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries. They travelled to the towns of Sławuta, Antonina, Białogródek and Zasław in Volhynia, Ilińce and Cherkasy in Ukraine, the capitals of the provinces (Żytomierz, Kiev and Kamienic Podolski), and trading cities (Berdyczów and Dubno). The closest associates of Prince Hieronim Sanguszko, such as Antoni Pruszyński and Franciszek Mikoszewski, travelled in the family and property matters of the Sanguszko family outside Russia, to Galicia, where Prince Hieronim Sanguszko owned other estates (Tarnów).

Zbiory rodziny Sanguszków stanowią narodowe dobro kultury. Polski magnacki ród książąt Lubartowiczów-Sanguszków jest jednym z najbardziej znanych i zasłużonych dla polskiej kultury rodów. Losy biblioteki i archiwum książąt Sanguszków były bardzo burzliwe. Po II wojnie światowej zbiory uległy rozproszeniu - część z nich trafiła do Biblioteki Jagiellońskiej. Dopiero na mocy umowy z 2002 roku pomiędzy Biblioteką Jagiellońską a rodziną Sanguszków część zbiorów (w tym rękopisy, inkunabuły i inne druki) stała się własnością Biblioteki. Biblioteka Jagiellońska przyjęła w darze 19 jednostek inwentarzowych rękopisów, których stan zachowania został zbadany metodą opisową. W artykule przedstawiono dane bibliograficzne rękopisów, typ oprawy (gdy istnieje), papieru, rodzaj i stopień uszkodzeń opraw, papieru i bloku rękopisu, a także cechy atramentu. Według stanu zachowania rękopisy zostały podzielone na 5 kategorii. Z ogólnej oceny stanu zachowania wynika, że 7 rękopisów jest w stanie umożliwiającym ich udostępnianie i użytkowanie, natomiast 4 rękopisy wymagają planowych działań konserwatorskich. The book collection of the House of Sanguszko - which is one of the most famous Polish noble families, having a distinguished record of service to the Polish State - is one of Poland's national cultural treasures. Their private library and archive have had a very turbulent history. After World War II the collection was dispersed and some of it found its way to the Jagiellonian Library. It was not until 2002, however, that part of the collection (including manuscripts, incunabula and other old prints) formally became the property of the Library following the signing of an agreement between the Library and the Sanguszko family. The Jagiellonian Library has accepted the donation of nineteen inventory units of manuscripts, whose state of preservation has been analysed using the descriptive method. This article presents bibliographical information concerning each of these manuscripts, i.e. the kind of binding (if any) and paper, the kind and degree of damage to the binding, paper and the body of the manuscript, as well as the characteristics of the ink. All the manuscripts have been divided into five categories, according to their state of preservation. A general evaluation of their condition has shown that seven of the manuscripts can be made available to readers, while four require restoration and conservation.

The article is an analysis of the collective memory of the princely House of Sanguszko between the 15th and 18th centuries. Its aim is to establish the memories shaping this community and bringing it together. The sources on which the article is based comprise mementos of the family’s material and spiritual culture (documents, coats of arms, seals, titles, residences, necropolises, portraits, sermons, chronicles etc.) treated as permanently objectivised carries of family memory (cultural memory). The analysis demonstrates that the House of Sanguszko emerged at the turn of the 16th century and its self-identification was based on an awareness of shared descent from Prince Sanguszko. In the 16th century the House of Sanguszko, divided into three branches (separate families), became integrated around three obligatory memories (figures of memory). First - of Prince Sanguszko, who as the basic element binding the community was commemorated primarily through the patronymic “Sanguszkowicz”. Second - of the lineage encompassing “Dukes of Lithuania”, that is Grand Dukes Algirdas and Gediminas, who as the basic source of prestige and authority (relatives of the Jagiellonians) were recalled primarily through the use of the Pogoń coat of arms. Third - of eminent representatives of the family (especially Hetman Roman Sanguszko) the memory of whom as role models was cultivated in family necropolises. Although the House of Sanguszko was a well-consolidated community, the turn of the 17th century was marked by a crisis of identity caused by Prince Sanguszko sinking into oblivion and the need to emphasise the stature of the family vis-à-vis the social and political transformations following the Union of Lublin. In order to reintegrate the House of Sanguszko, its members introduced the surname "Sanguszko” and carried out a reconstruction of their foundation memory, introducing the figure of a new, worthy progenitor: Algirdas (temporarily) and Liubartas. The memory of descent from the latter was secured by the Sanguszkos on such durable and effective carriers that this vision of the beginnings of the family survived until the 19th century.
